I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

Li Chen fell into deep thought. He hadn't found the completed Fenglian armor in the Yellow Wind King's demon cave. The system hadn't given him the Fenglian armor either. Could it be that the Fenglian armor had been eaten?

Just as Li Chen was thinking, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps behind him, accompanied by the sound of heavy breathing. He turned around and saw the Nine-tailed Fox and the Jade Rabbit Fairy running towards him, followed by a strange man. It was the real Ma Hongji.

"Master, I, the Jade Rabbit Fairy, and I have brought the real Ma Hongji to rescue you!" The Nine-Tailed Fox knelt on one knee and reported to Li Chen respectfully. Her eyes revealed her loyalty and concern for Li Chen.

"Li Chen! Are you alright?" the Jade Rabbit Fairy asked with concern. She was well aware of the immense power of the Wind Ancestral Shaman and the Hundred Immortal Butterflies, especially the terrifying might of the Wind Ancestral Shaman's storm. Although Li Chen's body was immune to poison, she couldn't help but worry about such a powerful enemy.

According to Li Chen's original plan, he had intended to let the real Ma Hongji use the deep friendship between the two to persuade Baixiandie, hoping to allow her to regain her self and break free from the control of the Wind Ancestral Witch.

This plan may seem simple, but it contains endless risks and challenges, because they must face the threat of the Wind Ancestral Witch and at the same time find a way to break through the psychological defenses of the Hundred Immortal Butterflies.

All of this requires time and effort, and more importantly, the concerted efforts of everyone. Because only in this way can they have a chance to break through Baixiandie's psychological defenses and awaken her true nature.

However, facing the ancient demon-level spiritual bewitchment of the Wind Ancestral Shaman, the success of this plan remained uncertain. After all, the power of the Wind Ancestral Shaman was too great, and even if everyone went all out, they might not be able to truly break through the Hundred Immortal Butterflies' mental defenses.

But now, with the intervention of Bodhi Patriarch, the situation has changed. The appearance of Bodhi Patriarch allowed Li Chen to see hope in such a direct form, and also made Li Chen realize that in the face of absolute strength, all tactics and skills are futile.

Because of the help of Bodhi Patriarch, Li Chen was able to defeat the Wind Ancestral Witch so smoothly and save the Hundred Immortal Butterflies. At this time, Li Chen said excitedly: "I'm fine, I defeated the Wind Ancestral Witch and the Hundred Immortal Butterflies!"

In fact, he didn't want to lie, but the voice in his head kept reminding him not to reveal the truth to the Nine-tailed Fox and the Jade Rabbit Fairy.

Therefore, he chose to conceal the truth and could only tell them that he had successfully defeated the Wind Ancestral Witch and the Hundred Immortal Butterflies. Upon hearing this news, everyone was overjoyed, except Ma Hongji, who was in sorrow.

Seeing Ma Hongji's sad and lost look, Li Chen stepped forward and patted his shoulder, saying, "Don't worry, Baixiandie, I didn't use too much force! She's just a little weak now, having just escaped the control of the Wind Ancestral Witch. Just let her recover a little!"

As they were talking, Baixiandie slowly woke up and opened her eyes, her eyes full of confusion and bewilderment. After looking around, her eyes finally fell on Ma Hongji. Ma Hongji was overjoyed to see Baixiandie wake up and immediately ran to her side.

"Ma Hongji, why are you here?" Baixiandie asked in astonishment. She couldn't understand why Ma Hongji suddenly appeared here. After all, Ma Hongji had always been controlled by the Wind Ancestral Witch, so he shouldn't be here.

"It was them! These immortals saved me!" Ma Hongji excitedly pointed at Li Chen and his companions, his voice filled with joy and gratitude. Baixiandie, hearing this, turned to look at Li Chen and his companions, a flicker of surprise in her eyes. Then, without hesitation, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed devoutly to Li Chen and his companions in gratitude. Seeing this, Ma Hongji quickly knelt as well, joining in expressing their gratitude.

Li Chen and his companions quickly stepped forward, helped the two men up, and comforted them, "There's no need to be so. We just saw injustice and wanted to help."

Baixiandie stood up and bowed to Li Chen again, then asked respectfully, "May I ask your name, Immortal?"

"My name is Li Chen. The one holding the pestle is the Jade Rabbit Fairy, and the beautiful one next to her is the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox!"

Li Chen introduced his companions to Baixiandie, but he didn't expect that Baixiandie would immediately show a look of surprise after hearing Li Chen's name.

"You are Li Chen?!" Bai Xiandie said in great surprise, with an expression of disbelief on her face. Her expression clearly showed that she had heard of the name Li Chen before, otherwise she would not have lost her composure like this.

"Have you heard of my name?" Li Chen asked doubtfully, his curiosity growing. He hadn't expected his name to be so famous now, even someone like Baixiandie had heard of it.

"Yes, I've heard your name before." Baixiandie nodded and continued, "When I was in meditation, a deity told me that the world was about to face a great catastrophe."

Her eyes revealed deep worry and fear, as if she was recalling the scene at that time. Li Chen listened quietly to Baixiandie's story.

"A catastrophe?! Is there any way to avert it?" Ma Hongji asked in shock, a hint of anxiety in his voice. You know, if a catastrophe were to strike this world, it would be a land of devastation, bringing chaos and devastation to all.

"There is a way to resolve it, but it requires a specific person to resolve this catastrophe. The immortal told me that this person is called 'Li Chen'!" Baixiandie stared at Li Chen closely, with expectation and hope in her eyes.

"That immortal also told me that if I work with Li Chen to quell this catastrophe, I will surely achieve enlightenment and be ranked among the immortals!"

At this point, Baixiandie's eyes shone with light. After all, for a butterfly that has practiced for thousands of years, the temptation of becoming an immortal or a Buddha is too great!

"I never thought you were such a great hero!"

Ma Hongji looked at Li Chen in shock, gratitude, respect, and awe flowing from his face. Gratitude and respect were because Li Chen had saved him, and awe was because the Butterfly Fairy, whom he respected the most, had actually heard of Li Chen's name, and was such a powerful and ruthless character.

"Immortal Li Chen! I wish to practice with you and help you put an end to this catastrophe as soon as possible!"

Baixiandie knelt on her knees and begged Li Chen to take her in. Seeing this, Li Chen stepped forward and gently lifted up Baixiandie with his hands, allowing her to stand up from the ground.

How could he refuse this helper (pet + wife) who had come right to his door? Li Chen said to Baixiandie with a gentle expression, "Okay, I promise to take you in! But since you just caused the poisonous dust to fill the air, I'm sure Jinsha Village has also been affected. We must hurry and check on the villagers of Jinsha Village!"

"Yes!"

Baixiandie answered loudly, and then went to Jinsha Village with Ma Hongji, Li Chen and others to check on the villagers, Fairy Hibiscus, the Fire-Eating Poison Scorpion and Li Zhaohuang.
