Chapter 126: Not Advancing is to Retreat, Demonic Shadow Maddened
Mount Ji Lei, Cloud-Brushing Cave.
Contrary to the last time, the Eternal Fox King carefully and respectfully asked Sun Wukong to take the seat of honor.
Previously, to avoid any mishaps, he and his daughter had been taken by Sun Wukong to the Heavenly Court for temporary refuge, incidentally to vouch for Sun Wukong, but unexpectedly they were fortunate enough to witness the great demon-subduing battle and see Sun Wukong display his divine prowess and receive great awards from the Jade Emperor.
The North Arctic Heavenly Venerate, ah, such a high and honored position; for the lowly demons like them, to set eyes upon it, is to be blessed for three lifetimes.
The Demon King did not understand all of this; upon hearing the news, he complained that the old fox had never let him take the seat of honor.
The Eternal Fox King cursed: "You buffoon, if you’re capable, go to the Heavenly Court and become a Heavenly Venerate yourself, I’ll call you ’grandfather’ every day!"
The Demon King bulged his bovine eyes: "Heavenly Venerate?"
The Princess Jade Face couldn’t hold back and added, "Yes, yes, the Great Sage was indeed imposing this time!"
This little fox spirit, having been to the Heavenly Court once and witnessed so many grandiose events, was still excited as she spilled the beans, recounting Sun Wukong’s demon-subduing exploit at Beiming and the subsequent rewards given by the Jade Emperor.
After hearing it all, envy appeared irrepressibly on the Demon King’s face, and after staring at Sun Wukong for a long while, he finally exclaimed, "Younger brother has done a great deed indeed!"
