96: What is Wukong's final choice?

On the solitary lighthouse, the cold wind was biting.

A never-dispersing dark cloud hung over Sun Wukong's head, with flashes of lightning. His angry, diamond-like eyes were filled with helplessness and confusion.

His mind was blank. He didn't know what to do.

He couldn't bear to let go of his feelings for Ling Tianlei.

Nor could he bear to let go of the Sun Fire.

From above, the Priest watched this scene quietly, smiling from the bottom of his heart.

He had finally waited for this day...

Sun Wukong was no longer the lawless, wild monkey who could only be controlled by the Golden Casket Sutra.

His heart finally had emotions and bonds that could restrain him.

How would he choose?

The Priest smiled knowingly, somewhat expectant.

...

Inside the private room of the Tianlei Casino, all the noisy sounds vanished. The table was covered with overturned wine bottles, various types of alcohol mixed on the exquisite marble, and the air was filled with choking smoke.

There was a complete silence.

A complete mess.

Ling Tianlei leaned alone on the long sofa with red patterns, all traces of alcohol and intoxication gone, his eyes filled with confusion.

He wanted to be alone and quiet, not even letting Yu Anan stay by his side.

Could he, the master of this underground force, be foolish?

Just a few days after meeting Sun Wukong, he immediately sent people to investigate him.

Many places couldn't find anything about Sun Wukong, but the Cat Girl knew!

Naturally, he also learned from the Cat Girl that Sun Wukong would be one of those who would step onto the battlefield.

So during this time, he continuously deepened his relationship with him, and finally, at this current juncture, told him about Xiao Fan's intention to seize the Sun Fire.

He hoped Sun Wukong would give up the Sun Fire and help Xiao Fan!

But it was obvious that he had done something very foolish.

However, he truly didn't know what to do!

He didn't want Sun Wukong and Xiao Fan to be enemies; both were good brothers!

But who would be willing to give up the Sun Fire?

How much Lin Xianhuo needed the fire seed!!

And Sun Wukong? His original purpose for coming here was also for the Sun Fire!

Could he call Xiao Fan and ask him to give up?

Would a madman like Xiao Fan give up!?

His heart was also in great pain, because the most foolish thing was that he actually thought of using emotions to threaten his brother.

Sun Wukong was so pure and lonely.

I made him trust me, treat me as a brother, but in the end, it was all to use him?

How could I do such a thing?

How did I, Ling Tianlei, become such a person?

His face was filled with bitterness. Finally, he chose to pick up his phone and dial Xiao Fan's number.

“Sigh... Xiao Fan, I have something I really don't know what to do about.”

On the other end of the phone, Xiao Fan frowned. He heard the pain in Ling Tianlei's tone.

“Tell me!”

Finally, Ling Tianlei told Xiao Fan everything about Sun Wukong.

After listening, Xiao Fan snorted, “You should have told me about this earlier!”

“Alright, from now on, you continue to deepen your relationship with Sun Wukong as usual, just don't mention anything about the trials anymore.”

“I'll find a way!”

“Don't worry, I can handle it.”

After hanging up, Xiao Fan immediately called his Big Brother!

“In the middle of the night, what's wrong?” Chen Changsheng asked, yawning.

Xiao Fan chuckled sheepishly, “Big Brother, uh... I also want to Cultivate the Divine Ape Golden Body.”

“My wife should have finished comprehending it by now, right?”

After listening, Chen Changsheng's eyebrows raised slightly.

There must be a problem. He got it early but didn't Cultivate, and now suddenly he wants to?

Forget it, I won't bother him!

“Come find me tomorrow to get it!” Chen Changsheng said.

“Alright, Big Brother!” Xiao Fan grinned.

After hanging up, his smile instantly vanished, and he let out a long sigh...

The following days remained peaceful. Xiao Fan obtained the second to seventh forms of the Divine Ape Golden Body, with the first form already in his possession!

Ling Tianlei continued to invite Sun Wukong out to play, but Sun Wukong was somewhat reluctant to go.

These days, Sun Wukong had been cooping himself up at home, ignoring both Xuanzang and the Priest.

Because he was thinking about what to do?

The Sun Fire was very important, but his own talent Awakening relied more on the golden fillet on his head!

Should I give up the flame or not?

Ling Tianlei's friendship, to Sun Wukong, was like a child's small piggy bank, storing coins the child had accumulated day by day, sparkling in the sunlight.

His every sincere action dispersed the intense loneliness deep within Sun Wukong's heart. Perhaps Sun Wukong didn't realize this, but at least he discovered that life wasn't just about fighting.

...

