Chapter 1168: Chapter 361: Welcoming the Angel (2)
Nowadays, there are so many powerful beings, even Supreme beings are quite common.
Although he has become the Great Heavenly Venerate, when faced with a true Supreme being, he is still insufficient.
To protect all living beings and safeguard this realm, one must become a Supreme being.
In recent years, the True Martial Great Emperor has made rapid progress, and has now entered the ranks of Sub-Paramount.
He is not far from the Supreme Realm.
At Huaguo Mountain, after a grand feast ends, everyone departs separately.
The Queen Mother of the West stays behind, making Sun Wukong a bit uneasy.
What is this woman up to again?
Won’t she actually volunteer to share a bed tonight?
With doubts in his heart, Sun Wukong feels the Queen Mother of the West’s gaze on him is full of aggression.
He remains cautious throughout the night, worried about being overpowered.
The main concern about being overpowered is that it’s quite embarrassing.
However, the Queen Mother of the West is rather tame, chatting in whispers with Nu Ba and the others.
By the second morning, she leaves without causing any disturbance.
Sun Wukong breathes a slight sigh of relief, and also finds it somewhat amusing.
What is he worried about, at his realm, whether he has a Pure Yang Body or not is entirely inconsequential, it won’t affect his cultivation, if something is meant to happen, let it occur naturally.
At this moment, within the Three Realms, news spreads that Emperor Jun wants to collaborate with the Heavenly Court.
Upon hearing this news, many people sneer.
Just a couple of days ago, Emperor Jun’s First Marshal died at Sun Wukong’s hands, and a great battle erupted between them.
Emperor Jun, once a Heavenly Emperor, how could he reconcile with the Heavenly Court?
Either the person spreading this news is insane, or they are crazy.
But soon, the news spreads wildly.
Many people are bewildered, some are skeptical.
Could it be that Emperor Jun truly plans to collaborate with the Heavenly Court?
In recent years, Emperor Jun has been suppressed by the Heavenly Court, withdrawing to the Western Continent, unable to make any advancements, with no achievements.
If not for recently exterminating dozens of sects across the Three Realms, people would have nearly forgotten about them in the Western Continent.
Xihe and the others are somewhat flabbergasted.
Emperor Jun’s followers naturally refuse to believe such rumors.
They sneer and rebuke this sort of speculation.
Given the years of camaraderie between Emperor Jun and Ji Meng, how could he easily ally with the one who killed Ji Meng, absolutely impossible.
The Eastern Emperor Tai Yi’s faction also hears such a statement, and Senior Commander-in-Chief immediately seeks out Eastern Emperor Tai Yi.
"Your Majesty, Emperor Jun wants to ally with the Heavenly Court, possibly targeting us."
As he speaks, Senior Commander-in-Chief’s gaze falls on Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, hesitates for a moment, and finally asks: "What exactly did Your Majesty do to lead Emperor Jun to ally with the Heavenly Court?"
Others may think this news is fake, but Senior Commander-in-Chief doesn’t.
No smoke without fire.
Especially such an outrageous rumor.
Emperor Jun might have sensed something, hence the alliance with the Heavenly Court.
What on earth did His Majesty do to disquiet Emperor Jun, making him seek allies?
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi doesn’t answer but instead asks: "Are you questioning me?"
Senior Commander-in-Chief’s body trembles, kneels instantly on the ground, saying fearfully: "This subject wouldn’t dare."
Two icy, terror-inducing gazes fall upon Senior Commander-in-Chief, making him unable to raise his head.
Senior Commander-in-Chief has a feeling that Eastern Emperor Tai Yi at this moment is utterly terrifying, ready to take his life at any second.
"Heh."
A light chuckle.
"Senior Commander-in-Chief, you don’t need to be so tense, I’m merely teasing you, we’ve been monarch and subject for so many years, do you still not understand me? It seems Emperor Jun misunderstood something, it’s nothing."
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi’s calm voice sounds, with a hint of amusement.
Senior Commander-in-Chief finally looks up, he breathes a sigh of relief and wryly says: "Your Majesty’s majesty has grown increasingly intense, even a joke is something this subject cannot bear."
"Alright, don’t overthink it, regarding Emperor Jun, I shall explain to him."
