Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 92: Chaos, Overlord Fights the Monkey
Chapter 92: Chapter 92: Chaos, Overlord Fights the Monkey
"General Song, what happened in the Netherworld? Why is there so much turmoil?" Concerned about the situation in the Netherworld, Jiang Chen asked Song Lin.
"Ah!" Upon hearing Jiang Chen’s question, Song Lin sighed deeply before he said, "Don’t even ask. I don’t know where this monkey came from, but it has caused chaos in the Underworld, stirred up Hell, and released countless evil spirits, turning the once peaceful Netherworld into a complete mess."
"So now, I’m leading a team of my men, catching evil spirits all over."
The tone of Song Lin’s speech was full of complaints. But Jiang Chen didn’t care, he was particularly sensitive to the monkey’s affair now. As soon as Song Lin mentioned the monkey, Jiang Chen immediately thought of Sun Wukong.
Soon, Jiang Chen saw his magic converging on his fingertips, sketching in the void. Soon, a portrait of Sun Wukong, identical in every way, gradually appeared before everyone’s eyes.
"Is it this monkey?" Pointing at the portrait of Sun Wukong, Jiang Chen asked Song Lin.
"Yes, exactly, this damned monkey. Have you met him too?" Upon seeing Sun Wukong’s portrait, Song Lin immediately grew excited.
How could he not be excited?
When Sun Wukong trespassed into the Underworld, it was Song Lin who discovered him first and was also the first to try to stop him.
He initially thought he could achieve a great feat, but he did not expect to be hit away by Sun Wukong’s staff at their first exchange. Although he was not injured, he was left with severe humiliation, it was utterly shameful.
"Is the General joking?"
"That monkey is at most at the Golden Immortal level, not to mention the Emperor Lord of Fengdu, even if it was one of the Five Ghost Emperors, they could have easily killed him. How could they tolerate him causing chaos in the Netherworld?" freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Ignoring the humiliation in Song Lin’s tone, Jiang Chen asked incredulously.
Jiang Chen was not surprised that Sun Wukong could cause chaos in the Underworld. After all, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva resides in the Underworld. With him, even if the ten Yamas have the ability to suppress Sun Wukong, they are also not daring to act.
But the Underworld was different.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva’s face is not effective there. The power of the Buddhists cannot reach there either.
The Underworld only respects the Emperor Lord of Fengdu, even the Heaven Court does not care, let alone Buddhism.
Sun Wukong dared to trespass into the Underworld, he truly has a guts of steel. You should know that in the Underworld, there are countless masters, in addition to the Five Ghost Emperors, there are also Six Palaces of Luo Tian and six Demon Gods.
The strength of these people, not one is below the Taiyi Golden Immortal, and even there are masters of the level of the Great Luo Golden Immortal. Any of them that appear can suppress Sun Wukong.
Still causing trouble, he must be dreaming.
...
Seeing that Jiang Chen doesn’t believe him, Song Lin isn’t surprised. Honestly, if it were him, he wouldn’t believe that anyone would dare to cause chaos in the Underworld either. But the reality is as such, and he can’t help it.
With a bitter face, Song Lin said helplessly, "That monkey got lucky. Just a few days ago, upon invitation from Buddha, the Emperor Lord along with the Five Ghost Emperors and the Six Respected Deities went to the Western Spiritual Mountain to attend a banquet."
"If it were not for this, how could they tolerate this monkey’s insolence?"
Tsk tsk~
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but click his tongue. It is quite a coincidence that Buddha would invite people to the Spiritual Mountain for a banquet at this time, it is clearly a plot against the Emperor Lord of Fengdu.
There is something wrong with the Emperor Lord of Fengdu, knowing that it is a plot, he not only went alone but also took his subordinates with him, just like deliberately giving others a chance to cause trouble.
I don’t know what kind of dirty deal is involved in this that allowed the Emperor Lord of Fengdu to do so.
