254: Chapter 183: Take a Strike from Old Sun_3 254: Chapter 183: Take a Strike from Old Sun_3 Sun Wukong drew in a sharp breath. Those who could be called great gods were at least of the Heavenly Venerate rank. At the Heavenly Venerate level, even Great Heavenly Venerates, hundreds perished in an instant during that battle; one could only imagine the horror of it. Just how many powerful beings were there in the Three Realms back then? “Did you take part in that battle?” Sun Wukong asked. Tathagata shook his head, a wry smile on his face, “Far from it. At that time, I hadn’t yet become a Heavenly Venerate, and the Buddhist Sect was nothing more than an extremely weak tradition.” Sun Wukong could understand. It was only in recent times that the Buddhist Sect began to flourish. Back then, with great gods everywhere, it was unlikely that the Buddhist Sect had much to do with anything. “So, do you think it was Shao Siming?” A sharp light flashed in Sun Wukong’s eyes. Tathagata nodded slightly, “Only Shao Siming could be so ruthless with her methods. I can’t think of anyone else. Baize is not someone who would act so recklessly.” As he spoke, Tathagata paused, then continued, “If it were Shao Siming, you had better not take her lightly when you face her. This woman is unfathomable; though she appears reckless and overbearing, she is in fact very calculating. Since she dared to expose herself, she is not afraid of the trouble you might bring her, and it might even be a deliberate ploy to lure you to her.” “What good would finding her do for me?” Sun Wukong scoffed coldly. Tathagata shook his head, sighing. “That, I do not know. If I could guess Shao Siming’s thoughts, then she wouldn’t be worthy of being called Shao Siming. Now, I am regretful. Had I known that the situation in the Three Realms would be this chaotic, I should have stayed to oversee the Buddhist Realm instead of faking my death. Although I made some arrangements, it turned out to be more loss than gain.” Seeing his regretful look, if Sun Wukong did not know his actions and his goals, he might have been fooled by Tathagata. But now, Tathagata could no longer deceive him. Sun Wukong gave a faint smile and said nothing. It was impossible for Tathagata to make Sun Wukong lower his guard against him. Tathagata sensed this and gave an awkward smile, not saying anything more. Sun Wukong had already determined that this matter was not Tathagata’s doing. “Could it really have been the doing of Gou Chen or Houtu?” Sun Wukong suddenly asked. Tathagata immediately shook his head, “Wukong, don’t underestimate these Immortal Gods. They are not so sordid as to stoop to this level.” Sun Wukong looked perplexed; he didn’t feel that he had thought too poorly of these Immortal Gods. This was simply their nature. Indeed, they were capable of doing anything. Like the Tathagata before him, or even the Jade Emperor. These two really would stop at nothing. Tathagata chuckled dryly, and said, “I know, Wukong, that you have a major misunderstanding about us. I understand that even if I tried to explain, you might not want to listen. Anyway, let me just say, we’re not as despicable as you imagine. To strike at mortals... that would be too shameless.” That was his heartfelt remark. Although Sun Wukong gave no credence, he still said, “I shall take your word for it this time, farewell.” He prepared to leave the place. Indeed, in Sun Wukong’s heart, the possibility of Tathagata and others intervening had been ruled out. Just as Tathagata had said, they had not degenerated to that extent. That left only two possibilities, one was Baize, the other was the so-called Shao Siming. “For a being that even Tathagata gives such high praise, that Ancient God must truly be as ferocious as he says. Tathagata, that old man, who doesn’t even submit to the Jade Emperor, wanting his position, is scared to this extent by Shao Siming. It seems she is even more ruthless than I imagined.” Sun Wukong remained warily vigilant in his heart. He left Mount Ling, lost in thought. At that moment, several streams of mana descended, bombarding him. Sun Wukong immediately reacted; he counterattacked fiercely, repelling the attackers. The newcomers were none other than the Sky War God and his companions. A huge question mark appeared above Sun Wukong’s head. Only four were left of the Five Extremes War Gods, and now they were seeking trouble with him? What was going on? Did they actually think they could kill him? Where did they get such confidence, who gave them the courage? As question marks filled Sun Wukong’s mind, the adversaries attacked, and he naturally did not hold back. Jingu Bang swept across, immediately blasting the Sky War God apart. However, the other four war gods showed no fear and attacked him with frenzy. Sun Wukong’s mind raced, studying the Earth War God and the others. He noticed that although they moved normally, their eyes were somewhat empty, obviously under someone’s control. That is, they were being driven to trouble him. With this realization, a glint of cold light flashed across Sun Wukong’s eyes. Someone was trying to exacerbate the tension between him and Great Emperor Gou Chen, but who could it be? Really the so-called Shao Siming? If it was indeed her, wasn’t this woman being far too audacious? The Earth War God, South Pole War God, and North Pole War God all charged at him. This time, Sun Wukong did not kill them but subdued them with his mana. Just then, a figure appeared; it was none other than the Great Emperor Gou Chen. His countenance darkened as he glared at Sun Wukong, roaring, “Sun Wukong, you have gone too far.” “What?” Sun Wukong was taken aback, casually tossing the three deities to Great Emperor Gou Chen. Great Emperor Gou Chen caught the three and glared at Sun Wukong with icy eyes full of murderous intent. “Rascal Monkey, you have indeed gone too far, smashing my temples, killing my subordinates. Do you really think that just because you have Ziwei to protect you, there’s no one in this world who can touch you?”
