I start by accepting Sun Wukong as my disciple and reshape the Journey to the West

Chapter 51 The Choice of the Four Dragon Kings

"Old Dragon King, you are greedy!" Sun Wukong's words made Ao Guang break out in cold sweat. It was at this moment that he truly felt the deterrent power of the son of destiny.

The aura displayed by Sun Wukong at this moment was exactly the same as that displayed by Ye Xuantian that day.

The power of Taoism was fully displayed at this moment.

Even though Ao Guang's cultivation was a little higher than Sun Wukong's at this time, Sun Wukong seemed as tall as the sky in Ao Guang's eyes.

The vast good fortune pressed down on Ao Guang like an overwhelming force.

Boom boom boom!
Ao Guang retreated dozens of steps before stopping.

"My Lord, please calm down!" Ao Guang stood up in a panic and was about to apologize, and even planned to give the set of armor directly to Sun Wukong.

But before he could say anything, Sun Wukong had already walked quickly to his side and helped him up.

"My dear Dragon King, what's wrong with you? I just said it as a joke, why are you so scared?"

Sun Wukong at this moment seemed to be a completely different person from before.

The smile on his face made him look so harmless that Ao Guang even had the illusion that everything that had happened before was just an illusion.

"As long as the old Dragon King can help me put on my armor, it's fine. I don't care how many people there are. Please do as you please!"

"Is the Immortal really willing?"

Ao Guang was absolutely confident that the good fortune he had just experienced was not an illusion.

"Seriously, please, Old Dragon King, go and prepare quickly so I can get my armor and go back."

"Okay, okay!" Ao Guang responded repeatedly, bowed to Sun Wukong and retreated.

As soon as he left the hall, Ao Guang stumbled and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Prime Minister Turtle reacted quickly, took two steps forward and supported Ao Guang.

"My king, are you okay?" Prime Minister Turtle asked cautiously.

Although his cultivation level was low, he could see that the Dragon King's cultivation level was far superior to Sun Wukong's.

He really couldn't understand why the Dragon King was so cautious in front of Sun Wukong, not to mention that he was so scared that his legs went weak by Sun Wukong's words.

"Fortunately, go and beat the drums and ring the bells quickly to summon my three brothers. Whether the dragon race can gain some merit in this calamity depends on this one time."

"Your Majesty, our dragon clan has been struggling to survive until now. This time, we have risked the world's condemnation by participating in the catastrophe. If the current emperor knew about this, the dragon clan would be doomed without a burial place! Please think twice!"

"If you really beat the drums and ring the bells, my dragon clan will have no way out!"

At this moment, Prime Minister Turtle knelt down directly, and his words were so sincere that people cried.

"Prime Minister Turtle, you've followed me for many years, and I understand your thoughts. But now, there's no place for our dragon clan in the Three Realms. If we can't create a bright future for our dragon clan during this catastrophe, our dragon clan will truly be nothing more than mounts for the gods and food on their tables."

"Go, Prime Minister Turtle, tell General Turtle to beat the drums and ring the bells. My dragon clan is determined to fight to the death!"

“Your Majesty!!!” Prime Minister Turtle wanted to dissuade him, but the Dragon King waved his hand.

"Old slave, you obey!"

Prime Minister Turtle stood up tremblingly and went to pass on the order.

Besides, inside the Dragon Palace, Sun Wukong was eating fruit with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

The sentence "The Dragon King is greedy" just now was not what he wanted to say. It was just that after Ao Guang finished speaking, he saw some things, such as some causal lines falling on the Dragon King, and those causal lines were emitted from him.

The most important thing was that when those causal lines flew out, he clearly felt that his luck had been stripped away a little.

He absolutely did not want those causal threads to escape from him, so he questioned it. As for why his attitude changed, it was because he saw that those causal threads began to multiply after falling on the Dragon King, and then fed back to him.

In other words, these causal threads can be earned back.

He had just recently received the revelation from Dao Ling, and vaguely understood the mission he was carrying. Although Ye Xuantian had told him about these things before, it was ultimately not as profound as his own personal experience.

Not to mention, when he was observing Ao Guang through the power of luck, he felt the breath from Ye Xuantian. Thinking of Dongfang Shuo saying that Ye Xuantian arranged for him to come to the East China Sea to find a treasure, he understood the connection between them.

"So, Master prepared a gift for me here?"

Thinking of Ao Guang's joy when he mentioned donning his armor, Sun Wukong also felt a little more anticipation. Two flowers bloomed, each showing its own beauty. Then Ao Guang ordered his men to beat drums and ring bells. Soon, the water surged, and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals announced, "My king, the three dragon kings have arrived."

"Please come quickly."

"Brother, is there something extremely urgent?" I heard the voice before I saw the person coming. I only heard a hearty voice and saw Ao Qin, the Dragon King of the South China Sea, walking quickly towards me in a red dragon robe.

"It's extremely urgent! My East China Sea's Divine Sea-Suppressing Needle has been taken away by an immortal!"

"What?" Ao Shun, the Dragon King of the North Sea, wore his black dragon robe, looking quite imposing without even getting angry. "Is it the Sea-Suppressing Divine Needle that was dropped by Yu the Great during the ancient times to control the floods?"

