On the list, the most powerful person other than Madam Mu was Chusu. Moreover, this was a monster that cultivated the Yellow Springs art. It had formidable methods of escape, was incredibly secretive, and its techniques were ever-changing and unfathomable. It was extremely sinister and crafty, and though it had lost an arm to Xu Yourong in White Emperor City, it was still very difficult to kill.

It could be presumed that this monster was already hiding in this vast range of mountains. How could they find it?

”Perhaps I can guess where he is.”

The blind zither player from the Tang clan suddenly offered, ”If Your Holiness does not mind, this matter can be given to me.”

Everyone remembered that this blind zither had been the previous generation’s Grand Elder of the Longevity Sect and the monster called Chusu was a strand of the previous Longevity Sect Master’s soul.

Linghai Zhiwang turned to Chen Changsheng, clearly rather willing.

Chen Changsheng did not agree, because the blind zither player had suffered heavy injuries in that battle with the Angel which would be very difficult to recover from in a short time. And besides, he was still a Guardian of the Tang clan.

Xu Yourong understood his meaning and proposed, ”Have me do it.”

She was undoubtedly the best choice for killing Chusu, perhaps the only choice.

Her Daoist technique was a natural counter to the Yellow Springs art, and she could rely on her speed to destroy Chusu’s escape techniques.

Besides her, no one else present could catch up to Chusu, and even if they could, they were not guaranteed to kill it. Not even Chen Changsheng was very confident.

But Chen Changsheng still did not agree, and his reason obtained the approval of everyone present.

He would be returning to the capital soon. In that city was an even more important matter, and an even more troublesome problem.

At this time, Xu Yourong could not leave his side.

Linghai Zhiwang asked, ”Then what can we do? Put it aside for now?”

The camp once more fell silent, the mood oppressive.

”I’ll think of a way.”

Chen Changsheng glanced at Xu Yourong and walked out of the camp. Xu Yourong understood and followed him.

Linghai Zhiwang and the others were somewhat worried and looked to Tang Thirty-Six.

Tang Thirty-Six waved his hands, indicating that he would not be taking part in this matter.

”I’ll go and see.”

As the least senior of the archbishops, Hu Thirty-Two helplessly sighed and walked out of the camp.

Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong stopped under a pine tree growing along a cliff.

He knew that Hu Thirty-Two was behind him, but he did not order him to stop.

If he did not let the archbishops know what he intended, they would probably find it very hard to be at ease.

A cool breeze caused pine needles to rustle down from the tree.

A few yellowed needles fell on mottled yellow fur, seeming to melt into it and become almost indistinguishable.

It was a dog-like animal, its fur rather messy. It looked somewhat repulsive.

Its two hindlegs seemed to have been broken, and it looked rather pitiful as it dragged them along the ground.

When it looked at Chen Changsheng, a flash of excitement gleamed in its eyes. It used its forelegs to raise its body and quickly crawl up to Chen Changsheng, where it incessantly kissed his feet.

Xu Yourong tilted her head as she viewed this sight, finding it quite interesting.

Although this was not her first time seeing this sort of sight, she still felt like laughing every time she saw this monster act like a treacherous official.

Hu Thirty-Two was not at all interested. When he saw those tiny, evil eyes, he felt his body chill.

Suddenly, he recalled the origins of this monster and his expression instantly changed. He shakily asked, ”This is an Earth Monkey?”

Yes, this was that Earth Monkey that had lived in the Garden of Zhou for centuries.

It was also that monster described in the Daoist scriptures as the most sinister, most shameless, most crafty, and most bloodthirsty.

Even the Mountain-toppling Fiend and the Monster Bull, massive monsters ranked extremely high on the Ranking of Monsters, were not willing to offend the Earth Monkey. They would even listen to its orders in battle.

Upon confirming that this mangy yellow dog-like being was that horrifying monster of legend and recalling the gruesome stories surrounding it, Hu Thirty-Two felt even colder.
