Me and countless me.

Chapter 576 Sun Wukong's Old Sins
Li Ke's words made a lot of sense, but after his initial shock, the monkey revealed a secret technique of the Hyuga clan—

Roll your eyes!

"So, Master, why did you kill Baihua Xiu?"

Although Li Ke spouted a lot of grand principles that were quite misleading, such as talking about gray, grand aspirations, and saving all living beings, none of them answered his original question.

"Well... it's because I don't want to leave any future problems for the Tang Dynasty's rule here. After all, we still need to leave some nobles to handle local affairs. Leaving the royal bloodline behind could easily cause trouble. And most importantly, don't you think it's a bit cruel to separate them?"

Li Ke spread out his hands.

"Knowing full well that Kui Mulang intends to reincarnate, isn't it a form of compassion to allow the couple to reincarnate simultaneously and reunite? After all, it's better to tear down ten temples than to break up one marriage. Our world is a world of reincarnation, so for them, this is already the best ending."

Sun Wukong remained silent for a while, because from a certain perspective, there really wasn't anything wrong with it. As long as Kui Mulang could cultivate back to become an immortal, then it wouldn't be a big deal for him to become an immortal again with Baihua Xiu.

Moreover, Kui Mulang in this world is a demon who has become an immortal. It would indeed be a good thing for him to walk the path of cultivation again and become a legitimate human cultivator.

As for the Jade Emperor, seeing that Kui Mulang had admitted his mistake, he wouldn't be too harsh and would turn a blind eye. Therefore, there was no possibility that Kui Mulang would be unable to return to the path of immortality and continue to wallow in worldly desires with Baihua Xiu.

It's important to understand that the celestial realm doesn't forbid gods from falling in love, but rather from marrying each other. Many gods ascend to heaven with their wives and children; otherwise, where would the saying "even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven" come from? Therefore, as long as you are prepared to bear the consequences, no one will object to you striking up a relationship with the gods around you.

However, most immortals don't have that kind of courage.

"Then why do you have to act like a villain? It's like you're the one bullying Kui Mulang."

Sun Wukong still didn't understand, while Li Ke simply spread his hands.

"Do you prefer laughter or tragedy? If I kill Baihuaxiu with a sorrowful expression, how will the atmosphere in Kui Mulang's heart be? But if I kill Baihuaxiu with a laugh and a ridiculous attitude and reason, and people say that Jin Chanzi is really inhuman, the perception of things will change, and the consequences will fall on my head, allowing them to travel light and avoid blame beyond what they deserve."

Wukong remained silent for a while. Although he felt it was normal for his master to have such compassion, his sometimes overly keen intuition had still harmed him.

The traveler looked at Li Ke with a serious expression.

"speak English."

In response, Li Ke covered her cheek with her hand and answered Sun Wukong with a subtle smile.

"Oh dear, Wukong, sometimes being too perceptive isn't a good thing."

But immediately afterward, before Sun Wukong could change his mind, he answered without hesitation.

"It's fun. Besides, a repentant Kui Mulang wouldn't tolerate me torturing Baihua Xiu, so from the beginning, the idea of ​​me torturing her was nonexistent, and..."

Li Ke clasped his hands together in prayer.

"Do you think Baihua Xiu awakened her past life memories, or not? Did she distance herself from Kui Mulang because she disliked him, or because she loved him? Would killing her be a relief for her, a way to keep it a secret from him, and to fulfill their love? Or would it leave her with unresolved grievances?"

Sun Wukong: "………………"

The monkey curled his lip, immediately realizing that Baihua Xiu had probably already regained her past memories, but hadn't revealed them for Kui Mulang's sake, which had led to countless grievances. Their child was likely also imbued with demonic energy because of this. He also understood that his master had probably already seen into Baihua Xiu's heart using his telepathic abilities and divine vision, which was why he had made such an arrangement.

This series of seemingly capricious actions were actually all for the purpose of sending Baihuaxiu back into the cycle of reincarnation in a righteous manner, to settle her karmic debts, so that Baihuaxiu and Kui Mulang could atone for their sins and continue their past relationship without any grudges.

If Baihuaxiu no longer loved Kui Mulang, her master probably wouldn't have done what he did, nor would he have killed her directly.

The claim that it was to eliminate future troubles for the Tang Dynasty is probably just a pretext.

