Chapter 428: Waiting for the Opportunity

Oh? Where are you from, barbarian? Do we know each other?

Ah, um, Hou Ge..............

Not listening, not listening.

Hou Ge!

Not listening, not listening, Ra, take him out!

Hey hey, don't move me! Hou Ge, Old Pig will first apologize to you, but let me speak first!

Oh? What else do you have to say?

Hou Ge, you don't know, when I first announced your name, that monster said something about Grandpa Sun, and if he comes again, he'll definitely skin him and pull out his tendons..............

Hm?!

After Zhu Bajie's burst of provocation technique.

Sun Wukong hummed, knowing Bajie was mostly exaggerating, but went along and scolded:

What a reckless monster! How dare you despise old Sun like this! Dai Zi, lead the way! Watch old Sun kill that brute and rescue Master and junior brother!

Alright, alright! Hou Ge, this way!

Stop the idle talk.

Having said that, without further delay, he and Bajie rode the cloud, left Flower-Fruit Mountain, and headed toward Wan Zi Shan.

Meanwhile, inside the capital of Bao Xiang Guo.

In a small elegant chamber of a building that could see the Royal Palace, by the window, sat two people.

One, dressed in a blue shirt, with a clear and gentle face, was Huang Wan; the other, in a white robe, face like a crowned jade, eyes like bright stars, was Bai Lang in a white‑faced youthful form.

Bai Lang's gaze drifted faintly toward the deep interior of the distant Royal Palace, his nostrils twitching slightly, brows knit, he lowered his voice to Huang Wan:

Sister, did you feel it? There… such heavy demon qi!

His gaze seemed able to pierce the palace walls, landing on the scene of the inner palace gardens.

There, a Monster King clad in a yellow robe, with short horns on his head, a ferocious face, was clutching a already mutilated humanoid body, tearing it with his mouth.

His fangs sharp, he tore off an arm in one bite, chewed haphazardly, then lifted the fine wine in the nearby Golden Cup, gulped it down with a glug, swallowing bone and flesh without spitting a drop!

Blood foam ran down his mouth corner, staining the front of his yellow robe red, making him look like a Hell demon!

Huang Wan followed his sensing and "looked", though not as sharp as Bai Lang's perception, but as a ghost‑immortal body, she also felt a wave of cold, tyrannical aura.

Her usually dignified face now openly showed extreme disgust, her voice icy: "Such fur‑eating, blood‑drinking, life‑killing monster, truly a celestial star lord descended?"

Hmph… if those who sincerely worship the 'Kui Star', seeking literary luck and safety, saw what they were worshipping, who knows what they'd feel!

She did not continue, but the sarcasm and disappointment toward the Heavenly Court's neglect could not be hidden.

After a moment of silence, she turned, looking at Bai Lang very seriously: "Little Bai, the young master granted you destiny, gave you opportunity, because he values your temperament."

Today you see the evil of this Kui Mu Wolf, be constantly vigilant.

If in the future you become a star deity, gain power and authority, and also become this degenerate, forgetting your original heart, harming a region…

I advise you, it's better to end yourself early, walk away cleanly, so you won't dirty the young master's hands later, and have to…

Her tone was harsh, but her eyes showed concern and warning.

Bai Lang, hearing this, quickly adopted a serious tone, waved his hand: "Sister, rest assured! You know my background."

Since I awakened my spiritual intellect and followed you, I swore not to harm the innocent, not to consume blood.

These years, I have only cultivated the essence of sun and moon, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, eating mountain spirit fruits, immortal herbs, and the treasure jade dew, and have long been accustomed.

Now, even smelling this bloody meat makes me uneasy; if I were to be like him… I fear I wouldn't even swallow it before spitting it out!

Huang Wan, seeing his sincere attitude, relaxed slightly, nodded: "Hmm, it's good that you remember."

The two said no more, simply sitting quietly by the window, appearing to sip tea and view scenery, but actually fully concentrating on sensing movements toward the Royal Palace, awaiting the 'opportunity' the young master mentioned.

Time passed slowly until the afternoon.

Suddenly, Huang Wan and Bai Lang almost simultaneously sensed two rather forceful auras rushing from the southwest, sweeping over the sky of Bao Xiang Guo's capital, heading straight for the Royal Palace!

Bai Lang's eyes narrowed: "It's Zhu Bajie and Sha Heshang! They seem to be carrying two little demons in their hands?"

Huang Wan gave a slight nod: "It seems they are going to the Royal Palace, to expose the monster's true form before the king."

Sure enough, after only a moment, from the direction of the Royal Palace came a faint clamor of startled shouts.

Immediately, a roar of fury rang through half the city! A more Frenzy, ferocious demon qi surged skyward!

A gale rose, sand and stones flew, the sky darkened a few degrees.

In Bai Lang and Huang Wan's clear perception, that massive demon qi source belonging to the Kui Mu Wolf had already left the Royal Palace, wrapping a raging fire, and sped toward Wan Zi Shan in the southwest!

"It's gone!" Bai Lang whispered, a glint flashing in his eyes.

Huang Wan inhaled deeply, looked at Bai Lang, and said solemnly: "Little Bai, the opportunity has arrived. Remember the young master's instructions. Go, be careful."

"Alright! Sister, rest assured, I'll bring good news!" Bai Lang stood, no longer any Scholar air on his face, replaced by a hunter's sharpness.

His figure flickered, and he vanished inside the elegant chamber.

When he reappeared, he was over the wilderness outside Bao Xiang Guo.

Following that unabashed, rolling like war smoke, violent demon qi, his form moved like lightning, silently pursuing.

Soon, he arrived at the Wan Zi Shan region.

The terrain here is treacherous, dense forest, demon qi pervasive, exactly where the Kui Mu Wolf's lair, Bo Yue Dong, lies.

Bai Lang did not approach Bo Yue Dong, but landed in an outer forest spot that could sense the cave's movements yet remained relatively concealed.

He restrained his entire aura, even shrinking his body a bit, crouching behind a dense thicket, his golden pupils fixed on Bo Yue Dong.

His whole body, like the most patient hunter, merged with the surroundings, waiting silently.

Waiting… for the 'opportunity' to arrive!

He, Bai Lang, is about to become immortal!
