A Wise Man Knows When to Yield

He already knew that Sun Wukong was the successor of the Demon Emperor, and that before the Journey to the West, Sun Wukong was an ignorant and incompetent nobody. However, after that, due to some reasons, he rose to become a Demon Sage. But what Luo Hou did not expect was that after his success, Sun Wukong would commit such a foolish act, violating the Heavenly Dao Rules left by the Demon Emperor, and actually trying to kill Nezha!

This filled him with contempt and anger.

"Wukong, it's not too late for you to repent. As long as you're willing to give up killing Nezha, I can forgive and forget all the mistakes you made just now," Luo Hou advised Sun Wukong.

Hahahaha~~

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong threw his head back and burst into laughter. "Are you trying to negotiate with me Old Sun?"

Luo Hou's face darkened.

"No, this isn't a condition; it's merely stating the facts," said Luo Hou.

"Are you trying to sow discord between Old Sun, and Wukong?" Ao Changsheng glared at Luo Hou with displeasure and shouted coldly.

Luo Hou was taken aback.

"Are you trying to intimidate Old Sun?" Sun Wukong snorted coldly at Luo Hou again.

"Sun Wukong, I know you care about your friend Nezha, but you've brought this upon yourself, so you can't blame anyone else," Ao Changsheng said calmly. He was also a little annoyed. Although Sun Wukong was the successor of the Demon Emperor, this guy was just too disappointing. However, thinking about what he was about to do, he couldn't help but smile.

"Wukong, have you thought this through?" Zhunti asked Sun Wukong with concern.

After hearing Ao Changsheng's words, Sun Wukong took a deep breath. He understood some things and realized that he had gotten himself into trouble. If he really killed Nezha as Ao Changsheng said, then the Demon Emperor would definitely hold him accountable. At that time, he would definitely fall into the Demon Emperor's hands and be stripped of his title of Demon Sage.

Although there's a saying among the Demon Race that "a wise man submits to circumstances," Sun Wukong really didn't want to back down at this moment.

"Luo Han, let's retreat first, lest we both be unable to escape when the Demon Emperor arrives." Sun Wukong turned around and said to Zhunti and Luo Hou.

Upon hearing Sun Wukong's words, Zhunti and Luo Hou exchanged a glance. They also felt that what Sun Wukong said made sense, so they immediately retreated.

"Nezha, I, Old Sun, am giving you a chance to live. If you are willing to submit to me and repent, I can spare your life. Otherwise, today is your death day!" Ao Changsheng coldly glanced at Luo Hou warned him.

Ao Changsheng's words also greatly angered Luo Hou.

However, Luo Hou still braced himself and said, "Ao Changsheng, don't try to scare me. In this world, no Demon Race has ever been able to threaten me!"

"Hehe, there's really nothing in this world that I wouldn't dare to do," Ao Changsheng said proudly.

Upon hearing Ao Changsheng's words, Luo Hou felt a chill run down his spine.

"Why are you doing this?" Luo Hou couldn't help but ask Ao Changsheng. "Wukong and I are just practicing the same set of fist techniques that His Demon Emperor taught Sun Wukong. He is neither a traitor to the Demon Race nor His Demon Emperor's successor. Why are you so stubborn?"

Upon hearing Luo Hou's words, Ao Changsheng scoffed disdainfully. "Hmph, Luo Hou, I know you're afraid, but let me tell you, you can't escape today, unless you want to become like Wukong, like Nezha!"

Upon hearing Ao Changsheng's words, Luo Hou couldn't help but panic. Ao Changsheng's words reminded him of the Three-Legged Golden Crow Clan that the Demon Emperor had sent to the Human Race. If that were the case, wouldn't he also become one of those Three-Legged Golden Crow Clan?

"Sun Wukong, I think you'd better kneel down and apologize to Nezha quickly, otherwise, don't blame me for turning my back on you and attacking you!" Ao Changsheng sneered.

"Hmph, am I, Sun Wukong, the kind of person who cowardly fears death?" Sun Wukong snorted coldly and said to Ao Changsheng without hesitation.

A look of surprise flashed across Ao Changsheng's face. He hadn't expected Sun Wukong to be so disrespectful to him. A Demon King, he didn't even have the right to kneel before His Majesty the Demon Emperor?

"Since you want to die, then I'll grant your wish!" A cold glint flashed in Ao Changsheng's eyes as he waved his hand at Sun Wukong, and a terrifying pressure erupted from his body.

Sun Wukong felt the terrifying pressure emanating from Ao Changsheng, his entire body turning ice-cold, as if he had fallen into an ancient ice cellar. He knew Ao Changsheng was enraged and about to kill him. He inwardly cursed, and at that moment, he disregarded all pride, immediately kneeling down and kowtowing to Ao Changsheng: "Thank you so much, Brother Ao Changsheng, for your kindness! I will definitely cultivate diligently and repay your kindness in the future!"

Sun Wukong kowtowed as he spoke.

Seeing Sun Wukong's expression, Ao Changsheng's face revealed a triumphant smile, "That's my good brother!"

"Wukong, you don't need to do this." Seeing this, Luo Hou quickly stepped forward and helped Sun Wukong up.

"Luo Han, don't worry about me. I've thought it through. I've decided to convert to the Dragon Race," Sun Wukong said to Luo Hou.

Upon hearing Sun Wukong's words, both Luo Hou and Luo Han showed expressions of surprise.

"Monkey, you're not kidding, are you?" Luo Hou grabbed Sun Wukong's arm.

"Luo Han, do I look like I'm joking?" Sun Wukong asked Luo Hou in return.

Luo Hou carefully examined Sun Wukong's face. The more he looked, the more he felt that Sun Wukong seemed to have really made up his mind. His brows were full of determination, as if no one could change his decision.

"Luo Han, I have truly decided to join the Dragon Race." Sun Wukong said solemnly to Luo Hou, his eyes filled with a pleading look.

Seeing Sun Wukong's state, Luo Hou couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, well, I can't control you anymore."

Sun Wukong's choice was correct.

Although he joined the Dragon Race and thus became a member of the Dragon Race, he would forever remain the Demon King of Humanity.

This is something that can never be changed.

Luo Hou and Luo Hou exchanged a glance, then Luo Hou said to Ao Changsheng, "Congratulations, Brother Ao Changsheng, on subduing Wukong."

"Hehe, thank you both for your help!" Ao Changsheng couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this.

Just then, Ao Changsheng's gaze suddenly fell on Yang Jian, who was standing to the side.

"Yang Jian, why are you still standing there like an idiot?" Ao Changsheng asked Yang Jian.

"Brother Ao Changsheng, Wukong, I..." Yang Jian hesitated, unable to finish his sentence.

Seeing Yang Jian's expression, Ao Changsheng immediately sensed that Yang Jian was hiding something from him.