However, this was an arrangement made by Li Ke using his great abilities to find all the intelligence and then from a god-like perspective. But he was completely confused, so his senses were very poor, and he couldn't help but complain.

"You powerful people are really annoying, you don't give others any privacy at all."

Li Ke paused for a moment upon hearing this, because other Li Kes had also complained in the same way, and then burst into laughter.

"After all, if you have the ability to be thorough in every aspect, you should be thorough in every aspect. As the saying goes, if you're going to help someone, help them to the end. If you're going to help someone, help them to the end. Let's leave it at that... Also, Wukong, the mistakes you made are coming to your door."

He stood up and looked into the distance.

"As for what it is, you can figure it out yourself, but we should set off now. Let's go back and prepare for the next calamity."

Li Ke's words made the monkey scratch his head. He felt that his master must have seen something again, otherwise he wouldn't have said such things to him. So he couldn't help but think about the wrong things he had done. Then he suddenly realized that he had made quite a few mistakes during the time when he had achieved great success in his studies!
For a moment, I didn't even know which of my bad deeds had brought about this terrible consequence.

But at that very moment, not far from Baoxiang Kingdom, in a place called Pingding Mountain, a monster with golden horns on its head looked at its younger brother with silver horns on his head.

"Have you found out? Is it that Jin Chanzi who's here? He really is here?!"

Silver Horn King shuddered and then nodded to his brother.

"That's right! Brother! The person who came is none other than Jin Chanzi, who sat and discussed the Dao with Master three hundred years ago! Moreover, judging from his magical powers, he is even stronger than before his reincarnation! Not only that, I heard from those little demons that his eldest disciple is none other than Sun Wukong, who made a great disturbance in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago, his second disciple is Erlang Shen Yang Jian from Guanjiang Estuary, and his third disciple is Nezha, the Great God of the Three Altars and Seas!"

Upon hearing this, Golden Horn fell silent. After thinking for a while, he looked at his younger brother, Silver Horn.

"Do you think we can still avenge the master?"

They secretly disobeyed their master's orders and came down to earth to bring Tang Sanzang a tribulation; they even came down with an ox.

Not only that, they also had a small mission: to teach Sun Wukong a lesson.

Sun Wukong ate Laozi's elixir, and so much of it. Although it was nothing to Laozi, and Laozi never explicitly said he wanted to deal with Sun Wukong, a subject should die for his master. As a servant, Laozi was bullied, and the elixir he was guarding was eaten. In the end, Sun Wukong escaped from the alchemy furnace and knocked Laozi down.

As a servant, it can no longer be said that they were derelict in their duties; some even say that they were disloyal to Laozi!

Therefore, as the Golden Horn King and Silver Horn King, they absolutely cannot let Sun Wukong go. If they don't teach Sun Wukong a good lesson, they would be unworthy of their status as Laozi's attendants!
Moreover, they were the aggrieved party who came to the Jade Emperor's door, so even if it came to the Jade Emperor, they were in the right!

After hearing what King Golden Horn said, King Silver Horn remained silent for a while before speaking.

"Because we know that it was this Jin Chanzi who led Tang Sanzang on his journey to the West, and that we haven't done anything evil since we descended to the mortal realm, and have even brought blessings to our communities, as long as we only cause trouble for Sun Wukong, Jin Chanzi won't have anything to say. It's impossible that he would unleash that extremely ferocious Buddhist first killing move, the Buddha's Decapitation Blade, on us as soon as we meet them!"

King Golden Horn nodded and looked in the direction of the Kingdom of Treasure Elephant.

At this moment, the destiny of Baoxiang Kingdom has changed. It is no longer the prosperous kingdom it once was, but has instead become the destiny of the Tang Dynasty.

Thinking of what Laozi had once told Li Ke, King Golden Horn sighed.

Jin Chanzi wanted the Tang Dynasty to rule the entire world, standardize writing and cart axles, continuously improve the morality and productivity of the people in this world, and eventually achieve the conditions for universal salvation.

At the very least, it can reduce the energy expenditure for these powerful beings to travel to the next world with these people.

Laozi neither approved nor opposed his plan, since it did not conflict with his own plans. Moreover, Laozi was quite fond of the Li Tang dynasty, and as long as the emperor of Li Tang did not do anything strange, he was happy to take care of him.

