Chapter 2550: Might As Well Be a Mountain King
Sun Wukong nodded, looked at Tianpeng, and said, "Idiot, you came at the right time. My Mount Huaguo has countless mountain fruits and beautiful scenery; why don't you stay here and occupy the mountain as king with me, and be a great demon?"
Tianpeng smiled, looked at Sun Wukong with sincere eyes, and said, "That would naturally be best; I didn't expect Monkey Brother and I to think the same way."
"Come, come, come, let's drink; why worry about so much!"
As Sun Wukong spoke, he beckoned with his hand, and a jar of wine flew into his hand. He said with a face full of smiles.
A little monkey saw this and stepped forward to hand Tianpeng a wine bowl. Tianpeng took the bowl and was about to step forward to receive the wine.
Just at this moment, the water curtain at the entrance flowed backward and upward, and a man dressed in black tight-fitting clothes appeared at the entrance of the cave.
This person was incredibly handsome, with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, standing with his hands behind his back, looking indescribably elegant and heroic.
This person was none other than Wu Feng.
"Senior Wu Feng, why are you here?"
"I just returned to Mount Huaguo and was thinking of paying you a visit. I have fine wine here; come and drink with us!"
Sun Wukong turned his head, was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said.
Wu Feng smiled and said, "Wukong, Bajie, I am not here to drink."
"I have come specifically to notify you that your Master is in trouble, and you must go save him quickly."
Sun Wukong immediately put down the wine jar in his hand, widened his eyes, looked at Wu Feng, and said, "Which blind demon is it again, wanting to target my Master!"
Wu Feng smiled slightly and said, "Follow the Thorn Ridge, get on the main road, and head west; you will meet that demon."
Sun Wukong immediately manifested the Somersault Cloud under his feet, then looked at Tianpeng and said, "Idiot, why are you still standing there?"
Tianpeng lowered his head, mumbling in his mouth, and said, "Hmph, if we go now, he won't recognize us."
"You keep calling him Master, but he probably stopped recognizing us two disciples long ago."
Anger flashed in Sun Wukong's eyes; he looked at Tianpeng and said, "You idiot, what time is it, and you are still calculating these things."
Unexpectedly, Tianpeng suddenly raised his head and said, "Doesn't Buddhism speak of fate? Fate gathers and fate disperses; since we have already left, the fate has dispersed."
"Pfft!"
Sun Wukong bared his teeth and brandished his claws, about to reveal his Ruyi Jingu Bang to strike at Tianpeng.
Wu Feng reached out to block him, stopping Sun Wukong. He said indifferently, "Tianpeng, I ask you, who do you serve in this life?"
"Is it the Emperor, or Rulai, or your Master?"
Tianpeng glanced at Wu Feng. This question seemed difficult to answer. He thought for a long time and actually said, "I serve my Monkey Brother."
"What Rulai or Emperor, let alone that Master with mortal eyes—I, Tianpeng, also want to be like Monkey Brother, possessing the creation of heaven and earth, fearing no one."
When Tianpeng gave this answer, the smile on Wu Feng's face grew thicker, while Sun Wukong appeared incredibly surprised.
Wu Feng paced slowly in the cave, looked back at Tianpeng, and said, "But your Monkey Brother was also once suppressed under Mount Wuzhi, having many things he wanted to do but couldn't."
"Tianpeng, do you know that ever since the five of you stepped onto this road to the Western Heaven, your fates have been linked together?"
Tianpeng looked up at Wu Feng and said, "I know you are the sixth Saint of the myriad heavens; if you have something to say, just say it directly. My brain is slow; if you beat around the bush too much, I won't understand." ===== CHAPTER 2552 =====
