Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong laughed.
This meant that Bull Demon King had, to a certain extent, forgotten the past.
He smiled and said, “Since I’m here, I naturally have a way.”
As he said this, his expression became serious, he said, “Bull, our Western Church now has roughly three groups of people. The first group is the original disciples of the Western Church. The second group is the people who voluntarily defected to the Western Church before and after the Battle of Ascension. The third group is people like us who were forced to surrender!”
In the Sun Wukong’s eyes, he was also forced to surrender.
He had been suppressed at the foot of Mount Numinous for 500 years, waiting for the scriptures to come. If this was not forced surrender, then what was it?
“Among these three groups of people, the people who voluntarily defected from the Western Church have the strongest cultivation and the highest status. As for us, we have the smallest influence and the weakest right to speak. When someone lights a lamp and asks you to go to war, you have to go, right?”
Bull Demon King could not refute this.
He said, “That’s right.”
Sun Wukong continued, “That’s why we don’t need to talk about being loyal to the Western Church. Now that the great calamity has begun, if you and I, quasi-saints, want to become saints, we have to kill the other quasi-saints or be killed by others. Lu Ping is a chess piece of a saint, or even a chess piece of the Dao ancestor. If you go, you must not become enemies with him. However, if you don’t become enemies with him, you will be disobeying Shao Deng. The Western Church will definitely punish you. At this time, Shao Deng might directly kill you and take away the Primal Purple Qi in your body!”
With that said, Sun Wukong’s eyes were filled with ferocity. “Therefore, Bull, there is only one way for you to go. That is to go all out and betray the Western Church!”
Bull Demon King’s expression was gloomy as he sat on a chair and clenched his fists tightly.
“No! Red Boy is still at Cihang! If I betray him, he will definitely suffer!”
Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan only had so few descendants left.
How could he be willing to see Red Boy die because of him?
Sun Wukong said with a smile, “This matter is simple. As long as we find an opportunity to kill the Elephant-Riding Arhat, won’t it be simple?”
Sun Wukong was born as a demon, while Bull Demon King was also born as a demon.
Both of them were decisive people when it came to killing. Now, they heard Sun Wukong’s suggestion, Bull Demon King constantly pinched his fingers. Clearly, he was in deep thought.
It was not without risk to kill the Elephant-Riding Arhat.
There was a gap between quasi-saints and Diamond Immortals, but it was not a completely crushing situation.
Quasi-saints were actually an extension of Diamond Immortals.
The Elephant-Riding Arhat was considered a fairly strong existence among Diamond Immortals, and Bull Demon King was one of the quasi-saints, so his cultivation base was relatively weaker.
In this comparison, although he had the upper hand, he did not have the confidence to keep his opponent alive!
Sun Wukong saw through his concerns and said with a smile, “Bull, you are not going alone this time. The Seven Phoenixes sect can also help you!”
Bull Demon King’s eyes lit up. Sun Wukong took out a cell phone and handed it to Bull Demon King and said with a smile, “This is the cell phone I used when I was on Fengming Planet. If you are on Fengming Planet, you can use the excuse of gathering information to contact Lu Ping privately. Since he was able to kill the Alms Bowl Arhat, his power isn’t weak. He must have some tricks up his sleeve. If you join forces with him and leave the Elephant-Riding Arhat behind, it should be a piece of cake. As for me, I will think of a way to contact Red Boy so that he can make preparations. When the time comes, he can also find a chance to escape. This way, we can fight our way out!”
Bull Demon King looked at the cell phone in front of him.
After a long while, he said, “Thank you!”
He kept the cell phone.
But at this moment, he had not made up his mind.
“Why do you want to help me?”
Sun Wukong shook his head slightly and said, “You and I are brothers to begin with. There was some animosity before, so I can’t just watch you throw your life away.”
Bull Demon King looked at him for a long while before asking, “Then what are your plans?”
Sun Wukong smiled and said, “Currently, the Western Church is in a war with the Heavenly Court. If the Western Church wins, they will naturally continue to be my battle-winning Buddha. But if the Western Church’s momentum isn’t good, then I might follow my big brother and leave. But from the looks of it, with the Western Church as a backer, it might not be a bad thing if there’s a chance to become a saint!”
This was Sun Wukong’s plan.
