As Jiang Hui sized up the Stone Monkey, the latter quickly scurried up to the leg of Jiang Hui's trousers, rubbing his head in an ingratiating manner.
"You little rascal!"
Jiang Hui could not help but chuckle, bending over slightly to give the Stone Monkey's head a rub.
Surprisingly, it was a bit prickly.
"From today onwards, your name will be Monkey King, also known as The Great Sage Equal to Heaven!", declared Jiang Hui.
Regardless of how attractive, unconditional loyalty to him was of the utmost importance.
"Thank you, Master, for granting me a name!"
The Stone Monkey was ecstatic. His voice wasn't immature, just a bit piercing.
It had to be said, the Stone Monkey's intelligence was remarkable. Barely out of his stone, he was able to communicate skillfully with Jiang Hui, showing no sign of hesitation.
