Tang An cleared her throat and stood up to formally introduce her team.

"This one is my eldest disciple Sun Wukong, and my second disciple Yang Jian. They went to the Underworld before, and we probably know about your predicament."

"Your killing sins are too heavy, and although you can command a million underworld soldiers, you can no longer enter reincarnation."

"And because you have troops and weight, and your killing spirit is too strong, you are not tolerated by the Underworld and were persuaded to come out."

"Helplessly, you can only take them and wander between heaven and earth, drifting without support. Where you walk, the underworld soldiers borrow the path, and the underworld energy is extremely heavy, which is very easy to be wiped out by the Heavenly Court."

"So you can only stand as king in this White Bone Mountain, trying to control the underworld energy in one place, not spreading, and not disturbing the people of the world."

"But this is not a long-term method. Over time, the underworld energy in the human world will be prosperous, and it will inevitably cause disaster, and the Heavenly Court will inevitably send troops to wipe it out."

"Taking advantage of the fact that things have not yet reached the point of being unmanageable, it is better to borrow a force to live in. Once there is a place to accumulate merit in a justified way, the killing sins will naturally have a day to be offset."

Bai Qi looked at Tang An, and then at Sun Wukong and the three behind Tang An.

"You mean, you already have the best solution?"

"Could it be that you can still write a letter to the Heavenly Court? Let the million underworld soldiers all belong to the Heavenly Court?"

Bai Qi's eyes didn't seem willing, faintly carrying a cold color.

"No, no, no, why should such a good thing be cheap for the Heavenly Court." Tang An didn't know that the solution given by the Heavenly Court to them was nothing more than two kinds.

Either recruit or eliminate.

But Tang An thought about it all the way, and no matter how she thought about it, she didn't want to be cheap for the Heavenly Court. What if they rebelled after taking the scriptures? Wouldn't that be equivalent to adding trouble to herself?

A million underworld soldiers, what a piece of fat meat this is.

Instead of being cheap for others, it's better to be cheap for yourself.

"General, look."

Tang An pulled up all three disciples, "This is my eldest disciple Sun Wukong, the legendary Great Sage Equal to Heaven. Before becoming the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, he was known as the Demon King."

"This is my second disciple Yang Jian, the Judicial God of the Three Realms, who has private soldiers under his command, one thousand two hundred grass-headed gods."

"This is my youngest disciple Nezha, the Great God of the Three Altars of the Sea, who holds heavy troops in the Three Realms and is invincible."

"General, you can choose to belong to the Heavenly Court, or you can choose to belong to one of my three disciples."

"No matter who it is, no matter how you choose, you can get a position in the Heavenly Court. With a position, you can accumulate merit."

Bai Qi carefully thought about Tang An's words. "Listening to what you said, although they belong to the Heavenly Court, they seem to be at odds with the Heavenly Court?"

"This... how to explain it?" Tang An scratched her head. "You can understand it as one of the wishes of our four master and disciples, which is to rebel against the Heavenly Court once."

"And the three of them combined have the confidence to rebel as soon as they say so."

"So, we definitely hope you can stand on our side. After all, everyone likes to fight, and you don't have to worry about the eight words 'having troops and weight, the emperor's suspicion'."

Tang An was not afraid of this being known by Bai Qi, and even less afraid of him spreading it widely. After all, the style of these three great rebels, which god in the sky, including the Jade Emperor, doesn't know it like a mirror in their hearts.

Bai Qi didn't speak for a long time, but looked at Tang An and her three disciples.

It must be said that he was really moved by what Tang An said.

Tang An was not in a hurry, sat back on the stool, picked up fruit to eat, and waited for Bai Qi's answer.

"Hey." Tang An suddenly paused and asked the White Bone Spirit. "Will eating your fruit cause diarrhea?"

"Huh?" The White Bone Spirit was stunned by her question. For a skeleton monster like her, this question was obviously out of bounds.

No, in such a serious atmosphere, is it really suitable to ask this?

"If you are afraid of diarrhea, you can not eat it."

