302: Chapter 191 Really a Demon_4 302: Chapter 191 Really a Demon_4 Only a being like Ao Zhan, who had lived since ancient times, would possess a bone-deep instinct, an inherent desire for combat. The crowd bid their farewells, and Sun Wukong thanked everyone one by one. Zhenyuan was the last to leave. He approached Sun Wukong and said solemnly, “Wukong, if you ever plan to do something and you’re not completely sure of your success, send me a message. I will surely come to your aid. I do not wish to see incidents like today’s happen again.” Hearing Zhenyuan’s words, Sun Wukong knew he was showing concern, and he quickly replied, “Rest assured, big brother, I understand. It won’t happen again.” Only then did Zhenyuan show a satisfied expression. He gave a faint smile and said, “Wukong, I hope you remember your words. Don’t forget that you have a big brother, the venerable Ancestor of Earth Immortals. There aren’t many in the Three Realms I can’t defeat.” Sun Wukong nodded vigorously. In truth, he wanted to say that the enemies he troubled were mostly beyond your reach. Of course, he would not be so insensitive as to dampen the high spirits of his sworn big brother. Zhenyuan also left contentedly. Before Chi You left, he told Sun Wukong, “Next time you find yourself in a fight, remember to call on me. My hands are itching for a good, hearty battle.” “No problem,” Sun Wukong said with a smile. Chi You then departed, satisfied. Most of the people had gone, leaving only Great Emperor Ziwei and his company. “Ying Hook, my brother, from now on the Netherworld will be in your care. If anything comes up, notify the Heavenly Court immediately. I will send someone to help without delay,” Great Emperor Ziwei said with a smile. Ying Hook sighed, his tone tinged with frustration, “I thought becoming the ruler of the Netherworld was a cushy job where I’d do nothing. Little did I expect that in just a few days, I’d be waging war. It seems it won’t be so easy for me to slack off after all.” Though he sounded a bit gloomy, his face was filled with enthusiasm. For an ancient warrior of the Human Race, combat was undoubtedly one of the most interesting activities. Then, Ying Hook smiled and said, “But Your Majesty can rest assured, with me guarding the Netherworld, it won’t fall unless I am dead. It won’t succumb before that happens.” Great Emperor Ziwei’s expression grew serious as he shook his head and said, “I must disagree with you. My requirement is that there be no senseless sacrifices. Even if the Netherworld is lost, I want you, Brother Ying Hook, alive. If necessary, we can reclaim the Netherworld later. There’s no need to lose your life over it.” Ying Hook regarded Great Emperor Ziwei with an odd look. If Great Emperor Ziwei was trying to win him over, his tone was exceedingly sincere, showing no signs of ulterior motives. But if he was not attempting to curry favor, then the character of Great Emperor Ziwei was indeed beyond reproach. Ying Hook glanced at Sun Wukong and suddenly understood why Sun Wukong was willing to mingle with Great Emperor Ziwei. It wasn’t that Great Emperor Ziwei had given Sun Wukong particularly great benefits, but rather that the sense of humanity he exuded was not something ordinary people possessed—Ying Hook found it very appealing. Ying Hook smiled and nodded, saying, “Understood.” Only then did Great Emperor Ziwei breathe a sigh of relief. Afterward, Ying Hook left to deal with the aftermath of the battle in the Netherworld. At this moment, Great Emperor Ziwei’s gaze fell on Yang Jian and Nezha. “Brother Yang Jian, there is something I would like to discuss with you,” Yang Jian felt unexpectedly honored, as the Great Heavenly Venerate was speaking to him so politely. Even with his obstinate nature, he quickly responded, “You flatter me, Great Heavenly Venerate. Please speak your mind.” Great Emperor Ziwei said with a deep voice, “I would like you to take up the position of Judicial Deity.” Yang Jian was shocked. The Judicial Deity wasn’t just any position. One could even say that the Judicial Deity ranked second only to the Heavenly Venerate himself, commanding immense authority. That Great Emperor Ziwei wanted him to become the Judicial Deity showed his tremendous trust in Yang Jian. Nezha couldn’t contain his excitement as he exclaimed, “Big brother, the Judicial Deity! You must accept it.” This wasn’t an honorary title but a real position of power, second only to Ziwei himself. If Ziwei were to be a bit more hands-off, Yang Jian could practically do as he pleased within the Ziwei Heavenly Court. However, Yang Jian shook his head and said, “I haven’t done enough to deserve such a post, and Wukong would be more suitable for this role than I. He is honest and upright, and the position of Judicial Deity is meant for him.” Great Emperor Ziwei glanced at Sun Wukong and asked, “Do you think this monkey would be willing to take it?” Sun Wukong glanced back, and the words “Dream on” almost slipped out. But he showed a bit of restraint, after all, not voicing the thought. Great Emperor Ziwei continued, “Wukong refuses to officially join the Heavenly Court, only bearing a title. This allows him to act on a whim. Brother Yang Jian, you’re different. You are honest and upright too, but you know how to be flexible and handle matters efficiently. With your renown as the top War God of the Heavenly Court, the position of Judicial Deity is meant for you. If Wukong became the Judicial Deity, I fear my subordinates would all be killed by him before long.” Sun Wukong glared at him, thinking, Am I that savage? Seeing Yang Jian still hesitant, Great Emperor Ziwei’s face darkened, and he said with some displeasure, “Brother Yang Jian, are you looking down upon my ‘small temple’? Do you believe that I am bound to fail, and that is why you are reluctant to accept the position of Judicial Deity?” Yang Jian hurriedly shook his head, replying with a wry smile, “I would never dare to think so. Since the Great Heavenly Venerate has placed his trust in me, I will accept the position of Judicial Deity. If the Great Emperor finds a better candidate, I am willing to step down to make way.”
