Chapter 530: Chapter 520 Baldy and Rabbit, Trap!

Peng Demon King’s old face looked somewhat displeased, but the logic was indeed sound.

Since they were there to help, he couldn’t say much.

However, what Peng Demon King was more concerned about was the upcoming battle.

Even though he had called for reinforcements, his own brothers, the Little and Big Roc Demon Venerables, he still felt uneasy.

After all, he had witnessed Kong Ni’s strength firsthand, that steel-weakening, unshakable muscle, and the cold violence of his slap, which still made his cheek hurt just thinking about it.

Not to mention Kong Ni, let’s talk about Elder Zi, once that skinny old man made a move, Peng Demon King was utterly powerless under his Iron Fist.

Although the Little and Big Roc Demon Venerables were much stronger than him, he was still unsure whether they could take down the Chopping Wood Sect. The only thing he was sure of was that even if they couldn’t win, the three of them together could still escape without an issue.

What he was most worried about were some strange encounters when he went to invite reinforcements.

For example, when he went to invite his sworn brother, the Bull Demon King, he heard that he had just returned to his cave, but when he knocked on the door, there was no answer, no matter how much he tried…

He went to invite the monkey from Huaguo Mountain, who he heard had just returned from the East Sea, only to be told that he had gone to the Western Heaven…

Most importantly, all of these people left messages telling him not to provoke trouble, to just stay alive, and to cultivate more when he had time.

He also tried to find his big cousin, the Golden Winged Roc under the Tathagata of the Western Heaven, but still couldn’t meet him and received only a letter from a young monk, which also advised him to focus on cultivation, to retreat and cultivate, and not to run around aimlessly.

He vaguely felt that something was amiss, but he was not willing to be killed and turned into soup several times, and even less willing to be demanded by a Little Rabbit to serve as a mount, a watchdog, and an enforcer…

With a surge of resentment bubbling up, he went to find his two elder brothers to stand up for him.

After flying for a long time, his anger subsided quite a bit, and now, contemplating quietly, he felt that something was not quite right.

Just as Peng Demon King was contemplating whether to leave, the Roc Demon Venerable spoke up, “We’ve arrived!”

All three turned to look, and the towering mountain, shrouded in strands of demonic energy, appeared before them…

Peng Demon King looked again at this heart-wrenching place, fury surging to the skies. With the heat of his anger clouding his thoughts, he cast aside all his worries and stood atop the clouds, roaring out loud, “Kong Ni, Elder Zi, Rabbit, come out and meet your death!”

The terrifying bellow of Peng Demon King rolled across the skies, his killing intent surging…

This overwhelming killing intent instantly startled an old man with a white beard, who had been nodding off at the gate. He sprang up and looked up to see the demonic clouds churning and demonic energy billowing. Upon seeing this, Gold Star Taibai shouted out, “Who goes there? I am…”

“Scram!” Peng Demon King, filled with resentment and seeing that the old man was just a gatekeeper, immediately cursed and reached out with a big hand toward Gold Star Taibai below.

Gold Star Taibai had never seen such an impudent demon daring to attack an official of the Heavenly Court in broad daylight and was so scared that he immediately shut up, turned around, and ran for his life.

Fortunately for him, though he wasn’t much of a fighter, his speed in escaping was extremely fast, and Peng Demon King failed to catch him, which only fueled his anger.

Just then, the gate of Chopping Wood Sect opened, and Peng Demon King immediately looked over.

He saw a Rabbit with a book in one hand and a bowl in the other, wobbling out. Then, looking up at the sky, he shouted, “Onions, chives, garlic, ginger slices, Sichuan peppercorns and spices, chili powder… potatoes, cabbage, green beans, eggplant…”

Listening to this, the demons in the sky were all bewildered, looking at each other without understanding what the Rabbit was talking about.

The man with white hair was known as Little Peng Demon Venerable, the second eldest in his family.

He frowned and admonished, “Rabbit, what are you muttering about?”

The Rabbit looked at him and smiled, saying, “White Mao… this… you can’t stew mushrooms with it. It’s best to cut it into pieces first, then blanch it in cold water to remove the blood. Next, heat oil in a big pot, add rock sugar to fry until colored, coat the meat with sugar, then remove it from the pot.

Continue with the pot still hot, add green onions, garlic, ginger, and dried chilies to stir fry until fragrant. Then, add meat and potatoes. Now add a bottle of beer, a bowl of water, a couple of spoonfuls of dark soy sauce, and light soy sauce, cover it, and once it boils, switch to a low fire to simmer for half an hour…

Little chicken stew with potatoes, perfect!”

At first, Little Peng Demon Venerable didn’t understand what the Rabbit was muttering, but after hearing it all, he immediately got it. A rush of anger shot straight to his skull top!

Throughout the countless ages, he had roamed the Three Realms. Who wouldn’t show him respect?

Yet this Rabbit, the moment he laid eyes on him, began thinking of stewing him!

Who could tolerate that?

Little Peng Demon Venerable’s expression frosty, wasted no more words, and bellowed, “Die, you damned Rabbit!”

Little Peng Demon Venerable leaped out, like a bolt of white lightning, toward the Rabbit, reaching to grab his ears.

Simultaneously, a thunderous shout rang out, “Audacious!”

Then, an immense force struck head-on. Little Peng Demon Venerable’s heart quivered, he looked up sharply only to see a fist flying toward him.

He snorted coldly and countered with his own punch!

Boom!

A loud crash, the Bald man wielding the Iron Fist staggered back, but Little Peng Demon Venerable also retreated a step.

