My wife is Invincible East
Page 291
Sun Wukong flew backwards, and Guanyin also flew backwards. Zhu Moye watched from the side with great clarity. To be honest, Guanyin was more powerful, a little stronger than Sun Wukong.
Zhu Moye quickly flew over and supported Sun Wukong. Sun Wukong's entire body was ablaze with golden light, his blood and energy surging as he recuperated. Even so, Sun Wukong continued to spit out three mouthfuls of golden blood.
Guanyin retched a few times, with a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth. She wiped the blood off and looked at Sun Wukong and Zhu Moye coldly. Guanyin knew that she was stronger than both of them, but not by much, and she would definitely not be their opponent when they worked together.
"Sun Wukong, you know you are no match for me. Now you have caused another terrible disaster. Why don't you quickly follow me to Lingshan to worship Buddha, maybe I can save your life!" Guanyin shouted. Although the situation was unfavorable, she had been fighting as hard as anyone in her life and remained unafraid.
"Shut up!" Sun Wukong shouted. He was always stronger when facing a stronger opponent, and seeing how powerful Guanyin was, he actually wanted to rush forward and fight her again.
Zhu Moye quickly grabbed Sun Wukong, knowing that he could not win, and it would be unwise to fight to the death.
"Zhu Moye, you have also committed many sins. If you follow me to Lingshan, my Buddha can set a path for you to become a Buddha. Your future success will depend on me!"
"Little sister Guanyin, you'd better leave now, otherwise my brother and I might have to capture you. Then, hehe, what can we do? I won't even know what will happen to us."
Guanyin suddenly felt her body tremble, and she felt a little palpitation in her heart for no reason. She looked at the two people several times, snorted coldly, and left quickly.
Chapter 744 Persuasion
Seeing Guanyin fleeing in a panic, Sun Wukong hugged Zhu Moye's shoulders and laughed.
"Brother, there are only a few people from ancient times to the present who can drive Guanyin away. Brother, you are very domineering, aren't you?"
Zhu Moye chuckled and shouted, "That's because Big Brother is here to intimidate me, otherwise little sister Guanyin would definitely suppress me."
Hearing Zhu Moye call Guanyin "little sister" again, Sun Wukong couldn't help but take a deep breath. Although he didn't care about Guanyin Bodhisattva, he still showed some respect on the surface. After all, she was a Bodhisattva!
This brother is so cruel, he just calls her "little sister" directly. And judging from his tone before, what's going on? Is he planning something towards Guanyin Bodhisattva?
Sun Wukong quickly stopped his thoughts and didn't dare to think any more. His expression changed and he shouted, "Brother, we have completely offended the Buddhists this time. I wonder what your plans are?"
Having already fallen out with him and offended him to death, Sun Wukong completely eliminated any possibility of reconciliation. He figured that the worst that could happen was death, and now all he needed to do was find a way out for his children, and he would have no regrets.
As for Zhu Moye, Sun Wukong knew that this brother was no ordinary man and thought he had a way to save his life. If possible, entrusting his monkeys and grandchildren to Zhu Moye would not be a bad idea.
But now Zhu Moye is in a difficult situation, so he needs to ask more questions to confirm.
Zhu Moye was shocked. He had been waiting for Sun Wukong to say this.
"Brother, I wonder if you believe me?"
It was the first time Sun Wukong had seen Zhu Moye look so serious. He was awed, but he shouted without hesitation, "Of course, I, Sun Wukong, believe you, brother."
"Okay, then let's go find Nuwa!" Zhu Moye said, "Brother, I was a little hesitant before, but now there's no way out. We can only devote ourselves completely to Taoism."
Sun Wukong was shocked. He certainly understood Zhu Moye's reasoning. Perhaps due to information asymmetry, Sun Wukong didn't know as much about the Buddhist-Taoist conflict as Zhu Moye did, but with his natural intelligence, he also sensed the signs of impending storms.
