Chapter 82

readx;

Under the command of the school beauty, who exuded queenly grace, the students began to run towards the research institute. The teachers and the grade head followed behind, panting heavily. In fact, older people were more superstitious. Tang Sen said there was a monster here, and the students didn't believe it, but the teachers easily believed it and now hoped to run faster.

Tang Sen didn't turn back but called out to the school beauty, "Thank you!"

"No need..." The school beauty, once she turned to look at Tang Sen, immediately turned into a shy little girl, weakly saying, "You... be careful... don't let the monster hurt you." After saying that, she also ran towards the research institute with the other students.

Tang Sen stood by the river, his sword held horizontally, all his divine power gathered, and he watched the monster's shadow with great caution.

He couldn't afford to be careless. The monster's shadow used some kind of spell, making its figure waver and hard to see clearly. If Tang Sen relaxed even a little, he would lose track of the monster's location. The monster's mouth was mumbling something, but unfortunately, Tang Sen couldn't hear a word.

Tang Sen looked back at the students and saw that they had already run far away. With no more worries, he shouted, "Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, where are you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, two whirlwinds appeared beside him, and Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie appeared with grins on their faces.

"Did you see the monster's shadow?" Tang Sen pointed forward.

"Sure did." Sun Wukong laughed. "This monster is really interesting. It didn't use any spells, but it almost fooled me. When that girl flew up, I thought she jumped up herself. It wasn't until you drew your sword and swung it that I quickly used my Fire Eyes to finally see this guy."

Tang Sen was surprised. "She didn't use an invisibility spell?"

Sun Wukong nodded. "No, she didn't."

"Then why does she look so ethereal, almost invisible if you don't look closely?"

Sun Wukong laughed. "I don't know everything."

"Also, she keeps mumbling something, but I can't hear a word. Is she casting a spell?" Tang Sen asked.

Sun Wukong laughed. "She's not casting a spell. She's just repeating one sentence: 'Finally, someone can see me. Come and fight me to your heart's content.'"

"If she wants to fight, then let's fight." Zhu Bajie grunted. "I'll use my rake to dig nine bleeding holes in her, and we'll see if she still wants to fight."

Zhu Bajie dragged his rake forward. Before he reached the monster's shadow, the shadow suddenly knelt down, hands on the ground, and said in a standard disappointed pose, "I... lost..."

"What did you lose?" Tang Sen and Sun Wukong were very surprised.

"Breasts..."

Tang Sen and Sun Wukong covered their faces and shouted, "Damn, you're just a faint shadow. What's the point of caring about breasts?"

Zhu Bajie swung her rake at the monster's shadow. Actually, she didn't know where to hit, as the shadow's entire form was blurry, making it hard to see where its head was.

The monster's shadow took out a demon-subduing staff and blocked Zhu Bajie's rake with a "clang." The impact made both of their hands tingle, showing that the opponent was quite strong.

"Huh?" Zhu Bajie was very surprised. "This monster's demon power is so strong. It can block my rake, which even ordinary small monsters can't do." She became more excited and swung her rake with a whoosh, aiming for the head. The monster's shadow also raised its demon-subduing staff to block.

The two clashed with a loud noise, and after a dozen moves, they were evenly matched.

Tang Sen was a bit unhappy. "Hey, Wukong, you and Zhu Bajie both claim to be very powerful, right?"

"Of course!" Sun Wukong said proudly. "I am the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, who caused chaos in Heaven 500 years ago and became famous throughout the world. I am a very powerful monster. Zhu Bajie commands 80,000 water troops in Heaven, and her strength is also formidable."

Tang Sen pouted. "But you two are not very effective. Last time, you couldn't beat a yellow-haired weasel, and this time, you can't deal with a barely visible monster shadow. Since Zhu Bajie can't handle it, and her strength is about the same as yours, you can't handle it either. I seriously doubt whether your strength is just talk... To be honest, was the chaos in Heaven 500 years ago real? I increasingly feel that the chaos in Heaven 500 years ago was very deep, with some unspeakable secrets. Otherwise, with your strength, you couldn't have caused chaos in Heaven."

"How could that be fake? I swung a big stick... Ah ah ah..." Sun Wukong clutched his head and rolled on the ground. After a while, he jumped up, furious. "I'll deal with the monster." Sun Wukong took out the Ruyi Golden Cudgel from his ear, which grew to the size of a bowl when he waved it, and charged at the monster's shadow.

The monster's shadow had already fought Zhu Bajie for twenty to thirty moves without winning. When Sun Wukong suddenly arrived, he swung his cudgel at the shadow. The shadow raised its demon-subduing staff to block, and there was a loud "boom." Sand and stones flew, and the shadow was thrown back by the force. Knowing that a strong enemy had arrived, if Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie teamed up, she would be in trouble, so she quickly rolled into the Flowing Sand River and disappeared underwater.

"Damn, she ran away... This is troublesome." The three gathered by the river and looked into the water, but the Flowing Sand River was murky, and they couldn't see anything. With the river being 800 miles wide, finding the monster in the water was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Let it go. Since she has run away, there's no need to chase her." Tang Sen said. "Let's go back to the research institute."

The three returned to the research institute. Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie didn't want to appear in front of Tang Sen's classmates, so they turned into two phone charms: a big-mouthed monkey charm and a little pig charm, swinging happily on the phone.

The students were gathered at the entrance of the research institute, worriedly waiting for Tang Sen. When they saw him return safely, several girls rushed up and clung to his arms. "Are you okay? What about the monster?"

Tang Sen smiled and reassured them, saying he was fine, and it took some effort to calm the girls down.

At this moment, a young man dressed in expensive clothes, looking very wealthy, arrived with a group of armed soldiers, accompanied by the grade head. When they reached Tang Sen, the grade head quickly introduced him. "This is Mr. Wang, the general manager of Tang Dynasty Prince Technology Co., Ltd."

Tang Sen politely extended his hand. "Hello, Mr. Wang. I'm Tang Sen, a second-year student at Imperial University."

Mr. Wang shook Tang Sen's hand and said, "Tang Sen, did you fight the monster in the river just now? I received the news and quickly gathered soldiers to help you, but I didn't expect you to return safely. That's great news. Ah... This monster in the river has been causing us a lot of trouble lately. I didn't expect that Tang Sen could fight a monster. It seems you have magical powers. To have such skills at your young age, you have a bright future... It's not convenient to talk here. Let's go to the conference room and talk in detail."

Tang Sen followed him to the conference room, and the teachers and students, all very interested in the matter, followed behind.

Mr. Wang said as they walked, "You may not know, but our company has had a research institute by the Flowing Sand River for several years. The research was progressing smoothly. However, since a year ago, all kinds of strange things have been happening in the institute... First, things would suddenly fly up into the air, floating like kites for a long time before falling. Then, researchers would also fly into the air, saying they were pulled up by an invisible hand. Fortunately, they landed softly and didn't die, or the company would have gone bankrupt from compensation... Later, we used advanced electronic monitoring equipment and finally found out that a female monster was causing trouble here."
