Chapter 595: Chapter 595: Sandy Monk Surrenders (First Update!)

Fine, I’m just worrying over nothing!

Sun Wukong rolled his eyes speechlessly, but Demon Master Kunpeng did make sense; this was the best method to save Fairy Chang’er, and it seemed to be the only method as well.

Jiang Liu’er’s cultivation of the Immeasurable Merit Determination had condensed a Merit Golden Body, which, like the Merit Saint Body that the Jade Emperor wanted to achieve, had an extremely strong capacity for the force of merit. And Fairy Chang’er, as the daughter of the Heavenly Emperor Di Jun, was naturally born with a Mysterious Yin Primordial body, which she had never given away.

In ancient times, Fairy Chang’er and the Great Witch Hou Yi fell in love. The two were together for a long time, but they did not take the final step, otherwise Hou Yi’s strength would not have remained merely at the Quasi-Saint-level Great Witch, but he would have become a true Heavenly Dao Saint surpassing the Twelve Ancestral Witches. The Mysterious Yin Primordial source had a great promoting effect on the one with whom it merged, and this was known to everyone.

Therefore, the Jade Emperor had been eyeing Fairy Chang’er, even going so far as to use the Fusion Divine Water to achieve his goal.

Compared with the Jade Emperor, Jiang Liu’er’s Merit Golden Body, cultivated from the Immeasurable Merit Determination, was much softer; if it were to combine with Fairy Chang’er, not only would her Mysterious Yin Primordial source greatly enhance his Merit Golden Body, but the force of merit contained within his golden body, the merit of ten generations of good people, would also take Fairy Chang’er’s strength to a higher level.

From this point of view, it was a mutually beneficial situation; there really seemed to be nothing worth fretting over!

Moreover, at that time, it would be Hou Yi’s soul controlling Jiang Liu’er’s body, so it didn’t really count as a loss.

With this thought, the slight apprehension in Sun Wukong’s heart disappeared. There was no time to delay; he hurriedly took Jiang Liu’er to the cemetery of gods and demons to condense Hou Yi’s soul. As for the Journey to the West to Seek Scriptures, it wasn’t a big deal if they delayed it a bit. With Jiang Liu’er’s increased strength, the chances of a successful scripture-seeking journey would also greatly improve; this was like the saying, sharpening your axe will not delay the work of chopping wood!

Immediately, Sun Wukong left Fairy Chang’er under the care of the Puti Patriarch and others, and he himself rose on a cloud and left Flower-Fruit Mountain, flying towards the way of the Journey to the West to Seek Scriptures.

Half a day later, by the Black Water River, Sun Wukong found Jiang Liu’er and his party. However, by that time they had already crossed the Black Water River, and just like in the past, it was Great Prince Ao Mo’ang of the Western Sea Dragon King who had helped Yuan Hong and the others to capture the little turtle dragon which had been causing troubles in the Black Water River. They were carried across the river by the river god. When Sun Wukong caught up with them, Jiang Liu’er was greeting Ao Mo’ang.

Upon seeing Sun Wukong, Ao Mo’ang’s face changed instantly, as he recalled the past when Sun Wukong maltreated him in the Northern Sea. Back then, Sun Wukong wasn’t the master of the Demon Cult, the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, and his cultivation was far from being as formidable as it was now. Seeing Sun Wukong again, Ao Mo’ang inevitably felt uneasy and his calves turned a bit weak; the monkey wouldn’t be causing trouble for him again, would he?

“Western Sea Great Prince, how come you’re trying to leave without even greeting me, Old Sun?”

Sun Wukong stopped Ao Mo’ang, with a playful look on his face. Ao Mo’ang knew he couldn’t escape and could only come forward to greet Sun Wukong, “Great Saint, it’s been a long time. The little dragon has been rude!”

“Indeed, it has been a long time, and your cultivation strength has improved quite a bit, Great Prince!”

