Chapter 46 Monkey News
Bai Chengchou's face still bore some worry, after all, the so-called demons had appeared, and he truly didn't know how to deal with this situation.
"You also need not worry," the White Lotus Holy Maiden consoled Bai Chengchou, "They definitely dare not act rashly. You must know that now a great calamity has befallen the Cultivation Realm, and many righteous cultivators have descended from their mountains to face it. If it becomes known that they acted, these so-called reputable sects will surely clean house.
Ultimately, the outcome of this war must fall to the military."
Meanwhile, Lu Yu had already handed over the matters of the earthly rankings to Shi Qingfeng and had turned to return to his dwelling at Mountain Luoxia.
The Big Black Donkey was idly staring at a freshly sprouted tender branch in the cave, feeling quite depressed as he recalled Lu Yu, who had left. Ever since the incident last time, he'd always felt as if there were a pair of eyes watching him from behind, which made him extremely uncomfortable.
"When will you grow up, you little thing? You're not even enough for one bite for me." The creature still harbored nefarious intentions towards the Enlightenment Tea Tree. If it hadn't been for the Enlightenment Tea's foundation being injured, the True Spirit within would have already beaten this foolish creature thoroughly by now.
"Not to mention where that damned Scholar has gone, leaving Black Lord all alone here. It's so boring!" The Big Black Donkey let out a shout, his voice echoing in the empty cave dwelling.
"What are you wailing like a ghost or howling like a wolf here for all by yourself?" Suddenly, a voice came through, startling the Big Black Donkey, who rolled right off the ground. When he steadied himself and looked, he realized it was Lu Yu who had come back from outside.
"Master, you have returned. Xiao Hei has missed you greatly and has been longing day and night for your safe return." The Big Black Donkey changed his earlier cursing tone to a fawning one, and by the looks of it, he was just short of rushing forward to hug Lu Yu's legs.
"Oh! Is that so? How rare for you to have such sentiment." Lu Yu didn't believe a word the Big Black Donkey said, knowing that this foolish creature probably wished that he had died outside so that it could lead a carefree life.
The Big Black Donkey chuckled sheepishly, but inside he cursed: "Damn it, why didn't you die out there? My poor freedom, my beloved earth and blue sky."
Marshal Ma suddenly knelt on the ground, crying, "Sir, to be honest, our Great King has gotten into big trouble this time. He told me not to say anything, but I know that this time, the Great King will likely not escape his fate. I hope you can save him!"
Lu Yu also sighed deeply upon hearing this. He was well aware that the monkey had caused great trouble, but this was all part of the schemes of mighty beings. Even with his capabilities, going there would be futile. He had also advised the monkey to think carefully before acting, yet that was the proud Great Sage Equalling Heaven who would not easily change.
"I am already aware of your Great King's situation. You can rest assured that his life is not in danger, but it's you smaller monkeys who might face deadly peril!"
Martial Ma was first overjoyed and then alarmed, quickly prostrating himself and pleading, "I implore you to save our lives, sir!"
Lu Yu pondered for a long time as he gazed into the distance at the sky, with the fortune and destiny of Great Chen fully in view. After the last war, Lu Zhang had successfully taken Jinzhou, and the King of Pingnan, Li Xin, had committed suicide. Lu Zhang had also officially entered the stage to contend for control of the world.
Meanwhile, the situation in Zhongzhou had fallen into a strange equilibrium between the Black Armored Army and White Lotus Sect. Although local warfare had never ceased, neither side had engaged in a major battle again, as if quietly waiting for something.
Everyone knew that this was merely the calm before the storm, and soon the struggle for the dragon of Great Chen would reach its most intense moment—a moment that would decide the fate of the land.
For Lu Yu, this moment was equally significant. As the war escalated, it was very possible that Lu Zhang's side would encounter various situations, and he had to be ready to descend the mountain and lend assistance at any time. After all, the success of Lu Zhang was tied to his own appointment as City God, and he could not afford to be negligent.
After a long while, Lu Yu let out a heavy sigh and said, "It's hard to find peace of mind, and I don't know if my plan will succeed."
He wanted to fight side by side with the monkey out of friendship, but he didn't dare to do so because he knew the depths behind the grand Journey to the West. This was a stage set by many Saints together, and with his current level of cultivation, it was like trying to stop a cart with one's arm. He could only hope to assist at the fringes.
Despite this, Lu Yu had to risk his life, for the waters of the Journey to the West world were too deep. Many powerful beings lurked behind the scenes, and you couldn't gauge their strength or choices. A single misstep could mean danger to one's life.
He said to Marshal Ma, "Stay here and wait for me for a few days, and I will think of a solution for you!"
