Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#1564 - Gu Yang: Yes, I am blackmailing you.

Chu Hao didn't notice the abnormality behind him. He left the Floating Pagoda and returned to the Infernal Hell, feeling like he'd been away for ages.

The Shadow Demon, hidden in the darkness, also attached itself to Chu Hao's shadow, stepping out of the eighteenth level of Hell with him.

Chu Hao's mind was still echoing with the events that had just transpired. In a short time, less than a few hours, Chu Hao's young heart had suffered a great trauma.

Now, whenever Chu Hao closed his eyes, he saw the ground covered in earthenware jars and the eerie Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

Chu Hao walked along, reviewing the day's events in his mind.

At least, Chu Hao now knew the origin of the power of the soul, that it didn't come from the Three Realms and Six Paths. Even the Western Heavens needed to rely on the incredibly strange Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to produce it.

Also, those Six Paths Ksitigarbhas were all assembled, just processed by the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to make them a little more human-like.

No wonder those things became so bizarre once they transformed…

But, if the Western Heavens' power of the soul came from the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, where did the power of the soul within him come from?

Could it be that the Skeleton Monarch was something like the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?

Then what did he eat? Did he also grow a bunch of mouths with blood basins?

Wait, it's not just the Skeleton Monarch.

During the Lich War, where did Dijun's power of the soul come from? And the Witch Clan, perhaps they also had such beings?

Could it be that this Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva already existed in that era?

What the hell is this? Can't you just let me go back to the Journey to the West? I'm just an ordinary Law Enforcement Prison God!

My ambition is only to uphold justice and bring joy to all Buddhas. Who did I offend? Those disgusting things, please don't be related to me!

"Boss?! Boss, are you okay? Boss, don't scare me!"

Just as Chu Hao was thinking, he heard an urgent shout in his ear.

Chu Hao came back to his senses and found that he had unknowingly arrived at the first level of Hell.

The crowd from the Law Enforcement Hall was surrounding him, and Nezha was looking at Chu Hao anxiously, his expression full of worry.

Only then did Chu Hao realize that he had unknowingly walked out.

Chu Hao shook his head. "It's okay, I'm fine…"

Chu Hao added in his heart, "I just need some milky white Da Xuezi to soothe my young, wounded heart."

At this moment, Chu Hao heard the system's voice in his ear.

【Congratulations on completing the mission, completely destroying the defenses of the Infernal Hell, opening the gates of the eighteenth level of Hell, and returning in triumph】

【Reward: Two million merits, one hundred Nine Revolutions Great Luo Golden Pills, ten Saintly Pills, ten Quasi-Saint Pills】

Compared to the damage Chu Hao's heart had suffered, Chu Hao felt that this compensation was a little lacking.

Chu Hao smiled, but it was a bitter smile. "Don't ask, you're too young. I don't want to leave you with childhood trauma."

Of course, the main reason was that this matter was too outrageous and too bizarre, involving too many things, and the terrifying appearance of that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva would leave anyone with a shadow. It was better for fewer people to know.

"Let's go, let's go home. I'm tired," Chu Hao waved his hand.

However, the people in the Law Enforcement Hall stood still.

Nezha looked at Chu Hao embarrassedly. "Boss, we've actually been waiting for you to come back because the demons have blocked the way and are asking us to pay protection fees…"

Chu Hao was stunned for a moment.

Before he could react, he heard Gu Yang's voice echoing between heaven and earth, his arrogant and flamboyant voice like a great bell.

"Hahahaha! Chu Hao, you didn't expect this, did you! Now, my demon clan occupies the first level of Hell. This Hell will be our world!"

"Come on, if you have the ability, fight your way out. Let me see how your Law Enforcement Hall's strength can fight against my demon clan!"

Gu Yang's voice was still so loud and confident.

Chu Hao looked over and saw that the number and quality of the demon clan were more than double what they were before Chu Hao went in.

Chu Hao had secretly killed many demons when he was fighting side by side with the demons before, but he didn't expect the demon clan to still have so much powerful strength!

It seemed that the demon passage that was left behind had given the demon clan a constant source of troops.

On the other hand, Chu Hao had withdrawn most of the Law Enforcement Hall's forces, including Tang Sanzang and others, whom Chu Hao had asked to return to the Journey to the West first.

Now, those who remained were the backbone of the Law Enforcement Hall. Once the fighting started, it would be difficult for two fists to fight four hands, and the demon clan had already overwhelmed Chu Hao's side in terms of quantity and quality.

This time, the people in the Law Enforcement Hall were in danger.

"Boss, we'll protect you and break out!" Nezha held the Immortal Slaughtering Sword in his hand, his eyes full of determination.

The other high-level powerhouses of the Law Enforcement Hall also stood firmly beside Chu Hao, their faces full of determination and killing intent.

Obviously, they seemed to have anticipated this move by the demon clan.

However, Gu Yang laughed triumphantly:

"Chu Hao, don't worry, I don't want to fight you to the death. My goal is the Three Realms and Six Paths, the sea of stars!

I don't want to go to war with you yet. At least, you will definitely lose if we go to war now, but it's not worth it for me to win."

"What do you want?" Chu Hao raised an eyebrow, his face calm.

The corners of Gu Yang's mouth gradually rose, and there was a hint of playfulness in his expression.

"It's very simple. I want you to give me enough resources, to spit out everything you used to eat from my demon clan!!! And return the wages I was tricked into working for you, ten times over!!!"

Gu Yang's expression suddenly became ferocious and frantic, like a down-and-out aristocrat whose family fortune had been stolen, or like a fool who had been tricked into working and had his kidneys cut out.

Well, maybe it wasn't like that?

Chu Hao frowned, his face full of anger. "This is extortion!"

Gu Yang laughed loudly, tears streaming down his face.

"Hahahahaha! Chu Hao, you have this day too! You've been hunting eagles all day long, and today you've been pecked in the eye! That's right, I'm extorting you, I'm blackmailing you!"

"Do you think this is too much? Do you want to imagine how many excessive things you've done to me? Damn it, the heavens have eyes, and let me catch this opportunity!"

Gu Yang laughed with tears in his eyes. These tears were tears of joy, the emotion of finally getting revenge, the excitement of ten years of perseverance and finally washing away the shame!

The people in the Law Enforcement Hall were extremely aggrieved. No one had ever successfully extorted the Law Enforcement Hall. Were they going to lose today?

However, Chu Hao's face showed a bit of emotion.

"Forget it, forget it, if you do the first day of the lunar month, don't blame me for doing the fifteenth. Gu Yang, have you forgotten how you came to this Infernal Hell?"
