Chapter 1442

This dark history was on par with the Jade Emperor and Tathagata.

Sun Zizai himself was also very ashamed; he stepped forward and said respectfully: "I beg Master to punish me."

"Enough, enough, enough!" Bodhi waved his hand. "Today you have obtained your freedom; it is a day of great joy. To speak of punishment now would be somewhat unreasonable. Besides, for you to have cultivated to your current level in the body of a puppet, your talent and temperament are enough to shock the Three Realms. Having a disciple like you, I cannot say I have lost out. It is only that Six-Ears, sigh, as always, his temperament is impetuous; he is difficult to entrust with great responsibilities."

Sun Zizai was surprised: "Did Master know of Junior Brother's outcome today in the past?"

Bodhi shook his head: "With such manic behavior, how could he not meet with disaster? Look at us; even after becoming Quasi-Saints, we are not as arrogant as he is. At the Taiyi realm, he dared to be lawless. Even without anyone plotting against him, how could he guarantee his own safety?"

Sun Zizai nodded and sighed: "Junior Brother also stayed in the mortal realm for too long, accustomed to the 'might makes right' of demons. Thus, his Dao nature did not sprout. I hope that after today, he can turn back from his misguided path."

Bodhi shook his head lightly: "Difficult, difficult, difficult. Six-Ears is good at listening, hence he knows the affairs of the world. It is precisely because of this that the cruelty of heaven and earth is like a brand upon his heart, impossible to forget. With such a state of mind, wanting peace is extremely difficult."

Sun Zizai was astonished: "Junior Brother is so irritable; it turns out there is also a reason related to his talent?"

"Naturally." Bodhi nodded, his gaze falling on Sun Zizai. "Your indifferent temperament also has a great deal to do with your own origins."

Earth Immortal World.

The Six-Ears Macaque was currently in a state of panic when he saw two people appear in the void.

Tang Xuanzang hurriedly stepped forward to pay his respects: "Tang Xuanzang pays respects to the Exalted Immortal."

Zhu Bajie, Sha Seng, and the White Dragon Horse saw this, realized what was happening, and hurriedly stepped forward.

"We pay our respects to the Exalted Immortal."

Zhang Taixuan smiled: "Rise."

His gaze fell upon Xuanzang.

"I truly did not expect that the Xuanzang of this world would also have such a personality, actually daring to tamper with the true scriptures and compile his own one-sided views."

Tang Xuanzang felt somewhat awkward.

Although practitioners emphasize that the victor is the king and the loser is the bandit.

Tampering with the true scriptures was something very worthy of showing off in the eyes of other practitioners.

However, being pointed out to his face by a supreme existence still made Tang Xuanzang feel that he could not hold his head up.

When all is said and done, Tang Xuanzang originated from the Great Tang and had been constrained by Great Tang morality since childhood; his sense of morality was still very high.

"There is someone who wishes to see you; perhaps you two have much to say."

With a thought, a traversal portal appeared.

The next moment, a white-clad man with an unrestrained and arrogant aura stepped out from it.

As soon as Tang Xuanzang saw him, he immediately frowned: "You have the aura of a Golden Cicada on you! Who are you?"

As far as he knew, the heaven-and-earth exotic insect, the Golden Cicada, had long since disappeared without a trace.

He did not expect that there would actually be one before him that had attained the Dao.

"I am Golden Cicada." Golden Cicada smiled. "However, I am not from your world. Fellow Daoist, why don't we have a chat?"

Tang Xuanzang nodded lightly: "Very well."

Tang Seng put away his Three Corpses incarnation and left directly with Golden Cicada.

"My disciples, we shall meet again in the Great Tang."

Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng were speechless.

They did not expect that their master would run away at the first opportunity, leaving them at the scene.

The person before them was the terrifying existence who had beaten Lingshan into collapse and beaten Tathagata into extinction.

Are you not worried that your disciples will be casually wiped out by this person?

Their moods were complex, but Zhang Taixuan's thoughts were not on them; his gaze fell upon the dejected Six-Ears.

Six-Ears was somewhat fearful, yet also very aggrieved.

He did not expect that after being plotted against, someone would actually come knocking on his door.

He looked toward Sun Wukong and bared his teeth.

Sun Wukong snorted: "Master, this brat is so arrogant; why don't I just send him into extinction?"

"Great Sage, wait, I beg you to spare my Junior Brother's life."

Just at this moment, a streak of light descended and revealed its form on the spot; it was none other than Sun Zizai.

Sun Wukong was speechless: "Could it be that you have developed feelings for him? You must know, he plotted against you quite a few times."

Sun Zizai shook his head: "Did I not also fail to interact with others with sincerity? Why blame Junior Brother for plotting? Now that I have regained my freedom and obtained a new life, why not give Junior Brother a chance so that he can have an opportunity to start over?"

Six-Ears had originally thought that he was a dead man.

He did not expect that his overly sentimental Senior Brother would actually appear.

His Senior Brother was still the same as always, without the slightest demeanor of a great demon, without the arrogance of an immortal, humble, peaceful, and compassionate.

In the past, he had despised him greatly.

At this moment, he felt that Sun Zizai's image had become tall and imposing.

All the events of the past flashed through his heart, causing his eyes to brim with tears.

"So Senior Brother had already tried to persuade me so many times!"

"If I had truly believed Senior Brother's words back then, been content with the Taiyi realm, and lived freely, would he have walked the Journey to the West path himself and replaced the current me?"

"When we first met, although Senior Brother did not tell me his secrets, he had already let me choose many times! Yet I was afraid he would steal my benefits, and thus, I did not understand Senior Brother's painstaking efforts."

At this moment, he finally understood that Senior Brother had only been concealing things from beginning to end, not plotting against him.

It was just that, hindered by his status, he had not revealed the truth.

And he himself had been obsessed with the utilitarianism of the Journey to the West, obsessed and unrepentant. ===== CHAPTER 1443 =====
