Journey to the West: Upon seeing the Yellow-Eyebrowed Demon, why not pay homage?

midair.

Just as Huang Mei and Su Su reunited and were about to fly towards the inner courtyard of the Tushita Heaven, they sensed two auras rapidly approaching from behind.

Without the slightest hesitation, Bai Susu summoned the golden bowl, which transformed into a golden streak of light that swept across the sky and crashed heavily into Zhifeng's body.

Huang Mei immediately joined the battle, raising his human seed bag to stabilize the willow branch. He then took out his chime mallet to block the immortal spirit sword.

After a few rounds of fighting, he could clearly feel the difference in magical power between himself and the Dragon Girl, so he suddenly put away the Human Seed Bag, gripped the chime mallet, and flew away with Bai Susu in a rainbow.

Zhifeng and Shancai Longnu flew side by side, but due to the difference in their strength, the distance between them kept widening, and soon Zhifeng was left far behind.

Huang Mei suddenly turned around and saw that the Dragon Girl was getting closer and closer. He abruptly stopped his flying cloud: "Wukong, what brings you here?"

Sudhana thought he was bluffing her, but to her surprise, a golden soft stick flew out from behind her and instantly wrapped around her waist.

"Sun Wukong!"

"Hehe, it's me, Old Sun." Sun Wukong landed in front of her with a smile and asked, "Little Dragon Girl, have you forgotten about me?"

Sudhana Dragon Girl: "..."

It was indeed overlooked.

I never imagined that Sun Wukong would attack me!

"Brother, you should go now."

While he was still in a daze, Sun Wukong spoke to Huang Mei.

"Thank you, brother." Huang Mei said his thanks, then rode on a cloud carrying Su Su and quickly disappeared from the scene.

After he left, Zhifeng caught up, panting, and glared at Sun Wukong, yelling, "Monkey, how could you help him?"

Sun Wukong silently sheathed his golden cudgel, raised an eyebrow, and said, "What you're saying... He's my elder brother. If I don't help him, why would I help you?"

"Do you have any conscience? If it weren't for Guanyin Bodhisattva giving you a chance, you would still be trapped under the Five Elements Mountain right now," Zhifeng continued to accuse.

Sun Wukong chuckled, "Ah, yes, yes, you're absolutely right."

Zhifeng: "..."

The Dragon Girl sighed softly, "Stop arguing, Zhifeng, let's go!"

"You'll regret this," Zhifeng said to Sun Wukong, unwilling to accept it.

Sun Wukong pretended to raise his golden cudgel, which frightened the opponent so much that he retreated repeatedly, not daring to face his sharp edge directly.

"I don't know if I'll regret it in the future, but I do know that if you don't leave now, you'll regret it immediately."

"Stop the wind!" The Dragon Girl's expression changed slightly, and she shouted again.

Zhi Feng was filled with resentment, but he had no choice but to follow the other person and ride away on the clouds...

On the other end.

Huang Mei carried Su Su to the vicinity of the Sacred Mountain of Spiritual Mountain, settled her on a green mountain, and explained softly:

"It's not suitable to take you with me to the inner court of Tushita Heaven. You shall wait here for me to come out."

Bai Susu squeezed his hand: "I'll wait for you to come and pick me up."

Huang Mei smiled slightly, then transformed into a faint golden light and swiftly disappeared into the Tushita Heaven.

Just like last time, when he arrived at the gate, the gate seemed to sense his presence and opened automatically.

Unlike last time, this time, unfortunately, he ran into several fellow disciples.

However, before he could react, his fellow disciples turned around and pretended not to see him.

Huang Mei blinked and called out, "Fellow senior brothers?"

"Ah~ I suddenly remembered that the prayer room hasn't been cleaned yet," a fellow disciple suddenly said.

"Let's go together, let's go together."

The others chimed in, formed a group, and dashed out of the backyard.

Huang Mei: "..."

"Why are you teasing them? Come here right now!"

Suddenly, the voice of the Buddha from the East rang in his ears.

