Chapter 350: Chapter 349: Encounter with the Reincarnator!

“Du Gang, why did you register a minor demon?”

As soon as they reached the inn, Kou Yingwu couldn’t help but voice his question.

Even Tao Xuanzhu had a puzzled look on her face, “Yes, we didn’t register the Demon King before, so why are you registering a minor demon now?”

Zhang Xinyi, who had questioned Du Gang during their journey, couldn’t wait to step forward and respond, “Du Gang said that he has found the child of destiny, as well as the demons related to this child. By catching and registering these demons, we can gain the maximum benefit!”

After saying this, she added, “Have you forgotten that every decision Du Gang made before has been the correct one?”

Upon hearing her say this, the other two looked at each other and laughed, “We are not doubting Du Gang, just curious about why he did this. Since it’s his decision, there should be no problem!”

Du Gang ignored them, walked to the window, sat down, and lost himself in thought while looking at the wall outside.

He was pondering why the fat monk, who had a combat power comparable to the Demon King, let Chen Xuanzang go through all of this. Was it indeed to propagate the Buddha Dharma, as portrayed in Journey to the West?

If there was a western heaven above, he wouldn’t have had any doubts. However, he knew that there was no western heaven in this world. The highest combat power belonged to those at the peak of the True God level, the same as that fat monk. This meant that all actions were the monk’s personal call.

Was he really that great?

Du Gang was somewhat unsure, or rather, he felt that this reason was too far-fetched. Even as an artefact spirit of the Heavenly Court, he wouldn’t set up such an unreasonable system.

“No!”

Du Gang suddenly remembered the world of missions he had previously experienced, where traps followed one after another. Who would dare call the Heavenly Court artifact spirit a fool?

So, Chen Xuanzang’s reason for propagating the Buddha Dharma does not stand to reason.

The fat monk, insisting on Chen Xuanzang acting like he did in the TV series, must have other reasons!

Understanding this point, Du Gang suddenly saw everything clearly, and the orientations for deduction also became clear.

His eyes looked towards the clouds in the distant sky, seeming to penetrate the layers of clouds, dispersing the fog, and glimpsing the final aim.

“Unseal!”

All of a sudden, Du Gang uttered these two words.

The other three were taken aback, not understanding his meaning, and moved in closer.

However, Du Gang continued to contemplate, his eyes flickering as he pondered whether what he was imagining was correct.

“It’s highly likely that his role is to unseal!”

In the TV series, Sun Wukong was ostensibly sealed by the Demon Subduing Sacred Flame Token, but in reality, he was sealed by a lotus of Tathagata.

But in this world, while Tathagata exists, he is not the Buddha Lord from the western heaven, but a master from this earth’s Buddhism, who achieved nirvana more than five hundred years ago.

This implies that to undo his seal, a unique secret technique might be needed.

The Data Dugo True Scripture!

Perhaps only someone who cultivates this method would be capable of undoing the seal. However, over these years, few, if any, people have managed to cultivate this method successfully.

Therefore, it is highly probable that this fat monk wants Chen Xuanzang to master the Data Dugo True Scripture, finally unlocking the seal…

And according to the plot trajectory, his plan is almost certainly going to succeed!

The current question is, why would he want to unlock Sun Wukong’s seal?

Is he a practitioner of the demonic path?

As soon as this thought came to mind, Du Gang shook his head, dismissing it. Despite being secretive, that big monk was primarily filled with Buddha-nature in his magic, which means he couldn’t be a practitioner of the demonic path.

Why would a master of Buddhism be intent on unsealing the seal of the primary Demon King?

Du Gang suddenly thought of the rumors about the top three masters in the world who intended to release the Demon King, just to slay him again.

At first glance, this piece of news seemed rather absurd, as though someone was playing a joke.

However, applying this reason here, it seemed highly appropriate, as though the truth was just so.

“With so many details laid out here, no matter how absurd the conclusion, it is a fact!”

“Furthermore, this conclusion isn’t absurd at all!”

Du Gang’s lips curved into a smile again, he was almost certain about the main plot of this world.

Everything that has happened so far matches the movies and the TV dramas, but the ending is different. In the end, Sun Wukong gets freed… to deal with him, everyone in the world must unite to stand a chance.

