In the eyes of many, he has always been an entity of great power, more real and tangible than the seemingly unattainable Buddhist Sect. He is seen as a true strong presence by their side.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These words finally managed to suppress the fear in everyone’s hearts for the time being, and they were no longer as panicked and uneasy as before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the Old Dragon King of Ten Thousand Saints also began to calm down and think of a way out. That’s when he realized that aside from forming an alliance with King Niumo, he seemed to have no other good options.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless he was willing to hand over his family’s safety and his own life to the Buddhist Sect, it seemed that every path led to a dead end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Father, why don’t we go to the Heavenly Court? After all, you are a Water Monarch who has been officially recognized. The Heavenly Court surely won’t sit idly by,\" the Dragon Son said anxiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What use is that? A Dragon King like me can be found everywhere; the Heavenly Court won’t care about my life or death. We might be sold out without even realizing it,\" the Old Dragon King glanced at his son with a flash of displeasure in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what are we to do? The Buddhist Sect is so powerful, we are but ants before them,\" the Dragon Son cried out anxiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned his head and looked at his sister, saying, \"It’s all your fault, you troublemaker, always wanting the Buddhist Relic. Now look what’s happened, our entire family’s lives are at stake.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s really funny coming from you, Brother. You were the happiest when you set out to get the Buddhist Treasure. And now you’re blaming everything on me,\" the Dragon Maiden said scornfully, her words showing no courtesy to her brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You!\" The Dragon Son flew into a rage, but his momentum quickly faltered when he caught the cold gaze of the Nine-headed Insect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this world, it is strength that ultimately speaks. The Nine-headed Insect was formidable, and the Dragon Son was far from his match. If he truly angered him, he might well be risking his life, so the usually arrogant Dragon Son immediately backed down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Son-in-law, what do you think?\" the Old Dragon King of Ten Thousand Saints asked, looking at the Nine-headed Insect. He was well aware that only the Nine-headed Insect could truly decide their fate; his own son was all talk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My lord father-in-law, as for the current situation, either we submit to the Buddhist Sect and become fish on the chopping block, or we fight to the death and carve a path of blood,\" the Nine-headed Insect said sternly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The murderous tone of his words seemed to lower the temperature of the entire Crystal Palace by several degrees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone suddenly awoke to the realization that the person before them was not of a benevolent nature; without the family ties, they probably would have been dead already.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Son-in-law speaks truly. Such a great foundation is the hard work of generations of my family; we cannot simply hand it over. From today on, the safety of Bibo Pond is entirely in the hands of my worthy son-in-law,\" the Old Dragon King was decisive, entrusting all his authority to the Nine-headed Insect, just hoping to preserve his family’s foundation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My lord father-in-law, rest assured. We have taken root here for many years, and now that the Great Strength Bull Demon King supports us as an ally, though the Buddhist Sect is powerful, they are far in Western Heaven, and it won’t be easy for them to take our foundation,\" the Nine-headed Insect reassured the Old Dragon King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps the effect of his words was realized; the family of the Old Dragon King visibly lost their previous panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you plan to do next, son-in-law?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To contend with the Buddhist Sect, having a strong military force is inevitable. Therefore, my first step is to properly train the Naval Forces so that we may have an advantage in the battle against the Buddhist Sect. Secondly, since the Buddhist Sect wants to take action against us, they will naturally investigate the matter of Jisai Kingdom. I shall send a few clever Little Demons to hide in the Stupa to act as our eyes and ears,\" said the Nine-headed Insect confidently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was, after all, someone who had fought his way up from a harsh world, neither his methods nor his wits were lacking, as evidenced by the nods of agreement from everyone present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go, call Benbo’erba and Babo’erben in,\" the Old Dragon King called to Prime Minister Turtle, instructing him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after, two coarse and ugly fish spirits walked into the Crystal Palace from outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At your service, Benbo’erba!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Babo’erben!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We greet Your Majesty!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rise, you two have always been idle, but today I have a very important task for you,\" the Old Dragon King said with authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two little monsters glanced at each other and saw the surprise in each other’s eyes. They quickly knelt on the ground and shouted, \"Thank you, Your Majesty!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want you two to guard the stupa in Jisai Kingdom. If anyone suspicious comes, report immediately. Can you do that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Majesty can rest assured, we will certainly not fail,\" the two pledged, patting their chests to assure the Old Dragon King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Old Dragon King looked at them, then waved his hand to dismiss them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Husband, can these two fellows be trusted?\" the Dragon Granny said gravely, watching the departing little monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry, among the monsters, these two are also quite clever. Although they are a bit timid, they make up for it by being cautious, they won’t slip up,\" the Old Dragon King was full of confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, the King Niumo, who had left Bibo Pond, was filled with pride. With the support of Bibo Pond, he had even more confidence in resisting the Buddhist Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon arriving at Mount Moyun, the Jade-faced Princess was anxiously waiting. When she saw King Niumo return, her face lit up with a radiant smile, blooming like a flower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The King is back. Was the journey smooth?\" she asked, tenderly helping King Niumo with his armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>King Niumo laughed heartily, \"Don’t worry, within three days, Bibo Pond will surely invite me to a banquet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, the Jade-faced Princess covered her mouth and let out a charming giggle, \"Does the King really have such confidence?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph, that Old Dragon King of Ten Thousand Saints has been cautious all his life, but who would have thought that in his old age, he would become muddled? He actually listened to his daughter and son-in-law and stole the Buddhist Relic from Jisai Kingdom. Now with the Buddhist Sect approaching, I just gave him a fright, and the old fellow’s expression changed drastically. I guess he’s scared out of his wits,\" King Niumo said with a laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You really are something, King. Aren’t you afraid you’ll scare the Old Dragon King into fleeing with his entire family overnight?\" the Jade-faced Princess said coquettishly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could he ever give up his family legacy? Though the Dragon Clan is wealthy, that only applies to the Dragon Kings of rivers and lakes. Someone like him, if he lost his base, would find life difficult. He doesn’t have the heart to leave. Maybe if he were a few hundred years younger, he might make such a decision, but now his heart has grown old.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, his son-in-law, despite his looks, is truly a remarkable figure. I sensed the aura of mountains of corpses and seas of blood on him,\" King Niumo mused, recalling his first encounter with the Nine-headed Insect and let out such a sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really? No matter how formidable, can he be more powerful than the King? I, on the other hand, was thinking that the Princess of Ten Thousand Saints is also a national beauty, yet she ended up marrying such a son-in-law,\" said the Jade-faced Princess with a laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The strong are revered; what does it matter if one is ugly? With the strength of the Nine-headed Insect, it is he who has profited for the Dragon King of Ten Thousand Saints.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1399,"2026-06-05T19:13:35.781Z",1,"novelbin.me","aaa5bbd0685924e9dc6be807fc9c00759262e314a5f8f7c6938cd7bd8fd79a10","this-journey-to-the-west-is-so-terrifying-chapter-123","this-journey-to-the-west-is-so-terrifying-chapter-121",578,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-journey-to-the-west-is-so-terrifying-cover.jpg"]
