save the bachelors

Chapter 4987 4990 [Hou Yi Shoots the Sun]

Xiang Nan, Erniu and Taibai Jinxing arrived at the South Gate of Heaven and saw that there was a guard post every five steps and a sentry post every ten steps. There were guards standing in rows with bright armor, looking mighty and majestic.

For a moment, Erniu was a little scared.

"Don't be afraid, it's okay." Xiang Nan comforted him when he saw this.

"Thank you, brother." Erniu nodded.

"Taibai Jinxing, are you here?" At this time, a man with an eye on his forehead came up and asked, "Who is the reincarnation of Houyi?"

"This Erniu is the reincarnation of Houyi." Taibai Jinxing laughed, "Haha, his name is Erniu, and your name is Erlang Shen. You both have the surname Er, so you were one family five hundred years ago."

When Erlang Shen heard this, he looked at the timid and stupid Erniu standing beside him and said with disdain, "Humph, do you also deserve the surname Er?~"

"You~" Erniu couldn't help feeling angry at being looked down upon by him, but he had always been honest and poorly eloquent, so he really didn't know how to refute for a moment.

"Okay, let's get down to business." Xiang Nan said, "Didn't the Jade Emperor say he wanted to see us?"

"Yes, yes, please!" Taibai Jinxing said with a smile, and then brought Xiang Nan and Erniu to the Bronze Sparrow Tower.

The Bronze Sparrow Tower was also heavily guarded, with the Heavenly Soldiers and the Four Heavenly Kings on standby, and the atmosphere was solemn. Er Niu was so scared that he trembled, "God, I want to pee~"

"Don't be afraid, it's okay." Xiang Nan comforted him.

In the center of the Bronze Sparrow Tower, there was a man and a woman sitting upright. The man was dignified and solemn, while the woman had a kind look.

"Greetings to the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother~" Taibai Jinxing stepped forward and saluted, "Houyi's reincarnation Erniu and the East Sea Wanderer Zhu Bajie are here!"

"Who is the reincarnation of Hou Yi?" The Jade Emperor asked, "Come, please let us immortals see your divine power."

When Taibai Jinxing heard this, he immediately pushed Erniu out and said, "Come on, go ahead."

"What are you doing?" Erniu asked puzzledly.

"Go over there and get the bow and arrow to shoot the sun~" Taibai Jinxing pointed at the bow and arrow set up on the stage.

"Ah?! I am most afraid of bows and arrows. I feel dizzy when I see them." Erniu waved his hands quickly.

"Do you want to disappoint me? I have to shoot you even if you feel dizzy!" said the Jade Emperor coldly.

Erniu had no choice but to walk forward tremblingly and come to the set up bow and arrow.

The bow and arrow was emitting precious light, and it was obvious at first glance that it was a rare treasure.

Erniu couldn't help swallowing his saliva, then he mustered up his courage and reached for the bow and arrow.

……

"I dare to bet with you that this kid can never pull the Sun-Shooting Bow or the Sky-Shaking Arrow." Upon seeing this, Erlang Shen whispered to Taibai Jinxing.

"Okay, I'll make a bet with you." Taibai Jinxing thought for a moment, nodded and said, "If I win, I'll give your Roaring Sky Dog to you to stew into dog meat."

"Okay, a gentleman's word is as good as gold." Erlang Shen agreed immediately.

Erniu had already grabbed the Sun-Shooting Bow. He lifted it with all his strength, but the bow didn't move at all.

"Tsk tsk~" Erlang Shen couldn't help but let out a sound of contempt when he saw this.

Seeing this, Erniu could only raise both hands, grab the Sun-Shooting Bow, and use all his strength to lift it, "Hey~"

He shouted loudly, and finally moved the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow. But that was all, with his strength, he couldn't hold it up at all, and was immediately crushed by the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow and fell to the ground, unable to move.

