Myths and Dharma, starting from Erlang Shen

Chapter 569 One day, I will eat him, and even Tongtian can’t stop him!

Lunar star.

It is one of the most important stars in the celestial sky, but it has always been secluded and desolate. No strangers are allowed to enter, and it does not communicate with outsiders.

After all, the former owner of the Moon was the Queen of Shang, a star god, and a captive.

Which god would have the leisure to look for the Queen of Shang?

After the Moon Goddess was replaced, Guanghan Palace stopped communicating with outsiders and became desolate and quiet.

Even the Peach Banquet was just average.

But today, it is very lively.

The battle between Ji Ren and Bull Demon King was too eye-catching.

Qiao Qingyu and Qiao Qingyin comforted Cai Nian. Qiao Qingyu, who was always tolerant, rarely got really angry.

On the other side, Queen Mother Wang was also concerned about the Moon Goddess and said softly, "I was careless. I thought I was safe enough in the heavens, but I didn't expect that the bad guys would take advantage of me. Don't worry, I will send someone to hold Jiejiao accountable and get an explanation for you. This talisman is for you. If there is danger again in the future, just tear it apart. No matter how far away we are, I will definitely rush to you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The Moon Goddess said gratefully. She didn't care about it before, but after what happened today, she further understood that she was not in the mortal world. Her strength was far weaker than she thought, and she needed protection.

“I’ve told you not to be so polite. Since you’re a fairy from heaven, you’re my sister from Yao Chi. However, you’re indeed a little special. Do you want to call me sister or aunt? This is a question worth pondering.” said the Queen Mother.

"My queen." A faint blush appeared on the Moon Goddess's fair face.

"Are you still shy? To be honest, people with Ji Ren's talent are rare. If you don't hurry up, it will be gone... Hey, you're back so soon." The Queen Mother's expression changed slightly. She looked not far away, then moved her fingers slightly. After a while, Ji Ren appeared out of thin air in front of her.

"Greetings to the empress."

Ji Ren, feeling the terrifying power on his body, was offering the Wu Ji Xing Huang Flag when he suddenly saw the Queen Mother and the Moon Goddess. He immediately put away the Wu Ji Xing Huang Flag and saluted the Queen Mother.

"No need to be so polite. And, didn't I tell you to call me aunt?" said the Queen Mother with a smile.

"Yes, my nephew is rude." Ji Ren said.

"How is it? Is that evil creature dead?" asked the Queen Mother.

"No, the Grand Master rescued him personally, and I just destroyed his physical body." Ji Ren shook his head slightly.

"The leader would actually personally protect his own mount because of such a dirty thing?" Queen Mother Wang showed surprise on her face.

Master Tongtian has always let his disciples do whatever they want, regardless of life or death.

Now he would actually take action for the Bull Demon King. Is it true that the mount is an exception?

"This is one of the eighty-one difficulties in the Journey to the West. I cannot die here. This is my destiny. Aunt, how about having monkey brains and beef together at the next Peach Banquet?" Ji Ren smiled as he looked at the Queen Mother.

"That would be the best." Sensing the murderous intent behind Ji Ren's casual words, the Queen Mother chuckled and said, "Well, I am not suitable to stay here right now. I will leave first. As for the safety of Moon God in the future, you don't have to worry. I have set up a barrier here. From now on, even the Golden Immortal cannot enter without Moon God's permission. I have also placed a restriction on Moon God. If she is in danger, I will sense it."

"Thank you, aunt." Ji Ren said seriously.

Although the Queen Mother had her own motives, he had to acknowledge her kindness.

"Okay, let's talk." The Queen Mother chuckled, turned and left, leaving the space to Ji Ren and the Moon Goddess.

“That beast is an ancient mythical beast with a very heavy body. Although the Eight-Nine Profound Art can rebuild the body, it will take at least three hundred years to recover after I cut off its body. It will not cause trouble for you in the short term. I will deal with it.” Ji Ren looked at the Moon God and said.

"That beast is the mount of Shangqing Tianzun. Since ancient times, there has been no precedent of a saint's mount dying in a catastrophe. Now the fight between the Chan and Jie sects is extremely dangerous. Anyway, he didn't gain any advantage today. It is more important to put it down for the time being and protect himself." The Moon Goddess looked at Ji Ren and said.

She had not been in heaven for long, but she knew that the saints' mounts would not encounter any disasters.

