Chapter 511
Compared to the internal strife of the Western Buddhist Sect, in the Eastern Heavenly Court, the candidates for the Eastward Journey of this Journey to the West Great Calamity had already been selected.
After all, in the Heavenly Court, although the Jade Emperor could not make decisions alone, he was, after all, an avatar of the Heavenly Emperor Haotian. ### CHAPTER 904
Therefore, the fact that Heavenly Emperor Haotian had the support of Dao Ancestor Hongjun naturally meant that the Jade Emperor had the support of Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
So much so that in this Heavenly Court, there was no voice of opposition regarding the Eastward Journey.
After all, opposing the Jade Emperor was opposing Dao Ancestor Hongjun, so under these circumstances, no one in the Heavenly Court dared to openly refute this matter, though it was unclear what they did in secret.
Regarding this, the Jade Emperor—or more accurately, Heavenly Emperor Haotian—did not care, because after seeing senior Wu Feng’s grocery store,
Heavenly Emperor Haotian’s horizons had broadened significantly, so he didn't care much about the internal strife and schemes within the Heavenly Court.
However, even so, as the Lord of the Heavenly Court, Heavenly Emperor Haotian still perfectly fulfilled his responsibilities.
One of them was the candidate for the Eastward Journey; the most crucial Eastern Daoist Child had already been determined by the Heavenly Court to be Emperor Donghua, who had received the approval of Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
It was just that, like the Western Buddhist Sect, Emperor Donghua still had to reincarnate.
Now, while the Buddhist Sect was still arguing endlessly, Emperor Donghua, the Daoist Child of the Eastward Journey, had already been born into a certain family in the mortal world.
As for the remaining guardians of the Eastward Journey, the Jade Emperor had originally hoped that his nephew Yang Jian would go.
Although Emperor Donghua’s strength was extraordinary, after reincarnating, he would not recover much strength during this Journey to the West Great Calamity, and his memories would not even be restored until the Eastward Journey was successful.
Unfortunately, because of his parents' affairs, Yang Jian’s relationship with the Jade Emperor was very stiff, so much so that Yang Jian was essentially someone who heard but did not obey orders.
Therefore, he did not agree to the Jade Emperor’s request at all.
Under these circumstances, the Jade Emperor had to settle for second best and arrange for Nezha to become the guardian of this Eastward Journey.
As for the remaining two, who were the people coasting to match the Westward Journey, the Jade Emperor didn't even arrange them personally; he completely left it to his confidant, Taibai Jinxing, to handle.
However, unlike the Westward Journey of the Western Buddhist Sect, whose purpose was to have the Tang Emperor Li Shimin arrange for people to go to the West to obtain scriptures, thereby making Western Buddhism flourish in the East and driving the growth of Western fortune,
the Heavenly Court’s Eastward Journey was to investigate the revival of the Wu and Demon clans.
After all, although the Wu and Demon clans were mortal enemies, now that their home base in the Heavenly Court was occupied, the Demon Race naturally wouldn't think about exterminating the Wu Clan.
Instead, they were preparing to drive out the Jade Emperor, who was occupying their Heavenly Court.
Therefore, this Eastward Journey of the Heavenly Court was to investigate the revival of the Wu and Demon clans, and most importantly, the Demon Race.
This was so that the Heavenly Court could have sufficient preparations once they went to war with the Demon Race later.
But these were matters for later.
Now, all parties in the Primordial World were making preparations for the Journey to the West Great Calamity.
Duobao Daoren, the former Buddha Tathagata of the Buddhist Sect, naturally was not without preparations.
At this moment, Duobao Daoren personally came to the Water Curtain Cave on Mount Huaguo.
"Duobao has come to pay respects to the Great Sage Equal to Heaven!" ### CHAPTER 905 **Sun Wukong’s Reverse Scale!**
Although Duobao Daoren’s strength far exceeded Sun Wukong’s, he was now asking for a favor.
Therefore, facing Sun Wukong, this Da Luo Golden Immortal, Duobao Daoren gave him plenty of face.
On this side, Sun Wukong did not have much affection for Duobao Daoren.
After all, Sun Wukong, having read *Journey to the West*, knew very clearly that it was this person before him who had schemed against him for over five hundred years.
Therefore, although Sun Wukong heard Duobao Daoren’s words, he showed no reaction.
Fortunately, Marshal Tianpeng was now a disciple of Tongtian Jiaozhu, so for Duobao Daoren, his fellow sect brother,
Marshal Tianpeng personally spoke up to plead for him:
"Monkey Brother, look, Senior Brother Duobao has come personally, and besides, the things in *Journey to the West* haven't happened yet. Why must you make things difficult for Senior Brother Duobao because of this?"
Hearing Marshal Tianpeng’s persuasive words, Sun Wukong was touched, but he did not soften his attitude in his speech.
"Hmph! What? Are you also preparing to let me fall into Duobao Daoren’s trap?"
Although Sun Wukong didn't know what Duobao Daoren had come for, he was certain of one thing: that Duobao Daoren coming to find him definitely meant nothing good.
However, based on Marshal Tianpeng’s understanding of Sun Wukong, since he hadn't driven Duobao Daoren away immediately, it meant that Sun Wukong wasn't too angry.
It could even be said that Sun Wukong was just throwing a tantrum.
Otherwise, if Sun Wukong were truly angry, he wouldn't be speaking; he would have already been driving him away with his Golden-Hooped Rod.
One must know that in Mount Huaguo, there was the senior Wu Feng presiding.
Therefore, under these circumstances, there really weren't many people who dared to make a move on Mount Huaguo, not even Saints.
So, facing Sun Wukong’s method of driving people away with a staff, any cultivator in the Primordial World had no way to deal with it without using force.
"Alright, Monkey Brother, just let Senior Brother Duobao come in and let him speak."
"We can make a decision after we’ve heard what he has to say."
Marshal Tianpeng was still trying to persuade Sun Wukong.
Jin Chanzi on the side also spoke up: "Bajie is right. Even if we want to drive him away, we should at least listen to what Duobao Daoren has to say."
Sun Wukong had originally just felt a bit awkward inside, but now, under the persuasion of Marshal Tianpeng and Jin Chanzi, he had returned to his normal state of mind.
So he prepared to meet Duobao Daoren.
After Duobao Daoren entered the Water Curtain Cave, he didn't drag things out and went straight to the point:
"Great Sage, I hope that the four of you will go on the Journey to the West."
"What?!"
At this moment, let alone Sun Wukong, even Marshal Tianpeng, Duobao Daoren’s fellow sect brother, glared angrily at Duobao Daoren.
One must know that Sun Wukong, Marshal Tianpeng, and even Jin Chanzi and General Juanlian had all read the book *Journey to the West* located in Wu Feng’s grocery store.
Under these circumstances, Duobao Daoren asking Sun Wukong and the group of four to go on the Journey to the West—wasn't this touching their reverse scale?
Consequently, Sun Wukong had already drawn his Golden-Hooped Rod, preparing to drive him away.
And Marshal Tianpeng was no longer speaking for Duobao Daoren; instead, he summoned his Nine-Toothed Rake, preparing to assist Sun Wukong.
Jin Chanzi was also preparing to make a move, while General Juanlian, whose strength was too low, could only watch the show from the side.
"Great Sage, Junior Brother, Master Jin Chanzi, General Juanlian, don't be in such a hurry. Wait until I finish speaking before making a decision." ### CHAPTER 906 **Exterminate the Western Buddhist Sect**
