Chapter 2008: Heaven Observes, Immortals Discuss the Tribulation

Master Chen swept a glance at Sun Wukong and the others, then suddenly knelt down with a thud, saying, "Immortal masters, I know you have vast supernatural powers. Please, I beg you to eliminate King Linggan to comfort the souls of the dead children. The survival of Chen Family Village is entrusted to you."

Seeing this, Sun Wukong immediately revealed his original form, stepped forward to help Master Chen up, and said, "Master Chen, please don't do this; it is too much for us."

"You are kind-hearted and treated us passing monks so well. If it weren't for you, my two junior brothers might have frozen to death in the snow tonight."

Fahai also manifested his true form and said, "That is correct. We have always hated evil and considered subduing demons and eliminating evil as our duty. Therefore, no matter what, we will ensure the safety of Chen Family Village tomorrow and eradicate King Linggan."

At this time, above the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Emperor Haotian and a group of immortals were watching this scene in the lower realm.

Taishang Laojun stroked his beard and said indifferently, "This kalpa tribulation is just as predicted. Sun Wukong and Fahai have indeed transformed into bait to lure King Linggan into appearing."

Haotian's expression was cold as he said, "What King Linggan? This was fundamentally orchestrated by the Buddhas of the Western Heaven. That King Linggan is just a golden carp that swam in the lotus pond of Lingshan for ten million years, tainted with Buddhist light and spiritual power, and privately descended to the mortal realm just to manufacture this kalpa tribulation."

Taibai Jinxing frowned and said, "In that case, it's a fish raised by their Buddhist sect. That will be hard to deal with. Can Sun Wukong and Fahai handle it? Let's hope they don't destroy Chen Family Village."

Nezha's eyes rolled a few times, and he said, "You all saw the scene on the Tongtian River earlier. Marshal Tianpeng and General Juan Lian were burned by fire under the river water. How is this possible? What is going on?"

"Listening to what they said, there is also a priest. Does King Linggan have a very powerful helper?"

Li Jing looked at Nezha and said, "I have never heard of fire being able to burn underwater. Looking at the injuries of Marshal Tianpeng and General Juan Lian, they are not light. The power of this fire must be extraordinary. Where on earth did that priest come from?"

The Heavenly Emperor Haotian glanced at the Clairvoyant and All-Hearing ear beside him and said, "Investigate what this priest is. Why have I never heard his name in the Three Realms?"

The Clairvoyant and All-Hearing ear looked at each other, and a golden book appeared in each of their hands. The pages flipped one by one, filled with glittering golden characters.

A moment later, they had finished reading the two books. Both of their faces were filled with confusion as they said, "Heavenly Emperor, there is no such person in the Three Realms. As for this kind of fire, there is no record of it either."

Hearing them say this, the Heavenly Emperor Haotian frowned, stroked his beard, and pondered, "In that case, things are likely to be very difficult to handle."

"I don't know what kind of tricks the Western Buddhas are playing, letting down a lotus pond golden carp just to set up a kalpa tribulation for Jin Chanzi and his disciples to experience. I fear that if this fire starts burning, even if Sun Wukong and Fahai join forces, they might not be able to stop it."

"Right." The Heavenly Emperor Haotian suddenly remembered something and looked at the Clairvoyant beside him, saying, "Is Tang Sanzang still alive? He hasn't been stewed by that golden carp, has he?"

The Clairvoyant placed his hand on his brow, and two golden rays shot from his eyes, looking all the way to the residence at the bottom of the Tongtian River. He said, "Tang Sanzang is still alive. That golden carp seems to be a bit afraid of Sun Wukong. If he doesn't solve the trouble of Sun Wukong first, I fear that if Tang Sanzang dies, he will have to fight him to the death." ===== CHAPTER 2010 =====
