Chapter 436: Chapter 436 We Don’t Lack Allies (First Update!)
“Don’t be nervous, it’s , old Sun!”
Wukong walked up to Leng Xuan and sat down on the bamboo couch opposite him, “Speak up!”
“Speak about what?”
Leng Xuan was stunned.
“Talk about what’s on your mind! What exactly is bothering you to the point where you’re so distracted and listless? Don’t deny it, others may not see it, but old Sun can see it clear as day!”
Wukong and Leng Xuan could be said to be old acquaintances. The developnt of Flower-Fruit Mountain to its current level, aside from Wukong’s aggressive advancent and continuous provision of various resources, was inseparable from Leng Xuan’s efforts and capabilities. Wukong was only responsible for providing resources, but all decisions on their allocation and arrangent were made by Leng Xuan; Wukong knew all too well what kind of person Leng Xuan was!
...
If there weren’t any troubling issues, he would not have been so silent and withdrawn in the earlier situation!
“There’s really nothing…”
“If you don’t speak up, old Sun is going to get angry! Leng Xuan, we’re like brothers, aren’t we? Is there still sothing you need to hide from old Sun?”
Wukong frowned, saying sowhat displeased.
“All right!”
After a mont of silence, Leng Xuan sighed and said, “Big brother, I won’t hide it from you; I indeed have sothing on my mind, and it’s about our Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan.”
“The Celestial Fox Clan?”
Wukong rembered, when Leng Xuan first ca to Flower-Fruit Mountain, he had told him of his origins; he had spent his early years wandering about, rely seeking a way to gain the recognition of the elders of the Fox Clan, to fully clear his mother’s na of injustice.
“What’s up with the Fox Clan, have they been troubling you? Leng Xuan, just speak up. If they are really troubling you, old Sun and all of Flower-Fruit Mountain have got your back!”
Wukong’s expression was serious. He had promised Leng Xuan that one day he would help Leng Xuan return to the Fox Clan honorably, to make the people of the Fox Clan feel ashad and remorseful for their wrongful treatnt of Leng Xuan’s mother in the past. He had always kept that promise in his heart. In the past, it could be said that he lacked the power, but now it was different; he believed that with his current strength and the foundation of Flower-Fruit Mountain, he already had enough support to back Leng Xuan!
“Big brother, thank you!”
Leng Xuan’s eyes turned slightly red as he looked at Wukong, his voice choking up a bit.
“There, there, no need for thanks between us, it’s too formal!”
Wukong waved his hand, “Co on, what exactly is it about the Fox Clan that’s got you so flustered?”
“I, I received an alliance proposal from the Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe…”
“An alliance proposal?”
Sun Wukong’s eyebrows lifted, “The Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe wants to form an alliance with us at Flower-Fruit Mountain? That’s great news! Haven’t you always wanted to win the approval of those Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe elders and clear your mother’s na? This is the perfect opportunity! What’s there to be anxious about?”
“They do want to form an alliance with Flower-Fruit Mountain, but it’s not them coming to Flower-Fruit Mountain; they want to go to Qingqiu…”
“What?”
Sun Wukong’s eyebrows suddenly shot up as he glared, “They want us to go to Qingqiu to form an alliance? That’s quite the attitude, quite the presumption!”
Sun Wukong was truly annoyed, thinking to himself, these Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe elders are truly audacious, with their loftiness! It was Flower-Fruit Mountain that fought off the million-strong Heavenly Army and a host of Immortals and Gods from the Heavenly Court, and now they want to ally with Flower-Fruit Mountain. Not only do they not humble themselves, but they also take such a high-handed approach, acting as if they are the center of the universe!
“Leng Xuan, you are no longer the outcast of the Fox Clan who used to be scorned everywhere. You are now the Grand Steward of Flower-Fruit Mountain, and you must have your own dignity and courage! If those Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe guys want to form an alliance, fine! Let them bring their sincerity and co to Flower-Fruit Mountain themselves to negotiate. Otherwise, they can go back where they ca from. Flower-Fruit Mountain doesn’t lack such an ally!”
Sun Wukong spoke firmly, and seeing Leng Xuan still hesitating, he frowned and said, “Leng Xuan, so people are always pushing their luck. If you want to clear your mother’s false charges and gain recognition and respect from the Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe, you must maintain your own stance, understand?”
“I understand now, Boss!”
The confusion in Leng Xuan’s eyes disappeared, and he nodded thoughtfully, “Don’t worry, I know how to reply to them!”
“That’s the spirit! I’ll say it again, I, Sun Wukong, and Flower-Fruit Mountain, will always have your back! Say whatever you want to say, do whatever you want to do, without reservation!”
After being inspired by Sun Wukong, the confusion in Leng Xuan’s heart disappeared, and he firmly rejected the Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe’s ssenger, essentially echoing Sun Wukong’s words: if you want to ally, co with sincerity to Flower-Fruit Mountain, otherwise, there’s no need for discussion!
The Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe’s ssenger was both angry and frustrated by Leng Xuan’s change of attitude, but dared not show it. Leng Xuan was no longer the outcast that the Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe refused to acknowledge; he was the Grand Steward of Flower-Fruit Mountain, with a Cultivation that had reached the Quasi-Saint Realm. If they dared to say anything unpleasant, it wouldn’t just be an alliance being off the table; they probably wouldn’t even be able to leave Flower-Fruit Mountain!
“Grand Steward Leng, you need to think this through. The elders of our tribe will absolutely not co to Flower-Fruit Mountain! Miss this chance, and you may never have the opportunity to return to the tribe!”
Feeling utterly discontented, the ssenger of the Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe ultimately couldn’t help but snort coldly and threaten. He knew that what Leng Xuan had been longing for was to return to the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, and using this to threaten him was most effective.
Sure enough, Leng Xuan’s face changed at his words, struggling on his expression, and just as he was unsure of what to say, Sun Wukong’s voice rang out from the side, “If he doesn’t return, then he doesn’t! Leng Xuan is the Grand Steward of my Flower-Fruit Mountain; in the future, when I build the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court, he will be one of the Five Directional Great Emperors. A minor Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Tribe? It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t return!”
“Great Sage Equalling Heaven?”
The ssenger of the Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe’s heart tightened. Sun Wukong’s reputation was now known to everyone in the Three Realms, soone who could stand against the Tathagata Buddha and even use the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation to sever one of Tathagata Buddha’s arms—there was probably no second person capable of such feats in the Three Realms. If soone else had made such a statent, the ssenger might have scoffed, but with Sun Wukong saying it, the ssenger could do nothing but offer a dry laugh, not daring to let out even a fart!
“Go back and tell those elders of the Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe, if they want to form an alliance with Flower-Fruit Mountain, fine, co with your sincerity! Also, Leng Xuan was long expelled by your Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe, he is now the Grand Steward of my Flower-Fruit Mountain, and your so-called clan rules don’t apply to him! Whether or not we eventually form an alliance with your Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe, depends entirely on Leng Xuan’s response! In any case, we’re not short of allies!”