However, this has nothing to do with Jiang Chen. As they say, "A small ghost doesn’t meddle with the affairs of the Yama", those matters of the Great Divine Transcendants are not his concern.
Right now, just doing his own thing is enough.
With a move of his heart, Jiang Chen continued to inquire, "The high-ranking officials of the Underworld are not present, so who is stopping Sun Wukong now? Is it the extraordinary figure in the Underworld? Or is it an exceptional expert from Hell?"
This question, Jiang Chen was very curious, is there a talented figure in the Netherworld who can suppress Sun Wukong?
Right now, since Song Lin is able to go out and apprehend evil spirits with his men, it appears that Sun Wukong has been stopped by someone, or maybe even suppressed already.
If not, Song Lin wouldn’t be so leisurely. He should be leading the troops to suppress Sun Wukong instead.
In response to Jiang Chen’s question, Song Lin appeared to be quite embarrassed and only after a long hesitation, did he whisper in a low voice, "It’s neither from the Underworld nor from Hell, it’s... it’s the Ghost King Xiang Yu!"
After a lot of speculation, Song Lin finally mentioned a name that surprised Jiang Chen to no end— Xiang Yu!
No wonder Song Lin was embarrassed. His own jurisdiction had been trashed, and had to rely on outsiders to sort it out. If this was Jiang Chen instead, he would also feel too embarassed to admit it.
Hiss~~
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Chen took in a sharp breath, making a significant contribution to the warming of the climate in the Netherworld. This breath was worth at least ten of others.
Jiang Chen was genuinely shocked.
My goodness, how did Xiang Yu get involved with Sun Wukong?
This completely doesn’t make sense!
Feeling surprised in his heart, Jiang Chen asked uncertainly, "Xiang Yu, is it the one from the Chu Kingdom? The grandson of Xiang Yan, who contested the world with Liu Bang?"
Nodding his head, Song Lin solemnly replied, "Yes, it’s him, Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu. After his defeat and suicide, the vicious aura on him did not dissipate, turning him into a Ghost King."
"Afterward, he gathered the remnants of his force, leading an army of a hundred thousand into the Netherworld, where he established the Chu Kingdom, becoming a dominant power."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but lick his lips again. As expected, a capable person can be successful anywhere.
As to why no one stopped Xiang Yu from establishing his own kingdom in the Netherworld, Jiang Chen didn’t bother asking a silly question like that.
Isn’t it obvious?
Who owns the Netherworld? It’s Mother Earth’s domain. And Xiang Yu, carrying the bloodline of the Witch Clan, is definitely more comfortable in the Netherworld than in the mortal realm.
If Mother Earth doesn’t speak out, who in the Netherworld dares to move against Xiang Yu? This time, Sun Wukong has really kicked a solid iron plate.
Jiang Chen doesn’t dare to kill Sun Wukong, but Xiang Yu does!
Because, Xiang Yu’s backstage is bigger than Sun Wukong’s.
In the Netherworld, even if both Jieyin and Zhunti, the two saintly figures, arrive together, they would still not be Mother Earth’s opponents with the support from the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
As long as Xiang Yu does not leave the Netherworld, even if he kills Sun Wukong, Buddhism can do nothing about him.
Thinking about this, Jiang Chen looked at Song Lin with a somewhat mysterious gaze.
Could it be that the people of the Underworld did it purposefully?
They knew that Sun Wukong has a significant background that’s not to be messed with, but they also despised Sun Wukong for causing chaos in the Underworld and didn’t want him to have an easy time.
So, they intentionally lured Xiang Yu, who has an even bigger background, to deal with Sun Wukong.
To the people of the Underworld, Sun Wukong is not a good creature, but neither is Xiang Yu!
In a conflict between the two parties, whichever side suffers is a pleasure for the Underworld’s people. They would be even happier if both sides perish, they would probably wake up laughing in their dreams.
