The Calamity of the End Times and the Mysterious Woman's Origins
After the Journey to the West, Buddhism flourished, but a huge calamity was quietly forming.
A baby's cry roused the darkness, signaling the reincarnation of the Devil Ancestor Luohou, and a great upheaval was about to occur once again in the Primordial World.
Ancestor Hongjun naturally noticed the abnormality as well, and frowned slightly. "That old man Luohou actually seized the opportunity to be reborn and descend into the world. It seems that a new calamity is about to arrive. I wonder what Changsheng Daoist Changsheng thinks about this?"
Ao Changsheng was far away in the Great Dao Realm, naturally noticed the change, and the system notification sounded again.
"Ding! The Calamity of the Dharma-Ending Age is about to descend. Devil Race Luo Hou has been reborn and has chosen to go into seclusion. He is rewarded with the Great Dao Eye of Heavenly Secrets."
"I will not go into seclusion; I will lead the Dragon God Clan to save the world. (Default: I will abandon the system.)"
Ao Changsheng chose to go into seclusion with his eyes closed; it was something he was used to.
Meanwhile, the Devil Race Luohou has already begun a new life as an infant.
Within the Luo Dynasty, the Demon King Rakshasa, the Great Witch Arhat, along with the Three Pure Ones, Quasi-Saints, and the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, discussed how to resolve this demonic calamity. If they could not resolve this crisis, Rakshasa would undoubtedly die, and the Luo Dynasty would also face annihilation.
"Rakshasa, do you have any good ideas?" Celestial Venerable Yuanshi asked.
"Reporting to Master, I have gained some insight; all of this is predestined," Rakshasa said respectfully. "This demonic calamity is a test of fate. If we can overcome this catastrophe, perhaps we will receive the protection of Heaven. If we cannot, we can only let it unfold as it will."
"Oh? What do you mean?" Celestial Venerable Yuanshi looked at Rakshasa with some doubt.
"Master, do you still remember the woman we met in Heavenly Court?" Rakshasa asked.
"That woman?" Everyone was taken aback.
"Yes, she is the reincarnation of our Luo family lineage!"
"A reincarnated being?" Everyone was shocked.
"Rakshasa, how is this possible!" The Three Purities Tongtian were shocked.
"Yes, how could this be!" Celestial Venerable Yuanshi muttered to himself.
"Master, everything I have said is true, and I have not concealed anything," Rakshasa said.
Celestial Venerable Yuanshi pondered for a moment, then shook his head. "How is this possible? That woman was just a mortal. How could she have successfully reincarnated? Could there be some trickery involved?"
"Reporting to Master, there is indeed a trap!" Rakshasa replied respectfully.
"So how should we handle this?"
"Master, I believe we need to consult that reincarnated woman to verify this matter," Rakshasa said.
"Yes, we do need to find that woman and ask her, but we are currently trapped in the Heavenly Palace," said Celestial Venerable Yuanshi.
"Master, I think we should first gather Princess Rakshasi together, and then let Princess Rakshasi personally question that woman. If what Princess Rakshasi says is true, then our Luo Clan will be saved," Sun Wukong, who had been silent all along, suddenly stood up and suggested.
"Wukong is right. We can only do as Wukong says now. Let's summon Rakshasa first, so we can prepare in advance and avoid being caught off guard later," Celestial Venerable Yuanshi agreed.
"Alright, let's do it that way!" Rakshasa agreed.
Next, the group summoned the Demon King Rakshasa and all the high-ranking Luo Clan, and then began to lead Rakshasa to the Empress Wa Palace to find the reincarnated woman.
In an instant, all the high-ranking members of the Luo Clan were mobilized, and the entire Luo Clan's power began to operate. Rakshasa also summoned all her clansmen at the first opportunity.
At this moment, a petite and exquisite little girl was rushing from the Heavenly Court to the Empress Wa Palace; this person was none other than Chang'e.
"Chang'e, you've finally arrived! Weren't you worried about us? I've safely reached the Heavenly Court now, so you don't need to worry about us anymore, right?" Sun Wukong said happily as he approached Chang'e.
Sun Wukong, Rakshasa, and Chang'e all met in West Ox Hezhou. There, Sun Wukong and Chang'e had a brief, fleeting romance. Throughout the fifteen years of Sun Wukong's reincarnation, Chang'e's heart remained devoted to Sun Wukong. Even though Sun Wukong's cultivation had transcended the mortal realm, Chang'e's love for Sun Wukong remained unchanged; this love transcended social status, focusing solely on affection.
"It's good that you're alright!" Chang'e was relieved to hear that Sun Wukong had safely arrived in Heavenly Court.
"I'm fine, but Chang'e, what brings you to Heavenly Court all of a sudden?" Sun Wukong asked, somewhat puzzled.
"I heard you were in danger in Heavenly Court, so I came to see you," Chang'e replied.
"Are you worried about my safety?" Sun Wukong asked with a smile.
"Hmm." Chang'e nodded gently, then blushed and quickly said, "I came to tell you that I'm leaving."
"Oh, you're leaving already? Why? I still have so much to tell you." Sun Wukong suddenly became anxious.
"It's alright, I'll be waiting for you in West Ox Hezhou. I believe you'll return safely," Chang'e said.
"Then I'll see you off!" Sun Wukong said.
"No need, I can walk by myself." Chang'e said, then turned and left.
"Alas, Chang'e, why won't you come with me? Am I not good enough?" Sun Wukong thought to himself as he watched Chang'e's departing figure, but Sun Wukong dared not show it.
At this moment, Rakshasa appeared before Sun Wukong Rakshasa asked, "Brother Monkey, how are you now? How is your injury recovering?"
"Rakshasa, thanks to your help in rescuing me, otherwise I would have been in grave danger!" Sun Wukong said to Rakshasa.
"It's what I should do, but I didn't expect you to have successfully reincarnated. Congratulations!" Rakshasa said to Sun Wukong with delight.
"Rakshasa, no matter what, thank you!" Sun Wukong said sincerely, expressing his gratitude to Rakshasa. After all, Rakshasa had ended up in this state because of him, and Sun Wukong could only do his best to repay Rakshasa.
"Brother Monkey, you don't need to be so polite with me, otherwise I'll feel embarrassed," Rakshasa said, waving her hand.
"Haha!" Sun Wukong loudly, without saying anything more.
The two then left together.
Meanwhile, in the Heavenly Court, Taibai Jinxing and others gathered together.
"Rakshasa and Wukong have both arrived safely in Heavenly Court this time. What do you think of this?" Tongtian asked, looking at everyone.
"Senior brother, both Rakshasa and Wukong deserve credit for this matter, and we shouldn't show favoritism. However, we don't know who that reincarnated woman is," Jieyin said.
