Fang Yu was enjoying himself with women on both sides when suddenly the image of Tang Sanzang's bitter and resentful face flashed before his eyes.

He abruptly pushed away the two women in his arms and slammed his wine glass on the table with a loud "bang".

"What a disappointment!"

Before the two women could react, Fang Yu had already vanished from the spot in a flash.

The carved wooden windows rattled loudly in the strong wind, and the red candle flames swayed violently.

"Wow!" exclaimed the woman in green, "Is he really a deity?"

Before he finished speaking, Fang Yu reappeared in the center of the room with a "bang," holding a bald monk in his right hand.

Tang Sanzang's eyes were tightly closed, and the collar of his cassock was torn open, revealing his large belly.

"This..." The woman in red covered her mouth and chuckled, "Is the Immortal going to give the sisters an extra meal?"

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

The three slaps came so fast that they were delivered in one crisp sound.

Fang Yu's eyes blazed crimson, and the Tomoe of his Rinne Sharingan spun wildly. "Eating people? Are you tired of living?!"

The two women were beaten and rolled on the ground, their faces quickly swelling up with purplish-red handprints.

The woman in green knelt and kowtowed repeatedly. "Immortal, please see the truth! This lowly demon has cultivated for three hundred years and has never even killed a chicken!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" The woman in red quickly kowtowed as well, "We grew up drinking dew!"

Fang Yu tilted his head and stared at their wet skirts, then suddenly grinned. "No wonder, they're so moist."

Outside the window, Sun Wukong, who had transformed into a mosquito, almost fell off the window frame.

The moth that Zhu Bajie transformed into frantically flapped its wings. "Brother Monkey! This is just too much!"

"Shut up, you idiot!"

Monkey King gently blew into Tang Sanzang's nostrils, saying, "I'd like to see what you're planning to do."

Achoo!

Tang Sanzang suddenly opened his eyes and was met with a room full of disheveled demons.

He jumped up with a loud "whoosh," his head hitting the softness of the woman next to him.

Tang Sanzang hurriedly wrapped his robe tighter, his face as red as a boiled shrimp. "This humble monk has been impolite!"

Fang Yu hooked his arm around his shoulder and pressed him down onto the embroidered couch. "What's the panic? These are all bodhisattvas who are helping you."

"So that's how it is!" Tang Sanzang suddenly sat up straight, put his palms together in a gesture of respect to the demons, and said, "I'm sorry to have bothered you bodhisattvas."

"See that?" Sun Wukong, disguised as a mosquito, said smugly. "That bald monk is the best."

Before it could finish speaking, Tang Sanzang picked up a grape and put it in his mouth.

As Tang Sanzang chewed on grapes, he said, "Supporting business is helping them. Even if those suffering people are just sitting here, if they can earn money and live a better life, that is a blessing."

"Isn't this also a form of spiritual practice?"

A splash came from outside the window; Zhu Bajie had fallen into the lotus pot.

Fang Yu laughed loudly, "Perfect!"

The pig and monkey were frozen on the windowsill.

Despair filled Zhu Bajie's moth-like compound eyes. "It's all over, it's all over, this bald monk is beyond saving."

"Go!" Sun Wukong snapped him out of his reverie with a flap of his wing. "To the Tushita Heaven Palace! Now! Immediately! Right now!"

Under the moonlight, two gusts of demonic wind staggered towards the Thirty-Three Heavens.

Yichun Brothel, Tang Sanzang was tapping his feet to the rhythm of the pipa when he suddenly noticed a glint of Golden Light in Fang Yu's eyes.

"Fang Yu?"

"Huh?" Fang Yu looked up in a daze, crushing the wine glass in his hand.

He stared at his hands covered in wine and muttered to himself, "What am I doing?"

Beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens, the rosy clouds shone like a ribbon.

Sun Wukong grabbed Zhu Bajie by the ear and somersaulted up the white jade steps in front of the Tushita Heaven Palace.

"Ouch! Be gentle!" Zhu Bajie clapped his swollen ear and jumped up and down. "You Monkey, why are you getting so worked up? Why are you dragging Old Pig into this!"

Before he could finish speaking, the palace gate creaked open a crack.

The alchemy boy poked his head out, but upon seeing the swaying Golden Cudgel, he screamed and shrank back, yelling, "That Monkey is trying to steal my pills again! Hide! Hide!"

"Hide my ass!" Sun Wukong kicked open the palace gate and slammed his Golden Cudgel on the ground. "Old Sun, Old Sun, stopped doing such petty theft a long time ago!" He grabbed the boy who was trying to slip away by the back of his collar. "Where's the old man?"

The boy's legs trembled. "My... my master Peach Banquet."

"Bullshit!" Sun Wukong sneered. "The Queen Mother didn't hold a banquet at all this year!" He sniffed towards the alchemy room. "The fire is still burning brightly. The old man is definitely in there kneading pills!"

