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

Not long after.

Kui Mulang rode the clouds to the sky above the royal palace of Zhibao Xiang Kingdom. He looked down intently and soon saw his wife and two sons by the pond.

However, several demons were dining near the artificial hill not far away, which made him hesitant to go down.

Hidden among the clouds, the old demon pondered for a long time, and gradually came up with an idea. He then transformed into a handsome man resembling Pan An, and landed directly outside the palace gate, addressing the welcoming ambassador:

"The Third Prince Consort has come to see Your Majesty; please convey his message."

Seeing his luxurious attire and extraordinary bearing, the eunuch immediately obeyed the order and rushed to the royal garden. He addressed the king, who was toasting with Sanzang and others, saying, "Your Majesty, three princes-in-law have come to pay their respects outside the palace."

The king was taken aback: "Three prince consorts? Where did these three prince consorts come from?"

Suddenly, it dawned on him, and he exclaimed, "Could it be that the monster has come knocking on our door?"

At the next stop, Sun Wukong said with a smile, "It's good that he came. I, Old Sun, don't need to go looking for him anymore. It's just right to eliminate evil completely."

By the pond, Baihua Xiu, who had been eavesdropping, suddenly changed her expression and hurriedly went to the front of the banquet: "Father, since we know that it is a monster, we should not let him in."

Sun Wukong glanced at her and said, "Princess, why are you being so confused?"

With us, master and disciple, here, the monster had no choice but to pay its respects and enter.

If we weren't there, he probably would have swaggered in.

Can these palace guards stop heroes of the martial world, or demons and monsters?

The king thought what he said made a lot of sense, and immediately ordered the eunuch to bring the three princes-in-law over...

In the blink of an eye.

The imposing Kui Mulang strode into the Imperial Garden, causing Baihua to pause in surprise, her heart fluttering slightly.

The other person's appearance clearly showed the splendor of their past life, completely different from their current appearance as an old monster.

At the dining table, a strange light flashed in Sun Wukong's eyes, and his mood suddenly became complicated.

If Baihua Xiu could recognize Kui Mulang's previous appearance, how could he not?

You should know that back when he was still the Great Sage Equaling Heaven in Heaven, he and the Twenty-Eight Constellations were just drinking buddies!

Behind Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing exchanged a glance, both understanding that the other must have recognized this old acquaintance as well...

"Your son-in-law, Li Xiong, greets Your Majesty."

Kui Mulang's gaze swept over everyone before he finally bowed to the old king.

The king knew he was a demon, so he subconsciously looked at Huang Mei and Wukong.

Sun Wukong suddenly jumped out, pulled the golden cudgel from his ear, and slammed it hard into the opponent's face.

Kui Mulang neither dodged nor retaliated, letting the iron rod grow larger and larger in his pupils.

He knew very well that with his face and the name Li Xiong that he had revealed, Sun Wukong would not actually kill him.

This was also the main reason why he appeared in his previous life's appearance, so as to avoid being suppressed by this group of people before he could even begin to implement his plan.

"Stop!" Baihua Xiu was unaware of this and was shocked, so she hurriedly shouted.

"Buzz!"

Sun Wukong suddenly stopped his golden cudgel in front of Kui Mulang's forehead and asked in a deep voice, "Why didn't you dodge?"

"I have no grudge against you, and I don't believe you would kill me," Kui Mulang said.

Baihua Xiu felt relieved, opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Sun Wukong's expression shifted between light and dark, and he subconsciously glanced at Huang Mei.

Huang Mei pursed her lips and suddenly asked, "Li Xiong, do you know what officials fear most?"

Kui Mulang frowned and asked, "What are you trying to say?"

Huang Mei laughed and said, "What I want to say is that the worst thing for an official is to be greedy; greed for money, greed for sex, greed for affection, and greed for love are all forms of greed."

When greed grows unchecked, one forgets their original intentions.

Li Xiong, what was your original aspiration?

Kui Mulang was shocked, but he forced himself to remain calm and said, "I don't understand what you're saying."

After saying that, he looked at the king and said, "Your Majesty, I feel that you may have some misunderstanding about me."

Sun Wukong licked his lips, silently put away his golden cudgel, and prepared to see what his old friend was planning.

At this point, the king asked, "What misunderstanding?"

Kui Mulang said earnestly, "My son-in-law is from Boyue Village, Wanzishan, east of the city."

Thirteen years ago, when I was leading dozens of servants on a hunting trip, I rescued a woman from the jaws of a magnificent tiger and brought her back to the manor for treatment.

But after she was awakened, perhaps the tiger had frightened her out of her mind, causing her to forget many things, so she stayed at my manor.

As time went on, we fell in love, got married, and had two children.

Unexpectedly, not long ago, when I returned home from hunting, I found that my wife and children had disappeared.

After searching all the way to Baoxiang Kingdom, I heard that the Third Princess had returned to the capital with two children. Only then did I realize that I had unknowingly become the Third Prince Consort of Baoxiang Kingdom.

The old king, seated at the head of the table, listened in a daze.

This explanation is completely contrary to the version told by Tang Sanzang and his disciples.

"Nonsense."

While he was stunned, Pigsy spoke up decisively: "You wicked demon, if we leave, how effective will your attempts to distort the truth and spout nonsense in this palace be? We're still here now."

"I understand now, it must be you who are trying to bewitch His Majesty."

Kui Mulang said, "Look at your appearance, with a pig nose, pig face, and pig ears, you are clearly a pig demon who has become a spirit."

Pigsy flew into a rage and summoned his nine-toothed rake with magic: "How dare you! I'll beat you into a pig's head right now!"

"Bajie".

Sanzang had been observing the king's expression, and upon seeing him slightly furrow his brow, he immediately gave a soft rebuke.

"hehe."

Kui Mulang sneered, then said to the king, "Your Majesty, I have a way to prove who is lying."

King Baoxiang paused slightly, then turned to the monk Sanzang and asked, "What does the Holy Monk think?"

"We are upright and honest, and we are not afraid of any test," Sanzang said in a deep voice, his hands clasped together.

"What a virtuous monk!" King Baoxiang praised sincerely, then instructed, "Li Xiong, speak frankly."

Kui Mulang nodded, then suddenly pointed at Baihuaxiu and the two demons: "The truth cannot be hidden, and falsehood cannot be made true. The princess and these two children, as firsthand witnesses, are sufficient to prove right and wrong."

At this point, he abruptly changed the subject and said sincerely:

"Princess, children, do not be afraid. In front of your father and grandfather, just tell the truth. These thugs would never dare to commit violence in the palace."

At this moment, he was extremely grateful that he had listened to what the envoy Huian said and awakened Baihuaxiu's memories of her past life as a jade maiden.

Otherwise, he really wouldn't dare to gamble on thirteen years of marriage.

In an instant, all eyes were on Baihua Xiu and the two demons. Baihua Xiu took a deep breath, stood firmly beside Li Xiong, and addressed the king on the throne:

"Father, he is indeed my husband; my two children and I were not rescued by the people around you, but were kidnapped by them."

I dared not offend them, fearing it would bring death upon myself and my two children, so I acquiesced to their story of demonic abduction.

His words caused a stir throughout the room.

Pigsy jumped up first, shouting, "Baihua Xiu, are you crazy?"

"I'm not crazy, I just can't stand by and watch you frame my husband," Baihua Xiu said resolutely.

Pigsy: "..."

In the passenger seat.

Tripitaka clasped his hands together, chanted Amitabha Buddha, and then turned to King Baoxiang and said:

"What the princess says is not true; Your Majesty, please see the truth!"
