Chapter 1045: Chapter 318: Challenge from the 10th Crown Prince of the Golden Crow_3
As soon as these words were spoken, the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow felt a chill run through his body, and he was somewhat in despair.
“Father, that Sun Wukong is incredibly difficult to kill; he is surrounded by experts, and I simply cannot find an opportunity to kill him,”
Emperor Jun glanced at him and said indifferently, “So, if it were a one-on-one fight, you have confidence to kill Sun Wukong then.”
Hearing Emperor Jun’s words, the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow was slightly stunned; he certainly had no confidence.
Faced with his father’s piercing gaze, the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow forced himself to speak.
“Father, naturally I’m not afraid of that Sun Wukong; I am the Son of the Heavenly Emperor, a dignified Sub-Paramount. Even if I am on par with Sun Wukong in combat, I have confidence to take him down; it’s just that he has too many strong people around him, and I can’t stand against those experts like clouds.”
The Tenth Son of the Golden Crow thought to himself, Emperor Jun surely understands this profoundly.
Just a moment ago, he too was beaten back by the Ancestral Dragon and Eastern King.
Hearing the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow’s words, Emperor Jun frowned. After thinking for a moment, he finally said, “I did overlook this. In that case, I will issue a challenge for you, a life-and-death battle, with no interference from anyone regardless of the outcome.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Xihe and the others looked at Emperor Jun in disbelief.
They had heard that the strength of Sun Wukong was formidable, and together with others, he had even killed a Supreme.
Such a ruthless person, even though the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow is a Sub-Paramount, how could he be his opponent?
It should be the case that he can’t possibly be a match for Sun Wukong.
Thinking of this, Xihe couldn’t help but say, “Husband, I know you care about Baize and love Baize, but how can you let Little Ten go to his death for Baize? We only have this one son.”
“He can’t defeat Sun Wukong?”
Emperor Jun’s eyes were somewhat cold.
The Tenth Son of the Golden Crow knew very well that if he could defeat Sun Wukong right now, it would definitely not be a good thing for him.
Emperor Jun would very likely force him to fight Sun Wukong.
Thinking of this, he quickly said, “Father, I am not Sun Wukong’s opponent; I really can’t beat him.”
At this time, he dared not boast.
He knew his father too well; if he dared to boast, the only outcome would be that he and Sun Wukong would fight.
The result would naturally be unfortunate for him, as the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow currently has no assurance of killing Sun Wukong.
Emperor Jun said indifferently, “I know you can’t defeat Sun Wukong.”
The Tenth Son of the Golden Crow was slightly stunned, then revealed a sorrowful smile.
Knowing full well that he was not Sun Wukong’s opponent, yet still being made to confront him.
His own father was essentially sending him to his death.
Thinking of this, he said solemnly, “I am not afraid to fight; please, Father, send out the challenge letter.”
Xihe and the others’ expressions changed; they immediately wanted to advise Emperor Jun.
Emperor Jun glanced at them, his eyes a bit displeased.
Instantly, they dared not speak anymore.
They genuinely revered this Monarch from the depths of their hearts.
“Do you think I want you dead?”
Emperor Jun asked.
The Tenth Son of the Golden Crow raised his head and asked Emperor Jun, “Isn’t that so? Does Father think Baize is more important than your son, wishing him to die as an apology? Naturally, I have no qualms.”
Hearing the words of the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow, Emperor Jun said indifferently, “I intend to enhance your power to the Supreme Level; will you have confidence then?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow suddenly raised his head, looking at his father with an incredulous expression.
To elevate his strength to the Supreme Level?
The Tenth Son of the Golden Crow even felt he must have misheard; otherwise, how could his father utter such words?
If he became a Supreme, then under one-on-one conditions, even if he had to pay some price, he would have confidence to kill Sun Wukong.
Seeing the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow’s excited face, Emperor Jun said indifferently, “Though I value Baize, I never thought Baize more important than my son. Even if Baize were to die, I just hope you can take some responsibility, and make some amends for the mistakes you’ve made. Naturally, I would not send you to your death. Sun Wukong’s strength is close to the Supreme; if you can’t become a Supreme, you undoubtedly cannot battle him and will surely die.”
“I truly am not his opponent.”
The Tenth Son of the Golden Crow said with a bitter smile.
He no longer claims to be able to defeat Sun Wukong because everyone knows he definitely cannot win.
Only if his father raises his strength to the Supreme ranks can he become Supreme.
“Let me ask you one more question. If given time, how long will you need to become Supreme?”
Emperor Jun asked indifferently.
The Tenth Son of the Golden Crow hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, saying, “It’s very difficult.”
He didn’t have any confidence in becoming Supreme at all.
He had been a Sub-Paramount for a long time, but still had no clues about becoming a Supreme.
Emperor Jun sighed and said indifferently, “Among my offspring, you actually have the poorest talent. Unfortunately, because you incited your nine brothers, they brought calamity to the Three Realms and died at the hands of Great Yi.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow looked up in disbelief.
How did his father know? He actually knew.
Moreover, after knowing, why didn’t his father kill him?
Seeing the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow’s confusion, Emperor Jun said indifferently, “Even if I killed you, what use would it be? Could it resurrect your nine brothers?”
The Tenth Son of the Golden Crow dared not speak.
“Forget it, today I will help you enter the Supreme ranks; I hope a few days later you can slay Sun Wukong, so as not to disgrace your brothers.”