Surprised, he looked at the Bald man before him, then recalling Peng Demon King’s words, he suddenly had a guess. He snorted coldly, hands behind his back, and arrogantly said, “You must be Kong Ni, right? They say your prowess is exceptional. Now it seems, it’s just so-so!”

The Bald man was taken aback, then cracking a naive smile, he hooked the Rabbit with his foot, gently pulled the Rabbit behind him, and then spoke, “Kong Ni is our Big House Master. My name is Zi Zhuang.”

“What’s this name?” Little Peng Demon Venerable was stunned, frowning as he asked, “Zi Zhuang?”

He frantically searched his memory for the name Zi Zhuang but, alas, broke his head trying to recall any expert by that name from all over the world.

Little Peng Demon Venerable coldly snorted and said, “Never heard of it!”

Zi Zhuang chuckled naively and said, “I’ve only joined the sect for five hundred years, ranked seventy-first. I only do corner tasks that the senior brothers look down on, never achieved anything big, so of course you haven’t heard of me.

Your strength is about the same as mine, so you haven’t cultivated for many years, right?

You probably don’t have a famous name, right?

Oh, what’s your name?”

Yi Zheng tried hard not to burst out laughing when listening to this. He now understood what it meant for an honest person’s words to be the most annoying!

This was also one of the mental methods, the honest person’s mental method!

Using the simplest expression, the simplest language to say the most heart-piercing words.

Obviously, underneath Zi Zhuang’s seemingly honest appearance was not so honest intentions.

Indeed, upon hearing these words, Little Peng Demon Venerable was frozen in place, as Zi Zhuang had just said he’d been cultivating for five hundred years, which meant he could fight on par with him!

Zi Zhuang was ranked seventy-first in his sect, and all the tasks he did were the lousiest…

Didn’t that mean he was almost no different from trash?

Zi Zhuang said he was too weak to have done anything noteworthy, so he didn’t have a famous name.

So him, with similar strength to Zi Zhuang, did he have the cheek to mention his own name?

Little Peng Demon Venerable’s face turned beet red, and after struggling to speak for some time, he finally roared, “Enough with the nonsense, kill!”

Little Peng Demon Venerable, furious with embarrassment, charged at Zi Zhuang, who scratched his head and said, “I can’t beat you. I won’t fight,” and then Zi Zhuang picked up Yi Zheng and turned to escape.

Seeing his opponent acting so cowardly and recalling their equivalent status, the fire in Little Peng Demon Venerable’s heart surged uncontrollably, and he roared as he chased into the mountain gate.

Almost the instant he stepped through the gate, a thunderous noise boomed behind him!

Little Peng Demon Venerable turned around only to see a big stick smashing toward his face!

Bang!

Little Peng Demon Venerable was knocked off balance, seeing stars, and felt a draft behind his head. When he looked back again, all he saw was a pitch-black brick slamming into his face. In an instant, his vision went dark, and the world spun around him.

As he spun, he saw a dozen burly men rushing over, some carrying logs, some wielding iron pestles, some holding iron hammers, some with kitchen knives, some with stools, some with cutting boards…

At the same time, he also saw a person carrying a rabbit. That rabbit was holding a Bronze Mirror, smacking it towards him…

Little Peng Demon Venerable growled, “Get the hell away from me!”

As the demonic power surged within him, ready to burst forth, the dozen or so strong men around him exploded with even more terrifying power and momentum, instantly suppressing his demonic power. Then, he faced a brutal beating from all sides…

“Ah!”

“Save me… ”

“Ah…”

…

Outside, Peng Demon King saw Little Peng Demon Venerable rush into the mountain gate and had a vague bad premonition. He turned to Great Heaven Demon Venerable and said, “Old Second was too impulsive, I’m afraid he’s been tricked.”

Great Heaven Demon Venerable, however, disagreed, saying, “Didn’t you say that Kong Ni is only slightly stronger than you? Second brother’s strength is far more than just a few points stronger than yours. Any conspiracy and tricks are worthless before absolute power!

Just wait a moment. He’ll be out soon holding Kong Ni’s head.”

Hearing these words, Peng Demon King inwardly cried out. He had downplayed Kong Ni’s strength before for the sake of his pride and to impress his elder brothers, but he knew well that only Roc Demon Venerable might stand a chance against Kong Ni!

Little Peng Demon Venerable going in there likely meant he was in for a big loss.

Peng Demon King hesitated to speak, his face full of anxiousness.

Roc Demon Venerable was no fool. Seeing Peng Demon King’s expression, he immediately realized something was amiss. He abruptly stood up, grabbed Peng Demon King by the collar, and glared at him, “Are you hiding something?!”

Peng Demon King then sighed and explained the situation.

After listening, Roc Demon Venerable stamped his foot, anxiously saying, “Damn, we’ve been had! All troops, listen to my command, form the Kunpeng Formation, blast open this Mountain Protection Array of the mountain gate, save our people!”

“Yes, sir!”

The three hundred thousand Little Demons brought by Roc Demon Venerable responded in unison and immediately began to form the array. As the formation operated, the Heaven and Earth Origin Qi from tens of thousands of miles around was affected, wildly converging towards the formation. The Power of the Sun was also drawn in, and the world grew a shade darker.

Just as the Kunpeng Formation was ready and about to launch an attack, the gate of Chopping Wood Sect swung open with a clang. A rabbit then popped its head out and shouted, “Hey, big birdies in the sky, listen up. We’ve got your guy! Don’t try anything funny, or he’s going to have a bad time!”
