Chapter 664 - 663: This Is Where the Candle Dragon Dwells! What a Ruthless Emperor Haotian! [Part 1]
The raging fury of Zhunti and Jieyin swept across the entire Qingqiu World.
At this moment, Lin Heng did not dare to be careless any longer.
He sped along, traversing the Star Realm, from the Land of the Far West, racing toward the Southeast Territory.
Soon, two plateaus merely a million miles apart appeared in Lin Heng’s view.
"Next, I must ask that legendary Emperor Haotian to lend a hand."
Lin Heng squinted slightly, paused at the fork in the road, with stars whirling around him, and the Celestial Domain shining brilliantly.
Behind him was a sky filled with murderous intent, with stars extinguished along the way.
Lin Heng dared not delay, and asked the Six-Eared Macaque within the Little World in a deep voice, "Do you still remember where Sha Wujing’s previous voice source was?"
"Left, it should be to the left."
At this moment, the Six-Eared Macaque already understood Lin Heng’s intention, he was planning to bring the battle to where Emperor Haotian resided.
Although the Qingqiu Highland has nine peaks,
not everyone wants to make enemies with the two Saints of the West.
If the battle were to be rashly brought to others, it would be understandable if the other party had grudges with the two Saints. However, if they got involved for no reason, in anger, they might join the two Saints in besieging Lin Heng, the instigator.
But Emperor Haotian is different.
The collapse of the Ancient Celestial Court was closely related to the Buddha Country to begin with.
He deliberately had Sha Wujing give a hint, using Lin Heng to make Zhunti and Jieyin uneasy.
It is evident that Emperor Haotian and Zhunti, and Jieyin are not on friendly terms.
In such a case, Lin Heng, being used as a pawn, naturally had to counteruse Emperor Haotian.
This is called tit for tat!
Certainly, bringing the battle to where Emperor Haotian is will make him very angry, but Lin Heng believes that no matter how angry Emperor Haotian is, he will still reluctantly join forces with him!
After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
This saying is not wrong.
"Now, Emperor Haotian seems to have shot himself in the foot..."
The Red-bottomed Macaque couldn’t help but laugh, having understood Lin Heng’s strategy.
At this moment, Lin Heng, having obtained the location given by the Six-Eared Macaque, decisively took a step, arriving beneath the plateau in the Southeast Left Domain.
Far behind.
Seeing Lin Heng reaching the front of that plateau, Zhunti and Jieyin exchanged a look, a tinge of heaviness appearing deep within their eyes.
"Supreme Celestial Abyss..."
"What is he planning to do?"
"Does he want to enter where the mad dragon resides?"
Zhunti and Jieyin looked at each other, surprise and suspicion rising in their eyes.
Clearly, there were some concerns about that plateau.
There’s no help for it.
That’s the Supreme Celestial Abyss, the territory of the Candle Dragon.
The Candle Dragon holds a very special place in Qingqiu.
It is also the existence whose strength has been most fully restored.
Except for its eyes that can control day and night, which can’t be fully healed, it has basically returned to its peak of old.
At its peak, the Candle Dragon was truly a presence that could contend with a Saint.
Even Zhunti and Jieyin, still in their Saint forms, would not underestimate it.
Let alone now.
However, having been Saints once, they still bear the dignity and pride of Saints!
"What of the Candle Dragon, if it dares to obstruct us, we’ll fight!"
"After all, we have already been destined for imperfection; there’s nothing left to be concerned about!"
Jieyin, golden light flashing beneath his feet, charged forward.
Zhunti didn’t utter a single superfluous word, with only one thought in mind right now.
To kill that guy, whatever the cost!
"Venerable, why haven’t you gone in yet?"
"Those two guys are about to catch up..."
Inside the Little World, sensing the murderous intent coming like a torrent not far away, the Red-bottomed Macaque couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious.
However, for some reason, at the verge of the plateau, the Taixu Celestial Venerable hesitated and wouldn’t move forward.
"You wouldn’t be worried about offending that Emperor Haotian, would you?"
"We’ve come to this point, there’s nothing left to worry about..."
The Red-bottomed Macaque urged again, as the stars began to extinguish around them, the Golden Avenue spanning the Universe, with Zhunti and Jieyin already close at hand.
Yet Lin Heng’s expression was impossibly grave.
He stared intently at the plateau.
"Something’s not right... Something’s wrong..."
"What’s wrong?" Inside the Little World, everyone was anxious.
Lin Heng suddenly asked, "Six-Eared Macaque, did you deceive me? Are you sure Sha Wujing’s voice source is on this side?"
The Six-Eared Macaque was stunned, then flared up, "If I’m lying, may I die, damn it!"
It felt extremely aggrieved, and if it weren’t for the promise from the Red-bottomed Macaque to set it free after this event in Qingqiu,
It would not bother to eavesdrop on Qingqiu and provide hints to these people.
And now, having been sincere for once,
Yet still repeatedly mistrusted,
This made the Six-Eared Macaque feel truly stifled.
But in the next moment, it heard Lin Heng say, "Alright, I trust you didn’t lie to me, but Sha Wujing likely tricked you."
"Or rather, Emperor Haotian must have foreseen that I would bring the battle to his location, so he deliberately had Sha Wujing mislead me on the plateau’s location!"
With these words, Lin Heng turned without hesitation, rushing towards another plateau a million miles away.
Inside the Little World, everyone looked bewildered.
"Are you saying this plateau isn’t where Emperor Haotian is?"
"How do you know?"
The Six-Eared Macaque frowned, unable to resist asking.
Lin Heng didn’t explain much, only replied offhandedly, "Intuition."
"What?" The Six-Eared Macaque’s mouth twitched, while the Red-bottomed Macaque was taken aback upon hearing this, "You’re going with that too?"
With just an intuition, Lin Heng concluded that Emperor Haotian wasn’t on this plateau.
Such a hasty decision caused some to worry.
But Lin Heng remained resolute.
Because just now, as he was about to step onto the plateau, he vaguely sensed an aura inside, one that was terrifying, like a primordial behemoth.
But the critical point wasn’t that; rather, Lin Heng discovered it was an aura identical to that of the Candle Dragon’s Eye!!
"So, this plateau is actually where the Candle Dragon resides!"
"My, what a ruthless tactic from Emperor Haotian!"
Lin Heng’s eyes turned cold.
The other party not only wanted to utilize him to force Zhunti and Jieyin out, but also to lure Zhunti and Jieyin to where the Candle Dragon was.
Even though everything was aimed against the two Saints of the West,
Every step was also leading him into an abyss?
"It’s only polite to reciprocate."
"Emperor Haotian, I have exerted myself for you, and now, it’s your turn to do your part!"
A cold smile appeared at Lin Heng’s lips as the Purple Gold Dao unfolded like a blanket covering the skies, traversing a million miles in the blink of an eye.
"What is he... what is he intending to do?"
"Could it be, he discovered it?"
Inside the Earth Mother Qi Highland, Sha Wujing was feeling pleased that everything was unfolding as Emperor Haotian had predicted.
The person was just about to enter the Supreme Celestial Abyss.
But then, who would have thought, suddenly that guy changed direction, transforming into a stream of light, arriving before the Earth Mother Qi Highland in the blink of an eye.
This made Sha Wujing’s complexion change dramatically.
