Journey to the West: Sun Wukong's Advice System Chapter 104 The Heritage of the Mang Bull Clan
According to a netizen on Zhihu, the Demon King had entered into a marriage with the Princess using her million-dollar dowry only two years before the pilgrimage team passed by Fla Mountain. How co he’s involved with soone else now?
Moreover, judging by Princess Iron Fan’s reaction, she seed completely unguarded.
Sun Wukong’s alert eyes twinkled, but he had no intention of ddling in others’ affairs; getting involved in dostic issues was not wise.
He then bid farewell and left, as Banana Cave had only a woman at ho, and of course, he wouldn’t enter.
According to Princess Iron Fan, Mount Ji Lei was three thousand miles directly south of Cang Yun Ridge.
He had set off from Cuiyun Mountain, and to get to Mount Ji Lei was a re two thousand five hundred miles. Riding on his cloud, he arrived in no ti.
But halfway there, Sun Wukong stopped.
From afar, he saw the Demon King—horned head, adorned in colorful red ornants and shiny silver armor—clearly heading ho.
"So it’s true, with a new wife, even his armor turns to colorful red," Sun Wukong found this amusing, and he approached, greeting, "Old Brother Ox, long ti no see!"
"Haha, dear brother, how co you didn’t tell in advance, so I could have co to et you?" the Demon King noticed Sun Wukong too, and laughed heartily.
The two t in the air, holding arms and laughing as if delighted.
Suddenly, Sun Wukong said, "Hehe, Brother Ox, aren’t you worried that I might be Six-Ears in disguise?"
The Demon King’s smile stiffened and he replied with a bitter smile, "Even if it were Six-Ears, what could I do? I can’t defeat you, Sun Wukong, nor can I subdue Six-Ears, I might as well play dumb."
Sun Wukong scratched his head and laughed, not revealing any more.
He thought to himself, the Demon King was deceived by Six-Ears before after lending him weapons. At that ti, he had already warned the kings, hinting that the provocateur might be Six-Ears.
It’s hard to tell whether the Demon King had pretended to be oblivious when lending out the weapons.
After all, before they had attacked Six-Ears, the Demon King had already figured out that Six-Ears might be hiding in the land of Beiming, obviously cautious.
With that thought, Sun Wukong directly stated his purpose, "I am here by the command of the Jade Emperor to ask you about a creature nad the Nine-headed Worm who has recently been in close contact with you. Do you know that he is from the Demon Sect?"
Upon hearing the term ’Jade Emperor,’ the Demon King’s expression changed, then he was greatly startled, "What? The Nine-headed Worm is from the Demon Sect?"
Sun Wukong sneered, "If you don’t tell the truth, I’ll take you to the Heavenly Court this instant, to prevent future murderous disasters that could harm your family and turn your vast estate to ashes!"
The Demon King’s expression changed repeatedly before falling silent, then he cupped his fists and bowed to Sun Wukong, saying, "It seems you are indeed wise, brother. Well, I’ll tell you,
this Nine-headed Worm was introduced to by the North Sea Dragon King, and I truly didn’t know he had ties with the Demon Sect."
Light flashed in Sun Wukong’s eyes like arrows, "Hmm? Isn’t the North Sea Dragon King Ao Shun?"
The Demon King quickly explained, "Dear brother, you may not be aware, the North Sea is governed by the North Sea Dragon King Ao Shun, but the land of Beiming is chaotic. This Eternal Dragon King is an old dragon spirit from that area, with considerable connections in all three realms."
"Again the land of Beiming?" Sun Wukong was puzzled; last ti they had surrounded Six-Ears on the island of ice and fire in the land of Beiming, then he asked the Demon King, "Why did he introduce you to the Nine-headed Worm?"
The Demon King hesitated, then still disclosed, "I wouldn’t deceive you, brother. The Nine-headed Worm wanted to make a deal with ,
offering the lost heritage of my Bull Demon clan as a condition to purchase ten Cangyun Blood Spirit Stones from my Bull Demon ancestors, and an Ancient Stele from the hands of the Eternal Fox King of Mount Ji Lei."
