The Monkey King

"Peach...?" Tianguan Zeng Yun's eyes couldn't help but narrowed slightly.

He had thought that Huaguoshan would ask for skills, elixirs, a promise not to attack, and even gold essences for weapons, but this request was obviously beyond everyone's expectations. But judging from the monkey's attitude, it didn't look like he was joking.

After thinking carefully, Zeng Yun laughed twice, straightened up slightly and said loudly: "The Monkey King is really quick to talk. Speaking of which, as one of the four kings of Nantianmen, Guangmu Tianwang is naturally not comparable to just one or two flat peaches. ,only……"

He paused slightly, looked at the monkey, and said seriously: "I'm afraid the Monkey King doesn't know? The flat peach garden is under the control of the Queen Mother of the West, and can only be picked during each flat peach gathering. Every god and guest present can be divided according to their grade. No matter how much you get, it’s all determined. It’s not something you can get easily.”

"Really?" The monkey crossed his legs and leaned crookedly on the throne. He reached out and took out his ears and said, "This is your own business. I only know that I have lost a lot of money by exchanging the Guangmu Heavenly King for the flat peach. It's a fire sale. If he loses again, I would rather let him die in prison."

The monkey looked indifferent, but Zeng Yun smiled back.

"Monkey King. I have to remind you that this visit was sent by King Li Jing, King of Tota, in mind of King Guangmu's past hard work. If the capture of King Guangmu is exposed... don't talk about the Heavenly Court. , that is, in the mortal world, it is destiny for a warrior to die on the battlefield, and there is absolutely no reason to exchange anything for it. If this is possible, then in the future, wouldn't all monsters in the world be able to capture the heavenly warriors and threaten them? So, if The Monkey King really wants to reach an agreement and get some benefits. Please change the name."

Say it. He rolled his sleeves. Watch the monkey carefully with your peripheral vision.

Is this the bottom line?

The monkey stretched out his hand to touch his chin, thought for a while, and then asked: "Then what does King Li Tian want to give in exchange for King Guangmu? Isn't it just a waste of money?"

"What the King of Heaven wants is to allow Huaguo Mountain to be safe for half a year. No matter how long it takes, it will be useless even if it is promised."

"Half a year?" The monkey chuckled and gently stroked the walking stick at his hand. He looked at Zeng Yun meaningfully: "Half a year of peace and tranquility, I need his permission? How is this different from a white wolf with empty gloves?"

Zeng Yun slowly turned his face and sighed lightly: "I would like to advise you, the Monkey King should understand the principle of giving up when you are ready, and don't be overconfident in yourself. You know, you can wipe out all 10,000 of my Nantianmen army." , such a serious crime, if King Li hadn't thought of his past friendship with King Guangmu, and had already pressed down the army with one fell swoop to level Huaguo Mountain, how could I have allowed you to stand here and waste words with the Monkey King? Such an arrangement is already a gift. Don't do it. If you miss it, it’s better to regret it.”

"The soldiers meet each other. Each is his own master. Where are the sins and faults? The special envoy was joking." The monkey slowly stood up and walked down the throne step by step with the cloud stick in hand. He came to the special envoy and walked around him. Turning in circles, he said leisurely: "In this case, you reply to your king Li Tianwang and say, I only want flat peaches, and not just one. I want hundreds of flat peaches! And all of them must be old. If not... Guangmu The King of Heaven asked him not to worry about it anymore."

Zeng Yun was stunned for a moment, sneered and said: "A hundred? The Monkey King is really a lion with his mouth open."

"This is not a big deal. This is a clear price, and there is no discount. If King Li Tianwang doesn't agree, there is no need to continue the negotiation."

Zeng Yun listened expressionlessly and didn't answer, as if he was speculating on something.

"As for -!" After walking around Zeng Yun, the monkey stopped and continued: "Whether Huaguo Mountain is safe or not depends not on his promise from King Li Tian, ​​but on the stick in my hand. I want to fight , just come."

After saying that, the corner of the monkey's mouth raised slightly, he stared at Zeng Yun, who was turning purple for a while, and laughed, and said word by word: "You said that, right?"

The corner of Zeng Yun's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but feel doubtful in his heart.

He himself is only in the realm of refining gods and cannot see through the monkey's cultivation level. But this is the first time I have seen such an arrogant monster. Don’t you know the consequences of angering the heavenly host?

He was told to be safe for half a year, but in fact he was told to pack up his bags and get out quickly, leaving a group of demons in Huaguo Mountain to beheaded by the heavenly army to fill in the numbers. To put it bluntly, it means letting him go temporarily. In the future, a wanted warrant will be issued, and it will be up to everyone to decide whether they can be traced.

Such conditions are already a great gift. Not even let heaven know.

This monkey should have understood, but he still made such a request? Doesn't he know that apart from the severity of the crime, whether the heavenly army takes it seriously or not is the key. If Li Jing is angered, he can be found even by digging three feet into the ground. Then, unless he can collude with other powerful demons like the six demon kings in Hezhou, Xiniu, no one can save him.

And even the six demon kings are currently facing the conquest of the Tianhe Navy Army, and are in a worrying situation.

Before he could figure out the other party's intention, the monkey had turned around and greeted the monsters carelessly: "See you off."

At the command, several monsters had already moved towards Zeng Yun and wanted to force him out of the water curtain cave.

Seeing this, Zeng Yun quickly shouted: "Slow down!"

"What? Is there anything else?" Monkey turned back with a smile.

