Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything

From their conversation, Nezha could tell that Master Leizhen's feelings for Fairy Zixia were indeed very deep, so Nezha knew that trying to persuade Master Leizhen to let go of this relationship was nearly an impossible task.

Moreover, even if Master Leizhen truly was willing to let go, it wouldn't be possible now.

After all, if he let go now, wouldn't that mean admitting his fear of Sun Wukong?

And at this moment, Nezha indeed felt quite troubled. Although he had a good relationship with Sun Wukong, his relationship with Master Leizhen was also strong. If the two of them really came to blows, it would be very inappropriate for him to help either side.

"Alright then, Master Leizhen brother, please be careful!" After a long silence, Nezha felt he had inquired about everything that needed to be known, and in the end, this was the only advice he could offer.

"The current Journey to the West is, after all, related to the Great Catastrophe of Heaven and Earth, and brother, you have seen with your own eyes how terrible the Deification Catastrophe was!" What more could he say? At this point, that Nezha could offer such a reminder, was already the utmost benevolence and righteousness!

Despite Master Leizhen's confidence in himself, believing that his status as a Daluo Golden Immortal meant he didn't have to fear Sun Wukong, listening to Nezha speak of the Great Catastrophe made Master Leizhen's heart quiver, and he nodded solemnly, saying, "I understand, thank you for the reminder, brother!"

Having said what needed to be said and learned what needed to be known, there wasn't much else to do, Nezha lifted his teacup and drained it with one gulp, then rose to take his leave.

His Wind-Fire Wheels appeared beneath his feet and his form turned into a blaze of firelight, rapidly disappearing into the horizon.

After watching Nezha disappear as a firelight, Master Leizhen then returned to his cave dwelling and sat down again.@@novelbin@@

His gaze fell on the teacup that Nezha had emptied and he murmured softly to himself, "Sun Wukong, huh? This monkey indeed possesses vast Divine Skills. Five hundred years ago, even brother Nezha was no match for him, and brother Yang Jian only managed to gain a slight advantage with the help of the Xiaotian Dog. It seems, he really isn't easy to deal with!"

Musing to himself, of course, although Master Leizhen was aware that Sun Wukong was a formidable opponent, he was, at the same time, filled with confidence in himself.

Sun Wukong is hard to deal with? Could it be that I, who have survived the Deification Catastrophe, am considered an easy target!?

...

On the other hand, after gathering the information he needed, Nezha quickly wrote a letter and summoned an immortal crane.

Tying the letter to the crane's leg and giving it some instructions, the crane quickly flew off to find Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong carefully read the letter from the crane's leg and came to understand the true nature of the marriage between Master Leizhen and Fairy Zixia.

So it was all Master Leizhen's own wishful thinking!

After giving it some thought, Sun Wukong leapt up and returned to the Exquisite Immortal Mansion, where he relayed to Jiang Liu the information that Nezha had gathered for him.

"So that's the real truth of the matter? Could it be that no one schemed at all!?" Having learned the truth, Jiang Liu was even more astonished.

Was it really love at first sight? Master Leizhen fell deeply for Fairy Zixia after just one meeting?

"Master, now that we know what we need to know, what do we do next?" Sun Wukong asked anxiously, after seeing Jiang Liu put down the letter.

"The crux of the matter still lies with Master Leizhen!" Jiang Liu said in response to Sun Wukong's question.

After mulling over the matter quietly, setting aside whether the Jade Emperor and Empress Qinghua had any scheming intentions related to this affair, at least from what had been displayed so far, they didn't seem to be deeply involved.

If so, that would mean they did not wish to reveal their own schemes, right?

"Master, I, Old Sun, think that there's not much need for consideration here. Since everything stems from Master Leizhen, I'll just have to fight with him, and in the end, we'll see whose skills speak for themselves!" Sun Wukong couldn't help but speak out as he saw Jiang Liu pondering and devising strategies.

"Eh? There's some sense to what you say!" Hearing Sun Wukong's suggestion, Jiang Liu felt a slight stir in his heart.

Indeed, upon giving it some thought, he found some merit in Sun Wukong's words. If the Jade Emperor and Empress Qinghua truly had plans, they were unknown to him at the moment, so how could he outwit them?

Besides, Sun Wukong's network may be decent, but after the Deification War, Master Leizhen's connections could be said to be far broader than Sun Wukong's.

The longer the delay, if it really came down to using their connections, that would be one of Sun Wukong's weaknesses.

Therefore, without considering connections or scheming, and solely focusing on a clash of power, Sun Wukong's chances of winning seemed to be the greatest!?

"Monkey, tell me the truth, if you were to fight Master Leizhen, what would the outcome be?" After mulling over it for a moment, Jiang Liu didn't rush to say much but instead questioned Sun Wukong.

