Journey to the West: Upon seeing the Yellow-Eyebrowed Demon, why not pay homage?

Chapter 141 Lion Monster: "What the hell are you doing?"

"it is good."

The lion-like monster nodded slightly, then looked towards the palace gate: "Your Highness, please come in."

"Thank you, Father." The Crown Prince breathed a sigh of relief, silently gripped the short blade hidden in his long sleeve, and strode inside with his head held high and chest out.

"Your Highness, weren't you rescued? Why have you returned on your own?" Upon seeing him face to face, the lion-like monster asked directly.

The Crown Prince went straight to the imperial desk and bowed: "It is because I have discovered that the group of people who rescued me are rebels hiding in Wuji Kingdom."

In fact, they didn't rescue me; instead, they kidnapped me from the prison, intending to use my identity to carry out a rebellion.

After overhearing this information, I did everything I could to escape.

The lion asked in surprise, "So, it wasn't the temple keeper of Laozi Temple who saved you?"

"No," the crown prince said decisively.

The lion-like creature chuckled, neither confirming nor denying: "Very well, we are father and son after all. If you say so, I will believe you. Go back to your Crown Prince's residence and study hard so that you may inherit the throne in the future."

For him, the fewer stains he has, the better.

The purpose of sending the crown prince back to his residence was to erase the stain of being a deposed crown prince, so as to prevent others from finding fault with him in the future and criticizing him.

The Crown Prince said, "Father, I have obtained a top-secret message from the rebels."

"What top-secret information?" the lion-like monster asked curiously.

The crown prince's gaze swept over the two people beside the throne, his meaning quite clear.

The lion-like monster observed this and said indifferently, "They are all my trusted confidants, so speak freely."

The crown prince shook his head: "Father, the news I have learned is related to the two of them. Please ask them to stay away for now."

Lion-like monster: "————"

He was genuinely curious now about what this guy was planning.

"Your Majesty, we'll head back to our lodgings now."

Seeing that the Crown Prince was determined to keep quiet as long as they were there, the Dragon Girl silently stood up and said softly.

Actually, it wasn't just the lion-like creature that was curious; she also wanted to see what her opponent was really up to.

After all, only by understanding the opponent's moves can one devise a countermeasure.

After a while.

As the Dragon Girl and Zhifeng left, the Lion-like Monster stared into the Crown Prince's eyes and said, "Speak."

The prince took a deep breath, suddenly leaped into the air, and thrust the short blade in his hand, gleaming with a cold light, straight towards the lion-like monster's throat.

The lion-like monster sat upright on the dragon throne, without even raising a hand or blinking an eye. A transparent, circular protective aura suddenly appeared, blocking the prince's short blade and freezing the monster's body in mid-air.

The prince pressed his hands on the hilt of the short blade, gritted his teeth, and tried with all his might to break through the circular protective energy.

However, faced with absolute power, his efforts were in vain.

As the lion-like monster waved its sleeve, a gust of wind struck its body, sending it flying backwards through the air. It spat out a cloud of blood mist before crashing heavily to the ground.

"I thought you had some brilliant plan, but this is all? How utterly foolish, ridiculously stupid!"

The lion-like monster slowly rose to its feet, and an immense pressure immediately pressed down on the prince like a mountain.

The prince wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and demanded, "Are you human or a demon?"

"Does this question even matter?" the lion monster retorted.

"It's really not important anymore. After all, whether you're human or demon, you'll never be my father," the crown prince said.

"Your Highness, why are you so fixated on this? Can't you see that I have no intention of harming you? In fact, I'm even willing to return the throne to you, as long as you're obedient," the lion said strangely.

"Pah!" The crown prince spat at him and angrily rebuked him, "You traitor who stole the country!"

The lion-like monster's face turned cold: "In the two years I've been in power, the government has been efficient and the people have lived in peace and prosperity. Whether it's my personal abilities or my achievements in governing, I far surpass your father's."

Moreover, I arrived when your Wuji Kingdom was on the verge of collapse; I am the savior who saved the world from ruin.

"Without me, your Wuji Kingdom would have long since fallen apart. How dare you call me a thief who stole the country?"

"I understand now, you are the Taoist priest who prayed for rain," the prince said.

The lion asked strangely, "Now that you understand, are you willing to admit your mistake?"

"Admit your mistake?" The crown prince sneered, "My father was also killed by you, wasn't he? The hatred for killing one's father is irreconcilable. I will haunt you even as a ghost."

Having said that, he suddenly raised the short blade and plunged it into his own neck.

Seeing the blood spurt out and the prince collapse, the lion-like monster was completely stunned and asked in astonishment, "What the hell are you doing?"

How could this prince be so stupid?

You couldn't do anything to me when you were a human, so how could your strength increase so much after you become a ghost?

Just then.

Sun Wukong finally led the gods to the sky above the palace of Wuji Kingdom. Looking down, he saw resentment swirling within the palace. He immediately opened his divine eyes and looked towards the Imperial Hall, clearly seeing the scene before him—

"hiss."

Hearing his gasp, the gods opened their divine eyes and looked in that direction. Inside the hall, they saw a person and a corpse, with waves of resentment constantly emanating from the corpse.

At the same time.

In the side hall.

Sudhana looked at the vast array of gods with astonishment, a chill suddenly rising from her heart and rushing to the top of her head.

Realizing what was happening, she immediately used the willow branches to conceal her presence and that of Zhifeng.

"Gentlemen, the deceased was the Crown Prince of the current dynasty."

In the void, Sun Wukong silently clenched his fists, his face filled with anger: "I originally thought this evil Taoist had only deposed the crown prince, but I never expected—"

Upon hearing the words "demonic Taoist" and seeing the scene before them, all the immortals and gods turned ashen-faced.

Inside the Huangming Hall.

The lion-like monster suddenly felt a chill run down its spine. It looked up and saw through the rooftops, where it saw a series of gods with angry faces. Its heart trembled and it felt an urge to urinate surge.

What's going on?

Why are so many gods suddenly here?

However, even though he didn't understand the situation, his sense of danger and survival instinct made him instinctively want to escape underground.

At the forefront of the immortals and gods, Grand Master Xuandu suddenly raised his hand and pointed, and the ground of the Huangming Hall immediately shone with a layer of golden light.

"Bang, bang, bang—"

The lion-like monster kept stomping its right foot on the ground, and seeing that it couldn't escape, it broke out in a cold sweat.

"Stop trying, come out." Xuan Du led the gods to the front of the Huangming Hall and said calmly.

The lion-like monster gritted its teeth, suddenly smashed through the wall, and tried to escape in that direction.

Xuan Du flicked his finger, and the Immortal Binding Rope transformed into a golden light, arriving first despite being behind, wrapping around the lion-like monster in circles, not only imprisoning its magic power but also immobilizing its body.

"Come!"

Xuandu waved his hand, and the Immortal Binding Rope immediately dragged the lion-like monster to the front of the gods.

"Demon, prepare to die!" Sun Wukong's eyes turned red, and he suddenly flew up, swinging his staff to strike.

Xuan Du pointed a finger, and countless golden divine runes appeared out of thin air, swirling around Sun Wukong and holding him firmly in mid-air: "Wukong, hold your hand, we must first find out the reason—"
