293: Chapter 189 Misjudged_3 293: Chapter 189 Misjudged_3 Sun Wukong said with a smile,
He knew what Yang Jian was about to say, and of course, he didn’t mind agreeing.
Yang Jian revealed a smile, Sun Wukong really understood him, knew what he was thinking.
Since Sun Wukong had agreed, there was naturally nothing Yang Jian needed to say.
Yang Jian asked, “When shall we set off?”
“Let’s set off now.
Ziwei has already spoken to me about this matter, which means Lady Houtu will be taking action soon.
Since that’s the case, we can’t delay.
We must immediately head to the Netherworld to arrange everything,”
“Alright.”
Yang Jian nodded.
He steeled his spirits.
Having agreed to assist Sun Wukong, he naturally had to do his best.
The trio set off immediately, and before they left, Sun Wukong instructed Lu Dongbin and the other Heavenly Venerates to be extremely vigilant and to be wary of troublemakers.
If anything went amiss, they should notify the Heavenly Court or the Dragon Palace of the East Sea at once, and the Great Heavenly Venerate would come to their aid.
Of course, Sun Wukong was just taking precautions.
His stronghold was Huaguo Mountain, but as for his opponents, only those out of their minds would dare to overturn his stronghold.
Setting aside whether they had the power to do so, even if they did manage to do it, there would be no benefits.
What they would face would be a Sun Wukong hell-bent on taking his revenge.
Such an act, by any measure, seemed like a loss-making endeavor.
Lu Dongbin, of course, understood.
He assured Sun Wukong that he could rest easy, and if there were any issues, he would call for help at the first opportunity and no mishaps would occur.
Only then did Sun Wukong leave at ease.
The three of them entered into the Netherworld.
They didn’t conceal their identities, but exposed themselves openly within the Netherworld.
The Ten Kings of Hell came to greet them, and even Ying Hook was stirred, emerging from the Yellow Springs Nether Sea.
As the Lord of the Netherworld, he indeed had the Nether Palace.
But Ying Hook didn’t like it, which was why it had always been unoccupied.
Seeing Ying Hook with his drowsy eyes, Sun Wukong couldn’t help but laugh.
“Bro, looking like that, when will you ever break through to a Great Heavenly Venerate?” Sun Wukong asked with a smile.
Ying Hook yawned lazily and asked, “Become a Great Heavenly Venerate?
Why should I become one?
Isn’t this comfortable?
With the Heavenly Court as a deterrent, no one dares to mess with the Netherworld, so I’ll just keep on sleeping.”
“Who says no one dares to mess with the Netherworld?
Otherwise, why would we come to the Netherworld?” Sun Wukong was caught between laughter and tears.
Ying Hook’s eyes brightened, and he said excitedly, “Another fight to join?
Against whom?”
At that moment, he looked nothing like he was half asleep but entirely like someone thrilled, ready for battle.
“Lady Houtu,” Sun Wukong said.
Ying Hook immediately lost interest, and with a twist of his mouth, he said, “A woman, no fun in fighting her.
Maybe if it were Gou Chen or Longevity Great Emperor, that’d be somewhat worthwhile.
If the Jade Emperor could come, that’d be even better.”
Sun Wukong was caught between laughter and tears and couldn’t resist retorting, “If the Jade Emperor came, we’d be finished.”
“Heh, bro, I was just joking.
Don’t worry, leave Lady Houtu to me.
If I don’t beat her back, then I’m not Ying Hook,” Ying Hook said proudly.
“Alright, with your word, I can rest easy.
Yang Jian, Nezha, let’s head back,” Sun Wukong said, smiling.
Ying Hook’s face immediately fell, and he quickly grabbed Sun Wukong, saying urgently, “Bro, I was kidding!
Do you really have the heart to watch me get beaten to death by Lady Houtu?”
Sun Wukong was dumbfounded and couldn’t help but ask, “Didn’t you just say you’d take care of Lady Houtu yourself?”
Giving Sun Wukong a sidelong glance, Ying Hook said discontentedly, “Isn’t boasting allowed?”
Sun Wukong: “...”
“Forget it, Wukong, don’t tease our brother Ying Hook anymore.
We came here this time to fend off Lady Houtu.
Brother Ying Hook doesn’t have to worry—with us here, Lady Houtu won’t be a threat to you,” Yang Jian said.
Upon hearing this, Ying Hook heaved a sigh of relief.
He said cheerfully, “Ha, I was not worried.
I was just playing with you guys.
Lady Houtu?
If she dares to come, she won’t return.
Not just her, even if Gou Chen joined her, I’d send them both back where they came from.”
Yang Jian: “...”
He shouldn’t have said those words just now.
The simpleton was showing off again.
“Come on, let’s go drink at my Yellow Springs Nether Sea,” Ying Hook called out to them.
The Ten Kings of Hell stood at a distance, also wanting to invite Yang Jian and the others.
But now, with Ying Hook taking the initiative, they could only smile wryly, turn, and leave.
They naturally wouldn’t compete with their superior for guests.
At the Yellow Springs Nether Sea, Ying Hook entertained the three with food and drink.
“Nezha has also broken through to the Heavenly Venerate level.
Tsk tsk, if you all become Great Heavenly Venerates one day, who in the world could stand in your way?
Even the Jade Emperor might not be able to suppress your united front,” Ying Hook remarked.
Although he didn’t know the strength of the Jade Emperor, he was well-aware of the Four Heavenly Kings.
Once Sun Wukong and the others become Great Heavenly Venerates, their combat prowess would at least not be weaker than the Four Heavenly Kings.
With their Divine Skills and combat awareness, among the Great Heavenly Venerates, they would likely be invincible.
Those commonly referred to as War Gods seldom attain the rank of Great Heavenly Venerate.
Because they prioritize combat power, their insights into cultivation tend to lag behind those of other Heavenly Venerates.
After becoming a Heavenly Venerate, this turns into the War Gods’ greatest hindrance in their cultivation.
Even if a War God who has become a Heavenly Venerate realizes this, it’s difficult to change.
Insights into cultivation are not always forthcoming; they require time to settle.
“Great Heavenly Venerate, it is only a matter of time,” Sun Wukong seemed unfazed by the prospect.
