Muscular Rabbits Legion: “No one can escape from the novice village!”
Chapter 474 - Chapter 474 Chapter 464 The Four Calamities

Chapter 474: Chapter 464: The Four Calamities Chapter 474: Chapter 464: The Four Calamities The Queen Mother of the West looked at Yi Zheng skeptically, “Five hundred years, what’s that enough for? I don’t believe they’d cheer for a mere five hundred years.”

Yi Zheng said, “There’s a song as proof! They specifically wrote a song to celebrate living an extra five hundred years.”

Curiosity piqued, the Queen Mother of the West looked at Yi Zheng, “Really? Sing it for me.”

Although Yi Zheng was tone-deaf, and his voice was terrible, he believed that the Queen Mother of the West, this earthy leopard-cat, definitely had no taste for music.

So Yi Zheng strained his throat and began to sing:

“Along the mountains and rivers follow gently winding lines

Set horses free in the Central Plains, in the northern lands, and south of the Yangtze

…

May the mortal realm be blessed with peace and contentment

I really do want to live another five hundred years

…

May the mortal realm be blessed with peace and contentment

I really do want to live another five hundred years

I really do want to live another five hundred years”

Hearing Yi Zheng’s singing, the Queen Mother of the West was dumbfounded, “Are there really people who would utter such laments for a mere five hundred years? That’s seriously lacking ambition.”

Yi Zheng, however, said earnestly, “To you, Queen Mother, five hundred years may not seem much. But to humans, five hundred years is quite a lot. A person normally only has a lifespan of a hundred years. Subtract the first dozen years of growth and the last twenty or thirty years of old age, and you’re really only left with forty or fifty years to make a splash.

Five hundred years, what concept is that?

It’s multiple lifetimes!

So, your elixer to them is truly a blessing!”

The Queen Mother of the West’s face flushed with pleasure from the flattery, but she still pouted, “Even so, your singing is really awful. It’s even worse than a bird’s call…”

Yi Zheng, with a straight face and without missing a beat, shifted the blame of his terrible singing away, “Your Majesty, you can’t blame me for that. The original singer sang it that way. If anyone’s to blame, it’s the low standards of those humans, they don’t understand melody. But thinking about it, they only live for a few years, so compared to you, their understanding of music can’t possibly match up.”

The Queen Mother of the West felt utterly pleased with the boot-licking and said proudly, “Of course…”

In high spirits, the Queen Mother of the West said, “Rabbit, you’ve performed very well today, let me think what reward I should give you…”

Yi Zheng immediately said, “You needn’t reward me, Your Majesty. Serving you is my duty. Besides, you’ve already lent me the Kunlun Mirror, an ultimate treasure. With such a huge favor, doing this little task is the least I could do!”

The Queen Mother of the West was however indifferent, “I have no use for that mirror anyway, use it if you need it. By the way, do you know how to use it?”

Yi Zheng said, “Isn’t it just reciting a mnemonic to use it to see places all around the world?”

The Queen Mother of the West shook her head, “That’s just the basic function. Its greatest effect is to traverse time and space, to kill and annihilate gods.

But traversing time is forbidden, so you can’t use it, and I won’t give you that authority.

Seeing how well you’ve done today, I’ll teach you the Suppressing Killing Technique of the Kunlun Mirror. In case of trouble, you’ll be able to protect yourself. Although with your power you won’t be able to unleash much of the mirror’s power, it will still suffice to keep you safe.”

Upon hearing this, Yi Zheng was ecstatic. His current situation was special; he gained strength whenever he was hit, but he was in the Divine Realm, surrounded by overwhelmingly powerful enemies.

Those who knew his identity dared not fight him, while those who didn’t were likely to kill him.

Most importantly, Yi Zheng’s nature wasn’t to be a docile rabbit. He wasn’t used to living a dull life.

He had been cautious before, but now with the Kunlun Mirror, he bristled with confidence, even starting to consider who he could bully once he got back…

Excited, Yi Zheng crept close to the Queen Mother of the West, waiting for her to pass on the technique.

The Queen Mother of the West said, “The technique is actually another mnemonic, very simple. Repeat after me: On behalf of the majestic Queen Mother of the West, screw you!”

Yi Zheng: “…”

The Queen Mother of the West looked at Yi Zheng innocently, “Well? Say it.”

Inwardly, Yi Zheng thought: This is so wild!

Then, roaring it out loud, he chanted, “On behalf of the majestic Queen Mother of the West, screw you!”

In an instant, the Kunlun Mirror in his hand flashed a bright green light, buzzing as it enlarged and flew above Yi Zheng’s head, casting a faint green glow.

Within the glow, bamboo leaves floated down…

The Queen Mother of the West said, “With the Kunlun Mirror above your head, no treasure or Sub-Saint of the same level can harm you. It’s not absolute safety, but there won’t be many who can kill you.”

As she said this, the Queen Mother of the West slapped her forehead, “Right, your Bloodline Golden Core and Elixir Golden Core are not perfect, they have some minor flaws. If you don’t get hit over time, it will become unbearable.”

Yi Zheng’s face changed abruptly, “Could I die from that?”

The Queen Mother of the West said, “You won’t die, but it will be extremely uncomfortable. So, you need to absorb the power from the two cores appropriately, you can’t just stand still. Consider it a form of encouragement, it will benefit your cultivation.”

Yi Zheng chuckled, but inside he was wailing, “Is this cultivation? This is just getting beaten up, right?”

