110: Chapter 110 Ghostly Qi 110: Chapter 110 Ghostly Qi He Xiangu realized her mistakes. She sighed, “Was I too impulsive, or is the Great Saint truly composed?” Sun Wukong gave a faint smile. Just then, he abruptly looked up towards the outside. “Why has he come?” Sun Wukong willed it, and the prohibitions of Huaguo Mountain opened. A ray of light descended and transformed into a man. The man had long, flowing black hair, and his majestic physique was clad in black garments, with a sword in hand and a turtle-and-snake emblem beneath his feet. He was incredibly authoritative, his face devoid of any expression, his gaze remarkably calm. However, as his eyes swept over them, both He Xiangu and Fan Yao trembled in their bodies. “We pay our respects to True Martial Great Emperor.” Both He Xiangu and Fan Yao saluted at the same time. The True Martial Demon-Subduing Emperor, also known as the Demon-Subduing Heavenly Venerate. All demons of the world shuddered at the mention of his name. This was also the Celestial Immortal from Heavenly Court that demons least wanted to encounter. Wherever True Martial Great Emperor was stationed, without exception, demons stayed away. When he made his name, he was already a Heavenly Venerate, exceptionally skilled in battle; his divine skills in subduing demons and eradicating evil were astonishing. Now that he’d been practicing the dao for a long time, even if he was not the Great Heavenly Venerate, he was probably not far behind. Sun Wukong stood up, but did not show excessive disrespect. This True Martial Great Emperor, who was extremely upright and dignified, was well-liked by the world. Sun Wukong approached and exchanged greetings with the True Martial Great Emperor. A rare trace of a smile appeared on the stern face of True Martial Great Emperor. “Many years have passed, yet the Great Saint’s elegance remains the same.” Sun Wukong waved his hand and said, “Forget it, you’re not suited for these pleasantries. What brings you to me?” “The Jade Emperor...” Before he could finish, Sun Wukong already had the answer. “Alive and well, in fact. I’ve seen him twice, and even gave him a beating in the Immortal Peach Orchard. That old codger is plotting against the living beings of the Three Realms, hoping to stir up chaos, weaken the Great Dao of Living Beings, let Ancient Gods from beyond enter, and annihilate them in one fell swoop.” “He’s gone mad,” said the True Martial Great Emperor. His normally unchanging face now displayed a shocked expression. Because what the Jade Emperor was thinking was simply too insane. Could the Ancient Gods from beyond be so easily eradicated? Beware lest in attempting to deal with the Ancient Gods, he ends up ruining the Three Realms instead. “I understand now, thank you, Great Saint,” said the True Martial Great Emperor as he expressed his gratitude, then he transformed into a beam of light and left. Just like that, decisive and swift. “True Martial Great Emperor is so cool,” said Fan Yao, stars in her eyes. He Xiangu glanced at her and said, “Give it up, he’s not interested in you. I think you’d have better luck pursuing the Great Saint.” Fan Yao looked at Sun Wukong, stuck out her tongue and said, “Immortal Maiden, I’ve read too few scriptures, don’t deceive me. The Great Saint and I are not of the same species, he definitely likes the type with abundant body hair. For someone like me with Immortal Flesh and Jade Bones, the Great Saint definitely won’t fancy me.” Sun Wukong pretended not to hear, he rolled his eyes and returned to Water Curtain Cave. “Giggles.” Laughter from the two female immortals came from outside. Sun Wukong: “...” Is it that they needed to be taught a lesson? He caressed Jingu Bang and huffed coldly. ... After the incident with the Daoist Sect immortals stirring trouble, the friction between the Great Sage Sect and the Spiritual Sect continued to grow. Even Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva had to take action several times to repel the opposing great demons. If this situation continued to develop, Tathagata’s plans were bound to fail. Sun Wukong was quite puzzled; Tathagata seemed not to be in a hurry at all and remained completely silent. Could it be that he dared not make a move? No sooner had this thought arisen than it was dismissed by everyone. Based on the Tathagata’s character, there was nothing he wouldn’t dare do. “I feel as if I’ve overlooked something,” Sun Wukong frowned. If the Tathagata’s plan was just this simple, he wouldn’t