Chapter 146: Lingshan! Lingshan!!!

"No, Big Sister."

Jiuyue got up, wanting to grab Tang An, but couldn't even catch the hem of her clothes, which were within arm's reach.

"I don't want magic treasures, and I don't want any Universe Silk."

"Big Sister, if something happens to you, how could I ever go back to being that carefree little fox?"

Tang An looked back at Jiuyue and wiped away her own tears.

"Big Sister is just going to fetch reinforcements, not to die."

"Don't worry, I will come back."

Tang An looked at the sky full of demons and monsters, facing the enemy alone with her own strength.

Yet her momentum was magnificent, and she was not afraid in the slightest.

It was as if she possessed the courage of Sun Wukong when he wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace, facing one hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals alone.

She was, after all, a little girl who grew up watching the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

"I know you were brought here by Lingshan."

"I also know you are here for my life."

"Fine, then let's keep moving forward and see if you kill me first, or if I find the Bodhi Patriarch first."

Tang An seemed to see them, her gaze shifting toward Jiuyue.

"But before that, I advise you not to harbor any thoughts of harming her."

"Because she has no value, and she is not one of the four of us master and disciples."

"She is just a mount, a mount I abducted, at that."

"Of course, since I've said this much, I am openly leaving you a way to live."

"If you listen to what I just said and target only me, then you might not necessarily die."

"But if you try to touch her after I leave, you had better weigh the consequences of what will happen to you, these Lingshan lackeys, if I don't die."

"And you had better weigh whether, when those great gods strike and the Saints appear, you demons and monsters, no matter how many there are, can withstand even a single finger from a Saint."

Having said this, Tang An felt it was not enough and raised her right hand to swear.

"I, Tang An, hereby swear."

"If you are only targeting me under pressure from Lingshan, I will not trouble you afterward."

"But if you kill Jiuyue, or rather, if any one of you demons kills her."

"I, Tang An, will not only make Lingshan pay the price, but I will make every single one of you die without a burial place, your souls scattered and your fates erased forever."

"If you don't believe me, you can try."

Having said her piece, Tang An walked forward alone.

She had no magic power and could not ride the clouds.

She had no magic power and could only rely on her two legs to walk the final hundred miles.

She did not know when Yang Jian and Nezha would be able to arrive.

She only knew that she could only walk forward with solitary courage.

The demons looked at one another.

How could they not know the principle that when gods fight, mortals suffer?

Their goal for this trip was indeed Tang An, and there was no need to kill a fox demon the Buddha had never mentioned, bringing certain death upon themselves.

"Children, surround the Destined One, attack!"

Once one gave the order, the demons swarmed.

Her thin figure walked through the mountain forest. The trees around her had all been cut in half by the demons' magic power, and raging fires had been ignited.

Behind her was a sky full of demons and monsters, and a sky full of various colored demon arts and magic treasures, all heading straight for her alone from different directions.

At the moment when that oppressive demon power was about to strike Tang An's head, time seemed to stand still.

"Big Sister!!!" Jiuyue screamed, her heart breaking, ignoring her injuries as she ran toward Tang An.

At the very last moment before the attacks reached her, Tang An closed her eyes.

Could it be that this time, she was really going to die?

The journey to the West was like a dream, full of laughter and scolding, how happy it had been.

If the dream ended here, returning to the modern world would be quite nice too.

At the very least, she did not regret meeting Sun Wukong, Yang Jian, Nezha, Jiuyue, and Xiaotian Quan.

At the very least, in the future, she could recall the happiness of the past again and again.

It was just a pity that she feared she would not be able to see if Wukong could be saved by Bodhi after she left.

"Rumble—"

All kinds of demon arts and magic treasures were unleashed, crashing down and leveling the upper half of the entire mountain.

"Big Sister!!!"

Jiuyue was blown away by the aftermath of the explosion, and what she saw was Tang An's figure being swallowed by the blast.

The aftermath of the explosion was immense, causing her to fall heavily into the mountain after being blown away, sliding a hundred meters and stopping only after crashing into boulders and shattering them.

