Jie Sect Disciples and strong individuals of the Human Clan all pricked up their ears to listen, even Wuzhiqi listened intently, his chest heaving violently, signifying the turmoil within his heart.
Lord Duobao covertly sized up Bai Jin, wondering how he ca to know these matters. He made a ntal note to seek out the other three monkeys when he had ti.
Golden Peng imdiately asked with curiosity, "Captain, who are the Four Monkey Demons?"
Bai Jin nodded slightly, giving Golden Peng an approving look as he played his part well and said, "The first is the Intelligent Stone Monkey, proficient in Transformation, knows the ti, understands the advantages of the land, and can shift stars and change constellations;
The second is the Red Bottod Horse Monkey, understands yin and yang, is knowledgeable in human affairs, excels in entering and leaving, and can avoid death to prolong life;
The third is the Long Ard Ape Monkey, capable of Grasping the Sun and Moon, Shrinking Thousands of Mountains, Discerning Fortune and Misfortune, and Manipulating the Qiankun;
The fourth is the Six-Eared Macaque, skilled in listening, able to Detect Reasoning, knowing past and future, and sees all things clearly.
These Four Monkeys, do not belong to any of the ten species, nor conform to any dual nas.
I observe that Wuzhiqi here is the Red Bottod Horse Monkey of the Four Monkey Demons, possessing the ability to avoid death and prolong life."
Bai Jin looked at Wuzhiqi and said, "Is there anything inaccurate in what I said?"
Wuzhiqi spoke solemnly, "I indeed possess the abilities to understand yin and yang, be versed in human affairs, excell in entering and leaving, and avoid death to prolong life, but this is the first ti I hear about the Four Monkey Demons; I never knew I had three brothers."
"This is what perplexes ," Bai Jin continued, "the Red Bottod Horse Monkey possesses the ability to avoid death and prolong life, so why did it appear amidst these floods? You even actively opposed the Human Clan’s flood control efforts, do you not realize that such a cause is destined to fail?"
Wuzhiqi twirled his iron rod with a chuckle and said with a strange laugh, "Since you know my abilities, you should realize that this is just my way of avoiding death and prolonging life. Had you not appeared, my plans would’ve succeeded."
Bai Jin suddenly said, "You wish to be suppressed under the Eight Diagrams Dragon Locking Well, to sacrifice your freedom for eternal existence. Is it worth it?"
Wuzhiqi ca to a halt in his actions, falling silent.
The rest of the Jie Sect Disciples and the Human Clan all ca to a sudden realization; no wonder Wuzhiqi kept boasting that he feared nothing but the Dragon-locking Well, yet, he was imdiately seen through and outed by the Saint (Holy Envoy) from the Outer Door, the big brother (Holy Envoy) is aweso!
Everyone looked at Wuzhiqi, astonished that there was even a Demon God who voluntarily sought to be suppressed; indeed, within the vast Primordial World, all oddities exist.
*Cough Cough* A cough akin to distant thunder rose above the roaring floodwaters; Wuzhiqi said gloomily, "Since you know of my plans, would you help out and bring the Eight Diagrams Dragon Locking Well here? I’ve calculated that the feng shui here is quite good."
Bai Jin shook his head and said, "The Dragon-locking Well is a Destiny Divine Artifact of the Human Clan, and cannot be used for your personal protection."
"We shall et again!" Without hesitation, Wuzhiqi turned to leave.
"Wuzhiqi, you’ve injured my Jie Sect Disciples and hindered the Human Clan’s water managent. Do you really think you can just walk away?" Bai Jin’s ethereal voice echoed between Heaven and Earth.
Wuzhiqi paused his steps, twisting his head to look at Bai Jin with a wary tone, "What do you propose?"
With a wave of Bai Jin’s hand, a streak of Jing Guang flashed towards Wuzhiqi, who turned around, crouched, and watched warily; his iron rod trembling with readiness.
The Jing Guang hovered in front of Wuzhiqi, transforming into a small Golden Hoop.
