Chapter 85: Competing on uncles? Could his uncle be the Jade Emperor?

~8 min read 1,426 words

West Sea Dragon Palace.

The West Sea Dragon King was happily drinking wine and watching beauties dance; how wonderful.

He had no idea what kind of scene he would face next.

"Report~"

"Dragon King, it's Lord Tuolong."

"Oh?" The West Sea Dragon King put down the wine in his hand, looking puzzled, but still had people summon the Tuolong in.

The Tuolong was full of joy and bowed to the West Sea Dragon King after entering.

"Uncle, how has your health been lately?"

"Hmm." Ao Run was very satisfied with the high-spirited nephew before him. "Is there some good news that you've come personally to tell your uncle?"

"Yes, I came here to invite you personally to my Water Mansion."

"Oh?" Ao Run raised his wine cup with great interest. "Tell me, what are you inviting me for?"

"I won't hide it from you, Uncle. Today I captured the Destined One, who is said to grant immortality if eaten."

Ao Run was stunned for a moment, looking at his good nephew with doubt in his eyes. He once hoped that he had misheard.

"Don't worry, Uncle. The Destined One's two disciples were also captured into the Water Mansion with me. Only one monkey with a hairy face and thunder-god mouth is still on the shore, not daring to enter the water."

"Clap!"

The wine cup in Ao Run's hand fell to the ground. He was so shocked that he lost control of his facial expressions, his mouth hanging open, and the wine flowed out of his mouth.

Hehe, a monkey with a hairy face and thunder-god mouth?

Hehe... captured the other two into the Water Mansion?

Hehehehe... very good, very good... the weather today is even better, warming up one's corpse.

It's no exaggeration; at this moment, Ao Run really felt his neck was cold, and his dragon life had come to an end.

"Uncle, what's wrong?"

"You, you, cough cough cough... you..."

Ao Run was both angry and anxious, his face flushed red, but he couldn't say a complete sentence.

"Why are you so excited, Uncle? Could it be that you can't wait either?"

"Why don't you come over with me now?"

As soon as he said the second sentence, the West Sea Dragon King was so scared that he hugged his throne tightly, not daring to move his butt away from the seat for even a second.

No, was his expression not conveyed properly, or was it not accurate enough?

Did he look like he wanted to eat the Destined One?

"Do you know who is beside the Destined One?"

"Do you know what they have done on their journey west?"

"Sigh~" The Tuolong didn't realize the seriousness of the matter at all. "Aren't they just three disciples with some abilities?"

"Except for that monkey with a hairy face and thunder-god mouth, who is Sun Wukong, who caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago, the other two aren't much either. Weren't they still tied up by me and taken to the Water Mansion?"

Ao Run was so scared that his language system was almost garbled. "You... you even know he is the Great Sage Equal to Heaven?"

"Of course I know, but Sun Wukong has never been good at water battles. Uncle fears him, but I, Tuojie, do not."

Ao Run laughed in anger. "He's not good at water battles? Who did you hear that from?"

"Just now when I came out of the Black Water River, he said himself he wasn't good at water battles and didn't entangle with me."

"Hehehe..." Ao Run really laughed. "You two are really one who dares to say it, and one who really dares to believe it."

"He's not good at water battles? Where did his Phoenix-Winged Purple Gold Crown, Golden Chain Mail, and Lotus-Silk Cloud-Walking Boots come from?"

The Tuolong thought about it and did indeed remember that Sun Wukong's equipment all came from the Four Seas.

"Sigh, Uncle, back then weren't you four afraid of his Sea-Stabilizing Needle, so you sent the things to him?"

"You damn fool, you even know that's the Sea-Stabilizing Needle!!!" Ao Run jumped up and punched the Tuolong on the head; he really couldn't stand it. How could he have such a stupid nephew!

"But he said he wasn't good at water battles?" The Tuolong covered his head, very serious and a bit aggrieved.

"He said... he..." Ao Run's expressions were all swear words. "Get out, get out, okay? Get back to your Water Mansion. I'm not your uncle, you have no uncle!"

Indeed, with the Tuolong's death-seeking behavior, if Yang Jian and Nezha were to hold it against him, he might really have no uncle.

"Uncle!" The Tuolong was also unhappy. "I kindly came to invite you to eat the Destined One's meat, why are you treating me with this attitude?"

"Like this? Like that? I haven't kicked you out of the Dragon Palace yet; that's the last bit of affection I have for you as an uncle!"

"You! You bastard, go back and let them go immediately."

"Right, also apologize, pay some treasures, and send those ancestors away properly."

"Otherwise, you really won't have any relatives left in this world!!!" The West Sea Dragon King was so anxious that he was almost crying.

The Tuolong couldn't understand why the West Sea Dragon King, as the master of a sea, was as timid as a mouse.

"Uncle, that Sun Wukong is the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, but he doesn't have the ability to move you, a West Sea Dragon King, right? Why are you so cautious?"

Ao Run took a few deep breaths, clutching his chest.

He couldn't understand how, coming from the same dragon bloodline, such a fool could be produced.

"Do you know the background of the two you captured into the Water Mansion?"

"I don't know, but I don't think there's anything to be afraid of, otherwise they wouldn't have been tied up in the mansion by my seaweed spirit."

"What?" Ao Run thought he had misheard. "You mean you used two pieces of broken seaweed to trap them?"

"Right, there's also a dog, just right to be slaughtered and eaten together."

The West Sea Dragon King almost couldn't catch his breath; he pinched his own philtrum and staggered back to the dragon throne.

"Uncle, what's wrong with you? Why are you getting more and more excited?"

"I'm not your uncle, you're my uncle!" Ao Run gasped for air, feeling his soul gathering at the top of his head, about to fly out.

The key was that he wanted to tell the Tuolong the true identities of Yang Jian and Nezha.

But those two great gods clearly hadn't revealed their names in front of the Tuolong. If they had, even if the Tuolong had eight hundred guts, he wouldn't have dared to do that.

Even more importantly, those two great gods were extremely cooperative with the Tuolong and were really tied up by two pieces of seaweed.

He really couldn't figure out the moves of the two great gods. He was afraid that if he exposed their identities now, he would have no way to survive at all.

"You, you hurry back, listen to me, let them go quickly, apologize, apologize, hurry."

The Tuolong naturally couldn't listen to Ao Run's advice. That was the Destined One he had spent so much effort to capture, and it wasn't easy to win a beauty's smile; how could he bear to let them go just like that?

"Since Uncle doesn't appreciate it, then your nephew will take his leave." After speaking, the Tuolong flicked his sleeves and left.

The West Sea Dragon King leaned on his throne, his eyes gray, as if he had completely lost hope for his dragon life.

"It's over~ everything is over~"

The Turtle Prime Minister beside him asked the Dragon King: "Dragon King, do you want to go to that Water Mansion?"

"Of course I don't..."

The West Sea Dragon King naturally didn't dare to go, but thinking of the mysterious operations of the two great gods, he didn't dare to go, but he didn't dare not to go either.

What if they were just waiting for him on purpose? What if there was a reversal if he went?

"Then, I'll go take a look?"

The Turtle Prime Minister nodded repeatedly, but only felt a wave surge before him.

Looking at the West Sea Dragon King Ao Run on the throne again, he was already gone. ===== CHAPTER 86 =====
