The Emperor Reigns Them All

Chapter 425 I Also Miss My Sister-in-law

When the Roc Demon King laughed at him in front of the demons, the Lion Camel King couldn’t keep calm anymore, and his white face instantly turned red. Staring at the giant roc on the back of the chair, he said angrily, “You b*stard! A filthy mouth cannot utter decent language. Believe it or not, I’ll pluck out your hair and cook you over the fire.”

The Roc Demon King sneered. “You coward. If you have the guts, you can try. Let’s see who can eat each other’s flesh.”

The two demons were not just quarreling, and they were angry. They really had a temper.

The Lion Camel King suddenly stood up and threw the folding fan backward. He rolled up his sleeves and prepared to fight. When the Roc Demon King spread his wings, his body began to expand along with his 3 meters long wings.

“You’re not the Tang Monk, so you can’t live forever even though you eat each other’s flesh. Why get so angry?” The Flood Dragon Demon King sighed on the chair. He didn’t raise his head, and his head rested on his body, looking particularly languid. As he spoke, only the two long whiskers shook.

As he spoke, everyone turned to look at him. The Roc Demon King and the Lion Camel King, who were ready to fight, looked at him as well, wanting to hear what he would say.

However, after saying that, he forgot the subject and turned to fall into memories. He said slowly, “Back to the old days, I was just a small snake in the Qiantang River. My favorite thing to do every day was swim alone to waterweeds and look up at the starry sky at dead of night. The stars were so beautiful that I would look at them all night long.”

“In those lazy and casual days, my biggest wish was that no one disturbed my life, ate me, or bothered me. I looked at the Milky Way and stars, and I just wanted to live a quiet life...”

He said slowly. Hearing his words, all the demons swore and told him to shut up.

Fortunately, all the demons were used to it. This old flood dragon was always like this. He often began to recall his past life while talking, and he wouldn’t stop. He didn’t hear other demons’ words at all.

The Bull Demon King was very distressed that the demons were so unreliable. As a leader, he felt it necessary to say something to bring the subject back to the point at this time. After all, all the demons gathered together to discuss important matters.

But he suddenly somehow became angry and began to complain. “When you mention Monk Xuanzang, I’m angry. He made the monkey fall out with me and turned the Great Sage of the demon clan into a disciple of Buddhism! More importantly, he was sinister, and he deceived my brother by partnering with that f*cking Saint Buddha, which made my brother depressed all day long!”

The Bull Demon King sighed. He said with anger and sadness, “In those days, we, Seven Sages, played together all day long and were very happy. I haven’t seen the monkey for a hundred years. I heard that he sat on Huaguo Mountain all day long, very lonely...”

At this point, the Bull Demon King’s eyes turned red.

He originally thought that the demons would at least take pity on the monkey and unite together against the enemy after he said this. Then, they would return to the main topic.

However, he didn’t see the scene of brotherhood, and all the demons looked at him blankly, as if they were wondering why he would act like the old flood dragon.

The old flood dragon fell into deep memories and whispered to himself, “I thought I would accompany the change of the seasons calmly until the end of the universe. But one day, I forgot the time, and I didn’t leave at dawn. At that time, a village girl came to the river to wash clothes. Ah, she was very beautiful...”

The Lion Camel King took the opportunity to pick up the folding fan at the back of the chair. He returned to the chair and sat down. Then, he waved the fan quickly again, in a way that he thought was graceful.

He glanced at the demons arrogantly and thought that they were rude and couldn’t compare with him. He snorted proudly and said, “Why bring up the past when the time has passed? In a word, the Immortal Court is powerful now. We can’t go against them openly and wantonly like the monkey. I don’t want to be pressed under the mountain for five hundred years. When I’m hungry, I can only drink molten iron and copper!”

The giant roc closed his wings. Hearing this, he rolled his eyes and twisted his neck. He said disdainfully, “Why don’t you go and eat the sh*t from the Immortal Court? I finally find out what’s going on today. I smell the sh*t from your mouth!”

The Lion Camel King’s white face turned red, and the blue veins on his forehead popped. “Shut up, you b*stard! What do you know? All these years, you left the native land and went to the human world. You built caves in the mountains and enjoyed your life. The Immortal Court didn’t cause you trouble because I helped you, or you would have been eaten long ago!”

The giant roc was furious. “Bullsh*t!”

The Bull Demon King touched his forehead with his hand. He didn’t think the meeting could go on anymore.

He was rough. He was good at fighting, but he wasn’t good at gathering all the demons’ hearts. The great demons in front of him all had high cultivation, but they were unbridled in daily life. It was OK to have fun together, but it would be a mess when they wanted to discuss something.

“Many years have passed, but you’re still the same, not much better than before. Since you, six old demons, can’t discuss things calmly, how can 100,000 demons unite together? In this way, how can you overthrow the Immortal Court and obtain freedom?”

While the Bull Demon King was distressed, a cold voice sounded in his ear. Although what he said was unpleasant, there was no hint of sarcasm.

Hearing this familiar voice, the Bull Demon King was shocked. He turned his head in disbelief and saw a monkey squatting beside him.

“Seventh Brother? When did you come?” The Bull Demon King was extremely shocked. They had not seen each other for more than a hundred years.

The Monkey King looked at the demons and said placidly, “I come when I want to. Do I need to pick a day?”

