Chapter 352: A Group of Black Monkeys

Human-demon?

Upon hearing this term, Xu Que was stunned for a moment.

Could it be Su Ling'er and her clansmen?

"Ahhh... Kid, save me quickly!"

"Damn it, don't come over, ah, don't force this God Venerable to make a move!"

"Awoo... If you have the guts, don't chase me!"

Er Gouzi's howls rang out incessantly.

Xu Que raised an eyebrow and shook his head: "Bringing this kind of pet along, it's truly embarrassing!"

After saying this, he stepped toward the forest.

But soon, Xu Que froze.

In the forest, black shadows were darting about; there were an extremely large number of them, and their appearances were impossible to make out.

Meanwhile, Er Gouzi was being chased by these countless black shadows, shouting while jumping around in a panic, clutching its head.

"Bang!"

At this moment, a black shadow collided with Er Gouzi's back, emitting a dull thud. The black shadow fell to the ground with a 'thump', while Er Gouzi remained unharmed, continuing to howl as it fled.

Xu Que was speechless, his gaze sweeping toward the black shadow on the ground, and his eyes suddenly widened.

Lying on the ground was actually a black monkey!

The monkey's build was like that of an adult human, very thin, its entire body covered in pitch-black, oily fur, and it wore a skirt woven from weeds between its legs, like an ancient ape-man, to cover its shame.

Clearly, this black monkey had just ambushed Er Gouzi, but after colliding with Er Gouzi, it had fainted on the spot.

After all, Er Gouzi's cheap bones were truly not something an ordinary person could break.

Moreover, Xu Que had previously witnessed a Nascent Soul stage cultivator fighting Er Gouzi.

The result was that after the Nascent Soul stage cultivator struck Er Gouzi, he ended up with a broken bone himself.

But this black monkey had collided so violently and only fainted now; it was clear that this monkey's physical body was also quite extraordinary.

"Awoo, kid, you're finally here. Quick, quick, release the Sword Spirit to wipe them out! These human-demons have gone crazy!" At this moment, seeing Xu Que appear, Er Gouzi immediately ran over as if it had grabbed a life-saving straw.

Xu Que's mouth twitched fiercely: "You've gone crazy, haven't you? These are monkeys, where would any human-demons come from?"

"Since when do monkeys act like this? These monkeys look like both humans and demons, and they can even speak human language. Isn't that just a human-demon?" Er Gouzi shouted while running.

Xu Que was speechless: "Don't you also speak human language? Why don't you say you're a human-demon too?"

"This God Venerable is different from them!"

"Right, that's correct, you belong to the dog human-demon category!" Xu Que nodded.

Er Gouzi's face was immediately full of annoyance, but it didn't dare to challenge Xu Que, so it could only pull a long face and flee back quickly.

Xu Que then swept his gaze toward the dense, countless black shadows in the forest.

It was very clear that these black shadows chasing Er Gouzi were all black monkeys!

And according to what Er Gouzi said, these black monkeys could even speak, which meant they were demon beasts that had already opened their spiritual intelligence.

Xu Que was immediately delighted. He stepped forward, focused his Qi into his dantian, and shouted loudly: "All of you, stop!"

This shout carried his massive Divine Sense power, piercing through the entire scene!

The trees, flowers, and grass in the forest swayed one after another, and all the black shadows stopped abruptly with a 'swish'.

In an instant, all the trees were filled with dense black monkeys, and all their pitch-black pupils were gathered on Xu Que.

Xu Que took a step forward, hands on his hips, and asked domineeringly: "What are you doing? Haven't you heard that to beat a dog, one must look at its master? Call your Monkey King out!"

"Damn it, this God Venerable is not a dog!" Er Gouzi ran back and shouted, looking unconvinced.

However, no one paid any attention to Er Gouzi.

Xu Que examined the black monkeys in the forest. The group of black monkeys was scratching their ears and butts, also curiously examining Xu Que, looking very innocent and cute.

Xu Que was immediately puzzled. Such cute monkeys, why would they collectively mobilize for no reason to attack Er Gouzi?

He immediately turned his head to look at Er Gouzi and asked: "Er Gouzi, did you stir up trouble again? Did you mess with their female monkeys?"

Er Gouzi widened its eyes and said: "Kid, don't talk nonsense. This God Venerable is self-respecting; how could I do such a shallow thing?"

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, a dull thud came from the forest, and a tall, sturdy black monkey suddenly darted out.

With a 'thump', it landed heavily in front of the group of monkeys, as if it were a Monkey King, its whole body exuding a very strange aura.

Xu Que was somewhat surprised; he couldn't detect the realm or strength of this Black Monkey King at all, and that strange aura seemed very ancient, completely out of place in this world.

And it wasn't just this Black Monkey King; all the other monkeys also carried this aura.

Xu Que couldn't help but frown.

At this moment, the Black Monkey King's gaze suddenly stared fiercely at Er Gouzi, and it roared: "You are bold and reckless, desecrating our Divine Tree. Today, your blood must be used to wash it clean!"

"Hiss!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Que was shocked. He gasped and slapped Er Gouzi's face directly!

"Slap!"

"Awoo! Kid, what are you doing?" Er Gouzi howled, widening its eyes in anger.

Xu Que said in shock: "Are you crazy? I thought you messed with their female monkeys, but I didn't expect you to be so insane as to mess with their Divine Tree?"

"Ah?"

Er Gouzi was stunned on the spot.

Inserting into their tree hole?

The next moment, it suddenly reacted, rushed toward Xu Que in shame and anger, and shouted: "Damn it, this God Venerable will fight you to the death!"

Xu Que was immediately happy; he had finally found an opportunity to teach it a lesson.

"Lie down for me!"

He shouted loudly and quickly recited the incantation.

"Awoo!"

The golden dog collar on Er Gouzi's neck suddenly shrank rapidly, and its whole body fell to the ground, rolling around.

"Ah, kid, stop quickly. This God Venerable was wrong! I was really wrong!" it shouted loudly.

Xu Que then stopped, smiling faintly: "Where were you wrong?"

Er Gouzi lay on the ground, looking at the sky with a face full of despair, and took a few heavy breaths!

After a few seconds, it stood up and said indignantly: "Who the hell knows where I was wrong? This God Venerable just took a leak under a tree, and then this group of monkeys rushed out saying it was a Divine Tree. Don't you think I'm wronged? They clearly wanted to frame me!"

"Damn, I just turned the Imperial City into a civilized ancient city, and you come out and urinate everywhere, and you still have the nerve to say you're wronged?" Xu Que said angrily.

Er Gouzi immediately wilted, turning its head to the side, pretending it hadn't heard anything.

At this moment, the tall black monkey walked out and said coldly: "Hmph, you trespassed into our ancestral land, which is already a capital crime. Now that you've desecrated the Divine Tree, don't even think about leaving!"

"Wait, why do you say this is your ancestral land? Do you have proof? Do you have a land deed?" Xu Que asked, widening his eyes.

The Black Monkey King was stunned for a moment, then followed up by saying: "This place has been our ancestral land for countless years. We have lived here for generations, guarding our ancestors. Why would we need any proof?"

"You're wrong about that. This place is within the borders of the Golden Yuan Kingdom, and I am the future Crown Prince of the Golden Yuan Kingdom. All in all, this land belongs to me!" Xu Que said with a smile.

The Black Monkey King shook its head: "No matter what kingdom you are, this place does not belong to your human race. If it weren't for the recent changes in heaven and earth, causing the Five Elements Seal suppressing our ancestors to suddenly weaken, you would never have had the chance to see this place."