be the Tathagata. Sun Wukong left Huaguo Mountain, he needed to take a walk, to clear his mind properly. Perhaps by relaxing, he could figure out exactly what he had overlooked. Lu Dongbin directly followed him, relishing a rare moment of leisure. Seeing Sun Wukong go out, he naturally wanted to accompany him. Nowadays, Lu Dongbin’s realm was becoming increasingly profound. It probably wouldn’t be long before he could become a Heavenly Venerate. But Lu Dongbin found that he couldn’t completely see through which step Sun Wukong had reached in his cultivation. It was like he was at the pinnacle of being a Celestial Immortal, but at the same time, he wasn’t. He gave off an unfathomable feeling. “Great Saint, are you facing some sort of difficulty?” Lu Dongbin inquired. Sun Wukong nodded slightly and sighed, “I always feel I’ve missed something. I haven’t fully understood Tathagata’s calculations. If he was only creating the Spiritual Sect, it wouldn’t really allow Buddhist Law to spread into the Eastern Continent. The great deities of the Daoist Sect could obliterate the Spiritual Sect with a wave of their hand if they wished.” “What if this was instructed by the Jade Emperor?” Lu Dongbin countered. Sun Wukong snorted, “Even when the Jade Emperor was in power, there were many Daoist immortals who did not heed his commands. Not to mention, within the Daoist Sect, The Three Pure Ones are revered more than the Jade Emperor. Should it really touch the most fundamental interests of the Daoist Sect, those great immortals would not back down.” As a Daoist immortal himself, Lu Dongbin naturally knew this point well. Thinking this way, no wonder Sun Wukong was puzzled. Lu Dongbin was also confused. The Tathagata would definitely not overlook this aspect. Despite racking their brains, neither could make sense of it. The two arrived at a city in the Eastern Continent, and seeing the bustling metropolis, they descended in the middle of the city. The place was extremely bustling, with immortals taking off into the sky from time to time, entering and exiting the city. Most of these, however, were Human Immortals, and even Earth Immortals were rare to see. As for gods and Celestial Immortals, there was not even one. Gods and Celestial Immortals, for the most part, lived within Blessed Lands and Cave Heavens, or on the Ten Continents and Three Islands, rarely engaging with the mortal world for fear of affecting their Dao Heart. “There is a presence of Ghostly Qi.” Lu Dongbin’s eyes fell on a building not far away. It was decorated with red hangings and was exceptionally lively. It was evening by this time, and the place was bustling with activity. Lotus Pavilion. When he saw the signboard, Lu Dongbin suddenly had an epiphany. No wonder the place was so lively—it turned out to be a brothel. And that Ghostly Qi was emanating from there. “Great Saint, why don’t we go in and watch a dance or two? Maybe it will help you relax, and you might realize what’s wrong.” Sun Wukong had never been to a brothel, but he knew what it was for. He originally planned to leave, not intending to enter at all. But as the presence of Ghostly Qi flashed again, fleeting though it was, Sun Wukong sensed something different within it. “Let’s go.” He led the way to the Lotus Pavilion. Their stature was impressive, marking them as no ordinary men. The Madam came out to welcome them personally, not with a surfeit of flattering words, but with immense respect. This place occasionally had cultivators visit, and the Madam, having seen many, could tell from their demeanor that Sun Wukong and Lu Dongbin were likely true immortals of the Quanzhen path. “Brother, not all brothels are the same. This place likely only sells performances, just song and dance, unlike those that sell their bodies. They won’t force girls to sell themselves. Most of the women here come from impoverished families. Being in a place like this is a good thing for those girls; at least they won’t starve to death,” Lu Dongbin explained. He was worried Sun Wukong might feel uncomfortable or disdainful of this place. Sun Wukong nodded slightly. The Madam’s eyes lit up, and she said cheerfully, “It seems the immortal is a connoisseur. Indeed, we sell art, not bodies. These girls are like my own daughters; I wouldn’t want to force them into something they’re unwilling to do.” Unless the money was enough, she thought to herself. Sun Wukong tossed a piece of gold her way, saying, “This is for you. Bring your prettiest girl over.”