Xi He really wanted to kill Xiao Fan, but she couldn't leave.

Before the Legacy began and before the Priest's message arrived, she dared not waste a single second.

Because her opponent was diligently Cultivating, day after day. Even one day of idleness, she feared, would affect whether the scales of the goddess of victory would tip.

Until this day, the message arrived.

“It's almost time, let's go!”

Apollo also received the information at the same time.

The Incarnations of two deities who had contended for countless years set off together at this moment, like two small suns, flying towards Tianlei City.

At the same time, other super Geniuses also received the news.

Filming is prohibited on the battlefield!

If you want to see, come directly to the scene!

Wang Qingtian had received the news long ago and also knew that Xiao Fan was in Tianlei City!

He was sure that Xiao Fan would go to seize the Legacy!

And he believed Xiao Fan could seize it!

What would he go for?

To watch Xiao Fan show off?

He might as well do an extra training session!

On the other side, Zhuge Tianming, Kong Fangxiang, and others also received the news.

They decided to witness how strong that super Genius, who was said to be a notch higher than themselves, truly was!

As a result, more of the older generation went!

The Demon War God set off. He also looked forward to seeing if his son-in-law would do something crazy?

Let his daughter receive the Legacy?

Oh, oh, oh... If my daughter could obtain the Legacy of Emperor Tianhong Wu, I'd probably wake up laughing in the middle of the night, damn it!

Lei Ling Spear God also set off with him. He was Ling Tianlei's father, Ling Qian Sha!

Ling Qian Sha, like the Demon War God, was a terrifying strong individual who made foreign races tremble.

He looked forward to seeing his son's transformation!

On this day, countless strong individuals across the entire Blue Star flew into the sky, gathering above Tianlei City, awaiting the opening of that Genius feast!

And on this day, Sun Wukong also seemed to have understood something and decided to accept Ling Tianlei's invitation.

Ling Tianlei quickly called Xiao Fan, asking him to come along!

It was no longer news that Shao Yan loved to drink, so she naturally followed along.

On the way, Xiao Fan was a little excited. That was Sun Wukong, after all. He wanted to see what he looked like!

Upon arriving at the Tianlei Casino, the group finally met!

Xiao Fan's eyebrows raised, and his gaze towards Sun Wukong was very intriguing.

Sun Wukong was a little confused, unable to understand why Ling Tianlei's good brother was looking at him like that. That gaze was a bit perverted.

The atmosphere was joyful. Ling Tianlei seemed to know nothing, laughing heartily as usual.

Until late at night, after several rounds of drinks, Sun Wukong's drinking frequency increased. He wanted to say something while under the influence of alcohol.

But at this moment, Xiao Fan leaned over and said faintly, “Let's go outside and talk.”

Sun Wukong's eyebrows raised slightly, and he nodded.

Ling Tianlei watched the two of them walk out the door, arm in arm, his eyes complex. He hoped Xiao Fan could truly help him solve the problem!

Outside the door.

The two stood side by side.

Sun Wukong said in a deep voice, “With only Saint-Grade talent, it's better not to get involved in this. You'll die.”

Xiao Fan smiled and said, “Let's not talk about that.”

“I'm here to apologize to you on behalf of Tianlei.”

“Apologize to me?” Sun Wukong frowned, saying, “What do you mean?”

“He, ah...” Xiao Fan let out a burp from the alcohol and leisurely said, “He's not being straightforward.”

“He knows your identity!”

“He knows everything about you!”

“He also knows you'll be on the battlefield!”

“You understand now, right?”

Sun Wukong's pupils suddenly contracted. So that's how it was?

He was played?

“He deliberately brought you up to me?” Sun Wukong's eyebrows furrowed tightly.

“He just hopes I give up the Sun Fire and then help you!?”

Sun Wukong's tone suddenly rose. He felt betrayed.

Xiao Fan quickly chuckled sheepishly, patting Sun Wukong's back, saying, “Brother Monkey! Calm down, Brother Monkey!”

“If there's something, we can talk about it slowly!”

“Asking you to give up the Sun Fire is indeed not straightforward.”

“But what if I give you these things?”

Xiao Fan then took out seven golden pages radiating golden light!

Xiao Fan's eyes were serious.

Emotionally, Sun Wukong was in a dilemma, which meant there was a chance!

But how could you, Ling Tianlei, do things like that?

Trying to gain something for nothing, wasn't that bullying an honest person?

So Xiao Fan took out the Divine Ape Golden Body, the strongest defensive Martial Arts on the entire Blue Star!!

As long as Sun Wukong was willing to stand on his side!

The Legacy, would be seized!!
