196: Chapter 173: Joining Forces with the Human Race_5 196: Chapter 173: Joining Forces with the Human Race_5 This counts as Sun Wukong’s recompense.
The Yellow Emperor and Chi Di were overjoyed.
With Sun Wukong’s words, they could completely put their minds at ease.
Moreover, the Human Race would have an additional Guardian God in the future.
“We will now, in the names of the two of us, have the leaders of each tribe of the Human Race honor Great Emperor Ziwei,” said the Yellow Emperor with a smile.
Shennong was also somewhat excited.
If this event succeeded, the Human Race could seal a Great Heavenly Venerate.
Who would dare to look down on the Human Race thereafter?
Of course, they also needed to make a breakthrough as soon as possible.
Merely being at the realm of Heavenly Venerate was not enough to protect the Human Race.
Although Sun Wukong had promised, one Sun Wukong could not possibly guard the entire Human Race.
If the Human Race had a Great Heavenly Venerate in charge, it would certainly make others more reverent.
“Thank you both for your majesty.
I should take my leave now to tell Ziwei about this matter,” said Sun Wukong with a smile.
The Yellow Emperor and Shennong were taken aback.
They had thought that it was Great Emperor Ziwei who had instructed Sun Wukong to come; they hadn’t expected Sun Wukong to act on his own initiative.
This big matter, discussed and concluded only to be told to Great Emperor Ziwei afterwards, would he agree?
Would he not harbor other thoughts?
Sun Wukong gave the two men a reassuring look before departing.
“Daughter, are Great Saint and Great Emperor Ziwei really on such good terms?” asked the Yellow Emperor, unable to help himself.
Nu Ba did not speak.
She used her mana to recreate the scene when Great Emperor Ziwei had come to find Sun Wukong the last time.
In the scene, Great Emperor Ziwei, pinching his fingers delicately, was saying, “I missed you so, can’t I come to see you?”
“You’re so heartless, speaking to me so rudely.”
“How about I offer myself to you.”
...
The voice of Great Emperor Ziwei in the scene kept coming through, leaving everyone who saw it dumbstruck.
Leizu couldn’t resist and pulled Nu Ba aside, saying, “Daughter, maybe we should consider someone else to fall for, I truly hadn’t anticipated that the Great Saint would fancy this sort of jest.”
Momo also said, “Yes, daughter, perhaps you should reconsider.
I find the Great Saint’s preferences to be somewhat difficult to accept.”
The Yellow Emperor and Shennong exchanged a glance—it was too distasteful.
Nu Ba did not know whether to laugh or to cry, realizing they had misunderstood.
“It’s not what you imagine.
Great Emperor Ziwei was just joking with the Great Saint.
I showed this to let you know that the Great Saint and Great Emperor Ziwei are on very good terms, not to suggest that you persuade me to give up on the Great Saint,” she explained.
Everyone chuckled awkwardly, feeling a sense of relief in their hearts.
If Great Emperor Ziwei and the Great Saint really had that kind of relationship, it was feared that the Three Realms would have their views on Immortals and Buddhas completely overturned.
Fortunately, they were just joking.
It was also evident from this that Sun Wukong and Great Emperor Ziwei really had a good relationship.
Otherwise, how could Ziwei, the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings, indulge in such jokes with him?
It was truly too lowbrow.
Inside the Purple Forbidden Enclosure, Sun Wukong barged straight in.
“Great Saint, you’re presumptuous!
Don’t you have any manners?” Ge Xuan reprimanded.
He knew that Sun Wukong had a good relationship with Great Emperor Ziwei, but he still needed to maintain his own integrity.
Venus looked at him as if he were an idiot.
This fellow was too impatient.
Didn’t he see that even Great Emperor Ziwei wasn’t bothered by it, what was he blabbering about?
Before Sun Wukong could react, Marshal Tianpeng could no longer bear it.
He snorted coldly, and a powerful aura enveloped Ge Xuan.
Marshal Tianpeng had already stepped into the realm of Heavenly Venerate.
The powerful presence forced the Heavenly Master to retreat continuously as he glared at Marshal Tianpeng.
“What business is it of yours what my brother does?
You dare to scold him?” Marshal Tianpeng roared, the Nine-Toothed Rake appearing in his hands.
If the Heavenly Master dared to say another word, Zhu Bajie was determined to make nine bloody holes in him.
The Heavenly Master sensed Marshal Tianpeng’s wrath and didn’t dare to speak further.
At this point, Marshal Tianpeng was a favorite in Heavenly Court, not only being the disciple of Elder Lord but also the Great Marshal under Great Emperor Ziwei, commanding all his troops.
Now that he had ascended to the domain of Heavenly Venerate, he was no longer someone the Heavenly Master could afford to offend.
As long as Marshal Tianpeng wished it, Ge Xuan would have no place in Great Emperor Ziwei’s favor anymore.
“All right, Tianpeng, don’t waste words with this dirty thing.
I can’t be bothered with him,” said Sun Wukong with a laugh.
Tianpeng then retracted his imposing aura and took back the Nine-Toothed Rake.
He turned and looked at Sun Wukong with a silly smile.
“Brother, I am now a Heavenly Venerate.
You must call on me for any future battles,” he said.
“Don’t worry, there will certainly be fights for you,” replied Sun Wukong with a smile.
He said to Great Emperor Ziwei, “Apart from Taibai and Tianpeng, let everyone else leave.
I have something very important to discuss with Your Majesty.”
Great Emperor Ziwei nodded slightly.
He said with a grave voice, “That will be all for today.
All you lords may withdraw.”
Ge Xuan was reluctant to leave.
He knew very well that staying meant becoming one of Great Emperor Ziwei’s confidants.
But since he had just offended Sun Wukong, Sun Wukong wouldn’t possibly let him stay.
Feeling resentful, Ge Xuan, however, dared not show it and had no choice but to follow the other ministers and leave.
“His Majesty tolerates Sun Wukong’s whims too much.
It’s improper and will eventually undermine His Majesty’s authority,” Ge Xuan said as soon as he stepped out of Ziwei Hall.
To his dismay, nobody even glanced at him, nor did anyone respond; they simply turned and walked away.
Ge Xuan felt isolated.
Even the immortals of the Daoist Sect couldn’t bother with him.
In their eyes, Ge Xuan was making a fuss over nothing.
The Great Emperor himself didn’t mind, so what was he going on about, as if he considered himself so important.
