Chapter 396

~16 min read 3,028 words

Sun Wukong's words were few, but the amount of information he exploded with was quite large.

This made Yao Ji scrutinize Gu Qing.

"The little monkey doesn't know any better, he's just calling out for fun."

Gu Qing feigned confusion, walked up, bowed to Yao Ji, and said, "This monkey was manifested by Yang Chan and me together. It is heaven-born and earth-grown, with extraordinary aptitude. I brought it up to heaven and down to earth, obtaining quite a few things, but only for the Heavenly Eye, I need Yao Ji's guidance."

In the mythological world, Sun Wukong and Yang Jian were discussed in every aspect. Among them, the classic argument was that Yang Jian's vertical eye between his eyebrows belonged to the Seventy-Third Transformation, and its configuration was higher than Sun Wukong's.

In this Bao Bao Lian Deng world, the Heavenly Eye was a divine artifact in the Heavenly Court, previously worn by Yao Ji and later passed to Yang Jian. Master Yuding had even said that everyone had a Heavenly Eye, it was just a matter of how to release it... Gu Qing bringing Sun Wukong to Mount Hua was precisely to open the Heavenly Eye for Sun Wukong.

Yao Ji and the Yang family had received great kindness from Gu Qing. At this time, hearing Gu Qing's request, Yao Ji first restrained her thoughts about Yang Chan and walked to the front of Sun Wukong, carefully scrutinizing the monkey before her.

Sun Wukong blinked repeatedly, not saying a word.

"He can indeed open the Heavenly Eye."

Silver brilliance bloomed from the back of Yao Ji's head. Under the illumination of this light, light emitted from the center of Sun Wukong's eyebrows, faintly echoing it.

Gu Qing was on the side, seeing all of this clearly.

With this point of light, Yao Ji retracted her dharma power. While Sun Wukong was gestating the Heavenly Eye, she looked at Gu Qing once more and asked, "We should talk about Chan'er's matter."

When Yao Ji spoke, her heart was heavy. Yang Chan's actual age was still young; it was only to avoid the pursuit of the Heavenly Court that she had been urged to mature. Afterward, they had been together less and apart more. In the blink of an eye, Yang Chan was about to get married.

It was just that Gu Qing did not seem like a good match.

"Mother-in-law, rest assured."

Gu Qing patted his chest and guaranteed, saying, "I will definitely treat her well."

Hearing this, Yao Ji narrowed her eyes.

"Let us young people handle the affairs of us young people."

Gu Qing said pretty words, saying, "Aren't we together resisting the Heavenly Rules precisely for the sake of freedom in love?"

Gu Qing categorized himself as a young person, indicating there was a generation gap with Yao Ji.

"That can't be too free either!"

Yao Ji kept a straight face. At this moment, Yao Ji had a feeling that the Heavenly Rules were protecting female immortals, preventing them from being harmed by someone like Gu Qing!

Yao Ji was a traditional woman.

"Regarding these things, I will discuss them with you next time."

Gu Qing did not chat idly with Yao Ji in this regard. He reached out and picked up Sun Wukong, who had already achieved enlightenment, and said, "Mother-in-law, I am leaving first."

This "mother-in-law" made Yao Ji tremble with fear. Watching Gu Qing and Sun Wukong fly into the sky, she hurriedly called out, letting Yang Jiao and Yang Jian come to her side.

"Hurry, hurry and call your sister back!"

Yao Ji said hurriedly, "Gu Qing wants to cook the raw rice into cooked rice with your sister!"

Once this sentence was out, Yang Jiao and Yang Jian, who had always doted on their sister, were greatly enraged. Yang Jian immediately called the Howling Xiao Tianquan and let it operate secret methods to find Yang Chan.

"Heaven and earth are boundless, ten thousand miles of tracking..."

The Howling Xiao Tianquan operated the dharma method, sniffing longingly into the sky. After a long while, it turned back silently, looked at Yang Jian, and said, "She seems to have used the Bao Bao Lian Deng to shield her scent."

"Third Sister!"

