570: Chapter 237 Great Yi Reappears_3 570: Chapter 237 Great Yi Reappears_3 Sun Wukong sneered, “It’s not yet certain whose deer this is; you’re already at a disadvantage and still dare to speak so arrogantly—it’s truly ignorant of life or death.”
“The first person I will kill is you.”
The Jade Emperor’s gaze toward Sun Wukong was filled with fierce hatred.
He naturally wouldn’t forget that Sun Wukong, his disciple, had sided with others against him.
There was also Yang Jian, that unfilial scoundrel, whom he wanted dead just the same.
Sun Wukong scoffed and responded with a staff strike toward the Jade Emperor.
Harsh words were easy to say, but few could actually succeed.
They had battled for several hours, and the several Great Heavenly Venerates on the border were all very anxious.
At that moment, the eight Great Heavenly Venerates wanted to come to the rescue, but they were closely monitored by Ziwei’s side and simply couldn’t return.
Any action they dared take, the opposition would strike with thunderous force.
At this time, they were of no help to the Jade Emperor.
However, seeing the Jade Emperor withstand Sun Wukong’s attacks and even gradually turning the tide, smiles appeared on the faces of the eight Great Heavenly Venerates.
With the Jade Emperor’s Undying Body, continuing this battle would certainly wear down Sun Wukong and the others.
The eight Great Heavenly Venerates weren’t worried at all.
Chi Di’s expression grew serious as he couldn’t help saying, “Something is wrong here—if this keeps up, it will definitely be Wukong and the others who will suffer, and they will ultimately be defeated.”
The Yellow Emperor nodded and said, “Indeed, I didn’t expect the Jade Emperor to be so powerful.
I hope Tathagata Buddha has anticipated this; otherwise, this mission will fail.
Not only will we fail to remove the Jade Emperor from his pedestal, but it will also bolster his prestige through this battle.”
“Sun Wukong and the others can only win; they absolutely cannot afford to lose, otherwise the future actions of the Ziwei Heavenly Court will likely be compromised.”
The Green Emperor also spoke, his eyes shimmering with a sharp light.
At this moment, it was they who wanted to go to the aid.
However, the Heavenly Court’s side blocked them, not giving them a chance.
The mentality on both sides had changed.
“This isn’t good, it looks like we can’t defeat this old fossil; we should’ve had Great Emperor Ziwei come as well,”
Sun Wukong said, growing slightly anxious.
So much preparation and planning had gone into this action.
Even Yang Jian’s Divine Temple had been destroyed countless times, its reputation utterly ruined.
If they still couldn’t defeat the Jade Emperor, all their efforts would have been in vain.
Most importantly, with the momentum of this battle victory, the Jade Emperor could recruit even more powerful allies.
This was definitely not what they wanted to see.
Thinking of this, Sun Wukong and the others exchanged a glance, seeing the seriousness in each other’s eyes.
This battle permitted only victory and demanded it.
“If only Great Emperor Ziwei were here,”
Yang Jian said while fighting, transmitting his voice.
Just then, Tathagata Buddha smiled slightly and said, “Who told you that Great Emperor Ziwei isn’t here?”
“What?”
Both were startled, then all joy appeared on their faces.
Great Emperor Ziwei had actually come, which was unexpected to them.
The Jade Emperor also noticed their smiles but didn’t understand why they were smiling.
A bad premonition suddenly surged in his heart; he had a feeling that he was still being outplayed.
At that moment, an ominous premonition arrived.
A beam of Ziwei crossed the skies, filled with imperial majesty, illuminating the heavens and landing on the Jade Emperor.
“Pfft.”
The Jade Emperor was directly struck through, half of his body blasted open.
He immediately recovered, and looking in one direction, he roared, “Ziwei, you are shameless.”
What?
Great Emperor Ziwei had also arrived.
The immortals of Ling Xiao Palace, originally harboring a glimmer of hope, all felt a shock at that moment, fearing the worst.
Sun Wukong and the others had fought the Jade Emperor to a draw; the Jade Emperor could rely on his powerful background and Immortal Body to wear them down.
But now that Great Emperor Ziwei had also arrived, drawing on the telekinetic power of living beings and the fortune of the Heavenly Court, Great Emperor Ziwei’s strength had advanced rapidly.
It’s not certain to say, but his power was at least now not inferior to the Tathagata Buddha.
Even in his prime, the Jade Emperor, facing such forces, couldn’t declare a certain victory, much less after being gravely injured.
Great Emperor Ziwei appeared, dressed in imperial robes; just as he appeared, a purple energy surged from the east, exuding an aura of incomparable nobility.
At this moment, his face carried a composed smile, looking down at the Jade Emperor and said with a light smile, “Jade Emperor, you are indeed pitiable.
Look at yourself now; where is the demeanor of the Supreme of the Three Realms?
You look more like a begging dog.
If only you had known this earlier, you wouldn’t be in such a position.
Anyone standing against the living beings or divine, no matter if they were once the Supreme of the Three Realms, will not end well.”
With Great Emperor Ziwei’s words, the immortals shifted their gaze to the Jade Emperor.
They couldn’t help but slightly twitch the corners of their mouths.
Compared to Great Emperor Ziwei, the current state of the Jade Emperor was indeed much more wretched.
His crown was shattered, his imperial robe was torn to extremes, covered in blood.
His hair disheveled, his face smeared with blood, he was gasping for breath heavily.
In stark contrast to the clean and composed Great Emperor Ziwei.
Even knowing the causes and consequences, those divine beings who had sided with the Jade Emperor also felt that they had aligned with something pitiful.
Such a person hardly resembled the Supreme of the Three Realms in the slightest.
They also pondered the words of Great Emperor Ziwei.
Anyone opposing the common living beings will not end well.
Seeing the pitiable state of the Jade Emperor now, they felt that Great Emperor Ziwei was absolutely right.
Otherwise, the Jade Emperor, once the mighty Supreme of the Three Realms and invincible in strength, how could he have fallen to such a state?
It truly shouldn’t have happened.
