The demonically powerful Sai Tai Sui, wielding a long spear, ferociously thrust it towards Tang Sanzang with overwhelming and intimidating force.
"Well done!" Tang Sanzang shouted, wielding his Nine-Ring Staff and smashing it forward.
This treasure bestowed by the Buddha appeared to possess little power, but in Tang Sanzang's hands, it felt as heavy as a thousand jun. With a whistling sound, the staff slammed onto the long spear.
Boom—
Sai Tai Sui immediately felt a mountain-like force crashing against his weapon. Even with his tall stature and formidable strength, he couldn't help but take half a step back from the impact.
Having suffered a hidden loss, Sai Tai Sui immediately changed direction, his spear piercing the void, carrying boundless demonic energy as it stabbed towards Tang Sanzang's chest.
This spear was extremely treacherous; if it struck, Tang Sanzang, a mere mortal, would undoubtedly die.
Seeing this, Sun Wukong couldn't help but want to intervene. Not only him, but even Guanyin and the others in the high sky were watching with bated breath.
"Could this demon be holding a grudge from the last time and is now resorting to ruthless measures?" Di Ting said.
"Impossible," Guanyin shook her head.
He seized the opportunity to raise his Nine-Ring Staff and smash it towards Sai Tai Sui's waist.
This strike was powerful and heavy, causing Sai Tai Sui to wince in pain and retreat.
Tang Sanzang pursued relentlessly, wielding the Nine-Ring Staff with fierce and imposing momentum.
The surrounding lesser demons cheered and rooted for their king.
Seeing this, Sai Tai Sui suddenly changed direction, launching a surprise attack with a returning spear.
This spear came unexpectedly, and even Tang Sanzang was somewhat unable to dodge, resulting in his kasaya being pierced.
Everyone was shocked.
Fortunately, Tang Sanzang was unharmed. He adjusted his stance and attacked again.
The two clashed, unleashing an earth-shattering battle.
Despite Tang Sanzang's seemingly weak appearance, when it came to actual combat, his battle awareness was in no way inferior to Zhu Bajie and the others. Moreover, with the enhancement of demonic energy, his strength was even more formidable.
After a dozen or so exchanges, Sai Tai Sui, seeing that the opportunity was ripe, immediately retreated, then took out the Purple-Gold Bell from his bosom.
As soon as the Purple-Gold Bell appeared, he shook it with a hint of a smile.
With the first shake, intense flames erupted, like a fire dragon attacking Tang Sanzang.
"Master, be careful!" Seeing this, Sun Wukong immediately took action.
Wielding his Golden Cudgel, he stood in front of Tang Sanzang, while Zhu Bajie immediately came behind Tang Sanzang and led him away.
Watching the flames burn, Sun Wukong flickered, dodging the attack.
Seeing this, Sai Tai Sui waved the bell twice, and suddenly smoke arose, thick and pervasive, obscuring Sun Wukong's vision. He immediately used his Fiery Eyes to target Sai Tai Sui.
Just as Sai Tai Sui was about to wave the bell a third time, Sun Wukong rushed forward. Caught off guard, he slammed his cudgel heavily on Sai Tai Sui's wrist.
Sai Tai Sui cried out in pain, and the Purple-Gold Bell immediately fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Sun Wukong quickly picked it up and chased after Sai Tai Sui.
Sai Tai Sui was shocked and immediately fled back to his cave, and the other lesser demons scattered in all directions.
Sun Wukong did not recklessly pursue, returning to Tang Sanzang's side: "Master, are you alright?"
"I'm fine. That demon has some tricks," Tang Sanzang said.
If it were a contest of pure strength, he wouldn't be afraid, but when it came to battles involving treasures, he was somewhat struggling.
"This demon is also cowardly, relying on this treasure to act recklessly," Sun Wukong fiddled with the Purple-Gold Bell in his hand, then presented it to Chu Hao: "Brother Chu Hao, it's useless for this old Sun to keep it; take it."
"How can I be so presumptuous?" Chu Hao declined.
"Brother Chu Hao, I'm really giving it to you," Sun Wukong said generously.
Helpless, Chu Hao had no choice but to accept, then said, "In that case, I have some immortal fruits here, consider it a return gift."
Saying that, he took out a few immortal fruits and handed them to Sun Wukong.
In the high sky, Guanyin, seeing this scene, was dumbfounded.
Hey, hey, hey, what do you guys mean? Isn't this all stuff from my Western Paradise? Are you guys even putting on a show of brotherly affection?
Guanyin's face turned ashen.
The Purple-Gold Bell, which her Western Paradise had just spent a great price to retrieve, was not only snatched away again, but also returned to Chu Hao's hands as if nothing had happened.
What's even more infuriating is that Chu Hao actually used the immortal fruits he stole from Western Paradise as a favor to Sun Wukong and the others.
This scene made Guanyin spit blood in anger.
Shameless, too shameless.
"Great Master Guanyin, this is unbearable," Di Ting, who also knew about the affairs of Western Paradise, said immediately.
Guanyin naturally knew, and she descended directly to the mortal realm.
Auspicious clouds floated from the high sky, and Guanyin, bathed in divine light, appeared before everyone.
"Sun Wukong, this Purple-Gold Bell is something refined by the Supreme Lord Lao, and was stolen by that demon. Now that it has been recovered, let me take it back," Guanyin's voice was ethereal and extremely holy.
"But Great Master Guanyin, I've already given it to Brother Chu Hao," Sun Wukong said innocently.
Hearing this, Guanyin was momentarily embarrassed and looked at Chu Hao.
Chu Hao smiled slightly: "Since it's Lord Lao's possession, I'll go return it to him."
I believe you! (sarcastically)
Guanyin naturally didn't believe him, and could only say: "That demon is this seat's mount, who ran away from his master and stole the Supreme Lord Lao's treasure. As his master, I should personally handle this."
"So it turns out to be Great Master Guanyin's mount. However, this demon not only abducted the Queen of Zhu Zi Kingdom, but also burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil. How does Great Master Guanyin intend to deal with him?" Chu Hao asked.
"Allow me to take him back, and I will certainly teach him well," Guanyin didn't elaborate.
"Then please, Great Master Guanyin, take back that demon," Chu Hao continued.
Guanyin was about to say yes, but suddenly realized something was wrong.
That's right, the Purple-Gold Bell is still in Chu Hao's hands.
She immediately understood that she had been led into a trap. She adjusted her mind and said: "I will naturally take away that demon, but I must also take back the Purple-Gold Bell."
"Great Master Guanyin, there's no need to trouble you with this treasure. I'll go return it myself," Chu Hao would never hand it over.
Guanyin had no choice but to transmit her voice: "Prison God Chu Hao, what else do you want?"
"Great Master Guanyin, what are you saying? I didn't ask for anything," Chu Hao replied.
Tang Sanzang and his disciples, seeing the two staring at each other without speaking, were puzzled.
"Great Master Guanyin?" Tang Sanzang called out.
Guanyin then realized that this was not the time to discuss this, and could only transmit her voice: "Prison God Chu Hao, this matter is of great importance, I hope you consider it carefully."
"Consider carefully? I'm being very careful," Chu Hao smiled slightly.
In the end, Guanyin had no choice but to wave her hand and directly pull Sai Tai Sui out of the cave.
Then, she took him away temporarily. As for the matter of the Purple-Gold Bell, she planned to talk to Chu Hao later.
"Goodbye!" Chu Hao waved with a smile.
