Capítulo 1275: Chapter 420: Emptied Out
Sun Wukong accepted everything without hesitation.
In the endless unknown, three pairs of eyes were watching Doushuai Temple.
When he saw Sun Wukong shamelessly accepting the items, Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate’s mouth twitched.
He glanced at Elder Lord and asked, “Is this guy really not your illegitimate child? Why are you so good to him?”
Lord Taishang’s eyes bulged, almost ready to take action.
His illegitimate child is a stone monkey? Isn’t this indirectly saying he did something with stones?
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate laughed awkwardly, realizing his joke had gone too far.
However, he was still curious and said, “Joking aside, what do you really mean?”
Lord Taishang said softly, “I think this time Sun Wukong and the others can triumph, so giving that monkey some benefits beforehand is wise. When that monkey rises up in the future, what do you think he will do?”
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate thought seriously for a moment, then said, “That monkey might very well ride on our heads and defecate.”
Lord Taishang deeply agreed, nodding as he said, “Therefore, giving that monkey some benefits first ensures that if he really rises as we imagined, he wouldn’t be too excessive with us in the future.”
Lingbao Dao Venerate was speechless and glanced at the two, saying, “Elder Lord, you’re really open-minded. Are you really willing for anyone to stand above us?”
Lord Taishang glanced at Lingbao Dao Venerate and said irritably, “I haven’t mentioned you yet. Over the years, if not for your help to Haotian, would he have risen to this point? Don’t think I don’t know.”
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate was shocked, staring at Lingbao Dao Venerate, evidently surprised by his clandestine assistance to Haotian.
Moreover, Elder Lord knew about it.
Realizing this, Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate’s face turned dark.
He immediately understood that this matter was likely unknown only to him.
Lingbao Dao Venerate acted in secret, Lord Taishang knew yet didn’t inform him.
The two were quite in sync, but both kept it from him.
He stared at the two, his face dark like coal.
“Ahem, where were we? Oh right, we were talking about the monkey, about the monkey…”
Lord Taishang immediately realized he misspoke and hastily changed the subject.
“What’s the deal with Haotian?”
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate asked.
Lord Taishang instantly fell silent, indicating for Lingbao Dao Venerate to speak.
Under Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate’s gaze, Lingbao Dao Venerate had no choice but to open his mouth.
“I simply wanted to create a master of the Creation Realm, and I thought you all misjudged Haotian. He wasn’t what you imagined him to be, instead standing on behalf of the Three Realms, so I helped him a lot secretly.”
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate remained expressionless, staring at Lingbao Dao Venerate coldly as he asked, “And the outcome?”
Lingbao Dao Venerate’s mouth twitched, sighing as he said, “Who would have thought, this guy is so shameless, he tricked me.”
“Idiot.”
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate cursed.
However, seeing Lingbao Dao Venerate’s ashamed expression, he didn’t continue to rebuke.
They were old comrades who survived from the most formidable realm, further insults would be inappropriate.
Lingbao Dao Venerate looked abashed, having been previously proud, believing he had sharp insights.
Now, he realized how outlandishly wrong he was.
He had misjudged Haotian God and been deceived.
Now it’s too late for regrets; he can only swallow this embarrassment.
Lingbao Dao Venerate thought no one knew, yet didn’t expect Elder Lord to know everything.
At this moment, he looked at Lord Taishang in confusion, asking, “How do you know so much about my matters? Are you always watching me?”
Lord Taishang smiled faintly without speaking.
A glint flashed in Lingbao Dao Venerate’s eyes, and he exclaimed in surprise, “No way, could it be you’ve surpassed the Creation Realm? Otherwise, why can’t I sense anything when you watch me?”
Lord Taishang shook his head, saying, “I have not surpassed the Creation Realm, still at this level.”
“Then why?”
Lingbao Dao Venerate was truly puzzled.
“If one does not wish others to know, one must not act themselves. Every time you met us with that guilty look, who wouldn’t see through it unless they were fools?”
Lord Taishang laughed.
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate immediately slapped over, aware the guy intentionally belittled him.
Lingbao Dao Venerate was also speechless, having thought he concealed well, but was still seen through by Lord Taishang.
That guy truly deserved to be the wisest.
The three weren’t actually concerned, after all, everything done was for this expanse of heaven and earth.
Only by thoroughly eliminating that group of destroyers can all beings truly find peace.
Sun Wukong scavenged Doushuai Temple once more, moving away all useful items.
Upon seeing this, Lord Taishang’s eyes flared.
He gasped, this monkey was too much, was he planning to empty all of Doushuai Temple?
Some items he didn’t care about and didn’t take, but that didn’t mean they weren’t good things.
Finally, when he saw Sun Wukong even moving the cattle trough, Lord Taishang’s eyes burned with anger.
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate and Lingbao Dao Venerate stared agape, then looked at Lord Taishang with sympathy, he was just smug, but couldn’t laugh now.
Breathing heavily, Lord Taishang wanted nothing more than to reveal himself and beat Sun Wukong up.
When Sun Wukong saw that Doushuai Temple was nearly dismantled, he felt a bit sheepish.
He chuckled dryly and rushed out.
“Brother, you came to the Heavenly Court, why not visit your brother?”
A voice came, it was Marshal Tianpeng.
At this moment, he was quite proud, flying over from not too far, greeting Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong smiled, saying, “You fool, now daring to blame your brother? I’ve been on Huaguo Mountain, yet you never visit often, and now you’re blaming me.”
Marshal Tianpeng scratched his head, chuckled, and said, “It’s my mistake, I’m now inviting brother for a drink, and there are also some old friends wanting to meet brother.”
“No problem.”
Sun Wukong didn’t decline.
In the Heavenly Palace, he had many old acquaintances; back then in the Immortal Realm, he made plenty of drinking buddies.
Of course, not truly close friends; Nezha was only half considered.
As for Yang Jian, they appreciated each other, feeling a kinship between rivals of equal strength.
Their friendship was forged after emerging from the nineteenth layer of hell.
They went to the Marshal’s Mansion, where Nishang Fairy and Gao Cuilan hastily entertained them.
They knew that although their husbands were Marshal Tianpeng, holding high positions and being key officials in the Heavenly Court.
He, the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, was the real big shot.
In a certain sense, his status in the Heavenly Palace was no weaker than the Great Emperor Ziwei.
Equivalent to Yang Jian being another Second Heavenly Emperor.
Their husband’s current status and prestige were inseparable from Sun Wukong.
