Honghuang: I am Qitian and I want to fight for the throne

Chapter 314: The weird monkey is afraid of ghosts
"It's actually him!"

Qi Tian was a little surprised.

The Qi that he had captured from the depths of the East China Sea, but whose specific origin he had never been able to figure out, now showed a striking similarity to the Qi of the primordial spirit of one of the demon kings outside.

No, to be more precise, the energy emitted by the demon king's soul outside and the energy he absorbed are of the same origin.

In other words, the person who took the Dinghai Ruyi Stick has a close relationship with the demon king outside.

Either they are master and servant, or they are some kind of clone.

Qi Tian was able to sense the Demon King's abnormality because he was at close range.

Because Qi Tian had just calculated the origin of the demon king, and the result was still nothing.

"Hidden deep enough!"

Qi Tian sneered for a moment, then said loudly:
"Come in, both of you!"

As Qi Tian finished speaking, two monkey demons in Taoist robes walked in with the sound of footsteps approaching from afar.

One looks like the macaque that Qi Tian had seen in his previous life, and the other looks like a golden monkey.

The Monkey King! The Ape King!
Qi Tian glanced at the Monkey King obscurely, and then invited the two monkeys to sit down with the Peng Demon King and the Lion King who came in earlier.

Ask directly:
"Why do you all come to my Flower-Fruit Mountain? You are not here just to see me, Old Sun?"

Hearing this,

The Bull Demon King, the Jiao Demon King and other visiting demon kings looked at each other and said that there was nothing important.

They came here just because they admired the Monkey King's reputation and wanted to make friends with him.

Qi Tian did not point out the problem when he heard it, but ordered his men to prepare a big banquet and drink happily with the demon kings.

period,

Qi Tian discovered that the Monkey King, who had the same origin as the mysterious energy, secretly looked at him with strange eyes from time to time.

Although it was obscure, his original soul sensed a strong sense of malice and greed.

"greedy."

Qi Tian seemed to be thinking about something, but his face did not show any strangeness.

Although the Monkey King's behavior allowed him to narrow down his previous guesses, he still couldn't be 100% sure who it was.

After all, there are more than one things about his Sun Wukong clone that make people remember him.

The identity of the son of destiny.

The true form of the Seven Treasures Thousand-Leaf Golden Lotus.

And the essence of the Red-butted Horse Monkey that was taken from his disciple Sun Yuan and integrated into Sun Wukong's clone.

Qi Tian had no intention of capturing and interrogating the Monkey King.

It’s not that I don’t dare, but I don’t want to alert the enemy.

Since the other party has already revealed a hint of his true intentions, he just needs to wait patiently for a while and he will naturally be able to get more information.

Once the target is identified, it can be wiped out completely in one fell swoop.

and,

Qi Tian now also realized that the Monkey King was just a clone and the other party could abandon and destroy it in a moment.

Qi Tian was not sure he could stop it.

After all, anyone who can resist his calculations must at least be a strong person with the power to rival that of a saint.

It’s better not to rush into things.

……

Everyone was drinking, and when they were at their best, Bull Demon King suddenly suggested that since everyone shared the same sense of righteousness, they might as well become brothers.

As soon as this word comes out,
The others were stunned for a moment, but then they all nodded in agreement.

Qi Tian naturally did not refuse.

just,

How much of it is sincere, how much is false, and how much is calculated is up for debate.

After becoming sworn brothers, the relationship between everyone seemed to become closer on the surface.

It is a great pleasure to explain the doctrine and discuss the law, and talk about everything under the sun.

It was not until the lunar star rose and the sky gradually darkened that the Jiao Demon King was the first to stand up:
"Brothers, it's getting late. I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now. If you have time in the future, you can come to my Beiming Sea Cave Mansion to have a chat."

The Bull Demon King also looked at the sky and said:
"It is indeed getting late, and I have to leave. From now on, if you brothers have time to come to my Jilei Mountain, I will make a bed for you."

The other four demon kings also stood up upon hearing this, clasped their fists towards Qi Tian and said:
"Brother Sun, let's stop here today. It's time for us to say goodbye. We have a long way to go. With our abilities, a little distance is nothing."

"In that case, let's meet again in the future!"

"Okay! Farewell!"

The Bull Demon King and the six demon kings bowed and said goodbye, then each rode on a cloud and left the Flower-Fruit Mountain.

but,

Before disappearing, the Monkey King once again gave Qi Tian a subtle and deep look.

Qi Tian's heart moved slightly, but he pretended not to see it and turned back to the Water Curtain Cave.

"Clatter, clatter~"

Accompanied by a slight rustling sound, a crack quietly appeared from the ground.

At the same time, an extremely cold gray fog surged out from the ground of Huaguo Mountain and completely enveloped Huaguo Mountain in a moment.

All the living beings inside felt their souls dazed for a moment, and soon fell into a coma.

Then, two balls of thick fog slowly rose from the ground and transformed into two figures, one black and one white.

