441: Chapter 216: The Return of the Jade Emperor 441: Chapter 216: The Return of the Jade Emperor The crowd joked around for a while, and then everyone departed.
When the Bluebird woke up, she sighed and said mournfully,
“Great Saint, why bother so much?
I was originally a person of disloyalty, unrighteousness, and unfilial piety.”
Sun Wukong glanced at her and said, “Foolish loyalty at best.
It’s right not to be loyal.
The Queen Mother of the West is acting perversely, and she won’t end well.
It’s quite normal to be abandoned and betrayed, just like the Jade Emperor.”
“Yes, Sister Bluebird, don’t be sad anymore.
The big baddie is right.
The Queen Mother is too horrible, joining with the old woman to bully the big baddie.
The Queen Mother is an even bigger baddie than the big baddie.”
White Tiger said angrily with a straight face.
Sun Wukong felt somewhat depressed upon hearing this.
What did she mean by ‘an even bigger baddie than the big baddie’?
Couldn’t this girl speak properly?
Was he the big baddie?
Clearly, he was not.
Sun Wukong was the ancestor of all baddies.
Even the Bluebird was amused by White Tiger’s words, as she stroked her little head.
“Okay, settle down here with peace of mind.
Don’t think too much.
Lord Donghua once came to me, asking me to promise that if we won, we would spare the Queen Mother of the West’s life, and I agreed.
You don’t need to worry about the Queen Mother of the West either,” Sun Wukong consoled.
Speaking of this, he laughed and said, “Maybe one day, I’ll take down the Queen Mother of the West, suppress her, and then let her accompany you on Huaguo Mountain.”
Hearing Sun Wukong’s words, the Bluebird couldn’t help but give him a scornful glance.
He didn’t seem to take the Queen Mother of the West seriously at all.
To take down the Queen Mother of the West was not so simple.
However, his words did lift her spirits considerably, and a smile even appeared on her face.
Seeing that the Bluebird was happy, White Tiger finally cheered up and stopped worrying about her.
She began chasing the little monkeys again, sending them scampering in all directions, to the delight of the laughing White Tiger.
In the past few days, she had practically become the Demon Lord of Mayhem here, and the monkeys of Huaguo Mountain had been frequently harassed by White Tiger.
“Thank you, Great Saint,” the Bluebird said, sincerely thanking Sun Wukong on behalf of herself and the Queen Mother of the West.
Sun Wukong nonchalantly waved his hand and departed with panache.
In the depths of Kunlun Mountain, the Queen Mother of the West’s expression was grim.
She stared at the Senior Commander-in-Chief and asked coldly, “Is that all the courage you have?
With our means, if we fought to the end, we might not fail to annihilate Huaguo Mountain.
We can’t win?
You, the almighty Senior Commander-in-Chief, just blurted that out so easily.”
The Senior Commander-in-Chief shrugged, not at all angered.
He wore a smile as he said, “If we can’t win, we can’t win.
I’m not talking nonsense.
We have a fifty percent chance of fighting them to the death, but then what?
Even if we survive, we’d be utterly devastated, only to be annihilated by Great Emperor Ziwei?”
The Queen Mother of the West’s eyes flared with rage.
She knew that retreat was the best choice.
But she felt somewhat unwilling to accept it.
She had been accustomed to holding a lofty status from ancient times and had seldom encountered such setbacks.
A figure appeared, gradually transforming from ethereal to solid.
The Eastern King had arrived.
His eyes were like lightning, landing on both the Senior and Junior Commanders-in-Chief, causing them a slight change in expression.
The Senior Commander-in-Chief was somewhat surprised but not panicked.
He quickly regained his composure, fixing his gaze on the Eastern King with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
The Eastern King, Lord Donghua, possessed strength so profound that it was inscrutable.
Even the Eastern Emperor Tai Yi was just the same.
The Queen Mother of the West was slightly taken aback.
Suppressing her anger, she said, “Why have you come?”
Her tone carried a hint of grievance.
After all, the Queen Mother of the West was a woman who had suffered a loss in front of others.
Facing Lord Donghua, who had always taken care of her, a hint of a grievance naturally emerged.
Lord Donghua said indifferently, “I once told you that the prosperity of future generations and living beings is the natural order, the choice of Heaven and Earth, not to be defied.
Why don’t you listen?”
The Queen Mother of the West, who had been feeling somewhat wronged, expected Lord Donghua to have come to scold her and her expression turned cold at once.
“If you are not here to help me, then there’s no need to say anything.
You may as well leave,” the Queen Mother of the West said with a frosty face, extremely displeased.
She hadn’t expected Lord Donghua to still be admonishing her at this time.
“I do so for the overall situation of Heaven and Earth, for the entire Three Realms.
The flourishing of the generations is also our accomplishment.
If it weren’t for us driving away the Ancient Gods, where would their chance to thrive come from?
The weak Human Race, the common beasts, are nothing but Blood Food.
Their rise to become the protagonists of Heaven and Earth, they should be grateful to us.
What’s so difficult about sacrificing for us?” the Queen Mother of the West said, her visage ice-cold as she regarded all living beings as mere ants.
Lord Donghua’s expression was complex, and he sighed, “Do you know why I chose not to become the Great Heavenly Venerate back then?”
The Queen Mother of the West’s heart stirred as she looked at Lord Donghua.
After driving away the Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, with Lord Donghua’s strength, he was surely qualified to become the Great Heavenly Venerate.
And yet, he chose to seclude himself and disengage from worldly affairs, leaving the position unclaimed.
Everyone was puzzled because the position of the Great Heavenly Venerate was supreme, the commander of the Three Realms.
Besides The Three Pure Ones, no one could match his eminence.
Moreover, with the fortune of the Heavenly Court and the telekinetic power of the beings of the Three Realms, one could assist the Great Heavenly Venerate in improving their strength.
It was no secret that Great Emperor Ziwei’s cultivation had rapidly progressed, spurred on by the fortune of the Heavenly Court and the telekinetic power of the beings of the Three Realms.
Lord Donghua’s refusal to become the Great Heavenly Venerate truly baffled others, as it was beyond comprehension.
Now, was he about to reveal the reason for his refusal?
