Journey to the West: Starting by taking Sun Wukong as my disciple!-Chapter 177: Ganging Up to Bully the Dog

"Aren’t you supposed to follow in this commander’s footsteps? Without Magical Treasure, you won’t be able to keep eating at Chaos Residence, your strength will increase slowly, and sooner or later you’ll be left far behind."

"Maybe by then, even Xiaotian Dog’s cultivation will surpass yours. How will you follow in this commander’s footsteps then? Let’s get this straight, those who can follow this commander mustn’t be weak in strength!"

Tian Peng lifted his head at a 45-degree angle, his face showing a few traces of the loneliness of the invincible, and he spoke in all seriousness.

Right!

Xiong Daoren’s Mind and Spirit were greatly shaken. He had to follow in Peng’s footsteps, so how could he fall behind in strength?

The deliciousness of the dishes at Chaos Residence and that miraculous power, how could he forget?

"I got it, Peng!" Xiong Daoren, invigorated, immediately replied.

His heart was filled with even greater joy. The reason Peng could say such things must be because he saw potential in him. He must not disappoint Peng.

"Why are you dragging this lord into your conversation?" Xiaotian Dog looked askance, barking very dissatisfied.

What does it mean, ’Maybe surpassed by him’? If he, Xiaotian, surpassed them, would it be that disgraceful?

Now that he had merged with a higher pedigree bloodline and his cultivation aptitude had improved, with the help of Shopkeeper Chen’s dishes, becoming the strongest dog was inevitable, wasn’t it?

Xiaotian Dog now had this confidence, precisely because of the confidence Shopkeeper Chen of Chaos Residence had given him.

Seeing that the man and bear didn’t pay him any attention, Xiaotian Dog felt a strong sense of defeat and shook his head in frustration.

He breathed heavily through his nose. Today you ignore this lord, but tomorrow this lord will be out of your reach.

Xiaotian’s fighting spirit soared, already envisioning the day he’d have his fill of beating Tian Peng.

Three hundred years on one side of the river, three hundred years on the other, do not bully a poor dog!

Xiaotian Dog silently chanted his own slogan.

"Come on, follow this commander into the cave!" Tian Peng waved his hand grandly.

He could now be considered to truly have his own trusted subordinates.

In the Milky Way, though he commanded a hundred thousand naval forces, how many of them were truly convinced by him? It’s the quality of people that counts, not the quantity.

In Tian Peng’s eyes, the ability and value of Xiong Daoren, a single bear, far outweighed those hundred thousand naval forces!

Tian Peng restrained some of his strength and did not destroy the door with one blow.

In the Three Realms, the door of a cave abode can signify a cultivator’s dignity.

The cultivation level of this Cave Master must be at least that of a Daluo Golden Immortal. If they really angered him, it’d be all over.

They have their own code of conduct for theft and do not commit robbery like bandits.

"Hold on a second, Peng!" Xiong Daoren suddenly spoke up to stop him, hurrying to the front!

"I think it would be safer for each of us to set up an Invisibility Formation," Xiong Daoren proposed.

Hearing this, Tian Peng nodded and gave Xiong Daoren an approving look. Indeed, that was the case.

Many who are good at plotting, even if just in the Great Luo State, can deduce the ins and outs of some matters through calculation.

Like, who stole their own cave abode, and then they’d be hunted down by the powerhouses of the Three Realms!

Luckily, they hadn’t started yet.

Unexpectedly, Xiong Daoren was so cautious.

"Not bad. I deliberately didn’t mention this matter because I wanted to test your meticulousness and steadiness. It seems that I haven’t misjudged you," Tian Peng said, patting Xiong Daoren’s shoulder in encouragement, boasting quite naturally.

"Keep working hard. Follow me closely and learn well. Sooner or later, you will catch up to my figure."

Xiaotian Dog, listening to these words, displayed a speechless look on his canine face. When it comes to boasting, he didn’t acknowledge anyone’s skills except Tian Peng’s.

