Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything-Chapter 1022: Empress: My goal has been achieved!

Originally, Jiang Liu summoned the Good Corpse with the intention of using the Double Fish Jade Pendant to exchange skills and give him the Soul-Returning Spell to revive Long Eyebrow.

However, the skill exchanged with the Double Fish Jade Pendant can only last for five minutes.

To have the Good Corpse fly from the Heavenly Court to the Long Eyebrow Temple, though the Good Corpse is incredibly fast now, five minutes is simply not enough.

Therefore, Jiang Liu took the Skill Bookcase from his Special Equipment slot and placed it in his inventory space, and then put a Soul-Returning Spell skill book inside the bookcase.

Over the years, through fighting monsters and leveling up, not only has he obtained a lot of equipment, but he has also received quite a few skill books, including four or five copies of the Soul-Returning Spell skill book.

It’s just that he’s already learned this skill, so the skill book doesn’t have much use for him.

At this moment, giving the Skill Bookcase to the Good Corpse meant the Soul-Returning Spell skill book came in handy.

"What... what happened to me?"

As the Soul-Returning Spell was cast, Long Eyebrow opened his eyes, a look of confusion in them, clearly not understanding what had happened.

Although Long Eyebrow soon recalled, realizing that he had fainted due to an injury to his Divine Soul, he quickly noticed that his body felt very wrong.

To put it bluntly, his injuries were extremely severe at the moment.

Jiang Liu’s Soul-Returning Spell had reached the Great Perfection level, but the Good Corpse only used one Skill Point, so the Soul-Returning Spell was only at the Primary Level. Thus, although some of the health bar on his head had recovered, it was only to 10%.

He still appeared to be in a very dangerous state.

"You should recover from your injuries first!" The Good Corpse flipped his palm and took out a bottle of Enhanced Healing Potion from his inventory space, speaking to Long Eyebrow True Man.

"Thank you, Taoist Friend!"

Long Eyebrow glanced at the Good Corpse, and with Sha Wujing and others nearby, he trusted him enough to take the Enhanced Healing Potion and gulp it down in one go.

As the Enhanced Healing Potion took effect, Long Eyebrow could feel his injuries recovering rapidly within his body.

Although the injuries were far from fully healed, for Long Eyebrow, he already felt much better than before.

"Is this the legendary Healing Divine Medicine? The effect is truly astonishing!" Having heard about the miraculous healing potions of the Journey to the West Pilgrimage Team, Long Eyebrow could not hide his surprise after experiencing the effect of the Enhanced Healing Potion.

"Alright, now that things here are done, I’m leaving!" Seeing that Long Eyebrow’s health bar had recovered more than halfway, reaching a safer point, the Good Corpse had no intention of lingering and turned to Sha Wujing, saying this before leaving.

"General Juanlian..."

After the Good Corpse left, Long Eyebrow looked at Sha Wujing, a bit puzzled, and asked, "Where is the Holy Monk? Why isn’t he here? Also, I remember it was only my Divine Soul that was injured, so why am I now so severely wounded? Did something happen while I was unconscious?"

"True Man, something indeed happened!"

Upon hearing Long Eyebrow’s question, Sha Wujing didn’t hide anything and nodded, then explained everything in detail to Long Eyebrow True Man.

The Master had gone to the Heavenly Court to return the Soul-Calming Stone, but was kept by the Empress to admire flowers, and Senior Brother Sun Wukong was also called over by Fairy Zixia to accompany her in flower viewing.

Finally, there was his Second Senior Brother, who was sought after by the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals to help deal with a Water Demon Beast that had broken the seal under the Heavenly River.

Then, when the Master and his two senior brothers had all left, two powerful opponents suddenly attacked, clearly targeting Long Eyebrow True Man.

The opponents had succeeded, but fortunately, the Master invited a friend to help, using the supernatural power that resurrects the dead, which brought Long Eyebrow True Man back to life.

As Sha Wujing recounted the events in detail, Long Eyebrow’s expression gradually became grim.

Judging by everything that happened, Long Eyebrow, having lived for an unknown number of years, naturally saw the truth of the situation clearly.

Having lived so long, Long Eyebrow naturally had friends, but also enemies. Among them, the most suspicious of attacking him would be the Empress.

After all, because of the Soul-Calming Stone, the Empress knew he would definitely be injured. fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm

Was she taking the opportunity to strike while he was wounded?

Moreover, according to Sha Wujing, the Holy Monk and others were lured away from the area, suggesting that only the Empress would have such means.

"Although you’ve been successfully revived, you are still severely injured, so you should focus on recovering!" Seeing the thoughtful look in Long Eyebrow True Man’s eyes, Sha Wujing said.

