Chapter 718: Laozi's Essence Was Absorbed by Hongjun
Chapter 718: Laozi's Essence Was Absorbed by Hongjun
"Silly disciple, since I'm following you on this journey, I naturally have enough confidence."
As soon as these words were spoken, I felt something was wrong.
He has already exerted all his abilities, but the results are still poor.
How is this possible? The expression on Laozi's face became more and more ferocious and terrifying.
When he thought that all his cultivation over the past millions of years would be wasted and his achievements would be reduced to nothing, he felt grief and indignation.
In this case...even if he has to risk self-destruction, he will never let Hongjun get away with it!
Unexpectedly, as soon as this thought came to his mind, it was forcibly interrupted.
Hongjun, with a ruddy complexion, seemed to have sensed what Laozi was thinking. He just raised his hand slightly, and the entire formation was instantly changed according to his wishes.
Now, Laozi, who was already unable to move, couldn't even use his own spiritual sense.
Laozi was filled with grief and indignation, staring at Hongjun angrily: "Hongjun, you will not die a good death!"
Hongjun still maintained that hypocritical mask, but the speed at which he absorbed Laozi's cultivation suddenly increased.
He said, "What a pity... the one who has to go first is not me. Good disciple, I will remember your contribution and avenge you!"
But the actual behavior is so unbearable.
"Do not……"
Laozi watched helplessly as not only his strength and realm were wasted, but even his own origin was gradually absorbed by Hongjun.
Regret and hatred burst out strongly at this moment.
If he had known that all this was a trap set by Hongjun, he would never have been fooled so easily.
He should have tested it first, or borrowed Tongtian's hand to completely destroy Hongjun, and then implement his own plan.
This way, there will be no mistakes.
“No, mine…” Laozi muttered.
He was even a little angry. Why didn't Hongjun take the initiative to attack Yuanshi or Tongtian? Why did he have to choose himself?
He had completely forgotten that he was the one who brought the enemy here.
As if he could see Laozi's unwillingness, Hongjun blinked and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it won't be long before Yuanshi will come to accompany you..."
The old man, who was already at the end of his strength, felt strangely relieved after hearing these words.
Will Yuanshi come to accompany me?
This is fine, this is fine!
It seemed that Laozi had been relieved and his rebellious spirit suddenly decreased. He even showed a smile at the corner of his mouth, as if he was ready to die calmly.
At the moment when his origin completely dissipated, Laozi suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Hongjun fiercely: "Yuanshi..."
Although he didn't have time to finish his words, Hongjun already understood what Laozi meant.
I am reminding Hongjun not to forget to ask Yuanshi to accompany him, and if possible, bring Tongtian to him as well!
Otherwise, even if Hongjun absorbed his origin, he would definitely make Hongjun restless.
Hongjun did not answer.
Only when his strength had recovered and he even felt like he was about to break through did he slowly speak:
"What an idiot... But if possible, I will definitely let Yuanshi come to keep you company."
After saying these words, Hongjun felt as if some kind of restraint was looming over his heart.
He was somewhat disdainful. What was the point of such restrictions?
His cultivation has reached this level, so these are nothing.
Oh my god, you are so clever that you end up making mistakes.
……
Sun Wukong, who had the same idea as Hongjun, also shook his head.
Sun Wukong's words were filled with a hint of regret: "It seems that my uncle's role has been completely completed!"
"What a pity... How could he be so confident that he could definitely outsmart that old fox Hongjun?"
Don't think he doesn't know.
During the time when the other party was still on Jinao Island.
Don’t think that Hongjun was often bullied by Sun Bu Si and had a bruised face.
But in fact, the other party had stared at Sun Bu Si with sinister intent many times, wishing he could absorb his essence.
Although it cannot compare with the Way of Heaven, the identity of being the spokesperson of the Way of Earth is not much worse.
It’s just that the other party didn’t find the right opportunity to take action.
Whenever Hongjun wanted to take action, Sun Wukong would use one excuse or another to lure Sun Bu Si away.
The chattering Sun Bu Si didn't think too deeply about it. He just thought that Sun Wukong was deliberately tormenting him.
However, because of the gentle care of the Queen Mother of the West, Sun Bu Si did not feel any resentment. Instead, he felt helpless about Sun Wukong's childishness.
Afterwards, Hongjun was handed over to Yuanshi. Although Sun Wukong was not very clear about the specific situation, he was sure that the other party was also secretly watching Yuanshi.
However, judging from the final result, it is very likely that Laozi got there first before Hongjun could attack Yuanshi.
I consider myself a mantis stalking a cicada.
However, unexpectedly, from the beginning to the end, Hongjun, who was treated as the prey, was the hunter lurking in secret.
Although it is sad to end up like this, it is also understandable.
Nuwa, who rushed over urgently after receiving the message from Sun Wukong, was still a little confused when she saw what was happening in the water mirror.
She didn't even have the time to ask Sun Wukong where the water mirror came from, which allowed her to monitor people without being discovered, before she witnessed the entire process of Laozi being killed.
"This... Taiqing is doing this..." Nuwa was still a little bit unbelievable.
She would rather suspect whether this was something Sun Wukong did on purpose to fool her.
I also don't want to believe that I have become the nourishment for Hongjun to recover his strength in such a careless way.
Sun Wukong sighed and said, "My uncle-master really missed Uncle Yuanshi so much that even at his last moment, he didn't forget to send someone to accompany him. It's really sad..."
Nuwa, who wanted to ask further questions, didn't know how to start when she heard these words.
These words, put here, seem a little inappropriate, don't they?!
Also, don't think that she won't hear it if I put it in a more euphemistic way. It's obvious that I'm not willing to die and want to drag Yuanshi into my footsteps.
What kind of distortion is this?
Unexpectedly, Lao Tzu, who seemed to be the most neutral in the past, actually had such twisted thoughts.
"Then what shall we do next..." Nuwa murmured.
Sun Wukong thought for a moment and said seriously, "If your Majesty is furious, why not go to the Bajing Palace and take a look? That way, you might even be able to personally participate in the drama."
Nuwa twitched her lips, mercilessly exposing Sun Wukong's true thoughts: "And then, for you to watch and enjoy?"
The exposed Sun Wukong chuckled: There’s no need to be so straightforward!
Although thanks to Tian Daokong's relationship, he could watch it whenever he wanted, without any delay or time difference.
However, he still felt a little embarrassed when someone said it so bluntly.
This shows how bad his taste is.