His face was gloomy, he wore a tall official hat, and held handcuffs and shackles in his hands.

It is the soul-catcher who captures ghosts in the netherworld.

Black and white are impermanent.

but,

The Black and White Impermanence, who are usually majestic and awe-inspiring, now look trembling with fear and trepidation.

After carefully looking around, Hei Wuchang lowered his voice and whispered:
"Brother Bai, there seems to be no movement!"

Bai Wuchang also looked around cautiously, and seeing no unusual movement, he straightened up immediately.

He glanced at the still shrinking Hei Wuchang and scolded:
"Look at your useless appearance. You have brought shame to our underworld. It's just the Flower-Fruit Mountain, right? What are you afraid of? Not to mention that the Great Sage is gone, even if he were here, as the face of the underworld, I would not be afraid!"

As soon as this word comes out,
Hei Wuchang immediately showed a trace of shame, then gave Bai Wuchang a thumbs up and said:

"Brother Bai is amazing. He has such courage even in the Taoist temple where the Monkey King used to be. I admire him!"

"Haha~"

Seeing Hei Wuchang's admiring and respectful gaze, Bai Wuchang felt relieved and filled with heroic spirit.

He walked towards the Water Curtain Cave with great arrogance, saying loudly:
"Let's go. Today, I will take you to the Saint's Cave to capture the Demon King!"

"it is good!"

Hei Wuchang seemed to be infected as well, and followed with big strides.

But as we walked, I asked curiously:
"Brother Bai, do you know the background of the demon king we are going to capture today? In the past, when we captured ghosts, we had to go through the Ghost Gate, walk along the Yellow Spring Road, and cross the Naihe Bridge. Why is it that today, you gentlemen directly opened up the Yin and Yang worlds and directly captured the soul and brought it to the Palace of the King of Hell?"

"How would I know!"

Bai Wuchang rolled his eyes, and seeing that Hei Wuchang was still curious, he reminded him:

"Old Black, I'm giving you a piece of advice. Don't be too curious. We are just small fry with little power. Don't ask about things we shouldn't know. Otherwise, if we get into trouble, even death will be a luxury! It's not easy to make a living these days!"

Hei Wuchang's expression suddenly became serious:
"Thanks for the reminder, Brother Bai! I can save myself from that!"

"Well, a boy can be taught!"

Bai Wuchang nodded and continued walking towards the Water Curtain Cave.

But after walking a few steps, he suddenly said in a gossipy voice:

"I heard from my sister-in-law's brother-in-law's sister's brother's brother-in-law who died not long ago that this demon king seems to be related to our Lord Yama.

The master wanted to find a good job for him in private, but he didn't want the Taoist to find out, so he asked the other nine masters to help him directly break through the Yin-Yang Tribulation and secretly lead him over. Didn't you see that the master repeatedly told us not to make a big fuss when we came here? "Uh"

Hei Wuchang looked at Bai Wuchang strangely.

Just now she was reminding him not to be too curious, but the next moment she was gossiping about the King of Hell behind his back.

Do you really want to listen to Brother Bai’s reminder?

However, this thought disappeared in an instant, because Hei Wuchang was shocked by Bai Wuchang's next words and screamed:
"This... this is impossible, right? Lord Yama is recognized as upright and incorruptible in our underworld. How could he abuse his power for personal gain and commit corruption?"

"Shhhhhh!"

Bai Wuchang was startled by Hei Wuchang's loud voice. He suddenly jumped up and slapped Hei Wuchang on the forehead, growling:

"Keep your voice down, you idiot. Do you want to kill me?"

As he spoke, he carefully looked around, and when he saw that there was no one around, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The Black Impermanence who was slapped did not dare to get angry, but said in a low voice with an apologetic look on his face:
"Sorry, sorry, this news is really too explosive. I was a little shocked just now!"

"Cut~"

Bai Wuchang rolled his eyes at Hei Wuchang:
"This is nothing new. I have even more explosive news. My brother-in-law's sister-in-law said that Niutou's wife and Ma cough cough..."

At this point, Bai Wuchang suddenly caught a glimpse of Hei Wuchang's eyes flashing green, and suddenly remembered that this guy seemed to have a big mouth, so he quickly stopped talking.

Changing the topic:
"Well, it's getting late, let's do our work quickly, otherwise we'll be delayed and blamed by our superiors. Let's go!"

As he spoke, he rushed into the Water Curtain Cave with great speed.

At the crucial moment, Black Impermanence and White Impermanence stopped talking, as if a cat was scratching his heart, and he hurriedly shouted:

"Hey, Brother Bai, why don't you finish your story? Niu Tou's wife and Ma Shui."

however,
Before Hei Wuchang finished speaking, Bai Wuchang's scream suddenly came from the Water Curtain Cave:

"Ah, there's a ghost."

The sound stopped suddenly.

Hei Wuchang was so frightened that his eyes widened and his whole body trembled. The next moment he turned around and ran away.

