We bear people have power

Guan Bo never imagined that the gentle and lovely girl would die at the hands of Red Boy. Although they only had one encounter, it was thanks to her persuasion that the Bull Demon King changed his mind, allowing Tang Sanzang and the others to be successfully rescued.

However, it was because of the departure of the Bull Demon King that only the Jade-Faced Fox remained in the Moyun Cave of Jilei Mountain, and she was naturally no match for Red Boy.

This whole thing was probably planned long ago.

Red Boy's capture of Tang Sanzang was indeed for the sake of his parents, hoping to use the incident to bring back the Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan, who had been away from home for a long time. However, he didn't intend to reason with them; instead, he planned to eliminate the Jade-Faced Fox directly.

Guan Bo didn't want to think about whether it was Red Boy's wicked scheme or Princess Iron Fan's instigation.

These days, men can have multiple wives and concubines. The Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan didn't get along, so he took a second wife. It's not exactly heinous; at most, one could only condemn him morally. As the first wife, it's understandable that Princess Iron Fan hated the Jade-Faced Fox. And Red Boy, for the sake of his parents' harmony, killing the Jade-Faced Fox seems also understandable.

Upon seeing the beautiful woman's head, Guan Bo felt that he bore a great deal of responsibility for the death of the Jade-Faced Fox, even more than others.

I don't know if this counts as excessive sympathy or Guan Bo being melodramatic, but I just can't bring myself to look directly into those sorrowful, resentful, and lifeless eyes.

If I hadn't intervened, the plot of Journey to the West would probably have unfolded as it did in the original story.

No one can answer this question, just as no one can reverse the current situation.

Red Boy landed on the ground with his head down, like a child who had done something wrong, but his face showed no regret. Perhaps in his eyes, killing the culprit who destroyed his family was worth it, even if he got a beating from the Bull Demon King. Princess Iron Fan, on the other hand, looked at the Bull Demon King with a mocking gaze, her banana leaf fan ready at any moment. If the Bull Demon King dared to punish Red Boy, she would not hesitate to blow her husband away to the ends of the earth.

As for the Jade-Faced Fox, Princess Iron Fan thought she died too late and too quickly.

Contrary to Guan Bo's expectations, the Bull Demon King did not fly into a rage. Instead, he took the Jade-Faced Princess's head from Red Boy's hands with a blank stare, as if he had lost his soul.

Guan Bo had no idea how deep the bond was between the Jade-Faced Fox and the Bull Demon King, nor what kind of memories they shared, but he had seen this expression before.

th.

That was the image of the vengeful ghost girl from Chang'an City who was murdered by a conman in love, after she learned the truth.

The Bull Demon King, cradling the head of the Jade-Faced Fox, walked out step by step, each step heavier than the last, each footprint deeper than the last. Even on the stone, the imprints remained crystal clear.

They hadn't walked more than a hundred paces when the Bull Demon King's legs sank completely into the ground. They had plowed a path through the earth, countless cracks spreading out, making it look like a giant, thousand-legged centipede from the sky. Seeing this, Red Boy wanted to pull his father back, but hesitated.

Looking back at his mother, he saw that Princess Iron Fan's face was full of furious rage, as if she felt that the Bull Demon King's actions had greatly embarrassed her and disregarded her feelings as his first wife.

The one who reacted the fastest was the Monkey King. He shoved Tang Sanzang onto the back of the white dragon horse and shouted, "Run! Run as far as you can!"

The White Dragon Horse was a clever fellow. Carrying Tang Sanzang, it galloped westward with its four hooves flying. This white dragon horse was no slower than an ordinary steed. Ao Lie saw the solemn expression on the Great Sage Equaling Heaven's face and knew things were going to go wrong. He ran with almost all his might.

Fortunately, it was a genuine precious steed, and it possessed a magical power that protected Tang Sanzang as it ran; otherwise, its speed would have surely left him behind. Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing naturally followed closely behind, and in the blink of an eye, they were out of Guan Bo's sight.

Guan Bo hadn't figured out what was going on when he turned around and found that the Bull Demon King had vanished. It turned out that he had been walking and had sunk into the ground. Only the ever-expanding, enormous crack indicated that he was still moving.

"This is troublesome, Old Bull is going crazy!" The Great Sage looked at the scene before him, a rare expression of worry on his face. Even this monkey, who fights against heaven and earth, has moments of irrationality, which shows how serious the matter is.

Guan Bo asked curiously, "Brother Monkey, what's wrong with the Bull Demon King?"

"Old Niu can't even control his feet now, he's obviously been traumatized. The death of the Jade-Faced Fox seems to have hit him hard. If he goes crazy, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop him."

As soon as the Monkey King finished speaking, the earth shook violently, so much so that Guan Bo could barely stand. Then, a long black horn burst forth from the ground. This single horn was already as thick as several people could hug, and the part protruding from the ground was already several meters long.

Immediately afterwards, another long black horn pierced through, tearing away a large swath of earth to reveal a bull's head as large as a mountain, its red eyes brimming with utter madness. White hide, black horns, and scarlet eyes—it was like a colossal beast emerging from the ancient wilderness, its mere emergence from the earth toppling countless rocks and trees.

Unable to remain on the ground any longer, Guan Bo took to the air. Red Boy also shielded his mother, seemingly shocked by the scene before him. Only the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, prepared in advance, transformed into a giant ape, grabbed the white ox's feet, and tried to pin the Bull Demon King to the ground.

While exerting his strength, the Monkey King shouted loudly, "Old Ox! Calm down!"

Unfortunately, the Bull Demon King was deaf to any of this. He kept swinging his bull head wildly, even sending the giant ape flying and smashing a small mountain peak in half.

