Zhu Bajie jeered with a mocking expression, "Stop boasting! Three more methods? My foot! You braggart... Ow!"

"Boasting! Boasting, boast your big head." The Bull Demon King ruthlessly slapped Zhu Bajie across the head three times.

Zhu Bajie hurriedly offered an apology, "Sorry, sorry, Brother Niu! Brother Niu, old Zhu didn't mean any disrespect to you."

Seeing that the Bull Demon King was no longer angry, Zhu Bajie put on a practiced ingratiating expression and sneered at Long Teng, "You said you have three methods to break the deadlock? Let's hear them!"

In truth,

Zhu Bajie did this on purpose, intentionally trying to pry information out of Long Teng. One had to know that Zhu Bajie's past life was Marshal Tianpeng, an expert at passing the buck and slacking off, and he was exceptionally clever.

Sun Wukong rolled his eyes and caught on to Zhu Bajie's intentions as well. They had not spent a short amount of time together, so he naturally knew Zhu Bajie's nature.

Wang Ming was also very clear that Zhu Bajie looked foolish while actually being craftier than a fox. However, playing this trick in front of Wang Ming was bound to fail; his very first sentence had been seen right through by Wang Ming, yet the avatar Long Teng still smiled indifferently and said, "If anyone else asked, I certainly wouldn't tell, but since Marshal Tianpeng is asking, I will tell you!"

As soon as these words were spoken,

all the immortals and deities present felt very strange, wondering when Zhu Bajie had gained such high standing.

Just as the avatar Long Teng was about to speak,

Queen Mother let out a cold snort instead and said, "Since you have a way, why aren't you going to help already?"
