The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 1337

Chapter 1337: Chapter 134 Wading through Muddy Waters Chapter 1337: Chapter 134 Wading through Muddy Waters “Master… Master he… the traitor who betrayed Mount Fangcun is none other than Jue Ming! For the past three months, as he lit lamps in Master's meditation room, the oil he used was mixed with Gu poison from the flesh of shark people. No one noticed anything unusual in the daily routine, but this time, when Master activated the Creation God's Power, the Gu poison that had been accumulating over many days suddenly erupted, disrupting Master's meridians. Taking advantage of the chaos, that scoundrel Jue Ming joined forces with a black-clad, masked figure who had suddenly appeared, and they grievously wounded Master. Now, he and the surviving disciples are all hiding in the Bodhi Secret Realm. I barely escaped with my life to seek help,” Jue An said, his emotions running high as he poured out everything in one breath.

“Master has been injured? How severe are his injuries?” Sun Wukong asked, scratching his face.

“A black-clad, masked person?” Shen Luo pondered.

“Master's injuries are serious, and he can only rely on the Bodhi Secret Realm to sustain him for now, but I fear he won't be able to hold out for long. The disciples sent out for help before me, they might have been ambushed and killed already,” Jue An hurriedly said.

“Right, Elder, what's with the village at the foot of the mountain, Longevity Village?” Shen Luo, remembering something, quickly asked.

“Longevity Village has been on good terms with us since ancient times. This time they also sent us an early warning, informing us that a large number of monks were secretly infiltrating the vicinity of Mount Fangcun, and they hence suffered retaliation from the enemy,” Jue An said.

“And the villagers…” Shen Luo said with concern.

“We've lost some, while others were saved by my Master's intervention, and are now hiding in the Bodhi Secret Realm along with us,” Jue An said with a pained expression.

“There's no time to lose; we must go up the mountain to rescue them immediately,” Sun Wukong declared, his brows furrowed.

“Brother disciple, that's not possible,” Jue An said immediately.

“Why not?” Sun Wukong bared his teeth as he asked.

“Right now, the summit is gathered with monks from more than a dozen sects. They outnumber us and amongst them are highly skilled Taiyi Cultivators. If we rashly storm up, not only will we fail to save anyone, but we will also endanger ourselves, and then there will be no hope left for saving our sect,” Jue An said gravely.

“Distant water can't put out a nearby fire. Master and the others are in imminent danger. Even if we go to seek help now, what use would it be? Better to charge up the mountain and fight a decisive battle,” Sun Wukong said, his untamed wild nature showing as he scratched his ears and cheeks.

“Great King, what Daoist friend Jue An says is not unreasonable,” Marshal Ma spoke up.

“Rashly going up the mountain without seeking reinforcements indeed seems inappropriate,” Fu Donglai also pondered and said.

Upon learning that the Second King of Lion Camel Ridge had personally come, he knew the matter could not be settled easily and that without help, Mount Fangcun was in grave danger.

After hearing this, Sun Wukong showed a hesitating look on his face. After pondering for a moment, he said,

“In that case, Brother Shen, I must trouble you and this Demon Clan Daoist friend to go ahead to Mount Putuo and Wuzhuang View to seek help. My personal relations and those of Mount Fangcun are not bad with them, so I don't think they will ignore this.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Luo did not immediately agree, seemingly hesitant.

“I'll leave this matter to you; I will go up the mountain first,” Sun Wukong said, without waiting for their response. After dropping that statement, with a single thrust of his foot against the ground, his figure soared into the air, flying straight towards the peak of Mount Fangcun.

Seeing this, Marshal Ma and General Beng, two strong demon monkey generals, also quickly followed.

“Ah, I must trouble the two of you then. If Mount Fangcun can survive this calamity, we will certainly repay you in the future,” Jue An bowed deeply, forcing himself to endure his injuries as he chased after them.

“Brother Shen, given the urgency of the situation, let's split up and ask for help,” Fu Donglai also said.

“`

Shen Luo heard the words but waved his hand and said, “Let's not rush.”

“How can we not be in a hurry… Brother Shen, could it be you?” Fu Donglai first expressed alarm, then immediately realized something and asked.

“Indeed, I had already written a secret message for rescue when we left Flower Fruit Mountain and had it sent out. I sought help not only from Mount Putuo and Wuzhuang View but also from the Great Tang Dynasty Government and Hua Sheng Temple,” said Shen Luo.

Fu Donglai was delighted to hear this, but then he felt something odd and asked, “If that's the case, why did you not inform Sun Dasheng?”

“Elder Brother Fu, don't you find Elder Jue An somewhat strange?” Shen Luo asked.

“What's strange about him?” asked Fu Donglai, puzzled.

“He claimed that many disciples escaped with him to send a message, but almost all of them were intercepted and likely only he escaped. But why, after speaking with us for so long, have we not seen any pursuers?” Shen Luo said, frowning.

Hearing this, Fu Donglai fell silent, and after a moment, he nodded, unable to deny the suspicion.

“However, it's just as well now. He's under the impression that we went for reinforcements, which actually makes it easier for us to investigate. Let's first figure out what's really going on,” Shen Luo sighed lightly and said.

After their discussion, the two of them immediately restrained their breaths and, instead of flying, they quickly followed the mountain path.

Different from the last time they visited, where the mountain was deep in the woods with beautiful scenery everywhere, Mount Fangcun was now a place of burning buildings and collapsed palace walls, with many mutilated bodies in between.

Among them were both Inner and Outer Sect Disciples dressed in Mount Fangcun attire, as well as many invaders in various garments, indicating just how fierce the battle had been.

Elsewhere, just as Sun Wukong and his company were flying over the mountain peak, a violent distortion suddenly occurred in the void.

Thin pink threads emerged from everywhere in the void, transforming into an immense net that spanned the sky, caging Sun Wukong and the others from above.

“Not good, it's Flower Ten Women's Skynet,” Jue An said in a panic.

Sun Wukong, seeing this, sneered with disdain and stretched out his palm to grab violently at the void.

Dazzling golden light burst from his fingers and with a simple tug, thunderous rumblings sounded as five black rifts emerged in the skydome, tearing the pink spider web to shreds in one pull.

“Hehe, truly worthy of the Great Sage Equal to Heaven Sun Wukong, indeed formidable,” a coquettish laugh came from high altitude, and a tall, sultry woman with a seductive figure revealed herself.

She walked on air, playfully moving her hands in mid-air, resulting in nearly invisible crystalline threads weaving back and forth in the void, slowly stitching the torn rifts back together.

And the previously shredded Skynet was now restored to its original state.

“I wondered who it was. You, a little spider demon, dare to bully Mount Fangcun; have you eaten the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard?” Sun Wukong scolded with a glare.

“As a little spider demon, I naturally cannot catch the eye of the Great Sage. But today, I stand here to persuade you, Great Sage. You might want to avoid this troubled water of Mount Fangcun. After all, the Bodhi Ancestor has never acknowledged you as his disciple, and you have already achieved the fruit of the Victorious Fighting Buddha, so why bother with worldly affections?” Flower Ten Women said with a seductive smile, trying to persuade him.
