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

#1658 - I won’t tell you, what can you do to me?

Nine-Headed Bug was stunned. Wasn't he supposed to haggle for a bit, then feign helplessness before revealing the relic?

Why did this Journey to the West team seem so violent?

Clearly, Sun Wukong didn't give Nine-Headed Bug any room to hesitate. He stepped forward and arrived beside Nine-Headed Bug in a flash.

Nine-Headed Bug wasn't exactly a weakling. After all, he had some of the blood of the Evil Dragon clan, and his strength was in no way inferior to Sun Wukong's.

However, even so, Sun Wukong was still able to gain the upper hand.

Sun Wukong was now in a frenzy, swinging his golden staff like a propeller, hammering Nine-Headed Bug's head.

Nine-Headed Bug was dumbfounded.

"How can I, a branch of the Evil Dragon clan, be inferior to a mere Sun Wukong?"

Nine-Headed Bug didn't know that Sun Wukong, after obtaining the Heart of the God of War, had become even more powerful, completely without limitations.

Sun Wukong's strength complemented the Heart of the God of War, elevating his combat power to a new level.

Therefore, even Nine-Headed Bug couldn't withstand Sun Wukong's powerful attacks.

In just a moment, Sun Wukong had already pinned Nine-Headed Bug to the ground and was beating him mercilessly.

Sun Wukong pointed his golden staff at Nine-Headed Bug's head and laughed:

"Little thief, do you understand the situation now? I heard you stole the relics from the pagoda in the Kingdom of祭赛. Hand them over, and your grandpa Sun will spare your life!"

In the shadows, Guanyin Bodhisattva was also watching, and a strange sense of threat enveloped Nine-Headed Bug.

Nine-Headed Bug could also sense Guanyin Bodhisattva's prying eyes. For Nine-Headed Bug, he really didn't dare to blatantly give himself away.

Interesting? Could it be that he had broken through the shackles of the Evil Dragon clan's bloodline, or was he just such a person with unyielding integrity?

However, the next second, Chu Hao understood.

Sun Wukong didn't waste any words with Nine-Headed Bug. He swung his staff and smashed it on Nine-Headed Bug's head, directly denting one of Nine-Headed Bug's heads!

"Ahhh!!!"

Nine-Headed Bug had nine heads, and the head that was hit almost exploded. He trembled on the ground in pain, shouting:

"Hero, spare me! Stop hitting me! It's all my fault. I just spoke a little loudly. I'll confess everything!"

Chu Hao twitched his lips. Good fellow, it seemed that Nine-Headed Bug still had the appearance of the Evil Dragon clan. This kind of obedience, engraved in his bones, was simply impossible to change.

Sun Wukong pointed at Nine-Headed Bug and shouted, "Speak! If there's even half a lie, your head will explode!"

Nine-Headed Bug hesitated for a full second, then chose to betray the Western Heavens.

"It's like this. A long time ago, the Western Heavens had already hooked up with a strong member of our Evil Dragon clan, wanting the Evil Dragon clan to set up tribulations on the journey to the Western Heavens.

My old dragon king and I weren't members of the Evil Dragon clan, so we didn't know about this before. But later, the Western Heavens came to us."

Chu Hao looked at Nine-Headed Bug. He had clearly explained the affairs of the Evil Dragon clan, but he obviously didn't know too many details.

However, judging from this, the Western Heavens had been colluding with the Evil Dragon clan for a long time, even before now.

Thinking about the gluttonous beast they had taken out before, didn't that mean that the Western Heavens actually had extremely powerful forces hidden away, but they had never actively used them?

In Chu Hao's heart, there was a little more understanding.

Nine-Headed Bug continued:

"Just a while ago, the Western Heavens sent people down to ask my old dragon king and me to do things for them. At first, I was very firm and refused sternly!"

Chu Hao twitched his lips, thinking about what you just did. I don't believe you refused sternly...

Nine-Headed Bug looked embarrassed.

"However, the prestige of the Western Heavens is not something we can resist. Soon, we were forced to join the Western Heavens' actions.

They caused a rain of blood, allowing us to take the relics from the pagoda in the chaos..."

Chu Hao suddenly asked in confusion:

"Was there also a princess who stole something from the Heavenly Court?"

A look of fear appeared on Nine-Headed Bug's face. He quickly knelt down.

"Immortal Lord, spare us! We wouldn't dare to steal anything from the Heavenly Court even if we had ten thousand guts! Who doesn't know the prestige of the Enforcement Hall!"

Chu Hao raised an eyebrow.

"You know who I am? Then you also know what the consequences are for stealing things in my territory?"

Nine-Headed Bug was about to cry.

"This really wasn't our doing. It was..."

Nine-Headed Bug hesitated for a moment. After all, this matter involved the Western Heavens again. Wouldn't it be a little bad to say it all?

Chu Hao just glanced at Nine-Headed Bug coldly.

"Not saying it means you're guilty. Since you admit it, then it's easy to handle."

Nine-Headed Bug's face turned green with fright. He was joking. Admitting to stealing treasures from the Heavenly Court in front of the狱神 of the Three Realms Enforcement Hall was tantamount to death!

Thinking about a certain Western Heaven, who was severely punished for violating the Heavenly Rules back then, how could a broken household like himself possibly survive!

Of course, Nine-Headed Bug knew what was good for him.

"Big shot, I was wrong. I'll tell the truth. The Western Heavens borrowed a wild flower from the roadside when they were attending a meeting in the Heavenly Court and sent it to us, telling us to falsely claim that it was a stolen Ganoderma lucidum from the heavens in order to strengthen our evil image.

But big shot, you can see for yourself, I really don't have that much courage. How could I possibly steal things from the Heavenly Court? I wouldn't dare even if you beat my dog head to pieces!"

Chu Hao twitched his lips. Secretly picking a wild flower and daring to say it was stealing the Queen Mother's Ganoderma lucidum? This Western Heaven was quite good at making excuses for themselves.

The Western Heavens were also regaining face in a certain sense. After all, Chu Hao had pried up the floor of the Western Heavens. Although they couldn't truly retaliate against the Enforcement Hall, they could act secretly!

The imagined revenge: The Western Heavens mobilized all their forces to suppress the Enforcement Hall.

The actual revenge: The Western Heavens spread rumors, falsely claiming to have stolen from the Heavenly Court.

Chu Hao just smiled awkwardly and patted Nine-Headed Bug on the shoulder.

"Alright, you've confessed enough. Hand over the items and don't waste my time."

Nine-Headed Bug still wanted to struggle for a bit. "I lost that relic..."

However, Nine-Headed Bug raised his head, but his face turned green.
