Chapter 1347 Chapter 588: Ying Zheng Sees Through the Essence

At the moment Xuanzang resolved the issue with King Huang Feng.

Everything in the cave seemed to calm down.

It was also at this moment.

Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie hurriedly arrived, tracking the aura all the way here.

Just as they reached the cave entrance.

Sun Wukong, with his Eyes of Golden Flame, cautiously scanned the surroundings, holding the Jingu Bang tightly, ready for any sudden incidents. Zhu Bajie also raised his Nine-toothed Nail Rake.

Extremely alert.

After all, this demon being able to abduct the Qin Monk right under their noses was enough to prove its strength wasn't weak.

However.

"Master, how did you come out?"

Seeing Xuanzang walk out of the cave unscathed, both Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie widened their eyes in surprise, faces full of disbelief.

"It's already resolved."

Xuanzang smiled slightly, looking relaxed, as if he had just done something extraordinarily ordinary.

Moreover.

He was extremely gentle and calm, showing no trace of a battle on his body.

"Let's continue on our journey."

Saying that.

Xuanzang didn't offer much explanation, and he walked out of the cave with firm and composed steps, as if dealing with King Huang Feng was too trivial.

Upon seeing this, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie exchanged a glance, their eyes unable to conceal their surprise. Their eyes met as if exchanging the doubts in their hearts.

"The demon's aura has already dissipated."

Sun Wukong wrinkled his brow, speaking with a puzzled expression: "The strength of a Taiyin Golden Immortal is indeed not strong."

"But... but..."

"Shouldn't it also not be weak for Master?"

At this moment.

Sun Wukong really couldn't understand how King Huang Feng's strength could be resolved so easily. He scratched his head, his face filled with confusion.

"Could it be that Master also has cultivation?"

Zhu Bajie widened his mouth in surprise, keenly sensing something, which voiced the question in both of their hearts.

In their understanding, Xuanzang has always been an ordinary person with no power to bind a chicken, but everything that happened now forced them to reevaluate this understanding.

Their nominal master did not seem simple.

He truly might have cultivation!

"Big Brother."

"Do you think Master is hiding his cultivation?"

Zhu Bajie speculated. He leaned close to Sun Wukong, his face bearing a hint of curiosity and anticipation, as if hoping to get this confirmed answer from Sun Wukong.

After all, Sun Wukong is also from Qin, as is Xuanzang.

"Impossible."

Sun Wukong shook his head immediately and said: "Even a Quasi-Saint cannot hide from my Eyes of Golden Flame. Even if Master has cultivation, it should be seen through to the core."

Hearing this.

"Could there be some treasure hiding Master's cultivation?"

Zhu Bajie guessed again. He touched his chin, his eyes twinkling, though he had a pig's head, Zhu Bajie was genuinely not stupid, trying to explain the situation from various possible angles.

On hearing this explanation.

"It's possible."

Sun Wukong nodded, feeling this could be very likely.

But then after a second thought.

"Who cares."

"If Master indeed has cultivation, it's good; we won't need to be so cautious in the future."

Sun Wukong showed a relieved smile, as if something suddenly made sense to him.

"I initially thought Master had no cultivation, but now it seems, Master has hidden quite a lot. This way, the fun on this journey west becomes much greater."

"With the one we're protecting having some strength, those eyeing Master's flesh would likely be disappointed."

Sun Wukong gave a cold, expectant smile.

Just imagine.

If a demon abducted the Qin Monk but was instead resolved by the Qin Monk, that would certainly seem an unjust death, and thinking of this, Sun Wukong couldn't help but find it a bit amusing.

"The great calamity is coming."

The entire Nan Zhanbu Continent has been shrouded by Tribulation Qi, the deeper, the stronger the Tribulation Qi. As Scripture Seekers, we can avoid being eroded by it, but the living beings of Nan Zhanbu Continent are not that fortunate.

Zhu Bajie said with a sense of sigh at this moment.

He gazed into the distance, a trace of worry in his eyes, as if he saw the creatures struggling within the Tribulation Qi.

"This great calamity is truly difficult," Zhu Bajie sighed.

"What kind of nonsense scripture seeking is there now; it's all about spreading the law."

"Also."

"Who cares about any nonsense great calamity, look to the east."

Sun Wukong sneered, with a hint of deep meaning.

He raised the Jingu Bang in his hand pointing eastwards, his eyes flashing with a sharp brilliance.

Zhu Bajie turned his head, looking towards the east.

"What?"

Zhu Bajie questioned in confusion, it was empty into the night to the east, his eyes filled with doubt, not understanding what Sun Wukong was referring to.

"Do you not see that overwhelming Killing Intent?"

"At the moment this great calamity begins, Qin's westward offensive has also started. Perhaps within a hundred years, everything in Nan Zhanbu Continent will belong to Qin. As long as it is covered by the Nine Provinces Barrier, with the power of the barrier, the Tribulation Qi will not affect the lives protected under the barrier."

Sun Wukong said with a smile, being very clear about the power of Qin and its Nine Provinces Barrier.

Once Qin conquers Nan Zhanbu Continent, the so-called great calamity would be a joke.

"Brother Monkey."

"You have a pretty high status in Qin, don't you?" Zhu Bajie suddenly spoke. He looked at Sun Wukong, a few feelings of awe in his eyes.

"Status?" Sun Wukong thought for a moment, as if weighing the significance of these words.
