Chapter 275: The Great Luo Immortal and the Chess Piece

Wanku Mountain.

"Humei, let me introduce you; this is Holy Monk Xuanzang, my friend," Yang Chan said.

Humei fixed her gaze on Xuanzang, her eyes lighting up, and she thought to herself:

"What a handsome man!"

"And I can't see through him at all!"

Humei was no minor demon; she was a Great Demon King in her own right, and her cultivation of the Chan Sect technique, the Heaven-Splitting Divine Palm, had reached an extremely profound level, far beyond what Wuge could compare to.

Because Humei had a simple nature and never involved herself in the affairs of the Three Realms, very few people knew of her.

"Greetings, Holy Monk," Humei said politely.

Moreover, she found Xuanzang somewhat familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before.

Wuge had known the former Jinchanzi, and naturally, Humei had known him too, but too much time had passed, and her memory was hazy.

"No need for formalities. Although you hail from the Demon Race, your profound Taoism cultivation is deep; it seems you are not far from attaining the Dao," Xuanzang said.

"I am merely of the Demon Race, so what hope is there for attaining the Dao? If I can just pass this life in peace, that is enough," Humei said.

"Did you hear that, Wuge? If you stir up trouble again, I will not spare you."

Yang Chan glared at Wuge, which made Wuge feel immense pressure.

Facing Yang Chan, who possessed the Lotus Lantern, Wuge had no options at all; he simply could not defeat her.

"Three Holy Mother, I have learned my lesson. Look at my upright aura; how could I possibly do anything to wrong Humei?" Wuge said.

"Going back on one's word will lead to being struck by lightning," Xuanzang said.

"..." Wuge.

"Sister Yang, let's go sit in our cave dwelling," Humei invited.

"Very well," Yang Chan gladly agreed.

Immediately, the three of them entered the Fox Cave of Wanku Mountain.

Not far away, Sun Wukong, Bajie, Xiaobailong, and Heixiong appeared.

"Have the demons of this era become so formidable?" Sun Wukong said.

He had just taken a look with his Fiery Eyes, only to discover that the magic power of both Humei and Wuge was very strong.

Especially that female fox; Sun Wukong felt he might not necessarily be able to win steadily.

"Houzi, the times have changed," Bajie said with a hint of melancholy.

"Go away, you fool, you're annoying to death."

Sun Wukong kicked Bajie.

"Dead monkey, but since Yang Chan is so close to Master, I wonder what expression that sister-obsessed Yang Jian will have when he finds out?"

Bajie rubbed his backside, a mischievous smile appearing on his face.

"Let him find out. With our Master's skills and magic power, Yang Jian is nothing but someone he can handle with a flick of his hand," Sun Wukong said.

Bajie shook his head and said leisurely:

"Houzi, you underestimate Yang Jian too much. He is a genuine disciple of the Chan Sect, ranked first among the third generation, and the existence with the most hope of entering the Great Luo Realm.

Besides, this is five hundred years later; with Yang Jian's talent, after five hundred years of cultivation, his cultivation level is definitely stronger than yours, since you haven't cultivated in five hundred years."

"Bajie, what do you mean by that?" Sun Wukong asked.

He had to admit that Yang Jian was indeed very powerful, with deep magic power.

But it was not that he couldn't catch up, and the gap was not that large.

"Without entering the Great Luo Realm, one is ultimately just a chess piece, Houzi," Zhu Bajie said.

"You fool, you only know how to talk; I don't see you working hard either," Sun Wukong said.

"Houzi, in this life, I am in a pig's body with terrible natural aptitude; what can I do?"

"Besides, there are so many chess pieces in the Three Realms; why can't it be me?

Being a chess piece properly is actually not bad," Bajie feigned nonchalance, but there was still some unwillingness in his eyes.

"Hmph, I don't believe it," Sun Wukong said proudly.

Inside the cave dwelling.

Yang Chan and Humei were chatting about daily life.

Wuge and Xuanzang sat to the side, with Wuge appearing significantly more reserved.

His eyes darted around, clearly brewing some mischief.

"If you have something to say, just say it," Xuanzang transmitted his voice.