So it really is business?
Sun Wukong, seeing that the Demon King did not seem to be lying, was sure there was still sothing hidden, so he asked further. "What is so special about the Cangyun Blood Spirit Stone and the Ancient Stele of the Fox Clan?"
Demon King sighed, "The forr was ford when the founding ancestors of my bovine clan perished, and their innate essence blood was spilt. As for the latter, it is unclear; it seems to be related to a formation,
Just now at Mount Ji Lei, the Eternal Fox King was being evasive, unwilling to speak clearly or to hand over the item,
I was wondering how to make the old fox change his mind when I unexpectedly ran into you, younger brother."
Sun Wukong nodded, that matched up; no wonder Demon King often visited Mount Ji Lei lately.
[Congratulations, you have completed the suggestion — ask Demon King directly and observe his reaction, received a Third-Rank Treasure Box]
The suggestion was completed, but the matter the Martial Emperor wanted him to inquire about was still unclear, and it was still unknown what the demonic cult was planning recently!
Demon King clearly didn’t know, unless this old bull really wanted to be enemies with both the Heavenly Court and the Buddha Sect.
"Hehe, got it!" Sun Wukong’s eyes twinkled, and he had a plan, then he said to Demon King, "Big Brother Bull, would you like to join in a play?"
"What do you an, younger brother?" Demon King, seeing through the intention, imdiately understood what Sun Wukong was planning.
"I’ll transform into the Eternal Fox King and go with you to et the Nine-Headed Bug," Sun Wukong said with a smile. "Perhaps we won’t even need to deal with them to retrieve the legacy lost by your bovine clan!"
Demon King frowned in contemplation, appearing to weigh sothing, and he quickly made a decision, earnestly saying, "Let’s do as you say, younger brother, let’s do it!"
Choosing between the Heavenly Court and the demonic cult wasn’t hard.
Afterward, he first transford into the appearance of the Eternal Fox King to give Sun Wukong a reference. After Sun Wukong transford, he changed back.
"Transform!" With a thought, Sun Wukong turned into an old, white-haired fox elder.
"Younger brother, keep it in check, your deanor is off. The Eternal Fox King is quite wealthy, like a rich old man," Demon King laughed.
"This is simple, quite simple." Sun Wukong chuckled, then his twinkling eyes grew reserved, and leaning on a cane, he truly resembled the million-wealth family’s Eternal Fox King.
"Exactly, too similar!" Demon King exclaid in praise.
Subsequently, the two kings headed straight for the North Sea.
On the way, Sun Wukong did not forget to open the treasure box he had just received.
The higher the rank of the treasure box given by the ’Listening to Advice System,’ the greater the chance to draw out superb rewards.
At present, Sun Wukong didn’t expect anything good from treasure boxes below fourth rank.
[You have opened the Third-Rank Treasure Box, congratulations, you have obtained the bovine clan’s legacy]
"To think it would yield such a treasure!" Sun Wukong was very surprised, thinking this was now secure. Even if this trip didn’t yield the legacy from the Nine-Headed Bug, Demon King wouldn’t return empty-handed.
From the extra mories in his mind, it seed that the bovine clan’s legacy mainly dealt with how to activate the bloodline power of their clan, like the Innate Divine Ability, natural aptitude, etc., all could undergo significant transformation.
If Demon King acquired it, his strength would surely greatly increase.
Although he was thinking this, Sun Wukong did not hand over the legacy to Demon King right now.
One reason was that it was impossible to explain where the legacy ca from; and second, would Demon King still put forth his best effort if he received the legacy?
Following that, the two kings continued northward, crossing the vast North Sea and arriving at the Northern Dark land located at the extre end of the North Sea.
Ahead, the sea area was enveloped by dense fog, and the sea water turned black, resembling a giant beast with its maw wide open, about to swallow everything.
