860: Chapter 287: Defeat Jie_2 860: Chapter 287: Defeat Jie_2 And Yinghuo was one of them.
With such a father, he still felt very proud of himself.
“Hehe, idiot.”
The Golden God didn’t bother to speak with such an idiot.
Her gaze fell on the Primordial Empress, and she said indifferently, “Anyway, I’ve said what needed to be said, and you’ve agreed that you won’t let Jie stir up trouble.
If you can’t control him and your precious son dies, don’t blame anyone else.
One more thing, I don’t mind telling you that the Great Saint already planned to gather his forces to wipe you and your son out when he learned your son was going to challenge him.”
“Afraid of him?”
Jie sneered, full of disdain.
He hadn’t taken Sun Wukong seriously from the start.
Though he wasn’t a match for Suiren just now, he believed in his mother’s strength.
Together, mother and son could sweep across the lands.
The mere Heavenly Court was nothing to be concerned about.
“Silence.”
The Primordial Empress reprimanded with a stern voice.
Instantly, Jie shut his mouth.
A surge of anger welled up in his heart, feeling that his mother was acting excessively weak today.
In the Primordial era, who had she ever feared?
Unexpectedly, the once imposing Primordial Empress, having lived since the Primordial era, seemed to have changed completely now.
“Farewell.”
Suiren and the Golden God took their leave.
Jie was feeling frustrated, clenching his teeth.
No matter how his mother felt about his father, it was only natural for him, as Yinghuo’s son, to seek revenge for his father.
This hatred was something he was definitely going to resolve.
The Primordial Empress seemed to see through his thoughts, glanced at her son, and said calmly, “If you dare to make a move, I’ll cripple your cultivation myself, to prevent you from being killed by others.”
Jie was full of disbelief.
His own mother actually said such words to him.
With a cold snort, Jie turned and walked into the secret realm.
Watching Jie’s departing figure, the Primordial Empress sighed inwardly.
A flash of worry passed through her eyes.
She understood her son too well.
She had no confidence that Jie would listen to her.
The world of today was very different from the Primordial era; many of Jie’s views had yet to change, so he didn’t understand her.
He needed to spend more time in this era to understand her difficulties.
For now, he completely ignored her words.
“Forget it, I can only keep an eye on him.
I hope nothing unexpected happens.
Even if he provokes Sun Wukong, if he dares to kill my son, I will not spare him.”
The Primordial Empress said coldly.
As the Supreme of the Primordial, she still possessed that domineering attitude.
At worst, she would fight to the death; she had no qualms.
If anything happened to Jie, she would have no further attachments.
“Golden God, what do you think?”
As Suiren and the Golden God left, he asked her suddenly midway.
The Golden God frowned slightly, saying, “Hard to say, but they give me a very unstable feeling.
I think the chance of Jie making a move is over eighty percent.”
“Therefore, we need to inform the Great Saint to prepare early.
Actually, we didn’t need to come this time; instead, we caused trouble for the Great Saint.
If the Great Saint takes action now, it would seem he’s not abiding by the rules.”
Suiren sighed.
Only then did they realize their mistake.
When facing an enemy, they should have struck immediately.
By doing so, they gave the Primordial Empress a chance to find an escape route, but it was quite unfavorable for Sun Wukong.
Because Sun Wukong had requested that the Primordial Empress and her camp not take action, but then made a move himself.
If that happened, Sun Wukong’s reputation would be ruined.
But if Sun Wukong chose not to act, seeing the Empress and Jie’s demeanor, they couldn’t guarantee that Jie wouldn’t make a move.
As an Empress, she might have a deterrent effect on others, but against her own offspring, she was nothing short of a doting mother.
Expecting a doting mother to restrain her son, unless the son was naturally gentle and considerate of others, was impossible.
Recalling Jie’s earlier behavior, they immediately dismissed the thought.
Jie was wild and unrestrained, showing no regard for others.
It was evident what kind of person Jie was.
“Let’s go find the Great Saint and tell him everything.
If necessary, we should also take action to make amends.
The Great Saint has done much for the Human Race; we should repay him in some way.”
Suiren said with a smile.
He was also very free-spirited, having lived this long, he didn’t care much about reputation anymore.
When it didn’t involve absolute interests, they still considered reputation.
But when it did, all else was an illusion.
Reputation was for the victors, not the defeated.
Returning to Huaguo Mountain, they found Sun Wukong.
Upon hearing their words, Sun Wukong’s eyes narrowed slightly.
He too realized that by seeking out the Empress, they made it harder for him to act first.
Unless Jie attacked him first, then he would be passive instead of proactive.
Seeing the apologetic looks on their faces, Sun Wukong smiled and comforted, “No need for you two to blame yourselves.
Initially, we didn’t think of this.
You did it for Old Sun’s sake, not wanting me to make more enemies.
They were just ungrateful.”
“If you need us to take action, just inform us.
We will come immediately.”
