340: Chapter 198: The Wicked Servant and the Grand Sorcerer 340: Chapter 198: The Wicked Servant and the Grand Sorcerer The old factions of the Heavenly Court had essentially been seized, with only Houtu and the Longevity Great Emperor remaining unclaimed. Both had powerful backers, one being the Jade Emperor, and the other, Shao Siming. Thus, even though the power of the Ziwei Heavenly Palace was not weak now, they were reluctant to provoke them easily. Of course, this was only temporary, as the Ziwei Heavenly Court was currently suppressing them in various ways. Once the opportune moment arrived, they would definitely take action to reclaim these two territories. Even the Jade Emperor and Shao Siming could not influence the determination of the Ziwei Heavenly Court. At this stage, as long as the Jade Emperor and Shao Siming did not intervene, the situation where the Great Emperor Ziwei governed the Three Realms was basically set. Sun Wukong was up on Huaguo Mountain, enjoying his leisure. Every day, he preached and discussed the path of cultivation with Lu Dongbin and others. In fact, Sun Wukong still had deficiencies in cultivation. He had advanced too quickly, and his comprehension in each realm was somewhat lacking. After Lu Dongbin methodically explained it and through others’ insights, he gained enlightenment and greatly improved his realm. Cultivation emphasizes the importance of law, wealth, companions, and location, none of which can be lacking. Sun Wukong had previously lacked a companion, but now he finally had one. Everyone could feel that Sun Wukong’s Taoist realm was improving every day. This made them marvel at how astonishing the Great Saint truly was. The order of the Three Realms gradually stabilized. Apart from the Demon King of the Celestial Immortal realm, none of the lesser demons dared to stir up trouble. Now, with the strict laws of the Ziwei Heavenly Court, the Thunder Department would intervene at the first sign of demonic disturbance. Even the great demons of the Celestial Immortal realm, not under the jurisdiction of the Thunder Department, were also targeted and many were killed. Only some outstanding figures among the Celestial Immortals could still move freely. The caveat being that they must not commit any acts of evil, otherwise, even these powerful beings among the Celestial Immortals would be struck down. The world was clear and orderly. Meanwhile, the Great Emperor Ziwei sent down a Divine Thought to the mortal world. An Emperor Star descended, and the Human Race began to unify. Within less than thirty years, the entire Southern Continent was unified. The Southern Continent, known then as Great Han, quickly became the supreme ruler of the world. The Human Race prospered, and in just a few decades, developed significantly. Outside the Southern Continent, others also followed the lead of the Southern Continent, treating it as the imperial dynasty. With human paths flourishing, the cultivation of the Great Emperor Ziwei progressed by leaps and bounds every day. He had once visited Sun Wukong, who could feel the strong aura emanating from the Great Emperor Ziwei, laden with immense pressure. Even Sun Wukong was moved and could not help but marvel at the allure of the position of the Great Heavenly Venerate, noting that just the elevation in strength was enough to make many vie for it, Great Emperor Ziwei’s previous strength was well known to Sun Wukong, and even if it had been stronger than his current level, it would not have been by much. It had not been long, and Sun Wukong felt that now Tathagata might not fare well against Great Emperor Ziwei, their power was almost equal. It seemed that soon, the Great Emperor Ziwei’s strength would reach the level of Shao Siming. At that time, the Great Emperor Ziwei would truly be the Supreme of the Three Realms, possessing unparalleled dominion. Although Sun Wukong did not hold an official position in the Heavenly Court, no one dared to underestimate him. After all, who would dare to underestimate someone known as the ‘Emperor’s Companion’? The mere fact that the Great Emperor Ziwei visited Huaguo Mountain every now and then to meet Sun Wukong spoke volumes, The relationship between these two was not merely good, they were exceptionally close, almost like brothers. Sun Wukong lay on a rattan chair, enjoying grapes handed to him by Nu Ba, and sipping fine wine passed by the Wealth Dragon Maiden, living the good life. Even he felt that his bones had softened a bit. They say love is a burial ground for heroes, and at this moment, Sun Wukong thought there was much truth in that statement, At least from his current perspective, it seemed accurate, as even his will to fight had somewhat eroded. If those troublemakers did not stir again, perhaps Sun Wukong would prefer to continue living this way indefinitely. “Let’s go for a walk.” Sun Wukong smiled and stood up from the rattan chair. He felt that he could not continue like this, his spirit for battle was nearly extinguished. Nu Ba and the Wealth Dragon Maiden exchanged glances, then smiled and nodded lightly. The two made preparations, then they left Huaguo Mountain. Watching the three figures departing, Lu Dongbin’s expression was peculiar. People said he was a certain way, but heavens be kind, he was still of the Pure Yang body, and yet Sun Wukong, surrounded by beauties, had not a hint of ill-repute, which made Lu Dongbin very indignant. “Immortal Maiden, don’t you think the Great Saint is that way?” Lu Dongbin asked He Xiangu. He Xiangu gave him a glance and flatly said, “Don’t talk nonsense. The Great Saint is a hero among heroes, how could he possibly be whatever you’re insinuating? Don’t talk nonsense.” Lu Dongbin became anxious and blurted out, “But the Great Saint has two ladies with him, doesn’t that prove it?” “Heroes deserve beautiful women, do you think everyone is like you? Even if someone gave you Zhong Wuyan, you would be punching above your weight.” He Xiangu shot back mercilessly. Lu Dongbin: “...” He badly wanted to retort, but with the hot-tempered He Xiangu in front of him, if he dared, he would surely be pummeled by her. Although he was now a powerful Heavenly Venerate, facing the only woman among the Eight Immortals, he naturally could not retaliate.
