Chapter 651
In just a fleeting moment, Ao Lie felt as if he had been placed on the chopping board, waiting for the ferocious monkey to wield the knife and cut him into pieces, wondering how it would skin him, draw his tendons, and slice his flesh.
Terrifying!
Thus, very submissively, Ao Lie took over the Flood Dragon's carcass and awkwardly began to play chef.
A Flood Dragon hotpot feast, bringing unbridled joy to one human, one monkey, and one dragon.
Of course, the man was thoroughly delighted, the monkey felt the taste was decent, while the one dragon wore a bitter expression, tearfully consuming the Flood Dragon meat with its Dragon Vein bloodline.
The Pure Dragon Clan occasionally indulges in a bite of demon beast carrying Dragon Vein bloodlines, but absolutely wouldn't eat demons whose blood concentration has nearly transformed into dragons.
Flood Dragons are one of those cases; despite transforming, they merely remain at the lowest rung of the Pure Dragon Clan, yet still count as part of the clan!
Had he not been unable to defeat the ferocious monkey and bald monk, Ao Lie would've taught them a lesson!
No matter how Chen Sanzang and the monkey tormented Ao Lie, that Little White Dragon truly endured it.
This also made one human and one monkey see a bit of his disposition, realizing he had some potential for training.
After deliberately putting Ao Lie down once, one human, one monkey, and one dragon set off leisurely on the road again.
From this day onward, the naive Little White Dragon essentially opened his eyes, witnessing how the Drinking and Eating Monk became the Flower Monk.
Utterly absurd!
Indeed, wherever they went, they laid down; every Mountain Spirit and Demon was either consumed or truly satisfied.
Having lived through more time and seen more of it, the notion of the simple Little White Dragon gradually became twisted.
Once a dragon had its nature awakened, one human and one dragon were truly kindred spirits,
As for the monkey, it remained as an indifferent observer by the side, not exchanging wickedness with these two, though it would help them find female demons.
As a reward, the monkey became extremely relaxed, merely needing to follow Chen Sanzang leisurely on the trip, while all travel chores were taken up by the Little White Dragon.
This was quite agreeable; however, each night inexplicably reminded him of his carefree days as the Monkey King on Huaguo Mountain.
Back then, carefree and content, he had the entire monkey troop submitting to his command, with countless mother monkeys vying for his favor, bringing him infinite joy.
Just when the Westward Journey group leisurely spent their days, Chen Sanzang and companions finally approached Gao Village.
Chen Sanzang was pondering whether to roast a piglet in front of Zhu Ganglie.
Sun Wukong was contemplating how the beauty Zhu Ganglie had defiled this time compared to Chang'e in the Heavenly Palace.
The Little White Dragon was mulling over whether there was a prettier female demon nearby, realizing following the right leader indeed indulges one in endless pleasures.
Gao Village was not large; the three scanned the place clean with their Primordial Spirits.
The entire village was enveloped in a vast demon energy, within which intertwined strands of Immortal Energy.
This explained why, despite the dense nature's spiritual energy at Gao Village, other demons hadn't settled here.
For a Great Demon lived here with a background linked to the Heavenly Court, and ordinary demons dared not provoke it.
"Old Chen, I'll go meet a former friend from the Heavenly Court."
Sun Wukong casually mentioned, vanishing in a flip.
"Let's go, such a large village, might as well purchase some provisions and spices, and check out this village owner's situation."
Whether to accept Zhu Ganglie was a question; Chen Sanzang contemplated whether to simply stew the old pig.
After all, this fellow worked for the Heavenly Court and had connections with the Human Sect; the high likelihood was Zhu Ganglie was a nominal disciple of Master Xuan Du.
It's not surprising, given this character could obtain the Nine-toothed Iron Rake forged by Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad and learn Spells like Heavenly Gang Thirty-Six Transformations.
Without a deep background, even just the Nine-toothed Iron Rake wasn't a Treasure ordinary immortals could obtain, let alone the Thirty-Six Transformations.
Recognize that the Heavenly Gang Thirty-Six Transformations and Earthly Fiendish 72 Transformations are precious Spells that allow Immortals and Buddhas to evade the Three Disasters.
Across the vast number of Immortals and Buddhas, very few possess complete transmission of these two Spell sets.
Moreover, those who do achieve it reach significant accomplishments, such as Erlang God and Sun Wukong.
Of course, Chen Sanzang now also has access to these two Spell sets, though his was obtained through connections with Old Xi from the influential figures behind him.
Gao Village, home to dozens of families, lived relatively prosperous lives.
As they shopped along the way and made inquiries, they roughly gathered information about the place.
Decades ago, Gao Village was under the control of Lu Erjie, a demon from Fuling Mountain Yunzhan Cave.
Fortunately, this Rabbit Spirit didn't revel in chaos but instead ensured favorable weather, granting Gao Village bountiful harvests every year.
And the Gao Family, the largest gentry of Gao Village, was specially promoted by Lu Erjie as the landlord managing the village.
Yet about a dozen years ago, the situation changed slightly when Gao Family received a visiting son-in-law, a Pig Demon!
The villagers recounted that this Pig Demon first killed Lu Erjie, seized control of Fuling Mountain Yunzhan Cave and Gao Village.
Despite not committing atrocities or tormenting locals, this Pig Demon was excessively lustful, fancying Gao Family's girl, Gao Cuilan, and becoming the visiting son-in-law.
What could they do, considering the demon's immense power?
Mr. Gao had to swallow his anger and accept this marriage, resulting in Gao Cuilan, the beautiful lady, marrying this ugly Pig Demon.
Nonetheless, this Pig Demon's vast Mana and expertise in Wind and Rain Summoning Technique guaranteed favorable weather for Gao Village and surrounding villages.
