Super Hero Monk: Hormones Journey to the West

Chapter 250 Who are their fathers?

Since the nine-tailed fox was the head of the fox clan, she naturally wouldn't take his words seriously. She immediately used the art of language to ask him what he really wanted.

Finally, she gave a wicked smile and said that the holy monk could ask for anything he wanted, and that she would do whatever he was capable of.

Seeing her looking so flustered, Zhu Ritian teased her:
“Master, don’t you like taking in your eldest son? Why don’t you just accept this old hag as your son? That way, Golden Horn and Silver Horn will call you godfather, and you can teach them to reform and live happily under your knees.”

Ah this?

Tang Xuanci glared at it irritably, cursing inwardly that this licking pig, though lecherous, still had rather picky tastes, pushing any ugly person onto its master, huh?

However, if it were really that simple, one could subdue a fox clan leader who appears to have nine tails and two powerful sons.

Let alone using his demonic muscles, he wouldn't even flinch if it came to verbal sparring.

For the sake of his home planet, he would do anything except for his closest relatives!

But the key is that the other party can't be subdued so easily. This old hag doesn't have a "golden cicada complex" and may even be keeping dozens of young men in her cave. Even if you please her, she might not obey you.

Needless to say, how could Gold Horn and Silver Horn possibly acknowledge a father?

Sha Dingtian, who was standing next to Tang Xuanci, already knew what Tang Xuanci was thinking. He took the opportunity to chime in and subtly hinted at it using the art of language. But as soon as he opened his mouth, he demanded a longevity elixir worth 1000 "One-Turn Golden Pills".

As everyone knows, a single transformation of the Golden Elixir can extend the lifespan of a newly formed Nascent Soul by 2^1 = 2 years.

那么1000×2=2000年……≈2^9×4=四枚九转金丹。

Good heavens, even the Northern Underworld Demon Ancestor, in his true form, couldn't utter such a boast!
The nine-tailed fox refused without even thinking, saying that it was impossible for them to produce so many golden pills.

It should be noted that this is currently the period when the tide of immortals and demons in the Three Realms are dying out, and golden pills are basically unavailable for sale in the free market.

The demons of Lion Camel Ridge, Little Thunder Temple, and Tongtian River West openly rebelled, yet they have not been eradicated to this day. Is it because the Heavenly Court cannot destroy them?
of course not.

The reason is simply that the economy is insufficient to support large-scale military operations.

Like the employees on Tang Xuanci's home planet, they used to work nine-to-five, earning 5,000 yuan a month, but their jobs were very safe. One day, their boss suddenly wanted to send people to war-torn areas to build railways, offering only a 10,000 yuan monthly allowance, with an additional 200,000 yuan if they died. Would anyone go?

I bought a watch last year! It must cost at least 30,000 a month, and if I die, I'll get 3 million, right?

Attacking Lion Camel Ridge was a billion times more dangerous than building a railway in a war zone.

If you lose, you won't even be able to become a ghost;

Even if they win, they might expend magical power and shorten their lifespan. If a vicious demon leader escapes the encirclement, the leading immortal may face retaliation against his entire family in the future.

If there aren't enough benefits, who would want to go?

The Heavenly Court is facing a shortage of peaches of immortality and golden pills, and is even struggling to pay the salaries of celestial beings.

Whenever the topic of quelling the rebellion in the west and raising military funds came up in the Lingxiao Palace, all the civil and military officials would stammer and pass the buck.

Even if some lower-level troops have to go, they probably won't actually fight. They might just engage in some "faith shooting" on the periphery, like a football team kicking the ball around casually, and then buy plane tickets and return home overnight.

Tang Xuanci knew that golden pills were important strategic resources, which is why he thought it was worthwhile to exchange the lives of Golden Horn and Silver Horn for a sum of golden pills.

He scoffed when the nine-tailed fox said no.

"You mountain lords and demons, you've been hogging such good spiritual veins for so many years, and you still complain about being poor to me."

"If it weren't for the fact that so many of our comrades have shed blood and sacrificed their lives without receiving the rewards they deserve, and if it weren't for the greater good of Azhou, would I be negotiating with you evil demons?"
"If you don't even have this much awareness, then there's nothing more to say. Go back to where you came from."

The nine-tailed fox was speechless, realizing that she had underestimated the legendary demonic muscle monk.

Tell the truth~
She had seen many sanctimonious immortals, but she had never seen anyone so shameless!
She had heard plenty of boastful words, but to make extortion sound so noble, glorious, and correct was truly unique!
Seeing that the gentle approach wasn't working, she changed her tune and said:
"Holy monk, forgive others when you can."

"After all, I am just their godmother. If I cannot save them today, I can only sigh."

"But if their biological father hears the bad news, he will not let it go and will definitely seek revenge."

