Journey to the West: Please Call Me the White Bone Demon

Yun Zhao appeared silently in the center of the courtyard.

When Pigsy and Sandy suddenly saw this person, they were terrified.

Pigsy cried out "Ouch!" with a look of tension on his face.

The suffering they have endured over the years all stems from this person. The humiliating memories of their magic being sealed and having to carry manure every day instantly flooded back to their minds. How could they not be afraid?

Sun Wukong reacted the fastest.

His sharp eyes scanned the area, and he was greatly alarmed.

When did this person appear?

He infiltrated the city discreetly, proceeding cautiously along the way.

His divine sense enveloped everything, and he could control the entire area within a hundred miles.

Yet they didn't even notice the person approaching!

Master!

Absolutely a master!

His golden cudgel suddenly appeared in his hand, and with a shake, it grew to a length of twelve feet, radiating brilliant golden light.

They protected Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing behind them.

Pigsy whispered tremblingly from behind, "Brother Monkey, this is the city lord of White Tiger City! He's the one who sealed our magical powers back then! His supernatural abilities are terrifying, we... we need to be careful!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately became more vigilant.

He sized Yun Zhao up and down, noticing his extraordinary bearing, unlike any ordinary demon. Yet, he stubbornly retorted, "So you're the filthy cat city lord! Get out of my way! My master has atoneed enough; we're on our journey to the West to retrieve the scriptures!"

Yun Zhao didn't answer directly, but laughed and said, "Sun Wukong, how dare you! You committed a crime on my White Tiger Ridge, and instead of going after you, you've delivered yourself to my doorstep?"

Sun Wukong said, "You're quite arrogant! Your maternal grandfather is right here; what can you do to me?"

Yun Zhao sneered, "My city needs a comedic monkey, and you're just what I need!"

These words enraged the monkey, who could not tolerate them.

He wielded the golden cudgel, its shadow like a mountain pressing down, carrying a world-destroying force, and smashed straight at Yun Zhao!

He didn't forget to shout, "Fool! Brother Sha! Take Master away! I, Old Sun, will deal with this madman!"

Upon hearing this, Pigsy and Sandy dared not delay. They quickly grabbed Tang Sanzang, used their remaining magical power, and prepared to escape from the courtyard.

Tang Sanzang was filled with mixed feelings. He wanted to persuade Wukong not to hit him, but knowing the monkey's temper, he could only sigh and go with them.

The blow was so powerful that the wind howled and the void seemed to be torn apart.

Yun Zhao, however, was not surprised but delighted: "You've come at the perfect time."

He gently stretched out his right hand, and golden light shone brightly in his palm. The Binding God Rope appeared out of thin air, transforming into ten thousand rays of golden light that enveloped Sun Wukong!

Sun Wukong, with his fiery eyes, immediately sensed danger: Something's wrong! There's something strange about this treasure! He quickly withdrew his staff and retreated, his body swaying as he tried to twist away the golden light.

But this Binding God Rope was no ordinary object. It seemed to have locked onto his aura, relentlessly pursuing him. No matter how he swayed left or right, or jumped up and down, the golden light remained ever-present, drawing ever closer!

The monkey sped into the air, his somersault cloud churning, covering 108,000 li in the blink of an eye. But then he heard a continuous "whoosh" behind him, and the rope was chasing even faster! Sun Wukong had a flash of inspiration. He plucked a handful of hairs, blew on them to create soldiers, and transformed them into dozens of fake bodies. He hid among them, hoping to use this to deceive the magic weapon.

The Binding God Rope ignored the illusion and went straight through the phantom, heading straight for the real body!

Sun Wukong roared in fury: "You little treasure! Don't even think about trapping me, Old Sun!"

He raised his golden cudgel and smashed it down on the rope like Mount Tai, trying to shatter it to pieces.

