Honghuang: Fire De Huaguang, I am the Horse King of Human Education

"I have to say, Buddhism packaged him very well."

The demons laughed when they saw that Xuanzang was afraid of them.

"Yes, shouldn't this cruel scene be his favorite? Now he's actually afraid of it."

The demons stared at Xuanzang.

Xuanzang was still afraid; he dared not look at the demons. He never expected that he would die before he could even begin his mission.

"This humble monk is on his way to the Western Paradise to retrieve the Buddhist scriptures and save all sentient beings. Please spare my life."

Mustering his courage, he begged for mercy.

The demons didn't take his request seriously.

"When will your salvation of all living beings include our demon race? If you succeed, what will become of the demon race?"

Xuanzang was stunned when he heard what the demons said. He had always regarded the demons as bad people and never thought that saving all living beings had anything to do with them.

But now, according to what the demons say...

He then realized that things were far more complicated than he had thought.

But just then, Ziwei and the others appeared there.

"You monsters! How dare you harm people! Today we will take you down!"

Upon seeing Ziwei descend, the demons immediately scattered and fled.

The wild buffalo demon saw Ziwei and the others.

"People of Heaven! You're going to help this bald monk too? I'll kill you all."

Instead of retreating, the three tiger spirits charged forward.

Upon seeing this, Ziwei didn't bother to take action; she simply suppressed them with her aura.

"How laughable, a bunch of little demons, trying to stir up trouble."

After subduing the demon race, Ziwei looked at Xuanzang.

Xuanzang was grateful to see someone come to his rescue and quickly bowed to Ziwei.

When he saw Ziwei, he suddenly felt that she looked familiar.

"Many thanks to all the immortals for your help. I do not know your names, but I will repay your kindness in the future."

Hearing that Xuanzang actually thanked himself, I wonder how angry Buddhists would be if they heard that.

Guanyin was furious when she saw Ziwei and the others getting close to Xuanzang and heard what Xuanzang said.

Ziwei and the others told Xuanzang not to worry about it.

“It’s a small matter and not worth mentioning. We admire your heart for helping all living beings. We just happened to run into you today, so we can’t let anything happen to you.”

According to what Ziwei said.

Xuanzang continued to bow.

"The righteousness of the immortal."

As he spoke, Xuanzang felt that he knew Ziwei, so he asked her a question.

"Immortal, have we met somewhere before? Why do I feel so familiar with you?"

After hearing this, Ziwei didn't know how to respond for a moment.

"I don't think I've ever seen it before. The high monk no longer has any attendants, only a white horse. How will you proceed?"

Ziwei changed the subject.

Seeing Ziwei's embarrassed expression, Jiang Ziya and the others held back their laughter.

"The way Senior Brother acted just now was truly amusing."

"Don't let Xuanzang hear this."

Wen Zhong reminded him.

Upon hearing what Ziwei said, Xuanzang realized that he had no one left to rely on.

"In retrospect, it was I who harmed them."

Xuanzang felt very guilty. Hearing him say this, Nezha asked him a question from the side.

"If you feel useless, will you stop moving forward?"

Hearing Nezha speak, everyone stared at him. If Xuanzang really lost his faith and continued his journey to the west, the Heavenly Court's plan would also fail.

But Xuanzang did not give up after hearing this.

“I will not give up. Although they suffered an accident because of me, I will naturally transfer the karma to myself.”

“But it is impossible for me to give up and not go to the Western Paradise to obtain the scriptures. What I am going to do is to benefit all living beings in the primordial world. I cannot give up because of this small matter.”

When Xuanzang spoke, his aura changed.

"very good!"

Ziwei affirmed. "In the primordial world today, your idea is truly rare. I thank you in advance on behalf of all living beings in the primordial world."

Jiang Ziya and his companions were equally relieved that Buddhism's brainwashing of Xuanzang had been successful.

His conviction would not waver because of Nezha's questioning.

When Xuanzang heard what Ziwei said to him, his resolve became even stronger.

However, recalling what the demons had just said, he had some doubts.

"But this humble monk wishes to save all living beings, yet the demons just now said that this humble monk will not save them. How can this be explained?"

After hearing this, Ziwei told him very firmly.

"Don't worry, they just want to disturb your Dao heart. They kill people like flies and harm the prehistoric world, so naturally they don't want to see you save the prehistoric world."

"I see."

Ziwei blinked, still thinking about how to say it to make Xuanzang believe her.

Unexpectedly, after hearing his own encouragement, he actually took it to heart.

"Is this a good thing or a bad thing?"

Seeing him like this, Wen Zhong was more worried than anything else.

They didn't know what Buddhism and Xuanzang had actually said. If Buddhism had reversed right and wrong, Xuanzang probably wouldn't have been able to understand it either.

Ziwei led Xuanzang out of the cave.

"We've taken care of things here, so we won't accompany you any further. You'll have to walk the rest of the journey westward on your own."

Xuanzang bid them farewell.

"Xuanzang understands that even if he is all alone, he will not give up."

Ziwei and the others cheered Xuanzang on.

Let him continue.

But to Ziwei and the others' surprise.

As dawn broke, Xuanzang continued his journey on his white horse. Suddenly, the horse was startled and began to run wildly.

Xuanzang hadn't been gone long when he was thrown to the ground by the white horse.

He found himself trapped in a thicket of bushes, unconscious, and when he woke up, he found his body covered in poisonous insects.

"what!"

The screams rang out again.

Ziwei and the others were about to leave when they heard his screams.

Guanyin was also startled after hearing this.

“Ziwei, you should be glad you didn’t attack Xuanzang.”

Seeing his unyielding spirit, Wen Zhong struck Guanyin with thunder.

Guanyin was not injured, but she looked rather disheveled when she went up.

"Your plan is complete. Release me now, or I will make you pay the price."

He wanted to rescue Xuanzang.

Ziwei, however, mocked her.

“The people you Buddhists found are no good either. He’s been tortured like this, and he probably won’t last long before he breaks down.”

After hearing this, Ziwei deliberately spoke up.

"Xuanzang's mind is stronger than anyone else's; once he has made up his mind, he will succeed."

After being bitten by the poisonous insect, Xuanzang's lips turned black, and he fainted again.

"This matter has nothing to do with us."

Ziwei pointed at the poisonous insect.

These poisonous insects were not something I arranged myself.

Upon hearing this, Guanyin tried to rush out, but was overwhelmed by Hua Hui's poison, and could not fully utilize her spiritual power.

Why won't you let me leave!

Ziwei told Guanyin with a smile.

"We can handle this matter, so don't worry. I just helped Xuanzang, and I'm hoping he'll succeed on his journey to the West and add to my merits."

I was surprised to learn that Ziwei had this purpose.

Guanyin naturally could not agree to that.

But Wen Zhong had already transformed into a hunter. He chased away the poisonous insects and led the poisoned Xuanzang down the mountain. (End of Chapter)
