After transmigrating into the body of the Jade Rat Spirit, I became Nezha's adopted sister.

Bai Yeying opened her eyes groggily, and the first thing she saw was not her familiar ceiling, but a carved dome.

"What's going on?" She tried to sit up, but felt weak and listless, and her head was spinning.

She looked down at herself. She wasn't wearing pajamas, but an ancient-style dress.

Bai Yeying propped herself up on the bed and looked around. It was an ancient room, with luminous pearls embedded in the walls, illuminating the space.

"Where am I? Didn't I just finish watching a show all night and was about to go to sleep?" she wondered blankly, a sense of foreboding rising in her heart.

Just then, footsteps approached, accompanied by excited chatter: "Has Madam woken up? Go and report quickly!"

"He's awake! I just glanced over, and he's sitting up!"

"Excellent! With Madam personally taking charge, it was a piece of cake! That Tang Dynasty monk has such delicate skin and is clearly top-quality!"

"Keep your voice down! Madam said she wants it alive. Keep it alive for now, don't frighten it!"

"Hehe, I know, I know. Once Madam and that monk get married, we can also benefit from it..."

A Tang Dynasty monk? Getting married?

These keywords struck Bai Yeying's mind like a thunderbolt. Her eyes widened, and an absurd guess surfaced in her mind.

Did she time travel? Or did she travel into the world of Journey to the West?

Bai Yeying climbed off the bed and rushed to the bronze mirror in the room. A face that was both strange and familiar was reflected in it. Her skin was snow-white, her eyebrows and eyes were exquisite, her almond eyes were wide open, her nose was straight and delicate, and her lips were light pink. She was indeed a rare beauty.

At that moment, something came to mind.

The Bottomless Cave of Trapped Sky Mountain, the Golden-Nosed White-Haired Rat Demon, the Half-Bodied Guanyin, the Earth-Emerging Lady, capturing Tang Sanzang, forcing him into marriage...

"I've transmigrated into the Golden-Nosed White-Haired Rat Demon? And after she's already captured Tang Sanzang?" Bai Yeying felt a wave of dizziness and almost collapsed to the ground.

Oh no, oh no, oh no! This is really the end!

What happened to this rat demon in the original story? She was trapped in her cave by Sun Wukong and Nezha, and was eventually taken back to the Heavenly Palace by Li Jing to be dealt with. Although she didn't die, she definitely didn't get away with it!

She just arrived and hasn't done anything yet, but she's already taking the blame for the original owner's huge problem?

"Calm down, Bai Yeying, calm down!" She pinched her thigh hard, the pain bringing her to a slightly more alert state. The most urgent thing was to figure out where they were on the road.

"Where is Tang Sanzang? Do Sun Wukong and the others know? Have they come knocking on our door yet?"

She forced herself to think, recalling the original plot. After the rat demon captured Tang Sanzang, she seemed to first feign gentleness, tricking him into marriage, only to be seen through by Sun Wukong, which then attracted Nezha...

That's right! Nezha! That killer star!

Bai Yeying shuddered. The original owner of this body was hunted down by him for stealing the fragrant flowers and candles. Now that she had taken the place of the original owner and even committed a major act like kidnapping Tang Sanzang, if he caught her, the old and new grudges combined would probably make it much more difficult to subdue her; he might just stab her to death with a single spear!

No! We absolutely cannot sit idly by and wait to die!

Bai Yeying immediately began to examine herself. This body clearly possessed cultivation; she could feel a pure demonic power flowing within her.

She tried to manipulate it, and a small wisp of white light appeared on her finger.

"It's good to have magic power, then I can escape!" She felt a little relieved and began to make plans.

First, we need to find Tang Sanzang and see how he is doing, whether he has been mistreated.

Although the rat spirit was relatively polite to Tang Sanzang in the original story, after all, she wanted to marry him, who knows if reality might be different? What if the original owner didn't hold back...?

Secondly, she needed to understand the situation of the cave. This was a bottomless pit with numerous branching passages, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack, but also easy to get lost in. She needed to familiarize herself with the escape route.

Finally, it is the most important point.

Run! Immediately! Right now! Before Sun Wukong and Nezha come knocking, she should quickly grab her valuables and make a run for it! She'll find a deep mountain forest to hide in and cultivate for a thousand or eight hundred years before worrying about the journey to the West. Let whoever wants to get involved in this mess, let them. She's not doing it anymore.

Having made up her mind, Bai Yeying calmed down a bit.

She straightened her clothes, adjusted her expression in front of the bronze mirror, and then said, "Someone come here."

Footsteps sounded immediately, and two little demons ran in, bowing respectfully: "Madam, you're awake? What are your orders?"

Bai Yeying sized them up; they seemed quite clever. She said in a deep voice, "Take me to see that Tang Dynasty monk. Remember, don't frighten him."

"Yes, Madam!" The two little demons quickly responded and turned to lead the way.

As Bai Yeying navigated the intricate network of passages, she felt a chill run down her spine.

This bottomless pit truly lived up to its name. The passages were interconnected, with numerous forks in the road, and many places were even decorated with simple mazes and traps. If it weren't for the little demon guiding the way, this imposter lady would probably have gotten lost on her own.

The other minor demons she encountered along the way all bowed respectfully to her and addressed her as "Madam," indicating that the original owner of this body held considerable prestige here.

After winding their way through the streets, they arrived at an outdoor spot. Two small demons holding tridents stood guard at the entrance.

"Open the door," Bai Yeying commanded.

The stone door slid open, revealing the scene inside.

The stone chamber was small and simply furnished, containing only a bed, a table, and a chair.

At this moment, a handsome young monk in a kasaya was sitting cross-legged on the bed, his eyes slightly closed, his hands holding prayer beads, and his mouth softly chanting scriptures.

Aside from his pale complexion and worried expression, he showed no signs of injury, and his clothes were relatively neat.

Bai Yeying breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, Tang Seng seemed alright. But how should she explain or try to fool him?

She waved away the little demon, walked into the stone chamber alone, and closed the door behind her.

Hearing the noise, Tang Sanzang opened his eyes. Seeing Bai Yeying, his eyes showed wariness and helplessness, but he quickly regained his composure, clasping his hands together: "Amitabha, female benefactor, what is your intention in trapping this humble monk here?"

Bai Yeying composed herself and forced a smile that seemed kind but was actually guilty: "Holy Monk, please don't be offended. I invited you here with no ill intentions. I have long admired your great name and wish to invite you to stay here for a few days to discuss the Dao and Zen."

She blushed at her own words. Kidnapping someone to discuss philosophy and Zen? Who would believe that!

As expected, Tang Sanzang looked at her with a complicated expression, clearly not believing her explanation. However, he was very well-mannered and did not speak sarcastically. He simply chanted a Buddhist prayer: "Since you, female benefactor, have a heart devoted to Buddhism, why not let go of your attachments and allow this humble monk to continue his journey westward?"

"Uh... well!" Bai Yeying hesitated, her mind racing.

To simply say, "I've arrested the wrong person, you can leave now?" That would be too frivolous, and she also had to consider the reaction of the group of lesser demons outside. If they thought the lady had gone mad, or had other intentions, it would be even more troublesome.

Just as she was racking her brains for an excuse, a commotion suddenly erupted inside the cave. Immediately afterward, a panicked little demon rushed in, shouting through the stone door:

"Madam! It's terrible, Madam! A troop of heavenly soldiers has arrived outside the cave! Leading them is a young general in red robes riding on wheels of fire and wielding a fire-tipped spear. He's challenging you, Madam, to hand over the Tang Dynasty holy monk immediately, or they'll storm in!"
