Chapter 357: Our lineup is indeed not very friendly to monsters, huh?

~8 min read 1,410 words

Tang An leaned over and crouched in front of them. "Know fear now?"

Not to mention King Bihan and the others, who wouldn't be afraid of offending the God of Wealth?

"How about this, let's not say our lineup is bullying you."

"Let's have a fair, just, and open competition. Any of them, including me, you can choose."

"If you win, not only will you not die, but you will regain your freedom, and from now on, the world is yours to roam."

"If you lose, you won't die either. But you must do good deeds in Jinping Prefecture for thirty years without receiving any benefits. At the same time, protect the peace of my Great Tang border."

"After thirty years, if you have done well, you can still gain your freedom. You can even join my Jie Sect."

"If you don't do well..." Tang An didn't finish her sentence, only carrying a faint, non-existent smile. "You can guess the outcome."

King Bihan was puzzled. "Great Tang border? Isn't this Tianzhu?"

Tang An sat back in the grand master chair, crossed her legs, and leaned back.

"This palace says this is Great Tang, and from now on, this will be Great Tang territory."

"You only need to answer me whether you will compete or not. You don't need to worry about other things."

The three rhinoceros monsters looked at each other, then looked at the people behind Tang An.

Sun Wukong, Yang Jian, and Nezha, who had fought them before, naturally didn't need to be mentioned. They knew in their hearts how badly they had been beaten.

As for the God of Wealth, whether he could fight was one thing, but just the title of God of Wealth was enough to make them not dare to offend him.

Tang An saw them hesitating and clapped her hands to stand up. "How about this, out of basic respect for opponents, we should also give a rough introduction on our side."

"After all, if you choose after we introduce, it won't be considered us bullying you."

As she spoke, Tang An walked to Sun Wukong's side and began to introduce them one by one.

"This one is Sun Wukong, who caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago."

"Snap!" King Bihan's axe dropped.

"This one is the Jade Emperor's own nephew, the Judicial God of the Heavenly Court, Yang Jian."

"Snap!" King Bishu's big knife dropped.

"This one is the Great God of the Three Altars of the Sea, Nezha, who holds a pagoda and killed the Supreme Commander of the Heavenly Court not long ago."

"Snap!" King Bichen's rattan whip dropped.

Hehe...

Is this really not bullying monsters?

Can this be fought? Fight against whom?

No wonder they could easily beat the three of them into this state; they really didn't suffer the beating in vain!

"As for this one, it seems you have already guessed. He is the current Martial God of Wealth of the Heavenly Court, Zhao Gongming."

"I won't introduce how well he could fight in the past, because I never thought you would dare to make a move against him."

"The last one is named Kong Xuan. He..." Tang An looked at the wrong options she had excluded for them, and if she continued to exclude, she would be sending herself to the monsters, wouldn't that still be bullying them?

"I won't introduce him much, anyway, he is just as you see."

Kong Xuan was flashed by Tang An and almost couldn't maintain his image.

"Why is there nothing for me?"

Tang An whispered, "You are too good at fighting, if they don't choose you, they can only choose me."

Kong Xuan thought it was reasonable. "Alright then, no introduction it is."

The three rhinoceros monsters wiped their sweat. Tang An had helped them exclude the previous wrong answers, and now the only ones left to choose from were Kong Xuan and Tang An.

King Bishu carefully sized up the two. Although there seemed to be no fluctuation of magic power on Kong Xuan, being able to appear here out of thin air could only mean one thing.

He was already so powerful that he had returned to his original state, able to use magic power and laws freely.

If that was really the case, the three of them might not even have the chance to make a move before being killed in seconds.

Thus, the three of them looked at Tang An in unison.

"Me?"

"I just mentioned myself casually."

"You three monsters, you wouldn't really want to make a move against a mortal like me, would you?"

The three of them nodded firmly, obviously their choice was unprecedentedly consistent and determined not to change.

Tang An nodded. "Alright, I accept the challenge."

"But let's make it clear first, no crying later."

"Huh?" Their expressions changed. King Bichen asked, "Aren't you a mortal?"

"Yes, I am a mortal, a genuine mortal, without a shred of magic power on me."

The three rhinoceros monsters breathed a sigh of relief; as long as she was a mortal, they could still win.

Sun Wukong clapped his legs in the back, amused. "Those three monsters, who else could they choose, they just had to choose Master."

"Hey, Wukong, how can you say that? They wouldn't have had a good time choosing anyone else anyway." Tang An had a humble demeanor.

With their lineup, it was indeed too unfriendly to monsters.

Zhao Gongming snorted coldly. "Fighting is fighting, but if you hurt her, you have to die."

King Bichen was impulsive again. "Didn't you just say that if we win, you'll let us go? Now we haven't even fought, and you're already going back on your word?"

Zhao Gongming lifted his chin slightly, looking at King Bichen with contempt. "Are you negotiating terms with this god?"

"Don't dare, don't dare." King Bihan and King Bishu hurriedly pulled their third brother back.

"Hmph." Zhao Gongming didn't even bother to talk nonsense with them. "The one who listed the rules just now was her, not this god."

"If it were up to me, you wouldn't die if you lost."

"But if you hurt her in order to win..." Zhao Gongming glared, and a pressure poured down.

"Die!"

This word "die" almost shook the three rhinoceros monsters' primordial spirits out of their bodies.

Facing Zhao Gongming's pressure, they knelt on the ground, vomiting blood.

"Old Brother Gongming." Tang An played the good cop. "I set the rules, don't make things difficult for them."

She walked over, helped the three monsters up, and gave each of them a recovery pill.

"Don't listen to him, the rules are still as I said before."

The three rhinoceros brothers looked at each other, already knowing what kind of disaster they had brewed today.

Even if Tang An said she set the rules, so what?

The important thing was the few people behind her; if they really wanted to kill them, they had the ability to kill them in seconds at any time.

Seeing that the rhythm and heat were controlled just about right, Tang An's smile switched in a second, becoming serious.

"I can do what I promised you, and I can save your lives."

"But if you lose and don't follow the rules we agreed on."

"I don't need to elaborate on the outcome, right?"

"Yes!" The three of them knelt on one knee to salute; they were clearly beaten into submission.

As for whether they could win in the end, they no longer held any hope.

After all, compared to dying for a moment of freedom and losing but still having a chance to join the Jie Sect, the weight of the two was clear at a glance.

"Since it's all agreed, let's start."

Tang An signaled for everyone to move aside, leaving an empty space for them to fight.

"You don't need to think about going easy on me, since we're fighting, fight me fair and square."

"Although I, Tang An, am a mortal, I have some skills."

"You can't take it lightly when fighting me."

As she spoke, Tang An took out the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi from the Wealth Gathering Ring.

"Of course, before we start, we have a fist-and-palm salute before martial arts in Great Tang."

"I won't bully you for not knowing etiquette, learn it from me, perform the salute, and we'll officially start fighting." ===== CHAPTER 358 =====
