358: Chapter 200: Slaying the Dragon_6 358: Chapter 200: Slaying the Dragon_6 After waiting for a long time, Li Chang’an had not received any reply.
He gently furrowed his eyebrows, then lifted his head in a somewhat dazed manner.
Where could the Great Sage Equalling Heaven be?
Sun Wukong’s presence had long since vanished.
This left Li Chang’an somewhat disappointed, his expression gloomy.
He knew that Sun Wukong had rejected him, and the reason was simple: he was just an Earth Immortal, not strong enough.
Even to a Celestial Immortal, it was probably very difficult to qualify to follow the Great Sage Equalling Heaven.
He had heard a lot about the Great Sage’s deeds and knew that the Great Sage’s current status was among the top figures between heaven and earth.
To follow the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, one also needed corresponding strength.
Take a look at who is now beside the Great Sage: the Eight Immortals of the Upper Grotto, the Lion Camel King, Nu Ba, the Wealth Dragon Maiden, Ksitigarbha.
Even the Monk Fahai, whose fame was not widespread, was almost within reach of the Heavenly Venerate’s edge.
Most importantly, Fahai had made quite a name for himself in the Three Realms now, striking fear into the hearts of countless demons and ghosts with a single call of Mighty Heavenly Dragon.
The only relatively weak one would probably be Bai Yu.
But even he was a great Demon King, belonging to strong Celestial Immortals, with the inheritance of a Celestial Immortal.
A mere Earth Immortal really had no grounds to demand following Sun Wukong.
Li Chang’an’s eyes shone with determination; he would one day become a Celestial Immortal, or even rise to the status of Heavenly Venerate, following at the Great Sage’s side, slaying demons and exorcising devils together.
At this moment, his sword heart became even more resolute.
After leaving Southern Continent, Sun Wukong didn’t return to Huaguo Mountain.
He was searching for Sha Wujing’s whereabouts.
As Tathagata said, Sun Wukong needed to cut off some obsessions to transcend, to make a breakthrough for the Realm of Great Heavenly Venerate.
Only by reaching the Great Heavenly Venerate could he stand a chance to contend against the most elite strong beings.
Presently, his strength was still a bit too weak compared to the real powerhouses.
Sun Wukong himself was quite clear about this.
And so were his opponents.
“Great Saint, who are you looking for?”
Lady Dragon of Wealth asked.
Sun Wukong did not tell her, but Lady Dragon of Wealth could feel that Sun Wukong was searching for someone.
“Sha Wujing,”
Sun Wukong said.
“What do you need him for?
Oh, right, he and Little White Dragon did evil together; it’s indeed necessary to kill him.
Otherwise, those lives will have died in vain,”
Nu Ba spoke.
She thought Sun Wukong was looking for Sha Wujing to execute him and have him atone for his sins.
Lady Dragon of Wealth, looking thoughtful, stared at Sun Wukong, “Great Saint, are you practicing self-cultivation to sever your past?”
Nu Ba was taken aback; she didn’t realize there was such a method of cultivation.
Sun Wukong smiled slightly and said, “The Dragon Girl is quite right.
By severing some of the worries of the past, I would clear my Dao Heart even more, which would make it easier for me to challenge the Realm of the Great Heavenly Venerate.”
“Is there such a method of cultivation?”
Nu Ba asked curiously.
Nodding, Lady Dragon of Wealth replied, “Yes, it’s a method of cultivation from the Buddhist Sect to clarify the Dao Heart.
So one must use the Wisdom Sword to sever emotional ties.
The Great Saint intends to sever all the undesirable things for a smoother cultivation.”
Nu Ba’s expression turned strange as she stared at Sun Wukong, unable to resist asking, “Do you and Monk Sha have some sort of emotional bond?
That can’t be, Great Saint, you don’t really have that special preference.”
Sun Wukong glared at her and tapped her on the head.
“Nonsense, Old Sun likes women, how could I like even uglier men.”
The Demoness chuckled and said, “That’s not necessarily true, maybe you like those with abundant body hair.
Sha Wujing has so much body hair, he must really fit your aesthetic.”
Sun Wukong’s eyes almost rolled all the way back to heaven.
Faced with the Demoness’s questioning, he could only say, “My taste is very normal; actually, both you and the Dragon Girl are beautiful.
I’ve hardly seen any women more beautiful than you.”
“Ah.”
The Demoness hadn’t expected Sun Wukong to suddenly come out with such words, and her face turned bright red with embarrassment.
She bit her lip, her eyes filled with tender feelings as she stared at Sun Wukong and asked, “Do you really think we are beautiful?”
“Nation’s beauty and heavenly fragrance, stunning and unparalleled in this world.”
Sun Wukong said with certainty, using three idioms in a row.
Both women blushed.
Even Lady Dragon of Wealth asked, “Then does the Great Saint like us or not?”
“Like you, of course.”
Sun Wukong answered earnestly.
Before the two women could feel thrilled, Sun Wukong continued, “Just like I also like He Xiangu, like Fan Yao, like Lu Dongbin, and like Ksitigarbha.
You are all Old Sun’s friends, and of course, Old Sun likes you.”
The two Demonesses were initially delighted, thinking that Sun Wukong had finally accepted them.
But after hearing Sun Wukong’s words, their faces turned dark.
The kind of ‘like’ they wanted wasn’t the kind Sun Wukong was talking about.
They gave Sun Wukong a scornful glance, having no way to deal with this romantically clueless blockhead.
What the two women didn’t see was Sun Wukong secretly wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, having finally muddled through.
“Alright, enough talk.
Let’s go find Sha Wujing.
After we find him, I can go to Mount Ling and look for Jin Chan.”
Sun Wukong changed the subject.
Upon hearing that Sun Wukong was going to Mount Ling, the two immediately became nervous.
Mount Ling was not a good place; the monks there were nasty and ugly, all wanting to harm the Great Sage Equalling Heaven.
Just then, a light laughter came, and Jin Chan had arrived.
“Wukong, you don’t need to look for me; I’ve come myself.”
He appeared not far from Sun Wukong, smiling broadly.
Yet, Sun Wukong directly pulled out his Jingu Bang from his ear and smashed it towards him.
Immediately, Jin Chan was thrown into a panic.
He used his Nine Ringed Staff to block Sun Wukong’s Jingu Bang, then shouted loudly, “Don’t attack, I have something to say.”
The aura of the Great Heavenly Venerate was released from Jin Chan’s body, yet he was still pushed back by Sun Wukong’s blow.
Astonishment appeared on Jin Chan’s face, and he couldn’t help saying, “Your strength has improved again; even though I’ve become the Great Heavenly Venerate, I am still no match for you.”
“Say your last words then.”
Sun Wukong’s Jingu Bang pointed at Jin Chan.
“I don’t want to die.”
Jin Chan shook his head and uttered these four words very seriously.
Sun Wukong: “...”
