Chapter 660 - 659: Emperor Haotian’s Schemes—What Is the Candle Dragon Really Up To? [Second Update]

"Who?"

Upon hearing this name, Lin Heng’s eyelid twitched, revealing a look of astonishment.

Even Nezha, who had been silent since leaving the World Mirror, couldn’t help but furrow his brows and looked at the Six-Eared Macaque.

"Sha Wujing?"

The Red-bottomed Macaque muttered, "This name seems a bit familiar..."

He suddenly looked at Six-Ears as if uncertain and said, "Wait... could it be that most obscure Sha Monk from the Journey to the West Calamity era’s Scripture Seeker team?"

Six-Eared Macaque said, "Exactly."

"He’s in Qingqiu?" Lin Heng asked, his face filled with surprise.

The name Sha Wujing was almost forgotten by Lin Heng.

It was only upon Six-Ears mentioning it that he recalled the past events.

At that time, having just recently ascended, in search of those who had ascended from the world, he traveled to the Immortal Realm, all the way from the distant Southern Heaven Continent to the current Eastern Desolate Continent.

Back then, the Cyan and White Snake were trapped in a remote corner of the Eastern Desolate Continent, and in the river they had to cross to leave, Sha Monk, one of the Scripture Seekers, was hiding.

To recount.

When he killed the Venerable Yue Wu Gang, Lin Heng, unfamiliar with the mystical nature of Upper Realm Magical Treasures, almost fell prey to Wu Gang’s treachery.

It was Sha Wujing who spoke timely, allowing Lin Heng to realize.

And after that, Sha Wujing seemed to have left that river.

Later, with the establishment of the Destiny Dynasty, Lin Heng attempted to find him, but in vain.

Even Sun Wukong and Tianpeng seemed to have no particular feelings for that Junior Brother Sha.

Over time, Lin Heng also forgot about this most understated Scripture Seeker, Sha Monk.

And who would have thought.

At this time and place, Six-Ears suddenly brought up this name.

This truly left Lin Heng both surprised and uncertain.

"Are you sure you didn’t mishear?" The Red-bottomed Macaque asked. Although he didn’t have much impression of Sha Monk, it also proved that Sha Monk was nothing special.

He didn’t quite understand why the other party would appear in Qingqiu Land?

Six-Eared Macaque replied irritably, "I, who traveled with him on the Western Journey, regardless of my true or false identity, at least back then, he had to call me Senior Brother. Do you think I could mishear?"

"This..."

The Red-bottomed Macaque was speechless, scratching his head in confusion, "But how come? Wasn’t he just an ordinary Immortal? I remember during the Journey to the West Calamity, among the Scripture Seekers, he was the most unremarkable?"

Considering he unexpectedly appeared in Qingqiu would be enough, but according to Six-Ears, Sha Monk highlighted Zhunti Jieyin’s troubles, which greatly confused the Red-bottomed Macaque.

However, Six-Eared Macaque merely sneered, "You don’t really think that those who participated in the Western Journey events were just randomly put together, do you?"

The Red-bottomed Macaque was startled by his words, looking toward Six-Ears in astonishment and uncertainty.

Six-Ears didn’t keep them guessing, his expression serious, stating directly, "Don’t forget, that Sha Wujing was once Emperor Haotian’s Ju Lian!"

Those words made everyone frown, and after a brief pause, they suddenly realized.

"So... his presence in Qingqiu is related to Emperor Haotian?"

"Could it be that Emperor Haotian really exists on some plateau?"

The Red-bottomed Macaque was amazed. Though he had seen many transcendent figures throughout ancient history, excluding the past Saints, Emperor Haotian was undoubtedly one of the most enigmatic individuals he had encountered!

Indeed.

During the Journey to the West Calamity, Emperor Haotian ultimately fell at the hands of the Buddha Country.

Yet undeniably, the Celestial Court he established, when surveying the Primordial Chaos to this day, remains the force closest to unifying the Great Thousand!

In fact, from the moment he realized the North Sea Sea Eye was the entrance to Qingqiu, speculation arose as to whether Emperor Haotian’s arrangement in the North Sea might relate to his resurrection.

Now it seems everyone’s speculations are likely mostly correct.

Emperor Haotian, in all probability, exists within some highland!

"The collapse of the Celestial Court was all due to the Buddha Country."

"It seems that Emperor Haotian wants me to disrupt the future state of the Western Two Saints..."

Lin Heng grasped the insight.

The Red-bottomed Macaque caught on, squinting slightly and said, "That Sha Monk purposely warned Zhunti Jieyin not to dare leave the highland, allowing disturbance of the two."

"I estimate it’s to use you to force these two into a position where they must leave the highland."

"Or at least to prevent them from securely sealing themselves away."

"Taixu Celestial Venerable, what do you think? Will you act as Haotian’s knife?" The Red-bottomed Macaque asked.

Lin Heng did not rush to answer but instead asked Six-Ears, "Six-Eared Macaque, did you hear Sha Wujing give you the warning from somewhere?"

Six-Ears replied straightforwardly, "Orient, southeastern position, he’s still murmuring it to himself now."

"Southeastern position, huh?"

Lin Heng’s eyes narrowed slightly. When he first arrived in Qingqiu, he had sensed everything about this realm.

Although unable to pierce the fog and comprehend the highland interiors, he had already memorized the positions of the nine highlands by heart.

And indeed, in the southeast direction, there are highlands, with two of them!

"What, are you planning to look for Sha Monk?" Six-Eared Macaque asked curiously.

But Lin Heng only smiled mysteriously and said meaningfully, "Of course, I ought to meet him, but since the other party wants to use me as a blade, I should satisfy them a bit."

"Besides, I don’t particularly want Zhunti Jieyin to cultivate peacefully."

Lin Heng’s gaze returned to the highland before him, a playful and cold smile in his eyes.

At this moment.

The recently turned daytime within Qingqiu suddenly began to dim once more.

The speed was swift, almost within a blink of an eye, Qingqiu was again about to descend into a long night.

Clearly.

The arrival of daylight had displeased the Candle Dragon.

It once again exerted its power, intending to cast Qingqiu into night.

But Lin Heng only shook his head silently.

"If it stays at night, the two old turtles inside probably wouldn’t come out no matter what."

"So, apologies!"

Lin Heng’s mouth lifted, and with his eyes closed, the shift between day and night was all at his whim.

Whoosh!

Just as Qingqiu was about to experience its second night, it rapidly switched back to daylight!

"What on earth is happening?"

At this, the creatures of Qingqiu were utterly confused.

They had just entered a tense state due to the second nightfall, but as soon as their hearts began to race, within a flash, they calmed down again.

This left many experts who had just hidden away uncertain whether to remain in hiding or come out.

Even the beings within the various highlands revealed expressions of perplexity.

"What is this about?"

"Could that Candle Dragon have lost its mind?"

Su Daji of the Holy Race Highland had her beautiful eyes wide open, looking utterly baffled.

Meanwhile, Zhunti and Jieyin in the Bosatsu’s Sublime Light Highland couldn’t help but look at each other in confusion.

But before they could ponder why the Candle Dragon acted this way.

The Daoist junior had once again intruded.
