"But so what? I am a disciple of Buddhism. Even if I am defeated repeatedly, the Jade Emperor cannot remove me from my post. Even if I find another Emperor of the West, I cannot be idle."
Li Jing felt that there was nothing shameful about his repeated defeats.
He was just a small character and had never won any battles. He was able to become a god in the flesh and reach the position of the king of heaven. First, he was the disciple of Ran Deng Ancient Buddha, and he had a strong background. Second, he was influenced by his sons.
The eldest son, Jin Zha, is now serving the Tathagata Buddha in Lingshan Mountain, and he is a bright king in front of the Buddha.
The second son, Muzha, is now sitting under the seat of Guanyin Bodhisattva, one of the four great Bodhisattvas in front of the Buddha, and is a Hui An practitioner.
The third son Nezha... Although that boy is a rebellious son, he was treated obediently by Li Jing with the golden pagoda given by the Buddha of Ran Deng, and he did not dare to disobey him.
With the support of Ran Deng and his sons, Li Jing, who was used to losing battles, still felt quite good about himself.
Li Jing also looked down upon those mortal immortals who came to run for election, thinking that they were just wishful thinking.
"My cultivation is not enough, my strength is not strong, and I win by luck, so what if I become the Emperor of the West? Is it really possible to obtain the authority that matches the status? In the heaven, one looks at the strength, and the other is the background. These mortal immortals, Is there any reliable background?"
Li Jing despised the candidates until he heard an exclamation from the King of Growth, Mo Liqing, behind him: "Look, isn't that guy the Great Sage Pingtian, the Great Bull Demon King? Why is he here too?"
Li Jing was startled. He looked up and saw a burly and towering man carrying an iron rod and riding a water-evading golden-eyed beast through the sea of clouds in the sky and arrived in front of a jade platform.
After seeing the tall man, many candidates let out a suppressed cry. Those who didn't know the big man exclaimed in surprise after asking the people next to him, and their faces became extremely ugly.
The leader of the Seven Saints, the Great Saint Bull Demon King of Pingtian!
This powerful man who became famous after Sun Wukong caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace, actually came to run for the election! Suddenly, countless candidates felt that their futures had been shrouded in darkness by the huge shadow of the Bull Demon King.
The four heavenly kings discussed behind Li Jing's back:
"The Bull Demon King is the head of the seven great saints. He can be the eldest brother of Sun Wukong. His strength is probably not much worse than that of the monkey!"
"With the Bull Demon King running for election, I am afraid that the position of Emperor of the West will belong to him."
Li Jing frowned secretly when he heard this, and was about to scold him when he heard the King of the Kingdom of Dhrita, Moli Hai, say: "Although the Bull Demon King is famous, he may not be more powerful than Sun Wukong. Don't forget, he is famous only because of his influence. Because Sun Wukong caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace and shocked the three realms, the other six sages who worshiped him became famous. Compared with Sun Wukong, how could the Bull Demon King and other six sages have any impressive achievements? Isn’t it true that the Demon King and his ilk who have taken over the sky just have a false name and become the marshal of Zhongtan without any real power?”
After hearing this, Li Jing had a reserved smile on his face, stroking his long beard with his hand, and nodded slowly.
At this time, there was another exclamation from the crowd of candidates. Li Jing followed the sound and saw two monkeys coming hand in hand.
Of the two monkeys, one has green and black hair and is wearing heavy black armor. They have ferocious faces, well-muscled muscles, and burly bodies, no less than seven feet tall.
The other one has golden hair all over his body, wears gold chain mail, wears a pheasant feather on his head, walks on clouds, wears a bright red cloak, and is less than five feet tall.
After seeing the golden-haired monkey that was less than five feet tall, Li Jing and the four heavenly kings were shocked and exclaimed: "Sun Wukong! Why is he here?"
Li Jing even panicked and shouted: "Go quickly to invite Tathagata Buddha!"
Nezha said lazily from behind: "Look clearly, that monkey is not Sun Wukong, it just looks like Sun Wukong."
Li Jing and others took a closer look and realized that the monkey was indeed not Sun Wukong. Although its fur was almost exactly the same as Sun Wukong's, its face was softer, its eyes were bigger, and the bridge of its nose was more collapsed.
"That's the Great Sage of the Seven Saints, King Yu Tao. She's a female monkey." Nezha said with a smile: "That tall and strong monkey is the Seven Great Saints."
The Great Sage Macaque King of the Saints. Ha, they are all powerful among the seven saints. Now there is really something to watch. "
Because the meridians and acupoints of monkeys are almost exactly the same as those of humans, monkey spirits and monsters almost never change their form. Although it can change into a human form, the demon immortal transformed from a monkey basically maintains its original shape.
Li Jing mistakenly recognized King Yu Tao as Sun Wukong. He was so frightened just now that he almost smashed the golden pagoda out.
After getting Nezha's advice, I realized that I had made a joke. For a moment, I was filled with ridicule and embarrassment, and thought to myself, "This traitor didn't say it earlier, and he didn't say it until later. He waited until I called out to invite Tathagata Buddha, and then he said it. You obviously want to see my joke! Huh, sooner or later, I will find an opportunity to lock this traitor in the tower and teach him a lesson!"
In fact, not only Li Jing and the four heavenly kings mistakenly identified King Yumaru as Sun Wukong, but most of the immortals who came to participate in the election, as well as the onlookers of heavenly gods, soldiers and generals, also recognized King Yumaran as Sun Wukong. The scene was once confusion.
Fortunately, when Nezha explained it just now, his voice was not loud, but in fact it spread throughout the entire venue, allowing everyone to hear it, and the scene returned to normal.
But when most of the candidates heard that two more great saints had come, the last bit of luck in their hearts was gone. If it weren't for the fact that under the Emperor of the West, there were still several heavenly kings who could compete for the position, most of the candidates would have withdrawn voluntarily by now.
Nezha squinted his eyes as he watched the Tamarin King, the Macaque King and the Bull Demon King gather together to talk and laugh. He thought that with the help of his two brothers, the position of the Emperor of the West was probably already in the Bull Demon King's possession.
While he was thinking this, he suddenly saw a familiar figure passing through the sea of clouds below and arriving outside the Nantian Gate.
Seeing that familiar figure, Nezha's eyes suddenly lit up: "It's him! Hey, his breath..."
His body shook slightly, and there was an incredible look in his eyes: "He is actually three points more powerful than before!"
That figure was naturally Qin Ran.
He was wearing a blue scholar's shirt this time, and he didn't exude any aura. He looked like a mortal scholar.
When Nezha observed Qin Ran, Qin Ran also noticed her gaze. He looked sideways at Nezha, met his gaze, and nodded and smiled at him.
When Nezha noticed Qin Ran, Li Jing and the Four Heavenly Kings also noticed Qin Ran.
"It's that person. It is said that he was attracted to the sky by the Taibai Venus. Unexpectedly, he also coveted the position of the Emperor of the West." Li Jing naturally recognized this guy who had broken his golden pagoda. The four heavenly kings were even more unbearable. They were all Subconsciously, he took a step back, recalling the fear of being beaten violently by Kieran.