"Yes, this subject retreats."
Senior Commander-in-Chief steps back.
Once Senior Commander-in-Chief leaves, a voice rises beside Eastern Emperor Tai Yi.
"Your subordinate has doubts about you, you should deal with it promptly."
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi’s eyes suddenly turn cold, he says chillingly: "You better not meddle, Senior Commander-in-Chief and I are like brothers, if you dare harm him, don’t blame me for turning against you."
"Heh, you can betray your homeland but can’t leave this brother, how amusing."
That voice carries mockery.
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi remains silent, his expression cold.
"Rest assured, I won’t touch him, provided he doesn’t obstruct our plans, otherwise..."
That voice continues.
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, however, coldly says: "Even if he does something, it won’t be for you to deal with, I shall handle it myself, do not interfere in my matters."
"Heh."
A soft laugh, and that voice becomes silent.
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi takes a deep breath, his gaze somewhat profound, icy, and emotionless.
Senior Commander-in-Chief is already drenched in cold sweat, stepping outside the Divine Temple, feeling as if he’s narrowly escaped death.
Shao Siming approaches with some worry, glancing at Senior Commander-in-Chief, uncertain about what happened inside the Divine Temple.
Senior Commander-in-Chief’s gaze falls on Shao Siming’s flawless face, his lips move slightly, but he says nothing.
They move far from this place, and Senior Commander-in-Chief sets up a barrier, then uses Divine Thought Transmission.
"If I meet any misfortune, do not seek revenge for me, immediately defect to the Heavenly Court."
Shao Siming’s almond eyes widen, her pretty face is filled with disbelief.
She wants to speak but is stopped by Senior Commander-in-Chief’s look.
Then, Senior Commander-in-Chief says: "Rest assured, His Majesty is still the same as before, unchanged, I am no longer worried."
Shao Siming instantly understands Senior Commander-in-Chief’s meaning.
She uses Divine Thought Transmission: "What happened?"
However, aloud she says: "Then I’m relieved, I’ve told you long ago, His Majesty hasn’t changed, you’re just paranoid, distrustful of me."
"There is someone beside His Majesty, even earlier, His Majesty felt like killing me, combined with Emperor Jun’s situation, I worry His Majesty has already sided with alien race from beyond, posing a great threat to the Three Realms."
Senior Commander-in-Chief uses Divine Thought Transmission.
On the surface he rubs his temples, sighing: "It’s just recent pressures are too great, we’ve returned to the Three Realms, yet accomplished nothing, I’m anxious, thus a bit restless."
"Alien beings? The ones who annihilate various realms?"
Shao Siming is shocked.
She taps Senior Commander-in-Chief’s forehead with slender jade fingers, her gaze very alluring.
"You’re too tightly wound, let me relieve your stress."
The following content is unsuitable for display.
Nevertheless, their Divine Thought Exchange continues.
Senior Commander-in-Chief: "Unknown, perhaps it’s the ones who fought us, regardless of which group, they threaten the Three Realms, we and The Three Pure Ones are enemies, once expelled, but the Three Realms are our home, I don’t wish for the Three Realms to fall."
Shao Siming is somewhat indignant, she snorts coldly: "If His Majesty colludes with extraterrestrial beings, that’s too much, our disputes are family matters, behind closed doors it’s no problem, but seeking outsiders? Does he want to destroy our home? His Majesty doesn’t even have Emperor Jun’s principles, truly mistaken."
After saying this, she suddenly lifts her neck, body taut, eyes losing focus.
...
Meanwhile, Eastern Emperor Tai Yi withdraws his tactic, revealing a meaningful smile.
The turmoil lasts for more than ten days before Emperor Jun appears.
Xihe and others quickly gather around him.
Looking at Emperor Jun, it’s clear to see he wears a slight smile, seemingly in a good mood.
This surprises everyone, is there some good news?
Emperor Jun smiles broadly, but his words leave everyone stunned.
"Everyone, perk up, prepare to welcome the angels."
Angels?
Heavenly messengers?
They’re all bewildered.
Nowadays, only envoys from the Heavenly Court can be called angels.
Could the previous rumors be true, His Majesty is indeed planning an alliance with the Heavenly Court.
And the so-called angels arriving now are the messengers of the alliance.
