Chapter 159: Chapter 158 Vincent Wolf Talks about Journey to the West

Translator: 549690339

“Journey to the West? What’s that?”

Avril had clearly never heard about it.

Vincent Wolf, on the other hand, finally breathed a sigh of relief. He thought to himself that since this world was clearly different from his past life, there shouldn’t be any problem with creating a Journey to the West narrative, right?

The fact was, Vincent didn’t have many lengthy, interesting, and non-childish stories in his head.

And Journey to the West happened to fit the bill perfectly.

More importantly, it was a plot that he could still remember.

“Journey to the West is a story about a monk and three disciples, plus one… horse who travel to the west to retrieve scriptures.”

Vincent knew how curious children can be. If he stopped at this point, Avril would most likely barrage him with a series of inquiries. So it’s better to keep talking and not give Avril an opportunity to interject.

“On top of that mountain, there was a fairy stone. The stone was thirty-six feet five inches high, and twenty-four feet in circumference…”

Vincent recounted slowly. He skipped part of the original tale this was based on. He left it out not only because he thought Avril might not understand it, but also because he simply hadn’t paid much attention to it himself. He had only really started paying attention from this point on.

“The monkey roamed the mountains, able to walk and jump about, grazed on flora, drank from brooks, picked mountain flowers, and sought fruits from the trees…”

As Vincent carried on narrating his tale, Avril moved from being remotely interested to being keenly absorbed in his storytelling.

“Henceforth, the Stone Monkey ascended to the throne, dropped the “Stone” part from his name and became known as the Handsome Monkey King.” Vincent stopped narrating after getting to this part of the story. “What happens next? Continue the story!”

Seeing Vincent stop, Avril wanted to start shaking him again.

“Stop, don’t shake me anymore. Let me rest a bit. I’m exhausted from all the storytelling. ”

Vincent hastily asked her to halt.

“Okay…”

Avril had no choice but relent, although somewhat reluctantly. Her pupils darted around as she quickly turned around and fled into the house.

Vincent was startled, thinking she was up to some mischief again. However, in no time, Avril returned, her hands filled with an assortment of snacks.

Avril held up a delicately made delicacy in front of Vincent appealingly.

“Look Vincent, this is Frozen Cake, given to me by my mother. It’s really tasty. And this, these are squid filaments from a Monarch-level Giant Squid. And this, this is seaweed from a Rank Five Spirit Medicine. And this, this is…”

Vincent looked on blankly, saliva nearly dripping from his mouth. “Tycoon! You’re a real tycoon!”

Vincent couldn’t help himself from reaching out, but Avril quickly withdrew all the snacks.

“Vincent, you can’t eat for free. You need to tell another story.” Avril said slyly.

“Fine, fine, fine. I’ll even tell a hundred if you want!” Vincent, of course, had no option but to agree.

Avril’s eyes sparkled with joy upon hearing this and she stacked all the snacks up in front of Vincent again.

Vincent wrapped a piece of the small squid filaments around his spherical body. Barely had he digested a portion, when energy started madly colliding from within the filaments.

“This energy is so intense!”

Vincent quickly stored and digested the energy within his body. It took him nearly ten minutes. Now, not only had his growth level significantly increased in the High-grade Transcendent stage, but also the level of proficiency of his talent skill – Devour – had significantly improved.

While Vincent was digesting, Avril merely watched him in silence. As soon as he was done, she hurriedly urged him to continue the story.

“Vincent, hurry up and continue the story!”

There was no argument, Vincent was obliged to continue the story. He delved back into his memories to recall the plot of Journey to the West from his past life.

Fortunately, the memories from his previous life did not fade over time after he crossed over to this world. In fact, due to the enhancement of his spiritual power, the memories of his past life had become clearer.

Of course, the things he hadn’t read before were still off-limits.

“Living carefree for several hundreds of years, the Handsome Monkey King one day, suddenly became sorrowful in the midst of a joyful banquet with the monkey group and burst into tears…”

Vincent continued narrating, while Avril continued to immerse herself in his stories.

As Vincent narrated, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten something.

As the plot of Journey to the West progressed, Vincent suddenly remembered.

There was a part about the East Sea Dragon Palace in Journey to the West!

The Monkey King later even raided the East Sea Dragon Palace and took away the Sea God’s Treasure, a pair of lotus root silk cloud-stepping shoes, a set of Lock Golden Armor and a Phoenix Wing Purple Gold Crown from the other dragon kings.

If the story gets to that part, wouldn’t he, Vincent, get in trouble?

Oh, the tragedy!

He forgot about this.

“It is: initially nameless in the vast void, he first became aware of his existence after breaking the vast emptiness. Do not yet know what he pursues in the future. Continue in the next chapter.”

Now he has to resort to leaving the story on a cliffhanger.

Avril was deeply engrossed in the story, but when Vincent abruptly stopped, she became instantly agitated, ready to punish Vincent with her tiny fists.

Before she could do anything, though, a massive sea snake suddenly descended from the outside, plummeting directly into the interior of the palace.

The sea snake was about half an arm-trunk in thickness and reached a length of seven to eight meters. Its streamlined shape was a feast for the eyes. Its full-bodied red colour made it extremely conspicuous in the ocean, like a burning flame tumbling in the water.

What was astounding was the sea snake’s body was adorned with peculiar patterns that gave it a glamorous charm like an artwork. The complex patterns, some taking forms of curves and others forming intricate textures, extended on the snake’s body like a mysterious painting, scaring and enchanting onlookers at the same time.

As soon as the giant sea snake landed, Vincent once again felt the terrifying aura he had felt when he made Avril cry earlier.

The aura made Vincent – experienced with Monarch-level Intimidation – feel an instinctual terror. It testified to the sea snake’s formidable strength, exceeding all creatures Vincent had ever met.

That included that big turtle he had encountered earlier.

Under the sea snake’s might, Vincent shivered uncontrollably, not knowing what had transpired.

Upon seeing the sea snake, Avril’s little clenched fists relaxed. She turned around, hugged the sea snake and affectionately called her Auntie Snake.

Auntie Snake rubbed Avril a bit, and to his surprise, Vincent even saw a smiling expression on the sea snake’s face.

But when facing Vincent, the sea snake showed nothing but indifference.

“Your story managed to captivate the little princess. It’s not bad. But why did you stop? Are you messing with the princess?”

Vincent understood what she meant immediately.

Still talking about messing with the princess…

Clearly, she just wants to continue listening to the story!

The sea snake was unabashedly using her niece as a pretext to get him to continue the story!

That’s really shameless. If you want to keep listening, just say so. With your strength, I wouldn’t dare not continue.

You have to bring the princess into this.

All Vincent could do was complain in his mind. But his face showed a look of terror:

“Princess, please understand. It’s not that I don’t want to continue. I simply lack the ability.”

“After all, literature is a divine gift, not something that ordinary beings like us can easily manipulate. Even this one chapter has exhausted all my energy. I can’t possibly continue!”

Auntie Snake and Avril observed Vincent’s sincerity. He didn’t seem to be lying, so they gave up.contemporary romance

Little did they know, Vincent was laughing inside.

“Hehe, you don’t know this, but I actually have a hundred chapters stored up!”