Yang Jian struck his hands in long-lasting hatred, and he and Yang Jiao transformed into two rays of light, one heading to Mount Qianyuan's Jin Guang Cave, the other heading to Mount Kunlun, searching for Yang Chan there to ensure that before Gu Qing could make a move, they would protect Yang Chan completely and bring her back.

"You two, if you meet Gu Qing, just fight! Don't let him have any time to taint your sister!"

Yao Ji was on Mount Hua, so angry that she struck her palms fiercely. At this moment, she wished she could use the Heavenly Rules to protect Yang Chan.

"Hahahaha..."

In the Heavenly Court, the Jade Emperor and the Wang Yuyan saw this scene and laughed out loud, simultaneously transmitting this scene to the various gods of the Heavenly Court, saying, "Look, this is the end of an immortal getting married. You all know now, the Heavenly Rules are ruthless; they are a kind of protection for you!"

When the Jade Emperor was speaking, he looked toward the direction of the female immortals.

Fairy Chang'e's gaze was cold, the Seventh Princess lowered her eyes slightly. Among these female immortals, there was also an Eighth Princess, who was cute, lively, and unconcerned.

"Your Majesty."

The Wang Yuyan said, "Gu Qing is becoming increasingly willful and reckless in the mortal realm."

The Jade Emperor nodded. In the current Heavenly Court, Gu Qing was the number one enemy, but it just so happened that now, even if all the manpower of the Heavenly Court were tied together, they were no match for Gu Qing.

"We must punish him for his crimes!"

The Jade Emperor said coldly.

Hearing this sentence, the Wang Yuyan had a plan in her heart. After the assembly of all the immortals, she whispered to the Jade Emperor, "Your Majesty, we two are both Golden Immortals."

Two Golden Immortals...

Hearing this line, the Jade Emperor's eyes brightened slightly.

The Jade Emperor mastered the Heavenly Rules and held the mandate of heaven in the Three Realms; his word was law. Even the Three Pure Ones, upon seeing the Jade Emperor, had to respectfully call him Your Majesty. He was the number one person among the Golden Immortals, but recently, the Jade Emperor felt like a man reaching middle age, increasingly unable to do what he wanted.

All of this was because of Gu Qing's appearance.

The Jade Emperor had to deal with the entanglements of the various Golden Immortals regarding the Heavenly Rules on one hand, and suppress the Three Realms on the other. This was like ten fingers pressing down on ten fleas, which had him completely pinned down. If he relaxed his strength even a little, it would leave him in a flurry.

Gu Qing's appearance seemed to be just a small crack, but in reality, it had already affected the Jade Emperor's entire situation.

"Gu Qing killed the nine great Golden Crows, which is the greatest damage to the majesty of the Heavenly Court."

The Wang Yuyan said.

The Jade Emperor's gaze was deep as he looked at the Wang Yuyan and said, "We two are two great Golden Immortals; we really shouldn't be this cowardly."

The Wang Yuyan's expression was thoughtful, but she remained silent.

"I will go into seclusion to suppress those ambitious people, and you will temporarily act as the head of the government during this period, fully presiding over the Investiture of the Gods list, and you must ensure that those immortals are all on the list."

The Jade Emperor stated his plan, saying, "During the period you act as the head of the Three Realms government, all disasters will be counted as my own doing."

The Jade Emperor chose to trust the Wang Yuyan.

In the story of the Bao Bao Lian Deng, the Jade Emperor was timid and weak, while the Wang Yuyan struck out everywhere. All of this was because in the prequel, the Jade Emperor's several handlings of affairs had brought disasters to the mortal realm, and he felt that the Wang Yuyan did things in an orderly manner, which was why he chose to delegate power.

At this time, under Gu Qing's pressure, the Jade Emperor chose to go into seclusion, plotting a stage for the Wang Yuyan to display her talents.

The Wang Yuyan looked down at the mortal realm, and a smile gradually appeared on her face.

East Sea.

Gu Qing stood by the side of the East Sea, watching the seawater in the East Sea churning. Suddenly, there was an explosion, and Sun Wukong, holding the Golden-Hooped Rod, flew out of the East Sea Long Gong. At the same time, another ray of golden light came straight toward Gu Qing.