...

Let’s not speak of Long Eyebrow True Man in the Mortal World for now, but on the other side, in the Heavenly Court’s Glycyrrhiza Garden, Jiang Liu and Sun Wukong, along with a few others, accompanied the Jade Emperor and Empress to appreciate various exotic herbs.

Indeed, the garden, specifically used by the Empress to collect the exotic herbs from the three realms, boasts a truly remarkable scenery.

Especially with Fairy Zixia introducing each plant, she could practically explain them all in detail.

Because before going to the Guanghan Palace, Fairy Zixia originally managed these flowers and plants in the Glycyrrhiza Garden for the Empress, so she was naturally very familiar with them.

However, although the scenery in the Glycyrrhiza Garden was beautiful, Jiang Liu didn’t seem very focused on these plants at the moment.

Feeling a bit worried about Long Eyebrow True Man’s situation, he appeared somewhat absent-minded.

"Xuanzang, you seem a bit unsettled, are you still frightened?" The Empress, noticing Jiang Liu’s odd expression, couldn’t help but ask.

"Frightened? Did something just happen?" Sun Wukong, hearing the Empress, looked at Jiang Liu in surprise and asked.

"Just now, a mysterious figure wielding a Tai Chi Diagram suddenly appeared and attacked Xuanzang. Fortunately, with the two of us and Xuanzang’s own capabilities, the mysterious figure naturally retreated without success..." Hearing Sun Wukong’s inquiry, the Great Jade Emperor explained what had just happened.

"What? A mysterious figure wielding a Tai Chi Diagram attacked Master?" Sun Wukong turned his head, a searching look in his eyes.

Although the Jade Emperor was unclear, Sun Wukong knew well that the Tai Chi Diagram was originally Master’s treasure.

The one holding the Tai Chi Diagram should be either the Good Corpse or the Evil Corpse, right?

But in the Heavenly Court, in front of the Jade Emperor and Empress, why did Master suddenly put on such a play?

Sun Wukong wasn’t worried about Jiang Liu’s safety, but felt extremely perplexed, not understanding the deeper meaning behind Master’s actions.

"Don’t worry, Wukong, I’m fine..." Seeing Sun Wukong’s searching eyes, Jiang Liu naturally wouldn’t explain in front of the Jade Emperor and Empress, so he shook his head slightly and said.

Beep beep beep!

Just then, a notification sound suddenly rang out, catching Jiang Liu’s attention once more.

Keeping a calm demeanor, Jiang Liu immediately opened his friends list, spotting the Good Corpse’s avatar flashing.

After opening the chat box, the messages from the Good Corpse appeared before Jiang Liu’s eyes.

"Taoist friend, the Soul-Returning Spell has revived Long Eyebrow True Man!"

Seeing this message from the Good Corpse, with the matter already settled, Jiang Liu secretly sighed in relief.

Luckily, the timely message from Sha Wujing allowed me to immediately hand over the Soul-Returning Spell Skill Book and Skill Bookcase, this Special Equipment, to the Good Corpse. Thus, in time to use the Soul-Returning Spell.

Otherwise, if Long Eyebrow True Man had been dead for more than an hour, the Soul-Returning Spell would be useless for resurrection, making his revival exceedingly difficult.

Receiving the message that Long Eyebrow has been revived, Jiang Liu naturally sighed with relief and secretly nodded to himself.

Although it’s unexpected that the Empress used a strategy to lure the tiger away from the mountain and then targeted Long Eyebrow, this event was beyond Jiang Liu’s expectations.

But since the Empress did this, Long Eyebrow should be aware after his revival, right?

This serves as significant assistance in winning over Long Eyebrow for himself, doesn’t it?

At least, to a certain extent, both sides have a common enemy, right?

After internally relaxing a little, Jiang Liu naturally let go of his previous unsettled mind and continued to enjoy the Glycyrrhiza Garden.

Under Zixia’s introduction, Jiang Liu realized that these exotic herbs each possessed magical effects.

"Empress..." Just as everyone was playing in the Glycyrrhiza Garden, suddenly a fairy appeared, directly approaching the Empress.

Then, this fairy whispered something softly into the Empress’s ear.

This brought an expression of joy to the Empress’s face.

"Hmm, although things indeed took an unexpected turn, fortunately, anticipating a contingency, I had my attendant follow to the Lower Realm, and the task is finally completed!" Listening to the fairy, the Empress felt very pleased, nodding subtly.

At this moment, Jiang Liu and the Empress both relaxed.

Because they both felt that the tasks they sought to accomplish had succeeded...
