Chapter 393 The Three Little Ones’ Thoughts
On the Three Kings Ridge.
The three brothers, the Lion King, the Treasure Elephant King, and the Black Eagle King, sat together with solemn expressions.
Before Li Chu left last time, he gave them another task.
The yellow tiger recognized Li Chu because it had a portrait of Li Chu on it. But it was far away in the Golden State in the north, and Li Chu had never been here. Why did the portrait get here? After some inquiries, I found out that almost all the larger mountains in the Golden State had this portrait, which came from Sarutobi Mountain.
There is also a reward. Anyone who sees the person in the portrait and captures him to Mount Sarutobi or kills him and brings his head to see him will receive a generous reward.
This is also the reason why the yellow-spotted tiger ordered to capture Li Chu at the first sight.
But no demon knew the reason behind this.
So after developing these three brothers into subordinates, in addition to investigating information related to Utsunomiya at any time, Li Chu also asked them to find out why Sarutobi San was targeting him.
After all, it is not an ordinary place.
If we were to choose the second-ranked monster force in the Golden State, there would probably be many different opinions and it would be difficult to determine.
But if we talk about the most powerful one, it is undoubtedly Sarutobiyama.
It can even be said that without Mount Sarutobi, there would be no Golden State.
The three major demon gathering places in the world are all built with at least one ancestor-level demon as the core.
For example, the ancestral python of Mingyue Township, the ancestral bird of Phoenix Island, and the ancestral ape of Golden State.
These beings are just like the famous Huaizu in the Heluo Dynasty, all of whom are super monsters that have survived for countless years. Such beings are also necessary to maintain the order of this world.
Sarutobi Mountain is where the ancestor monkey is.
Of course, the old man has long since left the world and has not appeared in public for many years. Now the real masters of the mountain should be his children and grandchildren.
"Master Xiao Li is indeed worthy of being a deity. He would never mess with people on earth, but only with disasters in heaven."
King Xuan Diao shook his head and sighed before he spoke.
"What have we found out? Don't keep us in suspense, third brother." The Lion King urged impatiently.
In fact, other things are not so urgent.
But this matter concerns Li Chu's life, and its life is in Li Chu's hands. If Li Chu and Sarutobi really have a deadly feud, then it will be difficult for them to survive.
"Okay, I'll tell you right away." Black Eagle King said, "Why did Sarutobi Mountain offer a reward for Taoist Xiao Li? The reason behind it..."
"The hundred or so little demons under my command made inquiries from various sources and finally got the news from a small leader of Mount Sarutobi. This bounty was actually issued by Prince Shen!"
"Prince Shen?" King Baoxiang was surprised and puzzled.
The ancestor ape had dozens of sons and hundreds of grandchildren. Among them, the one with the purest bloodline, the most favored, and the highest status was given the title of prince.
It can be said that, barring any unexpected events, Prince Shin will definitely be the successor of Sarutobi in the future.
"This is not good..." The Lion King frowned and asked, "But Prince Shen is not very old, and Taoist Xiao Li has never been to Golden State. How could they become enemies?"
"Well..." King Xuandiao lowered his voice and said, "It is said that Sarutobi had arranged a marriage for Prince Shen before. The other party was a descendant of the mysterious Moon Ancestor of Mingyue Township. However, after the marriage was finalized, the lady suddenly regretted the engagement and simply ran away."
"Prince Shen had met that young lady and was quite attracted to her. She was deeply hurt by his breaking off the engagement. It is said that he even sneaked out... and went to the territory of the Heluo Dynasty to meet the young lady in person, but she said she didn't like him the way he was. He asked her what kind of lady she liked, but she only showed him a portrait, and he gave up."
"It wanted to find the person in the portrait and vent its hatred. But it was soon found by the elders and taken back to Sarutobi Mountain for custody. It had no choice but to release the portrait and offer a reward throughout the Golden State."
"hiss……"
After hearing this, the other two demon kings were all amazed.
"This matter..." Baoxiang King stroked his forehead and said, "To put it mildly, it's just the mischief of the younger generation. To put it seriously, it's the hatred of having his wife stolen from him. It's hard to say what the attitude of the Great Ape King is..."
The Great Ape King is the supreme ruler of Mount Sarutobi when the Ancestral Ape is absent, and he is also the father of Prince Shin.
"What junior is making trouble?" The Lion King glared at it. "Prince Shen's grandson is considered a junior, but can Taoist Master Li be considered a junior?"
