157: Chapter 153 Mount Shu 157: Chapter 153 Mount Shu Lu Dongbin and the others simply couldn’t bear to watch and hurriedly left.

A cold sweat broke out on his forehead, thankful that he only enjoyed provoking female immortals.

If he were like the Great Saint, having provoked two female immortals, he truly felt the desire to die.

“So fierce, I think I better not set my sights on the Great Saint, unable to compete with Princess Ba and Lady Dragon of Wealth,” he exclaimed.

Fan Yao sighed.

He Xiangu looked at her oddly, had this woman also taken a liking to the Great Saint?

Sensing her doubt, Fan Yao said with full conviction, “Who wouldn’t like a great hero like the Great Saint?”

He Xiangu was speechless.

It seemed to make sense when put that way.

Whether in the cultivation world or in the mundane, powerful men are always adored by women.

As for among immortals, the admiration was not limited to humans alone.

Sun Wukong arrived in the Southern Continent and with a simple inquiry, he learned where the Roc Demon King was recruiting troops.

Mount Shu, a gathering place for sword immortals.

At the same time, it was also a confluence for powerful demons and monsters.

Legends of sword immortals had always circulated here, and songs of their demon-slaying feats were eternally praised.

But at this moment, the sword immortals of Mount Shu were trembling with trepidation.

Not far from them, the Roc Demon King looked down upon them with disdain.

He had taken a liking to this place and wanted to make it his stronghold.

Since the master had decided to contend for supremacy, a good location was naturally needed, and Mount Shu in the Southern Continent definitely counted as a prime blessed land.

Of course, there was better, such as Zhongnan Mountain.

But who would dare to occupy the ancestral home of Daoism?

Even if the Kunpeng dared to do such a thing, he would be immediately eradicated by the leading powers of the Daoist Sect.

“I give you a choice, submit or die.

You have but ten breaths to decide, I await your answer,” the Roc Demon King said indifferently.

He relished the sight of the contorted faces of the Mount Shu residents, that superior feeling of seeming to control the fates of all beings in the world, was something he found somewhat intoxicating.

Of course, this was not an illusion.

Compared to the sword immortals of Mount Shu, he certainly had the capital to feel so.

Under the Roc Demon King’s feet, a man with long white eyebrows was being stepped on, his face displaying both humiliation and fury.

Elder Long Eyebrow, the progenitor of Mount Shu.

His strength was formidable, he had even reached the pinnacle of celestial immortals.

But in front of a Demon Clan Great Saint like the Roc Demon King who dominated the Three Realms, he did not last three moves before being trampled underfoot.

And his disciples were being threatened by the Roc Demon King, forced to kneel on the ground.

Elder Long Eyebrow longed to loudly scold his disciples; how could noble sword immortals kneel before demons and monsters?

But he could not utter a single word, as the Roc Demon King had sealed all his abilities to act.

Many disciples of Mount Shu were at a loss, but there were also those with faces full of rage, willing to battle to the death with the Roc Demon King.

The sword immortals were of an unyielding character, preferring to shatter completely rather than submit as mere broken tiles.

With Elder Long Eyebrow being humiliated under the opponent’s foot, if they chose to submit, they would have no face to live in the world.

Time ticked away, and the Roc Demon King grew impatient.

Frowning, he said coldly, “Are you unwilling to submit?

Since you wish for death so earnestly, I shall grant it to you.

Today, Mount Shu shall be annihilated.”

As his words fell, a powerful aura erupted from him.

The Roc Demon King’s killing intent arose.

If they would not submit, then these people could go to their deaths.

The Roc Demon King exerted pressure with his foot, and Elder Long Eyebrow’s face turned purple, as he spurted blood from his mouth, his expression twisted in extreme agony.

“Progenitor.”

“Release our progenitor, if you dare, come at me instead.”

“”

“No, please, release our ancestor, if you must kill, kill me instead.”

The disciples of Mount Shu shouted, their faces filled with urgency.

They knew that their adversary harbored a killing intent and that if they did not submit, they were bound to die.

The disciples of Mount Shu were mostly prepared to die.

However, seeing their ancestor injured like this, they found it unbearable.

“Tsk, tsk.”

It was at this moment that a somewhat mocking voice rang out.

The Roc Demon King’s heart jolted, and he looked towards the direction the sound had come from.

The Roc Demon King almost felt the urge to turn and run.

“Sun Wukong.”

He gritted his teeth and called out the name of the newcomer.

The swordsmen of Mount Shu were momentarily stunned, then all of them showed expressions of wild joy.

The Great Sage Equalling Heaven, Sun Wukong—the legend himself, had actually arrived.

Immediately, the disciples of Mount Shu knelt down.

Excited, they called out, “Disciples of Mount Shu pay respect to the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, to the Demon-Subduer of the Nine Heavens Great Sage.

We plead for the Great Sage to demonstrate his might and subdue the demon and eliminate the devil!”

The Roc Demon King’s face turned the color of iron.

If Sun Wukong were not present, he would have already killed all these disciples of Mount Shu.

But with Sun Wukong here, he did not dare to act rashly.

The Roc Demon King already knew that he was no match for Sun Wukong, not by a long shot.

Sun Wukong smiled faintly and said, “You ask me to subdue demons and eliminate devils, yet you do not realize that the demon you speak of is none other than my sworn brother, the Roc Demon King.

According to our ranks, I should be calling him ‘Third Brother’.”

The hearts of the people of Mount Shu suddenly chilled.

They had actually forgotten this point—Sun Wukong and the Roc Demon King were sworn brothers.

How could he possibly assert his might to subdue his own sworn brother?

The disciples of Mount Shu were suddenly like mourners over a corpse, despairing to the utmost degree in their hearts.

Seeing their expressions, Sun Wukong chuckled lightly and said, “Of course, this sworn brother of mine has always wanted to kill me, and I too have always wanted to kill him.

So, even if you didn’t ask, I would still make my move.”

The disciples of Mount Shu suddenly saw a ray of light before their eyes.

They were overjoyed, all of them becoming excited.

With the Great Saint’s words, they felt reassured.

The Roc Demon King sneered coldly, and he angrily said, “Sun Wukong, why do you always oppose me?”

Sun Wukong looked surprised, and with a somewhat incredulous smile, he said, “Brother, you speak as if you have no conscience.

Isn’t it you who has always opposed me?

Yet now you say I always oppose you.

Weren’t you the one who provoked me first?”

Put on the spot by Sun Wukong’s words, the Roc Demon King found himself at a loss for words.

Sun Wukong was right; it was indeed he who had provoked Sun Wukong first.

Seeing Sun Wukong approaching, the Roc Demon King said coldly, “Don’t come any closer.

If you take another step, I will kill him.”

He pointed at Elder Long Eyebrow lying beneath his feet, using the life of Elder Long Eyebrow to threaten Sun Wukong.

The disciples of Mount Shu all wore worried expressions.

But Sun Wukong simply laughed, saying indifferently, “You kill him, what does that have to do with me?

I don’t even know him.”

What?

The Roc Demon King was somewhat dumbfounded.

But he quickly realized that Sun Wukong indeed did not know Elder Long Eyebrow.

Threatening him with the life of a person Sun Wukong did not know was laughable, wasn’t it?

He really thought that Sun Wukong was the kind of Bodhisattva who couldn’t stand to see anyone hurt.

Sun Wukong, initially, was a demon who ate humans.

“You should see what, or rather who, is beneath your feet.”

Just then, Sun Wukong said with a smile.