Zhu Moye relayed to Sun Wukong what Taishang Laojun had told him about the conflict between Buddhism and Taoism. Sun Wukong pondered for a moment and exclaimed, "No wonder those old brothers persuaded and pressured me to join this journey to the West. It turns out that everything behind this is the conflict between Buddhism and Taoism."
"Brother, let me be disrespectful. If you want to be able to play both sides and maintain a transcendent position in this Buddhist conflict, you must either have a strong backing or extraordinary strength. Dare I ask, do you have the ability in this regard?"
Sun Wukong shook his head. Although he was quite confident in his own strength, he also knew that in this world full of gods and Buddhas, his true strength was nothing. There were many people who could suppress him!
"In that case, instead of passively entering the battlefield, we should take the initiative. This is a battle that has swept across the entire universe. Now that we are in it, we cannot try to escape, but should take the initiative to fight."
"Because we have no choice but to be swept in eventually. So why not seize some opportunities first?"
Sun Wukong is extremely intelligent and he understands things immediately.
"No wonder even though I'm staying here, there are still so many people, demons and Buddhas looking for me. It's not that I'm so arrogant or domineering, but the whole situation is like this. A storm is about to come!"
Zhu Moye nodded heavily.
After repeatedly recalling what happened in Journey to the West, Zhu Moye discovered a problem. If there were no other factors, the Journey to the West would have been inevitable. In the struggle between Buddhism and Taoism, Buddhism held the upper hand.
Although the Taoists were unwilling, they were unable to intervene due to certain reasons. They could only let Buddhism lead them by the nose, as a way of repaying some karma.
For example, when Taishang Laojun asked Sun Wukong to become an official, even if he wasn't the Horse Keeper, it's conceivable that the people in Heaven would still force Sun Wukong to rebel. The outcome was already calculated by Buddhism, and all the conspiracies and plots were just small tricks.
And Sun Wukong is a very impatient person. He can't be touched or he will get angry. Everything is done according to the situation. The Taoists have no way to express their suffering.
However, the appearance of Zhu Moye gave the Taoists a chance to salvage everything. However, with the Buddhists watching, the Taoists could not intervene directly. That was why the Jade Emperor secretly met with him and taught him the mysterious skills.
This was to allow him to increase his power so as to completely disrupt the situation where Buddhism had already taken the lead. This was then the excuse for the Taoists to take action.
Zhu Moye now dared to guarantee that the more chaos he caused in the world, the happier the Taoists would be. However, the Taoists were also the most unkind. After getting the chips, they still watched calmly, hoping for more chips.
Therefore, they did not contact Sun Wukong first, but waited for Zhu Moye's arrival. If Zhu Moye wanted to complete his mission, he had to borrow help. There was no other way, and living under someone else's roof was such a situation.
He knew that someone was taking advantage of him, but in order to achieve his own goals, he had no choice but to be used, and he had to act like he was willing to be used!
Offering a pledge of allegiance was naturally the best solution. And what greater gift could there be than bringing along Sun Wukong, the source of this great opportunity on the Journey to the West?
Before, Zhu Moye wanted to go and pay a visit to Nuwa, but to be honest, how could he pay a visit to her? What reason did he have? Just because they were all demons, he hoped to get help. Why would he go to war with Buddhism for a monkey?
Even if Sun Wukong is carrying the great fortune of heaven this time, it is not that important! Besides, what benefits can be gained!
But if Sun Wukong were to fully embrace Taoism, the meaning would be completely different. As one rises and the other declines, the Buddhists planned for hundreds of years, mobilizing countless manpower, material resources, and divine secrets, but in the end, when they finally reaped the fruits, they were snatched away by the Taoists.
The fortunes of Buddhism have dwindled, while those of Taoism have soared! This isn't just about snatching a person from Buddhism, but also snatching a top-tier combat force and countless opportunities. It could even affect the current balance of power between Buddhism and Taoism, with Buddhism on the defensive and Taoism flourishing.
