Chapter 19: Three Monkeys Establish Their Might
Yuan Hong, Liuer, and Ma Hou, the three of them, finally found the territory of the Eastern Earl after listening to their master's instructions.
Upon arriving in front of the Eastern Earl's government office, they were about to enter.
"Stop! Where did you little demons come from, daring to come to the Eastern Earl's place to run wild? Let me tell you, our Eastern Earl's mansion has many Great Immortals stationed here; if you don't want to die, get lost quickly," the gate guard said. He was usually most afraid of demons, but now that many Great Immortal-level figures had come to the mansion (because the ordinary Demon Clan of the Intercepting Sect had transformed into human form, while Yuan Hong and the other two could not transform because they were born divine monkeys), he naturally had to be bold for once and intentionally make things difficult.
"Say that again, and I'll take your life," Yuan Hong said angrily. He had come to help the Eastern Earl with great effort, only to be insulted by a gatekeeper upon arrival; he was truly furious.
"I'll say it again! You little demon, still wanting to act fierce at my Eastern Earl's place? Someone come! There are demons causing trouble at the office gate, Great Immortals, come quickly!" the guard said, and fearing retaliation from the demons, he quickly called for people.
Suddenly, a loud roar came from inside: "Where are the little demons daring to come and cause trouble?" As he spoke, a burly man rushed out from within. This person was none other than Duobao's head disciple, Anan. Behind him followed a group of Intercepting Sect disciples.
It turned out that the Eastern Earl was hosting a banquet in the main hall for the Intercepting Sect disciples who had come to help. While they were eating inside, they suddenly heard someone shouting about demons coming to cause trouble, so the hot-tempered Anan shouted and walked out.
Yuan Hong, Liuer, and Ma Hou were not having it. Damn it, they had come with good intentions to help the Eastern Earl, and before they had even met him, they had been scolded twice. Yuan Hong immediately said, "Your Grandpa Yuan Hong is here! Why haven't you knelt down and called me Grandpa yet?"
Anan was now anxious. Relying on being a disciple of Duobao, he was someone in the Intercepting Sect who never suffered a loss; when had he ever been lectured like this? He said angrily, "Watch as your Grandpa Anan beats you until your body and spirit are destroyed today!" After speaking, he tapped his feet on the ground and, with a 'Boom—', flew toward Yuan Hong.
Yuan Hong did not dodge or evade, simply extending a fist. Everyone thought Yuan Hong hadn't had time to react and had only instinctively put out a fist, but then a scene that shocked them occurred.
They saw Anan, who had attacked with great speed, get blasted into the house by Yuan Hong's punch, grinding along the ground for dozens of meters before stopping. It truly left everyone dumbfounded.
Once Anan saw that he had suffered such a great loss, he was even less willing to let it go. He thought Yuan Hong was just a monkey with a bit more strength and had only hit him by coincidence, so he stood up and shouted at Yuan Hong, "You were just lucky earlier and hit me by chance; don't be arrogant!" As he spoke, Anan attacked again. Yuan Hong still did not dodge or evade, extending that same fist again. With a 'Boom—', Anan flew out again. After Anan flew a few more times, he realized this monkey had high-level strength and shouted, "Everyone, attack together! This demon monkey is very powerful." Just as everyone was about to strike, they suddenly heard a person say, "Who comes here? May I ask for your names and your purpose for coming?" It was Shen Gongbao (due to plot requirements, Shen Gongbao is an Intercepting Sect disciple) who, seeing Yuan Hong's powerful strength, asked.
"I am Yuan Hong, the head disciple under Kong Xuan of Dongying Island. These two are my junior brothers, Liuer and Ma Hou. We are here under our master's orders to help the Eastern Earl achieve great things," Yuan Hong said to that person.
Once everyone heard they were Kong Xuan's disciples, they naturally stopped immediately. Nonsense, although Kong Xuan was the fourth disciple, his strength was absolutely the strongest among the Intercepting Sect disciples, and it was said he was extremely protective of his own. Therefore, all the disciples decided they must definitely curry favor with these three.
"So it is the three disciples of Senior Brother Kong Xuan. I am Shen Gongbao, the fifteenth disciple of Grandmaster Tongtian. I hope the three junior nephews will let this matter pass for my sake," Shen Gongbao said with a smile.
"Fine, for the sake of our Uncle-Master, we will not pursue today's matter. But if anyone dares to provoke us again in the future, don't blame the three of us for not showing mercy," Yuan Hong said with dignity.
"Very well, three junior nephews, please come inside," he said, leading the three of them into the main hall, having people bring three sets of tables, chairs, bowls, and chopsticks, and inviting the three of them to sit and eat.
The three of them had never eaten such a sumptuous meal on Dongying Island, so they immediately began to wolf it down, eating from the basin while grabbing from the bowl and pouring it into their mouths. It left everyone stunned. Fortunately, everyone had eaten enough, otherwise, who could have gotten their fill? After the meal, Shen Gongbao arranged lodging for the three and left.
"Eldest Senior Brother, the human world is truly great! Not only are there many strange and curious things, but there is also such delicious food. It seems we were right to leave the island this time," Ma Hou said to Yuan Hong.
"Indeed, Eldest Senior Brother, the human world is not bad at all," Liuer echoed.
"Enough. Regardless of whether the human world is beautiful or not, remember that Master sent us here to help the Eastern Earl compete for supremacy. Don't put your minds on useless things," Yuan Hong said.
"Yes, Senior Brother, we understand," the two monkeys replied quickly.
"Good that you know," Yuan Hong continued.
Kong Xuan watched the performance of his three disciples through the Mirror Technique and was very satisfied. He closed the Mirror Technique and went back to continue his cultivation.
I will post three chapters today. I hope everyone will support me; just click and recommend more. I don't even want monthly tickets anymore. Right now, I just want to write my book well and strive to produce a work that everyone likes. If there is anything you are dissatisfied with, please write it in the comments where I am writing poorly, and I will definitely change it. Also, I want to ask everyone: does this book need a heroine? Or perhaps you can tell me what kind of law the protagonist's Hongmeng Purple Qi is. I will strive to follow everyone's opinions in the comments you write.
