All the heavens began with Huo Yi

"Fallen leaves! Sweep them up!"

Yin Hu brandished his broadsword, swung it around, and swept it towards Su Er.

when!

The clang of metal rang out, and Yin Hu's hand went numb from the impact of Su Er's bronze head and iron arm.

Seizing the opportunity, Suer skillfully used his staff to lift Yin Hu into the air. However, this was no small feat. Suer had already transformed into a human form and kicked at Yin Hu.

Then several clones took turns kicking Yin Hu three times in the air, and finally one of the clones kicked Yin Hu back to Su Er's side.

Did Tiger lose?

wrong!

Yin Hu was acting. He swooped down from the air and, as he approached Su Er's true form, he swung his greatsword horizontally, unleashing a crimson blade aura that swept fiercely towards Su Er.

Seeing the incoming blade energy, Su Er had no choice but to abandon his attack. He twirled his staff, disrupting Yin Hu's offensive.

However, as soon as the blade energy was shattered, Yin Hu disappeared from sight, and then a blade fell on Su Er's head.

"Again? You can't rely on one trick forever!"

Yin Hu's knife failed to strike Su Er. Su Er simply stepped on his tiptoe and turned around to dodge the blow. He then twirled the stick around his waist, changing his grip from a backhand to a fronthand grip.

The stick was thrust forward, striking Yin Hu's stabbing point, and it actually passed right through him.

Suer was stunned. "This is a clone?"

"Too green, little monkey! Cloud Cleave!" Yin Hu's true form reappeared, but this time he swept his broadsword horizontally.

"Interesting. I underestimated you, big cat!"

With a smile, Su Er pressed down on Yin Hu's broadsword from a distance. Yin Hu's sweeping broadsword suddenly became a hundred times heavier, causing Yin Hu to lose his grip and fall to the ground.

Suer grabbed the end of the stick, turned around and swept it. Yin Hu saw that the sword was still on the ground, so he could only raise his arm armor to block the blow.

Despite being protected by his arm armor, some of the force of the blow still penetrated, causing Yin Hu to feel a muscle injury. Enduring the pain, Yin Hu swiftly wrapped his arm around Su Er's stick, using his hand, arm, and armpit as a lever to firmly grip Su Er's stick.

Certainly!

Seeing that he couldn't pull the stick out for the time being, Su Er could only use a freezing spell to immobilize Yin Hu. Then, using the stick as a spring, he kicked Yin Hu.

However, the moment Suer kicked Yin Hu, Yin Hu vanished again and reappeared in another location.

Yin Hu's large sword remained where it was, but he showed no intention of taking it back. Instead, he returned to the chopping block and said, "Hmph, unorthodox methods. Such a weapon is unworthy of my martial arts. Take it."

Su Er smiled and picked up Yin Hu's Xuan Tie Greatsword, saying, "Brother Yin Hu is indeed skilled in martial arts, swift as a shooting star, truly remarkable."

“You’re much better at talking than he is,” Yin Hu laughed. “Take off your armor, and I’ll forge it for you again.”

"Ah? No, no, this is the only set of clothes I have!" Su Er shook his head repeatedly upon hearing Yin Hu's words.

He only has this one set of clothes. Usually, when they get dirty, he just cleans them and then puts them back on, so he never thinks about changing them. If he takes off these clothes today, he'll have nothing to wear and he'll be completely naked.

“Sigh~” Yin Hu sighed, “How can you be so shabby? You’ve never even bought a cloth coat? Never mind, I’ll go find the old cloak that the monkey asked me to alter.”

As he spoke, Yin Hu went into the storeroom behind him and rummaged around for a while before coming back with a dusty box in his arms.

Yin Hu took a hammer, struck the lock on the box, and then opened the box and took out a cloak.

"The Xuan Tie Armor, Xuan Tie Armor and Leg Armor, and a double-horned helmet. He brought this set to me for alterations back in Yuan Chen Palace, but I didn't have time to return it to that monkey. Giving it to you today won't be a waste of my craftsmanship." Yin Hu pushed the box to Su Er.

"New!" Suer grinned and picked up the box, then happily ran off to change his clothes.

"Hey, it's not even New Year's yet! My dear nephew has already gotten a new set of clothes. Can someone give me one too?" Pigsy couldn't help but sigh as he watched his son happily change his clothes.

Kang Jinxingjun looked at Su Er's happy smile and then glanced thoughtfully at Yin Hu.

A short while later, Suer appeared in everyone's sight, dressed in a new outfit and looking quite smug.

After spinning around once, who wouldn't praise him as the Monkey King?

Kang Jinxing was the first to approach Su Er, and after taking Su Er's arm, he praised, "With your new clothes, Su Lang looks even more dashing and refined, with an imposing presence."

"Hey, they flirt all the time, really." Pigsy, carrying a rake, circled around Su'er like an old man, clicking his tongue twice. "She's only slightly less attractive than I was back in my day, but even that figure is enough to attract attention. Back in the day, when I was in heaven, those palace maids and fairies..."

Su'er ignored Bajie's reminiscences of those glorious years and instead handed over the bronze brocade battle robe he had worn earlier to Yinhu.

Looking at Suer dressed in this outfit, Yin Hu perhaps thought of an old friend from years ago, and chuckled, saying, "Come back and get it in a few days. You can rest assured about my craftsmanship."

“I have complete confidence in Brother Yin Hu’s craftsmanship,” Su Er said. How could he not trust Yin Hu’s skills? The outfit he was wearing right now was a treasure, no less than the brocade cassock that Guanyin Bodhisattva gave to Tang Sanzang.

Chenlong then suggested, "Alright, alright, let's put this aside for now. Let's all get together today and have a good drink."

When Pigsy heard that there was wine to drink, he shouted, "Great! I'll go call Dog! I'll go call Dog!"

"I'll go get a few jars of that drunkard's wine; he won't notice," Chenlong said, and went to steal the wine.

Yin Hu put down the bronze brocade battle robe and said, "I'll go move the table. You and Xingjun go pick some pears, fire dates, and green lotus roots."

After saying that, Yin Hu also ran off to get busy.

At a banquet, amidst the clinking of glasses and lively conversation, Pigsy, unusually, got drunk again, slumped over the stone table, muttering something to himself.

Tiger and Dog played a drinking game, using some small turnips as stakes, and shouted loudly.

Chenlong, on the other hand, was always smiling, occasionally taking a sip of wine or serving some food to his brothers.

Kang Jin's face was flushed from drinking, which added to his radiance, but he was still very clear-headed. He wondered why the person next to him, who was so close to him, had only drunk so little.

If you don't drink too much, how can you break through the thin paper and go further?

Okay, let's get closer. It wouldn't be bad to rest my head on his back.

"What amazing cooking skills! This is awesome!" Su Er exclaimed excitedly, burying his head in his food and occasionally glancing up at the smiling head chef, Chen Long.

"Eat slowly, eat slowly, there's more if you're not full." Chenlong rarely seemed this happy.

Drinking and eating with my old buddies, and with two younger relatives around, it felt quite like being at home.
