Chapter 232: Venerable Ananda, first meeting, will you let me rob you?
"Ah?" Even Golden Mane Roar, who was beaten to his last breath, couldn't help but be stunned by Tang An's words.
What he said, and what she said, were they the same meaning?
"Amituofo."
Guanyin appeared from the clouds, "Destined One, do not joke, this monster is Venerable Ananda's mount."
"Ah???" Golden Mane Roar had a head full of question marks, feeling that he had already stepped one foot into the gate of the Underworld.
When did he change his master? Why didn't he know?
"Guanyin Mahasattva, I..."
"Wicked beast." Guanyin Bodhisattva waved her hand with a force, and the Golden Mane Roar couldn't speak.
"Amituofo." Guanyin continued to look at Tang An, "This monster was originally this poor monk's mount."
"However, this poor monk gifted it to Venerable Ananda. Who knew this wicked beast would bite through the chain while Venerable Ananda was contemplating Buddhist scriptures and descend to the mortal world as a monster."
"Oh?" Tang An was very happy; Guanyin was a reasonable person.
"I wonder who can testify?"
"Since the Destined One doesn't believe it, this poor monk will go and invite Venerable Ananda to come."
Tang An waved her hand, signaling her to go.
Queen Jinsheng Gong looked at Tang An with surprise and admiration.
That was Guanyin Bodhisattva, and she actually listened to whatever she said? And had to give her an explanation?
Are the people of the Great Tang all this powerful?
"Queen Jinsheng Gong, watch carefully."
Tang An signaled her to look over, "The scene might be a bit uncomfortable, but only when you know in your heart that he is dead and will never hurt you again, can you relax the heartstrings that have been tense for three years."
"Wukong, do it."
"Alright, Master." Sun Wukong never showed mercy when beating up bad monsters.
"No! No!"
"Grandpa Great Sage, I was wrong, Destined One..."
Before Sun Wukong's cudgel fell, Nezha directly unleashed a Samadhi True Fire around him.
Only in that way could the scene look less bloody.
"Tai!"
Sun Wukong brought his cudgel down, and Golden Mane Roar's brains came out.
And at that same instant, the Samadhi True Fire directly swallowed his corpse, burning it into a skeleton, and then turning it into flying ash.
Queen Jinsheng Gong bit her lips until they almost bled; her eyes were teary, and the hatred and relief were intertwined in her eyes; she was finally free.
When the small monsters saw Golden Mane Roar die, they scattered and fled.
Xiaotian Quan and Jiuyue took action to deal with the remaining aftermath.
Their group was cooperating more and more skillfully. Often, just one look was enough to know what the other wanted to do.
After dealing with the monster cave, Tang An then took the Golden Saint Princess away.
"Queen Jinsheng Gong, don't worry anymore; from now on, you can escape the demon's den forever, and the future path will still be bright and brilliant."
Queen Jinsheng Gong nodded, wiped her tears, and followed Tang An and the others on clouds back to the Zhuzi Kingdom.
Only until they reached the sky above the Zhuzi Kingdom did Queen Jinsheng Gong have a sense of reality.
She had escaped, truly escaped.
Zhuzi Kingdom, above the Royal Palace.
"King, your Queen has arrived, why not come out and see her quickly!" Sun Wukong's voice could be heard throughout the Royal Palace.
The King of Zhuzi Kingdom didn't expect that they went in the morning, and the Queen was saved by noon. And all in all, the delay was just the journey on the road.
You know, those two palace servants had only just returned and finished reporting the journey to him. He hadn't rewarded the two for their hard work yet, and Tang An and the others had returned immediately after.
"Your Majesty~"
"Queen!"
"Your Majesty~"
"Queen!!!"
The separation of lovers for three years had not changed their feelings.
Sun Wukong put Queen Jinsheng Gong down, and the two ran toward each other and embraced.
"Ah!"
The King had just hugged the Queen when he was bounced away by a force. It made him wince in pain, his face full of confusion.
Sun Wukong then explained the origin of the thorns on Queen Jinsheng Gong's body. It was mainly to tell the King that the Queen had not been defiled by that monster in the past three years.
Seeing that the King also knew the truth, Tang An directly took out the Diamond Bracelet and, before Ziyang Zhenren could arrive, collected the Five-Colored Cloud Garment.
Although she didn't have much use for it, who took it didn't matter, and whose it was didn't matter.
Furthermore, the King and Queen, husband and wife, could finally hold hands and shed tears together.
"Your Majesty."
"Queen..."
The two embraced to relieve the pain of three years of separation and lovesickness.
Tang An sat on Jiuyue's back, resting her chin on her hand, feeling like she was eating dog food but couldn't understand it.
"Is there really an indestructible bond between husband and wife in this world?"
Nezha looked at Tang An and thought, what would happen if he didn't see her for three years?
After seeking scriptures, where would she go? Would she also leave for three years?
For some reason, Nezha always felt blocked in his heart, so he took his Fire-Tipped Spear and went to poke stones on the side.
Yang Jian understood Tang An's mood, "There is."
"Ah?" Tang An didn't expect Yang Jian to answer this question.
"My parents, they had a very good relationship. That's why my eldest brother, Third Sister, and I were taught from childhood to know what is good, what is responsibility and commitment."
"Although..."
"But I believe, believe that there is true love in this world, there is pure love. For example, Bai Susu and the young Daoist, their love transcended life and death."
Tang An held her cheeks and didn't speak again. Because what she had encountered, or rather what she had seen in the modern era, really didn't have any pure love that could withstand the test.
"Benefactor." Queen Jinsheng Gong wiped away her tears and solemnly bowed to Tang An and the others.
"This humble woman thanks everyone again for saving my life."
"Queen, don't be polite." Tang An stood up, "Things have passed, I hope you won't worry about this matter in the future."
Queen Jinsheng Gong nodded, "This humble woman will keep the benefactor's words in mind."
Just as the King was hesitating, not knowing what he was thinking, the clouds in the sky changed.
It looked like Guanyin had brought people here.
"King, I will give you and Queen Jinsheng Gong a few more days to consider."
"Whether it is out of gratitude or compromise, I want a final result."
The matter at hand was not important, and they could talk again when they returned. But letting the prey of this tribulation run away would be a loss that outweighed the gain.
"Jiuyue, let's go." Tang An got on Jiuyue's back and let her fly her into mid-air.
Sun Wukong, Yang Jian, and Nezha followed closely behind and flew into the clouds.
"Deities... are they all deities?" The King thought they were powerful, but didn't expect them to have the ability to ascend to heaven and enter the earth?
Hearing this, Queen Jinsheng Gong quickly told the King everything that had happened on Qilin Mountain just now.
In the clouds, a place unreachable by mortals.
Venerable Ananda only heard Guanyin Bodhisattva say that this tribulation had a variable. Before he could ask in detail, he was pulled here by Guanyin Bodhisattva.
"Guanyin Mahasattva, did that monster kill someone?"
"If it's just for this matter, it can't be considered a variable, right?"
"Oh?" Tang An's voice suddenly appeared before the two.
"So in your Buddhist eyes, the death of a few people doesn't even count as a variable."
The obscuring clouds were blown away by Sun Wukong.
Tang An and her group officially appeared before the two.
"Venerable Ananda, first meeting, I didn't bring any gifts."
"How about, will you let me rob you?"
Tang An tapped her finger lightly, and Sun Wukong and the other two surrounded Guanyin Bodhisattva and Venerable Ananda. ===== CHAPTER 233 =====
