Chapter 515: The Amazing Tree Demon

"Where is Yang Jian?"

Qin Jun patted Jin Chanzi's shoulder and asked with a smile. Although he was most concerned about Yang Jian, he couldn't show it, lest he hurt Jin Chanzi's feelings.

"Yang Jian? Damn! How did he come here?"

Zhu Bajie cursed. This guy had a strong learning ability and even learned Qin Jun's foul language.

In his previous life as the Heavenly Marshal Tian Peng, Yang Jian, the Erlang God, was someone he looked up to. He was a terrifying existence who could battle his Monkey Brother for three hundred rounds.

Li Ruolai listened with great curiosity. This handsome monk seemed very powerful, and she wondered about the cultivation of this so-called Yang Jian, which could make Zhu Bajie lose his composure.

"Yang Jian and I split up to search for His Majesty. I'll have him come over right away."

Jin Chanzi smiled and, as he spoke, waved his right hand, and a golden butterfly formed by magical power flew out at an extremely fast speed, disappearing into the sky in the blink of an eye.

Zhu Bajie approached and knelt down to kowtow to Jin Chanzi, excitedly saying, "Greetings, Master!"

Although he was afraid of Tang Seng, the emotional bond formed during their journey to the West had not faded. Moreover, Jin Chanzi's status in the Buddhist community was extraordinary.

The second disciple of the Tathagata!

Faced with Zhu Bajie's excitement, Jin Chanzi felt embarrassed and turned to Qin Jun, asking, "Who is this guy?"

He didn't have such an ugly disciple.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Bajie's expression was astonished. Upon closer inspection, he found that Jin Chanzi was different from the Tang Seng in his memory. Tang Seng was full of sorrow, while Jin Chanzi seemed carefree, lacking the aura of a holy monk.

"He is your disciple, so you should take him in. His cultivation is even higher than yours." Qin Jun smiled. As for the reasons behind this, he didn't explain. Zhu Bajie and Jin Chanzi would definitely be puzzled, even associating it with Qin Jun, which would only make Qin Jun's image in their minds more imposing.

Especially after they come into contact with the divine and demonic instances.

With this reminder, Zhu Bajie discovered Jin Chanzi's cultivation and was almost blinded. He muttered to himself, "My goodness, my master also has the cultivation of a Ninth Layer Taiyi Golden Immortal?"

Tang Seng had dragged his feet on the journey to the West. In his mind, a master and a strong person had never had any connection, like two parallel lines.

No, in terms of willpower, Tang Seng could be considered a strong person. At least, he was unwavering, willing to face various demons and monsters alone, even if it meant sacrificing himself without regret.

Jin Chanzi nodded as if he understood, and began chatting with Zhu Bajie.

Qin Jun eagerly awaited the arrival of Yang Jian.

At that time, he would lead Yang Jian, Zhu Bajie, and Jin Chanzi to confront the Night Emperor!

The peak Yang Jian was destined to display the demeanor of the Erlang God!

"Is this monk also under your command?" Li Ruolai asked curiously.

Qin Jun nodded, with a faint smile on his face, giving Li Ruolai a sense of profound mystery.

They even forgot that they were in the eerie deserted city.

Probably about the time it takes to burn an incense stick.

Jin Chanzi suddenly asked, "Why are you here in this city? Didn't you notice that something is wrong?"

As a Buddhist, he was most sensitive to evil.

Qin Jun raised an eyebrow and asked, "What's wrong here?"

Zhu Bajie and Li Ruolai also looked at him in surprise, only to see Jin Chanzi suddenly lying on the ground, pressing his ear to the ground, his expression becoming more serious.

Could there be something underground?

Zhu Bajie quickly followed suit, and Qin Jun extended his divine sense downward, only to be blocked by a mysterious force, causing his brow to furrow even more tightly.

Li Ruolai was nervous, grabbing Qin Jun's sleeve and asking, "Could there be something down there?"

Looking at the desolate streets around them, she felt increasingly terrified.

Could there be ghosts?

Qin Jun did not comfort her, but waited for Jin Chanzi and Zhu Bajie to stand up.

Zhu Bajie jumped up and exclaimed, "Oh my, it's too scary. There are corpses below, probably all the people in the entire city have died underground."

As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Jun's eyes widened, and Li Ruolai almost fainted from fright, her goosebumps rising.

This city was quite large, capable of accommodating at least a million people.

Doesn't that mean there are a million corpses hidden underground?

Even Qin Jun couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle at the thought.

Jin Chanzi slowly stood up and said, "There is a terrifying tree demon hidden below. It should still be in a deep sleep, and we are no match for it."

A terrifying tree demon?

Qin Jun couldn't help but recall the scene of being attacked by mysterious vines last night. However, that was definitely not the tree demon under his feet, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to leave alive.

"Ding! Triggering the side quest - Exterminate the Demon for Heaven's Sake! Quest details: The Demon King Luo Shu has been practicing for tens of thousands of years, slaughtering countless creatures, reaching a level of outrage from both humans and gods. If the host exterminates him, they will receive the blessings of the heavens and a chance to summon a divine being!"

Tens of thousands of years of practice...

Qin Jun's eyelids twitched uncontrollably. Heaven knows how powerful this tree demon is.

"Wait a little longer, wait for Yang Jian to arrive, then we'll get rid of this demon," Qin Jun said in a deep voice, causing Jin Chanzi to stare intently, Zhu Bajie to wail, and Liu Ruolai to look puzzled.

He continued, "This demon has slaughtered a million of our people. Even though I am not from the Eastern Flame Domain, I must uphold justice for the heavens!"

The reason why humans can become the spirit of all things is because most people have a conscience.

The reason why demons are not tolerated by the heavens is because most demons indiscriminately kill innocent beings, including their own kind, without any emotions.

Of course, this refers to the majority and cannot be generalized. There are bad people among humans, and there are good demons as well.

"Your Majesty is truly a living Bodhisattva, understanding the righteousness deeply," Jin Chanzi took a deep breath and bowed to Qin Jun.

In fact, Qin Jun was not solely motivated by the quest rewards. After all, the quest rewards were just a chance to summon a divine being and the unknown blessings of the heavens. It wasn't worth taking such a big risk.

But a million people, at the very least.

He couldn't ignore how many similar things this demon had done in the past.

"What righteousness? It's just following my heart, unable to tolerate it!" Qin Jun waved his hand, but his carefree attitude made people admire him even more.

Liu Ruolai looked at Qin Jun foolishly, and at that moment, she suddenly realized that Qin Jun was not as narrow-minded as she had imagined.

Zhu Bajie couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was most afraid of trouble, so Qin Jun's words didn't move him. He suddenly felt that his master's personality might have transferred to Qin Jun?

"As long as we don't cause too much commotion, we won't wake it up. Let's find a place to rest first!" Jin Chanzi scanned the surroundings and said.

Despite Zhu Bajie's initial-stage cultivation in the Taiyi Immortal Realm, this battle still relied on Yang Jian.

Qin Jun had no objections, but he glanced at Liu Ruolai and said, "Let's first search for a teleportation gate and send this girl away."

Jin Chanzi and Zhu Bajie nodded. Although they were curious about Liu Ruolai's identity, her cultivation at the Golden Core Realm was indeed conspicuous here.

"Can you not chase me away..." Liu Ruolai said with a grievance, as if she was about to cry at any moment.

The world is vast, where should she go?

If she returned to the Barbarian Willow City, her father would definitely not let her out again until he married her off to another family.

At her age, it was time for her to get married. The major forces in the nearby cities had already come to visit, forcing her to want to leave home.