Sun Wukong watched Ao Mo’ang with a smile. This Western Sea Great Prince had indeed come a long way compared to the past; his cultivation strength had reached the late stages of the Da Luo Golden Immortal realm, setting him apart among the Dragon Clan of the Four Seas, though of course, he couldn’t be compared to the Jiao Demon King, not to mention Ying Long Ying Tian and the Candle Dragon Ao Tian.

“I dare not boast in front of the Great Saint! The little dragon must rush back to report to my father, so I won’t stay any longer. Great Saint, you are welcome to visit the Western Sea when you have time!”

The Crown Prince Ao Mo’ang of the Western Sea looked at Sun Wukong’s smiling demeanor and felt an inexplicable chill in his heart. After a forced laugh, he attempted to leave. Just as he was about to ascend into the clouds, he heard Sun Wukong’s voice behind him, “Well said, in a few days I must indeed take a stroll to the Western Sea. I’ve been wanting to taste the delicacies there!”

Ao Mo’ang’s figure swayed, nearly tumbling out of the sky. He did not dare to respond and, like fleeing, led a group of naval soldiers straight back to the Western Sea.

Only then did Sun Wukong turn his gaze to Jiang Liu’er and his disciples. Yuan Hong stepped forward and bowed deeply to Sun Wukong, his expression somewhat puzzled, “Great Saint, why have you come? Is there another demon race blocking the way ahead?”

In the several years of traveling the Journey to the West, they had encountered many demons along the way. Yuan Hong was already clear that as long as the demon race did not intervene, they could overcome the tribulations on the path of seeking scriptures with their own strength, and Sun Wukong would not need to intervene, nor would he overstep lightly.

Since leaving the Wuzhuang Temple, they had not seen Sun Wukong again. His reappearance today must mean there was some urgent matter!

“No, no, I have already sealed the passage between the demonic realm and the Three Realms. It will not open again any time soon. I am here today to find Jiang Liu’er,” Sun Wukong explained, shifting his gaze to Jiang Liu’er, and then glanced at the curious Sandy Monk. He then sent an inquiring look toward Zhu Bajie.

Zhu Bajie had previously mentioned that he would take the opportunity to probe the Sandy Monk’s attitude. He wondered whether the simpleton had managed to find out anything.

“Great Saint, Sandy is also willing to join the Flower-Fruit Mountain. There’s no need to hide anything from him!”

Zhu Bajie chuckled, and there was no hint of surprise on the faces of Yuan Hong and Jiang Liu’er. Sun Wukong nodded in understanding; it seemed that they had already discussed the matter with the Sandy Monk. The four disciples and the dragon horse were truly united in heart, which saved him quite a bit of talking.

The Sandy Monk was a clever man, despite appearing somewhat dull and honest. His heart was clear like a mirror. At once, in front of Sun Wukong, he made a solemn oath of allegiance to Sun Wukong and joined the Flower-Fruit Mountain community, which made Sun Wukong inwardly nod in approval. Now, he had nothing to worry about.

With a wave of his hand, he set up a soundproof barrier and then told them the reason he was looking for Jiang Liu’er: to gather Hou Yi’s spirit in the God-Demon Graveyard and to neutralize the poison for Fairy Chang’er.

The others were fine, but Zhu Bajie jumped up at once, “Great Saint, as for the detoxification, why not let me do it? I, old Zhu, am willing—a hundred, a thousand times willing!”

“You may be willing, but Fairy Chang’er might not be!”

Sun Wukong glared at Zhu Bajie with irritation, “Have you forgotten what excuse the Jade Emperor used to banish you to the mortal world? It was because you were accused of harassing Fairy Chang’er! Besides, do you have a Merit Golden Body like your master? If you did, I’ll let you be the one to save her!”

Zhu Bajie scratched his head sheepishly, “Well, I indeed don’t have that. But Great Saint, doesn’t this also depend on whether our master is willing or not? Isn’t that right, master?”
