Chapter 242 The Secret of the Demon God
The crowd was left speechless...
Lu Wu then pointed at Ying Zhao and said, "You see her? She is the number one gossip king of Kunlun Mountains. You have also seen her weapon, a hammer and a chisel, and they are not used for summoning thunder and lightning. These tools are mainly for carving stone tablets, engraving all the gossip seen by the Kaifeng beasts, and then distributed everywhere. Back then, we relied on selling gossip and had some economic strength in the primordial era."
Once again, the crowd was left speechless.
They thought they had encountered three serious Semi-Saints, but now it seemed that none of them were any good!
The Kaifeng beast was a peeping Tom, Lu Wu was a maniac for violence, and Ying Zhao was a gossip maniac!
When these three came together, Kunlun Mountains must have been very lively back then.
After recalling his former glory, Lu Wu sighed and said, "Unfortunately, later on, an old shameless figure who claimed to be the Eastern Prince came to Kunlun Mountains, demanding a piece of land.
As the original inhabitants, how could we possibly share a piece of land with him."
"And then?" The white dragon horse asked curiously.
The crowd was curious as well. The Eastern Prince, a legend, a terrifying power on par with the name of Queen Mother of the West. These three provoked the Eastern Prince? They were eager to know how they survived.
Lu Wu said, "And then what? With my temper, I was displeased right away and was ready to fight. But the Eastern Prince didn't care about me at all, no matter what powerful methods I used, I couldn't get close to him! Then that old shameless waved his hand, directly chopping off one-third of Kunlun Mountains and moved it aside for his own use.
That was Kunlun Mountains, the ancestor of all mountains!
He just waved his hand and chopped off one-third; we three were so scared that we didn't dare to show our faces for three years!"
The crowd was also shocked, Kunlun Mountains was not like any ordinary mountain.
Each stone on this mountain is as heavy as a small mountain itself, its density extraordinary. It is said that even Daluo Golden Immortals could only walk on it, finding it difficult to fly.

Only immortals from the Primordial Realm could barely muster clouds and mist, but they couldn't fly quickly either.
As for fighting, you could burn mountains and boil seas outside, but there you could only boil water for cooking.
It was an incredibly terrifying mountain range, but it is said that today's West Kunlun is not the Kunlun of the past.
The real Kunlun of the past was even more terrifying!
Yet, such a mountain range was casually chopped by someone!
Just thinking about that scene is awe-inspiring.
Tang Sanzang asked, "Oh... I see. The Eastern Prince chopped off a part of Kunlun Mountains and established East Kunlun, thus the Kunlun Mountains were divided into East and West Kunlun, right?"
Ying Zhao shook her head and said, "You could say that, but it's not entirely correct."
"How so?" Sun Wukong followed up.
Ying Zhao said with a frustrated face, "That Eastern Prince is an old good guy; he took the advantage and then went bragging about it. But soon after, a woman came along. She called herself the Ice Woman. Without even asking us, she just chopped off one-third of Kunlun Mountains with a wave of her hand and settled next to East Kunlun..."
Saying this, Ying Zhao was particularly aggrieved.
They were the original inhabitants of Kunlun, but the newcomers seized their houses without even asking, which was even more outrageous than forced demolition!
What's worse, they didn't even dare to get angry at them, and were even afraid that these newcomers might get angry with them.
That frustration, the crowd glanced at Tang Sanzang, empathizing with that feeling—Isn't this guy also overbearing and unreasonable?
It seems that the people from that era were all like that!
Kaiming Beast also sat down, and its nine heads drooped as it said, "That's not even the most depressing part. The worst part is, we thought that the remaining one-third was still ours. Then one day, suddenly, a little girl appeared."
"A little girl?" everyone asked, curious.
Kaiming Beast nodded, "She came dressed in Rainbow Mist Clothes, her beautiful appearance exuding a cute charm, her eyes pure and seemingly simple and fragile.
After she arrived, she immediately wanted to build a palace on the mountain.
We definitely disagreed, two-thirds of the mountain had been moved already, we had to defend what was left with our lives!
So we rushed out, wanting to bully this ignorant little girl."
"Then what happened?"
All nine heads of Kaiming Beast cried out tearfully, "Then...
Then the girl raised her hand, and the stars fell, forming a huge meteor suspended above our heads.
She said, 'Today, either let me establish my palace, or I'll set up a new grave for you!'"
Everyone was again speechless, what kind of things were these in the ancient desolate times? Completely unreasonable!
Ying Zhao choked up, "She spoke to us so amicably, and we, being understanding folks, naturally accepted her graciously."
Lu Wu said, "Who knew she would go even further, not only wanting to establish a palace but also demanding that the three of us serve her!"
"You didn't agree?" Zhu Ganglie asked.
Lu Wu glared, "Disagree? Would you dare?"
Zhu Ganglie was speechless...
Lu Wu said, "That little girl, um, accurately speaking, a little woman, she turned out to be the Western Queen Mother. Usually cute and naive but terrifyingly powerful when enraged. Luckily, she actually was kind, simple, without schemes, and forgave easily, maybe a bit greedy for comfort.
As long as we flattered her well, she never hesitated to reward us.
She didn't restrict our freedom much either...
Life was bearable, although we couldn't spend our days bullying small animals anymore."
At this point, Lu Wu's tone grew much softer, clearly, he bore no grudge against the Western Queen Mother; on the contrary, there was a sense of missing and fondness.
"What happened later? Why did the Western Queen Mother, Eastern Prince, and others disappear later? What exactly happened?" Sha Wujing asked.
Sun Wukong said, "It is said that there was a great war among gods back then, shattering the heavens and the earth, and eventually forming the current five continents. Is that really true?"
Lu Wu glanced at him and said, "Although everyone's temper was fierce, sticking to their paths and controlling their own principles, fighting a bit is normal. Tearing the heavens apart and disappearing collectively, is that likely? Just like the recent Conferred God Battle, branded as a heavenly and earthly calamity, but in the end, how many actually died? At most, they just transformed from immortals to gods."
Everyone nodded slightly, feeling it made sense.
Tang Sanzang couldn't hold back anymore: "Then where did they go? And who am I actually? What did I experience in the past? Why was I thrown into the river of time?"
Everyone looked at Lu Wu simultaneously.
Lu Wu then looked at Ying Zhao.
Ying Zhao sighed bitterly, "Where they went, we can't tell, because it involves a huge secret. Once revealed... the sky of this world might very well collapse. We swore an oath, to only reveal under specific conditions, otherwise, we would be struck by thunder and both our spirit and soul would be extinguished."
