As he spoke, Bajie led the horse while Wujing carried the luggage, and they headed inside.
Seeing that things were going badly, Wukong immediately flew forward, raised his staff, and swung it down.
With a single blow, he killed her.
Ye Chen shouted from behind, "Wukong, don't!" But before he could finish, Wukong had already charged in.
Ye Chen was left behind, sighing in dismay.
Tangsanzang watched in astonishment. Bajie and Wujing were just as stunned.
Ye Chen hurried after them and said, "Why are you in such a rush? It's not like we can't save her. Even if we put her in a pot to boil, it would take a while. What are you rushing for? Seriously."
Wukong said, "She was surely going to harm my master. How could I just stand by and do nothing?"
Ye Chen helplessly covered his face and fell silent.
Wukong was still feeling pleased with himself, but Tangsanzang was already furious.
He roared, "Sun Wukong, your demonic nature has flared up again. I can't control you anymore. Leave!"
"Why, Master? I was protecting you!"
"Protecting me? You killed two people. That's how you protected me?"
"When have you ever protected me? You wanted to kill me back then. I think you want me dead now, too. Go! With you here, I'll never be able to obtain the true scriptures."
"Master, I was confused for a moment back then. My heart has long been devoted to you. Why won't you believe me?"
"Enough! The bond between master and disciple is over. Go!" Tangsanzang said.
Ye Chen tugged at Wukong and said, "There's no explaining what happened today. Leave for now. Once your master has had time to think it over, he'll call you back."
Wukong was unwilling, but there was nothing he could do.