Yet despite this, she still supported her body, which was on the verge of falling into a coma from severe injury, and crawled out of the rubble.

"Big, Big Sister..."

She looked at the fire-filled sky and the leveled mountain top, kneeling on the ground powerlessly, tears falling like rain.

"Ah!"

"Ah!!!"

Jiuyue was overcome with grief, triggering her internal injuries and vomiting a mouthful of blood.

"Hehehe... hehehe..."

When she looked up again, the grief in her eyes was gone, leaving only blood-red.

"Lingshan."

"Lingshan!!!"

So what if she had no heaven-defying background? So what if she was just a nine-tailed fox demon?

She was the auspicious omen brought out by Big Sister, so how could she fear that heaven-defying power!

"Immeasurable, Daoist Master."

The voice of Lishan Laomu suddenly rang out.

The Ten Thousand Scale Armor on Tang An's body was completely shattered, but her body emitted a golden light, floating into mid-air.

"Big Sister?"

Jiuyue looked up at the golden light, her grief turning into unbelievable joy.

She scrambled up from the ground, stumbling as she ran toward Tang An, ignoring everything else.

"Golden Armor Feather Garment." Tang An opened her eyes, "It seems I bet correctly."

"Big Sister." The fastest Jiuyue had ever flown in her life was at this moment, as she flew to Tang An's side regardless of everything.

Tang An caught Jiuyue, who was about to fall due to her severe injuries.

Now, she could no longer even maintain her mount state, and only a little fox remained, curled up in Tang An's arms.

"Big Sister will take you away." Tang An stroked her fur with heartache and fed her a Ginseng Fruit leaf.

Previously, Tang An did not know if she would die, so no matter what, she could not drag Jiuyue to die with her.

But now, she had a bottom line in her heart, and only by keeping Jiuyue by her side would she be safest.

After all, she had made such a vicious oath, and leaving Jiuyue here would be no different from handing Lingshan a soft underbelly.

"She, she actually isn't dead!"

"That sound just now, that pressure... is..."

"Quick, quick, attack! If she lives, we will all die!"

"Quick!"

Tang An ignored the demons behind her, holding Jiuyue tightly and letting the Golden Armor Feather Garment take her away.

On the day of the New Year, when Lishan Laomu gifted the Golden Armor Feather Garment, she had already said that there was a wisp of immortal breath gifted to save her life.

When she was in danger, the Golden Armor Feather Garment could take her away in flight.

A distance of a hundred miles was enough to fly to Lingtai Fangcun Mountain.

After she left, at almost the same time, Nezha and Yang Jian arrived at the spot where Tang An had been bombed.

The demons did not know where to look for Tang An, only to see two figures and a dog blocking their path.

When Yang Jian and Nezha saw the leveled mountain top, killing intent burned in both of them almost simultaneously.

"Second Brother."

Yang Jian scanned the entire mountain with his Heavenly Eye, "Nothing."

At this time, no news was the best news.

Nezha looked up, his Golden Body Dharma Image already manifested.

His hand holding the Fire-Tipped Spear was trembling slightly. A god who feared nothing in heaven or earth was truly afraid now.

"Where is she?"

Before the demons could speak, Nezha added, "You, speak." He pointed to a tiger demon at the front of the pack.

The tiger demon's teeth chattered, and he couldn't speak clearly.

He could only point in the direction of Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, "Alive, alive, alive..."

He wanted to say that she was still alive and had gone to Lingtai Fangcun Mountain.

But the next moment, his eyes bulged, and his chest was pierced through by Nezha's Fire-Tipped Spear.

Even his corpse was burned to ashes by the Samadhi True Fire.

Nezha was nearly insane, wanting only to kill.

"Third Brother." Yang Jian came to Nezha's side, "The priority is to ensure Master's safety."

"I will go to Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, you continue to interrogate them here."

Yang Jian knew how much Tang An's unknown fate affected the three of them.

If he didn't let Nezha vent this anger, he feared he would truly develop a Heart Demon again.
