Chapter 1127: Chapter 656

Moreover, after half an hour of traveling, they were still moving incredibly slowly, completely like they were out for a leisurely outing.

At this pace, who knows when they might finally reach the Western Heaven Great Leiyin Temple and complete this Westward Journey calamity!

Sun Wukong initially would still try to persuade Chen Sanzang, at least extending the travel time a little and moving a bit faster.

But this fellow was impenetrable to reasoning and even said that three meals a day must ensure quality and standards. Cultivation, of course, shouldn’t shortchange oneself. All that talk of immortals being above emotions is nonsense, isn’t longevity for the sake of better enjoyment?

After attempting to persuade him three times, the monkey also decided to slack off.

“Do as you please, Old Sun isn’t going to bother anymore. If the Western baldies have any guts, let them handle it themselves!”

For Sun Wukong, each day was mostly just running errands and preparing three meals a day; the rest of the time was quite free.

Amidst their dawdling, the man and the monkey didn’t know how much time had passed until they finally reached the Yingchou River.

The aura of the Dragon Clan made the little tiger, who was their mount, very uncomfortable, showing some reluctance to move forward upon arriving there.

Fortunately, Chen Sanzang emitted Buddha Power to soothe the little tiger, and it also somewhat returned to its usual self.

There was no helping it; the innate dignity pressure of purebred dragons was quite intense in suppressing the bloodline of common demons.

“Old Chen, do you want to eat dragon meat?”

The intense dragon aura was sensed by Sun Wukong even outside the Yingchou River.

Having spent so many days together, the monkey had figured out what kind of character Chen Sanzang was, so instead of thinking about subduing a dragon, he immediately considered how to completely bring out the flavor of dragon meat through cooking.

After all, Sun Wukong had also mingled in the Heavenly Palace back in the day, where he had eaten dishes like Dragon Liver and Phoenix Marrow numerous times.

He often visited Lord of Stove for free meals and drinks.

As the saying goes, dragon meat in the heavens, donkey meat on earth. Now that he’s finally encountered a dragon with pure bloodlines, how could he not feast on it to appease his stomach?

“Little Kongkong, stop messing around. The Dragon Clan is related to the big shots behind me, and there’s a chance this dragon was specially sent over to be my bodyguard.”

Rolling his eyes, Chen Sanzang had long learned some insider information from Old Xi.

Nowadays, even the Ancestral Dragon has pledged allegiance to the big shots behind Old Xi, and those pure dragon sons and grandsons are just there for them to command, aren’t they?

Obviously, Ao Lie, the Third Prince of the West Sea Dragon King, the Little White Dragon, was sent over as a high-level bodyguard.

In the original story, Ao Lie had it pretty rough, not only was he cheated on, but his own father also reported him, and he was sent to the Dragon Stripping Platform, then saved by the Goddess of Mercy, placed in the Yingchou River, waiting for the Jingren, Tang Sanzang.

Then, due to his gluttony, he ate Tang Sanzang’s white horse and thus was sawed off his dragon horns, stripped of dragon scales, turned into the White Dragon Horse, and ended up being ridden by a man.

Truly tragic!

The Little White Dragon in this life isn’t as pitiful as in the original work, but he still couldn’t avoid being cheated on, having his walls breached by the Nine-Headed Snake.

However, instead of being reported by his own father, some costs were incurred, and a trade of benefits was made, allowing Ao Lie to become part of the Westward Journey calamity.

Whether he becomes the White Horse for the Jingren or the disciple of the Jingren depends on his own fortune.

“A Dragon Clan member at the Golden Immortal Peak, but its aura is unstable with hidden internal injuries; if it’s meant as a bodyguard, it might fall a bit short.”

Sun Wukong pouted, showing a bit of disdain.

“So should we eat him and let Little Kongkong continue running errands every day?”

Chen Sanzang silently retorted.

“No need. Although its strength is a bit lacking and weak as a bodyguard, it fits perfectly for running errands and serving others as an attendant instead.”

Sun Wukong immediately revised his earlier decision.

He is the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, the Monkey King who once wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace; how could he do chores every day?

“Fussy! Let’s subdue this little dragon first, observe for a while, and if it’s okay, we can train him well. If not, we can use him as a reserve food supply, roasting him for a meal when we get lazy.”

Chen Sanzang smacked his lips. To be honest, he had never tasted pure dragon meat before and didn’t know how delicious it could be.

“Little Kongkong, how about having dragon meat hot pot today? Can you fetch some ingredients from the Four Seas? Anyway, you’re quite fast.”

“…Eating dragon meat hot pot in front of a pure dragon clan, Old Chen, your heart must be pitch black!”

Sun Wukong rolled his eyes, a rare tear appearing at the corner of his mouth. Without another word, he flipped and vanished.

He had been imprisoned for so many years and had been out and about for quite some time, just enough for Chen Sanzang to stir up his craving; he also wanted to catch a dragon for a feast.

“Amitabha, this Dragon Donor, after eavesdropping for so long, won’t you come out and meet us?”

As for Sun Wukong leaving, Chen Sanzang didn’t care at all. Instead, he got off the little tiger, found a shaded spot on a big rock, pulled out a recliner, and lay down on it, incidentally taking out a bunch of cooking utensils and seasonings.

Hiding in the water pool within Yingchou River, Little White Dragon Ao Lie’s dragon face was momentarily distorted, a sullen expression in his dragon eyes.

He had never seen Chen Sanzang’s appearance, but he could feel the immense Buddha Essence strength on him.

Obviously, this monk wasn’t a kind soul.

And the monkey who just flew away, Ao Lie certainly recognized, wasn’t it Sun Wukong, who was trapped under the Five Elements Mountain?

The renown of Great Sage Equalling Heaven Sun Wukong was quite loud for Ao Lie, especially since his father gave him special instructions when he was sent to Yingchou River.
