Please Be a Demon

Opening as a reborn General Curtain-Rolling exiled to the Flowing Sand River, just when he was about to endure the Heavenly Punishment of ten thousand swords piercing his heart, he awakened a God-t...

Chapter 169 I, Old Sun, also want to step into Daluo

Li Jing feigned ignorance and said, "Why do you say that, Master Gou? If someone wants to harm you, His Majesty is not far away. You can go and complain."

Gou Tianshi was extremely haggard and terrified. He said, "Don't be ridiculous, Li Tianwang. I listened to your advice and targeted Sha Chen, but he has already become a Daluo Jinxian. The court also wants to decree his pacification. If he ascends to heaven, will there be any hope for me to survive?"

Li Jing scolded him, "Nonsense! When have you ever worked for me? If you dare to say that again, I will sue you for slander."

Then, Gou Tianshi shook his head repeatedly, "Your humble servant remembered it wrongly. It's your humble servant's fault. Please save me, Li Tianwang."

Li Jing snorted and said, "Shachen's fate has already been decided. I think he is tired of the hardship of the Liusha River and will definitely agree to his fate."

"But you don't need to worry too much, because even if he ascends to heaven, he won't have a very high position, and most of them are empty positions, so they can't threaten you."

Gou Tianshi was still worried and said, "I'm afraid he'll kill me on the way."

Li Jing chuckled, "Do you think the Heavenly Rules are just for show? He killed an official of Heaven without authorization. Even if Shachen is a Daluo Jinxian, the Heavenly Rules will not forgive him."

Master Gou Tianshi was half-believing and half-doubting, but after being comforted by Li Jing's kind words, he felt relieved and retreated.

But he was still worried.

After he left, Li Jing had a faint smile on his face, and a man walked over to him. It was Wang Lingguan.

Wang Lingguan said, "Li Tianwang has great skills."

Li Jing asked, "Why do you say that, Lord Wang?"

Wang Lingguan chuckled, "They were able to dig into the corners of the Thunder Department, and even tricked Gou Tianshi into a loop."

Li Jing's heart trembled, but he remained calm and said, "Lord Wang, please don't talk nonsense. You are wrongly accusing me."

Wang Lingguan said, "Is that so? Master Gou of the Thunder Department is willing to risk his life for you, presumably because he received your promise and benefits. But what you're doing is unkind. He must be terrified of the sandstorm, yet you won't help him resolve the disaster."

Li Jing said nothing.

Wang Lingguan continued, "After Shachen ascends to heaven, the Heavenly Laws can still restrain him. However, if he kills Tianshi Gou, the Heavenly Laws will not kill him. Instead, they will throw him back into the Flowing Sand River, which will become an opportunity to advance his journey to the West."

He smiled, looked at Li Jing, and said, "Li Tianwang, when Tianshi Gou dies, you will become the key person to promote the opportunity to obtain the scriptures. Your merits are immeasurable."

Then he laughed out loud. Li Jing was about to explain, but Wang Lingguan had already left.

Li Jing frowned and his eyes flickered.

Returned to the palace.

Before Li Jing could even take a sip of water, his subordinate Harpoon came and reported what had happened recently.

Jin Zha is still hunting down the person who led the pilgrim astray, but he has gained nothing.

Mu Zha led people all over the world to hunt down Red Boy, while Guanyin restrained the Bull Demon King, so that there was no movement in the Flaming Mountain.

Both sons are very motivated at work.

Li Jing was very satisfied, and then ordered: "Is there any news from Lingshan?"

The Harpoon General said, "The Buddha of Lingshan, Randeng, has sent someone to deliver the news."

Li Jing was stunned for a moment, then delighted, and said, "I think the teacher has some advice for you."

Then he checked the message and his expression became serious.

"No wonder Shachen rose so quickly. It turns out he might have received support from Master Tongtian. However, I'm not 100% sure, Teacher."

Then he looked around, but found that no one could help him analyze the situation.

He waved his hand and let the harpoon go down.

Then he murmured, "If this is the case, Shachen seems to have become the object of competition among all parties. I can't believe that he was originally the most insignificant among the pilgrims, but he has become such a popular figure."

Li Jing had a chuckle on his face and said, "I will definitely subdue you."

Then he shouted, "Go and call the fourth young lady."

In the mortal world, there is the Five Finger Mountain.

Sun Wukong, who was drinking with Shachen's clone Li Bai, suddenly frowned and looked to the west.

He was surprised and asked, "Who is going through the tribulation?"

Li Bai naturally knew that it was his original body that was undergoing the tribulation.

He said, "Shachen, the former Curtain-Rolling General of the Flowing Sand River, has just survived the tribulation of becoming a Daluo Golden Immortal."

Sun Wukong was stunned for a moment. It had been many years since he last heard this name.

Now I heard it again, and I couldn’t react for a moment.

Li Bai just smiled.

Sun Wukong immediately felt his teeth itching and said, "It turned out to be that River God Shachen that outsiders used to compare me to?"

Li Bai corrected him: "He is not a river god."

Sun Wukong said, "It's not important. What's important is that he actually entered the Golden Immortal Realm before me!"

He was unhappy.

The long-standing pride was broken at this moment.

He patted Li Bai on the shoulder and said, "Old Li, you told me to keep a low profile and accumulate strength here, but now everyone has caught up with them, and I, Old Sun, can't even say a word. It's really frustrating."

Li Bai, Shachen's clone, was suddenly frightened.

He quickly asked, "Great Sage, what do you want to do?"

Sun Wukong roared to the heavens, "Today, I, Sun Wukong, will also step into the realm of Daluo Jinxian!!"

Suddenly.

The earth shook and the sky collapsed.
