Chapter 357 Wu Xian: Since that's the case, then I won't pretend to be a gentleman anymore! (Happy Dragon Boat Festival!)
Surrender? Or die?

Upon hearing this, the five demon saints paused for a moment, but then revealed their anger.

They were great demon saints, renowned monsters throughout the Three Realms and Four Continents. Even the gods in heaven were unwilling to provoke them easily, so how could they have suffered such humiliation!

Submit or die?
Bah! Dream on!

"You stinking monkey! Who do you think you are? Even your ancestors wouldn't dare talk to me like that!"

Despite the pain in his body, the Flood Dragon King stood up and transformed into his true form as a serpent-dragon. He roared and howled at Wu Xian in the sky, displaying an unyielding and resolute demeanor.

"Hmph! You really think you're so great? If it weren't for that old ox betraying us, you wouldn't have been able to hurt us so easily!"

The Great Sage of Chaos, Peng Demon King, also sneered, and then revealed his true form as a demon, a giant roc with a wingspan of over a hundred feet. Although it did not look as majestic as the Golden-Winged Roc, it still had a considerable sense of oppression, clearly indicating that it had an extraordinary bloodline.

With these two demon kings taking the lead, the other three great saints of the demon race also mustered their courage, revealing their true forms and baring their teeth at Wu Xian.

Indeed, Wu Xian is terrifyingly strong. The five of them have experienced it firsthand and know they are no match for him. But if they were willing to pay any price, it wouldn't be difficult for them to escape. Under such circumstances, how could they be willing to submit to a junior?

Just as he was thinking this, three more streaks of light flew in from the horizon, and then landed in the four directions of east, west, south, and north, with Wu Xian as the center.

When the light faded, the figure revealed within caused the five demon saints' expressions to change drastically.

Leaving aside Pigsy, who was standing in the north, the first thing the Five Great Sages noticed was the burly figure in the west.

With a bull's head and a human body, a haggard face, and wielding a black iron cudgel, he was none other than the former leader of the Seven Great Sages, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, the Bull Demon King, who was also the traitor who led the other five Great Sages into this pig-slaughtering scam.

Opposite him, to the east, stood a cold-looking young man wearing a crown, black armor, and a white robe. Although the Five Great Sages had never met him, they could guess his identity from the three-pointed, double-edged sword in his hand and the third eye on his forehead.

Erlang appears as the Holy Lord, Yang Jian!
To the south of the two was a young man dressed in red, with his medium-length black hair standing on end and a distinctly fierce aura on his face.

"Nezha!!"

The Demon King screamed. As the overlord of the sea, he had naturally seen Nezha, who had fought against the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas several times.

But what surprised him most was that the other party looked exactly the same as he did back then, instead of the mechanical and ruthless feeling he had later experienced, like a toy puppet. At the same time, he felt that the other party was even more dangerous, no less so than Yang Jian and the Bull Demon King beside him.

But... how is this possible? Why would the two most powerful war gods of Heaven appear here? And judging from their appearance, they are clearly here specifically to help the chosen one.

But that shouldn't be the case. Didn't they say that the chosen ones killed 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals at Flower Fruit Mountain? The two sides should be hostile to each other now, so how could they possibly unite?

Could the news be false, or was it just a show, deliberately put on for the demon race, and that Old Bull had already defected to the enemy, thus setting up this trap to wipe out all the powerful demons in one fell swoop?
Upon realizing this, a mental storm raged in the mind of the Flood Dragon Demon King, and a massive plan targeting the entire demon race was launched.

On the other side, what he could think of, the other Great Sages naturally thought of as well, and for a moment they were drenched in cold sweat, feeling an immense fear descend upon them.

"hey-hey!"

Pigsy, carrying his rake, looked at the five trembling sages and then laughed at Wu Xian: "Good nephew, you're the one with the most clever ideas. You tricked these guys into coming here. Now we just need to wait for the Heavenly Court army to arrive, and we'll have cannon fodder to use."

Upon hearing this, the already uneasy Five Great Saints instantly flew into a rage, their gazes towards Wu Xian filled with anger and fear, as if they were looking at a demon.

Wu Xian was speechless upon hearing this. "You idiot, why did you just blurt out the truth? How am I supposed to trick these guys into going to their deaths now?"

Fine, let's leave it at that. After all, this guy is my martial uncle and practically my father-in-law.

With a helpless sigh, Wu Xian's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he said in a deep voice, "Since you have all heard it, then I don't need to pretend to be a gentleman anymore."

That's right. The reason I tricked you all into coming here was to start a war with the Heavenly Court and weaken their power, just like Sun Wukong's havoc in the Heavenly Palace a thousand years ago.

As he said this, Wu Xian's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mocking expression.

"Speaking of which, during that time when you caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace, apart from the Mighty King, all five of you acted like cowards. You were truly loyal brothers who would go to great lengths for each other... Hehe, as the saying goes, what goes around comes around, and now it's time to pay the price!"

"Chosen One! Don't push your luck against demons!"

Hearing the undisguised mockery and contempt from the other side, the Five Great Sages were filled with shame and anger, but looking at Yang Jian and Nezha in the sky, they still dared not take the initiative to attack. Finally, the second-ranked Jiao Demon King roared:

"Fighting you means death, fighting the Heavenly Court also means death. If you keep pushing us like this, aren't you afraid we'll fight to the death? In that case, no one will escape!"

The implication is that cannon fodder is out of the question, but fighting the Heavenly Court together is not out of the question. Everything can be discussed. We are all brothers in the same trade, and there is no need to tear each other apart.

"Heh! Looks like you've chosen to die."

However, Wu Xian sneered and suddenly extended his golden cudgel, swinging it out with lightning speed. The Jiao Demon King only saw a flash of golden light before feeling a sharp pain on his face. Blood and broken teeth flew everywhere as he howled and was sent flying ten miles away.

Seeing this, Nezha, who had been silently posing, narrowed his eyes, reached out and controlled the Hun Tian Ling to fly out, instantly binding the Jiao Demon King into a dumpling, making it impossible for him to move an inch.

All of this sounds complicated, but it actually happened in the blink of an eye. The other four Great Sages didn't even have time to react before their beloved second brother knelt down.

"Run away!!"

With a roar, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven flapped his wings and flew into the sky, followed closely by the Lion Camel King. Only the Macaque King and the Yu Rong King were slightly stunned, but they quickly turned and ran away, showing no desire to fight whatsoever.

The next second, a huge phantom of a formation rose from mid-air.

Bull Demon King, Yang Jian, Nezha, and Pigsy stood in the void, fully activating their internal magic power. Relying on the formation, they manifested the four elements of metal, wood, water, and fire in the four directions of east, south, west, and north, with Wu Xian's earth element at the center. Each of the five elements represented a symbol, and each symbol represented a line.

The light of the five elements spread out, reversing yin and yang, turning heaven and earth upside down, establishing order in the vast world of this Little Western Paradise, and suppressing all five great saints.

……

Meanwhile, outside the South Heavenly Gate, a million heavenly soldiers were arranged in layers, surrounding the heavens, with several mysterious figures swaying faintly at the very top.

At the very front, a tall and imposing man stood with his hand on the sword at his waist, his gaze piercing through space as he looked down upon the human world, muttering to himself.

"Great Sage, I'm sorry..."
