In the end, the Great Sage broke the rules.

Chapter 101 It’s Snowing

"Big Brother, look! What's this?" Pigsy said as he bent down and picked up a shiny object from the ground, then handed it to Monkey King.

Sun Wukong looked closely, a hint of surprise on his face, and replied, "These are fish scales!"

He took the scale and carefully examined its intricate patterns, secretly thinking, "Could that king be a fish demon...?"

Pigsy scratched his head and asked, "Should we still chase after them?"

Sun Wukong glared at Zhu Bajie and said irritably, "Nonsense! Of course we have to chase after them! We finally found some clues, how can we let them go so easily?"

Pigsy quickly replied, "Huh? Oh, okay! I, Pigsy, will do as you say!"

Unfortunately, when the two chased after him, the King of Inspiration had already disappeared.

……

After returning to the river, the King of Inspiration fell into deep thought.

He had already realized the true identities of Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie during their fierce battle.

Knowing that Tang Sanzang was in Chenjiazhuang at that moment, he was naturally overjoyed.

If he could eat Tang Sanzang's flesh, he could live forever. Then why would he need to capture those young boys and girls to increase his power?

However, King Linggan was also well aware that with his current strength, he was no match for Tang Sanzang's three powerful disciples.

If they were to force a confrontation, they might not only fail to capture Tang Sanzang, but also risk their own lives.

So, the King of Inspiration began racking his brains to come up with other clever plans to capture Tang Sanzang.

"Your Majesty, why don't we do it this way..."

Just when the King of Inspiration was at his wit's end, the Spotted Mandarin Duck Granny came forward like a timely rain and offered him a brilliant plan.

Upon hearing this, the King of Inspiration felt as if he had been enlightened and nodded repeatedly.

King Linggan solemnly promised, "As long as you can capture Tang Sanzang, I will definitely become sworn brothers with you and share immortality."

The spotted mandarin duck was overjoyed: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The next day, the King of Inspiration followed the plan and displayed his supernatural powers.

……

"Master! Master!"

Hearing Pigsy's deafening shout, Chen Yi shrank even closer into Sun Wukong's arms.

He waited for Sun Wukong to return last night and didn't fall asleep until almost dawn. He was still very sleepy, but this ungrateful disciple of Zhu Bajie dared to disturb his peaceful sleep so early in the morning!

Sun Wukong quickly covered Chen Yi's ears, gently patted the little monk's back, and coaxed softly, "Good boy, you can continue sleeping~"

After saying that, he glanced coldly at Zhu Bajie, who had barged in without a word, with a frost-like expression. Then, he raised his finger and cast a spell, throwing Zhu Bajie out like a kite with a broken string.

Even after he tumbled and fell awkwardly into the snow, Pigsy was still completely bewildered.

He only wanted to tell his master that it was snowing, so why was he thrown out?

……

In the afternoon, Chen Yi slowly opened his eyes on the bed.

They also learned from Sha Wujing that although it was only early autumn, Chenjiazhuang was already covered in snow.

Such a strange sight must be the work of that wretched King of Inspiration in the dark.

Although Chen Yi was angry after learning the truth, his body seemed to still be immersed in the sleep he had just had, and he was listless and unable to muster any energy.

So he simply burrowed into the warm blankets, curling up like a cold-sensitive little animal, not wanting to move at all.

Sun Wukong followed suit, burying himself in the quilt, except that he shared a quilt with Chen Yi and rested his head on Chen Yi's shoulder with his eyes closed.

At this moment, the Chen brothers came in and warmly invited them to stay and celebrate the New Year together, saying that they would wait until the heavy snow stopped before seeing them off on their way.

Upon hearing this, Pigsy immediately became excited and nodded repeatedly in agreement, indicating his willingness to stay there for a while longer.

After all, being able to enjoy the Chen family's sumptuous cuisine and attentive hospitality here was an irresistible temptation for him.

However, unlike Zhu Bajie, Chen Yi rolled his eyes at him without hesitation.

Although the Chen family did treat them to fine wine and food, Chen Yi felt that getting rid of the monster as soon as possible was the most urgent task.
