Tang Sanzang was burying his head in the Dragon Maiden''s bosom, rubbing back and forth.

    If it were any other time, the Dragon Maiden definitely wouldn''t have given him the chance, but seeing him cry so sorrowfully, the kind-hearted Dragon Maiden didn''t push him away. Instead, she patted his back and said, "It''s okay, it''s all in the past... If you can''t remember the past, then so be it. Don''t you have us to keep you company now..."

    "Wuuwuu... Don''t talk, just hold me, let me be quiet..." Tang Sanzang said.

    The Dragon Maiden really stopped talking, and just held Tang Sanzang as she stood there.

    Watching this scene, Mu Zha and the Black Bear Spirit were internally screaming, "Damn, you beast!"

    The Dragon Maiden was simple, but not stupid. When she realized that this baldy''s tears were becoming less and his drool was becoming more, she understood something was off...

    "You pervert!"

    Bang!

    The Dragon Maiden''s long leg kicked out, and a figure flew out of the window, bouncing twice on the ground before stopping.

    In the distance, the Dragon Maiden, with her face flushed, cursed "pervert" while running away.

    Seeing this, Tang Sanzang said with lingering thoughts, "I was too hasty... Alas..."

    The Black Bear Spirit and Mu Zha came over and said, "Elder Tang, your sorrow comes quickly, but it goes away quickly too, huh."

    Tang Sanzang retorted, "So what? Should I go around with a gloomy face every day?"

    The Black Bear Spirit and Mu Zha, thinking about this baldy with a gloomy old face every day, immediately shook their heads, "Never mind, as long as you''re happy."

    "I''ve been so sad today, I''ve decided to eat something nice to compensate for my injured soul," Tang Sanzang said, then looked towards Mount Ling''s animal sanctuary...

    The Black Bear Spirit quickly said, "Oh my lord, that''s not okay. That sanctuary was created by several Buddhas working together, and it''s filled with their favorites... Forget eating, normal folks would find it hard even to get in. There''s someone specially to feed the sacred animals, they eat better than people, each one of them so fat that they could drip oil just standing there... Elder Tang, take it slow, don''t go through the main gate, there are more people there! Use the back door, fewer people..."

    Mu Zha glared at the Black Bear Spirit and said, "Are you urging him not to go?"

    The Black Bear Spirit, wiping his saliva, said righteously, "Of course, what else?"

    Mu Zha rolled his eyes and had no interest in dealing with him.

    Tang Sanzang heeded the Black Bear Spirit''s advice and didn''t go through the main gate, but went round to the back.

    At the back, a fat monk and a skinny monk were standing guard at the entrance of the animal sanctuary.

    The fat monk kept yawning, his face the picture of tiredness, his eyes almost closing.

    The Conquering Dragon Arhat, Jie Dian, grew unhappy, "What are you saying? When have I ever broken a promise?"

    Tang Sanzang replied, "Back on Lioness Ridge, you told me to save that Golden Winged Great Peng meat for you, you''d get some fine wine, and we would drink and be merry together. I saved the meat, but where is your wine?"

    Upon hearing this, the Conquering Dragon Arhat also got angry, "You have the nerve to accuse me? After I found the fine wine, I followed you all the way to the Bottomless Pit. Do you know what I went through?"

    Tang Sanzang dismissed him with a wave, "Don''t brag; I never saw you at the Bottomless Pit!"

    The Conquering Dragon Arhat instantly pulled out an imprinting stone from his bosom, "Don''t believe it? See for yourself!"

    The imprinting stone was activated, showing a view from below. The Conquering Dragon Arhat appeared to be lying in a pit, surrounded by large feet kicking down at him relentlessly.

    Upon a closer look, it was Sun Wukong, Sha Wujing, Zhu Ganglie, the White Dragon Horse, and the Six-Eared Macaque who were attacking.

    These guys were beating him while cursing, "We told you to leave and you wouldn''t, stubborn fool, take that!"

    "Hit harder!"

    "Brothers, beat him to death!"

    ...

    The Six-Eared Macaque shouted, "Master is back!"

    The disciples hurriedly turned around and jumped out of the pit, lined up, and bowed to Tang Sanzang, "Greetings, Master!"

    Tang Sanzang looked at them suspiciously, "What were you all doing just now?"

    Sun Wukong answered, "Master, it was nothing... Just a wild pig passing by who wouldn''t listen to reason, so we taught him a lesson, advised him to follow the right path, to be obedient, not to be too stubborn." Discover exclusive content at My Virtual Library Empire

    The Six-Eared Macaque added, "Right, right, right, that pig is somewhat related to Second Brother, so we all patiently instructed him, right, Second Brother?"

    Zhu Ganglie glared fiercely at him but still said, "Right, right, right... Master, it''s getting late. Seeing you''re in good spirits, shall we get on our way?"

    Sha Wujing said, "Master, you know me, I..."

    "What ''I'' what? Just go and fetch the horse!" Sun Wukong exclaimed, ushering the group whose chatter gradually faded into the distance.

    ...

    It suddenly dawned on Tang Sanzang that when he had climbed out from under Lady Earthflow''s bed and leaped out of the large hole, he indeed saw his disciples beating something.

    So, it was this lad they were beating!
