Chapter 8 It's All Because of Acting Like a Big Shot

"Congratulations?"

"Why borrow my body?"

The green-maned lion was utterly bewildered.

His simple mind simply couldn't fathom Sun Kong's intentions.

Moreover, under Sun Kong's intimidating power, he couldn't resist even if he wanted to!

"Brother?"

Just then, a large black bull emerged from the cave dwelling, looking surprised and delighted.

A beautiful woman followed behind him.

Needless to say, they must be the Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan.

Though the Bull Demon King looked dark, his true form was actually a large white bull.

Perhaps a white bull seemed too effeminate.

Did he intentionally tan himself into a black bull?

Sun Kong mused inwardly with a slight complaint.

Then, he immediately broke into a smile and stepped forward to give the Bull Demon King a bear hug.

"Younger brother heard that Elder Brother got married and has come to offer congratulations!"

Sun Kong glanced at Princess Iron Fan beside him.

They say nothing is tastier than dumplings, and nothing is more fun than...

Such profound wisdom!

Fortunately, Sun Kong wasn't that kind of person... monkey.

Furthermore, he was destined to become the Victorious Fighting Buddha, so how could he be like Cao Cao?

However, he absolutely must not think about that incident where Sun Wukong entered Princess Iron Fan's belly.

Otherwise, even Sun Kong would blush!

"Alas, what are you saying, Younger Brother."

"Actually, when I, old Bull, got married, I sent someone to Flower Fruit Mountain."

"But the monkeys said you went to the Heavenly Court to be an official."

"Did your official career not go well, leaving you with free time to come to the West to find your Elder Brother!"

The Bull Demon King put on a concerned expression for Sun Kong.

Those who didn't know him would think he was truly a good elder brother.

Even Princess Iron Fan didn't know how much of an act this black bull put on.

Anyone who has read Journey to the West knows.

When Sun Wukong was in trouble, the Bull Demon King paid no attention.

Even when the monkey was crushed under the Five Elements Mountain for five hundred years, the Bull Demon King never visited him once.

If you were given such a good elder brother, would you want him?

And as a husband.

The Bull Demon King was originally a live-in son-in-law.

It's known that this Jade Cloud Mountain is Princess Iron Fan's territory.

The Bull Demon King married into her family.

But what did he do?

He abandoned his wife and children and got involved with the Jade-Faced Fox.

But this wasn't the worst part.

The truly outrageous thing was that he wasn't interested in the Jade-Faced Fox's body at all.

Rather, it was her wealth.

On the other hand, the Jade-Faced Fox contributed manpower and resources when the Bull Demon King was in trouble.

She even drove away Sun Wukong at one point.

But in return, she faced annihilation.

Ultimately, after the Bull Demon King's defeat, other than begging for mercy, he showed no intention of avenging the Jade-Faced Fox.

Even in the mortal realm, such a heartless demon would be on par with Chen Shimei.

He, worthy of being Sun Kong's elder brother?

"Roar!"

Just then, the green-maned lion behind Sun Kong seemed unwilling to be left out and roared.

Instantly, the Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan looked over.

"This lion... looks strangely familiar!"

"It bears quite a resemblance to Manjushri Bodhisattva's mount."

"Wait, isn't this the Green-Maned Lion?"

The Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan were suddenly greatly astonished.

They weren't fools.

Of course, they could tell whose mount the Green-Maned Lion was.

"Younger Brother, you're truly courting death!"

"You even dare to steal Manjushri Bodhisattva's mount, you're too bold!"

The Bull Demon King's bull eyes widened, and sweat dripped down like raindrops.

He looked like he was terrified.

[Ding, Host has shocked the Bull Demon King, Reward: Original Dharma Body (Ape)]

[Ding, Host has shocked Princess Iron Fan, Reward: Nine-Turn Golden Elixir x10]

The rewards came unexpectedly.

But compared to the surprise of receiving windfalls like before, these rewards hardly piqued Sun Kong's interest.

"How can you call it stealing?"

"That's called lending."

"Moreover, the Green-Maned Lion is one of the Seven Attendants of the Grand Pure One, how could just anyone ride it?"