"Huh?" The two younger brothers looked at it in surprise.
Then the Lion King said, "How many times have I warned you to treat Taoist Xiao Li as your own father? Have you forgotten again?"
"Brother..." King Xuan Diao was quite helpless, "That little Taoist priest can only monitor our movements, but can't eavesdrop. There's no need... to be so exaggerated, right?"
"Yes." Baoxiang Wang also seemed to have some opinions. "We were originally living here happily and carefree, but suddenly he came and fed us that poison and asked us to do things for him. Even if we were forced to do so... there is no need to worship him from the bottom of our hearts, right? This is like... recognizing a thief as your father..."
"hehe……"
Hearing their complaints, the Lion King was not dissatisfied. Instead, he shook his head and chuckled twice, looking at his two younger brothers who were almost three thousand years old in total.
"You two are still too young."
King Baoxiang and King Xuandiao both looked at it curiously, wanting to hear what it had to say.
"You only know that Taoist Xiao Li controls and monitors us, and is a threat to us." It said with confidence, "Have you ever thought that he could be our opportunity?"
"Opportunity?" The Precious Elephant King blinked. "Opportunity for reincarnation?"
The Lion King glared at it as if it were a fool, then turned to look at the Black Eagle King, "Third brother, you have a quick mind, you speak."
King Xuan Diao nodded in realization.
"I see. I don't deserve your praise. If you hadn't said it, I wouldn't have thought of it."
It smiled and said, "Brother, you are right. This Taoist priest Li is not the reincarnation of a great being. He has such a high level of cultivation at such a young age. Not only is he extremely terrifying for the demon race, he is also a heaven-defying existence for the human race. Such a person... has a promising future."
"Third brother really understands my feelings."
The Lion King nodded in satisfaction: "You and I have practiced for more than a thousand years, and we have already reached the limit of our talents. Now there are only two paths before us. Either we continue to stay in the Three Kings Ridge and become a demon king of some size until we die. Or, we find a big leg to cling to, so that we can have the possibility of further progress."
"And Taoist Xiao Li, his talent is endless... Even if he is not yet, he will soon become a great being at the top level in the world. With such a big and thick leg in front of you, aren't you tempted?"
There was a strong hint of temptation in its words.
"Brothers, as long as we perform well this time and gain his respect, we will have a promising future. Even... if one day in the future, Taoist Xiao Li becomes a true immortal, I won't be surprised. At that time, if one person achieves enlightenment, everyone will benefit..."
Hearing it say that, Bao Xiang Wang also slapped his thigh and said, "Great!"
"Brother is really a man of great foresight. That little Taoist priest probably couldn't have imagined that..." King Xuandiao complimented him, "He thought he was taking us from Sanwangling under his command, but at the same time, he also wanted us to be his protector."
"That's right!" The Lion King laughed and said, "This time, no matter what, we must hold on to this big leg and let him bring his talent to our Three Kings Ridge!"
At this point, the three brothers looked at each other and smiled happily.
A joyful atmosphere suddenly filled the cave.
After laughing for a while, Bao Xiang Wang suddenly said, "After all this talk, what should we do about the conflict between Taoist Xiao Li and Sarutobi? Who should we help?"
"Forehead……"
The Lion King's smile froze for a moment.
After a pause, it looked at the Black Eagle King: "Third brother, what do you think?"
The Black Eagle King seemed to be in a dilemma. He thought for a while and said, "In fact, this matter has nothing to do with us. Why not tell Taoist Xiao Li about this matter? He just asked us to help investigate it. It is not a disgrace to give him the result now. If he wants to deal with Sarutobi Mountain, we really can't help him..."
"That's right." The Lion King nodded and said, "Compared to them, we are just a small lion, a small elephant and a small bird..."
"What can we do?"
In the huge cave, the "three little ones" snuggled up to each other, and suddenly they all felt a little weak and helpless.
…
"A-choo..."
Li Chu sneezed lightly and handsomely, knowing that someone was probably thinking of him again.
But there is no time to take care of it.
There were already dozens of people seeking medicine who had been driven away by Guanghan Sect. Some were crying and wailing, some were making unreasonable demands, and some were pissing their pants in fear... but there was not a single one who succeeded.
Seeing that it was almost his turn, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Asking for medicine...
It seems difficult, doesn't it? When I write short chapters, I often feel that there are not that many things to say, and it seems a bit short... When I write long chapters, you always say that I update alone... It's so difficult.