“Du Gang, the Son of Destiny has set off again…”

Off to one side, Kou Yingwu had been staring at the wall outside for Du Gang. He noticed that after being duped by Maitreya Buddha, Chen Xuanzang left with renewed confidence. Kou quickly reported it to Du Gang.

Du Gang glanced over and nodded, “Let’s go, this time we will go together!”

Once he was sure about the plot, Du Gang also found out about the location where Sun Wukong was sealed.

This had been mentioned in the original plot, so even if they lost track of Xuanzang, they could still find it.

Zhongyi School, one of the eighteen sects, had a leader whose strength was comparable to that of a Demon King.

On this day, Zhongyi School had four unexpected visitors.

At the peak where the school’s leader resided, the four of them surrounded Chen Xuanfeng.

“The Four Swords of Madness, how did you get here?” Chen Xuanfeng looked surprised, his eyebrows furrowed as he gazed at the four of them.

This was the heart of his Zhongyi School, but there had been no warning of their arrival. This showed that these four people had impressive skills.

“Hahaha!”

One of them laughed heartily, “So, our nickname is The Four Swords of Madness!”

Chen Xuanfeng’s eyebrows furrowed even further, “Instead of fulfilling your tasks in Mountain City, why have you come to the Zhongyi School?”

These four people had appeared in the city under the jurisdiction of Zhongyi School a few days earlier, and they had taken many missions. They were very strong, and he was wondering which prestigious family they belonged to.

But who would have thought that they would be right in front of him without anyone else knowing?

A mocking look appeared in the eyes of the four swordsmen, “Your Zhongyi School? It won’t be yours for much longer…”

One among them shook his head, somewhat impatiently, “Stop playing around, let’s capture this fellow and get some information about this world. We still have tasks to complete…”

Upon hearing this, the others too dropped their playful attitudes and became serious.

Although Chen Xuanfeng had never fought with these people, he knew that their abilities were no less than his own. The most urgent matter was to escape. Once he was safe, he could contact his peers from other schools and take back what was rightfully his.

But just as he was about to leave, one of the men sent a sword flying towards him. The sword, moving as if it had teleported, was suddenly lodged in his waist.

“How is this possible?!!”

Chen Xuanfeng was stunned, but before he could react, the four of them acted together, capturing him instantly.

“You guys…”

Only at this moment did he panic, “Who exactly are you people? I am the head of one of the Eighteen Schools…”

“Hehe, don’t worry, you won’t be the head for much longer…”

One of the men, who looked sinister, waved his hand and Chen Xuanfeng was captured in a separate space.

About a quarter of an hour later, he finally broke into a smile, “This guy is less resilient than I thought, he spilled all the beans…”

It wasn’t Chen Xuanfeng’s fault. These four had methods that he had never seen before, so he had naturally fallen into the trap.

“Tell us, what’s this world like!”

The sinister-looking man chuckled and began recounting. Soon, they all understood the situation in this world.

“So, the main storyline of this world is to undo Sun Wukong’s seal and then kill him?”

“If that’s the case, if we find that Maitreya Buddha’s disciple, could we gain more advantages?”

“There’s quite a possibility. Based on the information we have now, that guy named Chen Xuanzang obviously is the Son of Destiny…”

“If that’s the case, we should find him first and then plan our next move!”

Du Gang and the others followed Chen Xuanzang, heading west, and soon arrived at a place named Gao Family Village.

This time, they did not hide their identity, revealing themselves just as Chen Xuanzang was preparing to enter the village.

“It’s you, the expert from the Five Elements Sect!”

Upon seeing Du Gang and his companions, Chen Xuanzang’s face filled with excitement. In his eyes, these people were powerful and skilled, able to join him in exorcising demons and monsters – it could not get any better.

Du Gang gave a light smile, replying to him quite politely, “Master Xuanzang is also here for the Pig Demon here, right?”

Being addressed as a master for the first time, and by a person so highly skilled at that, Chen Xuanzang felt somewhat bashful.

Furthermore, he noticed Du Gang’s clear gaze, devoid of sarcasm, which led him to quickly grow fond of him. He nodded, “Yes, you guys are here too? Shall we join forces?”

Du Gang merely laughed and said, “Why not, let’s do it together!”

And so, the group of five pushed the door and walked in.

The moment they stepped in, they were shocked by the overwhelming noise and heat.

The entire Gao Family Village was filled with people, all of them enjoying roast suckling pig wholeheartedly.

