361: Chapter 201 Fahai Captured_3 361: Chapter 201 Fahai Captured_3 Sun Wukong glanced at the Great Emperor Ziwei. This guy was very pragmatic; he definitely wouldn’t seek him out unless there was an issue. Since he had come to him, there must definitely have been something that happened. “Indeed worthy of the Great Sage Equalling Heaven.” The Great Emperor Ziwei exclaimed. Sun Wukong pursed his lips and ignored his sycophantic flatteries. With a serious expression, the Great Emperor Ziwei said, “Wukong, I want to assign you an official position.” “No way.” Two words, a direct refusal, without any hesitation. The Great Emperor Ziwei was choked up, unable to speak for a while. In the Three Realms today, the only one who dared to disrespect him like this was Sun Wukong alone. After a while, the Great Emperor Ziwei finally said, “Can you hear me out before refusing?” The Great Emperor Ziwei looked aggrieved, much like a spurned woman. Sun Wukong said nothing. Seeing that he tacitly agreed not to speak, the Great Emperor Ziwei smiled inwardly, and quickly said, “I want to appoint you as one of the Four Heavenly Kings; what do you think?” “No way.” Still those two crisp words, nearly choking the Great Emperor Ziwei into silence. He hadn’t expected that even the position of the Four Heavenly Kings wouldn’t tempt Sun Wukong. “It’s better this way; without a position, I am even more free, and whether I am one of the Four Heavenly Kings or not, what difference does it make to me? Or are you saying the gods and Buddhas of the Three Realms wouldn’t fear me just because I’m not one of the Four Heavenly Kings?” Facing Sun Wukong’s questions, the Great Emperor Ziwei could only give a wry smile. The gods and Buddhas of the Three Realms feared Sun Wukong due to his strength and tactics, naturally having nothing to do with any official position. But Sun Wukong’s refusal still left him quite frustrated. “Why do you want me to be one of the Four Heavenly Kings?” Sun Wukong stared at the Great Emperor Ziwei. The latter was well aware of his thoughts, yet he still pursued him for the position of the Four Heavenly Kings. If there were no issues, that would be strange. “Is there some rumor, involving Old Sun, that you’ve taken to heart?” Sun Wukong mused; this was the only possibility he could think of, otherwise what could it be? With a sigh, the Great Emperor Ziwei said, “Indeed there are rumors, but not about you, about me.” His eyes lit up a bit, Sun Wukong stared at the Great Emperor Ziwei, now genuinely interested. “Go on.” Sighing, the Great Emperor Ziwei said with a sullen face, “There are rumors that I am using you, and once I ascend to the position of the Great Heavenly Venerate, I will find ways to have you killed. Not assigning you an official position now is just preparing for that day, so that even if you were to be killed, it wouldn’t cause too much of a stir in the Three Realms.” Sun Wukong nodded, saying seriously, “This rumor isn’t wrong. Prominence breeds envy; the dead rabbit’s pelt is prized, and the flyer’s freedom hides the hunter’s bow. It makes perfect sense.” Seeing that he seemed to believe it, the Great Emperor Ziwei instantly panicked. He hurriedly said, “Nonsense! You believe those scoundrels? How could I ever do that to you? I consider you a close friend and would never think of harming you. And I understand you, too: all this talk of prominence breeding envy is nonsense. Even if I became the Great Heavenly Venerate with 90% because of you, you wouldn’t harbor such intentions, nor would I have any desire to harm you. They are all talking nonsense.” Sun Wukong stared curiously at the Great Emperor Ziwei, unable to help but laugh. “If you know they are talking nonsense, why bother me? Are you that bored?” Great Emperor Ziwei: “...” “Get lost.” Sun Wukong kicked him out. The Great Emperor Ziwei flew out of the Water Curtain Cave and crashed heavily to the ground. Everyone was startled, unsure of what had just happened. However, the Great Emperor Ziwei suddenly burst into laughter, his face full of excitement. Everyone thought, has this guy gone mad? Of course, they didn’t dare to voice such thoughts. The man before them was, after all, the Great Heavenly Venerate of the Three Realms, not someone they could afford to offend. “Good, just like the old times. Ha ha.” After saying that, the Great Emperor Ziwei laughed loudly a few times, then turned and left. All that was left was a group of people with baffled faces, exchanging confused looks, entirely unsure of what had just happened. The Great Emperor Ziwei gone mad? That was the only explanation that made sense. Sun Wukong sat cross-legged inside the Water Curtain Cave, his aura flickering intermittently, as he had already entered meditation. The appearance of Jin Chan, pleading for mercy, however, reminded Sun Wukong of something. The Wisdom Sword cutting off things from the past didn’t have to literally kill that person. It was enough to sever the other in one’s thoughts. Sun Wukong successfully cut away some unruly thoughts, but when he touched the deepest memories, a distinguished, kind-looking man appeared, gazing at him with an indulgent smile. Instantly, Sun Wukong’s eyes reddened. He couldn’t help but call out “Master.” Just as he was about to rush forward, the figure changed, turning into the Jade Emperor, who gazed fiercely at him and then crushed Sun Wukong underfoot, grinding him into death. Sun Wukong’s eyes snapped open, and he broke out in a cold sweat. He opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and subdued his aura. For a long time, Sun Wukong had believed that he had successfully severed the attachment to his master, worn it away. Having realized the true identity of his master once, he had let go. But reality told him that this was only what he had thought. For Sun Wukong, the greatest knot in his heart was still his direct master.
