Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 838 - 744 Zhu Bajie’s Anomaly

Chapter 838 -744 Zhu Bajie’s Anomaly

“What happened just now? Why did you attack the Six-Eared Macaque? Don’t you recognize him?” Sun Wukong’s tone was already somewhat angry. Zhu Bajie hurriedly said, “No, Brother Monkey, my body was suddenly controlled and wouldn’t listen to me. I had originally agreed with Six-Ear to fight those Golden Armor men together!” The White Dragon and Sha Wujing echoed by nodding repeatedly, proving that Zhu Bajie was right. Sun Wukong looked at Zhu Bajie, then at Six-Ear, and then glanced at the Dragon Emperor and the others, remaining silent. In fact, Sun Wukong should have recognized the Dragon Emperor long ago, but since all five of them were clad in full golden armor, only revealing their eyes, and the armor had the effect of isolating their auras, neither Sun Wukong nor Sha Wujing could recognize them.

“Six-Ear. Listen to me, it was a misunderstanding just now, Bajie definitely didn’t do it on purpose, we have no malice towards you!” At this moment, Sun Wukong’s explanation seemed somewhat powerless. Six-Eared Macaque had almost believed Zhu Bajie’s words because he also began to suspect that his and Lin Xi’s memories might have been tampered with. However, now, despite his memories feeling slightly off, he had lost all trust in Zhu Bajie and the others. No matter what Sun Wukong said, the vigilance in Six-Eared Macaque’s eyes did not diminish in the slightest.

“Enough with the nonsense, do you think these tricks still work? If you want to fight, then let’s fight!” Despite saying this, Six-Eared Macaque did not order an attack. Right now, the enemy was strong, and forcing a fight probably wouldn’t end well. Meanwhile, the Dragon Emperor and the others made a quick decision. In the Dragon Emperor’s view, Six-Eared Macaque’s group were undoubtedly the enemies. Though the attitude of Zhu Bajie’s trio was unclear, seeing Sun Wukong, the Dragon Emperor realized they were likely following his orders. Although the Dragon Emperor did not have a deep connection with Sun Wukong, they had fought together before, so they were acquaintances. Judging by Sun Wukong’s expression, Six-Eared Macaque was also his acquaintance, meaning this fight was probably unnecessary.

The Dragon Emperor gently coughed as he removed his golden helmet. Sun Wukong immediately noticed this, and turned to see that the golden armored man was the Dragon Emperor, causing him to be extremely surprised. “Dragon Emperor? How, how is it you? Where did you go after the battle in the Patrolling Celestial World? How do you appear here now?” Since the Dragon Emperor led the Dragon Race away after the battle in the Patrolling Celestial World, Sun Wukong hadn’t seen him again. The Dragon Emperor looked intensely at Sun Wukong and said, “I led the Dragon Race to where we needed to go, Sun Wukong. We are acquaintances, though we have no deep ties, there is no enmity either. Moreover, I see you know this person too, so I think there’s no need for a fight.”

Sun Wukong immediately nodded in agreement, “That’s the best, avoiding a fight is naturally the best. To be honest, that person is my brother, but his memory has been tampered, so he doesn’t remember us. Don’t worry, with me here, I won’t let him oppose you. By the way, Dragon Emperor, are you here for that Eternity too?” To Sun Wukong’s question, the Dragon Emperor did not respond, just nodded in agreement, then glanced at the Six-Eared Macaque once more before turning to leave with Dragon Blood and Dragon Bone.

Having too few people has its disadvantage, there’s no way to face hard confrontation, they can only resort to sneaky tactics. Besides, the Dragon Emperor knew their main purpose for coming here wasn’t that Eternity. But just as the Dragon Emperor turned around, with his golden dragon wings barely unfolded, Zhu Bajie’s eyes next to Sun Wukong became dazed. Without hesitation, he turned around, and the Nine-Toothed Rake in his hands quietly turned flaming red, then swung fiercely down on the Dragon Emperor’s back, causing the Dragon Emperor to spew out a mouthful of golden blood in shock.