Enraged by the giant ape's earlier actions, the Bull Demon King charged towards it, his four hooves flying. He smashed everything in his path to pieces. His horns lunged at the giant ape, but fortunately, the ape reacted quickly, its golden cudgel thickening and lengthening into a pillar reaching to the heavens, blocking the bull's head.

However, the giant ape was also pushed back more than a hundred feet by the white bull, and the small mountain that had been half collapsed was directly smashed to pieces in the struggle between the two demon saints.

The true power to move mountains and fill seas—this is the effect of the Great Sage of the Demon Race fighting with all his might.

In his frenzied state, the Bull Demon King completely disregarded his own safety, relentlessly destroying everything in his path. In his rage, he had already smashed through two mountain peaks, turning vast forests into ruins. Fortunately, the terrain of this 600-mile-long Drill Mountain range was fragmented and sparsely populated, with even few animals.

Otherwise, if the Bull Demon King went mad like that, it would have already caused a powerful earthquake, resulting in countless casualties.

The Monkey King had no intention of killing the Bull Demon King, so he hesitated to stop him and was forced to make a difficult standoff.

"Quickly go find the Bodhisattva and ask that bastard Black Bear to help us. Go to the Heavenly Palace to find Nezha and ask the Heavenly Court to send people to help us as well. Otherwise, we won't be able to stop him today, and many people will die!"

The Great Sage knew very well that if things continued, either the Bull Demon King would kill him first, or he would kill a large number of innocent people.

These words were clearly directed at Guan Bo, as he was the only one with connections on both sides who could summon people to help. Ordinary heavenly soldiers and minor demons were meaningless; they would only be sent to their deaths. Only figures of Nezha's caliber and the Black Bear Spirit could join forces with the Great Sage Equaling Heaven to subdue the maddened Bull Demon King.

Guan Bo dared not delay and rode the wind to the sky. It was too far to go to Luojia Mountain; it would be closer to go to the Heavenly Palace.

In a flash, they arrived at the South Heavenly Gate. The Giant Spirit God spotted Guan Bo from afar and immediately drew his Xuanhua Axe, determined to strike Guan Bo a hundred times, no matter what he said. Guan Bo had no time to argue with him at this moment. He unleashed his magic power and delivered a Shadowless Thunder Strike.

With a muffled boom, the giant spirit was blasted hundreds of feet away.

After entering the Southern Heavenly Gate, Guan Bo flew towards the spirit palace of the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King. Luckily for him, he encountered Nezha riding on his Wind-Fire Wheels halfway there. It turned out that Nezha had heard the thunder at the Southern Heavenly Gate and come out to investigate.

Guan Bo grabbed Nezha and said, "Third Prince, the Bull Demon King has gone mad. The Great Sage sent me to ask you for help."

Upon hearing this, Nezha asked in confusion, "What's wrong? What happened to the Bull Demon King?"

Guan Bo briefly explained the situation, and Nezha frowned upon hearing it. Each of the demon kings possessed extraordinary abilities; if the Bull Demon King were allowed to run rampant and storm into a mortal city, the result would be a massacre.

Without hesitation, he immediately summoned his token, led hundreds of heavenly soldiers and generals, and left through the South Heavenly Gate with Guan Bo.

The Giant Spirit God had just caught his breath and was about to stop Guan Bo when Nezha lashed him away with his Hun Tian Ling (a magical ribbon). At this moment, there was no time to explain, leaving the Giant Spirit God alone to sulk.

Guan Bo pointed out the direction of Drill Mountain to Nezha, but then turned around and flew towards Luojia Mountain himself. Nezha alone might not be safe enough; Guan Bo needed to ask his elder brother, the Black Bear Spirit, to come out of the mountain and help.

They sped along, and Guan Bo didn't notice how long they had been flying until he saw the familiar purple bamboo forest and then calmed down.

They hurried up the mountain, but saw no sign of human habitation on Luojia Mountain. They reached the summit, but even the Dragon Girl holding the pearl beside the Bodhisattva was nowhere to be seen. This vast Luojia Mountain was utterly deserted.

Last time, Xie Rulin told him that the Bodhisattva had led people to Mount Ling, but they hadn't returned yet. Guan Bo, however, didn't know where Mount Ling was, and dared not delay any longer. So he once again took flight on the wind towards Mount Drill. Before even reaching the foot of Mount Drill, he saw dark clouds gathering and thunder rumbling in the sky. The Great Sage Equaling Heaven and the Great God of the Three Altars and Seas, leading hundreds of elite heavenly soldiers and generals, were engaged in a fierce battle with the Bull Demon King.

The Monkey King raised his staff and struck without mercy; the Bull Demon King defiantly attacked with his horns; Nezha raised his red ribbon to bind the demon.

This battle was truly earth-shattering and awe-inspiring!

The three displayed their supernatural powers, engaging in a duel halfway up the mountain. This startled all the gods in the passing void, along with the Golden-Headed Jiedi, the Six Jia and Six Ding, and the eighteen Dharma Protectors, who all came to besiege the Demon King. The Demon King was openly fearless. You could see his two straight, shining iron horns, one to the east and one to the west, clashing back and forth; his long, hairy, veiny tail, swaying left and right.

The Bull Demon King was fearless and even seemed ready to die with them. No matter how many tricks Nezha and the Great Sage Equaling Heaven used, they couldn't restrain him.

If things continue like this, either the people will be unable to stop him, allowing the Bull Demon King to harm the common people, or the Bull Demon King will die from exhaustion; there will be no other outcome.

Guan Bo saw this, but for a moment he didn't know what to do.
