Chapter 1793: Developing into this state

~4 min read 681 words

"However, you two are no longer children. Mother cannot protect you for a lifetime, especially regarding matters as deep as these waters; Mother has no way to help either."

"Fortunately, Mother has lived a few years longer than you and can see clearly the pros and cons of this matter. Listen as Mother gives you a simple analysis."

"You have come to find Mother now, I fear, hoping that Mother will stand up for you and capture Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, and their party of disciples."

"That way, you can regain the face you lost, right?"

"But Mother wants to tell you that face and such are empty; only benefits are real."

"Think carefully: among your generation, only the two of you have become Daluo Jinxian. The other fox demons struggle even to take human form now."

"Following by Taishang Laojun's side—that is the true, tangible benefit. To raise an army in anger just because of this matter? That is not good!"

Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao listened to their old mother's words and also came to an understanding, but then thought of something else and spoke up:

"Mother, but Laojun—Laojun told us to obstruct Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, and their party. If we just let it go like this, wouldn't we have failed to complete the task Laojun entrusted to us? How would we report back to Laojun then?"

The Nine-Tailed Fox Demon, upon hearing this, tapped the heads of Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao lightly:

"Stupid, truly stupid. Taishang Laojun only told you to obstruct Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, and their party; he did not tell you to lay down your lives here."

"Right now, your task can be considered perfectly completed. What you need to do at this moment is to hurry back to the Heaven Realm, not have Mother go out and stand up for you!"

"You must know, having the Heaven Realm as your backing and Taishang Laojun as your great tree is a heaven-sent opportunity. Although it is boring, the benefits are immense, and there is no threat to your lives. Isn't that good?"

Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao were, at this moment, enlightened by their mother, the Nine-Tailed Fox Demon.

It was not that Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao were not clever; after all, if they were not clever, how could they have been valued by Taishang Laojun and chosen as alchemy boys?

It was simply because Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao had been in the Tushita Palace for too long and had basically never dealt with outsiders, leading them to get stuck in a dead end for a moment.

Now, hearing the explanation from their mother, the Nine-Tailed Fox Demon, they suddenly understood the key to the matter.

"Thank you, Mother. We know what to do now."

"The time is not early now, Mother. We will prepare to rush back to the Heaven Realm. When we have time in the future, we will find a moment to come back and see you, Mother, and listen more to your guidance."

Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao, who had come to Yalong Cave crying, were now leaving very happily, preparing to return to the Heaven Realm.

Heaven Realm.

Lingxiao Treasure Hall.

Taishang Laojun was currently in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, watching everything happening at Pingding Mountain through the Haotian Mirror of the Emperor Huang Tiandi, and was simply dumbfounded.

'This, this, this—this isn't right. How could things have developed into this state?'

The various deities of the Heaven Realm were all wearing expressions of watching a good show, looking at Taishang Laojun who sat beside the Emperor Huang Tiandi.

They wanted to see how Taishang Laojun would face such a situation.

Although Taibai Jinxing had previously explained that even if Fahai came to the Heaven Realm to lodge a complaint, it would not be a big deal and could be handled completely.

But things would never develop according to the original trajectory; after all, Taibai Jinxing had not anticipated that Sun Wukong would also come to the Heaven Realm along with Fahai. ===== CHAPTER 1795 =====