"That's right." Tang An put down the fruit and took away the fruit in Sun Wukong's hand.

Sun Wukong was stunned, and immediately thought of why Tang An took his fruit.

"Master! We agreed not to mention it!"

"I didn't mention it, I'm just afraid you'll have diarrhea and add to your dark history."

Three black lines fell on Sun Wukong's forehead, he threw the fruit and didn't eat it.

One dark history is enough, it can't come again, otherwise, no matter where he goes, being mentioned by Tang An is more terrible than any Tight-Fillet Spell.

"Good." Bai Qi said abruptly.

"Good?" Tang An took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands, "General, have you thought about it?"

"Hmm." Bai Qi had been observing them just now, and finally locked his eyes on Sun Wukong.

"Him, is it feasible?"

Sun Wukong was also stunned, "Old Sun? Why do you want to choose Old Sun?"

Bai Qi replied: "Because you are called the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, although you have a name, you are not controlled by heaven. Hanging an empty position, free and easy. And what I want is the same approach as you."

"Of course, I will remember this favor today. If one day I need this king to take action, this king will naturally do his best to help."

His words were very clear; he wanted to be like Sun Wukong, hanging under the banner of the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

This way, he could be like Sun Wukong, not controlled by heaven, and continue to live his free and easy days.

Of course, if they needed to use his power, then Bai Qi naturally had no second words.

Tang An looked at Sun Wukong, "Wukong, what do you think?"

Wukong laughed a few times, "Old Sun is fine, but hanging under Old Sun's name, you can't do those bad things of monsters."

"Otherwise, Old Sun will definitely hold that Golden Cudgel and level your million underworld soldiers."

Hearing this, Tang An was relieved.

"Don't worry, he won't."

"Oh?" Sun Wukong asked curiously: "Master, why do you say that?"

Bai Qi was also puzzled, "Everyone says I am the Ghost King, why do you call me General?"

Tang An didn't explain anything, but stood up and bowed to Bai Qi. "Your achievements are already known to later generations."

Bai Qi's tiger body shook, "How do you know about the affairs of later generations?"

"Heavenly secrets cannot be leaked." Tang An also learned from those gods who play deep.

Bai Qi's eyes were complicated, with rolling waves. But Tang An didn't say much, and he didn't ask any more questions.

"Since that's the case, please ask the Great Sage Equal to Heaven to seek a position for me and seek a stable place for the million underworld soldiers." He also stood up and bowed. For him, this favor is so heavy.

"Easy to say, easy to say." Sun Wukong helped Bai Qi up and looked at Yang Jian.

"Brother Yang Jian, you and I go to the Heavenly Court together and handle this matter, how about it?"

"Hmm." Yang Jian nodded, and then he and Sun Wukong turned into two streams of light and disappeared into the sky.

If Sun Wukong handled this matter alone, it might be a bit troublesome, or it might be rejected by the Jade Emperor, or it might be stuck in the process and made difficult.

But Yang Jian, who is in charge of the rules, went, and things became much easier. After all, no small immortal who doesn't want to die dares to block the process of the Judicial God.

Tang An and Nezha stayed in the Skeleton Cave, and Bai Qi also went back to wait for news.

One day in the sky, one year on the ground, so the two of them went to handle things this time, and for Tang An in the human world, they wouldn't be back for ten days or half a month.

"Nezha, Nezha!"

Tang An suddenly called Nezha's name in her sleep.

Nezha was meditating nearby and didn't go far. He hurriedly came over to check Tang An's situation, thinking it was some little ghost who wasn't afraid of death who had entangled her.

But after arriving, he found that Tang An was talking in her sleep.

"Pagoda! Pagoda!"

Speaking to the point of excitement, Tang An sat up directly.

"What pagoda?" Nezha didn't look like Tang An was having a nightmare, but more like she was woken up by excitement.

And Tang An's spirit didn't look like she had just woken up. She said excitedly: "I dreamed of Laojun's cow, and I thought of a wonderful plan. Do you want to hear it?"
