Chapter 160: Black Water River, Red Boy Who Won't Give Up
Demon King Jiao agreed to Red Boy's request without even thinking. It seemed he really liked Red Boy.
"Second Uncle, I want you to help me block the scripture-seeker." Upon hearing Demon King Jiao say this, Red Boy said seriously.
"Scripture-seeker? Why block them?" Demon King Jiao was somewhat puzzled.
"I accidentally heard my mother say that blocking the scripture-seeker earns merit. Previously, when I was in Hao Mountain, Dry Pine Stream, there were simply too many people on their side, and I was simply no match for them, so I let them pass." Speaking of this, Red Boy lowered his head in embarrassment.
"No problem. Isn't it just blocking the scripture-seeker? Second Uncle will help with this favor." Seeing Red Boy like this, Demon King Jiao directly agreed.
"Thank you, Second Uncle. Right, Second Uncle, the scripture-seeker should have reached the Black Water River by now, right?" Red Boy asked.
"This Second Uncle really doesn't know. What characteristics does the scripture-seeker have?" Demon King Jiao asked.
To tell the truth, he really didn't know about the westward journey. In this life, Sun Wukong didn't swear brotherhood with them, so there were only six Great Sages in this life, and they didn't participate in the westward journey, so they knew very little about it.
"Yes, yes." Upon hearing Demon King Jiao's inquiry, Red Boy quickly said.
Subsequently, he told Demon King Jiao about the situation of Xuanzang and the others. Upon hearing Red Boy's description, Demon King Jiao's brow immediately frowned.
"Second Uncle, what's wrong?" Seeing Demon King Jiao's brow frown, Red Boy asked.
"The scripture-seeker you mentioned, I seem to have seen them." Demon King Jiao pondered for a moment and said.
"Has the scripture-seeker already come?" Red Boy was full of excitement.
Demon King Jiao nodded, and then with a wave of his hand, countless water vapors formed the appearance of Ao Mo'ang and appeared before Red Boy.
"Yes, yes, yes, that's them. Second Uncle, where are they now? I heard my mother say back then that we only need to cause some difficulties for them on their scripture-seeking journey, and we don't need to do anything else, and we can obtain merit." Seeing Ao Mo'ang, Red Boy was full of excitement.
"At this time, they should have already crossed the Black Water River, right?" Upon hearing Red Boy's words, Demon King Jiao said.
"Come, come, hurry and stop them." Upon hearing this, Red Boy shouted loudly.
The small demons around looked at each other and turned their gazes toward Demon King Jiao.
"Since my nephew Saint Infant wants merit, then Second Uncle will help you with this favor. Come, intercept the scripture-seeker." Demon King Jiao waved his hand and said.
"Yes!" After receiving Demon King Jiao's order, those small demons immediately turned and left. They were going to intercept the scripture-seeker.
"Thank you, Second Uncle!" Red Boy said with a smile.
"Hahahaha!" Seeing Red Boy's cute appearance, Demon King Jiao laughed loudly.
On the Black Water River, just as Xuanzang and the others were about to reach the shore, a huge wave suddenly appeared before them and blocked them.
Seeing this huge wave, Ao Mo'ang's expression instantly turned gloomy. He had kindly let this Demon King Jiao off, but he didn't expect him to be so ungrateful. Then there was no need for him to save face for him.
"This is? Not giving you face?" The Black Bear Demon looked at Ao Mo'ang and said, which was simply asking the wrong question.
"Since this Demon King Jiao is ungrateful, then everyone doesn't need to worry about my face. I'm actually not very familiar with him either." Ao Mo'ang's face had no expression.
"Since that's the case, let us loosen our muscles and bones. The demons in this Black Water River have pretty good strength; they should be able to make us happy." The water ape said at this moment.
"Okay!" Ao Mo'ang nodded.
After receiving Ao Mo'ang's agreement, the demons led by the water ape and Xiaoyue directly summoned their weapons and rushed into the huge wave. In just an instant, a crimson color appeared in the huge wave.
After a few breaths, the huge wave disappeared, and the Black Water River was covered with corpses. The pitch-black river water was dyed red, and those demons were full of excitement. They hadn't made a move for a long time since they became Xuanzang's disciples, and today they finally released the pressure they had been under for so long.
"You killed my people, and you want to leave so simply?" After solving the people in the huge wave, Xuanzang and the others prepared to leave, but then Demon King Jiao's voice appeared in their ears.
The next second, Demon King Jiao appeared in the eyes of the crowd with Red Boy. At this time, Demon King Jiao's eyes were full of frost and anger. These small demons were the family foundation he had saved up over several hundred years. In just a short while, they had suffered heavy casualties, which made Demon King Jiao very angry.
