The Journey to the West is over, and the Perfect Life System is here

Chapter 26 Junzhou City God
Next, when Sun Wukong was waiting for Ao Lie and the others to send the three dragon blood arrows, the system's voice sounded again.

[After obtaining the treasure from the Dragon Palace, you made many friends and became sworn brothers with the Bull Demon King, the Jiao Demon King, the Peng Demon King, the Lion King, the Monkey King, and the Yu Ape King, becoming famous in the demon world.

One day, you entertained the six kings at a banquet and got extremely drunk. In your dream, you saw two people holding a document with your name on it and using a rope to tie up your soul.

When you sober up, you find yourself at the edge of a city, with three big words "Underworld" written on the city gate.

After questioning, we learned that the two people were ghost messengers who were sent to take your soul because your life span had ended.

You suddenly feel confused. You have already transcended the Three Realms and are no longer within the Five Elements. How dare the underworld take your soul?

[Obtained the mission: The Underworld Seduces Souls. You need to find out why the Underworld seduces you.]

"Hey, interesting, interesting, it actually jumped directly to this experience." Sun Wukong's smart eyes rolled around.

He had been thinking before, if the system issued a new task of seven kings becoming sworn brothers, how would he complete it.

After all, things have changed and the seven great saints of the demon world can no longer return to the past.

Except for the Lion King who is dead and the Peng Demon King who is missing, the remaining Jiao Demon King, Monkey King, and Ape King have no contact with him.

The Bull Demon King had a great feud with him on the journey to the West. Although he finally converted to Buddhism, he was subdued and was definitely not convinced in his heart.

So now the system directly issues the task of collecting souls from the underworld, which saves him a lot of trouble.

Afterwards, Sun Wukong focused his attention on the new task.

"The underworld is seducing souls..."

There is no need to speculate, it is certain that this experience is problematic!

Just as the mission description said, he realized back then that he was an immortal being beyond the Three Realms and not within the Five Elements. He was not subject to the jurisdiction of the underworld. How could the underworld dare to take his soul?

But at that time he was unable to complete the process of eliminating the devil and returning to his original nature, because there were still evil thoughts in his heart.

So after entering the underworld, he killed the ghost messenger, drew up a book of life and death, and made a big fuss.

This kind of violent and violent means of fighting does make you feel relieved, but it cannot really solve the problem. Instead, it will bring you more trouble.

If he could be as clear-minded and not arrogant as he is now, he could definitely find out the reason for the soul-haunting and hold them accountable for their crimes.

After all, he is the Taiyi Golden Immortal who has obtained the fruit of immortality. If we really investigate it, it is not something that can be let go by just saying that it was a mistake.

"I must get to the bottom of this time!" Divine light gathered in Sun Wukong's lively eyes.

Of course, nearly a thousand years have passed now, and the key evidence has been lost. If we investigate again, the underworld may not recognize it.

"Hehe, it's better not to admit it. If we don't make a big fuss, it will be difficult to investigate!"

This time, investigating whether he had been possessed was only one of the reasons. The second was to investigate whether the King of Tang had been able to return to life and increase his lifespan, and whether he had any transactions with Buddhism.

Because all the previous information was speculation, and this matter involves a lot of things, it needs to be carefully verified.

After the Monkey King had a plan in mind, he immediately set out to do it.

However, before going to the underworld, he first went to Jambudvīpa.

……

Datang, Junzhou.

There is Danshui here, close to Wudang Mountain.

"Well, I have become like this, but I am not afraid of being seen by Master Zhenwu." Sun Wukong transformed into a Taoist priest in green clothes, standing at Danjiangkou, looking in the distance in the direction of Wudang Mountain.

That is the dojo of the Great Emperor Zhenwu, the Heavenly Lord of Subduing Demons.

When he was traveling west and passing through the Little Leiyin Temple in Xiaoxitian, in order to deal with the Yellow-browed Monster, he came to Wudang Mountain for reinforcements and asked the two generals, the turtle and the snake, and the five divine dragons under Zhenwu for help.

Unfortunately, the five dragons and two generals were finally captured by the Yellow-browed Monster using magic weapons.

Sun Wukong reminisced for a moment, but he had no intention of visiting the Zhenwu Patriarch, otherwise he wouldn't have changed his appearance. Now, his Tiangang Number and Disha Number have merged into one, and his transformation is flawless.

Even if the Zhenwu Patriarch was in person, it would be difficult to see his changes without careful observation.

"If all this is indeed related to the journey to the West, then we must be extremely careful." Sun Wukong thought to himself, and at the same time resisted the urge to raise his hand to scratch his face.

The reason why he changed his appearance was to prevent others from discovering that he was investigating these things.

The purpose of this trip to Junzhou was to confirm the matter of Liu Quan bringing in melons.

According to Chi Ran, after the King of Tang returned to life and increased his lifespan, he posted a notice to recruit talented people to bring melons and fruits to the underworld.

The wealthy man Liu Quan who took the lead at that time was from Junzhou.

In the end, this person committed suicide by taking poison with a pair of pumpkins on his head.

But what was strange was that Chi Ran had seen Liu Quan alive and well in Junzhou, and he had even married a beautiful new wife with the same name as his first wife. It didn't look like he had committed suicide by taking poison.

"Only fourteen years have passed since we set out on our journey west. Liu Quan should still be alive."

"But, how can I find him in this vast sea of people?"

Sun Wukong looked at the Junzhou City located on the bank of Dan River in the distance. It was crowded with people. If he really wanted to investigate, it would take some time.

Suddenly, his bright eyes rolled around and he smiled, "Hey, got it!"

This is the Tang Dynasty, not those small countries and cities in Xiniu Hezhou.

Then, he flashed into Junzhou City and quickly found the City God Temple in the north of the city.

At this time, there were many believers in the City God Temple, and it seemed that the incense was very prosperous.

"It seems that he is a city god who is quite popular among the people. It's rare." The Taoist priest in green clothes transformed by Sun Wukong hid in the crowd and watched.

The statue of the City God in the temple had disheveled hair, open arms, and looked somewhat unruly.

It is even rarer to see a City God that looks like this.

After observing the scene for a while, the Monkey King's eyes suddenly shone with divine light, and he called out to the statue, "Where is the local City God? Come out and see me!"

The next moment, a burly man with disheveled hair walked out of the City God statue.

"May I ask which immortal you are from and why you came to my city?" asked the City God of Junzhou.

The tone of voice and the neither humble nor arrogant attitude surprised Sun Wukong.

He had never seen such a courageous little god from the underworld. He was completely different from the land and mountain gods he had seen before.

Although he did not reveal his true form, the golden immortal light in his eyes could not be faked.

This City God is not afraid of him?
"Could it be that it has something to do with the Zhenwu Patriarch?" Sun Wukong's mind stirred, and he waved the whisk in his hand and said in a deep voice, "Master Lingtai, I have come to inquire about the current whereabouts of a wealthy man named Liu Quan in your city."

"Liu Quan who came out of the melon fourteen years ago?" The City God of Junzhou raised his head slightly, with a strange look in his eyes.

"That's right." said Sun Wukong.

"My Lord, please follow me." A smile appeared on the face of the City God of Junzhou, and he was obviously more enthusiastic than before.

"Why are you asking about Liu Quan without asking me?" Sun Wukong was surprised.

"It's just asking about someone. It's not a difficult matter. Why ask so many questions?" The City God of Junzhou said with a smile.

"Hehe, thank you." said Sun Wukong.

He could see that there was something wrong with the City God, but now was not the time to question him.
