Honghuang: I am an iron-eating beast, and Houtu overhears my thoughts

Chapter 23 Houyi and the Jade Rabbit (please collect, please recommend tickets)

Outsiders don't know what happened in the East Palace and the conversation between Tai Yi and Di Jun.

Only the next day, Tai Yi issued an order in the Lingxiao Palace, ordering Ao Yue, the protector of the Eastern Emperor, to lead demon soldiers and generals to attack Penglai Xiandao and destroy the Eastern Prince.

Ao Yue, standing in the first row of the ministers, accepted the decree.

He knew that this was an opportunity Tai Yi gave him, a chance to prove himself to the demons.

Therefore, he must successfully complete this task!

"To let him lead the army, His Majesty the Eastern Emperor really thinks highly of him!" The demon sage Ji Meng, who was standing in the second row of the ministers, said to Jiu Ying who was beside him through voice transmission with his soul.

Looking at Ao Yue's tall and straight back, Jiuying raised a disdainful arc at the corner of his mouth, and also said through the sound transmission of Yuanshen: "A young boy who thinks that he has the identity of the son of the ancestor dragon and the favoritism of the Eastern Emperor, can override him. Above us, let Dong Wanggong teach him the cruelty of the prehistoric."

"Hehe, he is indeed a kid, but he is also a powerful kid, so don't underestimate him. Don't forget, he forcibly absorbed half of Zulong's mana when he was born. Maybe...he might really be able to defeat Prince Dong in this battle. "An old voice resounded in the primordial spirits of Ji Meng and Jiuying at the same time.

"Brother Bai Ze, what do you mean?"

"The Eastern Emperor asked him to lead the army to attack Penglai, but he didn't let any of our demon saints accompany him. He was worried that we would share the merits. He wanted to create momentum for Ao Yue, but it also showed that His Majesty the Eastern Emperor's respect for Ao Yue With enough confidence, he believes that Ao Yue can defeat Duke Dong and wipe out Penglai Xiandao." Bai Ze stroked his gray beard and said leisurely through voice transmission with his soul.

"Just him, it's impossible?" Ji Meng still didn't believe it.

"Let's wait and see." Bai Ze didn't say anything more, but he narrowed his eyes looking at Ao Yue, and a deep color flashed in his eyes.

……

After going to court, Ao Yue walked out of the Lingxiao Palace, and was about to prepare various matters for attacking Penglai Xiandao.

Meng Zhang had been waiting for him outside the hall, and when he saw him coming out, he immediately walked towards him, didn't say anything, didn't ask anything, just followed him silently, fulfilling his duty of guarding.

"Guardian, please stay." Suddenly, a laugh came from behind them, hearing the sound, Erlong stopped, turned around, and saw Bai Ze.

"Dharma protector, I wish the Dharma protector the victory. When the Dharma protector returns from the extermination of the Eastern Prince, in my spare time, I invite you to sit in the old man's ashram. How about we have a discussion?" Bai Ze walked up to Ao Yue and made a gesture to him. Yi Yi, then stood up, said with a smile.

"You are welcome, the demon saint. You are a senior. If you invite me, the junior will go." Bai Ze is the head of the top ten demon saints. Although Donghuang Taiyi established his position above him, facing Bai Ze, Ao Yue still didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly returned a bow to him, and responded.

"Haha, okay, the old man will sweep the couch to greet you at any time." Bai Ze said with a smile, with a kind look on his face all the time, as if he was a pure old man with no worries.

"Yeah." Ao Yue nodded, expressing that she would definitely visit at that time.

Then, the two walked together for a while, and they separated at the overpass.

"Your Highness, are you going to attack Duke Dong's Penglai Immortal Island?" Meng Zhang, who had been silent since before, suddenly asked Ao Yue as he watched Bai Ze leave.

"Well, this is the second task His Majesty entrusted to me. I failed the last task. This time, I must not make any mistakes." Seeing Bai Ze's leaving figure, Ao Yue clenched her right hand into a fist and let go. Behind the waist, he opened his mouth and said.

