Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong - Chapter 379 - Chapter 379: Chapter 379: Stay and Help (Fifth Update)

Chapter 379: Chapter 379: Stay and Help (Fifth Update)

After issuing the command, Demon Ancestor Luo Hu turned his attention back to Sun Wukong, waved his hand to open another space rift, and pointed, “Go, I will first send you to the Netherworld, then I will deal with that Heavenly Demon Dragon.”

Sun Wukong’s brows slightly furrowed, and a struggle flashed through his eyes. After a moment, he clenched his teeth and said, “We will not leave for now!”

“Not leaving? Why? Are you not worried about the safety of Flower-Fruit Mountain?”

A trace of surprise crossed Demon Ancestor Luo Hu’s eyes.

“Of course I’m worried, but I believe Leng Xuan and the others can hold on until I, Old Sun, return. Flower-Fruit Mountain has been quietly developing for years, and it’s time to test the results. If every time I leave, they are so fragile, what’s there to talk about revitalizing the Demon Clan?”

Sun Wukong shook his head and said, “That Heavenly Demon Dragon is launching a beast tide to attack the Demonic Continent. Most likely, he has heard of Jidu Demon Emperor’s fall and your reappearance in the Demonic Realm, and is wary in his heart. This matter was stirred up by me, Old Sun, and I can’t just walk away!”

“Oh? So, you want to stay and help me?”

An odd expression flickered through Demon Ancestor Luo Hu’s eyes, slightly surprised. Sun Wukong was actually willing to delay returning to Flower-Fruit Mountain–this lad’s actions were indeed unexpected!

“It’s not about helping or not helping. Since I, Old Sun, caused this issue, I can’t just stand by idly!”

Sun Wukong shook his head and said, “Unless you, Demon Ancestor, don’t need my help, then my conscience would be clear!”

“Need! Why wouldn’t I?”

Demon Ancestor Luo Hu laughed heartily, “That Heavenly Demon Dragon is merely at the level of a Demon Saint physically. His overall strength is far inferior to a saint who has attained sainthood through merit. He is not even worth my effort. You going to deal with him is just perfect!”

After laughing, he sighed with some regret, “What a pity! Why don’t I have talents like you under my command? Such a pity, indeed!”

“Forget it! Old Sun will not submit to anyone, not even the king of heaven himself!”

Sun Wukong waved his hand and said, “Come on, let’s hurry. After dealing with the beast tide, Old Sun still has to rush back to the Three Realms!”

“Good, that’s the spirit! I admire such spirit in you! We cultivators should never easily submit to others. To reach the pinnacle, you must possess a heart that never admits defeat, even when facing an opponent much stronger than yourself!”

Demon Ancestor Luo Hu’s eyes gleamed, looking at Sun Wukong as if seeing his younger self competing with Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor–Sun Wukong, like him back then, was equally unruly and unyielding. This lad, really suits his taste!

“Alright, alright, Demon Ancestor, if you want to lament, there’s plenty of time later. Just open a spatial passage to the Boundary Bridge quickly. Old Sun is in a hurry here!”

Sun Wukong dug at his ear, somewhat impatiently urged, then turned his gaze to Bull Demon King and Six-Eared Macaque, casting an inquiring glance.

“There’s a fight to be had, I wouldn’t miss this fun for anything. Count me in, boss!”

“Old Bull is also coming!”

Six-Eared Macaque licked his lips, eyes blazing with excitement. Bull Demon King did not have much to say, but he was clearly eager as he gripped the iron staff. Sun Wukong nodded in satisfaction and did not say more. What defines a brother? It is someone who will always stand behind you, supporting you unconditionally. Such brothers were not in Sun Wukong’s past life, but in this life, he had more than one!

“Good, hahaha, very good!”

Demon Ancestor Luo Hu laughed loudly once more. Although Six-Eared Macaque and Bull Demon King were only at the Half-Step Saint Realm, their strength was in no way inferior to those Quasi-Saint powerhouses, and not much less compared to the Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan, at the Half-Step Saint Realm. With them taking action, he could afford to watch the battle leisurely at the side without having to step in himself!

Very good, truly excellent!

With a wave of his hand, Demon Ancestor Luo Hu opened a spatial fissure, a passage leading to the Boundary Bridge. Flying there would take too much time, and the barrier at the Boundary Bridge might not hold much longer. This was the fastest way. Of course, such a feat was something only Demon Ancestor Luo Hu could achieve within the whole Demonic Realm. Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan and Sun Wukong were still far from reaching such a level. It required a significant understanding of the Space Law to achieve.

Sun Wukong wasted no time and dived straight into the spatial fissure. Bull Demon King, Six-Eared Macaque, and Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan followed right after him, with Jidu Demon Emperor bringing up the rear. After the four of them entered, the spatial fissure quickly shrank and disappeared. In the vast Ninth Layer hall, only the Demon Race guard who brought the news remained, standing there dazed for a long time before finally coming to his senses and running towards the palace exit.

At the boundary between the Demonic Realm Continent and the Demon Beast Continent, atop the Boundary Bridge.

“Kill!”

“Let’s fight these beasts to the death!”

The barrier at the Boundary Bridge had started to show cracks and gaps. The Demon Race Guards had no choice but to rush onto the Boundary Bridge and engage in close combat with the Demonic Beasts trying to break through the gaps. They knew well that, with the geographical advantage of the Boundary Bridge, they could hold off the beasts. But once these beasts broke through the barrier and crossed the Boundary Bridge into the Demonic Realm Continent, they would be like a flood, leaving the guards completely defenseless and facing nothing but imminent destruction!

“Demon Energy Cannon, charge and continuously release at the barrier gaps!”

The Demon Spirit Rank, Domain-Defending Demon General ordered grimly.

“General, we can’t! Our own troops are also there; they will get caught in the crossfire!”

The Demon Race troops handling the Demon Energy Cannon were stunned, and the team leader with a troubled expression spoke.

“If the general orders you to fire, would you dare to disobey?”

The Domain-Defending Demon General bellowed sternly, “If we let those beasts break through, none of us will survive! Have you thought about the beast tide rampaging through your families?”

The Demon Race troops handling the cannon all fell silent. The team leader clenched his jaw tightly, hardened his heart and placed his palm on the charging Demon Crystal, growling low, “Obey the orders, fire!”

Boom, boom, boom!

The continuous Demon Energy Light Spheres bombarded the gaps on the Boundary Bridge, the sky filled with flames and the booming sounds of explosions instantly cleared a large area outside the gap. The Demon Race troops engaged in bloody combat against the Demonic Beasts turned to ash in the blaze, the surviving troops around them twitching their eyelids at the sight.

“What are you standing around for, quickly repair the barrier! Do you want their sacrifice to be in vain?”