Wuge's expression changed slightly, and he transmitted back:

"Holy Monk, this little fox wants to inquire about someone from you."

"Who?" Xuanzang said.

"Tang Sanzang!" Wuge whispered, fearing discovery by Humei and the Three Holy Mother.

"Why are you inquiring about him?" Xuanzang asked.

"Holy Monk, you may not know, but that Tang Sanzang is the Imperial Brother of the Tang King and the reincarnation of the high monk of Buddhism, Jinchanzi. It is rumored that eating a piece of his flesh can grant immortality and even allow one to avoid the Heavenly Tribulation," Wuge said.

Clearly, at this moment, Wuge had not realized that Xuanzang was the reincarnation of Jinchanzi.

Nor had he realized that Xuanzang was Tang Sanzang!

"Could it be that you want to eat Tang Seng's flesh?" Xuanzang's expression changed slightly, and an invisible deterrent force was released.

Wuge hurriedly shook his head and explained:

"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare. I, this little fox, have turned over a new leaf. Furthermore, Holy Monk, you are also a member of Buddhism; how could I dare to do anything detrimental to Tang Sanzang? That would be offending you."

"My daughter was just born, born a demon. It is not easy for the Demon Race to practice, and her life will be full of bumps and too many disasters."

"As a father, I, a little fox, would like to ask this Sanzang Master to pray for some blessings for my daughter."

"Really?" Xuanzang said.

"Of course it's true, heaven and earth are my witness, I guarantee it with my conscience."

Wuge said, his emotions agitated.

"I see. I do know Tang San, and I am acquainted with him. If you want to see him, I can choose a time for you to meet."

Xuanzang said, not revealing that he himself was Tang San.

"Really?" A look of surprise appeared on Wuge's face.

"A monk does not tell lies," Xuanzang said.

"Thank you, thank you." Wuge bowed in gratitude.

Xuanzang's action was also to test Wuge, to test whether this fellow had truly turned over a new leaf.

On the other side, Yang Chan and Humei walked over.

"Xuanzang, Humei would like to trouble you with something," Yang Chan said.

"Let me hear it," Xuanzang said warmly.

"Holy Monk, I would like to ask you to bestow a name upon this little demon's daughter," Humei said with a sincere expression.

"You are the parents, how can I name your child?" Xuanzang said.

"We are demons, abandoned by heaven and earth, burdened with heavy disasters. You are a Holy Monk; if you name this child, she will surely have the protection of your blessings. In the end, it is we who are taking advantage of you," Humei said.

"Humei is right, Holy Monk, please do us this favor. If you are willing, would you also be this child's godfather?" Wuge said.

"..." Xuanzang.

Xuanzang carefully examined the infant still in swaddling clothes. The child was very cute, making milky sounds, and her little face was as exquisite as jade. He said:

"Since that is the case, let's call her Xiaoyu. I hope that in the future, she can be as pure and flawless as jade, intelligent and kind."

"Xiaoyu."

Upon hearing this name, Humei felt it was excellent, as if it were a destiny ordained by the unseen.

"Xiaoyu."

Wuge also grinned happily. As expected of a Holy Monk, this name sounded extraordinary the moment one heard it.

"Truly a good name."

Yang Chan smiled, happy for Humei.

She thought of herself, wondering when she would be able to have a child of her own?

This was likely just an extravagant hope. As an Immortal, it was fundamentally impossible to stir up mortal desires and raise offspring.

After hearing her name, Xiaoyu also laughed happily, like an angel.

Night.

Xuanzang was a guest at Wanku Mountain, and Humei and Yang Chan were preparing dinner.

Wuge, meanwhile, left Wanku Mountain to go to a mysterious location to meet Tang San.

Chat Group, private channel.

Demon Queen: "Xuanzang, come over here quickly and take a look, help us deduce this new algorithm."

Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "..., is it that urgent? Besides, it's useless for me to go. I practice Immortal Cultivation, and you all practice technology; the paths don't align."

Demon Queen: "It doesn't matter, just come and offer some advice. What if it works?"

Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "I give up on you, Diliu!"

After a moment of thought, Xuanzang decided to go and see the Technology Cultivation algorithm that Morgana and the others were working on.