"Haha, is this Hou Yi's reincarnation?" Erlang Shen couldn't help laughing. Taibai Jinxing couldn't help grinning when he saw this. He didn't expect Erniu to be so useless that he couldn't even lift the Sun-shooting Bow, let alone shoot the sun?

"Nonsense! Come on, drag him away and chop him off." The Jade Emperor couldn't help but get angry when he saw Erniu was so incompetent and behaved so cowardly, so he immediately gave the order.

"Your Majesty, please calm down and show mercy. If we kill Erniu, no one will be able to shoot down the sun." Taibai Jinxing was shocked when he heard this and hurriedly stepped forward to plead for mercy.

"Hmph! Looking at his appearance, he doesn't look like he can shoot the sun." The Jade Emperor said coldly.

It’s difficult to hold a bow, how can you shoot the sun?
“Your Majesty, this Erniu really has the strength of nine oxen and two tigers, but it’s a pity that he drank the love potion before his reincarnation, so he can’t use his strength.” At this time, an old man with a kind face stepped forward and said.

"Then Laojun, what do you think we should do?" The Jade Emperor asked upon hearing this.

"There is a person who can help him restore his memory and regain his divine power." Taishang Laojun said immediately.

"Oh?! Who are you talking about?" The Jade Emperor asked hurriedly.

"It's Hou Yi's wife, Chang'e." Taishang Laojun replied, "As long as we ask the fairy Chang'e to help Erniu regain his power."

After hearing what he said, everyone present looked at each other, and the atmosphere became very ambiguous for a moment.

Xiang Nan knew that Chang'e was loved by everyone in heaven because of her unparalleled beauty, and even the Jade Emperor was eyeing her.

Now, according to what Taishang Laojun said, Chang'e needs to sacrifice herself for Erniu in order to awaken his memory and regain his divine power. Naturally, none of the immortals present wanted to agree.

……

"Is this the only way?" The Jade Emperor pondered, "Oh, right, didn't someone in the East China Sea say that he has a way to subdue the second sun?"

"Your Majesty is absolutely right. This is the East China Sea Wanderer Zhu Bajie." Taibai Jinxing hurriedly introduced.

"Zhu Bajie pays his respects to the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, and wishes Your Majesty and the Queen longevity and health." Xiang Nan stepped forward and saluted.

"You are Zhu Bajie?!" The Jade Emperor looked Xiang Nan up and down, "I heard that you have a way to subdue the second sun?"

"My star harvester can indeed weaken the second sun." Xiang Nan nodded, "but it can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause."

The Star Harvester can convert the energy of the second sun into energy batteries, thereby reducing its harm to the human world. However, it cannot completely destroy the second sun.

Because this second sun could only be shot down by Hou Yi. This was destiny.

In the world of "The Legend of the White Snake", destiny is above everything, and even the Jade Emperor cannot change it.

"If that's the case, let's do it this way first." The Jade Emperor nodded and said, "It would be great if it can be weakened. As long as the world is not scorched, what difference does it make whether there is one sun or two suns in the sky?"

He didn't want Chang'e to have a relationship with Erniu because he already regarded Chang'e as his exclusive lover.

When she heard him say this, the Queen Mother immediately showed an angry expression.

She naturally understood what the Jade Emperor was thinking, but she didn't want her husband to think about Chang'e every day.

"Your Majesty, the laws of nature are eternal. There is no two suns in the sky, no two rulers for the people, no two kings for the country, and no two masters for the family." Upon hearing this, Taishang Laojun immediately advised, "If you don't shoot down the second sun, ethics and moral principles will have no basis, and I'm afraid that the world will be in chaos, and even threaten your rule."

When the Jade Emperor heard this, he immediately calmed down.

Compared to beauty, his position as the Jade Emperor is naturally more important.

"Forget it. In that case, let's arrange for Houyi to shoot the sun." The Jade Emperor pondered for a moment and nodded.

"Your Majesty, you see it clearly." Taishang Laojun bowed and saluted.