Sun Wukong's eyes rolled around. After seeing Gu Qing signal to him, he turned around, mounted the clouds, and left, leaving this place to Gu Qing.

"Amitabha."

Under this golden light, a monk in white monk's robes, with red lips and white teeth, appeared before Gu Qing.

"This poor monk is Jin Chanzi."

Jin Chanzi put his hands together and addressed Gu Qing.

Gu Qing looked at Jin Chanzi and nodded. In the prequel to the Bao Bao Lian Deng, this person, upon making a move, was on par with Yang Jian. When Yang Jian wanted to strike into the Heavenly Court, because of Jin Chanzi, Yang Jian accepted mediation, and the two's clash of waves even led to Sun Wukong's birth.

"What are you looking for me for?"

Gu Qing asked in confusion. "This poor monk came for the sake of fate."

Jin Chanzi was expressionless, his gaze looking in the direction Sun Wukong had left in the sky, and said, "He and I have the fate of master and disciple, and he can also help me achieve the Dao."

The Tang Seng in this Bao Bao Lian Deng was not only able to fight but could also foresee; like the Tang Seng in the sequel to Journey to the West, he was a ruthless character.

In the prequel to the Bao Bao Lian Deng, Jin Chanzi clashed with Yang Jian, leading to Sun Wukong's birth. Marshal Tianpeng and General Juan Lian came here to protect them. Jin Chanzi looked at the two of them and determined that there was a fate of master and disciple. His binding with Sun Wukong was also like this; at a glance, he saw that this was the person who would help him achieve the Dao.

Gu Qing yawned, too lazy to pay attention to Jin Chanzi, and said, "This Sun Wukong is a disciple I cultivated with great difficulty. How can I let him go just because of your words?"

"Fate dictates it; no one can resist it."

Jin Chanzi said as a matter of course, as if everything were an absolute truth that could not be defied.

Gu Qing did not argue with Jin Chanzi in this regard, but instead asked, "Isn't the West currently in deep cultivation? Why did you run out?"

Gu Qing, who knew the plot, naturally knew the reason, but only by asking could he develop the subsequent topic.

"When the Buddha Tathagata was lecturing on the scriptures, he suddenly held up a flower. Venerable Kasyapa saw this and smiled. Except for the Buddha Tathagata and Venerable Kasyapa, no one else understood. I was quite unconvinced, so I sought Kasyapa several times to ask for the meaning of the scripture, but Venerable Kasyapa never said it. Finally, in a fit of anger, I ran out of Lingshan."

Jin Chanzi said, "I will wait until I have realized the great principle of holding a flower and smiling before returning to Lingshan for cultivation."

"Good, very confident."

Gu Qing patted Jin Chanzi on the shoulder and said, "But I feel you won't be able to realize it."

Jin Chanzi kept a straight face, feeling that this smile was a bit excessive.

"Boom boom boom!!!"

The surface of the East Sea exploded repeatedly. A dragon flew out from the water. After circling a few times, it landed beside Gu Qing and asked, "Did you see that monkey just now?"

The person speaking was the Fourth Princess of the East Sea, Ao Tingxin, who was also the one who would be stabbed to death by Yang Jian in the future, have her corpse sealed, and finally be resurrected.

This person would also be one of the best friends of the Third Holy Mother, Yang Chan, in the future.

Originally, the two had interactions when Nezha incarnated as the Jade Emperor and beat up the Long Wang, but because of Gu Qing, the two did not know each other yet.

"Didn't see it."

Gu Qing shook his head repeatedly, looking at Ao Tingxin's furious appearance, and incidentally asked, "What happened to him?"

"I am unmarried, and he came to the Long Gong and called out 'mommy' randomly."

Ao Tingxin said furiously. Compared to the loss of the Sea-Stabilizing Needle, Ao Tingxin cared more about her reputation.

After all, the Sea-Stabilizing Needle was something she couldn't get back with her own strength.

"This matter is indeed wrong."

Gu Qing played the good guy here.

In the East Sea, two more dragons jumped out. After circling once, they landed by the side of the East Sea and immediately transformed into human form. They were a man and a woman. After Gu Qing saw the woman's appearance, he hurriedly turned his face away.

