After Tang Sanzang and his disciples sent Kui Mulang's soul back to the Investiture of the Gods, they brought the princess to Baoxiang Kingdom, where they naturally received a warm welcome. There was no need to mention all the farewells and receptions along the way...
Otherwise, the Golden Immortals would be drowned again!
After leaving Baoxiang Kingdom, the group traveled for some time. One day, when they reached a mountain, a woodcutter suddenly blocked their path and said to Tang Sanzang and the others:
"Elders traveling west... listen to this old man! Up ahead, there is a band of Demons and monsters occupying the mountain as their stronghold... They specialize in eating people like you who are headed west!"
Tang Sanzang immediately reined in his horse upon hearing this.
"Hm?"
He then turned to Sun Wukong and said:
"Wukong, go ask this old gentleman carefully..."
Sun Wukong agreed with a smile and strode up the mountain. Before long, he reached the woodcutter and said cheerfully:
"Old man, are these demons old or young? How many years of cultivation do they have? Why don't you tell Old Sun clearly? Then I'll go capture them!"
The woodcutter immediately threw back his head and laughed.
"So it's a mad monk..."
Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes and replied with a half-smile:
"How am I a mad monk?"
Fear immediately appeared in the woodcutter's eyes, but he still forced himself to maintain his act and said to Sun Wukong:
"You don't even know what these demons are like, yet you dare say you'll capture them outright? Do you know that these demons have extraordinary origins? They even carry five powerful treasures with them..."
"Every one of them is incomparably formidable!"
At those words, Sun Wukong gave a light snort.
Wasn't it just Golden Horn and