Huang Mei smiled, walked briskly, and arrived at the outside of the meditation room in the blink of an eye. He bowed and said, "Greetings, Master."

"No need for formalities, come in and talk," said the Buddha from the East.

Huang Mei nodded and strode inside: "Master, the plan is going smoothly."

Donglai Buddha asked curiously, "Didn't Zhen Yuanzi have any doubts?"

Huang Mei said, "It seems there's no doubt..."

"Leaving you aside, let's talk about that monkey. He actually managed to fool Zhen Yuanzi. He's really grown quite capable," Donglai Buddha said with a sigh.

"As the saying goes, hardship is the foundation of growth. After experiencing great changes, he is no longer the naive and impulsive Monkey King," Huang Mei said.

Donglai Buddha nodded, and with a wave of his hand, summoned a golden gourd, which he then pushed through the air in front of Huang Mei:

"The divine elixir is ready; take it to save the tree."

The specific method of saving the tree is to first rebury the roots and stems of the fruit tree back into the soil, and then prop the broken tree up in its original shape.

Finally, the divine elixir will transform into sweet rain and fall, causing roots and bark to unite, leaves to grow, buds to sprout, branches to bear green fruit.

Huang Mei accepted the golden gourd with both hands, bowed deeply, and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Master."

The Buddha from the East smiled and said, "As long as you give me hope, I will not fear hardship."

My apprentice, the hardest thing is never the hardship itself, but the combination of hardship and hopelessness. It's the feeling of being unwilling to accept it, yet utterly helpless.

Huang Mei said, "This disciple understands."

"Good that you understand. Go now. If you encounter similar matters again, feel free to come to me." Donglai Buddha waved his hand and said.

Huang Mei thanked them again, then took the gourd and bid farewell to them, heading to Green Mountain to pick up Su Su, and then rode the cloud straight to Longevity Mountain...

"Senior sister, do you think there's a possibility that he won't be able to bring back the Tree-Saving Elixir?" In the orchard of Wuzhuang Temple on Longevity Mountain, Zhifeng suddenly asked the Dragon Girl beside him.

"Unless he is expelled from the sect by that person, it is absolutely impossible. Therefore, you should not harbor such unrealistic fantasies," said the Dragon Girl of Good Fortune calmly.

It would be ridiculous if Guanyin Bodhisattva could do something that the Buddha from the East could not.

Zhi Feng sighed and said self-reproachfully, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have argued with him intellectually. If you had fought him physically..."

The Dragon Girl raised her hand and said, "What's the point of saying all this now?"

During their conversation, the two suddenly caught a glimpse of a golden light rushing towards them, which quickly descended from the clouds and transformed into two figures.

At this moment, looking at the girl in the blue dress standing next to Huang Mei, she felt a strange sense of envy.

Upon realizing what was happening, he was suddenly shocked.

What's wrong with me?

I am a favored daughter of heaven, and others have always envied me. Why would I envy others?

Besides, what do I envy about her?

Thinking of this, ripples began to spread across her heart, and her emotions grew increasingly inexplicable and chaotic...

"Yellow Eyebrow, have you retrieved the divine elixir?" Sanzang asked anxiously from the crowd who were also waiting there.

Huang Mei nodded, and with a flick of his hand, summoned the golden gourd, instructing, "Wukong, please bury the tree roots back into the soil and prop the broken tree up again."

Sun Wukong exhaled a soft breath and said, "No trouble at all, this job is indeed mine to do!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he acted quickly, burying the roots and propping up the tree. In the process, his soul seemed to undergo some transformation and growth.

Huang Mei pulled out the gourd stopper, drawing out the divine liquid within, which transformed into drops of sweet rain above the tree trunk, spreading out rays of light as it landed on the tree.

Gradually, just as Maitreya had said, the fruit tree's roots and bark merged, and leaves and buds sprouted.

As a gentle breeze blew by, twenty-one ginseng fruits were seen hanging prominently among the branches and leaves...