Hearing the sound, the monsters stopped.

Zeng Yun stood in the center of the hall, hesitating.

From his standpoint, he naturally hopes to reach an agreement to rescue King Guangmu, but now the demon king's demands have far exceeded the authority Li Jing gave him before leaving, and he doesn't want to let go at all.

In this case, there is really no need to talk any more. However, there is still one thing unfinished on this trip.

Zeng Yun cupped his hands towards the monkey and said: "Monkey King, before I leave, King Li Tian has told me that when I arrive at Huaguo Mountain, I must see King Guangmu. I also ask the Monkey King to make it happen. After all, if you can't see it, then in the future, , not to mention flat peaches, there is no need to talk about the rest."

The monkey naturally understood what Zeng Yun meant. Li Jing wanted to confirm whether Guangmu was still alive.

After thinking for a while, the monkey smiled and said: "Okay! Since you are here, I will take you for a walk as a landlord."

After saying that, he stretched out his hand and put it on Zeng Yun's shoulder.

This act of intimacy instantly frightened Zeng Yun out of his wits.

The two escorting generals behind him were also stunned, and they quickly held their swords in one hand and were about to take action. But before they could draw their swords. He was already swarmed by monsters on the left and right and subdued.

This sudden scene obviously frightened Zeng Yun.

His eyes widened. He saw that the two God Refining Realm generals who had escorted him were disarmed and fell to the ground in an instant, screaming. His entire face turned pale.

"Ignore them, let's go."

As if the scene in front of him had never happened, the monkey hooked Zeng Yun's shoulders as if nothing had happened and pulled him towards the dungeon in a semi-hostile manner.

At this time, Zeng Yun was so frightened that he was trembling and speechless.

The monsters who have been waiting on both sides, who appear to be only at the Nashen realm, actually turn out to be at the God refining realm or above!

It seems that the general who was sent back was not frightened and talking nonsense. There are really many monsters above the God Refining Realm here!

He began to realize. This is no ordinary monster force. King Guangmu's defeat and capture was by no means as simple as being careless and underestimating the enemy as King Li had speculated.

Being dragged along by the monkey, they soon reached the entrance of the dungeon.

Heizi, who happened to be standing outside the dungeon discussing something with the little demon, quickly bowed and opened the door for them.

As soon as he entered the dungeon, Zeng Yun was stunned and his eyes widened.

The naked Guangmu Tianwang was covered in injuries and his limbs were missing. He was left in a dark and damp cage and squirmed like a worm. Even that face was disfigured. If it weren't for his iconic skin color, Zeng Yun wouldn't be able to recognize him at all.

It only took Zeng Yun a moment to understand that these could not be scars left in the battle. But...

He looked at the monkey in horror, but saw that the monkey was still smiling. His gaze slowly tilted towards him.

Their eyes met for just a moment, and Zeng Yun suddenly felt that there was a hint of unimaginable cruelty in his eyes. He couldn't help but tremble with his hands, and suddenly felt uncomfortable all over.

Seeing Zeng Yun swallowing dryly and shrinking his head slightly, Monkey's hand tightened and held Zeng Yun tightly to his side. He stared at him and said slowly: "What? Isn't it what you want to see?"

At this moment, the two people's faces were only one foot away from each other. At such a close distance, Zeng Yun suddenly felt that the monkey's seemingly friendly smile turned into an extremely ferocious one, which made the old face twitch in fear.

After holding it in for a long time, he trembled slightly and avoided the monkey's gaze, and said: "Monkey, Monkey King... is this not good for you? You are abusing prisoners of war, this is really..."

Before he could finish speaking, Guangmu Tianwang, who was crawling in the cage, suddenly raised his head, saw Zeng Yun, and shouted suddenly: "Zeng Yun, save me! Save me -!"

Zeng Yun was still trembling and did not dare to look at Guangmu. His breathing became more and more rapid. He turned sideways and cupped his hands and said: "King Guangmu... Zeng Yun will definitely do his best. Please wait a moment, King Guangmu."

"Zeng Yun, you must ask King Li to save me. This monkey is not a human, he will kill me! You must help me ask King Li to save me! When I get out of this cage, I will thank you profusely!"

The hoarse cry fell into Zeng Yun's heart, causing a convulsion.

Ignoring the howl of King Guangmu, the monkey held Zeng Yun in his arms and walked back step by step. He asked with a smile: "What is your name Zeng Yun?"

"Yes...yes." Zeng Yun, who was still in shock, nodded tremblingly.

"Earlier you said that I abused prisoners of war... Well, I admit that I abused prisoners of war. I also know that this is not a good habit, but you have to know that I am just a monkey, a monkey who lives in a ravine and has never seen the world. . Do you want to ask so much from a monkey? Besides, I didn’t get the flat peach. I’m in a bad mood, so I inevitably need a place to vent my anger. Although we are not on the same side, you can understand this kind of thing, right? "

Zeng Yun bit his lip, clenched his fists, trembling, and remained silent.

"But don't worry, before King Li Tian clearly rejects my request, I will try my best to control my temper and prevent King Guang Mu from losing his life. However, if he really refuses... I can assure you, Don't expect to get the soul of King Guangmu. Please tell Li Jing truthfully about this matter. Colleagues, King Guangmu has just made such a sincere request to you, but don't waste the good opportunity of rescue. Do you agree?"

The monkey stretched its neck and grinned at Zeng Yun.

Zeng Yun's smile made Zeng Yun's skin crawl, and his teeth almost broke. (To be continued...)