"Dong Wanggong is the head of the male immortals appointed by Daozu. Donghuang Taiyi wants you to attack him. This...he is not using you to test Daozu's attitude towards the monster race?" Meng Zhang thought for a while, Some worried.

"Huh?" Hearing this, Ao Yue glanced at Meng Zhang.

Facing Shang Ao Yue's gaze, Meng Zhang was unmoved at first, then slowly lowered his head, and said, "This minister is lying."

"Don't think too much, and don't doubt your majesty. Since your majesty has ordered you to do so, then we will follow suit." Ao Yue said lightly, and after finishing speaking, she stepped forward and dispatched troops.

Hearing what Ao Yue said, Meng Zhang had no choice but to keep up. However, he kept this matter in his heart and planned to keep an eye on it in the future, lest Ao Yue was really used by Tai Yi and encountered any danger. In that case, he would be able to bear the trust of the Great Elder.

A hundred years ago, he was tricked by Kunpeng and was trapped in the Kunpeng Palace and couldn't go to rescue Ao Yue in time. The mistakes of that year must never be repeated!
……

On the other side, Buzhou Mountain.

It was judged by Houtu that he would have to sleep for at least a year before he could wake up. After only one day of sleep, the whole bear woke up. (At this time, it is still one day in the sky and one day on the ground.)
"Ha~" Lying on the kang, it raised its bear paw, put it in front of its mouth and yawned, then sat up and slowly opened its eyes.

"Are you awake, Brother Gun Gun?" A familiar voice came into Gun Gun's ears, and when he turned his head to look, he found that it was Hou Yi, who was feeding a little rabbit in his arms with a carrot.

bunny?
Rolling up some energy, it turned to look at the rabbit in Houyi's arms, recalled the past, and then remembered.

That's right, it hasn't drained all the demon souls in the Lingding Cauldron, and its grievances haven't been purified yet. Moreover, it originally wanted to catch a few soft-bone rabbits to roast and eat, because Gonggong Houtu and Ao Yue's World War I, plus I ate too much ice dragon fruit and had to sleep, now they are all gone.

Wait, Soft Bones Rabbit?

Gun Gun climbed down from the kang, rushed to Hou Yi, then hugged his thigh, and said to him very skillfully: "Good morning, great witch Hou Yi, I'm hungry, do you have anything to eat? "

"Haha." Hou Yi laughed, bent down, stroked his rolling head and said to it, "Of course there are spirit fruits, right? I happen to have some here, and they are from the golden-haired macaque family to thank our Houtu tribe for protecting them." , specially sent last year.”

As he said that, Hou Yi moved his legs, signaling Gun Gun to let go of him first, so that he could get the spiritual fruit for it.

Gun Gun immediately let go of his arms, followed Hou Yi, and said to him, "Thank you, great witch Houyi. By the way, big witch, the little rabbit in your arms looks familiar. It is the soft bone rabbit. ?"

"Yes, the Houtu Zuwu sent you to me yesterday, saying that you will sleep for at least a year, and asked me to take care of you. At the same time, he also gave this child to me. It is a soft bone rabbit. Its name is It's called white jade." Hou Yi was gesturing something on a dirt wall, and then a pattern appeared, shining light, and then some spiritual fruits flew out of the pattern and floated in front of Gun Gun, and at the same time, Hou Yi answered it road.

"Baiyu? This name is so common, I didn't know that I thought it was a piece of white jade." Seeing so many spiritual fruits, Rolling's eyes narrowed immediately, and he swallowed subconsciously. With a move, he grabbed a fruit and stuffed it directly into his mouth, while chewing, he said.

"Well, you're right." Hou Yi turned around and smiled at Gun Gun: "So, I gave her a new name, Jade Rabbit. Brother Gun Gun, what do you think of this name?"

Gun Gun chewed the fruit for a while, looked up at Hou Yi, blinked, and asked, "Ah? What's it called?"
