Journey to the West: Great Saint Equal to Heaven
Chapter 1115 - 344: The Return of the Nine Ruins (Part 2)
CHAPTER 1115: CHAPTER 344: THE RETURN OF THE NINE RUINS (PART 2)
"And what about The Three Pure Ones, what are you worried about?"
Sun Wukong also reminded.
At this moment, Zixia realized she was impulsive, and she stuck out her tongue.
After arriving at Kunlun, the Queen Mother of the West had already been waiting there.
When she saw Zixia, a glint flashed in her eyes.
A somewhat resentful gaze fell on Sun Wukong, the Queen Mother of the West said softly: "Great Saint, where did you deceive such a beautiful companion this time?"
Sun Wukong could clearly smell a sourness.
He smiled and said: "Zixia is my friend, she came looking for me for some matters, and coincidentally heard about the trouble here, so we came together to help."
"Really?"
The Queen Mother of the West asked with a half-smile.
She did not delve deeper.
She merely nodded slightly at Zixia, then frowned and said: "I have no choice, I alone cannot stop the Kunlun Ruins, so I invited the Eastern King and you, now with the presence of Daoist Zixia, it couldn’t be better."
Altogether four Supremes, along with an Eastern King, a match for the Heavenly Emperor, indeed.
Even if they couldn’t stop Kunlun Ruins, it wouldn’t be so easy for those inside to come out.
If things get too noisy, The Three Pure Ones won’t sit idly by.
"Boom."
Someone struck the gate, and Sun Wukong and the others immediately sensed it.
"So strong."
The Eastern King’s expression changed slightly.
The Queen Mother of the West’s expression also changed, and she led the others rushing forward.
Before the portal, Ying Zhao and two others were here, slaughtering some creatures that were getting through.
But now they were getting nervous.
Because from deep within the portal, something was clearly different.
A peerless powerhouse was making a breakthrough, it was a Supreme, the oppressive aura alone made them tremble, their bodies shook involuntarily, wanting to kneel.
They were sure, the opponent must be a great Supreme, their strength unfathomably strong, otherwise, it wouldn’t feel like this.
Right then, Sun Wukong and the others arrived.
Evidently, they also sensed that something was amiss.
"There’s a big one behind the gate."
The Eastern King said with a smile.
He wasn’t nervous at all, with his strength, even facing Emperor Jun head-on, he wouldn’t be easily defeated; their abilities were comparable.
Thus, even knowing there was a big one behind, he wasn’t worried at all, instead very interested.
Sun Wukong and the Queen Mother of the West felt their hearts sink.
If even the Eastern King said there was a big one, then it must be a truly immense one.
They exchanged glances and saw the solemnity in each other’s eyes.
What to do?
Last time, not so many powerful beings appeared, just some small fry.
Even if they went in, there were just Sub-Paramounts.
But now, it was clearly different, with a Supreme attacking the gate, wanting to break out.
However, the Three Realms’ Laws were clearly rejecting and suppressing them.
They looked at the Eastern King, wanting him to make the decision.
"Let’s go in and take a look."
The Eastern King said with a smile.
Sun Wukong and the Queen Mother of the West nodded, with the Eastern King along, they weren’t worried at all.
The three of them instructed Ying Zhao and others to guard the portal, then entered together.
Immediately after entering the portal, a gigantic body charged at them.
Feeling the aura on that body, Sun Wukong and the others immediately realized it was a Supreme, and a very powerful Supreme at that.
They didn’t dare to be negligent and attacked together.
The massive body didn’t expect anyone to enter, as it charged over, it was struck by three horrifying attacks, sending it flying.
Dazzling blood blossomed, the opponent fell far away, taking a long time to get up.
This was the result of the three holding back, otherwise, the opponent would have been heavily wounded, possibly losing half their life.
Their combined power wasn’t to be trifled with.
The Eastern King alone could match the Heavenly Emperor.
The huge figure shrunk rapidly, transforming to normal human size before charging over.
Behind him followed a group of people, all of them Great Heavenly Venerates, over a dozen in total.
