Chapter 2440: The Wronged Sun Wukong

After all, this Buddha-Light Sarira had been in Jisaiguo for over a thousand years; how could it be stolen overnight?

Seeing him still pondering, Sun Wukong suddenly said, "Master, you stay here first. I will fly to the pagoda immediately to see if the Sarira has been stolen."

Tang Seng nodded and said, "Then hurry!"

Sun Wukong channeled his true energy to the soles of his feet and was about to fly up when he suddenly looked at the blood rain filling the sky and thought of Tang Seng's safety.

So he pulled the Ruyi Jingu Bang from his ear. With a flash of golden light in his hand, the Ruyi Jingu Bang grew to the length of a person.

Then he drew a circle around Tang Seng.

"Master, before I return, no matter what happens, do not leave this circle."

Sun Wukong looked at Tang Seng and said with great seriousness.

Tang Seng nodded and said, "Very well."

Subsequently, Sun Wukong leaped and flew toward the pagoda.

A moment later, he arrived before the pagoda.

Looking up at the pagoda, it was nine stories high, rising straight into the clouds, grand and imposing.

At this moment, outside the pagoda, hundreds of monks had gathered. They stood in the square outside the pagoda, looking at the blood rain filling the sky, their eyes full of panic.

Sun Wukong looked at the monks and said loudly, "Where is the Sarira? Was it stolen?"

"Who are you? Are you the demon who stole the Sarira?"

A monk in yellow robes looked at Sun Wukong's appearance and said loudly.

"I am asking you, was the Sarira stolen?"

Sun Wukong felt some anger; he really disliked being judged by his appearance so often.

"Demon! You stole the Sarira and dare to come back! Take this!"

As the yellow-robed monk spoke, he pinched his fingers into a Moon-Gazing Mudra, golden light spilled from his fingertips, and he flew directly toward Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong dodged to the side, then with a backhand flick, sent the monk stumbling forward many steps.

The monk just now was clearly also a cultivator, but his cultivation was very low, not even reaching the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

Sun Wukong also realized at this moment that among the hundreds of monks, most were cultivators. For Jisaiguo to have kept the Sarira safe for so many years, it was likely because these monks were all cultivators.

But the situation tonight was clearly different; such a bizarre blood rain could not have been caused by an ordinary small demon.

"I am Sun Wukong, who wreaked havoc in Heaven five hundred years ago, escorting my master Tang Seng to the Western Heaven to obtain the scriptures."

"You lost the Sarira, and you want to blame it on me?"

Sun Wukong looked at the crowd of monks with fire in his eyes and said loudly.

At this moment, the monks all began to form hand seals, and true energy began to emanate from their bodies. Clearly, they did not want to listen to Sun Wukong's explanation.

The reason was likely because Sun Wukong looked truly strange—a monkey with a thunder-god mouth, wearing clothes; they had every reason to be suspicious.

Moreover, Sun Wukong's questioning tone made them feel even more angry, and they charged toward Sun Wukong together.

Sun Wukong stood where he was, not moving at all, only the golden light of the Ruyi Jingu Bang flashed in his hand, and then he slammed it violently onto the ground!

"Boom!"

With a loud noise, ripples of golden light spread out.

All those monks were knocked to the ground, tumbling over one another.

"I did not come here to fight, and you are not my match!"

Sun Wukong looked at the monks on the ground with anger and said loudly. ===== CHAPTER 2442 =====
