The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 530

Chapter 530: 530

"Wukong is a double-edged sword, strong but difficult to control," Tang Sanzang slowly said.

Why did that sound like something a person of high rank would say?

It seemed that the Tang Sanzang in Journey to the West wasn’t as weak as I had imagined, at least not when facing Sun Wukong, he held a superior attitude.

Just like love, if you start off in a low position, you’ll find it hard to raise your head afterward.

Sun Wukong was oppressed by the Tight-Binding Curse to the point he couldn’t lift his head, and over time, that made Tang Sanzang look down on him.

Ahem, this analogy seems a bit off, doesn’t it?

As Qin Jun was lost in his wild thoughts, Liu Ruolai couldn’t help but ask, "Who is Sun Wukong?"

"A hero from the childhood of Huaxia people," Qin Jun replied with a smile.

"What are Huaxia people?"

"A warlike people grown on various poisons and toxic gases. The strongest army among the Huaxia people is known as the ’Keyboard Army,’ using a magical tool called computers and mobile phones, they can spray enemies to death from thousands of miles away."

"Wow, that’s incredible!"

Apart from Liu Ruolai, the others from the God and Demon army were also curious about the so-called Huaxia people.

But Qin Jun didn’t go into detail, as speaking too much would give him away.

Once Tang Sanzang had returned, the atmosphere of the group became lively, Zhu Bajie and the others were very curious about what Tang Sanzang had experienced to advance his cultivation so quickly.

Qin Jun didn’t join the conversation and was instead hesitating about whether he should summon the God and Demon army. Up to now, he had accumulated two opportunities to summon the God and Demon army.

In the end, he held back, since their troop was advancing, it wasn’t suitable to bring an army.

So he opened the mythology shop and started browsing.

With the Heavenly Convention concluded, his fame had spread across dozens of realms; his fame value had skyrocketed.

Now with twenty-seven million fame points accumulated, he wasn’t interested in buying elixirs but wanted a cultivation method. The Undying Holy Body technique he had learned was incomplete, at most it would allow him to cultivate to the True Immortal Realm, and as a body-refining method, it didn’t significantly enhance his magical power.

He too wanted to reach a state of infinite strength and inexhaustible magical power!

After browsing for a long time, the cultivation methods Qin Jun wanted were too expensive, and the cheaper ones were not suitable, so he could only close the mythology shop in frustration.

It seems more effort is needed!

...

In the blink of an eye, two days quickly passed.

Qin Jun and his companions finally saw the outline of a Human Clan city, giving Qin Jun a feeling of seeing the light of day again.

Indeed, people are social creatures. It was hard to imagine how lonely Old Man Yi must have felt being imprisoned for thousands of years.

"Once we enter the city, you can leave," Qin Jun said to Liu Ruolai. No matter how he observed her, aside from finding it very difficult to dislike her, he couldn’t see through Liu Ruolai at all.

However, Ji Yongsheng had mentioned that even the system dared not analyze her rashly, which indicated that this woman was indeed not simple.

"I don’t know where to go," Liu Ruolai said, pouting her lips in grievance. Her eyes darted around, and then she laughed mischievously, "How about this, let me be your subordinate and follow you?"

"What can you do?" Qin Jun rolled his eyes and bluntly said, "You’re too weak!"

Liu Ruolai, annoyed, attempted to grab Qin Jun but was easily dodged.

Watching the two of them playfully teasing each other, everyone else just shook their heads and smiled, already accustomed to it.

Although Liu Ruolai was a bit of a drag, for the group, she added some liveliness, pairing with Zhu Bajie’s humor to prevent the journey from becoming dull.

"Following me, the most you could be is a maid!" Qin Jun said with a raised eyebrow and a smile. He enjoyed seeing Liu Ruolai frustrated, like a little tiger.

"Fine! It’s settled!" Liu Ruolai blurted out, agreeing immediately, not giving Qin Jun a chance to back out.