"That's right. The Sea-Suppressing Divine Needle has been in my East China Sea for many years. It didn't respond when called, and it was inert when touched. But today, this immortal simply walked up to it and called out 'small', and the Sea-Suppressing Divine Needle suddenly became a spirit. Its size changes according to the immortal's wishes, and now it has become his weapon."

"If the iron pillar really has such spiritual power, why hasn't there been any reaction in all these years? Big brother, who is the immortal you are talking about?" Ao Run, the Dragon King of the West Sea, was dressed in a white dragon robe and looked quite bookish. He asked calmly.

But as Ao Run finished speaking, the other three people's faces became more calm, as if Ao Run really had the ability to calm people's hearts.

"To be honest, Third Brother, this person is the son of destiny in this catastrophe! Although he is only at the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal, there is a Quasi-Saint behind him. We must not make him our enemy!"

"Since big brother knows his background so thoroughly, I think he has already made plans. Please tell me clearly!" Ao Run said seriously.

"To be honest, my dragon clan has been weak for a long time. Now, there are very few people in the Three Realms who are willing to look us in the eye. This time, when the catastrophe begins, my dragon clan has the advantage of time, place, and people. So I want to fight a desperate battle and go to the catastrophe to take a look."

Ao Guang had barely finished speaking when Ao Qin stepped forward and tugged at his sleeve, "Brother, are you crazy? We're just a dish at the feast now. If we continue like this, we can still live peacefully. Why are you rashly intervening in the catastrophe? Do you think our dragon race's lifespan is too long?"

"Second brother is right, big brother, getting involved in the catastrophe is the way to seek death!" Ao Shun quickly agreed.

"The catastrophe is a game of chess played by the saints. If you want to join this game, you must either become a player or a chess piece. But no matter which side you are on, we must be qualified to participate in this game!" Ao Run did not refute, but looked at Ao Guang seriously.

Ao Guang looked at Ao Run with a smile on his face: "Third brother has always been smart, and today he showed it even more!"

Ao Guang waved his hand, and his soldiers came forward carrying the magic treasure left by Ye Xuantian.

"The Divine Needle of the Sea is my invitation to join the game. Now, these lotus silk cloud-walking shoes, the phoenix-wing purple gold crown, and the chain mail golden armor are the remaining three invitations. I wonder if the three brothers are willing to stand with me in the East China Sea."

Ao Qin, Ao Shun and Ao Run were all silent.

They could feel the terrifying Dao rhyme from those three spiritual treasures, but they were just three spiritual treasures. Asking them to gamble their entire fortune and lives on them was somewhat a pipe dream.

"Brother, this matter is of great importance. None of us have seen the quasi-saint you mentioned. We have no reason to blindly follow your decision!" Ao Shun was young, so his thoughts were simple and his expressions were even simpler. He directly expressed his biggest fear.

"The reason I was able to see it is because my Donghai is near the Flower-Fruit Mountain. This is why I was able to see it first and received some enlightenment. But even so, that person did not force my dragon clan to enter the calamity."

"The Queen Mother, General Juanlian, Marshal Tianpeng, and Emperor Donghua have all come to Huaguo Mountain to pay their respects, hoping to establish a connection with that immortal!"

"We all know that this calamity is meant to complete the karma of the West, but it has been a long time since it began, and not a single Western saint has come here, yet the Son of Destiny has become the disciple of that immortal."

"It is an indisputable fact that our dragon race is declining. If we fail to seize this opportunity, we will only become a dish on the table in the future. The above four points are the reasons why I want to convince you to join us."

Ao Guang's words once again made the three of them fall into silence. It must be said that every one of Ao Guang's reasons was tempting enough.

"If it succeeds, what will we gain? If it fails, what will we lose?" After a long time, Ao Run spoke.

"If it succeeds, my dragon clan will have a chance to produce a saint. If it fails, there will be no trace of the dragon clan in the world from now on!" Ao Run's answer was simple and straightforward.

Ao Chun laughed bitterly, "Even if Big Brother praised that Quasi-Saint to the skies, I wouldn't believe it before I saw him. But I've always trusted Big Brother, so I, Xi Hai, will accept the Phoenix Wing Purple Gold Crown."

Ao Shun nodded and said: "Third brother, what you said is very reasonable. The four of us brothers have always been together. I accept the Ou Si Buyun Lu."

For a moment, Ao Qin was the only one who remained silent.

"Second brother, you have always been prudent in doing things. If you really feel that this matter is unsafe, you don't have to participate!" Ao Guang said with a smile.

Ao Qin stepped forward and touched the golden chain mail armor. "Although I, Ao Qin, am timid and afraid of death, I will never be a villain who abandons loyalty and pursues righteousness. I will consider it as sacrificing my life for a gentleman. I accept this chain mail armor."

Inside the Dragon Palace, Sun Wukong had already eaten three plates of fruit and was getting a little impatient waiting. Just as he was about to stand up and shout, Ao Guang walked in with the other three Dragon Kings.

Ao Guang, Ao Qin, Ao Run and Ao Shun walked side by side, with the dragon soul faintly emerging behind them, and the pressure was terrifying.

The Four Dragon Kings moved forward with their dragon souls, and the pressure was truly terrifying. Sun Wukong clenched the Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hand, ready to attack at any time.

Finally, the four Dragon Kings came to Sun Wukong, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully: "The four sea dragons are willing to serve the immortal. We are hereby given a set of armor and beg the immortal to take us in."
