Chapter 1777: Having witnessed the malice of society

~4 min read 667 words

Therefore, the moment Sun Wukong, the senior disciple of Marshal Tianpeng, broke free, Marshal Tianpeng had already prepared for a breakout.

The two demon kings, Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao, were completely bewildered by the sudden appearance of Marshal Tianpeng; after all, the two of them had never expected that their own subordinates could have been infiltrated by the enemy.

One could only say that this society was too complex; Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao, these two "academic" types, had witnessed the malice of society the moment they stepped out.

By the time Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao were ready to strike again, Sun Wukong and Marshal Tianpeng had already flown out of the Lotus Cave long ago.

After exiting the Lotus Cave, Sun Wukong stopped, then looked at Marshal Tianpeng behind him and asked:

"Bajie, the Master and the others, they weren't captured by these two demons, were they?"

Marshal Tianpeng, upon hearing this, said with a smile:

"Monkey Brother, what are you saying? Our Master is doing just fine. The White Dragon Watching Ao Lie is incredibly fast; he took the Master and disappeared into Mount Pingding in the blink of an eye."

"That Yin Jiao tried to chase after the White Dragon Watching Ao Lie, overestimating his own abilities, and naturally returned empty-handed. Right now, the Master and the White Dragon Watching Ao Lie are waiting for us over at Mount Wanzi."

Hearing this, the biggest stone in Sun Wukong's heart was finally set down.

If there is one thing that worries Sun Wukong the most, it is that after losing his powerful combat strength, he fears that Marshal Tianpeng and the others will be unable to protect the safety of their master, Tang Seng.

Fortunately, the situation at hand had not developed to the most dangerous point.

"Since that's the case, let's hurry and reunite with the Master, and then we can discuss how to deal with these two demons of Mount Pingding."

Sun Wukong's thoughts were not as complex as those of Marshal Tianpeng and General Juan Lian; after all, Sun Wukong had not suffered at the hands of the Samadhi True Fire.

Therefore, Sun Wukong had no desire for revenge against the two demons, Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao.

However, Marshal Tianpeng did not think so. If Marshal Tianpeng could not make Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao pay, he would have no way to soothe the anger in his heart. Thus, Marshal Tianpeng directly rejected the proposal of his senior disciple, Sun Wukong.

"Hey, Monkey Brother, no rush, no rush. We don't need to reunite with the Master right now."

"For the moment, we just need to wait here. I already had Old Sha go off to fetch reinforcements."

Facing such a situation, Sun Wukong suddenly realized that there must be some hidden story behind this.

But, they were all brothers, so Sun Wukong did not probe further. Instead, he found a place to rest, using this to show his stance.

Marshal Tianpeng, seeing his senior disciple being so cooperative, felt a warmth in his heart, and then whispered into Sun Wukong's ear:

"Senior Brother, I won't hide it from you. These two demons were sent down by Taishang Laojun of the Heavenly Court."

"Originally, if there were nothing else, in the spirit of 'you be good, I'll be good, everyone's good,' we would have just put on a simple act with these two demons."

"When the time came, we would let the Heavenly Court people come to support us, capture them, and we would pass this tribulation. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

"Unfortunately, these two demons don't understand the ways of the world and insisted on embarrassing you, Senior Brother, as well as me and Old Sha. Then don't blame us for being heartless."

"As for reinforcements from the Heavenly Court, I never considered them. After all, once the Heavenly Court's reinforcements arrive, wouldn't they just take the two of them away after a bit of fighting?" ===== CHAPTER 1779 =====
