Chapter 1987

~4 min read 609 words

After they left the palace, they saw that on the construction sites of the Daoist temples that were being built, all the monks had disappeared.

There was only one monk, presumably having had his leg broken by a falling stone, lying on the edge of the site. There, a burly, middle-aged Daoist was squatting, treating his leg injury.

Sun Wukong looked closely and saw that the man was actually Tiger Power Immortal.

Fahai also saw it and said indifferently, "Wukong, it turns out there really are good ones among these demons. I, Fahai, truly believe it this time. Do you?"

Sun Wukong shrugged, looked at Fahai, and said, "I hope he can stay this way. I'm just afraid he's only putting on a show for us."

"Heh." Marshal Tianpeng laughed and suddenly said, "Monkey Brother, you are just too suspicious. Actually, we should be able to figure this matter out clearly."

"You fool, what do you mean?"

Sun Wukong suddenly turned his head, looking at Marshal Tianpeng with doubt in his eyes.

"Back then, with the cultivation base of these three demons, successfully ascending to the position of National Teacher, if they had wanted to kill this King and set themselves up as rulers, it would have been as easy as turning over one's hand. Since that didn't happen, it shows that this Tiger Power Immortal does indeed have a kind heart."

Marshal Tianpeng looked at Sun Wukong and said very seriously.

These words of his also made Sun Wukong ponder for a moment. Perhaps he also felt that what Marshal Tianpeng said made sense.

"Eldest Senior Brother, I noticed at the palace gate just now that the King's decree has already been issued, pardoning all monks in the world from forced labor and simultaneously rebuilding the destroyed temples."

General Wujing looked at Sun Wukong and added.

"In that case, I was right not to kill him!"

Sun Wukong shrugged, pretending to have an indifferent attitude.

Looking at the great road extending toward the West, with no end in sight, the master and his disciples continued their journey westward.

At this time, above the Heavenly Court, Haotian and the ranks of immortals were also observing this scene.

Emperor Haotian stroked his beard, frowned, and said leisurely, "This shouldn't be. In the Journey to the West Kalpa, these three demons had no background. Since they offended Sun Wukong, they should not have been able to escape the fate of being beaten to death."

Taibai Jinxing curled his lips into a smile and said, "This Kalpa was set by our Heavenly Court, and the result is indeed beyond our expectations. I didn't expect Sun Wukong to actually spare Tiger Power Immortal's life."

Taishang Laojun stroked his beard, a smile appearing on his face, and said, "Younger Brother, this Tiger Power Immortal, strictly speaking, can be considered our Daoist disciple. Although he was born a demon, he possesses a kind heart. I think Sun Wukong sparing him is also reasonable and fair."

Nezha listened to these few speaking and then said, "In short, we have completed this Kalpa perfectly."

"Although Tiger Power Immortal is a demon, he has a kind heart and a Daoist mind. I feel he will have good fortune in the future. Don't both the Buddhist and Daoist schools advocate not adding to one's karmic debt through killing? I think Sun Wukong did a beautiful job."

Li Jing turned his head to look at Nezha, bowed slightly, and said, "To be precise, it should be that Fahai did a good job; otherwise, given that monkey's temper, this Tiger Power Immortal should have died long ago." ===== CHAPTER 1989 =====