"You've seen those magical treasures, and you should also know the origin of Pingdingshan. You can probably guess their father's background, right?"

The tone was still light and casual, but the threat was blatant.

But to her surprise, Tang Xuanci's face instantly darkened upon hearing this, and he immediately turned the volume up a billion times, unleashing a roar that shook the mountains:
Who is their father?
Is it Donghua Dijun (one of the Five Elders of the Five Directions), or Taishang Laojun?

"Even if they are, they can't do it! Do they have the final say in the Three Realms? The Three Realms are ruled by the Heavenly Laws and by all living beings!"
"You try asking them to come and bail out these two heinous criminals, and I'll arrest them both!"

Ah this! ?
The lingering sound echoed around the mountains and reverberated in the ears of the celestial beings and soldiers of the two states, holding everyone captive for several seconds.

Most people were horrified just listening to it, thinking to themselves, "Good heavens, what kind of outrageous talk is this? Is it something we should listen to?"

A few righteous people seemed to have their G-spot touched, and were inexplicably a little excited, pondering the phrase "the masses have the final say" and seemed to have some kind of realization.

Even the monkey glanced at Tang Xuanci from mid-air, secretly reciting these words, preparing to use them when it came to showing off later.

The nine-tailed fox, who was the first to be hit, stood frozen in place, its old mouth unconsciously opening slightly to reveal its pink tongue.

She had heard people say how crazy Tang Xuanci was, and thought the rumors were somewhat exaggerated, but to her surprise, they were actually quite conservative.

For a moment, she felt a little insecure, and even doubted whether Tang Xuanci might not be just a hypocrite, but truly sincere?

Otherwise, how could he speak with such strong conviction and fearlessness?

The nine-tailed fox is mute; I really don't know what else she can say.

But then Tang Xuanci turned up the volume and said again:
"You can leave now, get away from the scene. I'm warning you, don't try anything clever later!"

Then he said to Pig Daytian:

"The search area is already quite small. Golden Horn and Silver Horn could be exposed at any time, and given their personalities, they will definitely try their best to break through."

"Go back and keep an eye on things."

"Tell Wukong that once we spot them, we must fight them to the death! We absolutely cannot let our comrades bleed and sacrifice themselves!"

Pig-Head responded with a nod, but inwardly he was thinking, "You're really good at showing off. If I didn't know your true nature, I, Old Pig, would have lost all my confidence."

Seeing that Sha Dingtian gestured for him to leave, and that Zhu Ritian was about to pick up his gleaming rake, the Nine-Tailed Fox couldn't help but tremble.

After all, she wasn't some godmother; the Jin and Yin brothers were her own flesh and blood, born from her womb!
"Wait a minute!"

She quickly spoke up to stop him, and after a moment's thought:
"I definitely can't produce a thousand golden pills, but... I can try my best to gather them."

“Holy Monk, just as you predicted, they will not surrender easily. There are many soldiers in that mountain area. If there are more casualties, their guilt will be even greater.”

"Why don't I go and summon them out, and you take them back to the City God Temple to keep them safe? Then I'll first persuade them to give up Pingdingshan, and then try to raise the Golden Elixir."

"Anyway, you decide the severity of their crimes, and their lives are naturally in your hands."

Upon hearing this, Tang Xuanci first questioned her motives, then felt that it was a good idea. He could capture Jinjiao and Yinjiao first, secure the evidence, and then kill them whenever he was dissatisfied!

He frowned and looked at Sha Wujing, asking, "Is this... in accordance with the regulations?"

Sha Wujing suddenly realized and pondered, "It's in accordance with regulations. There are precedents for relatives and friends to persuade prisoners to surrender."

"Then... let's do it."

Tang Xuanci was secretly delighted, but then, as if remembering something, he said to the nine-tailed fox:

"Oh, right.

"At that time, they intercepted and killed the City God. They also had a purple-gold gourd and a seven-star sword in their hands, which were both murder weapons."

"I'm giving you two days. You must hand it over to the Ministry of Justice!"

The nine-tailed fox took a deep breath and reluctantly agreed.

Soon, surrounded by monkeys and pigs, she flew above the encirclement and shouted, staging a scene of a godmother persuading her to surrender.

As for the Golden Horn and Silver Horn, one had already been crippled by the monkey, and the other had also suffered minor injuries. After hearing the Nine-Tailed Fox's suggestive words, they obediently showed themselves.

The monkey immediately somersaulted down, captured the two demons alive, and seized the banana leaf fan and an earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a magical artifact that can reduce the range of fluctuations) item.

As Lady Chen spoke in a sweet voice, the entire capture operation came to a perfect end under her personal command and deployment. The immortals of Azhou rose into the clouds and departed triumphantly.
