Chapter 644
Immortal King?
I've become an Immortal King!
Sun Wukong was overjoyed.
Although he had no idea what rank the Immortal King was, just hearing it sounded domineering — it was certainly no small office.
"Many thanks, Dao Lord! Many thanks, Dao Lord!" Sun Wukong thanked him repeatedly. "Dao Lord, I wonder what rank the Central Realm Immortal King is, and what affairs does he oversee?"
Zhang Taixuan deliberated: "Well, of course it's the highest office in the First Layer of the Immortal Realm, equivalent to the Jade Emperor. However, you understand your own temperament — if I were to let you manage an entire layer of the Immortal Realm, I'm afraid it would be beyond your abilities. In the future, many matters will still have to be handled by other immortal officials."
Hearing this, Sun Wukong was not in the slightest unhappy about being a mascot; on the contrary, he was so delighted he danced for joy.
He didn't ask for much.
As long as the rank was high, that was enough!
As for whether he actually had to handle affairs, he couldn't care less.
"What the Dao Lord says is right — leave the work to others, and I'll just be the highest-ranking official."
The monkey excitedly mounted his cloud and rushed toward the Tianmen of the First Layer of the Immortal Realm, hurrying off to see the immortal realm under his jurisdiction.
Entering the First Layer of the Immortal Realm, Sun Wukong rode his cloud for half a day, yet could not see the horizon, and could not help but stop.
"Such a vast stretch of heaven and earth, all under my command?" Sun Wukong was so excited he scratched his ears and cheeks. "The Dao Lord is truly righteous and generous — not like the Jade Emperor, so stingy. No, I must learn a thing or two from now on; I can't let this place be managed too chaotically and waste the Dao Lord's good intentions."
