Chapter 418 - 400: There is a Great Demon Behind Him_2
The two little demons didn’t dare to conceal the truth and hurriedly replied, "We know, we know! That is the ancestor of our Great King, known as the Nine Spirits Holy Yuan. He possesses immense divine skills and is extremely formidable! Below the ancestor, there are six more Great Kings, all sworn brothers of our own Great King, each with exceptional abilities."
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong said with a delighted face, "Brother has indeed made a divine calculation; there really are one big and six small, totaling seven lion spirits on Bamboo Joint Mountain. Together with this Yellow Lion Demon, that makes eight."
Sun Wukong nodded slightly, then said to the two little demons, "Do you know the way to Bamboo Joint Mountain?"
"We know! We know!" The two demons nodded and said eagerly.
Well-pleased, Sun Wukong nodded and said, "Since you know the way, then this Immortal will give you a chance to live. The two of you go now to Bamboo Joint Mountain and meet with the Nine-headed Lion."
"But what should we say to our ancestral grandfather when we see him?" the two little demons hurriedly asked.
After contemplating for a moment, Sun Wukong then said, "You only need to tell the Nine-headed Lion that the Yellow Lion Demon stole the weapons of the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, Marshal Tianpeng, and Great General Who Lifts the Curtain under cover of the night. As a result, we three stormed in. Your Great King was no match and, failing to defend, was captured. All the little demons in the cave were killed, with only the two of you escaping in the chaos of Tiger’s Mouth Cave. No need to say more, just report back like this."
"This...," the two little demons hesitated, showing reluctance.
"What’s this, what’s that? If you’re not willing to go, that’s fine. I’ll find someone else. After all, we’re only sparing one or two survivors," grumbled Zhu Bajie, who was already displeased, now speaking with a stern expression.
"Yes! We’re willing to go to Bamboo Joint Mountain to deliver the message. We’ll go right now," the two demons replied in haste.
At that moment, Sun Wukong lightly waved his hand, and a whirlwind immediately arose, carrying the two demons unsteadily to the ground.
