Chapter 69: Coaxed the Wujiguo King into Limping

~7 min read 1,351 words

According to what the Wujiguo King said, Tang An roughly knew the process of him coming to find her.

It was Jinjiao and Yinjiao who publicized the good deeds of Tang An and her group, and even led the minor demons to build a cave in the mountains specifically for people to offer incense and worship Tang An and her three disciples.

After the deeds spread, the Night Wandering God heard about it.

The Night Wandering God specifically went to find Jinjiao and Yinjiao to confirm the story that Tang An and her three disciples had truly helped them. From then on, he made up his mind to let the Wujiguo King seek her help.

He had heard Jinjiao and Yinjiao repeatedly urge that if one wanted those three great gods to help, one must first obtain the consent of the Destined One.

And so, Tang An and the others had just arrived, and were targeted by the Night Wandering God. As soon as Tang An entered a dream, he sent the Wujiguo King into her dream.

"So that's how it is."

No wonder her merit had been rising recently, and the virtue she lacked had been made up in a very fast way, only increasing and not decreasing. She even accidentally unlocked an accumulated incense account.

It turned out that Jinjiao and Yinjiao had set up temples for them for people to offer incense and worship.

And the wishes that mortals made to the four of them were all fulfilled by Jinjiao and Yinjiao leading the minor demons. It was equivalent to a different kind of repayment to Tang An and the others, helping them accumulate merit.

Although the three of them, Nezha and the others, didn't lack that bit of merit, Jinjiao and Yinjiao's sincerity meant it wasn't helping them in vain.

"As expected, every cause must have a result; their retribution, whether good or evil, is me."

Tang An looked at the Wujiguo King, "I can save you and let you have a family reunion with your wife and son."

"But you also know that I am neither a god nor a Buddha; I am just a mortal."

"Transactions between mortals have gains and losses."

The Wujiguo King understood, "May I ask what the Immortal wants?"

"I already said I'm not an immortal, just a so-called Destined One. But removing the title of Destined One, I am still a princess of the Great Tang of the East."

"So, the price for you to come back to life is to exchange it with your territory."

The Wujiguo King retreated in horror; he didn't expect Tang An to have such a big plan.

"Look at you, what kind of reaction is this?"

"In life, you can't have both, right?" Tang An used the PUA rhetoric she had learned before on the Wujiguo King.

"Think about it, you're dead; not only can you not be King, but your wife will be someone else's, and your son will have to call someone else 'Dad'."

"Think about it? Can you endure this?"

The Wujiguo King had thousands of words to refute Tang An, but was blocked and couldn't say a word.

"Although the words are rough, the logic isn't, but your words are too..."

Tang An held back her laughter and continued: "Although my words are unpleasant, you can't refute me, right?"

"And what's so good about being an emperor? Look, didn't you die suddenly in your early years?"

"Immortal, I was harmed by someone."

"That's not important; what's important is, just tell me, are you dead or not?"

"I..."

Tang An continued: "And also, you don't have three thousand beauties in your harem, only a Queen and a Crown Prince as a son; why don't you take the position of King that you've already lost and exchange it for a family reunion, and be a rich and leisurely City Lord?"

"I..." The Wujiguo King tried to speak several times, but was rendered speechless by Tang An.

"Hmm? You what?"

"I... I..." The Wujiguo King sighed and bowed in frustration. "I'll leave it to the Immortal to decide."

"That's more like it." Tang An patted his shoulder, "Only when a person is dead is everything truly gone. And I, by saving your life and letting you continue to be a City Lord and enjoy your old age, have already earned it for you."

Having persuaded the King, Tang An looked around in the dream.

"Night Wandering God, I know you can also see my dream; come out now and write a receipt for our family, and this matter will be done."

Her voice was empty, with echoes, but the Night Wandering God did not appear.

"Night Wandering God? Night Wandering God?"

"If you don't come out, I'm going to call someone?"

"One~"

"Two~"

"Disci..."

"The little immortal is here, the little immortal is here~"

The Night Wandering God wiped his sweat and hurriedly appeared, "The little immortal has met the Destined One."

"You write the receipt, you stamp it. When the matter is done, you give me the receipt, and our lives and goods will be cleared."

"Do you have any objections?"

The Night Wandering God and the Wujiguo King shook their heads like rattles. Did they dare to have objections? Could their objections have any effect?

Clearly, they couldn't.

Under the witness of the Night Wandering God, the two wrote a receipt and pressed their handprints.

Tang An wasn't afraid of them having any tricks; firstly, with the strength of their team, dealing with a Night Wandering God was about the same as dealing with a minor monster.

Secondly, even if the Wujiguo King went back on his word after coming back to life, it wouldn't be a big problem.

After all, she only needed to write a letter saying that the Wujiguo King had offered his country and then went back on his word to play her, and then what Wujiguo would face would no longer be her, Tang An.

But, the hundreds of thousands of iron cavalry of the Great Tang!

At the hour of Chen.

Tang An felt several gazes staring at her and woke up at once.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she was met with three enlarged handsome faces, leaning in to examine her.

"What... are you doing?"

Sun Wukong smiled, full of curiosity. "Master, what kind of happy event did you dream of last night that you could laugh all night?"

Nezha added: "And you laughed very lewdly."

"Lewdly?" Tang An sat up with a "thump," "Is the word 'lewd' appropriate to describe me? I clearly..."

"Hey~"

"What's wrong?" Nezha asked.

"What did I dream of last night?"

Yang Jian asked in confusion: "You don't remember what you dreamed of?"

"Is it strange that I don't remember?" Tang An patted her forehead, always feeling that she had dreamed of a big bargain last night and made some major decision.

It's a pity, she just couldn't think of what she had dreamed of.

Night Wandering God: "Damn it! Forgot that some people forget all their dreams after waking up!"

"Forget it if you forget it." Sun Wukong's mentality had always been very good, "Master, what kind of buns do you want to eat in the morning? Nezha and I will go and come back."

"Buying breakfast, do you need both of you great gods to go together?"

"Hi~ Isn't it also to understand the customs of Wujiguo and have some fun? I'm afraid that if I play too hard, I'll forget Master's breakfast."

"Fine." Tang An patted her butt and got up, "Same as usual, anything is fine." She took out her purse and gave it to Sun Wukong and Nezha; it was full of small silver pieces that had been exchanged.

"If you like other things, you can buy them; your master has plenty of money, if it's not enough, come back and get more." Tang An patted her chest, extremely generous.

After all, she had many treasures on her now, and the thing she lacked the least was money. ===== CHAPTER 70 =====
