Chapter 333: Xuanzang, You Have More Face Than a Saint
Chat Group.
Scripture Seeker: "Punching the Dao Ancestor, kicking the Eastern Emperor—Ye Heizi, do you really think I'm invincible?"
Number One Golden Core of the Nine Provinces: "Hahaha!"
Ancestral Mo Nv Houtu: "Smiling face (emoji)"
Axe Gang Leader: "Master, a person must have dreams."
Scripture Seeker: "……"
Immortal King Anlan: "Xuan Ge, I support you."
Demon Queen: "Xuanzang, don't be a coward. What if it actually comes true?"
Diviner: "Others might not be able to, but if it is Holy Monk Xuanzang, it might just be possible."
Spring and Autumn Sword Deity: "Agreed!"
Playboy: "Big Brother Xuanzang is an existence skilled at creating miracles."
Na Du Tong Backbone Feng Baobao: "Eating melons, eating melons."
One Sword Qing'er: "Look at life and death with indifference; if you aren't convinced, just fight!"
Scripture Seeker: "Stop fanning the flames, you all."
Qingqiu Empress: "Holy Monk Xuanzang, I have high hopes for you."
Spirit Hall Pope: "Brother Xuanzang, keep it up."
Scripture Seeker: "Slipping away, slipping away."
After leaving behind this sentence, Xuanzang's consciousness temporarily returned to his physical body.
At this moment, the master and disciples had already finished walking up the thousand-layer stairs and saw the Daoist temple situated in the distance.
Although the Daoist temple was simple and unadorned, it gave people a sense of peace and purity.
Above the curling incense smoke and blue clouds, one could even see immortal cranes dancing and apes crying within the mist.
"Coming here, my soul seems to have been purified," Bajie said.
"This Wuzhuang Temple has something special."
Sun Wukong felt as if he had returned to the days of learning arts at Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, only it was a pity that the past could not be chased.
Just as they arrived at the entrance of Wuzhuang Temple, the gate made of sandalwood slowly moved aside.
An old man wearing a Daoist robe walked out from within, and there were two little Daoist acolytes beside him.
This old man had black hair and a black beard, held a horsetail whisk in his hand, and possessed an aura of the Tao, his presence feeling ancient and distant.
"This poor Daoist calculated with his fingers that today, friends have come from afar," the old man said.
"Zhenyuan Daxian, this old pig pays his respects."
Bajie hurriedly bowed, maintaining respect.
He had not expected to be able to see the real body of the Ancestor of Earth Immortals; this was different from what he had anticipated.
One had to know that the news he received from Taishang Laojun was that Zhenyuanzi had left Wuzhuang Temple at the invitation of Yuanshi Tianzun.
This did not match the script!
Xuanzang also bowed and said:
"Namo Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!"
"Hahaha, an old friend is as humorous as ever."
Zhenyuanzi laughed, looking quite amiable.
Sun Wukong, Heixiong, Xiaobailong, and Shaseng also bowed one after another.
"Enter the temple; this poor Daoist has already prepared immortal fruits to entertain you all," Zhenyuanzi said.
"Many thanks, Great Immortal," Xuanzang said.
Following this, the group entered Wuzhuang Temple.
Chat Group.
Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "This isn't right. This doesn't match Journey to the West? At this time, wasn't Zhenyuanzi invited to discuss the Tao with Yuanshi Tianzun?"
Demon Queen: "Journey to the West is Journey to the West; can what is in a book be the same as reality?"
Number One Golden Core of the Nine Provinces: "That makes sense, that makes sense."
Zui Ai He Shounai: "Wahaha, I want to see the Ginseng Fruit."
Tushan Boss: "You just want to eat it, Xiao Shi."
Zui Ai He Shounai: "Hehe."
Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Ah, this... if Zhenyuan Daxian is here, how are we supposed to wreak havoc in Wuzhuang Temple, and how are we supposed to steal and eat the Ginseng Fruit?"
Demon King Who Never Suffers Losses: "Is there a possibility that you don't need to steal to eat the Ginseng Fruit?"
Number One Golden Core of the Nine Provinces: "Isn't that pretty good?"
Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "It's good, but it's a pity that Guanyin Bodhisattva won't have a chance to appear."
Diviner: "..., there are a bit too many accidents in this Journey to the West."
Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Xuan Ge, can I smell this Ginseng Fruit? I won't eat it."
