Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong

"Counterattack, of course, we must counterattack!"

Shen Lang narrowed his eyes slightly, with a glint of cold light flashing through them,

"Not only must we counterattack, but we must launch a comprehensive counterattack!"

Shen Lang pointed to Sun Wukong and the Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor beside him, "These are my good brothers Sun Wukong and the Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor. They will also help this time, and we'll definitely bring down the Cangqiong Immortal Palace completely!"

"Thank you both, esteemed ones, for your assistance!"

Xiao Hu and the other generals, being insightful, immediately bowed and thanked Sun Wukong and the Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor upon hearing this.

Thus, Shen Lang took direct control of the military command in the Dark River region for the Heavenly Bird Dynasty, making Xiao Hu fully responsible for preparing the main army for combat.

Three days later, the entire army launched a full-scale assault on the main camp of the Cangqiong Immortal Palace in the Dark River region.

In this battle, Sun Wukong, the Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor, and Shen Lang all took action, directly beheading the highest combat power of the Cangqiong Immortal Palace, leaving the remaining soldiers in disarray.

Xiao Hu and the other generals led the elite forces and soldiers of the Heavenly Bird Dynasty in a massive sweep.

Half of the enemy was slaughtered, while the other half, terrified, knelt down, begging for mercy and were all taken under Xiao Hu and his command.

In this campaign, it can be said that the Cangqiong Immortal Palace was utterly defeated, with only a few escaping to report the news.

As soon as the news reached within the Cangqiong Immortal Palace, it caused a huge commotion, and Vice Hall Master Ling Xiao Immortal smashed the jade tea cup in his hand.

"Sun Wukong! It's Sun Wukong again! That damn guy!"

Ling Xiao Immortal sat in the grand hall, his face overcast.

Sun Wukong emerged from the Yuan Realm, and the grudges with the Cangqiong Immortal Palace date back a long time.

The informer from the Cangqiong Immortal Palace in the inner court of the Holy Book Academy, Hall Master Cang Lian, also fell at the hands of Sun Wukong.

Most of the experts from the Cangqiong Immortal Palace in the Desolate Divine Realm also encountered Sun Wukong and his friends, and none of them managed to return.

And now, Sun Wukong has directly launched an attack!

The Dark River region is a strategic military location, fought over by the Cangqiong Immortal Palace and the Heavenly Bird Dynasty for years, just on the verge of success, yet such a disaster occurred.

The intervention of Sun Wukong and the other two led to a significant rise in the combat effectiveness of the Heavenly Bird Dynasty, allowing them to fully seize the Dark River area, thus exposing all strongholds of the Cangqiong Immortal Palace to the artillery of the Heavenly Bird Dynasty.

From this point on, the Heavenly Bird Dynasty could advance or retreat at will, and the momentum of the Cangqiong Immortal Palace was completely suppressed.

Moreover, as the news spread, the reputation of the Cangqiong Immortal Palace drastically declined, significantly reducing the number of experts coming to join, while many defected to the Heavenly Bird Dynasty.

With such ebb and flow, the power of the Cangqiong Immortal Palace will inevitably be surpassed by the Heavenly Bird Dynasty once again.

By then, with the foundation of the Heavenly Bird Dynasty, the Cangqiong Immortal Palace may find it difficult to rise again.

"No, we can't let that Sun Wukong get away with this! We must completely crush him!"

Ling Xiao Immortal furrowed his brow tightly, suddenly gritted his teeth, and instructed the guards,

"Go, invite the Holy Son to come!"

Ling Xiao Immortal, as a Saint Divine Realm expert, certainly couldn't lower himself to deal with Sun Wukong, but the Holy Son was different.

The Holy Son, a Golden Divine Realm expert, was a rare prodigy. If he could crush Sun Wukong, it would surely greatly enhance the prestige of the Cangqiong Immortal Palace!

"Have you heard? At the Holy Book Academy, Sun Wukong, Shen Lang, and Hong Jun assisted the Heavenly Bird Dynasty in destroying the Cangqiong Immortal Palace's base in the Dark River area!"

