239: Chapter 180: Houtu Takes Action_6 239: Chapter 180: Houtu Takes Action_6 Thinking this, Master Ge broke out in cold sweat. He clearly understood in his heart that he might very well have been calculated by the Great Emperor Ziwei. As expected, the Great Emperor Ziwei stared at Master Ge, a cruel smile appearing on his face. This made Master Ge’s heart skip a beat, as he suddenly had a bad premonition. The Great Emperor Ziwei said indifferently, “I originally thought that you were a decent servant, and with you present, it was possible to win over the hearts of all Daoist immortals in the world. I now finally understand why the Jade Emperor initially did not favor the Four Great Heavenly Masters, but instead let Taibai lead the civil officials of the Heavenly Court.” “Your Majesty, forgive me, it was You who made me say it; it was all Your doing.” Master Ge quickly knelt down. The Great Emperor Ziwei smiled faintly and said, “Indeed, it was I who made you say it, but I did not say that you would be absolved of your crimes.” Master Ge: “...” Was this even allowed? He was truly dumbfounded. The expression of the Great Emperor Ziwei turned cold, and his voice carried forth. “Master Ge has used magic to delude the ruler and slander the loyal and good. From now on, you are dismissed from your position as an immortal official, expelled from the Heavenly Court, and permanently banned from reemployment.” The voice of the Great Emperor Ziwei spread throughout the Heavenly Court. Everyone was stunned. Master Ge was one of the Four Great Heavenly Masters of the Daoist Sect, capable of winning over countless Daoist immortals. And yet, the Great Emperor Ziwei had expelled Master Ge from the Heavenly Court, which truly showed how furious he was with him. What had he done to provoke such thunderous fury from the usually benevolent Great Emperor Ziwei? Using magic to delude the ruler and slandering the loyal and good are charges that would not be overlooked anywhere. And, branded with such charges, Master Ge had no future; he would be unwelcome everywhere he went. Master Ge was both shocked and furious, not expecting the Great Emperor Ziwei to be so ruthless, casting him into an endless abyss so suddenly. He collapsed to the ground, wanting to argue back or even hurl harsh words. But upon seeing the icy face of the Great Emperor Ziwei, he resolutely kept silent, daring not to say anything. The Great Emperor Ziwei was evidently furious; regardless of how unwilling Master Ge was, he had to accept it. Otherwise, the Great Emperor Ziwei might strike him dead on the spot. How had it come to this? Master Ge was completely baffled, looking utterly at a loss. “Scram.” The Great Emperor Ziwei said coldly, not wanting to see Master Ge. Master Ge had no choice but to leave. Amidst the mocking gazes of the spectators, he left the Purple Forbidden Enclosure. The Jade Emperor was surprised at the decisiveness of the Great Emperor Ziwei, still somewhat shocked. He knew Master Ge quite well and naturally knew what Master Ge was capable of. If nothing unexpected had arisen, Master Ge must have slandered Sun Wukong; it was all too typical of him to do such a thing. As one of the Four Great Heavenly Masters under the Jade Emperor, the Jade Emperor knew Master Ge’s character all too well. “Three thousand years pass to the east of the river, three thousand years to the west; Ziwei, you will regret this.” As Master Ge walked away, he looked back towards the direction of the Purple Forbidden Enclosure and said coldly. A cold gaze fell on him; unbeknownst to him, Marshal Tianpeng had already arrived at his side. Master Ge shuddered, well aware that Marshal Tianpeng was now a powerful Heavenly Venerate, far surpassing him in strength. He and Venus, one in literature and one in arms, served as the two key ministers to the Ziwei Heavenly Venerate. The words he had just spoken had all been heard by Marshal Tianpeng; his legs went weak, almost making him kneel. But the pride of being a Heavenly Master still enabled him to withstand the pressure from Marshal Tianpeng. Master Ge said sternly, “Tianpeng, what do you mean by this? Did the Great Emperor send you to kill me?” Marshal Tianpeng smiled faintly and said, “The Great Emperor did not kill you at that time, so naturally he will not kill you now; I came to tell you something.” Master Ge then breathed a sigh of relief; he was really worried that Marshal Tianpeng had come to kill him. When he heard he would not be killed, Master Ge’s confidence grew a bit, and he coldly said, “Speak then.” Just then, Marshal Tianpeng made his move. The Nine-Toothed Rake in his hand struck Master Ge, and although not much mana was used, it was not something Master Ge could resist. Nine bloody holes immediately appeared on Master Ge’s body; he screamed in pain and staggered backwards, his face a mixture of shock and fury. “Tianpeng, didn’t you say you wouldn’t kill me?” Marshal Tianpeng said indifferently, “I did not kill you, but I merely taught you a lesson, to see if you dare stir up trouble again.” Master Ge coldly said, “I will remember this grudge.” Tianpeng smiled faintly, utterly disregarding Master Ge’s threat. He turned and walked away, looking very carefree. Not long after Tianpeng left, someone appeared in front of Master Ge. Master Ge’s pupils dilated; just as he was about to say something, he felt a jolt throughout his body, all vitality fading away. “Heh.” A cold laugh issued from the newcomer, and Master Ge fell. At this time, Sun Wukong had entered a strange space. This place was a dimension created by powerful divine skills, exceedingly robust. Sun Wukong tentatively attacked it but could not break through. He smiled faintly, certain that someone had deliberately plotted this. Sun Wukong even suspected that the Bodhisattva Guanyin calling back Lady Dragon of Wealth might also be a ruse. What would the Bodhisattva need Lady Dragon of Wealth to do? She now had the Ox Demon King, a formidable expert by her side; if necessary, she could have sent Red Boy instead, but insisting on Lady Dragon of Wealth returning clearly wasn’t normal. Someone familiar with the Bodhisattva Guanyin must have forged her message, leading Lady Dragon of Wealth away. Sun Wukong could only pray that Lady Dragon of Wealth was safe; otherwise, he would truly feel remorseful.
