Chapter 172: The Strict Teacher Disciplines His Disciple and Destroys the Peach Garden?
Princess Wansheng was an attendant to the Queen Mother of the West, a fact that made Sun Wukong feel both surprised and as if it made perfect sense.
In his original life, Princess Wansheng would later steal the Queen Mother’s nine-leaf spiritual ginseng to nourish the nine-headed insect that was stolen from the sacrifice nation’s Buddhist treasures.
If it weren’t for this connection, how could she, a mere dragon maiden, have the strength to steal treasures among the many powerful beings in the Heavenly Court?
What truly astonished Sun Wukong was that someone from the Wisdom forum had previously mentioned that Princess Wansheng and the nine-headed insect were the true pair, and that her supposed fated marriage to the young white dragon was naught but fiction.
Yet unexpectedly, Ao Lie had developed feelings for Princess Wansheng now.
"Hmm, is this a coincidence?" Sun Wukong was somewhat puzzled, as it seemed too precise, perfectly recreating this baseless story.
After pondering it for a moment, he had no clear conjecture, but as for how to handle this situation, he had a plan in mind.
Sun Wukong looked at Ao Lie kneeling before him and sternly said, "Do you think you did wrong by hiding your relationship with Princess Wansheng from me, your teacher? You are mistaken!"
Ao Lie was shocked, and as he lifted his head to see his master’s strict expression, his heart trembled, and he vaguely understood where he had truly erred.
Golden Cicada, standing to the side and watching with interest, had only heard of strict mentor-disciple interactions but had never experienced them, as the Buddha never reprimanded him.
