I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

"Hurry up! Everyone speed up! Time is running out, we must get to Peach Blossom Valley as soon as possible!" Li Chen shouted anxiously to the people behind him.

At this time, the Demon-Destroying Army led by Li Chen, the monkeys of Huaguo Mountain, and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals led by the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas were marching non-stop towards Peach Blossom Valley.

No one dared to slack off, running forward with all their might. Along the way, all they could hear was Li Chen's anxious voice urging them: "Faster! We can't lose a single second!" These cries were accompanied by the clatter of hurried, powerful footsteps. These sounds intertwined, echoing endlessly in the whistling wind like a passionate war song.

At that moment, Li Chen, who had been concentrating on his journey, suddenly seemed to notice something and looked ahead. In an instant, his eyes were drawn to a figure moving at an astonishing speed. This figure was as swift as lightning across the night sky, closing in on them in the blink of an eye. Its lightning-fast speed was simply jaw-dropping.

"Look, what on earth is that?" Li Chen couldn't help but shout, his voice filled with astonishment and curiosity. At the same time, he didn't dare to slack off. He quickly gathered his mind, mobilized all his strength, and exerted his flaming eyes to the fullest extent, trying to see the true face of the person coming.

As his vision gradually cleared, Li Chen's expression shifted from initial confusion to shock. He was stunned to discover that the figure charging towards him was actually the old monkey from Huaguo Mountain! And most surprising of all, on the old monkey's broad, thick, golden-haired back was a strange-looking girl.

The young girl was wearing a light blue gauze dress, the thin fabric fluttering in the wind, like a fairy descending to earth. However, the beautiful gauze dress was no longer as clean as before. The hem of the dress was stained with large patches of bright red blood, like a blood flower blooming in the dark night, shocking to the eye.

The girl's long, lustrous, black hair had lost its usual neatness, now draped messily over her shoulders, obscuring most of her face. Through the gaps between her strands, one could see her face, pale as a sheet of paper, devoid of a trace of blood. Even her lips appeared exceptionally dry. Her eyes were tightly closed, motionless, as if she had completely lost consciousness, fallen into a deep coma.

What is particularly striking is that the girl's right hand tightly grasps a crystal-clear jade flute. Although this flute looks extremely delicate and not an ordinary item, it seems that this jade flute is something very important to the girl.

Behind the old monkey and the unconscious girl, a thick mist was chasing them at an extremely fast speed. As it pursued them, the mist also emitted an astonishing pressure, a pressure that Li Chen had also felt from the six great witch ancestors he had defeated.

That pressure was of the level of an ancient demon god. It was a murderous aura that was tyrannical, aggressive, bloody, barbaric and arrogant.

"The thing chasing them is Xuanming, the ancestor of rain!"

Li Chen couldn't help but be shocked in his heart. Is he going to fight with the Rain Ancestral Witch now?

This figure soon appeared in front of Li Chen and his group.

"Old monkey, are you okay?"

Li Chen asked hurriedly. He didn't want to care whether the old monkey had obtained the Rain Witch. He only cared whether the old monkey was hurt.

"Li Chen, I'm fine. It's just that this girl had a fierce battle with the Rain Witch to protect me, which consumed a lot of her physical strength. She has fainted now!" The old monkey said intermittently while gasping for breath.

His words were full of gratitude and relief. If it weren't for the brave girl holding the jade flute who came to his aid in time, he would have probably died at the hands of the Rain Witch's brutal tactics.

Upon hearing this, Li Chen hurried forward, wanting to check on the girl's injuries. However, as he approached, he was stunned by what he saw, and an indescribable shock welled up in his heart. He saw that the girl's eyebrows were as emerald green as distant black ink, and her skin was as delicate and smooth as white jade.

Her pretty face was like the petals of a peach blossom in full bloom in spring, and her black and shiny hair was as dazzling as piles of golden phoenix silk.

Especially those eyes as clear as autumn water, which exude a charming and enchanting posture when they move slightly; and her slender and long figure like spring bamboo shoots shows her charming and attractive demeanor.

The pale blue gauze dress draped diagonally across her body fluttered gently in the wind, shimmering with a dazzling array of colors. The pearls and jade jewels adorning her hair were also particularly dazzling. In terms of beauty, even the renowned ancient beauty Wang Zhaojun would be outshined. Her beauty truly surpassed that of Xi Shi, known for her beauty that could captivate even the most beautiful women.

Look at her slender and soft waist swaying with the slightest movement, and the golden ornaments hanging around her waist making crisp and pleasant sounds from time to time; the light steps under her feet are like the steps of a lotus, and every step seems to carry a hint of fairy air.

With such a stunning beauty, not to mention the fairy Chang'e in the Moon Palace, even the fairies from the nine heavens would probably be inferior to her.

Such an exquisite and ingenious makeup style is not something that ordinary women in the world can possess. It is as stunning as if the Queen Mother has descended from the fairyland of Yaochi to the mortal world.

Her face was as exquisite as a painting, and her eyes and eyebrows revealed an irresistible charm. This beautiful appearance instantly brought back Li Chen's childhood memories. He seemed to see the charming Queen of the Kingdom of Women who had appeared in "Journey to the West".

At that time, the Queen of the Kingdom of Women looked back and smiled, which was so charming that countless people were attracted by her. But the girl in front of him was not inferior to the Queen of the Kingdom of Women in his memory, and even surpassed her in beauty!

"Old monkey, I'll have to trouble you to continue carrying her on your back. I will transfer magic power to her to help her recover her strength as soon as possible. All of us should quickly return along the original route. We must escape from here as soon as possible!" Li Chen made a prompt decision and gave the order.

As soon as he finished speaking, the old monkey carefully carried the mysterious girl on his back, and Li Chen followed closely beside the old monkey, continuously transmitting magic power to the girl with his hands, hoping to help her recover as soon as possible.

At this moment, the strange mist seemed to notice the actions of Li Chen and others. It seemed to be enraged, and the originally slow-moving mist suddenly accelerated and surged, like a ferocious beast, rushing towards them with bared fangs and claws.