The demons were already in a mess. The giant roc was fighting the Lion Camel King. They didn’t launch any magical power, but they fought like beasts and thugs. One of them rolled up his sleeves and fought with hands and feet. The other one opened his wings and kept pecking at the other side, making the ground full of feathers. The other old demons hurriedly stepped forward and stopped them.

Only the Flood Dragon Demon King didn’t seem to see them fighting at all. He was still recalling the past on the chair. “I was a snake, so why did I think a village girl from the human world was beautiful? It was unreasonable. We were of different species, so we should have different aesthetic standards... But what could I do? I just thought she was beautiful. Especially, when she washed clothes, she was very beautiful!”

The Bull Demon King gave up half of his seat and warmly greeted the monkey to sit down. He smiled and said, “Seventh Brother, I’m very glad that you can come. What are you here for?” He hoped that he was coming to discuss important matters.

Instead of sitting with the Bull Demon King, the monkey squatted on the arm of the throne. He said, “I’m here to see you.”

The Bull Demon King was moved and almost burst into tears. His brother was miserable, but he still missed him and came to see him from afar.

Before the Bull Demon King could say anything, the monkey turned to glance at him lightly. “Do you believe it?

The Bull Demon King was a little stunned. “Why don’t I believe it? I did believe it at first. But looking at you, I really can’t convince myself to believe it... Why is my heart aching?”

The monkey didn’t care about the Bull Demon King’s mood. He jumped off the armrest and shouted at the demons, “Stop! Go back and sit down!”

The giant roc’s feathers were flying everywhere, and the white-faced scholar’s hair was disheveled and his robe was torn. When the demons heard the monkey’s shout, their ears were ringing. When they turned their heads in horror and saw the monkey, they were all stunned. “Seventh Brother?!”

When the sound wave came, the Flood Dragon Demon King’s head shook as if he had been punched. He raised his head and straightened his slender neck in confusion. When he saw the monkey standing in front of the Bull Demon King, he said in surprise, “Seventh Brother, when did you come?”

The monkey chuckled. “When your pants dropped.”

The Flood Dragon Demon King was startled and immediately panicked. He hurried to pull up his pants. Only then did he realize that he was in his true figure and that he didn’t wear pants.

The Flood Dragon Demon King looked at the monkey with a bitter expression.

The giant roc was busy picking up his feathers, and the white-faced scholar was busy tidying his hair. The other old demons were greeting the monkey warmly. However, the monkey didn’t intend to greet them warmly. Before the demons came in, he said directly, “I just came to tell you one thing. Li Ye will come here when he has finished his work. You are ready to welcome him.”

The demons were stunned. The Lion Camel King stopped tidying his robe and said hurriedly, “It’s not settled yet!”

The monkey squinted at him. “I’m not discussing it with you. I’m informing you.”

The Lion Camel King was unhappy, and his face darkened. “I don’t agree!”

With a thud, a huge iron cudgel hit the ground, causing the seven mountains to tremble. The innocent Flood Dragon Demon King directly flew out of the chair, fell off his seat, and fell on the ground in a messy posture.

Looking at the Lion Camel King, the monkey said coldly, “Look at my iron cudgel. I’ll give you a chance to show your attitude again.”

“I didn’t say anything.” The Lion Camel King turned around and returned to his seat. He took out a bronze mirror and began to concentrate on tidying his hair.

After the pilgrimage for Buddhist scriptures, the monkey’s heart was hurt, but his realm was improved a lot. Except for the Bull Demon King, these old demons were no match for him.

The Bull Demon King laughed to ease the serious and embarrassing atmosphere. He stood up from the throne and put his hand around the monkey’s shoulders. “This matter is settled. Since you rarely come, you should go to my place and have a drink with me!”

The monkey put away his iron cudgel and nodded. He said in a serious and normal way, “Well, I miss my sister-in-law, too.”

The Bull Demon King was speechless.

“I think we’re brothers, but you tell me that you’re missing my wife?”

...

Li Ye and his men left the border of Gubeikou and returned to Youzhou with Liu Shouguang and Huang Xingqin, who looked grieved as if they had lost their parents.

Li Ye didn’t kill the cultivators of the religion of God, who were in the Ground Immortal Realm. After all, they were twenty masters. He wanted to imprison them first and try to incite them to defect. Even if it didn’t work, he would take them back to Pinglu and study them carefully.

Li Ye won the battle because he had timely insight into the fighting methods of the cultivators of the religion of God. But he knew little about the cultivators of the religion of God, so it was necessary for him to communicate with them in detail.

Liu Shouguang committed adultery with the concubine of his father. He had bad virtue, but he didn’t lose his humanity. At the very least, he didn’t kill Liu Rengong. However, when Li Ye met Liu Rengong in prison, he immediately overturned this conclusion. Liu Shouguang really lost his humanity.

He didn’t give food to Liu Rengong, and Liu Rengong was already starving to the point of lack of energy.

“Your Highness... Prince An?” Liu Rengong, who looked gaunt, blinked in disbelief when he saw Li Ye entering the door.

He was a commissioner and could be called a feudal prince, but when he saw Li Ye clearly, he rushed over in two steps and kneeled in front of Li Ye, crying bitterly. “Your Highness! You are finally here. I am incompetent and imprisoned by my son. I feel ashamed, and I disgrace the imperial court. I have no face to see my ancestors!”