"I wondered what was going on; so it was you, little child, who made this demon change his mind!" Seeing Red Boy, Sun Wukong said with a smile. Although his face was full of smiles, his eyes were full of cold light.
"Hmph! Back then in Dry Pine Stream, I didn't have so many people in my hands, so I had to let you leave. Now that my Second Uncle is here, don't even think about leaving the Black Water River. I heard that eating the scripture-seeker's meat can grant immortality, and even allow bloodline transformation. This Great King has decided to eat you today." Red Boy looked at Xuanzang and said extremely arrogantly.
After saying this, Red Boy glanced at Demon King Jiao. He found that a ray of light flashed in Demon King Jiao's eyes. Seeing the light in Demon King Jiao's eyes, Red Boy knew his plan had succeeded.
Actually, this last sentence was specifically said for Demon King Jiao to hear. Demon King Jiao had always had a wish, which was to transform from a Jiao into a Dragon, so when he heard that the scripture-seeker's flesh and blood could allow bloodline transformation, he would definitely take action. Sure enough, he was interested.
If Demon King Jiao blocking Xuanzang and the others before was to help Red Boy, then now it was entirely for himself. These were two different concepts.
Helping Red Boy, he could retreat at an appropriate time, but for himself, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, Demon King Jiao would continue to attack.
"Nephew Saint Infant, what you just said, is it true?" Demon King Jiao looked at Red Boy and asked. He was breathing somewhat rapidly when he spoke.
"Of course!" Red Boy nodded.
"Hahahaha, good, good!" Demon King Jiao suddenly laughed loudly.
The next second, the entire Black Water River boiled. After a few breaths, the Black Water River was filled with the small demons under Demon King Jiao.
"Listen to this King's order, kill, capture the monk alive for this King." Demon King Jiao shouted loudly, and then took the initiative to charge toward Xuanzang and the others.
"A mere Earth Immortal, peak Heavenly Immortal, dares to act wild?" The Black Bear Demon snorted coldly, and then took the initiative to face Demon King Jiao.
The Black Bear Demon mainly cultivated fire attributes, while Demon King Jiao mainly cultivated water attributes. They were both at the peak of the Heavenly Immortal realm. When they faced each other, it would depend on who was better.
After Demon King Jiao launched his charge, the small demons behind him also followed. Xuanzang and the others looked at these small demons and simply couldn't raise any interest, but the demons he had newly accepted had great interest.
"Kill!" Seeing that Yang Jian and the others didn't make a move, Xiaoyue knew they wouldn't make a move, so next was their performance.
After Xiaoyue and the others rushed out, Ao Mo'ang waved his hand, and the river water immediately transformed into a few chairs: "Let's sit and watch."
"Hahahaha, good idea." Sun Wukong said with a smile, and then sat on a chair. After that, Sun Wukong waved his hand, and a table appeared before them.
"Since that's the case, how can there be no food?" Yang Jian said with a smile.
After Yang Jian waved his hand, some spiritual fruits and human snacks appeared on the table. These were actually prepared for Yang Chan. Yang Chan was a little foodie, and Yang Jiao and Yang Jian pampered their younger sister very much, so they always had snacks on them, which just happened to be used now.
"Very good, very good!" Dapeng picked up a spiritual fruit and said with a smile.
"Arrogant, truly arrogant." Seeing this scene, Demon King Jiao and Red Boy were furious. This was mockery, naked mockery.
But they had no way, because now they simply couldn't get close to Xuanzang. The strength of the demons under him was truly powerful, all of them were Golden Immortals, and it looked like they hadn't used their full strength at all, but were fighting the small demons under Demon King Jiao with the posture of a cat playing with a mouse.
And on Demon King Jiao's side, the Black Bear Demon slowly gained the upper hand. After all, the Black Bear Demon cultivated the most orthodox Fire Bear inheritance, while Demon King Jiao had cultivated to this day relying on his own talent. Just from the cultivation technique, Demon King Jiao was one level lower than the Black Bear Demon.
After two hundred rounds of fighting, the Black Bear Demon punched Demon King Jiao on the shoulder. Demon King Jiao instantly flew backward, leaving a charred mark on his shoulder, and the weapon in his hand fell into the Black Water River.
"Don't play anymore, we still have to hurry on our way." At this time, Dapeng suddenly said.
At the beginning, they felt it was somewhat interesting, but as time passed, they felt somewhat bored. After all, the trick of a cat playing with a mouse was only interesting at the first glance.
Upon hearing Dapeng's words, the force in the hands of those demons instantly strengthened, and the demons fighting against them suffered. One second they were fighting back and forth, and the next second they directly received their lunch boxes. They died without even knowing how they died.
