Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong-Chapter 751 - 752: Say It and Do It (3rd update!)
"I, I was clearly in another dimension, how could you possibly..."
The Hidden Emperor kept coughing up blood, with the strength from the Qilin War Spear continuously flowing into his body, destroying his vitality and completely dispersing his gathered strength that he wanted to use to break free.
"My Qilin Pearl can reveal the barriers of space; as long as the nodes of the space barriers are exposed, breaking them is not difficult at all!"
Tian Lin said coldly, "In this world, no power is absolutely invincible. You are too arrogant!"
"I, I..."
The Hidden Emperor opened his mouth, wanting to say something else, when suddenly a burst of intense light exploded from within him, and his body suddenly exploded, reducing him to dust.
"I said, I would dismember you to avenge my sister, and I always do what I say!"
Tian Lin’s face was full of severity, and with a wave of his hand, he captured a faint light that fled from the exploded body of the Hidden Emperor. This was the Hidden Emperor’s Primordial Spirit. Although his physical body was destroyed, his Primordial Spirit still remained and could be reborn if it found a suitable body to possess.
Tian Lin knew this very well!
His goal was to completely annihilate the Hidden Emperor. How could he possibly give him a chance to rebirth through possession?
"I was wrong, please spare me, I will never dare to do it again!"
The Primordial Spirit, held in Tian Lin’s grasp and unable to escape, caused the Hidden Emperor to utterly panic. His physical body, which he had cultivated for ten thousand years, was destroyed just like that. Now, he had nothing left but this cluster of Primordial Spirit. If the Primordial Spirit were also destroyed, he would truly be annihilated!
"Spare you? Did you think of sparing my sister when you extracted her Lifeblood Essence? Someone like you, a scum, does not deserve to live in this world! Perish!"
Tian Lin spoke, and suddenly a blazing fire burst from his palm. It was his Qilin Fire, which the Primordial Spirit feared most, especially as it was being scorched by Tian Lin’s native Divine Fire. The Hidden Emperor couldn’t withstand it and, in a scream, turned into flying ashes, completely annihilated.
Rains of blood descended from the heavens above, and the powerhouses of the Three Realms all felt it and looked up.
The heavens wept blood. The heavens and earth mourned together. Another Saint Realm powerhouse had fallen!
From the earlier disturbances, it seemed to be from the direction of Penglai Fairy Island. It appeared that the Hidden Emperor, a Saint Realm powerhouse of the Hidden Clan, had also fallen at the hands of Sun Wukong.
The Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court had earlier announced a campaign against the Hidden Clan, and everyone across the Three Realms knew that the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court was attacking Penglai Fairy Island. Comparing the earlier power disturbances coming from that direction, it was self-evident who had fallen.
For a moment, the leaders of various forces could not help but shiver inwardly, and their awe of the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court and Great Sage Equalling Heaven, Sun Wukong, grew significantly. Such a formidable force was best not provoked; otherwise, one might end up like the Hidden Emperor, completely obliterated!
Having killed the Hidden Emperor, Tian Lin looked at the blood rain falling from the sky, but he did not show much excitement. His sister Tianyue had indeed been saved, but she had lost too much Lifeblood Essence and it was uncertain when she would awaken.
"Nicely done, you really do what you say, very good, very good!"
A round of applause came from the side. Tian Lin turned and saw Sun Wukong’s figure emerging in the distance, "I didn’t expect your Qilin Pearl to have such a skill to illuminate space barriers; Old Sun has to raise his opinion of you again!"
"You flatter me, Great Saint!"
Tian Lin shook his head, "Had it not been for the Great Saint having fought him earlier and injured him, I might not have been able to kill him so easily. Thank you!"
"No need for thanks! I didn’t intentionally help you; it just happened to be that way!"
Sun Wukong waved his hand and asked, "How is your sister?"
"Her life is not in danger, just that she has lost too much Lifeblood Essence and needs some time to recover."
Tian Lin sighed.
After thinking for a while, Sun Wukong flipped his hand, and a gourd of Peach of Immortality Wine appeared in his hand, which he tossed to Tian Lin, "This is Peach of Immortality Wine brewed from nine-thousand-year-old Peaches of Immortality. It should help your sister’s injuries."
Tian Lin caught the Peach of Immortality Wine, opened the stopper, and upon smelling it, his eyes brightened. He nodded in gratitude to Sun Wukong, "Thank you, I owe you a favor. What would you have me do?"
"What would I have you do? I can’t really think of anything at the moment. You just owe me one for now, and I’ll tell you when I’ve thought of something!"
Sun Wukong waved his hand indifferently and turned to fly towards Penglai Fairy Island. He had helped Tian Lin on a whim and hadn’t expected any repayment. But since Tian Lin offered to return the favor, there was no need to refuse, especially since a favor from a Heavenly Dao Saint was quite valuable, even though they were not rare in this era.
"Great Saint!"
"Boss!"
Sun Wukong descended from the clouds above Penglai Fairy Island, and Luo Bai and the others came up to report to him.
"Boss, the Hidden Clan has been completely eradicated; not one remains!"
"Great Saint, the ley lines of Penglai Fairy Island are intact and undamaged!"
Listening to Luo Bai and Guanyin’s reports, Sun Wukong nodded with satisfaction, "Very good! Well done! The Hidden Emperor has been annihilated in body and spirit, and from now on, among the Myriad Races, there will no longer be any race known as the Hidden Clan!"
Standing nearby, the Three-Star Deities shuddered inwardly, gaining a deeper understanding of the ruthlessness of Sun Wukong and the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court. When it came to enemies, they truly showed no mercy!
"Fortune Star, Prosperity Star, Longevity Star, I have reclaimed Penglai Fairy Island for you, but the island’s defenses are too weak. Now that the Myriad Races have returned, and everyone is vying for Cave Heaven and Blessed Lands, you might not be able to defend it if others attack next time…"
Sun Wukong stopped short, but the Three-Star Deities were not fools. They quickly understood what he was implying and immediately stated their position, "Great Saint, we are now part of the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court. Naturally, Penglai Fairy Island is the territory of the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court; you may dispose of it as you see fit! We simply need a place to live safely!"
"Ah, it’s not quite like that! I’m not the sort who seizes nests from others!"
Sun Wukong shook his head and said, "What I mean is, Penglai Fairy Island should still belong to the Three Stars to reside in, but we need to enhance its defensive power. How about this? I appoint you as the Three Marshals of Penglai, each commanding an army of a thousand, under your leadership, stationed on this Penglai Fairy Island. From now on, you will be responsible for their training and maneuvers. How does that sound?"
"Great Saint, are you serious?"
The Three-Star Deities were stunned. Sun Wukong was not only not reclaiming the island but also granting them military command. Were they dreaming?
"I do not jest! Do you think I would joke about this with you?"
Sun Wukong glanced at the Three-Star Deities, slightly frowning, "So, are you willing to accept the command?"
"Willing! Of course, willing! We are grateful for the Great Saint’s grace!"