"Yes!"

Xiong Daoren nodded vigorously. Having been praised by Tian Peng, the whole bear was overjoyed.

Catch up to his figure. He hadn’t expected Peng to have such high expectations of him. He must not let him down!

Peng’s praise just now meant to be careful, right?

A sharp glint flashed in Xiong Daoren’s eyes.

It seems that in the future, he would definitely have to develop more in this particular area!

Xiong Daoren waved his horsetail whisk and began to display his Divine Skills, setting up the formation.

Shortly after.

"Okay, now you can enter, Peng," Xiong Daoren called out.

Tian Peng walked a few steps, tried to sense something, but didn’t notice anything at all.

With a light cough, Tian Peng pretended to be profound and said, "Who would’ve thought you’d know this formation too."

Peng knows it too?

Xiong Daoren keenly picked up on the underlying meaning in Tian Peng’s words.

That’s right!

Watching Tian Peng’s calm and indifferent demeanor, Xiong Daoren understood and a sense of admiration rose within him.

With Peng’s wisdom and martial prowess, how could he not know about something as trivial as an Invisibility Formation?

The more Xiong Daoren thought about it, the more he believed this to be the case.

Gratefully nodding, Xiong Daoren played along by saying, "Peng, you truly have a discerning eye!"

"This Invisibility Formation is small in scope, portable, and its effects are extraordinary. It’s most suitable for our current situation!"

As he spoke, Xiong Daoren went on to explain in detail.

Because he knew Peng must be fully familiar with it, and his own words were merely to verify his thinking with Peng.

"You’ve done well," Tian Peng mused and nodded theatrically.

In his heart, though, he felt somewhat uneasy. Where did he understand any of this?

But how could he show weakness in front of Black Bear Demon, who admired him and acted as his flunky? He could only bluff and respond, "Daoren, your analysis regarding its use and the actual situation is very clear keep it up."

"Yes!" Xiong Daoren immediately straightened his posture, showing a solemn attitude.

This was Peng’s encouragement and warning to him. He must not get carried away by momentary success.

Xiaotian Dog: "..."

He didn’t even know what to say anymore.

Tian Peng didn’t understand anything about formations. Once while treasure hunting, they encountered a small natural Illusion Array.

Without realizing it, they walked in circles for an entire day until he used his Divine Skills to find a way out.

And now Tian Peng was still here playing the big shot!

Xiaotian Dog was infuriated, but there was nothing he could do. Even if he exposed Tian Peng, it would be in vain.

The dumb bear Xiong Daoren had long been charmed by Tian Peng into obedient compliance, and even if Xiaotian Dog pointed it out directly, Xiong Daoren would probably find a way to justify it for Tian Peng. He had tried this before.

What kind of Miraculous Elixir had Tian Peng fed to this dumb bear? There was no way out.

After setting up a formation for Tian Peng, Xiong Daoren also set up one for himself.

"Peng, let’s go!" Xiong Daoren signaled to Tian Peng that everything was ready, and it was time to start the treasure hunt.

And there stood Xiaotian Dog, looking puzzled and waiting for a formation of his own, thinking, what about me?

Watching the figures of Tian Peng and Xiong Daoren about to enter the cave abode, Xiaotian Dog shouted, "Hey! I don’t have a formation yet?! I’m still without a formation!"

Xiaotian Dog became so anxious that he stood up on his hind legs, paws spread out in frustration, his entire dog attitude collapsing.

This damn bear ignored him, but it shouldn’t be to this extent. He was indispensable to the team, wasn’t he? Without him, how would they find the treasures?

"Bring him along," Tian Peng ordered, and then slyly winked at Xiaotian Dog.

Little guy, always trying to show off with us, now you’ve met your match!

Tian Peng was growing fonder of Xiong Daoren the more he watched he was on the right track!

Xiaotian Dog caught Tian Peng’s mocking expression and instantly felt a surge of anger.