However, this is a very difficult situation for King Golden Horn and King Silver Horn.

Because if Jin Chanzi lost his supernatural powers and did not awaken his past life memories, they naturally wouldn't need to consider the relationship between their master, Taishang Laojun, and the other party; they could just fight however they wanted.

Now, not only do they have to consider their relationship with the other party, but even if King Golden Horn and King Silver Horn were combined, they wouldn't be enough to defeat Golden Cicada!
It's like saying Erlang Shen Yang Jian would be easily defeated by someone who has cultivated for less than twenty years—that's absolutely impossible!
And most importantly, Erlang Shen and Nezha are both there!
While they could legally evade certain issues by transforming into the Golden Horn King and the Silver Horn King, their presence in person would be a complete disgrace to Laozi!

Although Laozi himself might not care much, it's impossible for them, as his subordinates, not to care about these things!
They cannot afford to embarrass Laozi!

Having thought this through, the Golden Horn King and the Silver Horn King exchanged a glance and then clasped their hands tightly together.

"We are brothers for life! Although we might be killed by Jin Chanzi behind Sun Wukong, we still have to do this! We cannot let down Laozi's cultivation and high regard!"

King Golden Horn's expression was resolute, and his eyes and brows were full of loyalty to Laozi!
Silver Horn King's loyalty to Laozi is no less than that of his brother, Golden Horn King! He spoke with great conviction.

"Brother! Don't worry, I'll go through fire and water for you! As long as you're loyal to Laozi, I'll do anything you ask!"

At this point, both of them couldn't help but think of the radiance of Laozi, a radiance as great as the sun. They couldn't help but perform a Taoist salute and call out in the direction of Laozi.

"loyalty!"

Their loyalty to Laozi, who is like the sun, will be as fervent as the sun's rays forever!

So after the oath was taken, King Golden Horn and King Silver Horn calmed down and began to plan, causing Sun Wukong, who was still eating in Baoxiang Kingdom, to keep sneezing.

but……

"But we still need to hire some people. The two of us alone are not enough to deal with these people."

After thinking for a moment, the Golden Horned King raised one finger.

"How about this? The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas all have a grudge against Sun Wukong, so let's invite them all!"

Looking at his fingers, King Golden Horn couldn't help but cross his eyes. Seeing this, King Silver Horn couldn't help but slap his forehead and whispered a reminder to King Golden Horn.

“Brother, I know your loyalty to Laozi is beyond question, but is it possible, I mean, is it possible that Nezha’s hatred for the Four Dragon Kings is far greater than the Four Dragon Kings’ hatred for Sun Wukong?”

The thought of his brother, the Golden Horn King, summoning the Four Dragon Kings of the Seas to Sun Wukong and Nezha in the name of Laozi made the Silver Horn King unable to imagine how lively the scene must have been!
King Golden Horn slapped his forehead in regret, and praised King Silver Horn.

"You're so much smarter, little brother! You'll always be wise for the sake of Laozi's cause!"

King Golden Horn once again praised King Silver Horn for his loyalty to Laozi, and then spoke again.

"Then the Ten Kings of Hell?"

Silver Horn King covered his face again.

"I think it would be more reliable to ask the Four Dragon Kings. Moreover, the Ten Kings of Hell are currently arranging for Kui Mulang and Baihuaxiu to undergo their tribulations, so they will most likely use this as an excuse not to bother Sun Wukong."

Even the Silver Horn King couldn't understand what the Golden Horn King was thinking. The Ten Kings of Hell wished they never had to see Sun Wukong again! Yet their own Golden Horn brother wanted to go after these people to deal with Sun Wukong for the sake of Laozi!
Aside from farting and adding to the chaos, what other purpose do these people serve against Sun Wukong?
Are you going to make Laozi (the Supreme Lord Lao) laugh?

While thinking, King Silver Horn praised Laozi's greatness once again in his heart before speaking.

"Hey, I have a plan..."

Upon hearing this, his older brother immediately came over, wanting to know what his younger brother had come up with. However, after hearing what he heard, his expression immediately turned strange, but he still couldn't help but reveal a smile!
"You're right. To deal with him, we need to lure Jin Chanzi and the others away first. That's right, that's what we should do! That's right! You did a good job, little brother!"