When the staff and rope collided, a loud "clang" rang out, and the golden cudgel was bounced back, but the rope was not damaged at all. Instead, it took advantage of the momentum to wrap up and bind Sun Wukong tightly in the blink of an eye, making him look like a rice dumpling.

The monkey was terrified and struggled with all its might, but the tighter the grip became!

He tried to break free of the restraints by channeling his magic power, but to no avail. His magic power was like a mud ox sinking into the sea, unable to budge it in the slightest.

Sun Wukong panicked and used his seventy-two transformations, his body growing as large as a mountain, a thousand feet long. The rope also grew larger, transforming into a ten-thousand-foot-long golden chain, which locked him firmly.

He shrank to the size of a mustard seed, and the rope shrank to the size of a hair, binding him even tighter.

He tried to use the technique of earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of magic that allows one to burrow underground), but his feet were tightly bound, and he could not move.

He tried all three escape techniques—heavenly escape, water escape, and fire escape—but none of them worked!

Yun Zhao arrived shortly after, recalling how he had suffered losses at Sun Wukong's hands in all the previous simulations, yet now a single magic weapon had bound him. He couldn't help but laugh heartily: "Monkey, you've finally met your match!"

Bound in mid-air, unable to move, Sun Wukong roared, his fiery eyes seemingly burning with rage, "Old demon! If you have the guts, release me and fight me for real! What kind of skill is this, resorting to underhanded tricks?"

Yun Zhao ignored him, grabbed at the air with his large hand, and activated the Five Elements Divine Power.

The three travelers, Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing, heard a rumbling sound in their ears, as if the earth were turning over. Then the sand beneath their feet churned and suddenly transformed into a hundred-foot-long hand that shot out from the ground, grabbed the three of them, and pulled them down to the ground!

Before the three could finish their exclamations, they were dragged back by the earthen hand and landed in front of Yun Zhao.

Pigsy was so frightened he nearly jumped out of his skin, wildly swinging his rake, but the earthen hand held him firmly, rendering him unable to move.

Tang Sanzang clasped his hands together and sighed, "City Lord...why must you do this?"

Yun Zhao said calmly, "Still trying to escape? Monk, since you two are so devoted to each other, how can I let you leave like this?"

"The events of that year have not yet been resolved; how can we so easily part ways?"

He raised his hand and pointed a few fingers, sending several streams of magical power into the bodies of Pigsy and Sandy.

The Five Elements Restraints, which had just been lifted by Sun Wukong, once again tightly locked down their magical power!

The two felt as if their magical power was being constricted by an iron clamp, and the surging power instantly froze, causing their expressions to change.

Pigsy cried out, "My magic has been sealed again! Monkey King, save me..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw that even the Monkey King he had been longing for was in dire straits.

Sun Wukong was suspended in mid-air by the Binding God Rope, and he was anxious as he watched his master and fellow disciples being subdued once again.

"Damn it, I was caught off guard and fell into this old devil's trap. What kind of magic weapon is this? How can it bind me so tightly?"

Thinking of a solution, the monkey said, "Old demon, since you have such abilities, you should know that I didn't kill that little demon back then. My master and junior brother have been doing hard labor in your city for the past few years, which should be enough to atone for their sins. Why are you still holding onto this?"

Yun Zhao naturally understood this, but if he didn't do it this way, how could he trap you?

He sneered, "Although no one was killed, as the old saying goes, 'returning a favor is better than receiving one.' They haven't made enemies of you, so why have you repeatedly tried to kill them?"

The monkey snorted coldly, "So what? My master is a high-ranking monk on his pilgrimage. Countless demons have coveted him along the way. How would I know if that little demon is good or evil?"

"That's right."

Yun Zhao clapped lightly: "Whether you go on your pilgrimage or not, what does it have to do with me!"

Brothers, I know you guys think the author updates too slowly and want to "wait and see" the book. Waiting and seeing is fine, but could you at least give it a five-star review?! o(╥﹏╥)o

Without data, I'll really die instantly, please, I'll do anything for you o(╥﹏╥)o