Sun Kong chuckled, deliberately glancing at the Water-Repelling Golden-Eyed Beast.

Although the Water-Repelling Golden-Eyed Beast was also a descendant of the dragon race.

There was still a vast gap between it and true dragons.

A low-level spirit beast that lacked sentience and couldn't distinguish its master had no value in showing off.

It's like driving an old Santana out; showing off is impossible.

Instead, it would be met with ridicule.

However, in the strict hierarchy of immortals and gods.

Even an old Santana wasn't something just anyone was qualified to drive.

Gods and Buddhas with divine status weren't even qualified.

How could a demon king from the lower realms dare to overstep? Who wouldn't you strike?

"Monkey Sun."

"What do you mean by this?"

The Bull Demon King's old face instantly drooped.

He was angry.

The primary reason for his anger was that Princess Iron Fan's gaze was completely captivated by the Green-Maned Lion.

This was not a big problem in itself.

Mounts, like luxury cars,

Who wouldn't like them?

It's just that this Green-Maned Lion was Sun Monkey's luxury car.

The Bull Demon King absolutely could not tolerate this.

There were many reasons.

First, Sun Monkey's name was the Handsome Monkey King, which literally meant he was on the level of a handsome guy among demons, while the Bull Demon King was a sloppy ugly fellow.

Second, he was born with Flower Fruit Mountain, equivalent to owning a luxury villa, while the Bull Demon King could only be a live-in son-in-law.

Third, his strength was immense, even the Heavenly Court sent envoys to appease him, and now he even had connections with Spirit Mountain, yet these two bastards' factions didn't even glance at the Bull Demon King.

Now, he even had a luxurious mount, while the Bull Demon King could only ride the Water-Repelling Golden-Eyed Beast, a broken car comparable to an old Santana.

This string of inferiority fueled the Bull Demon King's sense of crisis.

What if Princess Iron Fan fell in love with Sun Monkey... wasn't that a possibility?

"Elder Brother, I, old Sun, am here today to offer congratulations."

"Naturally, a congratulatory gift must be sent to express sincerity."

"Younger brother bestows the Green-Maned Lion upon Elder Brother, wishing Elder Brother and Sister-in-law eternal harmony!"

Sun Kong was unfazed by the Bull Demon King's hostility.

Of course, he didn't know that the Bull Demon King's resentment stemmed from his inferiority complex.

However, this gesture of Sun Kong's, presenting a gift borrowed from another, exceeded the expectations of both the Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan.

The Green-Maned Lion was Manjushri's mount, and Sun Monkey was actually giving it away.

Such audacity!

"Younger Brother, this is not appropriate!"

The Bull Demon King suddenly changed his tune.

But he didn't directly refuse.

This showed that he was indeed very fond of the Green-Maned Lion.

After all, it was one of the Seven Attendants of the Grand Pure One.

Compared to the low intelligence of the Water-Repelling Golden-Eyed Beast, the difference was like a Lamborghini and a Santana; they weren't on the same level at all.

It would be false to say he wasn't envious!

"What's not appropriate!"

"We are sworn brothers."

"What I, old Sun, have is Elder Brother's."

"Elder Brother, just ride it with confidence. If anything happens, I, old Sun, will take responsibility and will never implicate Elder Brother!"

Sun Kong patted his chest and vowed with assurance.

His confidence reassured the Bull Demon King.

Yes!

The Green-Maned Lion was not an ordinary mount.

It had intelligence, and extremely high intelligence.

If it weren't for Manjushri's personal instruction, he would never have allowed Sun Kong to ride it.

"Then Elder Brother will respectfully accept!"

The Bull Demon King was overjoyed.

In his excitement, he leaped onto the Green-Maned Lion's back in a few strides.

Just as he was about to show off in his jubilation.

The smile on Sun Kong's face visibly vanished, replaced by an expression of furious rage.

"Halt!"

"Bull Demon King, how dare you!"

"Is Manjushri Bodhisattva's mount something you can ride?"

"Such rebellious behavior, I, old Sun, will now represent Spirit Mountain to apprehend and indict you!"
