Chapter 463: Recruiting Powerful Team Members

Ziwei Dou Mansion, in a remote palace.

The palace was deserted and desolate, with dim stars in the sky and complete silence.

Wen Rui led the Guardians of the Galaxy here.

Princess Longji was originally the Star Lord of Dou Mansion, so she naturally knew this palace. While the group was landing in front of the palace, she whispered to Wen Rui, "Do you want to recruit 'that person' into the team?"

Wen Rui nodded, walked into the hall, and said loudly: "Brother Yuan, I haven't seen you for five hundred years. How are you?"

The hall was dark and gloomy, and no one answered. Wen Rui continued to go deeper. When he reached the deepest part, he saw a divine general eight feet tall, wearing old armor, sitting crookedly on a stone chair.

This divine general does not have human body. Like the "Monkey King" Sun Wukong, he has the body of an ape. However, his body is much thicker than the skinny Wukong, and his whole body is covered with white hair.

In stark contrast to the high-spirited Monkey King, General White Ape had a dull and slightly dejected look on his face, and did not move a muscle, as if he were in a trance. Everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him.

Sitting in the Star God Palace, waiting for the stars to move, enduring the endless years.

The person Wen Rui found was Yuan Hong, the Four Waste Star God.

This demon fairy who shined brightly in the Conferred God Battle is now in an extremely embarrassing situation. Even though he has extraordinary abilities that are not inferior to Erlang Shen Yang Jian, Demon-Subduing Heavenly King Wei Hu, and Tai Sui God Yang Ren, he was given a highly ironic idle position just because of his background as a casual demon fairy. He was classified as an evil spirit among the stars and thrown into the Dou Palace to be hidden forever.

The reason why he ended up like this was, on the one hand, that he stood on the wrong side, and on the other hand, like many unlucky monsters and immortals in Journey to the West, he had no one to protect him.

He was not an official disciple of the Jiejiao Sect. He joined the Shang Dynasty because he revealed King Zhou's call for talents. He did not even belong to the faction of Grand Tutor Wen Zhong, but was directly under the leadership of King Zhou.

This is exactly one wrong step that leads to all the wrong steps. Even if he recommended himself to Wen Zhong and joined Wen Zhong's army, he would not be treated like this on the Conferred God Platform. At least he could be given the important position of Thunder God General.

Seeing that the White Ape God General was like a stone sculpture, treating the people who broke into his Star God Palace as nothing, Wen Rui shook his head and walked forward slowly.

"Brother Yuan, I am Wen Rui. We met several times in the army five hundred years ago. Do you still remember me?"

The white ape seemed not to have heard it, and did not even raise its eyes, continuing to sit in silence.

"Five hundred years have passed. Many people have forgotten the glory of Brother Yuan in those days, but I can still remember it clearly. He fought against Nezha, fought against Yang Jian, killed Yang Ren, and single-handedly stopped Jiang Ziya..."

Wen Rui said slowly: "It's a pity that God is jealous of talents, bad luck, and his humble background and shallow foundation have buried his talents. The ambitious and high-spirited general in the past has now ended up in such a situation."

The white ape then reacted slightly, raising its eyelids and glancing at Wen Rui.

"I have set up a special operations team. I thought that Brother Yuan has been unemployed for a long time and must be eager to take action, so I specially came to invite him."

Wen Rui continued patiently, "Brother Yuan, are you interested? Why not learn more about it?"

The white ape raised his head and sneered, "Who was I thinking to disturb my peace? It was that little Grand Master who only talks big but has great ambitions but little talent! If your father invites me, I might have some ideas. As for you... it's just a child's play. Grandpa Yuan doesn't have time to deal with you!"

Wen Rui was so angry that he rolled his eyes. This guy had the same attitude towards him in the past. Among the huge Shang army, the only one who dared to speak nonsense to the young Grand Tutor Wen Rui was General Yuan, who was personally appointed by King Zhou.

Otherwise, why is Yuan Hong in such a miserable state now? He has no deep relationship with Jiejiao and is just a close descendant recruited by King Zhou, equivalent to Fei Zhong and You Hun. How can anything good happen to him when he is liquidated after the war?

The greater the ability and the more reactionary one is, the more severely he will be suppressed.

Wen Rui had wanted to win him over, but Yuan Hong didn't buy it. Even though they were both in the Yin Shang camp, they were not in the same faction. Moreover, judging from their ages, Wen Rui was only in his twenties or thirties, while Yuan Hong had practiced for thousands of years and had attained enlightenment for thousands of years. He looked at him like a newborn baby, so how could he look him in the eye?

They only regarded him as a dandy boy who relied on his father's power and never looked at him seriously.

Although their identities and status are very different now, Wen Ruifeng is the emperor, and he is just a star god, and even an evil star that ranks at the bottom among the star gods.

Such different situations probably only deepened the resentment hidden in his heart - talented people were frustrated, while the children of the powerful and wealthy were promoted too quickly.

"Brother Yuan, your temper is the same as before. I know the rules, but you are a demon fairy. If we don't fight and tell who is the male and who is the female, we really can't talk properly."

Wen Rui shrugged and said, "Times have changed. Back then, I was indeed a weak civil servant, but now I am ridiculously strong."

"Hahaha……"

General Bai Yuan covered his face and laughed: "I know that you have been deified for your merits, and even a damn emperor. When you first ascended to heaven a few years ago, didn't you come to Dou Mansion to show off?"

He suppressed his smile, and his murderous aura and pressure suddenly erupted, with a powerful fighting spirit sweeping past.

Even though Princess Longji had fought her way in and out of the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation seven times before, she couldn't help but feel alarmed and under great pressure.

She had not met Yuan Hong in the Battle of the Gods. Now that she saw him radiating dominance in person, she finally realized how ignorant and fearless she was back then.

Long Ji had never been defeated before she died at the hands of the Golden Spirit Holy Mother. That was because she had not met Yuan Hong, otherwise the other party would have just stood there for her to kill, and she would not have been able to kill him no matter what she did.

It should be noted that in order to capture Yuan Hong, Nuwa's map of mountains, rivers, and the state was used, and in order to kill him, the most powerful weapon in the Three Realms, the Immortal Flying Knife, was used.

The Green Bull Demon Li Si and the Golden and Silver Boys were also shocked. They did not expect that there was such a powerful person hidden among the stars in the Dou Mansion.

"Captain, why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken? The monkey has some skills, so let me do it for you."

The Green Bull Demon stepped forward and volunteered to fight.

Although the Green Bull Demon is also a demon fairy, he is very different from the wild demon fairies who believe that the strong are respected and that force is supreme.

To put it bluntly, after all, it is a high-class livestock...

It's a bit too human, as if he wants to take this opportunity to show his loyalty and fight for a position in the team.

When Qingniu took this step, the murderous aura that permeated the hall suddenly weakened and was suppressed by an incomparably powerful and majestic aura of righteousness.

The immortal pills he had consumed over the years were not in vain. The immortal power accumulated by the Green Bull Demon was as vast as the ocean, as deep as a prison, and his qi and blood were so abundant that he could already rival that of the ancient sacred beasts.

Yuan Hong was also stunned. The people brought in by Wen Rui, especially the Green Bull Demon and the Gold and Silver Boys, had been living under Laojun for a long time and had gradually learned the method of regulating their breathing by blending into the natural hidden aura.

If it didn't explode with immortal power, it would look ordinary at first glance and would hardly attract attention.

Before, Yuan Hong thought that the Green Bull Demon was just some villain and lackey who fawned on Wen Rui. But when the Green Bull Demon took a step forward and showed his aura, he realized that he was actually a strong man who was no less powerful than himself.
