Chapter 89

~7 min read 1,329 words

Tai Yin Star, primordial space.

When Su Chen slowly opened his eyes, two golden and silver divine lights that pierced through the void flashed and disappeared from his eyes.

He gently exhaled a breath of turbid air, which turned into a tiny wisp of black and white mysterious energy in the air, circling for a moment before slowly dissipating.

Three full years.

In this primordial space of the Tai Yin Star, he had endured pain unimaginable to humans and received returns beyond imagination.

Mystic Immortal!

Feeling the magic power in his body that was countless times stronger than three years ago, and the Hunyuan Jin Dan that was slowly rotating in his dantian, flashing with cyan, red, gold, and silver light, Su Chen was overjoyed.

Yin-Yang power perfected, Fire element and Wood element perfected.

His Jin Dan Dao had already taken a solid step.

Besides this, his physical body had also undergone earth-shattering changes under the repeated tempering of the Tai Yin essence and the True Sun Fire essence.

Although he did not deliberately cultivate it, its toughness had far exceeded the scope of ordinary Heavenly Immortals.

"Time to come out of seclusion."

Su Chen stood up, stretched his muscles and bones, and his whole body made a series of explosions.

He walked out of the array and bowed deeply to the cold figure who had quietly protected him for three years outside the array.

"Many thanks to the Wuqu Wuqu Xingjun for protecting this junior; this great kindness, this junior will never forget."

Chang Xi slowly opened her eyes, her cold gaze falling on Su Chen, examining him carefully.

When she felt the thick magic power of Su Chen's Mystic Immortal realm and his strong physical body that was hidden but not released, even she, this ancient Demon Queen who had seen many storms, couldn't help but flash a trace of surprise in her beautiful eyes.

A short three years, from Human Immortal to Mystic Immortal.

This cultivation speed was simply shocking.

"Your path is very unique." Chang Xi spoke indifferently, her voice still cold, "But because of this, your path ahead is more dangerous than anyone else's. Today you attracted the three disasters together, which is proof. In the future, you must be extremely careful."

She paused and added: "Do not forget your promise to me."

"This junior dares not forget." Su Chen nodded solemnly, "When this junior has sufficient ability, I will surely resolve that cause and effect for the Wuqu Wuqu Xingjun."

"Go." Chang Xi waved her hand, seeming somewhat exhausted.

Su Chen bowed again and turned to leave this deep palace.

Leaving the Tai Yin Star, Su Chen did not stop for a moment, directly drove his auspicious cloud, and flew toward the direction of the Saint Qitian Mansion like lightning.

Three years without seeing him, I don't know how Monkey Brother is doing in the Heavenly Court.

With his jumping temperament, without me watching, I hope he doesn't cause any big trouble.

Su Chen was somewhat worried, and the speed under his feet increased a bit more.

Soon, that magnificent Saint Mansion was in sight.

However, when Su Chen landed in front of the mansion, he found the mansion empty, without a single shadow.

"Zhang De! Li Ming!" Su Chen shouted loudly.

After a long while, the Left Assistant Immortal Official Zhang De and the Right Assistant Immortal Official Li Ming poked their heads out from a side hall.

As soon as they saw Su Chen, they hurriedly ran over.

"Lord Chief Assistant, you have finally come out of seclusion!" the two saluted and shouted.

"What happened? Where is the Great Saint? Where did he go?"

"Reporting to Lord Chief Assistant," Zhang De said respectfully, "The Great Saint was sent by the Jade Emperor to manage the Pantao Zhen Yuanzi!"

"What?!"

Su Chen's brain buzzed, as if struck by lightning.

Manage the Pantao Zhen Yuanzi?

It's over!

Isn't this the beginning of Sun Wukong causing trouble in the Heavenly Palace?

"When did this happen?" Su Chen's voice became incomparably serious.

"Just a few days ago." Li Ming saw Su Chen's reaction was so big and somewhat puzzled, "The Great Saint was bored in the mansion, went out every day to find people to compare martial arts, and offended many immortal lords... Later, the Jade Emperor issued a decree, letting him go manage the Pantao Zhen Yuanzi..."

Su Chen's heart sank.

He knew that Monkey Brother must have been suffocated during the three years he was in seclusion.

The Jade Emperor and that group of people in the Heavenly Court definitely saw this point and set the trap on purpose.

"In which direction is the Pantao Zhen Yuanzi?" Su Chen had no time to listen to their nonsense and asked directly.

Zhang De hurriedly pointed in a direction.

Su Chen didn't say a word, his figure flashed, and he turned into a stream of light, rushing into the sky.

Monkey Brother, you must not be impulsive!

The closer he got to the Pantao Zhen Yuanzi, the more Su Chen's heart pounded.

He could already feel a familiar and violent demon aura rising crazily not far ahead.

Not good!

Su Chen shouted inwardly and accelerated again.

When he rushed into the Pantao Zhen Yuanzi, the scene he saw made his eyes split with anger.

Seven immortal maidens were frozen in place, and Sun Wukong, with red eyes, was raising his Ruyi Jingu Bang and about to smash it toward a Pantao tree.

At that moment, Su Chen roared out:

"Monkey Brother, stop!"

Sun Wukong's movements froze abruptly.

When he turned his head and saw that anxious face, his full anger was temporarily suppressed by him.

"Brother! You finally came out of seclusion!"

Then he pointed to those frozen immortal maidens and said to Su Chen: "Brother, you came just in time. Quick, together with me, eat all these peaches and destroy the peach trees. This group of people in the Heavenly Court actually dared to trick me! They actually dared to look down on me!"

"I will let them know today what is called Saint Qitian!"

Su Chen flashed to Sun Wukong's side and grabbed the arm he was raising the Ruyi Jingu Bang with.

"Monkey Brother, listen to me, don't be impulsive!"

"Do you know that if you strike this staff down, there will truly be no turning back!"

"All of this is their conspiracy, a trap from beginning to end!"

Sun Wukong was at the peak of his rage; how could he listen to persuasion.

He wanted to shake off Su Chen's hand and roared: "Trap? What trap? I only know that they bully people too much. They said I am a lower realm demon immortal who is not qualified to participate in the Pantao Assembly, and said that I, this Saint Qitian, am just a joke!"

"I can't swallow this breath!"

"Brother, don't stop me, today I must overturn this garden!"

"Monkey Brother, calm down!" Su Chen grabbed his arm tightly and said urgently, "The more you are like this, the more you fall into their trap!"

Su Chen knew that he must use the most direct way to wake up this monkey who had already gone to his head.

He analyzed at a very fast speed: "Think carefully, what are you? You are a monkey! What did they let you manage? A peach garden! Is there any logic in the world for letting a monkey manage a peach garden? Isn't it obvious that they want you to make a mistake?"

Sun Wukong's movements paused slightly.

Su Chen's words made his feverish head a little clearer.

"But I didn't steal and eat!" Sun Wukong defended unconvinced, "I managed this garden well."

"Yes!" Su Chen immediately took the words, "Their first strategy was to let you steal from your own post, and then punish you with justification. But you didn't fall for it, so they came up with a second, more ruthless strategy."
