Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 1766 Offending Heaven
The next day.

Sun Wukong heard snoring coming from Tang Sanzang's room and assumed that Tang Sanzang was tired from running around for the travel permit yesterday, so he didn't pay any attention to it and went out for a stroll early in the morning.

After wandering around for an hour, I still found nothing.

If it were during the time of the havoc in Heaven, he would have simply created a fake document, since ordinary people wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Now, after nearly ten years of traveling to the West, he has been quite disciplined.

He decided to use his best skill to solve the problem: exorcising demons!

Once the monster is eliminated, the king's illness will be cured. Then, we can use the king's name to practice medicine and save lives. The plan works.

He didn't take this little-known monster seriously at all.

The matter was not a secret. After finding out that the monster lived in the Xie Zhi Cave on Qilin Mountain, Sun Wukong went to eliminate the monster without saying a word.

In the past, it was always the monsters who provoked the pilgrimage team, and then they would retaliate. This time, Sun Wukong took the initiative to attack, and it had nothing to do with whether or not Tang Sanzang was involved.

The monster in the Xiezhi Cave of Qilin Mountain is Guanyin Bodhisattva's mount, the Golden-haired Roar, which has a nickname here: Sai Tai Sui.

Like the Green-haired Lion and the Yellow-toothed Elephant, the Golden-haired Roar was once one of the Seven Immortals who served the Jie Sect. At that time, his Taoist name was Golden Light Immortal.

Guanyin, Manjushri, and Samantabhadra, three great Bodhisattvas, each captured a celestial attendant from the Jie Sect as their mount. In this respect, they were more united than the original Three Pure Ones.
With a little trickery, Sun Wukong stole Sai Tai Sui's magic weapon, the Purple Gold Bell.

The two fought fiercely at the cave entrance. Sun Wukong said, "Your bell is female, and mine is male." Then he unleashed the real Purple Gold Bell, which produced fire with one shake, smoke with two shakes, and flying sand and stones with three shakes, forcing Sai Tai Sui to flee in disarray.

Sai Tai Sui is a master at playing dumb. Unlike the Green-haired Lion and the Yellow-toothed Elephant, who still wanted to struggle, he didn't want to struggle and had completely resigned himself to his fate. He would do whatever the big boss told him to do. The former Jin Guangxian was long dead.

However, when Sun Wukong was about to kill him with the Purple Gold Bell and Guanyin Bodhisattva failed to appear, he couldn't hold back any longer.

"Great Sage, hold your hand and listen to me!"

Sun Wukong was still quite reasonable. He had no grudge against the monster in front of him, and since he had come to attack it, he was somewhat in the wrong.

"You monster, what else do you have to say?"

Sai Tai Sui glanced south and wondered, "Why hasn't Guanyin Bodhisattva arrived yet? This isn't what we agreed on."

Seeing Sun Wukong's gaze growing increasingly sharp, he chuckled dryly, "Great Sage, please inquire: I have been in this Zhu Zi Kingdom for many years, and apart from the Golden Saint Palace Lady, have I ever committed any other evil deeds?"

Sun Wukong grabbed him by the collar: "In October of the year you kidnapped Lady Jin Sheng, you also kidnapped two palace maids. In March of the following year, you kidnapped two more. In July, you took two more. This February, you took two more. A total of eight palace maids. Do you think I, Old Sun, don't know?!"

Sai Tai Sui kept protesting his innocence: "That was all to serve Consort Jin Sheng Gong! I didn't even touch them with a single finger!"

Pigsy might be able to tell the truth from falsehood, but Monkey wouldn't.

Skipping over this topic he wasn't familiar with, he asked, "Is that all you wanted to say?"

Sai Tai Sui waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no! This is a long story. Does the Great Sage know what my mountain is called?"

Sun Wukong was completely confused: "Isn't it Qilin Mountain?"

"It is indeed Qilin Mountain!"

At first, I didn't understand what Sai Tai Sui meant. After thinking about it for a while, I finally realized the problem. There are very few places in the prehistoric world that can be named after Qilin. Qilin is originally the child of the earth. Ordinary places like mountains, caves, and cliffs simply cannot bear the name of Qilin.

It's not a good thing that this mountain is now called Qilin Mountain.

Sai Tai Sui cried out, "The legend in the Kingdom of Zhu Zi says that the founding emperor rode a Qilin to establish the kingdom, hence the name Qilin Mountain. In reality, this place has absolutely no connection to the Qilin clan. If I hadn't been here to oversee things, the mountain would have collapsed three years ago. If Qilin Mountain had fallen, the capital of the Kingdom of Zhu Zi would have been buried beneath it, and countless ordinary people would have perished!"

Sun Wukong seemed to realize something: "So, you've actually done a good deed?"

Sai Tai Sui then asked him, "Great Sage, do you know that the Kingdom of Zhu Zi has not seen rain for eight years?"

"Huh? What do you mean by that? Why isn't it raining?"

"When the current King of Zhu Zi was still the crown prince, he went hunting with his attendants one day and killed a male and a female peacock. Therefore, he named the hunting ground Luofengpo (Fallen Phoenix Slope). This act violated a great taboo, and the Four Heavenly Masters were furious. If I don't humiliate him and make him suffer, the Kingdom of Zhu Zi will probably cease to exist!"

Sun Wukong spared Sai Tai Sui and took away the Golden Saint Palace Lady; this was the key to unlocking the door, and he couldn't forget it.

Back at the inn, they asked Old Pig about it. Old Pig was shocked to hear that this wretched place dared to stage an accident with the Phoenix Clan.

Nowadays, only the place where Nuwa saved Yuanfeng can be called Luofengpo in the prehistoric world. If you dare to call any other place that, you can only be said to have great courage.

The matter of Qilin Mountain is easy to handle. Just have the Zhu Zi Kingdom change its name, and the Qilin clan won't do anything to them.

For Luofengpo, we need to negotiate with the Heavenly Court; it's not something I can just resolve by changing my name.

Sun Wukong first settled Lady Jin Sheng in an inn, and then he went to the palace to see the king.

As we approached the palace gates, before even entering the palace, we heard a series of screams coming from inside.

Seven or eight palace maids rushed out like madmen, and many ministers wearing headscarves were also in chaos, pushing and shoving each other. Some ministers were barefoot and didn't even know when they had lost their shoes.

Sun Wukong jumped directly onto the roof and looked inside. He saw a silver-scaled python, more than ten feet long, coiled up in the bedroom.

The python was restless, constantly whipping its tail. With a single lash, it could smash a pillar that two people could barely hug into a large crack.

Some palace maids said that the python was the king, while some ministers said it was a monster and should be killed immediately.

The entire palace was in complete chaos.

The Kingdom of Zhu Zi has three queens: the Golden Saint Palace, the Silver Saint Palace, and the Jade Saint Palace. At this critical moment, the remaining two queens have stepped forward.

They were quite capable. First, they commanded many soldiers to force the python to retreat with long spears. Then they tightly closed the palace gates. After that, they ordered the ministers to keep quiet and not to discuss the day's events. Finally, they still needed to treat the king's illness. The king was very, very ill. Now, no medical qualifications were required; anyone could treat the king.

"Anyone? This..." The chief eunuch was a little confused about what the two queens meant.

Yu Shenggong looked at him coldly: "That's right, anyone can."

The chief eunuch broke out in a cold sweat. Was this to treat an illness? Or was he worried the king was hungry and wanted to find him some food?
"Your subject obeys the decree."
