"Oh no! This outfit is really ugly."
"Ah, here cos the monkey."
"What's it doing?"
"Oh, it's just resting. You better not stop now, keep moving or you'll be caught and cooked!"
"Is it done resting? Right, right, right, hurry and run for your life."
"Ah? Why has it stopped again?"
"No, no, no! Hey, hey, hey, don't co over!"
"￥#...￥#%￥&%￥"
"Ouch, you damned monkey!"
...
Lu Qingfeng watched the monkey approach, found it amusing, and couldn't help but chuckle.
This amused him greatly.
The result was imdiate retribution.
Transford into a bamboo cane, he was cut and stripped, ending up in the monkey's hand.
The eminent Qingjing Saint and Immortal Emperor Guang Yuan had now beco a bamboo cane, used by the monkey as a walking stick.
Part of him was infuriated.
Part of him found it amusing.
Luckily, he reacted quickly. Seeing that he couldn't drive the monkey away or resist it, he retracted his roots, branches, and all his essence into his trunk.
Becoming a bamboo cane didn't hinder his cultivation.
But, having not yet transford, he feared he might endure decades of 'humiliation' under the monkey's grip.
"Let it be!"
"After all, it's only a few decades."
Lu Qingfeng took it in stride.
He continued his cultivation, whilst being unknowingly carried by the monkey to who-knows-where.
The Gold and Silver Mountain was occupied by Demon Kings, with many greater and lesser demons. The monkey, moving amidst them, attracted the attention of a group of lesser demons.
"Where did this monkey co from?"
"Quick, catch it!"
Before attaining enlightennt, the Gold and Silver Kings were once a Gold and Silver Rat, often bullied by the mountain monkeys. After finally achieving enlightennt through arduous hiding and evasion,
Their first act was to slaughter all the mountain monkeys thoroughly.
After becoming the Demon King, they forbade any monkeys from appearing in the mountains; their subordinate demons, upon spotting one, would capture and cook it.
Having spent decades on the Gold and Silver Mountain, Lu Qingfeng was well aware of this.
When the monkey saw the lesser demons fully ard, it fled in fright.
"Run!"
"Run fast!"
Lu Qingfeng, carried in its hand, didn't judge the monkey, but instead encouraged the little monkey to keep going.
He thought to himself: "Gold and Silver King, oh Gold and Silver King, there are so many other creatures to kill, why target monkeys? No wonder you will eventually die by the hand of a demon monkey."
Watching the relentless pursuit of the lesser demons and looking towards the depths of the Gold and Silver Mountain, Lu Qingfeng shook his head.
His presence at Gold and Silver Mountain was precisely to seek out the body of the Gold and Silver King.
During the Western Tour period,
Qin Zhen happened to be cultivating near the Gold and Silver Mountain.
One day,
He personally witnessed a demon monkey appear out of nowhere and kill the Gold and Silver King. Taking advantage of the demon monkey's departure, Qin Zhen quietly took the body, burying it in the Divine Tomb and erecting a monunt.
Lu Qingfeng was here specifically because of the 'body of the Gold and Silver King.'
He naturally knew the fate of the Gold and Silver King.
Despite how lively things seed now, eventually, everything must be repaid.
He shook his head.
With a shake and a bounce,
"Ha ha!"
"Can't catch , eh?"
This little monkey might not look like much, but it was truly swift when running.
Holding the bamboo cane, it dashed through the woods like the wind. So lesser demons with a bit of mana couldn't keep up and the monkey managed to escape from the Gold and Silver Mountain.
"Huff, huff, huff!"
"That scared to death!"
The little monkey was utterly exhausted and terrified. Even after leaving Gold and Silver Mountain, it ran a great distance before stopping to catch its breath heavily.
While patting its chest in lingering fear, it was both angry and resentful: "Fine! I'll let you off for today, but once I find an Immortal and learn the secret to eternal life, avoiding King Yama's clutches, I'll co back and give those killers a good lesson—let you all see just how formidable I, the Monkey King, am!"
Lu Qingfeng, upon hearing the monkey speak human language, was astounded.