"I heard long ago! Now that the Dark River area has become completely under the influence of the Heavenly Bird Dynasty."

"I hear the Heavenly Bird Dynasty is planning to take advantage of their victory to pursue, and the Cangqiong Immortal Palace will likely not fare well this time."

The news of the Heavenly Bird Dynasty's great victory in the Dark River region spread rapidly, with each party harboring their own schemes, most waiting to see the spectacle.

The battle in the Heavenly Bird Star Domain is one of the most significant among the four major star domains.

The conflict between the Heavenly Bird Dynasty and the Cangqiong Immortal Palace had long been a scenario of two tigers not sharing one mountain; either the east wind overcomes the west, or the west wind triumphs over the east.

In any case, only one will remain in the end!

In this era of great contention, no place is peaceful among the major star domains, especially the turbulence in the Heavenly Bird Star Domain.

The Heavenly Bird Dynasty striking the face of the Cangqiong Immortal Palace so fiercely would surely not be left unchallenged by the Cangqiong Immortal Palace!

The Cangqiong Immortal Palace will undoubtedly make a move; the Heavenly Bird Star Domain now offers quite a spectacle!

While various forces speculated on the Cangqiong Immortal Palace's next move, the first genius of the Cangqiong Immortal Palace, the Holy Son, had already received orders from Vice Hall Master Ling Xiao to head to the frontline.

The Holy Son of the Cangqiong Immortal Palace, like the Vajras Ape King in the Heavenly Ape Star Domain, was one of the most dazzling prodigies in the Han Hai Realm in recent years.

Although only in the Golden Divine Realm, his combat power is no less than that of a Saint Divine Realm expert.

In the Heavenly Bird Star Domain, no Golden Divine Realm expert could contend with the Holy Son, as a prodigy like him was incomparable to the so-called world-class talents.

None of the Golden Divine Realm experts who fought the Holy Son survived, all turned to dust and dissipation.

Even a Saint Divine Realm expert had suffered defeat at the hands of the Holy Son!

"Sun Wukong? Hmph! Some wild monkey dares to act presumptuously over the Cangqiong Immortal Palace!"

"This time, I, as the Holy Son, will show the entire Han Hai Realm who the true unmatched prodigy is!"

"In this era of great contention, it's the best time for me, the Holy Son, to ascend to the apex and achieve the emperor's status!"

"The glory of this imperial position begins by stepping over Sun Wukong's head!"

The Holy Son challenges the Great Sage Equalling Heaven Sun Wukong at the Destiny Star Cloud!

The news spread like wildfire throughout the entire Han Hai Realm, with the forces across the four major star domains watching for Sun Wukong's response.

How will this emerging Great Sage Equalling Heaven respond to the Holy Son's challenge?

The Holy Son's renowned power was built upon the bones of countless geniuses and strong competitors over the years. Even though Sun Wukong is a powerful figure in the inner court of the Holy Book Academy, he might find himself overshadowed by the Holy Son, right?

Perhaps, among the list of prodigies slain by the Holy Son, another name will be added soon?

"Wukong, how do you plan to respond to the Holy Son's challenge?"

In the Second Prince Shen Lang's residence within the Imperial Capital of the Heavenly Bird Dynasty, Shen Lang curiously asked Sun Wukong, who was currently practicing alchemy.

After the grand victory in the Dark River region, Second Prince Shen Lang returned to the Imperial Capital with Sun Wukong and the Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor, where they received a warm welcome from the Heavenly Bird Emperor.

The Heavenly Bird Emperor showed unprecedented appreciation and admiration for Shen Lang, while also bestowing high praise on Sun Wukong and the Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor, with enthusiasm like a blazing fire.

In contrast, the Crown Prince Shen Feng, who led the Dynasty to a major defeat, was met with cold indifference, being directly confined to his residence, not allowed to step outside.

Shen Lang was naturally very satisfied with this outcome.
