Chapter 198: Rulai, Jade Emperor: Who taught you to swear like that?!!!

~8 min read 1,418 words

As for the problem of tying her up, it had already happened twice.

So for this tribulation, there was no need to say much; Nezha and Jiuyue already knew what kind of test it was.

"I'll go and be back in a flash."

"Hey!" Tang An was quick-eyed and grabbed Nezha's Universe Ring first.

Nezha took off the Universe Ring, and Tang An grabbed his Fire-Tipped Spear.

Nezha threw away the Fire-Tipped Spear and was about to fly away, but Tang An reached out and grabbed his ankle.

"Hey, hey, hey! I'm flying!"

"Let go."

"If I let go, I'll fall to my death!"

Nezha's mouth twitched slightly. This scene...

He sighed helplessly and could only descend to let Tang An's feet touch the ground first.

"You're already down."

"I know."

"Let go."

"You come down first."

"If I come down, will you let go?"

"How do you know if I'll let go if you don't come down?"

Nezha sighed deeply and floated down with a look of despair.

Sure enough, the moment he landed, Tang An directly tied him up with the Universe Ribbon and even tied a big butterfly knot.

"This is my Universe Ribbon." Nezha was speechless. Could this Universe Ribbon really tie him up?

"I know." Tang An even tidied up Nezha's hair. Don't say, she really wanted to put a few butterfly hair clips on his forehead.

However, from Nezha's perspective...

He looked at Tang An, who kept staring at him, and lowered his head for a moment to hide the panic in his eyes.

"I know, you're aiming to kill the monsters, right?"

"But can you calm down and listen to me first? We're aiming to grind out the tribulations. If you kill them directly, our tribulation won't be completed."

"If the tribulation isn't completed, wouldn't we have walked all those days for nothing?"

"So, we have to go over first, and wait until the monsters are about to make a move on me before you appear. This way, we have reason and evidence, and we can directly grind the tribulation."

"It's fast, and we can solve the problem directly. Isn't that great?"

"And besides, can your Master be a lustful person?"

Nezha, Jiuyue, Yang Jian, Sun Wukong, and Xiaotian Quan—so many pairs of eyes looked at Tang An, all carrying a tacit question of four words.

"You, aren't you?"

"I'm not, really." Tang An raised her hand in a swearing gesture. "I, Tang An, swear that if there is a single word of falsehood in what I just said, then let Rulai and the Jade Emperor be struck by five thunders."

Above Lingshan and the Heavenly Court.

"Boom!!!"

Rulai and the Jade Emperor looked up almost simultaneously, calculating the thunderclouds above their heads, and soon understood what was going on.

"Destined One!!!"

"!!!! Who taught you to swear like that?"

What kind of good person uses someone else's life to make their own oath?

"Crack! Snap!"

Two pillars of thunder struck down at the same time.

One was the Jade Emperor, who was struck until he was spitting black smoke from his five orifices, and the other was Rulai, who was charred and tender from the lightning, his face black.

Don't ask who struck them; just look at how neither of them dodged, and you'll know it was that person acting on Heaven's will again!

In the void.

A figure lay half-reclined in the auspicious clouds. Don't say, his posture of lying on his side and being cocky was exactly the same as Tang An's.

"One after another, they all like to comply with the Heavenly Dao and follow Heaven's will."

"Nothing but mediocre talents."

His brows and eyes were full of cold arrogance.

Only when the scene turned to Tang An's side did joy and satisfaction emerge in his eyes.

On the Journey to the West, Jingji Ridge.

Tang An and her group stopped to rest and eat something.

Seeing that it was dark and not easy to travel, they found a place to light a fire and spend the night.

"It's really hard to walk here. Are you okay, Jiuyue?"

Jiuyue rubbed against Tang An's face. "It's fine, Sister. I am a nine-tailed fox; this difficult mountain road makes no difference to me."

"Great." Tang An rubbed Jiuyue's fur and said to Nezha: "Look, I told you our auspicious beast is much stronger than some dragon horse."

Nezha remained silent with a cold face, just roasting a pancake over the fire.

Clearly, who this roasted pancake was for was self-evident.

"Tsk, tsundere." Tang An walked to the campfire to warm herself. "What do you think, when will the monsters come? We've already reached this Jingji Ridge; why haven't they taken action yet?"

"Are they a bit too unprofessional?"

Sun Wukong handed a water bag to Tang An. "Master, do you want us to find an excuse and overturn this Jingji Ridge?"

"Cough, cough..."

"No, no, no." Tang An almost choked. "This tribulation is a literary exam; no need to be so violent."

"Literary exam?" Yang Jian really couldn't imagine the scene of him sitting with a group of monsters taking an exam.

Tang An waved away the scene she had imagined. "It's not that kind of literary exam; you can understand it as a literary battle."

"Literary battle?" Sun Wukong lost interest as soon as he heard it. "Old Sun has only followed Master for a few years; I don't know how to literary battle, I don't know how to literary battle."

Nezha still had a cold face. "With their ability, they aren't worthy of a literary battle with me."

Yang Jian also had no interest in this matter. "How about you, Master..."

"Wow, you guys, usually when it comes to killing monsters, you're more diligent than anyone. Once it comes to the literary battle segment, you throw Master out to face them first, huh?"

Tang An searched her brain for the Three Hundred Tang Poems. The key was that when she was memorizing them, she never thought that one day she would be able to use Tang poems in the Tang Dynasty to have a literary battle with a group of monsters.

"You guys wait a moment, let me review."

She naturally took the roasted pancake handed over by Nezha. Don't say, Nezha's grasp of the heat was truly unmatched.

He could roast the pancake until it was crispy and fragrant, and when he handed it to her, it wasn't hot to the touch. When she ate it, it was warm and didn't burn her mouth.

A quarter of an hour later...

The pancake was just finished, and the person fell asleep after eating.

Nezha looked at the book in Tang An's hand. "I said that there must be some magic spell cast in that book; you guys still didn't believe me."

Yes, clearly Tang An was reading a book while eating the roasted pancake.

The roasted pancake was finished, and the person fell asleep.

Yang Jian and Sun Wukong both smiled; one sat cross-legged in meditation, and the other leaned against a rock and lay down to rest.

Nezha had no intention of sleeping, but out of curiosity, he still wanted to know what Tang An was reading that could make her fall asleep so quickly.

Then, a quarter of an hour later...

A full screen of zzz...

In the middle of the night.

Tang An only felt a cool breeze blowing, which woke her up from the cold.

When she woke up, she rubbed her eyes in a daze and subconsciously looked at a certain place.

"Holy crap!"

"Holy crap!!!"

"Ah!!!"

Her shout woke up Sun Wukong, Yang Jian, and Nezha.

What did Tang An see?

It was an old man dressed in ancient costume, wearing brocade clothes, leaning on a cane, with a faint green light on his body.

In this deep mountain and old forest, with this special effect, at this time, and it happened right when she was half-asleep and half-awake!

Are you sure this is here for a literary battle, and not to scare her to death?

Eighteen Elders looked at Nezha, who was emitting murderous aura, and Sun Wukong and Yang Jian, who were staring at him, and had no choice but to be awkward on the spot.

Should he go? Or should he not go?

But he was clearly here to pretend to be an immortal? Why did the Destined One look more like she had seen a lonely ghost?
