Whoever dares to kill my brother, I’ll slaughter his brothers in return.”
“The third one.”
Wukong said wordlessly.
The Ox Demon King: “...”
He came to his senses, expressing a shocked countenance.
“When did the third one become so powerful?”
Wukong’s expression was grave as he spoke soberly, “If my guess is correct, after the Roc Demon King was killed, the Primordial Demonic Qi found a host, and that host is the third one.”
“Root of Immortality.”
The Ox Demon King was astonished; he actually knew the origin of the Primordial Demonic Qi.
Wukong looked at him with some surprise— he had never mentioned it to the Ox Demon King before.
The Ox Demon King’s expression was grave as he said, “No wonder.
With the Primordial Demonic Qi possessing him, even if the third one isn’t as powerful as the Great Heavenly Venerate, the difference wouldn’t be much.
Furthermore, considering the Primordial Demonic Qi requires souls to nourish itself, the stronger the individual, the better the effect of the Primordial Demonic Qi.
He doesn’t want to expose himself, so it makes sense for him to strike Qushen instead.”
Wukong was surprised by the Ox Demon King’s profound knowledge, even knowing that the Primordial Demonic Qi needed souls to nourish it.
“Old Ox, what exactly is your background?
I feel you have a significant origin, knowing such obscure and sophisticated information.
Could you be the reincarnation of some great deity?”
The Ox Demon King glanced at Wukong and said with ill humor, “Have you ever seen a great deity as weak as me?”
“No.”
Wukong said very honestly.
“Scram.”
The Ox Demon King laughed and cursed.
Wukong let out a sly smile, then his expression turned serious.
“Old Ox, I have a feeling that the third guy will continue causing trouble.
I’m not worried about the fifth; that guy is a disciple of Tathagata and no good either.
If he dies, he dies.
My concern is that he’s going to find the fourth brother.”
The Ox Demon King’s face changed slightly, and he said gravely, “It’s not impossible.
Although the fourth is stronger than Qushen, if he encounters the third, I’m afraid he won’t be able to hold out for long.
We must find him quickly.”
“Do you know where the fourth is?”
Wukong asked.
He certainly didn’t know; with the world changing so drastically, he was completely clueless about his brothers’ whereabouts.
Actually, these brothers weren’t even particularly good to him.
When Wukong rebelled against heaven, who had come to help him?
And when he was suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain, who had gone to see him?
At that thought, he couldn’t help but feel a tinge of desolation in his heart.
But still, he was one to uphold loyalty.
Moreover, the Heavenly Court was powerful back then, and they truly dared not get involved with him, lest they risk bringing disaster upon themselves.
The Ox Demon King could feel that Wukong’s mood had shifted somewhat.
Being an astoundingly clever ox, how could he not understand Wukong’s thoughts?
With a hint of remorse, the Ox Demon King patted Wukong on the shoulder and said, “We brothers have let you down.”
“I understand.
You all had families and businesses; rashly opposing heaven with me would have been a death sentence.
So, you are still my brothers, and I bear no grudges against you.
It’s all in the past now; no need to dwell on it.
Apart from the third and the fifth, we’re still brothers.”
Wukong spoke magnanimously.
The Ox Demon King patted Wukong’s shoulder firmly, declaring, “Good brother.”
They exchanged a smile, then the Ox Demon King led the way; they went to look for the Mountain-moving Sage, Lion Camel King.
Of course, the Lion Camel King was not the same as the Green Lion of the Lion Camel Ridge; that Green Lion didn’t have the same strength as the Lion Camel King.
The Lion Camel King wasn’t on any of the Continents, which was somewhat unexpected to Wukong.
When they found the Lion Camel King, he was in one of the Great Thousand Worlds.
The heavens and earth here were not as vast as the Continents, belonging to the sub-space of the Three Realms.
Relatively speaking, there weren’t many strong beings here.
In this Great Thousand World, the Lion Camel King could be called the top expert.
He was very high-profile, needing to be carried when he went out, with an astonishingly grand presence.
After thousands of years here, he had subdued all the strong beings in this Great Thousand World.
Those who did not submit had died at his hands, and now in this Great Thousand World, the Lion Camel King was the sole authority.
A black light fell into this Great Thousand World, which was none other than the Roc Demon King.
He sensed the Lion Camel King’s aura and instantly found him, arriving not far from where the Lion Camel King was.
“The third one, no, you’ve been possessed by a demon and harbor the intent to kill me,” the Lion Camel King said as he transformed into his human form, appearing as a robust man in his thirties, clad in a golden robe that exuded extreme luxury.
Having ruled over this Great Thousand World for many years, the Lion Camel King had developed an air of superiority.
However, he was somewhat alarmed at the moment because the Roc Demon King’s intent to kill gave him a sense of impending death.
Although trembling slightly inside, he tried to maintain an outward appearance of composure.
“What do you mean by this, third brother?
Even if you’ve been possessed by a demon, you should still have some fraternal feelings.
Have you forgotten the camaraderie we’ve shared over the years?”
The Lion Camel King said gravely, stalling for time, seeking an opportunity to escape.
The Roc Demon King stared at him, his expression a mixture of a smile and not a smile, as though seeing through his ruse.
Moreover, he was not the least bit worried that the Lion Camel King might escape, exuding absolute confidence, which infuriated the Lion Camel King.
“Third brother, won’t you say something?
Do you really want to turn against your brother?”
The Lion Camel King said coldly, standing up and reaching to one side.
A long spear appeared in his hand, aimed at the Roc Demon King, he declared, “I won’t sit here and wait for death.
If you want to take my life, you’ll have to pay dearly in blood.”
“Is that so?”
The Roc Demon King smiled faintly.
Endless Demonic Qi surged, enveloping everything in its path.
All those enveloped by the Demonic Qi turned into mummified corpses.
