Indeed, upon hearing Sun Wukong’s words, Lu Dongbin’s eyes suddenly lit up.
He thought what Sun Wukong said made sense.
He hadn’t even considered that point before he directly refused, which was simply a problem with his brain.
Luckily, Sun Wukong reminded him, and only then did he realize the benefit.
Seeing Lu Dongbin’s face ripple with a smile, He Xiangu sneered, "Look at him, he’s definitely not thinking about anything good."
"He’s absolutely thinking about flirting with the Female Demoness."
They knew Lu Dongbin too well.
Lu Dongbin immediately looked indignant and dissatisfied, and said, "You guys really underestimate people, do I look like that kind of person?"
With a snort, Han Xiangzi disdainfully said, "Remove ’look like’, and you are that kind of person."
"Han Xiangzi is right,"
Zhong Liquan also said with a smile.
This was Lu Dongbin’s master; even his own master said this about him, where could Lu Dongbin refute.
He snorted, but would never admit it no matter what.
However, to face the common censure.
Lu Dongbin found it hard to defend himself, who asked him to behave so unrestrainedly in the past.
"The remaining Eight Immortals will stay and build strength at Huaguo Mountain. Bai Yu, you follow Dongbin, and take alongside twenty immortals, consider it a form of training. Chaotic times are approaching, if everyone wants to survive, we need to boost our strength,"
hearing Sun Wukong’s words, everyone shivered inside.
They were somewhat shocked, was the future that grim? Listening to Sun Wukong, he seemed quite pessimistic about the future of the Three Realms.
All immortals were somewhat surprised.
The Lion Camel King couldn’t help but shrink his neck, he said nervously, "Nihou, I’ll just stay in Huaguo Mountain from now on and not go anywhere until the Three Realms stabilize completely."
It was then Sun Wukong noticed the Lion Camel King.
It wasn’t that he did not care about this brother, primarily because he was usually very low-key and often, he would just find a place to sleep soundly.
Even since he came to Huaguo Mountain, the number of times Sun Wukong saw him had not exceeded twenty.
Thinking for a moment, Sun Wukong said, "Fourth brother, if you didn’t speak up, I would have forgotten about you. Your strength has reached the peak of Celestial Immortal; it’s time for a breakthrough."
The Lion Camel King’s heart skipped; he seemed to understand Sun Wukong’s meaning.
"What do you want me to do?"
"Accompany Dongbin to search for heavenly treasures and earth’s secrets."
Sun Wukong stated directly.
The Lion Camel King said outright.
Then, he said with dissatisfaction, "Nihou, I am your elder brother, not your subordinate, you cannot treat me this way."
Sun Wukong knew that he was just lazy.
The Lion Camel King’s strength had long been at the peak of Celestial Immortal and even like them in the past, he could contend with an average Heavenly Venerate.
Moreover, with the changes in the world, he should have made a breakthrough long ago.
Thinking this, Sun Wukong smiled faintly, "Fourth brother, if you are unwilling, you can leave my Huaguo Mountain. I never considered you a subordinate, just angry at your complacency. Of course, you can also try to find Old Ox; I will inform The Bodhisattva Guanyin not to look after you. By then, you can return to your Great Thousand Worlds and be supreme, no one will bother you."
The Lion Camel King’s mouth gaped; he stared at Sun Wukong speechlessly.
This little brother was truly ruthless.
With these words, even if he didn’t want to go out, he couldn’t.
Sun Wukong completely cut off his retreat.
The Lion Camel King absolutely believed that if Sun Wukong asked The Bodhisattva Guanyin not to take him in, she would not.
Thinking this, the Lion Camel King sulked and glared fiercely at Sun Wukong, saying, "You’re ruthless."
After speaking, he stood next to Lu Dongbin.
"Old Lu, you must protect me well in the future. I am just a poor and helpless Little Immortal, yet I was bullied by my own brother; I am really too pitiable."
The Lion Camel King looked wronged.
Lu Dongbin chuckled and patted the Lion Camel King on the shoulder, saying, "Don’t worry, I will definitely take special care of you."
His smile was somewhat wicked, which made the Lion Camel King’s heart twitch.
The Lion Camel King could not help but complain, "Don’t smile like that; why do I feel you’re not any better, smiling so wickedly, you seem even less reliable than Nihou, you’re not planning to trap me, are you?"
Seeing his skeptical face, Lu Dongbin laughed heartily, "How could that be, no matter what happens, you must believe that whatever I do, it’s all for your own good."
Hearing Lu Dongbin’s words, the Lion Camel King had a bad feeling.
This guy was absolutely unreliable.
Sun Wukong laughed, "Alright, stop scaring my fourth brother. Go prepare, and pick some people with potential, and take them out."
Lu Dongbin’s expression became serious, and he nodded.
Although he sometimes seemed unreliable, when it was time to actually get things done, he was completely different.
Lu Dongbin, with a reluctantly-faced Lion Camel King, went down to pick some immortals, preparing to form a small team.
As they trained themselves, they also searched for heavenly treasures and natural secrets.
Actually, often being with Sun Wukong, Lu Dongbin could feel that sense of urgency in Sun Wukong’s heart.
The Great Saint was very eager to improve the strength of those around him and his own.
Sun Wukong felt quite pessimistic about the future, as if he sensed some terrible event was about to happen.
Lu Dongbin and his group set off, leaving the area.
Soon, the Bluebird brought Sun Wukong a piece of news.
The White Tiger had disappeared.
Sun Wukong was astonished. Where had this girl gone now?
