The Plantain Fan's Reward
Meanwhile, Tang Xuanzang and Zhu Bajie overheard Sun Wukong's conversation with the Bull Devil King because Sun Wukong was carrying a communication device. After hearing it, Zhu Bajie couldn't help but scold Sun Wukong: "Brother, what you just said really hurt the Bull Devil King's pride! You said you severely injured him, he definitely won't let it go. Then you'll probably cripple him, and then the Bull Devil King will resent you even more! How could you do this?!"
Hearing Zhu Bajie's words, Monkey Sun Wukong scoffed, "Don't worry, my master isn't one to be easily taken advantage of. If the Bull Devil King wants revenge on my master, it won't be an easy task. Even if the Bull Devil King has such ability, he probably won't return alive!"
"Hmm, that's true!" After Sun Wukong finished speaking, Zhu Bajie breathed a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, Sun Wukong continued his journey towards Tang Xuanzang. Tang Xuanzang and his companions had been waiting for Sun Wukong for a long time. Upon seeing Sun Wukong return, Tang Xuanzang went to greet Sun Wukong and asked, "Wukong, are you alright? Did they capture you?"
"How could I possibly be captured by them?" Sun Wukong shook his head after hearing Tang Xuanzang's words and said, "Master, we've struck it rich this time! You know, when I was in Heavenly Court, I injured Zhenyuanzi, and now all the Heavenly Court soldiers and generals are searching everywhere for me!"
"Zhenyuanzi was injured?!" Upon hearing Sun Wukong's words, the monks were all stunned. They had not expected that Sun Wukong would be so powerful this time, actually injuring Zhenyuanzi.
However, everyone understood that while Zhenyuanzi was powerful, Sun Wukong was no less formidable. Sun Wukong's strength far surpassed that of Zhenyuanzi.
"Master, I've retrieved the Plantain Fan. Let's hurry back and put out the fire on Flaming Mountain!" Sun Wukong said to Tang Xuanzang.
"Okay, let's go back right away, but we need to have lunch first." Tang Xuanzang said to Sun Wukong after hearing Sun Wukong words. He then prepared to instruct the kitchen to prepare some food so that they could eat here before returning.
After hearing this, Sun Wukong nodded. "Okay, let's go eat first, and then we can continue our journey!" Sun Wukong nodded in agreement.
After Sun Wukong agreed to Tang Xuanzang's request, Tang Xuanzang instructed someone to go to the kitchen and tell the kitchen staff to quickly prepare some delicious food.
While Tang Xuanzang and Sun Wukong Tang Xuanzang talking, the two disciples behind him saw Sun Wukong talking and their eyes revealed jealousy. They were both secretly envious of Sun Wukong.
Because Sun Wukong had performed so impressively at the Flaming Mountain, even beating up the Bull Devil King and causing him to lose face, the Bull Devil King would definitely find an opportunity to tell his father about it after returning to his Demon Race's territory. He believed his father would definitely deal with Sun Wukong.
His father was the twelfth Golden Immortal under the Heavenly Emperor, the father of the Bull Devil King. He held a very high position among the Demon Race, second only to the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court and the Buddha of the Western Sect. They had a very good relationship and their families helped each other.
His father was very fond of the Bull Devil King, and if the Bull Devil King really asked him for help, he would definitely help him. This matter was definitely very disadvantageous for Sun Wukong.
After thinking about this, the two disciples glanced at Sun Wukong, their eyes darting around slightly, and decided to teach Sun Wukong a lesson.
Just then, Tang Xuanzang suddenly asked Sun Wukong a question. Sun Wukong couldn't think of one at first, so he asked Tang Xuanzang, "Master, what's wrong? Why are you asking this question?"
"I just heard you say that you injured Zhenyuanzi when you were in Heavenly Court. Is that true?"
Upon hearing Tang Xuanzang's words, Sun Wukong paused for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Master, please don't believe me about this. I've always been very honest and upright; how could I possibly do something so rebellious! If you don't believe me, you can ask my wife and my junior brother Wujing. They definitely know the truth of this matter!"
After hearing Sun Wukong's words, Tang Xuanzang looked at the two people behind Sun Wukong and asked Sun Wukong, "Monkey, you just said that you fought with the Bull Devil King when you were in Heavenly Court?"
"Yes, Master!"
"Monkey, you're not allowed to mess around with this. If you dare to, your master won't let you off the hook, "Tang Xuanzang said with a very serious expression.
Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha, who were standing nearby, looked at Sun Wukong with great concern after hearing Tang Xuanzang's words. They knew Tang Xuanzang's personality well, and if Sun Wukong acted recklessly, they would suffer.
"Master, don't worry, I definitely won't do anything reckless, and I certainly won't do anything reckless this time either. I'm very honest! How could someone as obedient as me do anything reckless!" Seeing the worried look on Tang Xuanzang's face, Sun Wukong Tang Xuanzang explained to him.
This time, Sun Wukong was indeed unlikely to do anything reckless, because Sun Wukong knew that he was retrieving the Plantain Fan to save the creatures of Flaming Mountain; otherwise, he wouldn't have cared about Plantain Fan at all. Therefore, there was no need for him to go through the trouble of retrieving the Plantain Fan.
After Sun Wukong gave this assurance, Tang Xuanzang Sun Wukong felt relieved.
However, Tang Xuanzang was still a little worried and said to Sun Wukong, "Monkey, you mustn't do anything reckless! I know you're going to save the creatures of the Flaming Mountain, and I know it's partly your fault, but I hope you can handle it well. Otherwise, I won't let you off easily!"
"Master, don't worry, I will definitely retrieve the Plantain Fan safely." Sun Wukong said solemnly after hearing Tang Xuanzang's words.
After hearing Sun Wukong's words, Tang Xuanzang nodded.
After Tang Xuanzang nodded, Zhu Bajie also came over and said to Sun Wukong, "Brother Monkey, now that you've retrieved the Plantain Fan, things are much easier! But Brother Monkey, you've done a great service this time, and Master will definitely reward you!"