This instead made Qin Jun frustrated and he asked unhappily, "You haven’t fallen for me, have you?"

But to his surprise, Liu Ruolai’s face turned bright red instantly, and she murmured as quiet as a mosquito, "No! Don’t flatter yourself!"

Oh?

It really is!

Qin Jun stroked his chin, his expression teasing as he looked at Liu Ruolai.

Fairly speaking, Liu Ruolai was indeed very pretty, just a bit young-looking, so making her his Holy Empress wouldn’t be an embarrassment for him.

Soon, the team stopped in front of the city gates, prompting discussions among the passing cultivators, and even the city guards became wary.

"To arrive upon clouds, these people are no ordinary folk!"

"Why is there a pig demon among them?"

"A monk, a pig demon, and a little girl, what a strange combination!"

"That pig demon’s cultivation is not simple. At least fifth order, right?"

Qin Jun and his party ignored these criticisms and walked straight to the city gate.

Engraved across the top of the gate were four characters that read "Dongfang City."

A city guard gritted his teeth and stopped them, saying sternly, "Beasts above the fifth order are not allowed into the city."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Bajie immediately became angry, thinking, I was once a god, and even now I’m not a demon but an Envoy of Cleansing!

Qin Jun waved his hand to calm Zhu Bajie down.

"Gentlemen, please make an exception!"

Qin Jun said with a light chuckle. As he spoke, he waved his right hand and one thousand second-order spiritual stones appeared before the city gate, drawing a sharp intake of breath from the cultivators passing by.

So generous!

The city guard suddenly felt his throat go dry.

"Not enough?" Qin Jun asked with a smile in his eyes. Noticing the greed in the eyes of the other city guards, he waved his hand again and another thousand second-order spiritual stones appeared.

He had millions of second-order spiritual stones in both his storage ring and mythology space, so tossing out a few thousand was a trifle to him.

"Enough, enough!"

The city guard quickly shouted, then bent down to collect the second-order spiritual stones, and the rest swarmed up, creating somewhat of a chaotic scene.

With the other cultivators looking on in astonishment, Qin Jun and his group walked through the city gate with their heads held high and chests puffed out.

It’s no wonder so many people enjoy playing the rich tycoon.

This method of flaunting wealth to show off was indeed satisfying!

Qin Jun thought to himself, and just like that, the group entered the city without any obstacles.

"Your Majesty, that move was truly impressive," Zhu Bajie exclaimed, his eyes rolling around as he pondered how to coax some spiritual stones out of Qin Jun, so that he could then spend a few days at Yichun Courtyard or Drunken Red Pavilion.

Qin Jun gave him a glance. Seeing the smile on Zhu Bajie’s face, he knew exactly what the pig was thinking.

Tang Sanzang shook his head and smiled, saying, "Your Majesty, despite being a Holy Emperor, you still resort to such mundane tactics, truly wise yet appearing foolish."

If it had been someone else of Qin Jun’s status, they probably would have just forced their way into the city.

Qin Jun didn’t want to make a big fuss, not because he was afraid, but because he found it bothersome.

Forcing their way into the city would definitely delay them a great deal of time.

"I didn’t expect Dongfang City to be like this."

Liu Ruolai marveled at the bustling streets, capturing the attention of everyone in the group.

The buildings lining the streets were grand, with carriages and merchant convoys weaving through the crowd. Qin Jun noticed that the cultivation of most people was above the Foundation Establishment realm, and even those above the Golden Elixir Realm were a dime a dozen.

Dongfang City.

Could it be related to the Dongfang Family?

Qin Jun thought to himself, just about to ask Liu Ruolai, when suddenly, commotion rose from ahead.

"Make way! Make way for this Young Master!"

A young man in blue rode a horse with flaming hooves, rushing furiously forward. He knocked over several cultivators along the way, and right in front of him were none other than Qin Jun and his companions.