Bull Demon King was also hesitating.
If he really killed the Elephant-Riding Arhat, then the Western Church would win and control the three realms. Then, his end would not be too good.
But then again, if he did not make a move now, he might die immediately. The choice was actually very simple.
On the other side, Lu Ping and Tongtian were also talking about the great calamity of Heaven and earth.
Tongtian also told Lu Ping that he had given Yun Xiao and the rest the four Immortal Slaying swords. After all, it was not a secret.
After listening to them, Lu Ping asked curiously, “Did they kill Shao Deng?”
“No. The two of them were also gifted magic treasures. Therefore, the current situation is not so optimistic!” Tongtian shook his head and said.
“That’s a pity!”Lu Ping sighed. “What about the northwest star domain?”
Tongtian sneered. “The Chanism people are there. The Heavenly Venerate of Primordial Beginning should have sent people there. However, there are no experts who have been injured or killed. I guess that guy’s people are hiding somewhere!”
The death of a quasi-saint was a major matter for the world.
Therefore, it couldn’t be hidden from others.
At the northwest star domain, the Jade Emperor’s main reinforcements were all here. After all, Yang Jian and the others were too poor.
Although their cultivation bases were high and their combat strength wasn’t weak, they couldn’t be compared to anyone!
Yang Jian was still not enough to fight someone who was once at the level of the Twelve Golden Immortals!
At this moment, Yang Jian was frantically fleeing!
And behind him was one of the once twelve Golden Immortals, Wen Shu!
“Don’t run. Quickly let me send you on your way!”
Wen Shu sat on the Azure Lion Spirit in the starry sky and chased after Yang Jian. The two of them, one at the front and one at the back, were extremely fast!
But the distance between them was closing bit by bit. Although the speed was very slow, as long as it was long enough, Yang Jian would be caught by him sooner or later. Bodhisattva Wen Shu was very happy!
He was finally going to kill a quasi-saint.
Yang Jian suddenly flew toward a planet!
“Haha! Kid, even if you enter a planet, do you think you can escape?”
The two instantly charged into the planet’s atmosphere and fell at an extremely fast speed!
Yang Jian rushed into the clouds.
Wen Shu’s vision was blocked.
But he didn’t care. Anyway, Yang Jian had long been locked onto by his aura!
As they were chasing each other, suddenly, a green light shot out from the clouds!
In an instant, it smashed toward Bodhisattva Wen Shu’s head!
That speed was extremely fast!
Wen Shu could not dodge in time. He staggered and fell from the Azure Lion Spirit’s body!
When hwe raised her head again. A strong wind blew, and a huge banner blotted out the sky!
“Pangu Banner!” Wen Shu cried out involuntarily.
It was then that he saw the green light that hit him just now. It was actually Ru Yi!
The clouds dispersed.
In the blue sky, Wen Shu realized that she was already surrounded by three people in the middle!
Yang Jian, Tai Yi, and Guang Chengzi!
In an instant, Bodhisattva Wen Shu cried out in his heart!
These other two people actually possessed the ultimate treasure of the Heavenly Venerate of Primordial Beginning!
The Pangu Banner was unfurled, and it was now difficult for him to escape.
With a wry smile, Wen Shu bowed to Guang Chengzi. “Greetings, Senior!”
“Don’t call me Senior!” Guang Chengzi’s eyes were cold. He looked at Wen Shu and gritted his teeth. “You betrayed your sect and joined the Western Church. How can you still have the gall to call me Senior?”
In fact, the relationship between the Twelve Golden Immortals was quite good.
After all, the Chanism always protected their young.
But they had crossed the bottom line when they joined the Western Church.
It was something that Guang Chengzi couldn’t accept at all.
As the leader of the Twelve Golden Immortals, Guang Chengzi was deeply in love with them.
Wen Shu knew that his life was on the line now. If he resisted, he would die without a doubt.
There was only one way, and that was to play the emotional card!
“Senior, it’s all because Shao Deng bewitched us. At that time, we lost all our cultivation base. He said that joining the Western Church would help us recover our cultivation base faster. That was why we were so obsessed with it. After joining the Western Church, we regretted it later, but there was nothing we could do about it! For so many years, I have been regretting it all the time! For the sake of our past friendship, please spare me this time!”
