Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything
Chapter 922 - 922: Has Old Pig already graduated?

Regarding leveling up, actually, before Randeng redrew the Spirit Mountain instance for me, the leveling speed was really slow.

It often took billions, tens of billions of experience points just to level up, which was indeed too slow.

It wasn't until the new Spirit Mountain instance was drawn that my leveling speed started to feel like it was on a freeway.

Can the leveling speed in this Illusionary Demon Cave compare to that of clearing my own instance?

Actually, Jiang Liu was quite satisfied in his heart.

Gaoyang couldn't bring himself to do it, Xueyu also couldn't bring himself to do it, but as for Master Golden Cicada...

"I'll make you a towering tree, crushing me!"

"I'll make you drag me into dreams every now and then, trying to strangle me!"

"Let's see now, who kills whom!"

...

Even though Jiang Liu knew well that this Master Golden Cicada before him was conjured by the Illusionary Demon Cave, not real.

But these days the resentment he had toward Master Golden Cicada completely exploded at this moment, only making him feel free and extremely satisfied.

Maybe he would farm Master Golden Cicada to the point of vomiting in the future.

But at least now, he felt utterly delightful.

Under Jiang Liu's attack, although possessing a higher level, Master Golden Cicada was still suppressed by Jiang Liu.

As the saying goes, no matter how strong the BOSS is, if you farm it multiple times, you get completely accustomed and will handle it easily.

Moreover, in front of Jiang Liu, this Master Golden Cicada didn't even qualify as a BOSS.

Jiang Liu, having been through the matters of Gaoyang and Xueyu, finally felt he could properly farm monsters and earn money in the Illusionary Demon Cave.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Zhu Bajie also understood that his behavior in the past few days had indeed made several senior brothers quite dissatisfied.

Thus, after the three female demons were chased away, he did manage to have some peaceful days, engaging in monster farming and leveling up together in the Exquisite Immortal Mansion.

However, after about half a month, one night, as Zhu Bajie lay in bed tossing and turning, he couldn't help but reminisce about the days of sleeping under one big quilt, feeling empty, lonely, and cold.

Unable to sleep, he glanced at the bright moonlight outside the window, suddenly getting up, grabbing a jar of wine and a dish of peanuts, then walking out of the Exquisite Immortal Mansion.

Sitting down on a patch of grass, he drank a little wine, ate a few peanuts, and raised his head to look at the bright moonlight in the sky.

With a soft murmur, Zhu Bajie said, "Fairy Chang'e, it's been many years, I wonder how you're doing in the Moon Palace? Have you ever thought of me, Old Pig?"

"Alas, in this lifetime, the woman I love most is you. Ever since I met you, Old Pig lost the ability to fall in love with anyone else!"

Staring at the moon in the sky, pondering about Chang'e, Zhu Bajie suddenly felt his wind-catching ears twitch, faintly hearing bouts of singing from far away?

It seemed to be a very clear female voice.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Bajie's heart moved slightly, preparing to investigate.

However, recalling how he was fetched back by his elder brothers recently, his footsteps paused slightly, perhaps he should not go?

But he only hesitated for about two breaths, before quickly striding towards the direction of the singing.

"Hmm, Old Pig isn't going to approach women, just applying what I've learned, trying out the things recorded in the Love Treasure Mirror, these were taught by my master! Of course, I can't let them go to waste!"

After finding a suitable reason for himself, Zhu Bajie felt even more justified.

Following the singing, after walking for about several miles, Zhu Bajie found himself arriving at a pond.

The bright moonlight caused the pond to shimmer, by the water's edge a woman dressed in a white silk dress bent over, her head lowered, with long black hair drifting into the pond. The woman held a sandalwood comb, gently combing her hair while softly singing.

"So beautiful!"

Upon seeing the woman by the pond, Zhu Bajie's eyes suddenly widened intensely, almost drooling.

"Who is it?" Zhu Bajie, drawn by the woman, stepped out, causing the woman to startle upon hearing movement.

"Huh? You are? Zhu Bajie!?" When the woman saw Zhu Bajie, she exclaimed in surprise.

"Huh? You recognize Old Pig?" Hearing the woman's words, Zhu Bajie himself was astonished.

"I was originally a little fairy in the Heavenly Court and had witnessed the Marshal's elegance. Back then, when the Marshal pursued Fairy Chang'e unsuccessfully and was cast down to the Mortal World, such a devoted man left me, left me…" Saying this, the woman's face blushed slightly, seemingly embarrassed to continue.

"Left you how?" Zhu Bajie stepped forward, reaching out to grasp the woman's soft hand, gazing deeply into her eyes.

