A Tale of Encounters with Immortals: A Peach Blossom Temple in the Martial World

Guanyin Bodhisattva was very upset.

Zhang Zhengdao stood in front of her, and she didn't even have a chance to make a move, because she couldn't move at all. Her whole body seemed to be imprisoned by the Taoist's words.

"ban!"

The word that Zhang Zhengdao uttered softly seemed to come from outside the Heavenly Dao of the primordial universe, causing Guanyin Bodhisattva to instantly lose all her abilities.

“I know you’re unwilling to accept this. The Buddhist sect has been planning the journey to the West to obtain the scriptures for so long, and it can’t be abandoned halfway because of Sun Wukong. But the significance of the journey to obtain the scriptures is not only about obtaining the scriptures, but also about saving people. If Sun Wukong saves Bai Jingjing, then the significance of the journey to obtain the scriptures for Sun Wukong is enough.”

As Zhang Zhengdao spoke, he took a step forward and suddenly disappeared into the South China Sea Purple Bamboo Forest.

As Zhang Zhengdao left, Guanyin Bodhisattva finally felt a sense of relief, and cold sweat broke out all over her body.

This is not a technique of the Heavenly Way, but a technique derived from the Great Way.

What Sun Wukong does is no longer important; what matters is whether the Journey to the West can continue.

Water Curtain Cave.

The spirit of Supreme Treasure finally reached out to the golden headband.

"Bai Jingjing, wait for me!"

He carefully put the golden headband on his head.

The moment the golden headband stuck to his head, a burst of radiant light emanated from it, as if in resonance with heaven and earth. A beam of golden light shot directly out of the Water Curtain Cave and soared into the sky, illuminating the entire sky with extraordinary brilliance.

Looking at the golden light in the sky, Fairy Zixia said, "With such immense magical power and overwhelming might, who is this?"

Suddenly, the pig-headed monster next to him pointed at the golden light and turned to look at the monk: "Master, this is the eldest brother."

The curly-haired giant nodded: "Master, our eldest brother has ascended to heaven."

The handsome monk also looked at the golden light in the sky and said, "Amitabha, golden light is just golden light. Senior Brother is your Senior Brother. The golden light soared into the sky, but it doesn't mean your Senior Brother went to the sky. If one day your Senior Brother wants to go to the sky, it certainly won't be when the golden light goes to the sky..."

Zixia couldn't hold back any longer.

She walked up to the handsome monk.

"Hey, monk!"

The handsome monk looked at Zixia and said, “Female benefactor, my name isn’t ‘Wei’ monk, it’s Tang Sanzang. Since I’ve told you my name is Tang Sanzang, you should call me Tang Sanzang, not ‘Wei’ monk. Besides, although I’m a monk, my surname isn’t ‘Wei.’ Since ancient times, no one with the surname ‘Wei’ has ever become a monk. So I’m sure you’ve mistaken me for someone else. But it doesn’t matter. I’ve already told you my name is Tang Sanzang, and I’ve known you for a long time. So could you please stop calling me ‘Wei’ monk? Next time you greet me… Ouch, you hit my eye… Ouch, you hit another one…”

Tang Sanzang's eyes were both black and blue.

Zixia snapped, "Shut up!"

Tang Sanzang: "You tell me to shut up, and I shut up? You don't tell me to shut up... Ouch... You hit me again..."

Zixia drew her sword: "If you keep babbling, I'll kill you."

The pig-headed monster charged forward with a rake, blocking Tang Sanzang's path and saying, "Don't hit my master! Brother Sha, hit her!"

The curly-haired giant said, "I need to watch the load. You go ahead."

The pig-headed monster roared, "Don't you even listen to your senior brother anymore?"

The curly-haired monster said, "I only listen to what my senior brother says."

Pig-headed monster: "Since the eldest brother isn't here, I am the eldest brother..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden light that shot into the sky suddenly drew a rainbow in the sky before falling rapidly to the ground.

"Ah—the golden light is falling! Everyone, run for your lives!"

Tang Sanzang shouted, waving his hand at the pig-headed monster and the curly-haired giant: "Quickly carry your master and run for your lives!"

"It's Senior Brother!" the pig-headed monster exclaimed in surprise.

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden light descended in their direction.

"boom--"

The ground shook, and the golden light suddenly descended onto the ground, even causing the earthen wall to collapse.

"Wow--"

Someone shouted from the other side of the earthen wall.

"What a huge, furry monkey!"

"Wearing golden armor, he's probably a monster!"

"Ah? A monster is coming! Run!"

The group of merchants who were about to come in and settle down immediately scattered like birds and beasts, disappearing without a trace.

Standing here now, besides the pig-headed monster, the curly-haired giant, and Tang Sanzang, there is also a beautiful woman carrying a purple and green sword.

"Master!"

The monkey, wearing a golden headband and carrying a golden cudgel, casually slung the cudgel over his shoulder and addressed the handsome monk in a casual manner.