What Zhu Moye didn't know was that he was also a person of great destiny, able to change against the will of heaven. This time, he and Guanyin had a falling out, and if they both devoted themselves to Taoism, then the Taoist fortune would be extraordinary.
Sun Wukong also understood this truth, but he fought hard but could not escape the identity of a chess piece. His fate was controlled by others from beginning to end, and he was really unwilling to accept it!
Chapter 745 The Queen Mother Arrives
Zhu Moye saw the reluctance in Sun Wukong's heart. He himself was not a person who could sit still. Being free was what Sun Wukong longed for most.
In fact, Zhu Moye even had some doubts. If Sun Wukong had not been imprisoned by the golden hoop, it would have been a miracle for him to have persisted in the journey to the West. Of course, it was only because Sun Wukong was loyal and righteous that he persisted.
"Brother, please stop talking. I understand. If you don't have the ability, don't use that name. I, Sun Quan, was just called the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, but I was suppressed for five hundred years."
Zhu Moye didn't say anything else, and the two of them rode the cloud together towards West Kunlun. Although West Kunlun was in the same world as Journey to the West, it was not on the four continents. It was a small world, and it was the place where Nuwa practiced.
When the Third Holy Mother Yang Chan left, she gave Zhu Moye the approximate location so that Zhu Moye could come and find her easily.
West Kunlun is located deep in the Kunlun Mountains. Kunlun is where the Queen Mother attained enlightenment. Even now it is still a holy place. It is rumored that the Queen Mother once descended here in her Taoist form. Both ordinary people and Taoist cultivators regard this place as a holy place.
Zhu Moye and Sun Wukong landed on the top of Kunlun Mountain, and immediately two golden-armored gods appeared and blocked them.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the holy place where the Queen Mother practices?" Both of them were wearing golden armor and holding eight-foot-long spears, looking very majestic.
Zhu Moye stepped forward and said, "I am Ming Huang Zhu Moye, and this is the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong. We are here to pay a visit to the Goddess Nuwa, and have come by on purpose."
"This is where the Queen Mother practiced in her past years. Goddess Nuwa did not practice here. You should leave quickly." The expressions of the two men changed. They had been in the mountains for a long time and had not heard of Zhu Moye's reputation, but they had heard of Sun Wukong's vicious reputation for a long time.
Zhu Moye and Sun Wukong saw the fear on their faces. Sun Wukong immediately stepped forward and shouted, "Since you've heard of my name, why don't you get out of the way? Are you waiting for me to hit you with a stick?"
The two retreated in shock, one pointing his spear at Sun Wukong and shouting, "Monkey, do you still want to be suppressed for another five hundred years?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the other three people present changed at the same time. Sun Wukong was furious. How dare someone call him a monkey to his face? Zhu Moye looked at this golden-armored god in amazement. He was really brave to speak rudely to Sun Wukong.
His colleague obviously hadn't expected that his colleague on duty would be so overbearing. He shuddered in his heart and quickly stepped aside. He would rather die than let his friend die.
Zhu Moye chuckled and said, "So it's not that you're brave, it's that you have someone to back you up. Tell me, who's backing you up?"
Zhu Moye has realized that there are some problems here, which may lead to some changes.
The golden-armored god looked at Zhu Moye, and his aura suddenly changed, becoming ethereal. He waved his hand to the side, and his colleague's eyes turned white and he fainted.
Sun Wukong's eyes flashed with golden light and he shouted, "Who are you?"
A light voice rang out, coming from a big and strong man, which was really a bit out of place. However, the meaning in this voice surprised Zhu Moye and Sun Wukong.
"This is not the place to talk, let's go somewhere else."
Zhu Moye and Sun Wukong exchanged a glance, neither of them moving. Both were meticulous individuals, so they naturally wouldn't just follow others. Even if they were skilled and courageous, there was no need to take unnecessary risks.
If the person doesn't reveal his identity, the two of them will definitely not follow him.
