Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#1247 - I am smart most of the time.

Jieyin's expression at this moment was as cold as ice, and one could even faintly see a murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

This damned Jade Emperor, why did he have to bring up what he shouldn't, actually revealing his most important matter?!

However, Jieyin possessed an extremely strong mental fortitude, and he turned around to address the Jade Emperor with a gentle expression:

"Your Majesty is joking. Now that the Gates of the Abyss are wide open, the demonic race has already invaded the Three Realms. The most urgent task should be to resist the demonic race."

"The matter of the Journey to the West is just a relatively small task. Your Majesty need not worry about it."

"This humble monk assures Your Majesty that as long as we first deal with the demons who have escaped from the Gates of the Abyss, preventing them from disturbing the Three Realms, the Heavenly Court can also manage the Journey to the West together in the future."

Jieyin's tactic of retreating to advance was extremely clever.

However, the Jade Emperor's expression was indifferent, and he said calmly:

"Sage Jieyin is joking. Have you forgotten what you were so earnestly saying when you suppressed my Heavenly Court?"

Jieyin's expression instantly changed! Damn it! This damned thing was really grabbing onto his sore spot and beating him to death!

The Jade Emperor sneered:

After the Jade Emperor finished speaking, he leaned back tactically, his face full of smugness.

Beloved subject, We are not a vase. Most of the time, We are extremely clever!

Chu Hao was worried that he couldn't find an excuse to intervene in the Journey to the West as soon as possible, especially now that the Western Heavens were putting on a strong and domineering appearance to control the Journey to the West.

But the Jade Emperor's move brought Chu Hao great hope. This was Jieyin's own promise, and Chu Hao's actions were completely justified!

Jieyin's face had completely darkened, filled with gloom.

But no matter how much he cursed in his heart at this moment, it was useless.

Because this was indeed what he had said. Even if Chu Hao wanted to join the Journey to the West, he had no right to stop him.

Chu Hao looked at Jieyin and said coldly:

"Sage Jieyin, don't you really want to violate your promise again? You must think clearly!"

The Tongtian Sect Leader slowly drew out the Qingping Sword, his face filled with surging murderous intent.

"You must think clearly! My longsword has long been thirsty!"

Jieyin's face turned from black to white.

He had indeed wanted to violate his promise just now, but he was extremely frightened by the Tongtian Sect Leader's threat!

Damn it, if he violated the oath again, the damage from two backlashes would put Jieyin in great danger.

In that state, if the Tongtian Sect Leader struck him with a sword, it might even cost him his life!

That was not a joke. That sword would definitely be enough to make Jieyin's life hang by a thread, not just the humiliation of a hammer shattering his crotch.

A Sage's life was extremely precious, and even slightly risky things were not good to do.

Not to mention putting himself in a life-or-death situation!

Jieyin looked at the Tongtian Sect Leader's icy and ferocious face, then at Chu Hao's face with a faint smile, and then at the incomparably majestic Jade Emperor.

Jieyin's face was extremely gloomy. He wanted to struggle a little more.

"As a dignified Sage, I naturally wouldn't do something untrustworthy."

"But now there is indeed a crisis in the Three Realms. When the demonic race's offensive slightly eases, you can do whatever you want with the Journey to the West!"

However, Chu Hao smiled insincerely:

"That won't do. I want to return to the Journey to the West now, immediately, right away."

"If you don't stop me now, you won't have a chance to stop me in the future."

"Think carefully, Little Jieyin."

Chu Hao slowly took a step and set off towards the outside of the Heavenly Court.

Jieyin's eyes were extremely cold, staring fixedly at Chu Hao, and he anxiously roared:

"You dare!"

The Tongtian Sect Leader's Qingping Sword was unsheathed, and he said coldly:

"What wouldn't he dare?"

"It's you, do you dare?"

Jieyin's anger instantly cooled down under the Tongtian Sect Leader's Qingping Sword.

This Tongtian Sect Leader was definitely not joking. As long as he dared to make a move, the next second he would be in a dead end!

Jieyin and the Tongtian Sect Leader were old enemies. The decline of the Intercept Sect in the past was largely due to the Western Sect. The Tongtian Sect Leader had always held a grudge.

This time, the Tongtian Sect Leader came partly for this reason.

Jieyin was extremely conflicted in his heart.

If he made a move, he could break the oath and keep Chu Hao here, even if it was just to delay Chu Hao for a few days.

With the current progress of the Journey to the West, it would be enough as long as they passed the Wuji Kingdom.

But if he made a move now, the next second the Tongtian Sect Leader's longsword would slash over.

Continuously breaking his two oaths, the backlash would make Jieyin suffer terribly and greatly reduce his strength.

And the Tongtian Sect Leader was not some trash fish. His strength was also in the upper reaches among the Sages.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to fight against the Four Great Sages with the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation back then.

Now, in a one-on-one fight, Jieyin even had to fight the Tongtian Sect Leader while suffering two backlashes. Jieyin would be seriously injured, and there was even a possibility of him falling!

This was betting on his life!

Jieyin only calculated it secretly and felt that it was very uneconomical.

He had experienced endless tribulations before finally cultivating to the realm of the Heavenly Dao Sage.

If he was really seriously injured or even fell, wouldn't that be a big loss?

Anyway, Chu Hao was just a mere Fourth-Rank Quasi-Sage. Even if he let him go to the Journey to the West, there was still a glimmer of hope.

There were strong people guarding the Wuji Kingdom, and Chu Hao would not be able to go against the heavens.

Thinking of this, Jieyin stopped struggling.

A dog's life was precious, a dog's life was important.

Jieyin put away his fierce murderous intent, and his face once again showed a compassionate and gentle expression.

"Forget it, forget it. Prison God Chu Hao is also worried about his relatives and friends in the Journey to the West. I naturally understand, so just go."

"However, there are many demons and dangers on the Journey to the West. I hope that Your Excellency Prison God will be careful."

Jieyin seemed to be reminding him, but the threat in his words was obvious.

Chu Hao's mouth raised a playful smile.

"Hehe, I don't need the Sage to worry. I don't know what calamities are waiting for me in the Journey to the West. I'm looking forward to it."

"I'll go now. Sage, you don't need to see me off."

Chu Hao immediately transformed into a golden light, using the Golden Crow Transformation Rainbow Technique, and disappeared before everyone's eyes.

Chu Hao's speed was so fast that he could no longer be sensed in the blink of an eye, even more exaggerated than before.

Jieyin frowned secretly, not knowing why, but he always felt that Chu Hao was very different now.

But he couldn't say exactly where he was different. He just vaguely felt a… dangerous aura.

Jieyin shook his head secretly in his heart, scaring himself. He was a dignified Sage, afraid of a Quasi-Sage?
