135: Chapter 133: Ancient Gods’ Tactics 135: Chapter 133: Ancient Gods’ Tactics This still counts Zhenyuan and his crew.

If it were up to the current strength of the Great Sage Sect, they wouldn’t stand a chance.

However, it would be impossible for Tathagata to completely wipe them out.

Just Sun Wukong alone is not easy to kill.

“I’ll keep an eye on Tathagata, if he makes any move, we’ll know right away,”

Ksitigarbha thought for a moment and said.

But Sun Wukong shook his head, his voice solemn, “No need, Tathagata has vast magical powers, what if he senses your surveillance?

It would be to your disadvantage, and do you think you can keep an eye on Tathagata?”

Keep an eye on Tathagata?

Ksitigarbha was unsure, just as Sun Wukong had said, he might even expose himself, and then he would be in danger.

Sun Wukong’s eyes sparkled with a fierce light, and he scoffed, “Tathagata is the schemer, we are the disruptors.

Sometimes disrupting is very simple, just pure destruction will do.

So, we don’t need any plan, nor do we need to watch Tathagata, just act to destroy whenever we sense something amiss.”

Hearing Sun Wukong speak like this, Ksitigarbha gave a thumbs up.

True to his reputation as the expert of the Heavenly Palace, Sun Wukong’s method, although simple, was very practical.

“Since that’s the case, let’s do as the Great Saint suggests, and now act as if we’ve sensed nothing,”

Ksitigarbha said with a smile.

He continued with his own affairs, and Sun Wukong also left.

He advised Ksitigarbha not to spy on Li Ling, yet he followed him himself,

Tathagata, disguised as a mortal, naturally did not sense Sun Wukong following him.

Even if he recovered all his mana, he might still not be able to detect Sun Wukong’s presence.

Sun Wukong, skilled in the Art of Transformation, had equally astonishing methods for concealing his aura.

When he saw Bi Lian and Li Ling acting intimately, Sun Wukong’s eyes nearly popped out.

Li Ling was not enlightening himself on the Great Dao of the mortal world; he had merely concealed his cultivation and transformed into a mortal.

But his memory was still intact, unsealed, he was in fact Tathagata himself, just in a different guise.

Tathagata being so intimate with a woman could definitely become a big scandal in the Three Realms.

Unfortunately, Sun Wukong wasn’t the gossipy type, nor a chatterbox, and he wouldn’t spread it around.

“Ling’er, you seem a bit off today, what’s really going on?”

Bi Lian asked with concern.

Li Ling pretended to be in distress and said feebly, “That Great Sage Temple is very suspicious, as if set by demon spirits.

After I worshipped that monkey, I felt very uncomfortable, as if the divine statue had swallowed all my yang energy.”

He did his best to slander the Great Sage Temple, never wanting to worship Sun Wukong again.

If this got out, his reputation would be completely ruined.

However, Bi Lian laughed when she heard it.

“Ling’er, I think you misunderstood, surely the Great Sage sensed the demon monk’s residual magic within you, and thus manifested to extract it.

That’s why you felt discomfort.

Rest for a few days, you’ll surely feel better.”

Li Ling was stunned, could it be interpreted this way?

As Bi Lian didn’t see Li Ling’s face, she became happier the more she spoke.

“Let’s do this, once you’re better, we’ll go back to the Great Sage Temple to fulfill our vow and thank the Great Sage for using his powers to expel the demon monk’s magic.

You must genuinely kowtow to the Great Sage several times.”

Sun Wukong, listening in the shadows, almost laughed out loud.

This woman was hilarious, by seeing Li Ling’s expression, one could tell how irritated he was now.

Thinking of Tathagata kneeling before him, Sun Wukong felt unbelievably good.

Li Ling almost spat blood, all his pretending had led to this result?

This woman’s thought process was just different, once she believed in something, no matter what others said, it was pointless.

He could only return to his room with a sullen face, thinking about how to make Bi Lian give up the idea of taking him to worship Sun Wukong again.

He really did not want to worship Sun Wukong anymore.

Sun Wukong smiled and left, he could not kill Tathagata yet.

Having the other party reveal themselves did not benefit Sun Wukong either.

After Sun Wukong left, a figure appeared.

Li Ling shuddered, he glanced at Bi Lian, who immediately fell into a deep sleep.

“Kunpeng, what are you here for?”

Li Ling asked, furrowing his brow.

Kunpeng’s mouth curled into a cold smile, his eyes showing some disdain.

“I am here to tell you that you have been exposed, Sun Wukong identified your identity right after he left your house.”

Kunpeng said indifferently.

“What?”

Li Ling changed color, Sun Wukong had actually been around all this time and he had not noticed.

This monkey’s strength, indeed, had become more profound.

“You’re just here to tell me this?

Kunpeng, last time I made a move for your sake, and as a result, that monkey attacked Mount Ling and even killed Ananda.

Don’t expect me to act against Sun Wukong for you again,” Li Ling said coldly.

Kunpeng’s expression was somewhat mocking as he disdainfully said, “You made a move last time for my sake?

Weren’t you trying to recruit Qiong Qi and the others?

Unfortunately, they didn’t take the bait and wouldn’t align with you.”

Li Ling’s face soured.

Last time he took action, ostensibly it was to help Kunpeng, but in reality, it was to recruit Qiong Qi and others.

However, the plan failed, Qiong Qi and the others did not take the bait, they thanked him verbally but showed no further interest, and later they simply left.

“Hmph.”

Li Ling scoffed coldly.

At this moment, Kunpeng changed the subject.

“Tathagata, haven’t you noticed there’s something wrong with the woman by your side?”

Li Ling turned around abruptly, his eyes sparkling as he stared at Kunpeng.

“What do you mean?”

Kunpeng smiled faintly, he reached out into the air and grabbed Bi Lian.

She was still unconscious, not having woken up.

Kunpeng smiled slightly, then performed a maneuver.

Li Ling intended to stop him, but when he saw the transformation of Bi Lian, he was suddenly stunned.

The person was not a person at all, but a Green Lotus.

“Such profound skills, creating living beings, these are the techniques of ancient gods, someone must have been watching you all this time, this Green Lotus is very similar to those in the Turquoise Pool.”

Kunpeng smiled faintly.

If talking about the years lived, he was much older than Tathagata.

There were many things Tathagata did not know, but he could see through them.

“Queen Mother of the West.”

Rage flickered in Li Ling’s eyes.

Kunpeng smiled faintly, speaking as he laughed, “You thought you had calculated everything, yet you didn’t realize you had already fallen into someone else’s plot.

Recently, your behavior has been influenced by this transformed Green Lotus woman.

Otherwise, how could you have paid allegiance to Sun Wukong, not wanting to expose your identity?

There are many ways to hide, but you’ve been controlled, involuntarily obeying everything this Bi Lian dictates.”

After saying this, Kunpeng paused for a moment, then sneeringly added, “Even if you succeed in the future, it will only be to benefit others, you will still be manipulated by others, so how can you control the Three Realms?”

Li Ling was silent for a while, and looking at Kunpeng, he said, “Regardless of your intentions, I still need to thank you.

It seems the ancient gods are much more difficult to deal with than I imagined.”

“If you understand, that’s good.

Our pursuits are different, in fact, we could completely unite.

You want to control the Three Realms, I seek Immortality and Indestructibility to completely transcend, our goals do not conflict, and we share common enemies, so I will help you, and I hope you won’t be too wary of me.”

Looking deeply at Kunpeng, Li Ling said, “Fine.”

They instantly reached a consensus.