It wasn't because the dragon girl was ugly, but because the dragon girl was too unlucky.

This woman was precisely Yang Jian's wife in the prequel to the Bao Bao Lian Deng, Ao Cunxin.

In the prequel to the Bao Bao Lian Deng, Yang Jian could have had it less bitter, but he just happened to run into a wife like Ao Cunxin. As a result, they quarreled on their wedding night, scolded the Third Holy Mother out of the house, caused Yang Jian to separate from his brothers, and even because of the husband-and-wife quarrel, it was made into a report by the Kitchen God, which contained extreme mockery of Yang Jian and his wife, making Yang Jian's family the laughingstock of the Three Realms.

Someone like this, Gu Qing kept at a distance as soon as he saw her.

"Did that monkey call her mommy?"

Gu Qing asked Ao Tingxin.

Ao Tingxin shook her head and said, "That monkey was fast; he was aiming for the Sea-Stabilizing Needle Iron, and he only called out to me on the way."

That's good!

Gu Qing nodded secretly; he didn't want to have any entanglements with Cunxin.

"This young master."

Jin Chanzi looked at the man beside Ao Cunxin at this time, and after hesitating, said, "We two should have fate."

This man was the Third Prince of the West Sea Long Wang. At this time, hearing Jin Chanzi's greeting, he asked, "What fate do we two have?"

"The fate of master and disciple."

Gu Qing was on the side putting eye drops on Tang Seng, saying, "Before, he wanted to take that monkey as a disciple."

"Take a monkey as a disciple?"

"A monkey?"

Ao Cunxin and Ao Tingxin were both surprised, looking at Jin Chanzi as if asking him if he was sober.

Jin Chanzi smiled and said to the Third Prince, "Sorry, Third Prince, my disciples are already full. I am now taking a mount."

"Stinking bald donkey!"

The Third Prince was enraged upon hearing this, drew his sword directly, and stabbed toward Jin Chanzi.

Jin Chanzi's protective golden light flashed, and he shed his cicada shell at this moment, flying away directly.

Seeing this, the Third Prince rose and flew, hurriedly chasing, but after only a few turns through the clouds and mist, the Third Prince could no longer find the other's trace.

"You still need to practice."

Gu Qing comforted the Third Prince, saying, "Your speed is so slow, how can you be someone's mount?"

The White Dragon was enraged upon hearing this and charged toward Gu Qing. At this moment, Gu Qing also transformed into golden light, turned two or three times, and disappeared before the three dragons.

"I'm so angry!"

These three dragons gathered together, greatly enraged.

Guanjiang Mouth, Yang Mansion.

Gu Qing traveled by escape light all the way. When he returned to the Yang Mansion, it had already been cleaned inside and out. Gu Qing walked into the room and saw Yang Chan copying calligraphy by the window.

"It's truly strange."

Gu Qing walked leisurely behind Yang Chan, reached out to circle Yang Chan's waist, and said, "Your eldest brother and second brother have been searching everywhere; they should have come to Guanjiang Mouth to look."

This Guanjiang Mouth Yang Mansion was the foundation of the Yang family, a place that even Weak Water, the embodiment of emotion, could not bear to drown during the Weak Water disaster.

"Not strange."

Yang Chan reached out and waved the Bao Bao Lian Deng. In the flames, Sun Wukong was shown leaping back and forth in the clouds, occasionally transforming into Yang Chan's appearance, disrupting the judgment of Yang Jiao and Yang Jian, causing them to delay in finding the Yang family.

"Then let's hurry..."

Gu Qing kissed Yang Chan lightly and began to untie her clothes with clumsy hands.

Yang Chan turned her head, gave Gu Qing a hateful elbow, and said, "Do you really want my mother to beat me to death?"

With such a big disturbance, for the two of them to continue doing this, Yang Chan wouldn't be acting like a person.

"Then let me..."

The Seventh Princess descended gracefully, her gaze crystal clear. Looking at Gu Qing and Yang Chan, she said, "Cousin, will you give this opportunity to me?"

Having heard about cooking the raw rice into cooked rice in the Heavenly Court, she was very moved.
