309: Chapter 192: Let the Dragon Clan Take Action_3 309: Chapter 192: Let the Dragon Clan Take Action_3 Only by taking down the Thunder Department can the Ziwei Heavenly Court become more dignified. Currently, Thunderous Heavenly Venerate, an incarnation of the Longevity Great Emperor from the South Pole, does not share the same heart with them. Trying to persuade him to surrender is simply impossible. The other three among the Four Heavenly Kings, everyone present is well aware of what they are thinking. “The Judicial Deity is right, the Thunder Department is indeed of utmost importance, but how can we seize control of the Thunder Department without diminishing its strength, and yet achieve the goal of taking it over?” Sa Shoujian pondered. “The Great Saint once promised the Dragon Clan that once the Thunder Department was taken, they would control it, so some loss of its strength wouldn’t matter. With the Dragon Clan’s capabilities, they can fully replenish that force,” Great Emperor Ziwei revealed the agreement between Sun Wukong and the Dragon Clan. The crowd was not surprised by this revelation. It was Sun Wukong who facilitated the allegiance of the Dragon Clan to the Ziwei Heavenly Court. Combined with his relationship with Great Emperor Ziwei, whatever he promised is essentially as if Ziwei himself had agreed, so there was no cause for surprise. Given the current strength of the Dragon Clan, controlling the Thunder Department would be more than feasible. The main issue now is how to take down the Thunder Department. Venus Taibai said solemnly, “Since Your Majesty does not care about the damage to the Thunder Department, my suggestion is to directly seize Thunderous Heavenly Venerate, either by suppressing him or executing him.” Upon hearing Venus Taibai’s words, the assembly was shocked. This old fellow has a vicious mind; something never seen during his service under the Jade Emperor. Now serving under Great Emperor Ziwei, he seems even more fierce. Given his status as the chief civil official, Venus Taibai’s authority in the Ziwei Heavenly Court is second only to Great Emperor Ziwei and Yang Jian, the Judicial Deity. “I will take action personally,” Great Emperor Ziwei said after some thought. In Ziwei Heavenly Court, only if he personally intervened was there a chance to completely take down Thunderous Heavenly Venerate. However, Venus Taibai shook his head and said, “Your Majesty is the Great Heavenly Venerate, representing the heaven of the Three Realms, and cannot act rashly.” Great Emperor Ziwei glared at him dissatisfiedly and retorted, “Then will you go?” Venus Taibai smiled and replied, “Your servant believes that with the Judicial Deity and the Great Saint taking action, they can capture Thunderous Heavenly Venerate.” “Wukong has not sent any word, and we don’t know the exact situation. I regret letting him go to the Netherworld alone. If I hadn’t put on the airs of the Great Heavenly Venerate and acted personally, none of these issues would have arisen,” Great Emperor Ziwei said with a look of frustration. The ministers all showed knowing smiles. Over the years, it was not the first time Great Emperor Ziwei had said something like this. From this, one can see the extent of his close relationship with Sun Wukong. At the same time, he was also a Heavenly Venerate with a compassionate heart. Actually, to be the Heavenly Venerate of the Three Realms does not require too much scheming; all that is needed is a heart to protect the common people and sufficient strength. All the scheming amounts to nothing in the face of absolute power. “Tsk tsk, so His Majesty actually cares about Old Sun so much; this truly touches Old Sun,” a light laughter came through, along with Sun Wukong’s somewhat teasing words. Great Emperor Ziwei turned abruptly and immediately saw Sun Wukong. His face showed excitement, and he stood up from his throne. “Wukong, you finally appeared. I thought something had happened to you. It’s great that you’re unharmed,” Great Emperor Ziwei went to greet him but then remembered his role as the Great Heavenly Venerate and restrained himself. He sat back on his throne, but everyone could see the unrestrainable smile on the face of Great Emperor Ziwei. Upon the ‘Emperor’s’ return, the Great Emperor seemed like a completely different person. Sun Wukong simply smiled and said, “Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. After leaving seclusion, I felt a bit troubled, so I went to travel around the mortal world. I also checked on the situation of the Human Race. As the Heavenly Emperor appointed by the living beings of the Human Race, you mustn’t let them suffer through the ravages of war again.” Hearing Sun Wukong’s words, Sa Shoujian said, “The Great Saint is right, Your Majesty was just discussing with us how to resolve the chaos among the Human Race. But to thoroughly solve the crisis facing the Human Race, we must first take down the Thunder Department.” Sun Wukong spoke with some surprise, “Sa Shoujian, even after I killed your disciple, you are still willing to join Great Emperor Ziwei?” It’s commonly known that Wang Shan was a disciple of Sa Shoujian. Both mentor and student are Heavenly Venerates, yet Sa Shoujian, as a Daoist Heavenly Master, holds a higher status than Wang Shan. Among the four great Heavenly Masters, both Sa Shoujian and Zhang Celestial Master stand as powerful Heavenly Venerates with strength unfathomable. Sa Shoujian smiled faintly and stated, “What I vowed allegiance to was the orthodoxy of the Heavenly Court. As a Heavenly Master of the Daoist Sect, my duty is to protect the living beings. Wang Shan harbored selfish desires, and for personal gain, he did not hesitate to harm the interests of the living beings of the Three Realms. Such a traitorous disciple deserved death. Even if the Great Saint hadn’t killed him, I would have done it sooner or later.” A hint of murderous intent flashed in Sa Shoujian’s eyes, clearly revealing his dissatisfaction with Wang Shan. Sun Wukong raised his thumb in approval. Such a Daoist Heavenly Master is truly deserving of respect. He decided not to dwell further on this topic and said to Great Emperor Ziwei, “Great Emperor, actually, I already have someone in mind to take down the Thunder Department.” “Who?” Great Emperor Ziwei inquired. “The Sea Dragon Clan themselves. With their sufficient strength, they can easily overturn Thunderous Heavenly Venerate. Let them take action themselves; I believe the Dragon Clan would be more than willing to do so,” Sun Wukong chuckled. He had no plans to take action himself. If the Dragon Clan wanted the Thunder Department, they would fight for it themselves.