Because he heard endless fear in Bai Wuchang's voice.

Moreover, Bai Wuchang fell silent afterwards, which meant that he must have met with an accident.

His cultivation level is almost the same as Bai Wuchang's, and if he rushes to rescue him rashly, he will definitely get himself into trouble.

"Brother Bai, hold on, I'll go back and get some help!"

Muttering to himself, he ran faster and in a few breaths he arrived at the crack where he had come out before.

Just as he was about to jump in, Bai Wuchang's roar suddenly rang out from behind him:

"What are you going to do?"

"Ah~"

Hei Wuchang's body stiffened and he slowly turned his head to look back, only to see Bai Wuchang standing at the entrance of the Water Curtain Cave in the distance, looking at him with a gloomy face.

"I this and that"

Hei Wuchang stuttered, not knowing what to say, but finally an idea flashed in his mind:
"Brother Bai, are you okay? I just heard you shouting that there was a ghost, and I was just about to find someone to help exorcise the ghost and save you!"

Bai Wuchang's face suddenly turned dark:
"You are lying to ghosts. You are a ghost collector yourself. Why do you need to look for someone else? Who should you look for? You are a disloyal coward. Get back here!"

"Uh"

Hei Wuchang blinked, turned around awkwardly and walked towards Bai Wuchang.

"Hehehe, I forgot about it for a moment!"

Bai Wuchang rolled his eyes, too lazy to pay attention to this bastard who was lying with open eyes, turned around and walked into the Water Curtain Cave again.

Hei Wuchang smiled awkwardly and followed him in.

He really wanted to see what the ghost that could frighten Bai Wuchang, who was responsible for collecting ghosts, into screaming in fear looked like.

"How can a ghost collector be frightened by ghosts?"

Muttering something, Hei Wuchang walked into the Water Curtain Cave, the legendary dojo of the Monkey King.

The first thing he looked at was the center.

Then he met a pair of deep eyes and was immediately frightened:
"Oh my god, it's a ghost~"

"Shut up!"

Bai Wuchang shouted angrily and scolded:
"Look carefully, the Monkey King has been bewitched by the Nether Lice Qi and has fallen asleep, but his eyes are open. Look at your useless look, how can you capture ghosts in the future with this little courage?"

Hearing this,

Hei Wuchang paused and looked carefully, and sure enough, the monkey demon didn't react at all.

Really fell asleep.

"Whoo~"

Hei Wuchang heaved a sigh of relief, and then couldn't help cursing:

"It's really unlucky. Just go to sleep, but you slept with your eyes open and scared me!"

Although Bai Wuchang had the same feeling, he still reminded:

"Well, be careful what you say, this guy might be our boss in the future!"

Hei Wuchang was stunned: "Isn't it impossible?"

"That's impossible to say!"

Bai Wuchang shook his head, and seeing that Hei Wuchang wanted to say something, he waved his hand and said:
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and get to work!"

Saying,

The handcuffs and anklets in his hands flashed white and turned into a rope, which he threw towards the sleeping Monkey King.

The rope seemed to be invisible and went straight through the Monkey King's body and was put on his soul.

The other end is simply held in one's own hand.

Hei Wuchang, who was standing by, saw the scene and muttered something, then he also turned his handcuffs and shackles into ropes and put them around the Monkey King's soul.

Then the two ghosts pulled gently and pulled the Monkey King's soul out of his body.

"move!"

Bai Wuchang suddenly felt a little uneasy, and called out to Hei Wuchang, and together they dragged the Monkey King's soul and walked quickly outside.

Soon he arrived at the underground crack and jumped down.

but,

What the two ghosts didn't realize was that the soul they captured, which looked like the Monkey King, had a single monkey hair that was a little different from the others and seemed to be a real thing.

But once it entered the crack, it turned into a virtual entity like a soul.

In the netherworld,
Hei Wuchang was filled with ghostly energy, holding the mourning stick in his hand with an angry look on his face:
"We detained him, why should we hand him over to you two?"

Before he could finish his words, Bai Wuchang next to him covered his mouth with his hands.

Looking at the fierce-looking Bull-Headed and Horse-Faced Demon, Bai Wuchang held down Hei Wuchang with a smile and said:

"Since you two are willing to help, that's great. I'll leave this Monkey King to you!"

After all,

He then took the initiative to hand over the Monkey King's spirit.

"Hmph, you know what's going on!"

The Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Demons snorted coldly, then glared at Hei Wuchang fiercely before heading towards the Yama Palace with the Monkey King's spirit.

Only after the two ghosts took the Monkey King's soul away did Bai Wuchang let go of Hei Wuchang.

After being freed, Hei Wuchang immediately glared at Bai Wuchang and asked dissatisfiedly:
"Why are you trying to stop me? Those two bastards dared to steal the credit that belongs to us. I will tear them into pieces!"

Facing the aggressive Black Impermanence, White Impermanence shook his head helplessly and asked:
"With our abilities, can we defeat them?"

"I……"