After failing this time, if Ji Ren continues to chase him, he will probably be the one who gets robbed.

"Okay, I won't pursue that evil beast for now." Ji Ren nodded. "Really?" The Moon Goddess's crystal eyes seemed to contain some emotions, and she looked straight at Ji Ren.

"Really, when have I ever lied to you?" Ji Ren said.

"Yes, in the dream, you lied to Ren Qingyue about your origins. And with this sentence, I think you are lying to me." Moon Goddess looked at Ji Ren and said.

"Ren Qingyue?" Upon hearing this name, Ji Ren suddenly smiled and said, "What a familiar name. In fact, sometimes I think, if the fairyland had not been opened, it would be great if everyone was in the mortal world. In this way, there would not be so many troubles now. In that case, I would go to Jiangnan from time to time, run to the Moon Worshiping Palace, call you Qingyue a few times, and tease you. You would definitely be furious and want to hit me, but you couldn't hit me, and you would be angry and helpless. It must be very interesting."

Listening to Ji Ren's description, Yue Shen also smiled. She didn't expect this scene at all. She could also foresee her own anger under such a trajectory, but compared with the present, she felt that this didn't seem so bad.

"Unfortunately, we can't go back. The world is changing, and you and I have to change too. You are truly the Moon Goddess now, and I am the third-generation chief of the Chan Sect, Erlang Shen Ji Ren. The catastrophe is coming again, and you and I both need to become stronger. Do you know what I was thinking when I saw the Queen of Shang dancing before?" Ji Ren said.

"What?" asked the Moon Goddess.

"If one day, I die, and you are forced to dance like this, unwillingly but having to do it, like a walking corpse, what will you do? I thought about it for a moment, but couldn't think any further, because it would be more painful than letting me die." Ji Ren said.

The Moon Goddess's delicate body trembled slightly.

“I don’t want to die, and I don’t want to be like you and the Queen of Shang, and all of these require strength. Just like now, I can’t even kill Kuiniu. I am weaker than I expected, so I have to become stronger, I want to be invincible, and try to see if this Destiny Slash can cut it off.” At the end, Ji Ren’s eyes were murderous.

He lied.

He will not let the Bull Demon King go.

The Bull Demon King is dead, he said.

Since Master Tongtian wants to stop him, he will become stronger.

One day, he will say in front of everyone that he has decided to defeat Kuiniu, and even Tongtian Jiaozhu cannot stop him.

Feeling Ji Ren's firm attitude, Yue Shen had thousands of words in her throat, but in the end, only two words remained on her lips, "Be careful."

She knew she couldn't persuade Ji Ren.

In a sense, killing the Bull Demon King now is not only for her, but also for Ji Ren's vengeance.

A natural born god of war, he cannot lose his temper, otherwise if he gets discouraged, then it will be all over.

"Yes, I will not die. I want to become the strongest. I will kill that old cow, skin it to make shoes, and then eat its meat. I wanted you to dance before, but I haven't even seen you dance, and they still want to do it. What a joke." Ji Ren put away his murderous aura and cursed.

"Next time you come, I'll dance for you to see." said the Moon Goddess.

"Okay. It's a deal." Ji Ren agreed cheerfully, then turned and left, looking forward to their next meeting.

The Moon Goddess stood there, staring at Ji Ren's departing figure infatuatedly until Ji Ren's figure disappeared. Then she withdrew her gaze, thinking of the promise just now, and shook her head gently. If she continued like this, it would not just be Ren Qingyue who would fall in love with him.

Or in other words, she was still Ren Qingyue from beginning to end.

Yue Shen was a little confused about this problem, but she could think about it next time they met. What she needed to do now was to practice.

She wants to become stronger.

Otherwise it will only become a burden.

The Moon Goddess practiced with her eyes closed, absorbing the myriad moonlight, when suddenly she sensed that something on the Moon was calling her. She frowned slightly, opened her eyes and looked in the direction of the sensation. It was the laurel tree that was half-destroyed by the aftermath of the battle between Ji Ren and Bull Demon King.

The laurel tree used to be very tall and beautiful, but now only half of it is dead.

But for some reason, the Moon Goddess stared at the half-dead tree and vaguely saw a bow.

It is dark and deep, ordinary, but it seems to contain infinite power, as if it can shoot down the sun in the sky.
