“But something is not right.
If the Ancestral Dragon truly had such a purpose, the Great Saint would just need to do a little investigation to find out.
He can’t possibly believe that the Great Saint has one hundred percent trust in his words, can he?
And not seek verification.”
Nu Ba raised her doubts, feeling that something was amiss.
“The most likely scenario is that these two are indeed friends of Yinghuo, even if the Great Saint seeks verification, it would turn out to be true, and he would trust the Ancestral Dragon even more.
However, we cannot rule out the possibility that the Ancestral Dragon is using someone else to do his dirty work.”
Sun Wukong’s face lit up with admiration, and he said with a smile, “Your thoughts are the same as mine.
It seems most likely that this is the Ancestral Dragon’s intention, but what I, Old Sun, don’t understand is, what does he stand to gain from this?
Does the Ancestral Dragon still aspire to rule the Three Realms?
With his intelligence, he should see that no single race can currently dominate the Three Realms, not even the Dragon Clan.”
The Three Pure Ones would not allow it, and the Heavenly Court is not so easily supplanted.
Nu Ba shook her head, even Sun Wukong couldn’t figure it out, so naturally, neither could she.
“Anyway, Old Sun has never quite trusted the Ancestral Dragon.
Even if he appears to be friendly, I would have already been plotting to take him down if he wasn’t Ao Zhan’s father,” Sun Wukong said earnestly.
This was no joke; he was serious about it.
The Ancestral Dragon gave him a far more dangerous feeling than the Primordial Phoenix and others; Sun Wukong trusted his instincts.
But the ties between him and the Dragon Clan were too many, making it hard to make a move.
“For now, we can only play it by ear.
If the Ancestral Dragon truly harbors malicious intent, we can only wait for him to reveal his true colors before we make a move,” said Nu Ba with a wry smile.
Not to mention, just the relationship with Lady Dragon of Wealth alone was enough for Sun Wukong not to act so decisively.
“Let’s go.
Let’s not think about these things and spoil the mood,” Sun Wukong laughed.
“Yes.”
They walked side by side from Huaguo Mountain to the Southern Continent.
Along the way, they saw the magnificent mountains and rivers, with life thriving everywhere.
But Sun Wukong also saw other things.
The territories of the Human Race overlapped with those of the Ancient Gods and Devils, and there were many disputes.
As for full-scale wars between the two sides, they occurred in every continent.
Beneath the seemingly calm surface, the undercurrents were turbulent.
In the future, the living beings, the Primordial Gods and Demons, and possibly even the Ancient Gods.
Emperor Jun and the others’ return had become a certainty, as said by Lord Taishang.
Sun Wukong had been skeptical before, but now he had no choice but to believe the words of Lord Taishang.
The days in the Three Realms would only become more chaotic as time passed.
There’s also an invisible hand wanting to stir up the entire Three Realms.
The master of the Black Robe Supreme, what kind of existence is he really?
At this moment, Sun Wukong suddenly felt that back when the only opponents in the Heavenly Court were the Jade Emperor and the Court of Ancient Gods, it was such a blissful time.
Nothing like now, where just about any race’s power exceeds that of the Court of Ancient Gods back then.
It is lucky that the Heavenly Court has developed, otherwise facing this situation would have been nearly impossible.
When they reached a certain place, Nu Ba’s face suddenly flushed red.
“What’s wrong?” Sun Wukong asked, puzzled.
“Don’t you recognize this place?” Nu Ba asked.
Sun Wukong looked carefully and then a smile spread across his face.
This was where Nu Ba and Sun Wukong had undergone trials together.
They had been husband and wife for more than a hundred years, each waiting for the other to age and pass away first.
However, it became awkward when they realized that both were over a hundred and still not dead.
Then, they discovered each other’s true identities.
Their fate could be said to have started right here.
“Thinking about it now, fate truly is indescribable,” Sun Wukong said with a smile, naturally reaching out and taking Nu Ba’s hand without any avoidance.
Nu Ba struggled gently, but unable to free herself, she let her face redden and allowed Sun Wukong to hold her hand.
Hand in hand, they admired the magnificent landscapes of the four great continents.
The two did not hide their identities.
When deities saw this scene, they were all shocked to the core, their eyes nearly popping out.
However, after Sun Wukong glanced at them, the initially gossip-hungry deities, Immortals and Buddhas, immediately behaved themselves.
This monkey had become one of the most prominent figures in heaven and earth, truly someone they could not afford to offend.
