Yang Jian was terrified.
No one had noticed when the Great Sage had arrived. By the time they heard his words, he was already standing half a meter away.
It was the Great Sage's Ruyi Jingu Bang. It slammed into Yang Jian's face and pushed him back a few steps. By now, he didn't seem the least bit as mad as he'd been in the video. His eyes were as clear as water, but his expression was frightening.
"You're here too."
He cocked his head at Ye Zichen and Pu Jingwan and arched his brows, then swung his staff aside.
"Who do you think you're trying to scare?"
"Are you trying to scare me or not? Just tell me if I can beat you up or not. If you don't like the beating just now, I don't mind loosening your bones for free. "
A flash of golden light shot out of the Great Sage's eyes, and his sleeves fluttered.
The Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hands buzzed and trembled, as if he were ready to attack at the slightest provocation.
When he saw this, Ye Zichen's pupils constricted. He didn't care that the Great Sage and Yang Jian were about to fight. They'd been at loggerheads ever since they were in the Heavenly Court, and neither of them had a good opinion of the other. He'd long since grown accustomed to bickering like this.
What shocked him was the Great Sage's aura.
His aura was unparalleled, as if he were looking down on all of heaven and earth, and the faint undulations of Yao God Power emanating from him. Only rulers could release such oppressive pressure.
Ye Zichen glanced at Pu Jingwan, who understood what he was thinking. She nodded.
"He really is a ruler."
Even though Yang Jian had said the Great Sage was already a ruler, that was just his personal judgment. Ye Zichen hadn't seen it for himself.
Now, a ruler-level Great Sage was standing right in front of him. It was hard to imagine how shocked he was.
Ye Zichen didn't know what Yang Jian was thinking, but in the face of the Great Sage's disdainful words, he didn't retaliate.
He licked his lips and scratched his head, but Ye Zichen saw the Great Sage glancing at him.
He was scared.
From the look on his face, it was obvious Yang Jian was scared. Otherwise, given his personality, there was no way he'd tolerate the Great Sage talking to him like that. However, this indirectly proved just how strong the Great Sage was. If their cultivations were similar, Yang Jian would've fought him without a doubt.
It seemed that the difference between the two of them was not just a little.
Now that he thought about it, the Great Sage's cultivation truly was terrifyingly high. Yang Jian was now one of the most powerful figures in the Three Realms. He was strong enough to kill a Demon God. Although his cultivation wasn't higher than Xue Yang's, it was close.
To be able to make Yang Jian admit defeat without uttering a single word, the Great Sage was now …
The realm of the Three Emperors?
Amidst the silence, Yang Jian couldn't help but glance at Ye Zichen. Perhaps seeing that Zhang Xuan did not speak for a long time, she became a little anxious and directly used her divine sense to communicate with him.
"What are you waiting for? Say something!"
Ye Zichen couldn't help but laugh at the urgency and nervousness in his voice. It seemed that Yang Jian really was afraid of the Great Sage beating him with the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
However, the Great Sage couldn't blame anyone for treating him this way. Just look at how despicable he was when he was drunk.
He didn't even think positively about anything. The moment he went up, he suspected that the Great Sage might have been cuckolded. Who would be able to tolerate that?
"Great Sage, if you want to beat him up, then beat him up. I won't stop you."
Not only did Ye Zichen refuse to put in a good word for Yang Jian, but he even took a step back, as if he didn't want to get involved. Pu Jingwan did the same and stepped aside. She also felt that Yang Jian's mouth was a little too vicious. He indiscriminately accused someone of being cuckolded. She couldn't stand it any longer.
"Hey, you guys …. Wah …."
When Yang Jian saw Pu Jingwan and Ye Zichen ignore him and step aside, he pointed at them. He looked like he was on the verge of collapse.
He couldn't speak for a long time. In the end, all he could do was stare at them, mouth agape, as if he'd accidentally made friends.
No one spoke up for him, so Yang Jian cracked his neck and threw caution to the wind.
"Howling Celestial Dog!"
The lance suddenly appeared in his hand, and he called out to the Howling Celestial Dog again. It seemed he was ready to fight.
To his surprise, the Howling Celestial Dog whimpered and wagged its tail. It lay by Ye Zichen's side and didn't move. It didn't so much as glance in his direction.
"You stupid dog, who exactly is your master? I went through untold hardships to help you advance, and now you're f * cking abandoning me? "
Yang Jian roared at the Howling Celestial Dog, but the dog just lay there, ignoring him.
This time, Yang Jian was in a bit of a pickle. The Howling Celestial Dog took up thirty percent of his strength. In a one-on-one fight, he was absolutely no match for the monkey.
"Hah, now you can see how popular you are." The Great Sage curled his lips and put away the Ruyi Jingu Bang. "Look at how pitiful you look. Forget it, I'll let you off the hook."
"What do you mean?" Yang Jian panicked. "Are you looking down on me?"
"Yeah, I'm looking down on you. So what?" The Great Sage sneered, shrank the Ruyi Jingu Bang into his ear, then walked over to Ye Zichen.
Yang Jian stomped his feet in anger and yelled about fighting the Great Sage for three hundred rounds.
But the Great Sage said he wouldn't fight him, so he wouldn't. No matter how much Yang Jian yelled, the Great Sage ignored him and even started chatting with Ye Zichen.
"Bro, why are you here too? Didn't you say you had business to attend to?"
"I've pretty much taken care of things on my end. Yang Jian sent me a message saying you were in trouble, so I came over to take a look. It's good to see you're fine. "
"What did he say?" asked the Great Sage.
"He didn't say much. He just said your emotions weren't too stable and sent me a video call to urge me to come over," said Ye Zichen.
"You have nothing better to do than send a video call!" The Great Sage glared at Yang Jian.
"Don't be so heartless. I felt like you were having a mental breakdown and was afraid something would happen to you. That's why I called Zichen over," said Yang Jian, rolling his eyes.
"I, Lai Sun, have always been very rational. Just now, I only went berserk to stimulate the power Master left in my body. There's no need for you to meddle in other people's business. You even called Ye Zichen over," cursed the Great Sage.
"Master?" Ye Zichen was stunned. "Venerable Xuanzang?"
The Great Sage shook his head. Ye Zichen understood.
"That's him."
Master Subhuti!
The Great Sage had two masters. One was Golden Cicada, who'd been exiled to the mortal realm to seek scriptures. His mortal name was Venerable Xuanzang, and after returning, he became the Buddha of Sandalwood Merit.
As for the other master, he was Master Subhuti.
However, after teaching the Great Sage his ultimate techniques, he left and forbade others from telling them he was his apprentice.
"You saw Master Subhuti again?"
The Great Sage nodded gently. "In truth, I didn't really see him. Do you remember when the demons invaded? Master Subhuti saved me and only woke up half a year ago. After that, he said a few words to me, then kicked me out again. "