Demon Queen: "In your dreams."
One Sword Qing'er: "Everything exists in dreams, but this Zhenyuan Daxian is indeed powerful. Even I find it difficult to sense his realm; it is as if he is the carrier of the Tao, present everywhere."
Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "This is a big shot who has lived from the ancient times until now. So many Great Luos have perished, yet he is still here. How could he be ordinary!"
Ancestral Mo Nv Houtu: "How interesting, can I go to Xuanzang's world?"
Scripture Seeker: "Don't come, don't come. Ancestral Mo Nv Houtu, there is already a Houtu here."
Xuanzang hurriedly said; he wasn't being stingy, was he?
Rather, it is that with two Houtu existing in one world, heaven knows what might happen.
Especially since Ancestral Mo Nv Houtu has not yet become a Saint, while the Houtu here is a Saint.
Ancestral Mo Nv Houtu: "I had forgotten, but I still really want to meet another version of myself; I am curious what she looks like."
Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "Uh... when I have time to go to the Underworld, I will go and ask."
Ancestral Mo Nv Houtu: "Really?"
Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "Really, I never lie to people."
Ancestral Mo Nv Houtu: "That's great."
Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Two Houtu Dalao meeting, I'm so looking forward to it."
Demon Queen: "Do you think they will fight?"
Diviner: "Not necessarily, not necessarily."
Immortal King Anlan: "Isn't it said that one mountain cannot hold two tigers? What if they really fight?"
Ancestral Mo Nv Houtu: "Probably not, my temper is very good."
Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "I feel like the Houtu in my world is a bit black-bellied."
Thinking of the experience in the River of Blood, Xuanzang still felt a chill down his spine.
At this time, Zhenyuanzi led Xuanzang and the others into the main hall of the Taoist temple.
"Qingfeng, Mingyue, go pick some Ginseng Fruit to entertain our guests," Zhenyuanzi said.
"Master, how many should I pick?" the young Taoist Mingyue asked.
Her expression was somewhat troubled, mainly because there were quite a few people in Xuanzang's group.
And Ginseng Fruit takes at least ten thousand years from growth to bearing fruit; it is too precious.
"Six," Zhenyuanzi said calmly.
Hearing this, the two young Taoists Mingyue and Qingfeng hurriedly went down to prepare.
"Great Immortal, you are too polite. With my demon body, how could I be worthy of tasting Ginseng Fruit?" Bajie said modestly.
"Although Ginseng Fruit is an Innate Spiritual Plant, its essence is just a type of fruit. If it is not used for eating, what is it kept for?" Zhenyuanzi said.
"Generous, Great Immortal. Then could you give two more? I have a big appetite," Bajie said.
"..., the door is over there..." Zhenyuanzi flicked his horsetail whisk lightly.
"Bajie, how did I usually teach you? How can you be so insatiable?" Xuanzang spoke up.
"Master, I am a pig," Bajie said.
"This fool." Sun Wukong shook his head; he was losing too much face for his master.
"Great Immortal, it is impolite not to reciprocate. Since you can use Ginseng Fruit to entertain us, I will make a fool of myself and offer you a stir-fried pig head to add to the festivities," Xuanzang said.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, very good," Zhenyuanzi laughed.
"Wukong, tie him up," Xuanzang said.
"..., don't, Master," Bajie wailed, his face full of terror.
Why did he suddenly want to operate on him?
Xuanzang acted as if he hadn't heard, instead saying:
"Great Immortal, as far as I know, shouldn't you be going to discuss the Tao with the Heavenly Venerable at this time? Why are you still here?"
Upon hearing this, Zhenyuanzi said candidly:
"I was originally going to discuss the Tao with Yuanshi Tianzun, but since you, Xuanzang, were arriving, I declined Yuanshi Tianzun's invitation. There are many opportunities to discuss the Tao; it's not a loss to miss this one."
"This..., Brother Taoist, you are harming me. Wouldn't that make it seem like my face is bigger than a Saint's?" Xuanzang said.
"Xuanzang, don't worry. What kind of existence is a Saint? They won't care about these details," Zhenyuanzi said.
To be honest, Xuanzang was somewhat flattered.
Even if he were the reincarnation of Jinchanzi, he probably wouldn't have this kind of treatment.
With Zhenyuanzi's status and magic power, there was no need to care about Buddhism at all.
When things are abnormal, there must be a demon!