Suddenly, hearing its subsequent words, he froze in shock: "Monkey King?!"
Listening to the monkey incessantly cursing, although Lu Qingfeng had taken on the form of a bamboo cane, he still involuntarily swallowed his saliva: "Could it be the one from Huaguo Mountain?!"
His mind stirred.
But Lu Qingfeng felt it was impossible: "How can there be such a coincidence!"
The Earth Immortal World was enormous.
Huaguo Mountain was in the Eastern Continent, Three Star Cave in the Western Continent, yet he was currently in the Nan Zhanbu Continent.
The distance was more than millions of miles.
It is not that easy to co across each other.
As he thought this, Lu Qingfeng still decided to be cautious, aiming to achieve human transformation sooner and stay far away from this monkey to avoid any unnecessary misunderstanding in case it really was a coincidence.
He had co here to earnestly cultivate.
Arriving during the Western Tour period, because during this ti the Three Realms focused on the journey West, he chose this place for his cultivation, so as to avoid attention.
Moreover,
in the Divine Tomb, aside from the four weasel spirits' corpses taken by Huang i's disciple, there were also many other corpses of Immortal Gods and Demons from the Western Tour period.
But among them, either they were killed by the Great Saint, or they were demons from the Western and Eastern Continents which were close to the Western Tour's path.
Lu Qingfeng had specifically chosen one of the farthest, which was why he chose Gold and Silver Mountain in the Nan Zhanbu Continent.
"It must be just a coincidence of nas."
Lu Qingfeng thought.
Thinking of the tombstones of the weasel spirits and others, where Qin Zhen had specifically ntioned they were killed by the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, it seed that Qin Zhen should recognize the Great Sage Equalling Heaven.
However, the tombstone of the Gold and Silver Kings said they were killed by so unknown demon monkey.
"It really seems to be a coincidence."
Thinking this,
Lu Qingfeng felt certain again and relaxed: "In this world, besides that Monkey King, there are also many spiritual monkeys who have awakened their hearts and seek Immortality and longevity."
Humans are the most intelligent, but these monkey-like beings are also extraordinarily quick-witted.
Lu Qingfeng didn't think further.
However, he paid a bit more attention to this monkey.
The monkey dared not rest too long and continued forward.
Not far along, it encountered several woodcutters.
Its eyes lit up, it hurriedly walked up, bowed and saluted in a funny manner that made people laugh, but the monkey was serious and asked the curious woodcutters: "Uncle, do you know if there are any Immortals on these mountains nearby?"
"A talking monkey?"
The woodcutters, seeing this novelty, weren't afraid but shook their heads: "There are no Immortals on these mountains, but behind you in the mountains, there are many demons. They don't eat humans, only monkey heads and brains. You, a monkey with awakened intelligence, how dare you linger here? Better flee quickly!"
After all, they were simple mountain folk.
The woodcutters, kindly responding to the monkey, also warned it kindly.
"Demons?"
"Eat monkey heads and brains?"
Upon hearing this, recalling the small demons that had just chased it for no reason, the monkey beca both angry and startled: "I knew it. It was just a path lending, why be so petty? Turns out they wanted to eat ."
Though furious,
heeding the woodcutter's words, it dared not stay long in this place.
"Thank you, uncle."
"I will leave now."
Bowing to the woodcutter again, the monkey thanked him.
Then, grabbing the bamboo cane in one hand, it reached into its chest with the other hand, pulled out a juicy peach, and handed it to the woodcutter with a grin: "Uncle, try this. The peach is sweet."
Not waiting for the woodcutter to speak,
it bounced away and disappeared.
"This monkey, quite aware and sensible."
Lu Qingfeng, watching vividly, grew fond of the monkey.
But not for long.
Whether enraged or frightened, the monkey ran wildly, brandishing the bamboo cane and endlessly muttering, "They actually want to eat ! They actually want to eat ! Humph, sooner or later I will wipe them out!"
Lu Qingfeng felt dizzy.
Any prior fondness disappeared, and he inwardly cursed: "You wily monkey, once I achieve my Immortal form, I will surely teach you a lesson!"