Bai Jin spoke calmly, "This Golden Hoop was forged by my junior brother, Golden Ring Immortal, and can restrain the Primordial Spirit. It is one of the thods the Jie Sect Law Enforcent Team uses to penalize Disciples. You’ve done wrong, and you must accept your punishnt. Since you seek suppression so earnestly, today I shall suppress you within the confines of our Jie Sect."
Wuzhiqi’s eyes lit up, Jie Sect, Saint’s Dojo, to be suppressed there would absolutely be safer than inside the Eight Diagrams Dragon Locking Well.
Lord Duobao communicated through telepathy, "Junior Brother, what are you intending? Can this Golden Hoop restrain a Daluo Golden Immortal?"
"Hmm! It cannot restrain, it’s rely symbolic. He won’t resist."
Wuzhiqi reached out to take the Golden Hoop, slipping it onto his head.
Bai Jin spoke up, "Wuzhiqi, you must think this through. Once this Golden Hoop is on your head, you will be parted from the freedom of the Primordial World, far from love and hatred, and you alone will endure the drabness and suffering."
Wuzhiqi cracked a smile, isn’t this just what I had hoped for? "Hehe~ If I did sothing wrong, I dare to take responsibility."
Wuzhiqi placed the Golden Hoop on his head, and it suddenly expanded to the right size, sitting atop his fuzzy head.
Wuzhiqi swung his iron rod in his hand with a whoosh, and it vanished into thin air, presenting an appearance of ready surrender.
Bai Jin revealed a smile and called out, "Shi Ji!"
Shi Ji flew out from among the Jie Sect Disciples, approaching and called out, "Senior brother!"
Bai Jin instructed, "From now on, Wuzhiqi will be imprisoned on Skull Island under your watch."
Shi Ji, puzzled, asked, "Senior brother, why ?"
"Don’t you think your Skull Island lacks a giant ape?"
Shi Ji shook his head, "No, it doesn’t!"
"Trust your senior brother, I won’t harm you."
Shi Ji pursed her lips, helplessly replied, "Yes!" Then she flew toward Wuzhiqi.
Wuzhiqi glanced at Shi Ji, how weak!
Duobao muttered, "Is that settled just like that?"
Bai Jin nodded, naturally responding, "Yeah! How troubleso could it be."
He said gravely and earnestly, "Senior brother, don’t always think of resorting to fighting and killing when you encounter issues. If you look beyond the surface to the essence, you’ll find that solving them can be very easy, just like with Wuzhiqi."
Wudang Saint nodded and said with a smile, "Junior brother speaks the truth!"
"Senior brother has taken the lesson!" Duobao said with emotion.
The three of them turned and flew off into the distance. Atop a distant hill stood several figures, with Dayu and other Human Clan sages and leaders at the forefront.
Bai Jin, Duobao, and Wudang descended and stood before the crowd.
Dayu and the others quickly bowed in salutation, joyfully saying, "We thank the Holy Envoy, thank the Emperor Master, thank the Fairy."
Duobao lifted a hand and said, "Rise!" A surge of mana lifted everyone to their feet.
Bai Jin directly inquired, "Now with the floods running rampant, what are your plans for water control?"
Dayu replied respectfully, "I plan to carve mountains and dig rivers to divert the floods to the Four Seas. This is the direction of our water control plan, but before this, water monsters have been impeding our efforts, making it impossible to proceed. Now that the Immortals have subdued the water monsters, we can carry on with the water control."
Bai Jin called out, "Where is the Law Enforcent Team?"
Kong Xuan, Golden Peng, Yun Xiao, and Wuyun Immortal flew in and bowed, saying in unison, "Present!"
Bai Jin commanded, "You are to protect Dayu in implenting water control; when the task is complete, it will also count as rit for you."
The four replied in unison, "Yes!"
Dayu called out thankfully, "Many thanks to the Holy Envoy!"
Two days later, Yun Xiao landed in front of a thatched cottage, bowed, and crisply said, "Yun Xiao seeks an audience with the team leader!"
The doors to the thatched cottage opened, and Bai Jin erged from within, asking, "What happened?"
Yun Xiao spoke gravely, "Senior brother, in these past two days, dozens of Human Clan soldiers have been murdered."