"I've never heard of this person, Master Leizhen, so as to how the fight would go, I, Old Sun, have no idea, but I don't believe I would lose to him!" Sun Wukong replied.

Despite not knowing the extent of Master Leizhen's cultivation level, he was still full of confidence in himself.

"Master, I, Old Pig, probably know a bit!" However, following Sun Wukong's comment, Zhu Bajie at his side spoke up and said, "As far as I know, during the great Deification battle, although Master Leizhen's methods were decent, he was still not as skilled as Erlang True Monarch. Over the years, I've heard that he found a Leize, where his cultivation has been doubly effective, and he must have made great strides! He has already reached the level of a Daluo Golden Immortal!"

Zhu Bajie's words did indeed make Jiang Liu nod silently in agreement. Indeed, based on the performance during the Deification battle, Master Leizhen's strength, although good, was still somewhat inferior to that of Erlang God.

Logically speaking, since Sun Wukong could fight Erlang God so vigorously, Sun Wukong's chances of winning should be even greater.

However, the cultivation level of a Daluo Golden Immortal was not to be underestimated, and a thousand years of arduous cultivation in a Cave Heaven and Blessed Land made it even more unfathomable!

"If that's the case, Wukong, as you said, go challenge Master Leizhen to a fight! Indeed, everything depends on one's own abilities!" Nodding his head, Jiang Liu spoke.

"Hehehe, alright!" Hearing this, a smile appeared on Sun Wukong's face, and he nodded in response.

For Sun Wukong, things that could be solved with a fight didn't warrant spending too much thought.

"Wait a moment…" Just as Sun Wukong was about to leave after nodding, Jiang Liu immediately spoke up to stop him.

"Take these with you! I hope they can be of help when the time comes!"

With a flip of his palm, Jiang Liu took out more than a dozen Healing Potions, several Enhanced Healing Potions, and Mana Potions and stuffed them all into Sun Wukong's hands.

In a game, popping potions while fighting monsters is a standard practice, isn't it?

"This, Master, isn't this a bit unsporting?" Seeing Jiang Liu stuffing dozens of potions into his hands all at once, Sun Wukong hesitated and said.

In Sun Wukong's opinion, the potions were very powerful, and going into battle with them seemed somewhat unfair.

"What's unsporting about it?! These potions, just like your Jingu Bang, though both are external forces, both can be your treasures. When you fight, do you not use your Jingu Bang?" Jiang Liu responded impatiently to Sun Wukong's remark.

"This…" Alright, Jiang Liu's argument seemed flawless, and after some thought, Sun Wukong decided to accept the potions.

"Now, go ahead!" Seeing Sun Wukong pocket all the items, Jiang Liu then nodded and said.

Reasonably speaking, even if Master Leizhen's cultivation level had reached that of a Daluo Golden Immortal, with these potions to support him, Sun Wukong should be able to control the battle with confidence, shouldn't he?

You can drink one potion every 60 seconds to restore 10% of your Life Value, and there are also Enhanced Healing Potions.

As long as Sun Wukong isn't completely overwhelmed, in Jiang Liu's view, Sun Wukong should be guaranteed victory.

However, considering the Divine Level Quest he had taken on, with a reward of 100 million Experience Points, Jiang Liu felt a bit uneasy and cautioned him to be careful.

"Don't worry, I, Old Sun, understand!" Nodding, Sun Wukong replied.

As his voice fell, Sun Wukong leaped up and, employing his Somersault Cloud, flew directly towards Leize in the Eastern Shengshenzhou Continent.

At this time, because Fairy Zixia was betrothed, the Heavenly Deities were all waiting to see Sun Wukong's reaction, and even the Great Jade Emperor was prepared for Sun Wukong to make another uproar in the Lingxiao Hall.

However, Sun Wukong's first reaction was merely to have a fight at Nezha's residence, and this time he was flying towards the Eastern Shengshenzhou Continent, which puzzled everyone.

"What is this Rascal Monkey doing in the Eastern Shengshenzhou Continent?!" Atop the Lingxiao Hall, after receiving reports from Thousand-Mile Eye and Wind-Listening Ear, the Jade Emperor wore a surprised look on his face.

"Amitabha, this monkey, has he finally come to understand something?" In the Thunder Monastery, after learning of this news, the Tathagata wore a relieved expression.

Given the monkey's usual temperament, at this time he would already have caused a huge commotion, but now he was still able to contain his impulsiveness? This made the Tathagata quite pleased.

If so, as long as he knew his place, thereafter the monkey should stay obediently at the Great Thunder Monastery, available for the Tathagata's use, right?

Setting aside what the various powerhouses thought about Sun Wukong's actions, performing somersaults on the cloud, Sun Wukong quickly arrived at Leize.

"Master Leizhen, come out and face I, Old Sun!"

Upon arriving at Leize, Sun Wukong hovered in mid-air, bellowing as if he were an Ancient Fierce Beast.