"I am the Queen Mother of the West. I am here to talk to you two on the orders of the Queen Mother," the golden-armored deity conveyed the message to the two, and without waiting for them to speak, he led the way.
Zhu Moye and Sun Wukong looked at each other, nodded, and followed.
The three of them circled around Kunlun Mountain for a few times, as if they had passed through some kind of formation. When they reappeared, Zhu Moye found that they were already in front of a large hall.
The golden-armored deity had transformed into a woman, dressed in a long red gauze dress, exuding an ethereal air. Her face was covered with a thin scarf, which concealed her cheeks.
Sun Wukong's eyes shone with golden light, and he exclaimed, "Hmm, it really is the Lady of the Nine Heavens. This scarf, I couldn't see through back then, and I still can't see through it now."
The Queen Mother of the West seemed to be accustomed to Sun Wukong's rudeness and led the two into the hall. The hall was very large, with a statue of the Queen Mother in front of it, which was the hall where the Queen Mother practiced and lived.
The Queen Mother of the West lived with her and was her closest companion. She politely invited the two to sit down, then bowed three times respectfully to a statue of the Queen Mother in front of the hall, calling out, "We respectfully invite the Queen Mother to descend to earth."
To the astonishment of Zhu Moye and Sun Wukong, streams of divine energy rose from the statue, obscuring it. Sun Wukong used his fiery eyes, but still couldn't see clearly.
The immortal aura quickly dissipated, and the statue transformed into a flesh-and-blood woman, none other than the Queen Mother. Although she was known as the Mother of the Three Realms, she was not very old. Surrounded by an immortal aura, she gave off the air of a mother who ruled the world.
"Great Sage, Emperor Ming, I am honored to meet you." The Queen Mother bowed.
Zhu Moye was still a little uneasy about meeting the nominal supreme leader of the Three Realms. He glanced over and saw Sun Wukong sitting carefree in his seat. He shouted, "Hey, Queen Mother, I didn't expect you to ask me something? Does the Jade Emperor know?"
"Stinky monkey!" The Queen Mother of the West couldn't help but curse, but was stopped by the Queen Mother with a smile.
"Great Sage, this Queen Mother has her own agenda when she comes to see you, and the Jade Emperor doesn't need to know. However, the Jade Emperor does know about this matter, and it was he who commissioned her to come here."
Sun Wukong became interested. He shouted, "Oh, so it's the Jade Emperor who wants to talk to me about something? Tell me, what is it? What am I busy with?"
The Queen Mother glanced at Zhu Moye and said, "No hurry. Before we talk, I want to ask you how you will explain the murder of Mu Zha?"
Sun Wukong glared, snatched out his golden cudgel, and shouted, "Great! So you're here to call me to task? It seems the havoc I wreaked on the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago wasn't enough."
The Queen Mother's expression was obscure. She knew that Sun Wukong was a volatile person, but she had never expected him to be so impulsive. She looked at Zhu Moye, who was amused. When Sun Wukong was angry, he had already spread the news.
Zhu Moye naturally didn't say anything and waited to see the show.
The Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens had long disliked Sun Wukong. Seeing him pull out his golden cudgel, she stepped in front of the Queen Mother. She coldly shouted, "Sun Wukong, do you still think this is just five hundred years ago? Five hundred years ago, you were unrivaled in the Heavenly Court. Now you can try to see if you still have the same ability?"
"Xuannv, step back!" shouted the Queen Mother.
Sun Wukong shouted, "Good girl, you actually challenged me, Sun Wukong! It seems that my five hundred years of suppression have really brought out all kinds of monsters and demons!"
"Great Sage, calm down, calm down. I have come to discuss something important with you!"
Chapter 746 Negotiation Qualifications
Zhu Moye also took the opportunity to persuade Sun Wukong to come down, but his eyes unconsciously looked at the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens for a few times. He could see that the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens was not bluffing. Could it be that the latter really had the strength to rival Sun Wukong?
