Chapter 980: Chapter 980: The Great Princess (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Purple Cloud Fairy realized the Queen Mother of the West seemed different somehow, although initially, she didn’t feel much. But now, after thinking it through, she found it even stranger.

It turned out that the relationship between the Queen Mother of the West and The Heavenly Emperor had always been ambiguous; only after merging the Nine spiritual bodies did she suddenly feel an intense aversion towards The Heavenly Emperor, which explained her anger just now.

"But this is against the rules. If The Heavenly Emperor finds out..."

"Hmph, he won’t know." The Queen Mother of the West snorted coldly, "I have already sent for that Monkey King to come. Haven’t you not seen him for quite some time? Just say I have given him a mission. If he can safely reincarnate this Outer Tao Spirit Body, I will allow your relationship to proceed."

Purple Cloud Fairy was stunned, not from shock, but from overwhelming joy—ecstatic joy!

She was so astonished she couldn’t even speak.

For how many years, countless years, she longed for this day, never imagining that the usually strict Queen Mother would change her ways when she had given up hope.

"What are you still standing there for? I reckon with the Monkey King’s speed, he should already be waiting outside the Fairyland. Why are you not going yet?"

"Yes, yes."

As Purple Cloud Fairy flew out of the Queen Mother of the West’s sleeping chamber, she almost let out a skyward howl—the piercing sound filled with unparalleled ecstasy and happiness.

Initially, it was the Queen Mother of the West who severed her and Sun Wukong’s connection, forcing them to yearn for each other but not meet all these years. And now, like the clear moon that appears after an opened sky, how could she not be elated?

Purple Cloud Fairy rushed to the outskirts of Mysterious Heaven Fairyland with the fastest speed she had ever reached in her life. Mysterious Heaven Fairyland, resembling the Queen Mother of the West’s mansion, had but a single entrance and exit: a towering gate. Without the Queen Mother’s permission, one was unable to enter through this gate; otherwise, they would be torn to shreds by the Heavenly Dao.

And there, outside the gate, Purple Cloud Fairy saw the Monkey she had been dreaming of day and night, that stinky Monkey!

"Zixia!"

Sun Wukong, now far from the appearance of the Great Sage of Heaven, didn’t say a word when he saw Purple Cloud Fairy. He lunged towards her, only to be immediately struck by a seven-colored flowing light, his body fixed in place as if hit by thunder.

"Wukong!"

Purple Cloud Fairy wanted to approach but was also blocked by the seven-colored flowing light. Then they both heard the Queen Mother of the West’s voice in their minds. Her request was simple: for Sun Wukong to take her Outer Tao Spirit Body and find someone to reincarnate it.

Naturally, Sun Wukong didn’t hesitate. Looking deeply into each other’s eyes for a moment, he then took the Queen Mother’s Outer Dao Spirit Body and transformed into a beam of golden light, shooting straight towards Chang’an City in the Tang Dynasty. Sun Wukong was extremely intelligent and always well-informed. He knew that the Queen Mother must have been influenced by the Nine spiritual bodies, breeding another Outer Tao Spirit Body to heal your wounds.

What the Queen Mother of the West didn’t know was that Sun Wukong and you were sworn brothers.

Moreover, Sun Wukong had always been watching over you, knowing that your life wasn’t in danger, so he didn’t intervene.

Now, what Sun Wukong needed to do was to swiftly have the Queen Mother’s Outer Tao Spirit Body reincarnated within Chang’an City. However, this Outer Tao Spirit Body couldn’t truly undergo rebirth. Otherwise, wouldn’t you have to wait another agonizing ten years or more?

He had been separated from Zixia for many years, and he deeply understood the pain of yearning. For this reason, Sun Wukong searched everywhere within Chang’an City. When Sun Wukong passed by a temple, a voice suddenly called out in his mind, "Wukong."

"Master?" This voice was all too familiar to Sun Wukong, for it was the very same voice that had recited the Tight-Hoop Incantation countless times, tormenting him to the brink of life and death. Sun Wukong hesitated for a moment, then flew into a hall. Atop the Great Bell Hall sat an old monk with a benevolent face, lost in deep meditation.

"Master above, please accept your disciple’s bow!" Without another word, Sun Wukong bowed deeply to the old monk.

In this world, aside from the elusive Bodhi Ancient Master and the Monk Tang who took as his duty the salvation of all beings, no one else could command such a gesture from Sun Wukong.

"Though we are master and disciple in name, there is no substance to it, so why this bow?" Monk Tang’s voice was soft, yet it clearly reached every corner of the hall.

"A day as a master is a lifetime as a father; this ritual cannot be forsaken. Moreover, if not for Master’s years of teaching, the disciple I am today would not exist." As he spoke, Sun Wukong bowed again to Monk Tang.

"Why have you come today?"

"Reporting to Master, your disciple has come in search of a young monkey from the mountains. Believing himself to possess some skills, he caused a conflict with the other monkeys on Huaguo Mountain and was scolded harshly by me. Unable to endure the scolding, the little monkey fled. Your disciple fears he may cause trouble in the Mortal World, so I have come to find him."

"Mm, since that is the case, you may go then."

"Master, take care. After your disciple retrieves the young monkey, I will come to disturb you again."

"Forget it, forget it. I feel my life has reached its end; this is likely the last time you and I, as master and disciple, will see each other."

"Master!" Upon hearing that Monk Tang would die, Sun Wukong became anxious, "Master, I will go to Taishang Laojun right away to get you a Longevity Golden Pill."

"What use is there for such worldly objects? My mission is already complete, and I will leave content. You go now, and if one day you see Wuneng and Wujing, tell them not to grieve."

"Yes." Although Sun Wukong was somewhat saddened, the thought that Monk Tang, being the reincarnation of Golden Cicada, would most certainly go to Western Heaven after his nirvana, eased his heart a great deal. He bowed once more to Monk Tang and then turned to fly away.

Sun Wukong had just left the Great Bell Hall when he overheard several monks talking, "Hey, have you heard? The Great Princess is not doing well; her illness has worsened, and it seems she will not survive the night. Such a kind person she is, it would be such a pity if she died."

"Ah, hopefully, she can pull through this ordeal. May Buddha bless her, Amitabha."

A glint appeared in Sun Wukong’s eyes, and soon a trace of joy spread across his face.

Sun Wukong, using his invisibility, sneaked into the Great Princess’s sleeping chamber. He saw a beautiful woman, sick and silent upon her bed, with two maids kneeling beside her—they had likely fallen asleep from exhaustion. With a sharp eye, Sun Wukong noticed that the Great Princess was actually nearing death; perhaps in another hour or two, she would forever depart this world in her sleep.

Interestingly, the Great Princess bore a resemblance to Wu Zhao.

Sun Wukong slowly infused the Seven-Color Light Sphere into the body of the Great Princess. As the light sphere fully entered her, the body of the Great Princess glowed with a seven-colored radiance.

Since the Great Princess had not fully died, her soul still resided within her body. However, her soul was incredibly weak due to her impending death, and it was soon merged with the Outer Tao Spirit Body from the Queen Mother of the West. About a quarter of an hour later, the Great Princess slowly opened her eyes.
