294: Chapter 189 Miscalculated_4 294: Chapter 189 Miscalculated_4 Isn’t he just aiming to become the Great Heavenly Venerate?
He’ll achieve that sooner or later.
Once he becomes the Great Heavenly Venerate, the first one Sun Wukong wants to settle scores with will definitely be Tathagata, followed by Shao Siming.
As for his master, the Jade Emperor, he’s definitely going to be the last.
The main reason is that he’s really too tough to chew on.
“Brother really is confident, a trait you got from your elder brother,”
Ying Hook laughed loudly.
He raised his cup, and the four of them drank heartily.
They weren’t in a rush and decided to wait right there for the arrival of Lady Houtu.
The Ten Kings of Hell had issued orders, commanding the newly gathered soldiers and leaders to start being vigilant.
In that way, if any sudden event occurred, they could react immediately.
Among them, King Yama, Bao Zheng, even went to the Yellow Springs Nether Sea to wait for Ying Hook’s commands at any moment.
“Let’s all drink.”
Ying Hook and Bao Zheng hooked arms, looking carelessly equal.
It was at this moment that he truly appreciated the perks of being the Lord of the Netherworld.
At least he could indulge himself here without worrying about someone from the Netherworld causing him trouble.
Last time, he helped the Buddhist Sect take down the Netherworld, only for them to turn around and try to take him down as well.
Originally, Ying Hook was very Buddhist and just wanted to blend in at the Yellow Springs Nether Sea.
However, those jerks from Mount Ling forced him to take matters into his own hands and clear out those bastards from Mount Ling.
If he hadn’t controlled his impulse, it might not have been necessary to wait for the Ziwei Heavenly Court to take action; Ying Hook would have already clashed with the Buddhist Sect violently.
Now, being the Lord of the Netherworld, no one came to bother him.
As for power, Ying Hook was even less interested.
Could there be a more comfortable life than this?
He now looked forward very much to Great Emperor Ziwei becoming stronger so that his days would be even more peaceful.
Bao Zheng forced a smile.
Were these the four influential figures that shook the Three Realms?
In his opinion, they were just like four little rascals.
After drinking for half a day, they lost all sense of image, hooked arms, wept and laughed; they were more like four lunatics.
Could these four really be reliable?
Were they capable of stopping Lady Houtu?
A sense of unease suddenly arose in Bao Zheng’s heart.
If not, he had to bring it up to Great Emperor Ziwei, maybe send a few more people over.
“King Yama, come on, have a drink.”
Ying Hook said with a smile, then pried open Bao Zheng’s mouth and poured the drink straight in.
Even if Bao Zheng wanted to refuse and break free, he couldn’t.
The ten of them were Celestial Immortals, whose immortality was fully stimulated by elixirs, and were inherently not very mighty beings.
In Ying Hook’s hands, what resistance could Bao Zheng have?
In less than an instant, he had been force-fed five cups.
Contrary to Bao Zheng’s expectations, he didn’t feel anything amiss, remained very sober, and had no sensation of drunkenness.
Could it be that Ying Hook and the others had too low of a tolerance for alcohol?
Bao Zheng thought for a moment, looked at the four men who seemed crazy, but whose eyes were calm, and he finally understood.
The four of them were not drunk at all; they were just fishing.
And the fish they were trying to catch was Lady Houtu.
If Lady Houtu knew they were drunk, wouldn’t she seize the chance to take down the Netherworld rather than wait for them to sober up?
Bao Zheng inwardly sighed; he was still too naive.
The hearts of immortals were filthy; he had even thought Sun Wukong had given up on everything.
To think that even while they were drinking, they had come up with this plan to trick Lady Houtu.
“Pretending to be drunk, don’t worry about so much,”
Ying Hook whispered to Bao Zheng.
Bao Zheng quickly understood and swayed slightly, then sat down on the ground with a silly giggle.
Another had become drunk, and his body gradually faded, adopting the shape of a living being.
Ying Hook watched the departing figure, suddenly sighed, and said, “I never expected it to be him.”
Who was he?
Everyone was puzzled.
“Poison Dragon Demon King.”
Ying Hook said.
When he had just been rescued by the powers of Mount Ling, Poison Dragon Demon King had followed him.
The two were saved at the same time, and with Ying Hook being the strongest, they all acknowledged Ying Hook as the boss.
Poison Dragon Demon King was one Ying Hook had high hopes for.
He never expected that he would betray Ying Hook.
At that moment, everyone’s drunkenness vanished.
Sun Wukong patted Ying Hook’s shoulder, saying nothing more.
The feeling of being betrayed was unpleasant, and he knew it all too well.
Just then, Ying Hook laughed.
“I’ve been wanting to eat snake stew, when he comes back, I’ll make snake soup for everyone.”
Ying Hook said with a laugh, evidently looking forward to it.
Sun Wukong: “...”
“If we add some dog meat, it would be quite the nourishment,”
Bao Zheng remarked from the side.
Two sharp gazes fell on him.
Yang Jian said, “You should feel lucky that the Heavenly Roaring Celestial Dog didn’t come today, or else you’d be bitten by a dog.”
Bao Zheng: “...”
Soon, the Poison Dragon Demon King returned.
When he saw Ying Hook and the others waiting for him, his heart shook, and he instantly knew something was wrong.
Before Poison Dragon Demon King could flee, Ying Hook rushed over and grabbed him.
“Great King, spare my life.”
“I can’t spare you.”
Ying Hook said indifferently.
With one hand, he gripped the Poison Dragon Demon King’s neck and jerked it violently.
There was a crack, and the Poison Dragon Demon King’s neck was twisted, his body pumped with tremendous force, and he was killed outright.
“Cook the snake soup, wait for Houtu.”
Ying Hook said coldly.
By this time, the Poison Dragon Demon King had reverted to his true form, a massive black venomous snake.
Ying Hook deftly skinned and gutted it, then cleaned it up.
He found a large pot and put the meat in.
Before long, a delightful fragrance wafted from the large pot.
