589: Chapter 238: Demon Realm Invasion_12 589: Chapter 238: Demon Realm Invasion_12 Sun Wukong understood a bit more.
The other party wasn’t targeting him at all but thought the entire Three Realms were trash.
“I was born in later generations and am unaware of all this.
You should hate those who sealed you in the North Heavenly Pass and those who knew and did nothing—not the beings born in the later generations.
You should, in fact, hate those Ancient Gods, the people from your own era.
What do we have to do with it?”
Sun Wukong said.
With hatred in his voice, Zhu Long said, “The one who schemed against me is no longer here.”
“Which one?”
Sun Wukong’s heart stirred, guessing that there might only be one person likely to have schemed against Zhu Long.
“Haotian God.”
Zhu Long said coldly.
Indeed, Sun Wukong’s eyes lit up, and he revealed a broad smile.
Zhu Long glared at him.
To him, Sun Wukong’s smile was utterly unbearable to look at.
Zhu Long felt that Sun Wukong was mocking him.
Dangerous killing intent flashed in his eyes as he considered taking action.
At that moment, Sun Wukong said, “Don’t misunderstand, I’m just happy for you.”
Zhu Long didn’t speak, but the killing intent in his eyes grew even more intense.
“Didn’t you know that three days ago, Haotian God did not die, he is still alive?”
Sun Wukong said.
Zhu Long, who had been filled with killing intent toward Sun Wukong, suddenly had red eyes when he heard Sun Wukong’s words and said hatefully, “Where is he?
I want to kill him.”
Seeing Zhu Long looking ready to tear someone to pieces, Sun Wukong became even more relaxed.
He said smilingly, “I don’t know where Haotian God’s true body is, but we’ve killed his avatar, and The Three Pure Ones personally confirmed his identity, and he admitted it himself.”
“Who?”
Seeing the urgent look on Zhu Long’s face, Sun Wukong was certain that Zhu Long was definitely not in the Three Realms three days ago.
Otherwise, he would have known about the huge commotion that occurred at that time.
Upon Zhu Long’s inquiry, Sun Wukong uttered a name.
“Jade Emperor.”
“Him?
How is that possible?”
Zhu Long’s expression changed dramatically.
Thinking of how he had once met the Jade Emperor and remained indifferent, even helping the Jade Emperor in the attempt to kill Sun Wukong, Zhu Long’s face darkened.
He really wanted to slap himself.
How could his pig-headed brain not have realized that the Jade Emperor was Haotian God?
“Are you deceiving me?”
Zhu Long stared at Sun Wukong and said.
Sun Wukong said indifferently, “This matter is known throughout the Three Realms.
Why don’t you ask around?
If you don’t believe me, you can ask any Immortal, and they will let you know if I am deceiving you.”
After taking a deep breath, Zhu Long had come to fully believe Sun Wukong’s words at this point.
His eyes blazed with fury; he had actually been deceived by the Jade Emperor.
The one he sought revenge against had been right in front of him, yet he had been oblivious, even aiding him in eliminating his rival.
It was truly ridiculous.
“Zhu Long, if you want revenge, you can actually cooperate with me.
You can inquire about this; Old Sun has never deceived those around him.”
Sun Wukong said.
Zhu Long glanced at Sun Wukong, wavering slightly.
“Right, did the Jade Emperor release your seal?”
Sun Wukong continued to ask.
“Of course not.”
Zhu Long said coldly.
Sun Wukong paused slightly before he immediately asked, “Who is that?”
“Why should I tell you?”
Zhu Long countered.
Sincerely, Sun Wukong said, “Zhu Long, the great god, you belong to the Living Beings of the Three Realms, and your contributions to the Three Realms are there for all to see.
I actually bear no ill will towards you.
On the contrary, I genuinely want to help you take revenge, so why do you harbor hostility towards me, Old Sun?”
Seeing the sincerity in Sun Wukong’s words, Zhu Long took a deep breath and said in a heavy tone, “It’s the Supreme Overlord of the Demon Realm, Tian Hao.”
Sun Wukong appeared thoughtful.
“Great God, have you ever considered that since the methods and seals guarding the North Heavenly Gate all come from the Haotian God, how could Tian Hao unravel them?
Do you think he might have another identity?”
Sun Wukong’s eyes gleamed with insight.
“Just now at the exit of the Demon Realm, Lord Taishang himself took action, aiming to capture Tian Hao.
And if you reverse the two characters in Tian Hao…”
“Haotian.”
Zhu Long clenched his teeth.
Is this merely a coincidence?
Obviously not.
Zhu Long, who was nearly driven mad and tormented by solitude, was in a semi-insane state.
Therefore, all along, he never settled his mind to think about these questions.
Now that Sun Wukong brought them up, Zhu Long too spotted the dubious points.
He was certain, this Tian Hao was indeed the Haotian God.
“I want to kill him.”
Zhu Long clenched his teeth with rage, angry to the extreme from being used again and again by the Haotian God.
At that moment, his heart was set on taking revenge on the Haotian God, to avenge his own grudges.
When Sun Wukong stopped him, Zhu Long became annoyed, staring at Sun Wukong, he coldly said, “I’ve already lost the desire to trouble you, so why are you stopping me?”
“To prevent you from going on a suicide mission.”
Zhu Long said coldly.
Death?
How could he be afraid?
If he couldn’t take his revenge, his life was as good as death.
“But don’t you think your fearless death would be utterly pointless?
Even if you found Tian Hao, could you kill him?”
Sun Wukong chuckled coldly.
Zhu Long remained silent; naturally, he couldn’t kill Tian Hao.
Even in his current half-insane and almost frenzied state, he understood this fact.
His power matched that of the Earth Demon God, perhaps slightly stronger, putting him on a level close to that of the Heavenly Demon Gods.
But compared to the Haotian God, the difference was not slight.
If it came to a direct confrontation, there was no chance of victory.
After a while, Zhu Long finally spoke, “Even if I can’t kill Haotian, I still want to bite off a piece of his flesh, to let him know that I’m not to be trifled with.”
His teeth were clenched, his rage extreme.
Recalling his own experiences, Zhu Long found it hard to calm down.
Sun Wukong smiled and said lightly, “You really don’t need to go so far.”
Before Zhu Long could speak, Sun Wukong continued, “I am an enemy of Haotian, just like you.
I have said before, we can collaborate and confront Haotian together.”
After looking at Sun Wukong, Zhu Long said solemnly, “I have attacked you before.”
“Those are trifles; the most important thing is you’ve done no evil,”
Sun Wukong laughed.
His reason for wanting to join forces with Zhu Long was just that.