They stared fearfully at Sun Wukong and the others, having a very clear understanding of their power.
Even their mighty leader couldn’t withstand a combined attack, was sent flying, nearly seriously injured; they were even less a match for these three in front.
The Eastern King smiled and even greeted them.
"Hello there."
The Eastern King said with a smile.
The opponent’s Supreme, wearing black armor, held a black long halberd in his hand, looking at the Eastern King with eyes full of fear.
"Are you a Supreme of the Three Realms? Why did you attack this general for no reason?"
The Supreme spoke, his figure robust, strength not weak, usually quite domineering, yet now dared not be too reckless, only daring to ask a question.
The Eastern King glanced at him and smiled: "This is a question I too would like to ask you, why are you forcibly entering the Three Realms?"
Hearing the Eastern King’s words, the opponent frowned and said: "This was something the Three Pure Ones promised us, we helped them, and when the Nine Wastes decayed, we could enter the Three Realms to live. Have you all forgotten?"
Sun Wukong and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.
Promised by The Three Pure Ones?
They were quite surprised.
No matter what, they hadn’t expected this matter to be promised by The Three Pure Ones.
"Do you believe what he said?"
Sun Wukong sent a voice transmission to ask.
The Eastern King thought for a moment and said: "I don’t know about this, but I think it might be true, after all, if he’s lying, we just need to ask The Three Pure Ones to find out."
That made sense.
However, Sun Wukong was not one to easily back down.
"If The Three Pure Ones promised, go find them. The current Three Realms are ruled by the Heavenly Court, not The Three Pure Ones."
He showed no politeness, unwilling to allow them into the Three Realms at all.
Not to mention that their exit point was locked at the Kunlun Ruins, going out would surely threaten the Queen Mother of the West.
With so many powerful beings from the Nine Wastes, Sun Wukong would not agree to their entry into the Three Realms.
The revival of the Primordial era’s Supremes, and the return of Emperor Jun and Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, were already troublesome enough.
Adding more strong beings from the Nine Wastes would be an unimaginable headache.
"Aren’t you willing to keep your promise? So many powerful beings died helping The Three Pure Ones in the past, and this is how you treat us now? No wonder the Great Master said, the living beings of the Three Realms can’t be relied upon, indeed."
The Eastern King felt a bit awkward, but Sun Wukong didn’t care in the slightest.
In fact, Sun Wukong was somewhat angry.
"Whoever promised you, go find them, the Heavenly Court promised you nothing."
As Sun Wukong spoke impolitely,
the Supreme immediately grew furious, pointing his long halberd at Sun Wukong and shouted: "Nonsense, what gall, do you dare to fight me? If you lose, don’t stop us from entering the Three Realms."
"And what if you lose?"
Sun Wukong countered.
The Supreme laughed haughtily, full of disdain.
In his view, Sun Wukong was merely a Sub-Paramount.
No matter how extraordinary, defeating a recently advanced Supreme was a feat, how could he compare to himself?
But Sun Wukong kept staring at him, waiting for an answer.
"If I lose, I’ll leave immediately."
The Supreme said.
Sun Wukong rolled his eyes.
The other spouted nonsense, unable to defeat him, what else could he do but leave?
Listening to the Supreme, it seemed as if he promised something, yet actually said nothing.
However, Sun Wukong didn’t bother to argue with him.
He smiled faintly and said: "Move then, I plan to go back after this."
That Supreme immediately looked furious; how dare a mere Great Heavenly Venerate show such disdain?
He stared coldly at Sun Wukong and said: "The living beings of the Three Realms are indeed arrogant, thinking you could kill me is utterly laughable."
Holding his long halberd pointed at Sun Wukong, the Supreme’s mana surged.
"Remember, the one who will defeat you is Meng Tianhuo."
Sun Wukong smiled faintly and said: "Remember too, the one who will trample you underfoot is Sun Wukong."
Meng Tianhuo’s face turned dark, and he said nothing further but acted directly.
Powerful mana surged, infused into his long halberd, as he thrust it at Sun Wukong.
