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

#1693 - Nine-headed insect: I suspect I am an undercover agent

Nine-Headed Insect was ecstatic, as this was exactly what he had been hoping for. All he wanted was a chance to enter the Demon Clan, and this time, it was an opportunity to be enfeoffed as a marquis and appointed as a minister!

Now was the perfect opportunity!

Nine-Headed Insect excitedly bowed his head, waiting for the reward.

However, the reward and recognition that Nine-Headed Insect expected did not come. Instead, he heard Gu Yang's voice, which was unusually cold,

"Nine-Headed Insect, do you know your crime?"

Nine-Headed Insect's eyes widened. Was he going to be accused again?

He was dumbfounded, completely dumbfounded.

Nine-Headed Insect cautiously raised his head and glanced at Gu Yang, only to see Gu Yang's face filled with阴沉coldness, a substantial and heavy suspicion.

Nine-Headed Insect panicked. Gu Yang must have discovered something, otherwise, he wouldn't be putting such baseless pressure on him.

A thought flashed through Nine-Headed Insect's mind. Without time to think, he trembled and said,

"Great Commander, what exactly did I do wrong? Didn't Shadow Demon General return?"

Gu Yang remained noncommittal.

"He did return, but how was he captured? Moreover, it happened twice. We suspect that there is a mole within our ranks."

Nine-Headed Insect was greatly shocked.

"If that's the case, it's very possible. After all, Shadow Demon General's actions were very secretive, but both times he made contact with the Western Heavens, he was discovered. There must be a problem.

Great Commander, don't worry, let me deduce it."

At this moment, Nine-Headed Insect used all his skills to protect himself, and without thinking, he said nervously,

"Regarding the matter of trading with the Western Heavens, so far, apart from Heaven and Earth, only three people know: Great Commander Gu Yang, Shadow Demon General, and me.

Great Commander, you are stationed in the Demon Clan, and you are the commander at this time. You and Shadow Demon General are as close as brothers and could not possibly be a mole. We can eliminate you first.

Shadow Demon General, as the executor, is at the forefront, taking the lead and going through fire and water for the Demon Clan.

As for the third person, me, I have always been on the periphery of the entire mission, neither participating nor commanding."

Nine-Headed Insect looked at Shadow Demon and said without thinking,

"Shadow Demon General, look, it's just the two of us left. I suspect that I myself am the mole..."

After saying that, Nine-Headed Insect froze in place, dumbfounded.

Huh?

Did I just say something dangerous?

Nine-Headed Insect was stunned, his whole being was dumbfounded.

Something seems wrong, but I don't know where the problem lies.

Gu Yang stared at Nine-Headed Insect, his eyes as cold as ice.

"Since you yourself have stated the deduction, do you think I can still keep you?"

Nine-Headed Insect was terrified and quickly knelt down, kowtowing like pounding garlic.

"Great Commander, it's really not me, it's really not me..."

Gu Yang still stared coldly at Nine-Headed Insect, but remained silent.

The greatest threat is not shouting, but silence.

Gu Yang's silence made Nine-Headed Insect feel as if his whole body was surrounded by endless seawater. The strong sense of compression made Nine-Headed Insect feel suffocated.

Shadow Demon also looked coldly at Nine-Headed Insect from the side.

"Actually, you may have unknowingly leaked the information. After all, the abilities of the Western Heavens are such that they can obtain information without your knowledge, and even plant something in your brain without you knowing."

Nine-Headed Insect was startled when he heard this, and his face turned pale.

"How is that possible? Damn it, could it be that they have really made a move against me."

Nine-Headed Insect increasingly felt that this statement was very possible. After all, the Western Heavens were capable of directly turning a group of demons who were jealous and hated the Western Heavens into soulless puppets. If the Western Heavens had really used some means on him, he would definitely not be able to detect it.

Nine-Headed Insect was terrified. He had only thought about taking advantage of this tribulation of the Western Heavens to gain some benefits, but he didn't expect that he was seeking skin from a tiger and had already fallen into a trap!

Nine-Headed Insect panicked.

"I didn't do it intentionally, the Western Heavens framed me. I am truly loyal to the Demon Clan! Moreover, even if I don't have merit, I have worked hard! I even brought Shadow Demon General back!"

At this moment, Nine-Headed Insect no longer dared to mention the matter of rewarding him. All he wanted now was to survive.

At the same time, Nine-Headed Insect had a new understanding of Gu Yang's majesty. This was an existence whose wisdom was close to that of a demon, and who could see through everything.

He was like a god overlooking all living beings, and his wise eyes could see into everyone's heart.

With such a general, why should the Demon Clan worry about not succeeding?

Just when Nine-Headed Insect thought he was doomed, he suddenly heard Gu Yang's indifferent voice again.

"An unintentional mistake, although it caused a great error, you have also made some amends. I have always been clear about rewards and punishments. Considering that you have also made some contributions, I will give you some rewards, so that the Demon Clan knows that the Demon Clan will not mistreat those who work hard for the Demon Clan."

When Nine-Headed Insect heard these words, he was stunned once again.

Today's ups and downs came too quickly!

One thought heaven, one thought hell!

Just now, Nine-Headed Insect thought he was doomed, but he didn't expect that Great Commander Gu Yang would be so reliable. Not only did he not kill him, but he would even give him a reward?!

Good heavens!

What a truly good general!

Nine-Headed Insect was moved to tears and kowtowed repeatedly.

"This matter was caused by the little demon being inadvertently harmed by the Western Heavens. Great Commander Gu Yang being able to spare the little demon's life is already enough to satisfy the little demon. How dare I ask for any reward?"

Gu Yang was indifferent.

"A gentleman's word is as good as a bronze chariot. Whether it is enfeoffment as a marquis or appointment as a minister, or a treasure of the Demon Clan, I will give it to you after some time. However, the premise is that you have to find the means used by the Western Heavens on you and remove them."

Nine-Headed Insect was stunned, his face filled with confusion.

"But, how can little demon..."

Gu Yang waved his hand, interrupting Nine-Headed Insect's words.

"Shadow Demon General will help you. He is more experienced than you. His words are my words. Step back."

Upon hearing this, Nine-Headed Insect quickly kowtowed repeatedly.

"Understood, little demon understands, everything will be according to the general's instructions!"

Shadow Demon nodded.

"You will go with me first to find that Prison God Chu Hao. We will make a decision during that tribulation."

......

The human world, Jisaiguo, a certain palace of the king.

It is said that Chu Hao took a large pile of treasures from the Western Heavens and returned fully loaded, and he also had the relic in his hand.

Tang Sanzang looked at Chu Hao worriedly.

"Immortal Lord, if we put the relic back into the Golden Light Temple, I fear that the people of this Jisaiguo will be manipulated even more by the Western Heavens and will no longer be able to escape the control of the Western Heavens."

Chu Hao nodded.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Pig Bajie was even more worried and said:

"But boss, you have already made an oath to the Heavenly Dao. What if there is a backlash!"
