Journey to the West: Signing in for 500 Years-Chapter 621 - 615: In the Name of the Father [Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets]_1
Sha Chen bid farewell to Yao Yue.
The three Phoenix sisters gazed at Sha Chen with longing eyes, also desiring to leave the Flowing Sand River and experience the outside world.
It wasn't that they didn't want to be with Sha Chen—they longed to be with him forever.
However, they also knew that with their current strength, staying here wouldn't be much help to Sha Chen.
Only by becoming stronger and acquiring more resources could they truly be of assistance.
Otherwise, staying here would only be a drain on resources, burdening Sha Chen.
After all, to fend off Lord Yuan Shi, Sha Chen had consumed more than half of the Elixir and Immortal Herbs, which were now scarce in the land.
If they continued to stay, they would only become a burden, as they couldn't help in combat but would consume a great deal of food.
It seemed that Sha Chen also understood the Phoenix sisters' sentiments and didn't insist on them staying. According to his original plan, they were to leave once their strength reached the Quasi-Saint Realm. However, it had been delayed time and again. Now that they had attained the Intermediate Stage of the Semi-saint Realm, he really shouldn't hold them back any longer.
Letting them go to struggle for their own destiny in the Three Realms and Six Paths might be the better choice.
After all, I've never heard of a phoenix growing strong in a greenhouse.
Even though he was secluded here for cultivation, he was occasionally disturbed by others, and sparring with these challengers counted as his own form of experience.
The three Phoenix sisters had always cultivated here without opponents; inevitably, great deeds would be hard to achieve, and advancing further would be difficult.
Sha Chen said, "Have you sisters decided where you want to go?"
The sisters exchanged glances, surprised yet reluctant, hesitant and finding it difficult to decide.
Hong Luan rushed over, crying, "Daddy, are you sending us away? I can't bear to leave you."
Sha Chen said, "You've wanted to leave for a while now, and I too wish for you to make a name for yourselves outside, to carve out your own piece of heaven."
"Staying here is naturally pleasant, but it ultimately means remaining spinsters. Confining you here is not what I desire. Now that you have grown strong enough, it's time for you to venture out."
The three sisters knew that when Sha Chen spoke like this, he truly meant for them to leave. Their hearts filled with joy, but there was even more reluctance.
With teary eyes, Qing Luan said, "Daddy, when we go out there, we certainly won't tarnish your reputation. Once we've made a name for ourselves and established our own world, we'll proudly announce you as our father."
Sha Chen rolled his eyes. That won't be necessary. Fighting tooth and nail to make a name for themselves out there will inevitably offend countless people. If they drag my name into it, won't I be implicated too?
But how could he say such things to the sisters and dampen their spirits?
He said instead, "Go, and use my name as your backing. If anyone dares to bully you, announce my name loudly. If they still do not regard it, then crush them."
The sisters were overjoyed and extremely excited.
This was the first time they had received such recognition from Sha Chen and his permission to use his name to forge their own paths.
Seeing their excitement, Sha Chen worried they might actually do so, attracting huge trouble for him.
He quickly said, "But if you encounter difficult Saint-level powers or Peak Quasi-Saints, it's better to keep a low profile. It's not that I'm afraid of them, nor do I dread the hassle. Rather, your strength is too weak, and I'm worried you won't make it back for me to take up your cause."
The three sisters clasped their fists, knelt to the ground, and kowtowed three times to Sha Chen.
Qing Luan said, "Rest assured, Daddy, we won't cause you any trouble. But if others bring trouble to us, we won't let them off easily either."
Sha Chen nodded; that was indeed the right attitude to have.
"Remember, we don't seek out trouble, but we are not afraid of it either."
With Sha Chen's encouragement, the three sisters were full of fighting spirit, their momentum like a rainbow, ready to venture out into the Three Realms right away.
However, Sha Chen was still worried, so he divided some Magical Tools and Immortal Pills among them, just in case.
Then he personally escorted the three sisters to the Demon World.
After opening a space channel and sending them there, Sha Chen suddenly sensed a burgeoning demonic energy in the Demon World, along with a familiar aura.
At this moment, in the Demon World, Zhao Gongming was leading celestial soldiers to besiege the Bull Demon King and his son. Both parties had engaged in fierce combat, neither giving ground to the other.
The Bull Demon King's family had risen to power in the Demon World, gaining great notoriety and openly forming factions to challenge the Heavenly Court.
Originally, Zhao Gongming was supposed to capture only Red Boy, but how could the Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan allow Zhao Gongming to capture their son?
Moreover, Red Boy had quickly become more powerful with a group of skilled friends around him, a clear indication of Sha Chen's guidance.
The Bull Demon King was a very astute man, understanding the importance of timing and situational assessment.
He had previously clashed with Sha Chen and knew of Sha Chen's deep affection for his son, recognizing Sha Chen as a person with great prospects.
He had been observing for several hundred years. But now, as the great calamity of the Journey to the West approached, Sha Chen's achievements became increasingly formidable. His reputation soared, and his name became known to everyone.
He had defeated Xianglong Arhat and Maitreya Buddha. Furthermore, he had driven Tathagata Buddha and Saint Zhunti from the Flowing Sand River Cave. These feats were a testament to his might.
He had fostered a host of powerful followers, and anyone associated with him became rich or noble, their strengths improving by leaps and bounds.
Such a person, with great fortune and tremendous strength, was bound to stand out from the ordinary, with limitless prospects.
Together with Red Boy constantly singing his praises, and Princess Iron Fan's immense love and indulgence for her son, it was natural for her to side with her child.
The Bull Demon King also received from Red Boy a ginseng fruit and a flat peach, as well as Immortal Pills made from willow trees and Sweet Dew Jade Liquid.
This resulted in a reawakening of his latent talents, giving rise to a second prime of life. His strength soared. He had now reached the Intermediate Stage of Semi-saint and was on the cusp of entering the High-rank Quasi Saint Realm.
Benefiting from others' generosity often incurs a sense of obligation. Having received Sha Chen's favors for his entire family, the Bull Demon King naturally sided with Sha Chen.
Nevertheless, he did not publicly declare his complete allegiance to Sha Chen. However, in the Demon World, he was using his reputation and prestige to protect individuals like the Black Bear Spirit.
In fact, beings like the Black Bear Spirit had already reached the Peak of Da Luo Golden Immortal or the Quasi-Saint Realm and did not need the Bull Demon King's protection.
If the Heavenly Court wanted to deal with the Black Bear Spirit and the others, they would have to invest immense manpower and resources, dispatching countless experts, just for a chance to harm them.
Despite their rapid increase in strength, these beings had weak foundations in the Demon World, with few followers.
They could only use the Bull Demon King's influence to rally demon soldiers and build their own forces.
Consequently, the Demon World was almost unifying into a solid block.
To strike against these individuals, the Heavenly Court naturally targeted the Bull Demon King's family, who were at the forefront.
