Previously, Hu Tu only targeted her personally. With her status and identity, she naturally wouldn't care about a small demoness. Even if that little demoness was related to that terrifying existence on the Flowerfruit Mountain, she was still an ant that could be killed with a flip of her palm.
However, Sun Wukong's previous words had completely scolded Buddha Huai Ti and Buddha. How could Guan Shiyin tolerate this?
"So what?" Hearing her words, Sun Wukong sneered and said with disdain, "What can you do to me, Old Sun?"
Guan Yin was momentarily at a loss for words. She really couldn't do anything to Sun Wukong. Putting aside Sun Wukong's own strength, Sun Wukong's identity alone was already troublesome enough.
"It seems that the so-called Southern Sea Observation World's Bodhisattva is nothing more than a sham," Sun Wukong continued to say as he saw this, "Saying that he will protect your sect's saint's face is just empty words."
"You-!" An angry expression appeared on Guanyin's face, and then she said in a low voice, "Fine, today I have an important matter to attend to, so I won't argue with you, ape!"
Finished speaking, Guan Yin looked at Lee Shimin, and said with an unkind expression: "Please gather the high monks in Chang'an City outside the great hall, I will personally choose Seeker of Scripture."
Anger appeared on Lee Shimin's face when he heard that, but he did not say anything. He said lightly, "Bodhisattva, please wait a moment."
With that, Lee Shimin turned to Faang Xuanling and said, "Honorable Goddess, please invite the esteemed monks."
"Hold on!" Just as Lee Shimin finished speaking, Sun Wukong suddenly spoke up and said with a smile, "I, Old Sun, also plan on personally choosing Seeker of Scripture. I would like to request King of Tang's help."
Hearing Sun Wukong's words, Lee Shimin subconsciously looked at Guan Yin. A hint of ridicule that was difficult to detect flashed across his eyes.
Guan Yin did not speak, as if she did not hear Sun Wukong's words.
"Great Sage, please wait a moment," Lee Shimin looked helplessly at Sun Wukong, then said to Faang Xuanling, "My beloved minister, please invite the high monks."
Sun Wukong nodded at Lee Shimin with a calm expression. On the other hand, Hu Tu, who was beside Sun Wukong, looked at Guan Shiyin and made a face.
"This humble subject accepts the order." Faang Xuanling bowed towards Lee Shimin and said with a stern expression.
After that, Faang Xuanling left the main hall. Not long after, Faang Xuanling appeared above the main hall again. He nodded at Wu Tie and said with a deep voice, "Your Majesty, all high monks have gathered outside of the hall."
"En," Lee Shimin nodded his head and then looked at Sun Wukong and Guan Shiyin. He smiled and said, "Great Sage, Guan Yin Bodhisattva, the two of you can choose Seeker of Scripture yourselves."
"Hehe, thank you so much King of Tang." Sun Wukong scratched his hand and cupped his hands towards Lee Shimin as he smiled.
With that, Sun Wukong directly brought Hu Tu out of the throne room.
"Thank you, King of Tang." Guan Yin nodded at Lee Shimin with a cold expression before similarly walking out of the throne room.
After Guan Yin and Sun Wukong left, a faint trace of ridicule appeared on Lee Shimin's face as he said to the entire imperial court.
"This humble subject accepts the order!" Hearing Lee Shimin's words, everyone in the imperial court bowed simultaneously and Lee Shimin walked out of the throne room, surrounded by all sorts of civil and military officials.