This scene stunned everyone again. If Zhu Bajie’s sudden attack on the Six-Eared Macaque could be explained as secretly helping the Dragon Emperor, his strike on the Dragon Emperor could not be justified. As the Dragon Emperor was struck by Zhu Bajie, the White Dragon and Sha Wujing’s eyes also became dazed, and both attacked Sun Wukong from either side. Though surprised by Zhu Bajie’s move, Sun Wukong quickly reacted, summoning black and white shadows from his body to block Sha Wujing and the White Dragon’s attacks.

“Dummy, what are you trying to do? Old Sha, White Dragon, what’s wrong with you?” Just as Sun Wukong spoke, his Heaven and Earth Fire Eyes saw something within Zhu Bajie’s body – an indistinct flame flickering. Inside Sha Wujing was a swirling mass of water, while inside the White Dragon, there was a small golden tree radiating brilliant light.

“This… Is this the power that Bajie said was controlling them?” Just as he finished speaking, Zhu Bajie quickly grabbed the falling Dragon Emperor and tried to escape. How could Sun Wukong let him escape? However, as he tried to chase, he was blocked by the White Dragon and Sha Wujing. Though Sun Wukong couldn’t pursue, Dragon Blood and Dragon Bone immediately chased after them. The Dragon Emperor was their clan leader, they couldn’t let him be taken. Meanwhile, the Six-Eared Macaque and others also took action to stop Zhu Bajie.

After Zhu Bajie attacked the Dragon Emperor, Lin Xi realized something was wrong with him, and after discussing with Six-Eared Macaque, they decided to catch Zhu Bajie. There was definitely something wrong with him, leading to the current situation. But just as Six-Eared Macaque’s group rushed forward, they were blocked by Dragon Blood and Dragon Bone. They couldn’t determine whose side Zhu Bajie was on, but Six-Eared Macaque was clearly the enemy. They wouldn’t allow him to catch Zhu Bajie. However, Dragon Li was sent to chase Zhu Bajie alone, ensuring they recovered the Dragon Emperor.

The situation quickly became chaotic. Zhu Bajie fled with the Dragon Emperor, followed by Dragon Li, while behind them were Jixin and Bi Hai. The Six-Eared Macaque, Lin Xi, Jing Potian, and Bu Yun were blocked by Dragon Bone and his men. Meanwhile, Sun Wukong was also held up by Sha Wujing and the White Dragon. But this chaos did not last long, as Xi Zhao’s sudden outburst made it even more chaotic. Originally, Xi Zhao was fighting Flame God passively due to the presence of the Nine Heavens Calm Dew in Flame God’s hands. Despite Xi Zhao’s caution, he accidentally came in contact with the dew, which had the power to strip a cultivator of all cultivation, the deadliest poison.

Thus, when Xi Zhao came into contact with the Nine Heavens Calm Dew, he immediately used his trump card, the Underworld God Transformation, which he had planned to save for the final battle. After receiving all of the Underworld Venerate’s inheritance, Xi Zhao’s strength had greatly increased. His greatest gain, however, was acquiring the Underworld God Transformation. He also learned from the Underworld Venerate’s inheritance that the version in the Annihilation Demon Nation was incomplete. Before the ancient battle began, the Underworld Venerate had made many arrangements.

First, he set two seals for himself. These seals would activate upon his death. One seal would separate his soul from his body. The second seal would send his soul and body to two altars he had prepared in advance. As for the Underworld Venerate’s purpose, that is a story for another time.

The two altars, one found after the ancient battle by the Crimson Army, which triggered on its own due to the Underworld Venerate’s arrangement, sending his soul elsewhere. The other altar, sealing the power of the Underworld Venerate’s body, was located in the former Annihilation Demon Nation, the one Xi Zhao later found. (To be continued.