Tang Sanzang clasped his hands together: "Wukong, you're back. Just now, a golden light fell from the sky. I don't know if you saw it. After the golden light fell to the ground, you appeared. But I don't know if that golden light was you, or you were that golden light. So... can you tell your master the answer? You..."

"Oh!"

The monkey punched the monk in the face, and the monk immediately fell straight down, unconscious.

"Now it's clean!"

The monkey twirled the golden cudgel in his hand a few times, tilted his head, and looked at Fairy Zixia.

"Fairy Zixia?"

Zixia looked at him coldly: "It's me!"

"Senior Brother, you killed Master!" the curly-haired giant screamed.

The monkey turned and glared at the curly-haired giant, frowning. "Before I lose my temper, quickly drag this monk away and stop his babbling, or I can't guarantee I won't beat him to death with a stick."

The pig-headed monster quickly said, "Senior Brother, aren't you afraid of Guanyin Bodhisattva..."

"Heh, you're bringing up Guanyin Bodhisattva again. Don't think I won't dare to hit you!"

The monkey bared its teeth and glared angrily at the pig-headed monster.

The pig-headed monster was startled and quickly carried the monk away as fast as it could.

They vanished in a flash, I don't know where they went.

The monkey watched his two junior brothers carry their master away into the distance before turning around to look at Fairy Zixia. He tilted his head and smiled frivolously like a rogue, saying, "Fairy Zixia... I want to borrow something from you now. I think you would be happy to lend it to me, wouldn't you?"

Zixia Fairy looked at him and shook her head: "I won't lend it to you."

The monkey wasn't angry. It said with a grin, "You refused without even asking what I wanted to borrow. Don't regret it..." As it spoke, it twirled the stick in its hand a few times, making a whooshing sound.

Zixia Fairy looked at the monkey: "A furry monkey who even knocked out his master. This kind of immoral, arrogant, and scoundrel-like demon, do you think I would lend you anything?"

Are you sure... you don't want to lend it?

The monkey looked at Fairy Zixia with a mocking expression once again.

"After I, Old Sun, wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace for five hundred years, does my reputation seem outdated? Am I no longer respected? Or do I need to establish my authority so that people will recognize me, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Sun Wukong, again?"

As he spoke, he brandished his golden cudgel a few more times, staring intently at Fairy Zixia.

Zixia tilted her head and looked at the monkey, asking, "You... are you really the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong?"

The monkey laughed loudly, and as it laughed, tears welled up in its eyes. It seemed so funny that it couldn't control its emotions and became somewhat hysterical.

The laughter abruptly stopped.

Do you think there's another person who would dare to call themselves the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Sun Wukong?

The monkey looked at Fairy Zixia with arrogance.

Zixia Fairy pouted.

"It's because he was suppressed by the Buddha for five hundred years."

monkey:……

Stunned, he is now most annoyed by people bringing up this shameful past of his.

"That was a trick by that old Buddha!"

Zixia: "You've been imprisoned for five hundred years, and it still took a mortal monk to rescue you."

The monkey's eyes were bloodshot, its grip on the golden cudgel was tight, and its fur stood on end, as if it could smash the woman in front of it into a pulp with just a spark.

Zixia ignored him and continued, "It's one thing to rescue him, but he actually obediently followed Buddha's arrangements to protect the monk on his journey to retrieve the scriptures. He even put a golden headband on him, and his head would ache whenever he chanted a spell."

"Stop talking—"

Zixia insisted, "Protecting the monks on their journey to the Western Paradise is one thing, but they couldn't even protect a woman five hundred years from now, tsk tsk... How can a human be so pathetic... no, how can a monkey be so pathetic..."

"court death!"

Without warning, the monkey's golden cudgel slammed down towards Zixia.

Zixia dodged in a flash, and the Purple-Green Sword transformed into a bright light, piercing towards the monkey.

There was a "ding" sound.

The sword tip pierced the golden cudgel, and both of them trembled simultaneously, showing that they were evenly matched.

"You stinky monkey, you resort to violence when you can't win an argument?"

Zixia didn't forget to make sarcastic remarks.

The monkey was furious, and his golden cudgel swept towards Fairy Zixia like the wind, with thousands of cudgel shadows sweeping down towards her from the sky.

Zixia tossed the Purple-Green Sword into the air and shouted, "Transform!"

Instantly, thousands of purple and green swords rushed towards the shadow of the staff, and for a moment, the air was filled with the clanging sounds of swords and staff clashing.

This fierce battle raged from daylight until sunset.

Zixia used the momentum of the sword to leap out of the circle.

"Monkey, that's enough for today. We'll fight again tomorrow."

Monkey: "Are you scared?"

Zixia sneered: "What am I afraid of? I won't be here tonight; it's my sister Qingxia. Qingxia has no grudge against you, so there's no need to make a move."

The monkey laughed loudly: "Qingxia killed me, do you think I would let her go?"

Zixia shook her head: "Even if you have some skills, you're still a bit short of killing Qingxia."

The monkey laughed loudly: "Alright, I'll kill her when it gets dark, and I hope to see you again when it gets light tomorrow."
