Chapter 474 Duobao's Journey to the West
"Finished with work?" Chang Hao walked to Yuan Shi's side. He had severed the three flowers of Yuan Shi's disciples, and even if he dealt with them one by one, it wouldn't have been this quick.
Yuanshi nodded and looked at Ziwu, "So that's the one you selected over several days?"
Chang Hao nodded, "Until a better candidate appears, let's go with him. It's all about timing and luck. Ziwu appearing before me now is also his good fortune."
"Since you've made the decision, then do it. If you're wrong, just change it." Yuanshi didn't care much about this.
"Does your elder brother have any complaints about you?" Chang Hao coughed lightly, realizing that what the two of them had done was rather unkind.
"You know perfectly well why you're asking. Brother, you're furious. You have to protect me." Yuanshi walked around behind Chang Hao and pulled him into his arms from behind. The auspicious clouds of the heavens surrounded the two of them. When they reappeared, they had returned to the Yin Shang royal palace.
"It's fine. His Majesty dotes on you. As long as you don't get jealous, His Majesty will always dote on you and protect you." Chang Hao vividly remembers the days when he was caught between Hongjun and Yuanshi. Even if he was willing to mediate, he would still have a headache.
Not to mention his relatives and friends in Heaven, and his mother and aunt are not to be trifled with either.
"Once Tongtian comes out, His Majesty will still protect you." Chang Hao held many of Tongtian's magical treasures in his hands. If Tongtian wanted to go back, he would never dare to go against him. A toothless tiger is at most a big cat and is not worth worrying about.
Thinking of Tongtian, Chang Hao couldn't help but think of Duobao, who paid the price for Tongtian's actions.
"How is Duobao adapting?" Chang Hao silently mourned for Duobao.
“My elder brother has converted Duobao to Buddhism, and Duobao has already gone to the West,” Yuanshi glanced at Chang Hao. “I have sent Yun Zhongzi to protect Duobao. In the future, Yun Zhongzi will be Duobao’s talisman as he roams freely in the West.”
"Anyway, Yun Zhongzi is just an idle person in the Heavenly Court. If he can help the Jie Sect, it can be considered making the best use of him." Yun Zhongzi is Zhen Yuanzi's accomplice. Chang Hao only needs to ensure that he lives. As for how he lives, that is Zhen Yuanzi's responsibility.
"Let's not talk about them. It's been so many days since we last met. I miss Yuanshi terribly. Is your heart the same as mine?" Yuanshi took Changhao's hand, his gaze tender and affectionate.
Chang Hao's eyes darted around, avoiding eye contact. He was so busy that he didn't even think about this saint.
"You heartless bastard," Yuanshi picked Chang Hao up and carried him toward the inner hall. "No wonder I was distracted in Kunlun. It turns out you were the one who made me restless."
Even though they were already secretly together, Yuan Shi was still anxious and fearful that one day he would wake up to find the world turned upside down.
Chang Hao felt even more guilty. In his relationship with Yuan Shi, Yuan Shi had always been the one who dared to love, fight, and take responsibility in the pursuit of love, while he was in a passive position and even panicked at times.
"Humans often say that absence makes the heart grow fonder, but unfortunately, I haven't felt that way." Yuanshi placed Chang Hao on the couch.
"Next time, I'll remember to think of you." Unfortunately, Chang Hao himself felt guilty saying this, so how could he possibly convince Yuan Shi to believe him?
Yuanshi, eager to see if Chang Hao also reciprocated his feelings, whispered in Chang Hao's ear, "Humans also say that sexual intercourse can enhance feelings. The previous viewpoint is wrong. Let's try this one..."
Chang Hao shuddered. Although it was a pleasant experience, he was still apprehensive.
“Yuanshi, an immortal should uphold his immortal heart and be pure and free from desires.” Chang Hao stared at Yuanshi suspiciously, suspecting that Yuanshi had been manipulating him all along to soften his heart and make it easier for him to do whatever he wanted.
Yuan Shi silently looked back and saw Chang Hao's eyes reflecting his image. A sense of satisfaction filled his heart. The inner hall was empty, yet the ambiguity was undeniable, and a warm fragrance filled the air...
………………
Surrounded by all the surviving junior brothers and sisters on Kunlun Mountain, Duobao wanted to quit and join Chang Hao, but he couldn't bring himself to do it. He was the last hope of the Jie Sect.
Hoping that his master, who had been imprisoned by the Dao Ancestor, would come out and turn the tide, Duobao was better off doing the work himself.
"Senior Brother..." The Twelve Golden Immortals stood before Duobao, unusually obedient, their eyes conveying a hidden plea for help, begging their Senior Brother to spare their lives.
Duobao's head started to ache again. His second master told him to pick one, but how was he supposed to choose? He felt that whichever junior brother he picked the next moment, that junior brother would burst into tears.
"Fellow disciples, the journey to the west is a voluntary act. Are you sure you are acting voluntarily?" Duobao looked at them and thought this didn't seem like a voluntary act at all; it seemed more like they were being threatened by their second senior uncle.
"Yes, junior brothers volunteered to go west with senior brother." The twelve Golden Immortals said in unison, not daring to say no. If they dared to say no, their master would expel them from Kunlun, and they would have a hard time returning to Kunlun to catch their breath.
It would be better to listen to the master and have a dual identity and dual faith. Although it would be tough, cultivation is inherently difficult. They had not made any progress for many years, and during the Investiture of the Gods, the Heavenly Emperor even cut off their three flowers...
Having suffered such a severe blow, if no extraordinary measures are taken, he will be forever trapped in the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, unable to make any further progress.
Duo Bao's chubby face, which was always smiling, stopped smiling; he really didn't want to take care of him.
“Senior Brother, there is no need to worry. Master has ordered me to protect you every step of the way until you succeed.” Yun Zhongzi stepped forward and stated his mission. “Junior Brother bears a heavy responsibility; how can I not go?”
Duobao stared blankly. "Second Master Uncle, what have I done to offend you? Please speak plainly. There's no need for such roundabout ways to punish me. I believe my cultivation is no less than Yun Zhongzi's. If we're truly in danger, who will save whom?"
"The two Western sages are gentle and polite, and always ready to help. If any Western believers make things difficult for us when we arrive in the West, my junior brother will definitely step forward and call upon the two Western sages to come and save us," Yun Zhongzi assured, patting his chest.
Guang Chengzi and the others glanced over. "Junior Brother Yun Zhongzi, aren't you afraid of biting off more than you can chew? How could the two Western Saints possibly come whenever they call? If they go to usurp our place, the two Saints will be lucky if they don't crush them to death."
Duobao pondered for a moment, "Junior Brother Yunzhongzi, are you sure this is Second Master Uncle's intention?" If this is true, and Second Master Uncle really sent Junior Brother Yunzhongzi to 'protect' him, then Junior Brother Yunzhongzi is truly a talisman.
“That’s right. Master told me not to be polite. When we get to the West, we should treat it as if we’ve returned to Wuzhuang Temple. Take whatever you want and do whatever you want by ordering the Western Sect.” Yun Zhongzi wasn’t stupid. Yuanshi didn’t use pedantic language or say things that could only be understood implicitly. Yun Zhongzi couldn’t have misunderstood his master’s meaning.