…

After a brief moment of gloom, Yi Zheng said, “Your Majesty, don’t you think it’s a bit beneath someone of your stature to live in a cave?”

The Queen Mother of the West looked at her own cave, then outside, “If not a cave, what should I live in? A bird’s nest?”

Yi Zheng rubbed his brow and said, “Have you ever considered living in a palace?”

After a moment of thought, the Queen Mother of the West said, “I have considered it, but I don’t know how to build one!”

Yi Zheng grew curious, “Haven’t you thought about having others help you build it? I think, if you wanted a palace, even the Jade Emperor would be willing to help.”

The Queen Mother of the West countered, “Why should I let them help?”

Yi Zheng was at a loss for words.

He looked at the Queen Mother of the West’s incredibly proud eyes, and instantly understood–it wasn’t that no one would help her build, but that her pride had led her to refuse everyone.

However, this just made things easier for Yi Zheng.

Yi Zheng immediately stood tall and spoke righteously, “The Queen Mother of the West is right, why should others help? We can build it ourselves!”

Yi Zheng shamelessly excluded them from the equation and then included himself in the Queen Mother of the West’s camp.

The Queen Mother of the West didn’t seem to mind, and even appeared quite happy, “Can you build skyscrapers?”

Yi Zheng replied, “I might not be very good at it, but, since the Queen Mother of the West likes them, I must learn!”

Overjoyed, the Queen Mother of the West said, “Then… then build one for me! I want a big house that’s even more beautiful than the Palace of the Polestar, to stop the Queen Mother from showing off to me all the time…”

Upon hearing this, Yi Zheng’s eyes lit up, amazed at how opportune the timing was!

So Yi Zheng immediately put on a troubled face and said, “Queen Mother of the West, I can build houses, and I can build them well. But there’s a problem…”

The Queen Mother of the West waved her hand authoritatively, “What problem?”

Yi Zheng said, “I don’t know what this ‘Palace of the Polestar’ thing is! I don’t even know what it looks like.How can I build something better than it?”

The Queen Mother of the West paused, then nodded as if in thought, “That’s true, you’re so weak; you couldn’t possibly enter the Heavenly Court and see the Palace of the Polestar.”

Seeing the Queen Mother of the West remain silent, Yi Zheng then sighed, “If only there were a chance to go inside and have a look; to have a reference when building, not to build it much bigger, but at least a bit taller, a bit wider.”

The Queen Mother of the West clapped and said enthusiastically, “I’ve got it! In three months, it’s the Pan Peach Festival. The Queen Mother will definitely invite me to attend. I’ll take you with me then. We’ll pass by the Palace of the Polestar, and you can have a good look, remember the size of the Palace of the Polestar, and then…”

Yi Zheng immediately exclaimed, “And then we build step by step, making our building taller, wider, and better than it!”

The Queen Mother of the West giggled, “Yes, that’s the idea! Are you free in three months?”

Yi Zheng eagerly shouted, “Of course, I’m free! Even if I’m not, I must make way for this important matter!”

The Queen Mother of the West was pleased, “You have a conscience!”

Seeing how happy the Queen Mother of the West was, Yi Zheng quickly asked, “Great Queen Mother of the West, could we possibly bring one more person?”

“Isn’t one enough for you?” the Queen Mother of the West asked curiously.

Yi Zheng explained, “Although I am skilled in many ways, there are some things I still lack a bit in, like the control over length, width, and height. The other day, I was talking with Ying Zhao, and I found his grasp of distances to be very precise. Plus, he seems to have some research on architecture, so I thought it’d be helpful to bring him along.

With complementary skills, we can ensure perfection.”

The Queen Mother of the West thought that seemed reasonable…

But she hesitated to agree.

Yi Zheng, seizing the moment, added, “Of course, if we bring more people, the Queen Mother will definitely have to offer more Pan Peaches as hospitality. There are only so many Peaches, and if there aren’t enough, wouldn’t that be embarrassing…”

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother of the West’s spirits lifted, “Let’s go, we must! Besides Ying Zhao, who else are you bringing? Everyone, let’s go together!”

Yi Zheng suggested, “How about we also bring Lu Wu, Rare, and the Kaiming Beast along?”

“Bring them all! It doesn’t matter if they’re useful or not; if they can eat, that’s enough!” said the Queen Mother of the West.

Yi Zheng said, “If that’s the case, I think my Confucian Sect army can also come along. With 1.44 million people, we won’t just eat the Peaches, we’ll strip the leaves bare too!”

The Queen Mother of the West was about to agree but then realized, perhaps that was going a bit too far, and shook her head, “That… might be too many. Just you and the four calamities.”

Although Yi Zheng was a little disappointed he couldn’t bring the Confucian Disciples to ascend and eat Pan Peaches, he was quite happy since the mission was accomplished.

However, Yi Zheng couldn’t help but wonder why the Queen Mother of the West always called Ying Zhao and the others “the four calamities.”

Moreover, it seemed that the wild monsters, bosses, and NPCs of Kunlun were also quite afraid of these four.

But Yi Zheng didn’t find them to be particularly frightening…

Apart from being a bit gossipy, their character was quite good.

At that moment, Yi Zheng couldn’t hold back any longer and asked, “Great Queen Mother of the West, why do you always call Ying Zhao and the others ‘calamities’?”

The Queen Mother of the West said, “You don’t know?”

Yi Zheng shook his head.

After thinking for a moment, the Queen Mother of the West said, “Well, it’s not much. It’s just that before I came here… um… to be precise, before the East King came here, these four guys were the real masters of Kunlun.

But you see…”