Zhu Bajie suddenly sniffed hard. "Huh? Is this furnace refining Nine-Turned Intestines?"

The boy stamped his foot in frustration. "Great Sage, no! I'll go get my master right now!" He muttered as he ran, "Letting Monkey eat the pill? It's such a waste that it doesn't even chew it."

After half a cup of tea, Purple Qi Comes from the East in the east.

Grand Supreme Elder Lao, riding a cloud, hurriedly landed, his whisk nearly hitting Sun Wukong in the face. "You impudent monkey! Instead of going to the Journey to the West the scriptures, you've come here to wreak havoc on my alchemy room?!"

Sun Wukong, grinning, grabbed his sleeve. "Old man, isn't this just adding another tribulation to the Eighty-One Tribulations?"

"What's it to me!"

Laojun turned to leave, Zhu Bajie, eager to get closer, was about to speak when Laojun's beard bristled with anger. "Take this pig with you and get out!"

Zhu Bajie sheepishly withdrew his hand. "Hehe."

Monkey King followed up, "You old man, you really didn't get involved in the journey to the West?"

Grand Supreme Elder Lao waved his hand to shoo away Monkey King, saying, "I'm not getting involved! Go away! Don't bother me!"

Monkey King chased after him again, "Old man, that kid is quite interesting, why don't you take a look?"

"I don't want to look!"

"No way!" Monkey King raised his voice, "If you don't take care of this, I'm not leaving! Unless you guard the alchemy furnace all day long, otherwise..."

"You impudent monkey, how can I help? That kid is burdened with so many tribulations that it's no different from a demon reincarnated in his past life. The Karma Heaven, the karma of the universe, all want his life. What can I do?"

Sun Wukong scratched his head, looking disdainful. "Hey! Old man, you're no good at this too! After all that talk, you're just incompetent! Is it that you can't help, or that you're unable to help?"

Grand Supreme Elder Lao, glared and puffed out his beard. "You impudent monkey! What do you know? Let alone an unstable state of mind, even severing the three corpses with my bare hands would be a piece of cake for me! Do you really think I'm just a boiler operator?"

Sun Wukong tugged at Grand Supreme Elder Lao's sleeve and said in a coquettish tone, "Old man, I know you're powerful. Who in heaven has such great Divine Ability as you? So why are you willing to help but not helping?"

Grand Supreme Elder Lao frowned and shook his head. "That's against the rules! Since that boy has already become Zhen Yuanzi's disciple, if I were to interfere rashly, wouldn't that cause chaos?"

Sun Wukong's eyes darted around, and he leaned closer with a grin. "Hey! Just consider it doing Old Sun a favor, okay?"

Grand Supreme Elder Lao sighed helplessly, "Fine, fine, you monkey, I'll make the trip."

Monkey King breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Grand Supreme Elder Lao had agreed.

But Grand Supreme Elder Lao suddenly changed his tone, "Monkey, you'd better think this through. You'll be in for a world of trouble if this kid gets into trouble in the future!"

Monkey King chuckled wickedly, "If the sky falls, won't you, old man, hold it up?"

Grand Supreme Elder Lao waved his hand, "I'm too lazy to get involved in these things. The highest good is like water, which benefits all things without striving. Difficult things in the world must be done by starting with the easy, and great things in the world must be done by starting with the small."

Monkey King quickly interrupted, "Old man, you're talking in a language I don't understand again! Hurry up! If that kid keeps going like this, he'll become a demon! Then every female demon in the world will have his offspring, and what's the point of going to the Western Heaven to retrieve the scriptures?"

"Alright, let's set off."

Just as Laojun was about to leave, he suddenly turned around and glanced at Zhu Bajie.

"Where did this pig come from? Is it your pet?"

Zhu Bajie's face darkened. "Laojun, you must be joking."

"Oh dear! Look at my memory, Marshal Tianpeng, Marshal Tianpeng, hehe."

Zhu Bajie blinked, "What a rascal! At his age, he still wants to tease Old Pig."

A pig, a monkey, and Laojun rode the clouds and flew towards the human world.

Monkey King suddenly looked at Laojun and asked, "Old man, what are you planning to do?"

Grand Supreme Elder Lao pondered for a moment, "To be honest, I have never seen the Karma lines on his body before. As the saying goes, misfortune may be a blessing in disguise, and a blessing may be a misfortune in disguise. He who does not see himself is enlightened; he who does not assert himself is distinguished; he who does not boast of his achievements is meritorious; he who does not pride himself on his abilities is able to endure."

Monkey King scratched his head, "Say something Old Sun, can understand!"

Grand Supreme Elder Lao helplessly, "At worst, we'll just give him a cultivation method! If any problems arise later, it'll all be your fault, you Monkey. Do you understand?"

Monkey King laughed and replied, "Old Sun 'm here!"

"Hmph, I hope you keep your word, you monkey."

After saying this, Laojun muttered softly, "I just hope this fire doesn't burn me."
