In the end, the Great Sage broke the rules.

Just as Chen Yi and Sun Wukong were about to leave, Zhu Bajie's round figure finally came into view, followed closely by Sha Wujing with a simple and honest face.

The two jogged over, and when they saw the tea and fresh fruit on the stone table, Pigsy's already small eyes lit up instantly.

He eagerly reached out and grabbed a big, red peach, then stuffed it into his mouth and began to chew it vigorously.

"Oh dear, Master, I, Old Pig, thought you had been kidnapped by some blind monster. We were so worried about you."

"Who would have thought you'd be enjoying a meal here?"

While wolfing down the peaches, Pigsy mumbled something indistinctly.

Chen Yi rolled her eyes at him: "...Do you want this good fortune?"

Pigsy: "If there's anything delicious, I, Old Pig, will definitely want it."

Sun Wukong chimed in, "With beautiful women and fine wine to accompany him, if it were Pigsy, he would probably stay here."

Pigsy grunted in dissatisfaction, then his gaze fell on the teapot on the stone table. Just as he was about to reach for it, he was suddenly stopped by Monkey King.

Sun Wukong warned, "Bajie, don't drink it! This pot doesn't contain ordinary tea; it's a bewitching potion specially prepared for little monks by those tree spirits and vine monsters."

Without hesitation, Sun Wukong snatched the teapot and tossed it with force. The teapot flew through the air in an arc before crashing heavily to the ground, splashing the liquid inside everywhere.

Seeing this, Chen Yi, who was standing to the side, secretly rejoiced, thinking to himself that it was a good thing he hadn't drunk it.

Sun Wukong warily surveyed his surroundings, his eyes sharp as lightning, and then sternly rebuked, "Listen up, you demons! If you dare to come out again to do evil and harm living beings, your fate will be just like this table!"

Before he finished speaking, he raised his incredibly powerful golden cudgel high and then smashed it down on the stone table next to Pigsy.

With a loud crash, the sturdy stone table shattered into countless pieces of varying sizes under the powerful impact of the golden cudgel, scattering across the ground.

Almost simultaneously, the originally exquisitely decorated rattan chairs vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye, as if they had never existed, as if they had been startled.

Pigsy looked at the fruit on the ground with a pained expression and said with dissatisfaction, "Brother, you're such a waste! You could at least let me have a few more bites!"

Sun Wukong: "Eat, eat, eat! All you ever think about is eating!"

Chen Yi quickly said, "Alright, alright, let's hurry on our way."

The four continued on their journey.

……

"Great Sage, there seems to be a temple ahead!" Chen Yi spotted the building in the distance.

Upon hearing this, Pigsy immediately perked up and said, "Master, if there's a temple, there must be kind families. Let's go take a look; maybe we can even find a place to stay."

Sha Wujing chimed in, "Master, we've been walking for so long, it's time to find a place to rest."

Chen nodded in agreement, and the group quickened their pace toward the temple ahead.

As Chen Yifang got closer, he could see the plaque hanging above the temple gate, which had four large characters written on it in a flamboyant style: Xiao Leiyin Temple.

Upon seeing these four words, Chen Yi was startled: "!!!"

I thought it was an ordinary temple, but I never expected to have come to the territory of the Yellow-Eyebrowed Ancestor!

Sun Wukong stared intently at the seemingly peaceful and serene temple before him, then suddenly reached out and stopped Zhu Bajie, who was about to step forward.

With a frown, he said to Chen Yi, "Little monk, wait! There's a murderous aura emanating from this temple amidst its auspicious light and mist. We can't go in."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi quickly nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes, yes, the Great Sage is right. We should leave this place as soon as possible."

After saying that, he quickly turned around and walked away without hesitation.

However, Pigsy disagreed, retorting, "Master! Don't listen to your eldest brother's nonsense. I, Pigsy, didn't see any murderous aura at all! In my opinion, it must be that your eldest brother is seeing things!"

Sha Wujing earnestly advised, "Second Brother, if Eldest Brother says there's murderous intent, then it must be true. Let's listen to Eldest Brother."

Chen Yi glanced at Zhu Bajie, then at Sun Wukong and Sha Wujing, and advised, "Bajie, you need to be more careful. We'll listen to your eldest brother, okay?"

Pigsy stood there, his eyes full of hesitation, his feet seemingly nailed to the spot, unable to move an inch.

He stared pitifully ahead, muttering, "Master... I, Old Pig, still want to go in and take a look."

Chen Yi crossed his arms and said with a serious expression, "Bajie! You're going to suffer the consequences of not listening to the Great Sage! This place is very strange, let's leave quickly."

After saying that, he grabbed Sun Wukong without further ado and turned to leave.

"Hey, wait for me, Old Pig! You're so heartless, just leaving me like this?" Pigsy felt a little panicked when he saw how resolute they were.

Seeing that they were walking further and further away and seemed to have really stopped caring about him, Pigsy became really anxious and quickly took big strides to catch up.

Before long, the four of them had left the Little Thunderclap Temple far behind.

Huangmei Patriarch, who had been waiting inside the temple, waited and waited, but the master and his disciples never appeared.

He began to fidget, frowning as he said, "Why haven't they arrived yet?"

So, the Yellow-Eyebrowed Ancestor hurriedly sent a little demon to check the situation.

Before long, the little demon came running back, panting, and reported to the Yellow-Eyebrowed Ancestor: "Your Majesty, it's terrible! The Tang Monk and his disciples have already left, and they've gone quite a distance!"

Upon hearing this news, Old Ancestor Huangmei cursed a few times in anger.

He was hoping to lure his prey into his trap, but the prey had already become alert and run away.

This Tang Sanzang is different from what I've heard!
