Journey to the West: Starting by taking Sun Wukong as my disciple!-Chapter 119: Yang Jian Actually Came to Participate?
"Long-Ear is dead?!" Golden Spirit was stunned all at once.
Since the immortals formed groups and gathered together, they would casually set up a Silencing Formation while speaking so as not to let their voices leak out, thus the nearby immortals didn’t notice the anomaly with Golden Spirit.
"Yes, he’s dead." Bixiao’s voice was very satisfied.
"I personally gouged out his eyes!"
"I severed his roots of calamity." Qiong Xiao’s voice was cold, as if she wished she could do it again.
Yunxiao also showed no mercy, "I personally beheaded him."
"Good, good!" Golden Spirit Mother shouted twice, her body trembling with excitement, the traitor who had nearly betrayed their entire Jie School was finally dead!
"If only you had brought me along earlier, I could have struck a blow and vented my anger!" Golden Spirit took a deep breath to calm her emotions, looking at the Three Xiaos with some resentment.
Although she was elated to hear the news of the traitorous Long-Ear’s death, she felt something was missing because she hadn’t participated personally.
"Our main issue was we didn’t know we would encounter him." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Yunxiao smiled sheepishly, feeling guilty. If Golden Spirit Sister knew they had gone to destroy the Golden Buddha statues for money, who knows what she would think of them.
Yunxiao might not have said it, but that didn’t mean others wouldn’t.
Bixiao, carefree and straightforward, openly boasted, "My sisters and I directly destroyed all the Golden Body Statues that were worshiped in the Buddhist temples and exchanged them for money.’
"It’s just a small loss of the Power of Faith for cultivation, right? Those bald monks acted as though their lives depended on it, all rushing over. That dead rabbit was also there, and we caught him right in the act."
"Nicely done!" Golden Spirit was full of praise for the actions of the Three Xiaos. Exchanging Golden Body Statues for money was indeed a good method.
She wondered if there were any Golden Body Statues near her own temple—if so, she could also try her hand, and use the money to redecorate her temple.
Buddhism is nothing but a bunch of hypocrites, even Tathagata is the same!
As the eldest disciple, not only did he fail to set an example, he even became a traitor, taking the reins of Buddhism.
Aside from their methods of tricking people, there seemed to be no difference between him and Long-Ear Dingguang Immortal, perhaps with a few less blemishes.
But then...
Golden Spirit suddenly wondered and asked, "What do you need the money for?"
Each of you are at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortals, what use is mortal money to you?
Yunxiao felt a bit embarrassed but eventually spilled the beans, thankfully Golden Spirit Mother’s attention was immediately captured by Chaos Residence.
"I never would have imagined that within the Three Realms, there was such a mystical place!"
"The awakening of Divine Skills you mentioned, is it real?" Golden Spirit Mother still had some disbelief, not because she didn’t trust her fellow disciples, but because it was simply too unimaginable.
A meal was all it took for someone to awaken Divine Skills, something that transcended what could be described as miraculous.
Throughout the Three Realms, there had never been talk of such a powerful entity, so unfathomably profound that they shouldn’t remain unknown until now.
"You said the Venerable Master also went there?"
Qiong Xiao shook her head, "Neither Erxiao nor I saw him, but Big Sister was present."
"It’s true, and... the Venerable Master seemed to hold Shopkeeper Chen in extremely high regard." Yunxiao nodded, recalling, "They seemed more like friends."
The Venerable Master considered someone a friend and held him in high esteem?
Golden Spirit was shocked. As the first disciple to be accepted by the Venerable Master, she was well aware of his proud nature.
It was rare for anyone to be recognized by the Venerable Master, even for them, his disciples, who were often praised, it was merely for their potential and talent.
And friends?
She had never known the Venerable Master to have any friends!
As for respect, apart from the normal reverence he had for the Elder during the God-Sealing Tribulation, it was probably only for that one individual, right?
Before she could even think about it, Golden Spirit Mother hurriedly shook her head, dispelling the thought from her mind.
Since her esteemed master held such respect, she certainly had to find time to visit.
As the Golden Mother of Jade Lake was about to speak, she heard Bixiao say again, "Wait until next time. Sister, you should join us then, and we’ll also invite Wudang Sister."
The Golden Mother nodded, "That would be very good."
"It’s just a pity that Sister Gui Ling is no longer with us, otherwise all second-generation female disciples would have been gathered," Bixiao spoke, sighing with a somewhat sorrowful expression.
Golden Mother and the other Erxiao felt the same way.
To die and be listed at least allowed for a reunion, but Gui Ling had been utterly annihilated!
"Damn that Mosquito Taoist, the day I encounter him, I’ll tear him to pieces!" the Golden Mother of Jade Lake said fiercely.
At that moment, another person entered the grand hall, standing tall with a handsome appearance.
"Yang Jian? What’s he doing here?"
"Indeed, he has never attended a Flat Peach Feast!"
The immortals who noticed began whispering among themselves. There was no helping it, considering Yang Jian’s complicated relationship with the Jade Emperor.
Moreover, who in the Three Realms didn’t know of Yang Jian’s advancement to Daluo Golden Immortal, having slain Lingji Bodhisattva of Buddhism?
Yang Jian paid no attention to the immortals, simply looking around casually. When he saw the small figure standing alone, he called out, "Nezha!"
"Big Brother Yang!" Seeing the newcomer, a flash of surprise crossed Nezha’s eyes, and he hurriedly went up to greet him.
Ever since Yang Jian had entered closed-door cultivation, they hadn’t seen each other, so a reunion today was naturally a joyous occasion.
"Congratulations on your advancement to Daluo Golden Immortal, Big Brother Yang," Nezha said cheerfully, bowing formally.
Yang Jian shook his head helplessly, "You, you’re still as unserious as ever. Must have been punished by your father a lot, haven’t you?"
"How could that be!" Nezha glared, saying disdainfully, "He’s counting on me to help him subdue demons and vanquish evil."
"Big Brother Yang, how did you break through to become a Daluo Golden Immortal and reach the Twenty-Seventh Grade of Blossoming? That’s too strong!" Nezha said enviously.
However, compared to before, his longing for the rank of Daluo Golden Immortal had lessened quite a bit.
After all, he now possessed the Divine Skills of cross-dressing, with an aptitude through which he could break through to Daluo Golden Immortal!
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian hesitated before spilling everything.
What?!
Big Brother Yang had been to the Chaos Residence as well?!
Nezha was stunned; a single bowl of noodles had not only allowed Big Brother Yang to break through to Daluo Golden Immortal but had also awakened such powerful Divine Skills?!
Wasn’t that just defying the heavens?
Why was his own so, well, whatever it was?
Nevertheless, Nezha knew that this was the most suitable Divine Skill for him because it addressed his most significant shortcoming: his aptitude.
Did he, the great Prince Nezha, really have to wear such embarrassing attire and show his face?
No, that was absolutely unacceptable!
"Nezha? Nezha? What’s wrong with you?" Yang Jian, seeing Nezha suddenly space out, was puzzled and waved his hand in front of his eyes.
Nezha snapped back to reality and involuntarily took a few steps back, stuttering, "No... nothing’s wrong."
Yang Jian scanned Nezha up and down, somewhat puzzled. Why did he feel that Brother Nezha had become much more coy than the last time they met?
In other words, even more like a maiden?
Of course, he wasn’t talking about looks because, in terms of appearance, Nezha was indeed a maiden.
He was referring to certain behaviors and mannerisms.