"The Marshal's devotion deeply touched this little woman, making me feel that if I could meet a man like the Marshal in this lifetime, it would be worth dying for…" The woman lowered her head, yet gently leaned against Zhu Bajie's embrace, speaking softly.

"Don't worry, I will take good care of you!" Feeling the woman lean into his arms voluntarily, Zhu Bajie solemnly said.

"Ever since I met you, I feel like I've lost the ability to love anyone else!"

"Really?" The woman leaning into Zhu Bajie's embrace showed a happy expression on her face.

Without any hesitation, Zhu Bajie lifted the woman horizontally and turned towards the little grove nearby.

After some time in the rain and clouds, Zhu Bajie lay satisfied on the grass in the grove, while the woman gently nestled in his arms.

"By the way, I still don't know your name." Only then did Zhu Bajie remember he hadn't yet asked for her name, so he asked.

"My name is Xiaoyun!" The woman softly replied.

"Xiaoyun, noted. I will remember your name for the rest of my life!" Zhu Bajie earnestly nodded.

"Really?" Xiaoyun said softly, joyful.

"Of course it's true, my Old Pig is an honest man, never lies or deceives anyone!" Zhu Bajie said with a very serious tone.

Sweet talk, along with those rustic romantic lines he remembered, holding the woman in his arms, they looked so deeply in love, wishing they could never be apart.

"As expected, Master's skills in wooing women are truly unparalleled..."

Feeling the deep affection from the woman in his arms, Zhu Bajie secretly marveled in his heart, even more admiring Master's extraordinary skills in wooing women.

On their journey, countless female demons, and even queens, sought to be with Master eagerly, which made him so envious his mouth almost watered.

Following Master on this Journey to the West for so many years, he had been humbly learning the art of charming women and even compiled a "Love Treasure Mirror".

Now, did the skills he learned finally pay off?

Not only did he easily woo three female demons the other day, now even little fairies came to him willingly?

Thinking back to the first encounter with Master, he had pursued Second Sister Luan from Yunzhai Cave for so long without success.

What visible growth and progress this shows.

In the days to come, Zhu Bajie would sneak out every night to engage in passionate escapades with Xiaoyun.

However, since the three female demons were chased away last time, Zhu Bajie learned his lesson, sneaking out every night and returning before dawn.

He thought he was being discreet, believing he hadn't been discovered.

But, Sun Wukong and the others weren't blind.

One day, after dinner, Zhu Bajie tossed his bowl aside and yawned theatrically, claiming he had spent all day on a mission and was tired, thus would return to his room to rest.

"Hey, Bajie, we haven't played Mahjong for a while, want to join us?" But seeing Zhu Bajie heading to his room to rest, Sun Wukong invited him.

"Nah, next time, Monkey Brother, I'm really tired today, let Xiaobai join you, it's the same..." Thinking of the plan to watch stars with Xiaoyun, Zhu Bajie declined, shaking his head.

Having said this, Zhu Bajie returned to his room and closed the door.

Holding his breath, he listened intently.

Outside, Sun Wukong commented on Zhu Bajie's luck in gambling, wondering why he wasn't playing.

Then, bringing Xiaobai in, four people started playing.

Xiaobai changed into human form, along with Good Corpse, making four players just right.

Listening to the sound of Mahjong tiles shuffling outside, Zhu Bajie smiled knowingly, then jumped out of his window, quickly vanishing into the night.

"That fool Bajie sneaked away again..." Sitting around the Mahjong table, Sun Wukong, while shuffling the tiles, was watching all directions, sensing Bajie jumping out and leaving, he remarked.

With Sun Wukong's words, Sha Wujing and White Dragon also turned their eyes toward Good Corpse.

At this moment, without Master, everyone instinctively considered Good Corpse's words as Master's will.

"Hmm, no problem..."

But under Sun Wukong, Sha Wujing, and Little White Dragon's watch, Good Corpse appeared unconcerned, shaking his head, saying: "As long as Bajie doesn't neglect his mission duties, whatever he does otherwise is his own freedom!"

Yes, it's like in reality, as long as in school you study well, teachers' assignments are completed diligently, what you play during ordinary times naturally shouldn't be too restricted.

Regarding why Zhu Bajie jumps out and what he does at night, Good Corpse also understands perfectly well.

Yet, as the saying goes, Dayu Controlling Water, prevention is better than blockage.

With Zhu Bajie's character, to keep him away from beauty?

That's simply impossible!

Since it's impossible, why bother controlling?

They say not to fight for Sun Wukong, when facing trouble, talk instead of clash, is that feasible?
