Journey to the West: Break the entire Western Heaven!

Hearing this, everyone was stunned!

The Mount-Removing Sage was one of the few among the seven Great Saints who excelled in both letters and arms, he hardly took action, but his strength was recognized by all; he was also a wise advisor.

The Mount-Removing Sage continued, "The situation was special before, and I couldn't speak up. Now what I want to say is, don't you think that person came a bit too easily? And also at an inopportune time? The Celestial Realm is high above us; if they really disapproved of that bald man, would they need us to take action? The Celestial Realm is not lacking in experts!"

The Vanguard Officer said, "Big brother, just speak frankly."

The Mount-Removing Sage replied, "All right, I'll speak frankly then. Do you remember the incident with the monkey? When the monkey made trouble initially, the Jade Emperor wanted to send someone to suppress him directly. It was only after Taibai Jinxing intervened to save him that he was invited to the heavens to become Bi-Ma-Wen. Later, when he caused more trouble, the Jade Emperor's intention was to suppress him directly again! He even sent him to the Immortal Slaying Stage, he truly had the intention to kill.

The monkey's background, as you all know, is one of the four monkeys of Chaos and was born from the Five-Colored Stone; his origin is significant, and he has formidable backing...

And his master is mysterious and inscrutable, no one among the heavens can deduce his identity, which has already revealed the other party's background.

With such a background, would the Jade Emperor kill just like that? Would such a Celestial Realm really care about a bald man?"

The Demon King Jiaomo of the Covering Sea Great Saint said, "I've considered this as well. But that royal decree..."

The Lion Camel King shook his head and said, "That royal decree, if you say it's precious, it is the hand-written script of the Great Emperor, supremely dignified; if you say it's worthless, it's just toilet paper. As long as you are not afraid of death, forging one isn't too hard."

The Macaque King exclaimed, "Lion, are you saying that royal decree is fake? But that Taoist shadow earlier, that was the authentic Qi of Western Geng Metal!"

The Lion Camel King said, "I don't know if it's true or fake, I'm just analyzing the situation.

The Celestial Realm being so powerful yet asking us scattered demons to take action, isn't that strange?

There are only two possibilities that could lead them to make such a choice, one is that they are inconvenient to act, and the other is that they dare not act.

If it's inconvenient to act, it means that the other party has a strong backer, the kind the Celestial Realm doesn't want to provoke karma with, so they want us to take the fall.

As for not daring to act but still letting us do it, then it's not the bald man they want to kill, but us!"

Hearing this, a group of Demon Kings immediately broke out into a cold sweat.

The Demon King Jiaomo said, "Continue your analysis."

The Lion Camel King analyzed, "In my view, this may not be the will of the Great Emperors at all, but rather someone forging a royal decree, seeking to use one to kill another!"

"If it's not the Celestial Realm, who could it be?" the Vanguard Officer asked curiously.

The Lion Camel King bared his teeth and said, "Actually, it's not hard to analyze.

Firstly, we are killed, and the other party gains benefits;

Secondly, he isn't afraid of the consequences of forging a royal decree being uncovered.

Those guys from the Taoist sect, although they are all about righteousness, they are also inactive. As long as we do not commit heinous actions under their noses, they can't be bothered to kill us. In their eyes, there is no difference between us and humans; they kill those among humans who murder the innocent, and they kill us if we slaughter people, there's no difference, truly all beings are equal.

So, they don't care whether we live or die, they only care if we are good demons or not.

Apart from the Taoist sect, the only ones left who can withstand a blow from the Celestial Realm are only the bald ones from Mount Meru and the great haired ones.

If we die, they can completely step forward and claim that we demons have bloodstained executioners tainted by human blood, and they are enforcing justice on behalf of Heaven!

I have just deduced that, as far as human morality goes, not one of us demons would die unjustly.

This would be a great merit for Buddhism as well as for the Heavenly Court.

By then, the whole nation would be cheering, all things glorified.

Once Buddhism transfers the merit to the Celestial Court, the Celestial Emperor could not blame them anymore.

"Killing us yet not gaining any merit, doesn't seem like it benefits them, right?" The Macaque King was puzzled.

The Lion Camel King continued, "No benefit? Does Buddhism's journey to the West have any benefit?"

"That's to facilitate their preaching in the Central Plains... Could it be?" The Macaque King suddenly realized.

The Lion Camel King nodded, "Exactly, what they want is good reputation! With this good reputation, Buddhism's entry into the Central Plains would just be a matter of course.

Now, the journey to the West has turned into a mess because of that fake Tang Sanzang; they've made a bold move, sacrificing our lives for the grand rise of Buddhism!

This is bloody sacrifice!"

Hearing this, a cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of all the Demon Kings, their robes soaked through...

The Jiao Demon King said, "Lion, since you saw this early on, why not speak up sooner?"

The Lion Camel King shook his head, "Back then, when everyone had arrived, what was I supposed to say? Should I tell them they were here just for some excitement? Besides, Buddhism must have been watching that spot, and if I'd stood up... I'm afraid they would've had ways to deal with me too. Plus, there was that aura similar to that of the Western Celestial Emperor from the Taiji Palace of the West...

Such a convincing aura, none of you could tell real from fake, and I should've jumped out to argue?

Damn it, the first one who would've beaten me up would probably have been you guys!"

The few Demon Kings suddenly looked embarrassed, and thinking back on that scenario, they probably would've given him a beating indeed.

"Big brother, now that the situation has come to this, is there any way to remedy it? You can't just watch your brothers fall into a trap, right?" the Macaque King asked.

The Yu Rui King said, "Big brother, since you've spoken, surely you must have a solution, right?"

The Lion Camel King said, "To break this game is not difficult, later, let's do this!"

After the Lion Camel King finished speaking, the eyes of the Demon Kings lit up, "Good, let's do exactly that! Ha ha ha... offend neither party!"

However, the Yu Rui King suddenly said, "The plan is good, but I still want to challenge Sun Wukong."

The Lion Camel King laughed, "That's fine!"

Just then, the Jiao Demon King muttered, "The Rampaging Demon King, as the Vanguard Officer, has been gone for so long, why haven't we seen him return to report? We can't even feel his presence from afar... He was supposed to find a good place to set up camp and wait for us to converge, could he have run away?"

"That… could that be the Rampaging Demon King?" The Macaque King, shading his eyes, pointed towards the distant opposite side, where a giant crab lay.

The Jiao Demon King looked closely and muttered, "He looks like it, but the color is wrong. Why is he red? And he's steaming..."

As they approached, they finally saw clearly, it was indeed the Rampaging Demon King, only he seemed to have been cooked!

The crab's empty shell was placed on the ground, and inside the shell sat several people, cooling off.

Those people were precisely the disciples of Tang Sanzang whom they were looking for!

The expression on the Jiao Demon King's face darkened instantly: "This... Is this the work of humans?"
