The Monkey King grinned, revealing a row of sharp fangs, and said in a loud voice, "Haha, if you can pass my test, I can release them now. If you can't, you'll stay here and cultivate until you have enough strength to deal with that earth-burrowing beast."
Ye Li asked in confusion, "What kind of test?"
The Monkey King trembled slightly and instantly moved in front of Ye Li.
His sharp eyes scrutinized Ye Li from head to toe for a while before he spoke, "It's very simple. Fight this Monkey King, and if you win, the seal will be broken."
Ye Li asked, puzzled, "Who made this rule? Isn't that idiotic?"
Upon hearing this, the Monkey King's eyes widened, and he glared at Ye Li, shouting, "Hey, this rule was set by me, the Monkey King! What do you mean by that?"
Faced with the Monkey King's questioning, Ye Li remained fearless and continued, "Before challenging the void monsters, we have to fight you first. Wouldn't that be a pointless waste of our strength?"
"In that case, even if we eventually manage to defeat you and break the seal, we'll probably be powerless against the void monsters!"
Upon hearing Ye Li's words, the Monkey King was taken aback at first, then scratched his head and nodded thoughtfully, saying, "Hmm...that does make some sense!"
Ye Li said, "Right!"
The Monkey King nodded slightly in agreement and said, "In that case, you should stay here and repair the chain for 100 years, waiting for the monster to come to you. That will be when this void monster is at its weakest."
Without even thinking, Ye Li refused outright: "Brother Monkey, you should just forget about it. In 100 years, I'll be nothing but a skeleton. Where will I find the strength to fight the void monsters for you?"
The Monkey King placed his golden cudgel around his neck, rested his hands on the cudgel, turned his gaze to the little stone monkey, and said, "Even if you die, you still have this!"
Ye Li: (⊙-⊙)
The little stone monkey looked at the Monkey King, then at Ye Li, scratched his head, and said, "I'll listen to my master!"
Ye Li said, "Why don't you just remove the seal?"
The Monkey King shook his head vigorously, retorting firmly, "No, once the seal is broken, it will be a catastrophic disaster for Flower Fruit Mountain."
Ye Li tentatively asked, "Is there really no way to discuss this?"
The Monkey King firmly declared, "No discussion!"
Ye Li was still not giving up and continued to press, "Can't we discuss it?"
The Monkey King's eyes blazed: "Otherwise, you'll have to accept the test! There's no room for discussion!"
Ye Li sighed helplessly and said, "Alright, alright, then I'll accept the test."
As Ye Li spoke, he changed the subject, a slightly ingratiating smile on his face, and said, "However, in order for us to have more strength to deal with the void monsters later, could you go easy on us a little?"
Upon hearing this, the Monkey King's face darkened. He suddenly spun the golden cudgel that was resting behind his neck and slammed it heavily into the ground. He said seriously, "Boy, I advise you not to try anything funny. This is not a joke; we must take it seriously."
Seeing the Monkey King's resolute attitude, Ye Li knew that further words would be futile, so he sensibly nodded and muttered, "Alright, alright! Wait for me a moment!"
The Monkey King looked indifferent and said, "Just be ready."
Ye Li nodded quickly, then turned around and teleported to the back door of the luxury RV.
Open the car door and get in.
Jianjian, Xiao Ai, and Qicai all rushed over instantly.
Especially Xiao Ai, whose cute face was filled with an endearing expression, said in a sweet voice, "Master, you're finally back! I was so worried about you!"
Ye Li reached out and pinched Xiao Ai's round little face, then asked with a smile, "Did you miss me?"
"Uh-huh!"
Xiao Ai blinked her big, watery eyes and nodded vigorously.
Not to be outdone, Jianjian quickly chimed in, "Yes!"
They were afraid of being left behind.
Even the seven-colored creature nodded in a human-like manner, letting out an excited hiss.
"Alright, alright, I'll keep you company for a bit. Let's get down to business now!"
Ye Li smiled and released his grip on Xiao Ai's cheek, a serious look flashing in his eyes.
Xiao Ai immediately asked, "Master, what important matter is it?"
