From Fish To Dragon 16 Awakening Of The Great Sage

Shake* Shake*

The stone started moving and split into four petal-like parts and opened up like a blooming peony in spring. From within the peach, a ball-shaped stone much smaller in size floated upward and stopped 8 meters into the air

The ball-shaped stone slowly morphed into a different shape whilst and opened up forming the shape of a monkey. The monkeys sitting atop the trees started screaming loudly as they began to bow down whilst facing the stone monkey

Ooh* Ooh*

Ah*

The stone monkey's body started becoming golden whilst a crown formed on its forehead. As it stretched its body outward, a Buddhist symbol slowly rotated behind it. Opening its eyes to face the two boys, a flash of light appeared in one of its hands and formed the shape of a pole

Woosh*

A wooden pole, slightly over 1 meter in length and 4 centimeters in diameter appeared in the golden monkey's right hand as it cried

Ooh* Ooh*

Ah!* Ah!*

"This… Isn't this kinda exaggerated?" w.a.n.g Tao couldn't help but exclaim

"..." Ye Qin nodded as they continued watching

The golden monkey's body finally stretched out completely revealing a monkey the size of a human child. With a staff in hand, the golden monkey spoke: "Your King is back, with the Ruyi Jingu Bang in hand, the Heavens shall tremble and remember fear!"

All at once, the monkeys screamed in unison in response to their King's long-awaited return. The two boys spectating this scene looked at each other in the eyes and then looked back at the Monkey King whilst Ye Qin coughed

"The Monkey King? So J*urney to the West wasn't just a story?" Fatty Tao exclaimed

"That's what you're concerned about?." Ye Qin said as he realized the invisible force blocking the two from proceeding had been removed

Step* Step*

Taking some steps forward, the Monkey King looked down towards Ye Qin as it smiled. It then said, "All of you cheer for my master!"

Ooh* Ooh*

Ah!* Ah!*

All the monkeys once again cried in unison at the words of their King, the king himself who was still floating in the air whistled

Woosh*

Small clouds gathered up under its feet and slowly formed a big cloud, enough for it to sit on. The Monkey King then sat down on its cloud and flew towards Ye Qin standing before him

"Master put out your hand," it said

"..."

"Master?" Ye Qin asked

"Yea, you two were the ones who saved me however I've taken a liking to you so I will follow you from now on." the Monkey King said

Ye Qin then put his left hand forward and touched the Monkey King's forehead

Woosh*

A flash of golden light appeared on the Monkey King's forehead as well as Ye Qin's left hand and caused him some pain that felt similar to having something carved onto your hand by a knife

Taking his hand off, Ye Qin saw a Buddhist symbol scar on his left palm. "The contract has been established." The Monkey King said

"..."

Ooh* Ooh*

Ah* Ah*

Once the contract was established, Ye Qin felt something change inside his body similar to when he first came into contact with the meteor. This time, however, the feeling felt more familiar like a bond between the two of them from long ago giving him a strange melancholic feeling

"Nice boss!" w.a.n.g Tao said from behind as he stared at the giant white snake that was glaring at him the entire time

Ye Qin then checked the Monkey King again

"I see, I wonder how it compares to my other monsters…" Ye Qin thought as he stopped looking at the Monkey King's stats and faced the giant white snake

Hiss* Hiss*

The white snake nodded its head and spoke without moving its mouth "Please take care of my master." After saying this, the giant white snake closed its eyes as it dove its head back down beneath the ground below them

Ye Qin and w.a.n.g Tao turned around whilst the Monkey King followed from behind on its cloud. The Monkey King took another look at its subordinates before smiling as the trio left the cave
