Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong

Ling Xiao Immortal was taken aback.

Indeed, Xiang Cangqiong's temper was not one to tolerate contradictions. If those few elders had spoken up earlier to dissuade him, the result might have been counterproductive!

Perhaps Xiang Cangqiong originally intended to give him another chance, but being urged like that, his anger flared, leading him to destroy the other person directly!

Thinking of this, the resentment in Ling Xiao Immortal's heart vanished into thin air, and he gave a grateful smile to the elders.

"It was my overthinking; your concerns were justified."

After pausing for a moment, he frowned and said, "But dealing with Sun Wukong, now that he's so formidable, is going to be really tough!"

"Indeed, indeed!"

The elders nodded repeatedly, though somewhat perfunctorily.

"You all, don't think you can just sit on the sidelines and wash your hands of the matter. If I remember correctly, the Yuan Realm was originally handled by you!"

"If I'm doomed, do you think you can escape unscathed?"

The elders' expressions changed, as they knew Xiang Cangqiong's temperament all too well.

If Sun Wukong's issue could not be resolved, Ling Xiao Immortal would surely face the consequences, and they wouldn't fare well either.

"Vice Palace Master, what are you saying? We certainly share both glory and loss!"

"Exactly, exactly! Rest assured, Vice Palace Master, we will certainly assist with all our might! If that Sun Wukong remains obstinate, we'll join forces to take him down!"

The three Great Elders made sweeping pledges, but as for what they really thought, perhaps only they knew.

On the massive starship traveling from Pill Cauldron Star to the Heavenly Bird Dynasty.

"Wukong, why are we in such a hurry to return to the Heavenly Bird Dynasty? I still wanted to stay on Pill Cauldron Star for a few more days!"

Shen Lang looked out at the starry sky, feeling somewhat bored. He thoroughly enjoyed the days of being praised and surrounded by others on Pill Cauldron Star.

"If we stay any longer, you might not be able to leave. Haven't you noticed the Alchemist Guild seems intent on keeping us on Pill Cauldron Star?"

Sun Wukong raised an eyebrow slightly. "Moreover, Cangqiong Immortal Palace has surely received the news too. If I guess correctly, they're probably waiting somewhere to intercept us."

"Huh?"

Shen Lang was startled, "You mean Cangqiong Immortal Palace might try to kill us?"

"Of course!"

Sun Wukong nodded, "This journey is likely their last chance. Once we return to the Heavenly Bird Dynasty, opportunities will be scarce. If you were part of Cangqiong Immortal Palace, would you let this potential last chance slip by?"

"No!"

Shen Lang shook his head without hesitation, "So you anticipated this, deliberately giving them the opportunity? You're planning a counter-ambush, aren't you?"

"You guessed it! That's exactly what I'm thinking!"

Sun Wukong laughed, nodded, and a glint of chilling murderous intent flashed across him,

"Aren't they trying to ambush us? I'm giving them this chance!"

Sun Wukong's power now matched that of a Saint Divine Realm expert, and he had the Ruyi Toxic God Egg, refined in the Desolate Divine Realm.

That item could even overwhelm a Saint Divine Realm expert!

Once contaminated, a Saint Divine Realm expert could face total obliteration of their cultivation or suffer a worse fate.

Sun Wukong was eager to see what kind of tricks the Cangqiong Immortal Palace would attempt this time!

In the chaotic starry sky, one of the most dangerous places in the Han Hai Realm, at the intersection of the Heavenly Bird Star Domain and the Celestial Human Domain.

No forces could extend their influence into this chaotic starry sky, as its terrain was far too complex.

Space-time black holes were scattered throughout, and a moment's carelessness could get you drawn into one.

These black holes contained chaotic forces that, once inside a body, created a frenzy that could lead to death if not resisted.

Thus, it was a hideout for evildoers within the Han Hai Realm.

These scoundrels usually had considerable resistance to the chaotic forces here.

Aside from that, other major powers would only pass through without lingering.

But this time, a small team of about a dozen lay hidden here, members of Cangqiong Immortal Palace.

Leading them was none other than Cangqiong Immortal Palace's Vice Palace Master, Ling Xiao Immortal.

"The interstellar warship of the Heavenly Bird Dynasty should be reaching here soon. Is the Starry Sky Sealing Array ready?"

Ling Xiao Immortal looked to the three elders beside him.

"It's long been prepared!"

The Great Elder stroked his long beard, "Now it's only a matter of waiting for the interstellar spaceship of the Heavenly Bird Dynasty to fall right in!"

"Humph! As long as the Heavenly Bird Holy Emperor doesn't have Late Stage God Realm cultivation, he won't be able to free the ship, leaving him no choice but to protect himself, unable to assist that Sun Wukong!"

The Second Elder snorted coldly, "I want to see what else that Sun Wukong can rely on!"

Sure enough, in less than half a day, the interstellar warship of the Heavenly Bird Dynasty entered the ambush zone where Ling Xiao Immortal and the others lay in wait.

Ling Xiao Immortal and the others held their patience, only striking once the warship was confirmed to be inside the Starry Sky Sealing Array.

Suddenly, beams of light appeared throughout the void, enveloping the entire starry sky.

In the next moment, all the beams vanished back into the void.

These beams weren't ineffective but sealed the entire star domain within the range of visual perception.

Furious Power of the Heavenly Dao descended fiercely on the interstellar warship.

At the same time, a peculiar spatial force passed through the interstellar warship, acting upon Sun Wukong.

A flash of black light, and Sun Wukong was directly teleported away.

"Wukong!"

Shen Lang was shocked, unable to stop the event, while the Heavenly Bird Holy Emperor was both surprised and angry.

But at that moment, he had to focus his strength on withstanding the crush of the Power of the Heavenly Dao, protecting the entire interstellar warship, leaving him no energy to stop it.

He could only watch as Sun Wukong was teleported away.

Whoosh!

Sun Wukong felt a swift transition of light and shadow, suddenly finding himself in the depths of the chaotic starry sky, floating in the universe.

Not far off, scattered among the asteroids, were about a dozen people.

No need to guess, they were the elites of the Cangqiong Immortal Palace.

These guys were waiting here just to ambush him!

To have been transported here certainly had to be the work of these Cangqiong Immortal Palace experts.

"You all really went to great lengths! Going through all this effort to teleport me, surely not just to have a staring contest, right?"

Sun Wukong observed Ling Xiao Immortal and the others, just as they observed him, both sides silent for a long stretch.

Ultimately, it was Sun Wukong who couldn't bear the silence, rolling his eyes and speaking up with a cold chuckle.
