I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

Li Chen was just about to wonder where this cry for help came from when he saw a figure running at top speed, crashing directly into his arms. He looked closely and saw it was a child in tattered clothes, covered in mud.

The child looked at Li Chen with horror, then kowtowed to him and knelt down, muttering, "Please, don't kill me!"

Li Chen stepped forward and helped the child who was kneeling on the ground up. Chen looked at the child in front of him. There were several knife marks on his body and clothes, as well as several fork marks on his body. It was almost certain that he was injured by the demon soldiers.

"Don't be afraid, kid. We are gods. We are here to exorcise demons and monsters. We won't hurt you!" Fairy Hibiscus, who was standing next to Li Chen, said soothingly in a gentle voice, putting her hand on the child's head and stroking it gently.

A special scent also wafted from the Hibiscus Fairy's body. This was the fragrance of the hibiscus flower, which could soothe people's hearts and calm their minds.

"Fairy sister, please save my mother!" the child said, and then knelt down to the Hibiscus Fairy.

"Why don't you tell me what's going on with your mother and the entire Chang'an City?"

Li Chen walked up and asked the child in front of him.

"Big Brother, and Fairy Sister, those monsters are having a killing competition in the city! And they're giving out rewards based on the number of heads they cut off!"

As the child cried, the scene of the demon soldiers slaughtering the people appeared in front of his eyes again. His mother pushed him away to protect him, but his mother was surrounded by demons and her life or death was uncertain.

"Fairy Hibiscus, let's go! Let's kill these beasts!"

Li Chen felt his scalp tingle when he heard the words "killing contest". He had never imagined these demon soldiers could be so crazy. This was something he hadn't seen when he played Dream Westward Journey IV on his computer.

Fairy Hibiscus nodded in agreement, and the two of them immediately walked towards Chang'an City.

"Brother and sister, where are you going?" the child asked with tears in his eyes.

"Brother and sister are going to rescue your mother. You should find a safe place to hide and don't let anyone find you!" After saying this, Fairy Hibiscus smiled at the child and made a face.

After seeing the beautiful smile of the Hibiscus Fairy, the child felt as if he were bathed in spring breeze and began to smile as well. Afterwards, he followed the Hibiscus Fairy's instructions and found a safe place to hide.

Li Chen looked at Fairy Hibiscus and was puzzled. Oh my God, is this really the ruthless shrew who protected the Earth Witch? Not only is she gentle, kind, and amiable, but she can also make children happy. Could it be that the system has changed Fairy Hibiscus's personality?

"System, who are you? What's going on right now? Logically speaking, according to the timeline of Dream Journey to the West, where are Tang Sanzang and his disciples?"

Li Chen asked in his heart doubtfully.

"This system is the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao in the world of Dream Journey to the West. Because in the current world view of Dream Journey to the West, Tang Sanzang and his disciples have been killed by Tong Tian Patriarch! The world is about to face a catastrophe, so you are ordered to come and replace Tang Sanzang and his disciples to stop Tong Tian Patriarch!"

The system's cold voice sounded, answering Li Chen's doubts.

Soon, Li Chen and Fairy Hibiscus arrived at Suzaku Street. The scene here was truly chaotic! Screams and grim laughter echoed one after another.

On the streets where blazing flames were constantly burning, the people of Chang'an were killed or injured in the pursuit of demons. There were even women with children in their arms stabbed to death and their heads chopped off by the demons. The demons then put the children in their arms into their blood-soaked mouths and chewed them wantonly.

Some people were about to escape from the clutches of the demons, but before they could be happy, an arrow pierced their chest. It turned out that in order to prevent them from escaping, there was a group of tiger demon soldiers with bows and arrows guarding the periphery to prevent people from escaping the encirclement. In this way, this place became a hunting ground of death!

Li Chen couldn't bear to watch this scene any longer and shouted at the group of demons, "Stop!"

The demons all looked in the direction where the sound came from, and saw a young man wearing armor, holding a golden and red stick in his hand, glaring at him.

"Host triggers the quest 'Although I understand the vastness of the universe, I still pity the green grass and trees'. Slay the demons that are slaughtering the people! Upon completion, you will be rewarded with a top-quality mount training gift pack!"

When the demons saw the appearance of Li Chen and Fairy Hibiscus, they couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Hahahaha! I thought some great character had come, but it was just a brat with a gorgeous bride. It seems like this brat wants us to eat our fill so he can have some fun with that beautiful bride later! Isn't that right, brothers?"

The leading demon soldier finished speaking, and the surrounding demons echoed. After hearing the demons' laughter, Li Chen rushed directly behind them with a blazing flash. Behind those demons were the weaker tiger demon archers! Li Chen began to spin his stick at an extremely fast speed, and terrifying flames began to ignite on the stick. Then, the flames suddenly exploded from around Li Chen and hit the tiger demon archers hard.

The tiger demon archers themselves were weak in cultivation, so they had to use bows and arrows. Their cultivation was simply unable to withstand the fierce attack of the flame storm, and the moment they were knocked to the ground by the flame storm, they died one after another!

"Boy, you are so despicable! Brothers, kill him to avenge our dead brothers!"

Seeing those tiger demon archers being killed, a bear demon holding a machete roared, and then rushed forward with other demons, wanting to tear Li Chen into pieces!

"Demons, stop being so arrogant! Blood-sucking Binding!"

I saw several strong emerald green vines wrapped around the legs of all the demons at the same time, and began to continuously suck blood and strength from them!