Aside from Chen Xuanzang who could see through these people’s true forms, everyone else, including Du Gang, was completely unaware, and Kou Yingwu even swallowed nervously at the sight of the food.

Du Gang, having seen movies, knew what was going on behind the scenes and what these people were eating, and was somewhat speechless at Kou Yingwu’s reaction.

However, he didn’t expose the situation. Together with Chen Xuanzang, they took a seat under the guidance of a woman.

This time, with Du Gang and the others present, Chen Xuanzang was completely calm. His interaction with the woman was filled with confidence.

“We are exorcists, show your true forms!”

He was still so straightforward.

But the people, including the woman, acted as if they didn’t understand what he meant.

Just then, the door creaked open again.

Without turning his head, Du Gang knew it was Miss Duan.

“You guys went out to have fun without telling me?!”

Ever since parting ways with Chen Xuanzang, Miss Duan had been contemplating about him.

How brave must a person be, to exorcise demons with merely children’s songs?

Seeing another exorcist appear, Chen Xuanzang was once again reassured. Thinking that it was now a sure win, he hurriedly asked Miss Duan to join them.

But Miss Duan pretended to not care, walking over to Du Gang and the others and politely asked, “Do you guys want to do it, or should I?”

Du Gang spread his hands in a shrug, laughing, “You go ahead! We will back you up!”

Hearing this, Chen Xuanzang suddenly felt this approach was quite good and immediately nodded, “Yes, we will back you up!”

Looking at Chen Xuanzang’s expression, Miss Duan couldn’t help but roll her eyes, pushing him aside. Then with a bellow, she started attacking the leading woman.

“Gugu!”

“Gugu!”

The face of the leading woman distorted with every hit, making a bizarre sound reminiscent of a rooster’s crowing.

“Die!”

With a final shout from Miss Duan, the leading woman was blasted into a pile of sand.

At that moment, the other diners went crazy and rushed towards Miss Duan.

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

The scene quickly descended into chaos, but Miss Duan didn’t appear to be in any trouble, just as how it was portrayed in the movies, where these minions didn’t cause much inconvenience to the protagonist.

Just then, the Pig King, disguised as a human, made his appearance.

With a greasy face and a grin, he cut quite a dashing figure.

At that moment, Du Gang’s expression changed, and he quickly sent a message to the other three.

“Someone is approaching, four reincarnators. Be ready, attack them as soon as they enter!”

He had more or less figured out the connection between the Worlds of Quests and the movie by then. Having a clear estimate of the situation, he was now certain that the native characters wouldn’t appear at this time.

This indicated that the four newcomers must be reincarnators. Because, this Pig Demon, whose strength was merely at Demon King Level, wouldn’t attract much attention. Only reincarnators who knew something would come to find them.

All three of them didn’t respond physically, but all were ready without exception.

“Creak!”

As the Pig King was battling Miss Duan, the door swung open again.

Everyone within the village turned their heads to look.

Four men dressed in the attire of the Zhongyi School walked in slowly.

“I am Chen Xuanfeng, the Headmaster of the Zhongyi School, greetings to all…”

The man leading the group was fairly amicable, greeting the others the moment he entered.

Just as he finished speaking, Du Gang suddenly roared and lunged at them.

“Attack!”

At his command, the other three simultaneously launched their strongest attacks, giving no quarter whatsoever.

“What?!”

The newly arrived four were taken aback, completely failing to understand why the people here would attack the moment they saw them.

By the time they realized what was happening, it was already too late. The four attackers were already upon them.

“Kill!”

In the blink of an eye, the two groups clashed.

“You guys…”

Miss Duan, who was initially fighting, and Chen Xuanzang who was observing the fight from the side, were both stunned.

“Boom!”

The shockwave from the hit directly shattered a pillar.

“Gulp!”

The smiling, greasy-faced Pig King gulped, watching the duel between the two groups displaying incredibly formidable power. He was left completely dumbfounded.

Since when did Demon Kings become so common?

Moreover, they are all fighting on his territory?

No matter which group would come out victorious, they were all human. This meant that no matter who won, he, the Pig King, was certain to die!

Escape!

At this moment, the Pig King had only one thought in his mind!

“Whoosh!”

Without any hesitation, his body turned into a whirlwind, quickly escaping towards the rear window of the room.