Zhu Moye was really a little unsure about this suspicion. He still remembered that in the original Journey to the West, some people said it was fabricated or a loophole.
Sun Wukong was once unrivaled in the Heavenly Palace, but on his journey to the West, he encountered various monsters and often needed help. Could it be that the monsters on earth were more powerful than the immortals in heaven?
Zhu Moye felt this explanation was somewhat false. He had his own guess. Perhaps Sun Wukong had been weakened over the past five hundred years. Buddhism and Heaven had taken advantage of this shift in power.
During those five hundred years, Sun Wukong's power continued to grow, but it was still not as good as those in the Heavenly Palace. His great luck was suppressed, and in the process of suppression, it was secretly stolen by the Heavenly Palace and Buddhism.
"I guess this is the Emperor Ming, right? It's true that heroes emerge from youth," said the Queen Mother. In her eyes, Zhu Moye was indeed young.
Zhu Moye curled his lips. These immortals were all of the same character. They clearly came here to discuss something. They were all people of the same status, but they always pretended to be superior.
Wasn't the Queen Mother using Mu Zha's story to make them feel guilty so she could gain some advantage in the subsequent negotiations? Zhu Moye was as shrewd as a monkey, and Sun Wukong was a monkey, so how could he hurt the Queen Mother?
Seeing that neither of them showed any embarrassment, the Queen Mother smiled bitterly. She couldn't help but think in her heart: They are both cunning people and not easy to deal with!
"Queen Mother, you've asked Sister Jiu Tian Xuan Nu to wait here. I'm afraid there's something very important going on. Look, we're all so familiar with each other, why beat around the bush? Just say it directly. I'm also anxious to find my wife."
The Queen Mother of the West snorted, and the Ice Silkworm's Radiant Silk glistened on her body, ready to attack at any time.
"Mr. Zhu, please hold your tongue a little longer. Who is your sister? For someone like you, who can be your wife?"
Zhu Moye chuckled and looked at the Queen Mother of the West with a somewhat obscene look in his eyes.
"None of your business. I'm looking for my own wife. Why are you interfering? Are you attracted to me because of my handsomeness?"
"Bastard!" The Queen Mother of the West shouted, and she lifted up the red silk and flew towards Zhu Moye, making a whistling sound, which was very sharp.
Zhu Moye was about to test the strength of the Lady of the Nine Heavens when he stepped forward and punched Hong Ling. He knew that the Lady of the Nine Heavens' weapons were powerful, but her current body of a celestial dragon was also not to be underestimated and was not something that ordinary people could withstand.
Hong Ling and Zhu Moye's fists collided, creating a loud explosion. Both retreated backwards simultaneously. Zhu Moye, being a strong man, only took two steps back, while Jiu Tian Xuan Nu retreated more than four steps.
Her face was flushed with anger, her chest was heaving, and she looked exhausted.
Zhu Moye chuckled and shouted, "So this is your strength! It's a bit lacking, little sister. You still want to fight my big brother with this? Hey, why don't you go back and practice more?"
The Queen Mother looked at Zhu Moye with a look of shame and anger. She knew the strength of the Queen Mother. Although she was not invincible in the heavens, she was definitely not someone that anyone could dare to mess with.
Of course, the Ice Silkworm Shining Silkworm's function wasn't to fight in physical combat, but it was still one of the Heavenly Court's divine weapons, and its strength was unmatched. But it was actually knocked back by Zhu Moye's fist, which shows that Zhu Moye's physical strength was astonishing.
Zhu Moye knew that he had taken advantage of the physical body, but it was not his style not to take advantage of it, or not to celebrate his victory. It was quite interesting to make a few sarcastic remarks about the high-ranking fairy.
The Queen Mother was secretly shocked. It was said that Zhu Moye had deceived Sun Wukong with sweet words and became his sworn brother to him. Now it seemed that Zhu Moye had real abilities to be able to catch Sun Wukong's eye.