From the time Dapeng spoke until the Black Water River calmed down, it was only a short dozen breaths of time.
After they killed the demons under Demon King Jiao, they set their sights on Red Boy. In just an instant, Red Boy felt thousands of malicious intents gathering on his body, which made his muscles instantly tense up. He had even mobilized his essence blood; as long as there was movement on the opposite side, he would immediately use the blood-burning escape to flee here.
Seeing this, Demon King Jiao knew the situation was gone. He saw him roar, directly transformed into his true form, then used his tail to roll up Red Boy, and then fled without looking back.
"Don't chase a desperate foe!" Just as the Black Bear Demon wanted to chase, he was stopped by Yang Jian.
"No fun, I thought this Demon King Jiao was how powerful, but I didn't expect him to be a soft egg." The Black Bear Demon came to Yang Jian and the others, casually picked up a spiritual fruit and took a bite.
"That's called assessing the situation. Now, on the entire Black Water River, except for him and that little child, the rest are all our people. Even if we and you don't make a move, just those thousand Golden Immortals are not something Demon King Jiao can resist." Xuanzang said at this moment.
On the other side, in a large mountain, Demon King Jiao and Red Boy fell here.
"Cough, cough, cough!" Demon King Jiao coughed a few times, and after spitting out a large mouthful of dirty blood, he felt a little better.
"I'm sorry, Second Uncle, I shouldn't have come to find you, but I really didn't know their strength was so strong. Back then when they were in Dry Pine Stream, they didn't show any strength at all." Red Boy looked at the seriously injured Demon King Jiao at a loss.
"No matter!" Demon King Jiao looked at Red Boy and said, but a light that Red Boy didn't see flashed in the bottom of his eyes.
"Second Uncle, what should we do next?" Red Boy asked.
"I'm prepared to go find your other few uncles. You should go back to Dry Pine Stream first, or go to Cuiyun Mountain to find your mother." Demon King Jiao said.
"Oh!" Red Boy nodded.
The next second, Demon King Jiao sat in meditation on the spot for a while, and after feeling that the injury in his body had calmed down a bit, he left directly.
Looking at the place where Demon King Jiao disappeared, a strange look appeared in Red Boy's eyes: "Truly trash!"
He muttered to himself, and the next second he disappeared from the spot.
Women's Kingdom.
After Demon King Jiao left with Red Boy, Pan Huang focused his attention on the two of them. He wanted to see what Demon King Jiao and Red Boy would do.
"Husband, this Red Boy is no ordinary child. Beneath that seemingly cute exterior, he actually possesses such deep cunning." After hearing Red Boy's final words, Changxi frowned and said.
"He is, after all, a demon who has lived for several hundred years. His mother is Princess Iron Fan, and his nominal father is the mount of Tongtian Jiaozhu. It is only reasonable for him to have a bit of cunning; otherwise, he would have died out there long ago," Xihe remarked.
"That's true." Changxi thought for a moment and nodded.
Just as Pan Huang was preparing to turn off the water mirror, the scenery in the water mirror changed violently, and Red Boy's figure appeared in the water mirror again.
The background behind him was a place of green water and green mountains, and the scenery was quite good. After Red Boy looked around at the surrounding scenery, a smile appeared on his face: "He knows how to choose a place."
After saying this, he walked into the mountain. Just as he reached the mountainside, a bull demon jumped out of the grass and blocked Red Boy's path.
When this bull demon saw Red Boy, he was stunned for a moment, and then a greedy and bloodthirsty light appeared in his eyes.
"The place chosen is quite okay, but the small demons under him are not very good. They don't even know the most basic observation of words and colors." Seeing the bull demon before him, Red Boy shook his head, with the appearance of a young man who was old beyond his years.
The next second, the momentum of his Golden Immortal stage was released. In just an instant, the bull demon knelt on the ground, then transformed into his true form, and then exploded into blood mist with a bang. He didn't even let out a scream.
After this bull demon died, there was a commotion in the dark, and then it returned to quiet. Seeing this, a smile appeared on the corner of Red Boy's mouth, and then he walked toward the mountain step by step.
"This doesn't seem to be Cuiyun Mountain either." Seeing the scene in the water mirror, Changxi said with confusion.
"This is of course not Cuiyun Mountain. Cuiyun Mountain doesn't have bull demons." Xihe looked at her younger sister and said somewhat helplessly. Sometimes she was quite shrewd, but sometimes she was silly.
Pan Huang's mouth revealed a smile. He already had the answer in his heart. It seemed that this Red Boy really might be his child.
