Little White Dragon's Assassination Attempt on the Old Yellow-Robed Demon

Meanwhile, the princess was completely unaware of what was happening. She was dressing up in front of the mirror when, after a short while, the Old Yellow-Robed Monster, his hair standing on end in a rage, appeared before her.

Seeing this, the princess spoke gently to the Old Yellow-Robed Demon:

"I wonder what's making you look so worried. Could you tell me so I can share your burden?"

The princess's words only made things worse; once she spoke, the Old Yellow-Robed Demon couldn't hold back any longer and cursed at her:

"You woman's heart! When I brought you here, I would find whatever you needed and care for you every day. You were so devoted to your parents, yet you only thought of them and never of me."

Upon hearing this, the princess was so frightened that she knelt down and said:

Why did you say such a thing? What did I do wrong to make you say such words of separation?

Seeing this, the Old Yellow-Robed Demon said to the princess:

"I don't want to be separated from you, it's just that your heart is not with me at all. Why did you give your letter to that Tang Xuanzang? Otherwise, why would those two monks have come to my door and even tried to rescue you?"

Upon hearing this, the princess immediately explained to the Old Yellow-Robed Demon:

"Why would you say such a thing? I didn't even produce my letter."

Seeing this, the Old Yellow-Robed Demon chuckled coldly and said to the princess:

"You're still being stubborn. I've already caught Tang Xuanzang's second disciple Sha Wujing, and he's told me everything. What are you still trying to explain to me?"

After the Old Yellow-Robed Demon finished speaking, he grabbed her and dragged her away. The princess came to Sha Wujing, threw her to the ground, and said to Sha Wujing:

"Quickly tell the princess the truth: did the princess send you to Kingdom of Precious Images to seek help?"

Upon hearing this, Sha Wujing thought to himself:

"If I tell the truth, he will kill the princess, but if I don't tell the truth, I'll definitely die. Since I've done my master a favor, I'll help this princess out."

After thinking it over, Sha Wujing said to the Old Yellow-Robed Demon:

"Don't misunderstand the princess. We have a reason for asking you for her."

"Because you tied my master up in the struggle, and he happened to meet the princess. After returning to Kingdom of Precious Images, the emperor brought out the princess's portrait and asked my master to identify it. My master had no choice but to tell the whole story."

Upon hearing this, the Old Yellow-Robed Demon realized he had wronged the princess. He immediately helped her up and said to her:

"Princess, please forgive my rudeness."

After saying this, the Old Yellow-Robed Demon looked gently at the princess, and the Old Yellow-Robed Demon immediately said to him:

"If you really want to coax me, then hurry up and untie this Sha Wujing's ropes."

Upon hearing this, the Old Yellow-Robed Demon immediately ordered his little demon to untie Sha Wujing's ropes and prepare a feast to comfort the princess and calm her nerves.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, the Old Yellow-Robed Demon put down his precious sword and said to the princess:

"Now that things have come to this, it's time for me to go and reunite with my father-in-law."

After speaking, the Old Yellow-Robed Demon turned around and transformed into a handsome scholar.

Then he rode the clouds and arrived in Kingdom of Precious Images, where he said to the ambassador:

"Go and inform the king that his third son-in-law has arrived and that he should come out to greet me immediately."

Upon hearing the words of the Old Yellow-Robed Demon, the ambassador panicked and, without thinking, reported to the king.

The king was completely bewildered upon hearing this, so he summoned the yellow -Old Yellow-Robed Demon his side and asked him:

"Where exactly did you come from? Why do you say you are my third son-in-law? Have you seen my princess?"

Upon hearing this, the Old Yellow-Robed Demon used sweet words and feigned affection to deceive the king.

The king was completely swayed by the Old Yellow-Robed Demon's flattery, forgetting the truth about the Old Yellow-Robed Demon's origins. Then, upon seeing Tang Xuanzang, the Old Yellow-Robed Demon immediately addressed the king:

"Your Majesty, you must be careful. I encountered a ferocious tiger while hunting in the mountains; it had long since become a spirit."

Upon hearing this, the king panicked and hurriedly asked the Old Yellow-Robed Demon:

Where exactly is that monster?

Upon hearing this, the Old Yellow-Robed Demon immediately pointed at Tang Xuanzang and solemnly said to the king:

"To tell you the truth, Your Majesty, that monster is right beside you; it's that fellow who looks like a monk."

After speaking, the Old Yellow-Robed Monster immediately stepped forward, drew his sword, and pointed it at Tang Xuanzang. At the same time, Tang Xuanzang was completely bewildered. Tang Xuanzang thought to himself:

"Good heavens, I'm just sitting here and this mess falls from the sky. How did this get me involved again? Isn't this your family reunion? I'm just an observer."

But the king, looking bewildered and distressed, addressed the Old Yellow-Robed Monster:

"Since you say he's a tiger, what's your proof?"

Upon hearing this, the Old Yellow-Robed Monster used a minor Law Technique to transform Tang Xuanzang into a brightly colored tiger.

Upon seeing Tang Xuanzang's appearance, the king was instantly terrified and his legs went weak. Only a few daring meritorious officials rushed forward, wielding various weapons and slashing at Tang Xuanzang.

However, Tang Xuanzang had learned some Vajra Indestructible Body in his early years, so he was not harmed in any way.

Upon seeing this, the king locked Tang Xuanzang in an iron cage and then held a grand banquet to welcome the prince consort.

However, while the Old Yellow-Robed Monster was enjoying his drink, he suddenly became ferocious, grabbed a woman, and bit off her head.

Everyone was shocked to see this and scattered in all directions. However, the Old Yellow-Robed Monster sat alone on the throne, pouring himself wine and drinking it. When he was in a good mood, he would grab someone and bite them.

While the Old Yellow-Robed Monster enjoyed his pleasure alone inside, countless officials outside were spreading the word:

"That Tang Xuanzang from the Eastern Lands was actually a tiger spirit."

Just then, the White Dragon Horse was dozing off when it suddenly heard one of the officials say those words. It became very angry and wanted to rescue Tang Xuanzang.

After a short while, the White Dragon Horse finally couldn't resist any longer. It broke free of its reins, transformed itself, and rode on a dark cloud, looking down at the palace from the sky.

The Old Yellow-Robed Monster was eating meat and drinking wine. The Little White Dragon smiled at this, thinking to himself:

"This monster is really weak, revealing its true strength like this. I wonder how my master is doing now. But I must defeat this monster first, and then it won't be too late to rescue my master."

After thinking it over, the White Dragon Horse transformed into a palace maid, with a graceful posture and a voluptuous figure.

He slowly approached the Old Yellow-Robed Monster and gently said to him:

"My lord, please don't kill me. How about I pour you some wine?"

Upon hearing this, the Old Yellow-Robed Monster smiled and said to the Little White Dragon:

"That's excellent, why don't you go and do it?"

Upon hearing this, Little White Dragon quickly picked up the wine pot and poured it into the Old Yellow-Robed Monster's cup.
