Journey to the West: Break the entire Western Heaven!

Actually, the White Bone Lady had not seen clearly who had struck her; all her attention had been on the shiny, bald head that suddenly burst out from around the corner. She never expected happiness to arrive so abruptly. Her heart trembled, she lost her focus, and then she was inexplicably blasted away.

Luckily for her, she had an amulet that could take a hit in her stead. It withstood the strike during that crucial moment. And she, terrified by that fearsome power, ran for her life without daring to look back, all the way back to the White Bone Cave cursing her fate.

Therefore, she did not know that it was Tang Sanzang who struck her, and deep down she still thought it was the monkey who had suddenly intervened.

The skeleton land spirit cautiously approached and said, "Lady... "

The White Bone Lady turned her head to see that the skeleton land spirit had lost his legs and was propping himself up with his hands on the ground.

The White Bone Lady frowned and asked, "What happened to you?"

With a crying tone, the skeleton land spirit said, "Lady, you asked me to observe closely, and so I went. But before I could even find a good spot, I saw a surge of Fist Power shooting into the sky. The shockwave rolled through, splitting mountains and shattering stones. Before I realized it, I lost my lower body... Lady, that Tang Sanzang is too ferocious, shouldn't we just give up?"

The White Bone Lady shook her head and said, "Give up? I've been 'killed' twice already and have even lost a life-saving magic treasure. How can we just let it go?"

The skeleton land spirit said, "Lady, then what do we do? That monkey by Tang Sanzang's side is too fierce."

The skeleton land spirit hadn't seen what happened, so he assumed that it was Sun Wukong who had delivered the blow, and said so accordingly.

The White Bone Lady heaved a sigh and blamed herself, "I was reckless. I thought it was a sure thing, little did I know the monkey would react so fast. But this matter is not over yet!"

After speaking, the White Bone Lady waved her hand and another corpse flew over. She entered the corpse and in a moment, the body revived, transforming into an old man dressed in a crane robe with a dragon-head cane in one hand and prayer beads in the other, chanting Buddhist scriptures, with gray at his temples.

The skeleton land spirit asked, "Lady, are you still going to try?"

The White Bone Lady replied, "Try again! If that monk still has even a bit of good intention left in his heart, after killing two people, he will feel somewhat guilty. This time, I will wait for the perfect moment to strike again!"

The skeleton land spirit said, "Lady, I wish you every success!"

The White Bone Lady nodded, took up her cane, and set off to block the road.

On the other side, Tang Sanzang and his companions were heading westward when they saw an old man approaching. This elder was staggering, gasping for breath, and as soon as he saw them, he immediately waved and called out, "Honorable monks, honorable monks! Have you seen my daughter and wife?"

The old man looked utterly anxious, truly resembling a father worried sick about the safety of his daughter and wife, a dutiful husband... At this moment, the White Lady's acting skills reached a peak. Every move she made was as believable as a real concerned father and loving husband, full of worry, care, and gentle kindness...

He staggered towards them, his target clearly Tang Sanzang.

Logically, any person with a shred of conscience upon seeing such an elderly man concerned for his daughter and wife, stumbling and at risk of falling, would step forward to help, or at the very least, lower their guard.

However, to the White Bone Lady's dismay, the group in front of her simply stood there, one picking his nose, another fidgeting with a stick, and yet another tilting his head as if watching a show, with no one stepping forward to offer help!

The most exasperating was that bald one, who just sat down on a large rock and wouldn't budge!

The White Bone Lady was puzzled, wondering if her acting skills had deteriorated. Could she no longer deceive even a few simpletons? Enjoy exclusive chapters from empire

At this thought, she decided to go for broke and staggered right in front of Tang Sanzang, hurling herself at him while calling out with a cry, "Help, help... help me up..."

However, what frustrated the White Bone Lady was that these guys actually took a collective step back!

Her body was already leaning, at this point, if she stood up, that would be too fake.

As the saying goes, act out the whole play, the White Bone Lady simply let herself fall to the ground and cried, "Ouch, my back, my legs, it hurts..."

The White Bone Lady thought to herself, now you guys should come over and help me up, right?

But then…

Clang!

Sha Wujing rummaged through a large basket and took out a set of stools, placed them on the ground, wiped them clean with his sleeve and called out, "Master, brothers, please sit."

One by one, they sat down, and then Sha Wujing started to cut up watermelon, distribute sunflower seeds…

For a time, the small valley was filled with the crackling sounds of eating seeds and the slurping of watermelon.

A few guys just sat there, eating watermelon and cracking seeds, watching the White Bone Lady in front of them bawling her eyes out.

The White Bone Lady, seeing the setup of these damn things, was immediately so angry she rolled her eyes and yelled, "Don't you have any conscience? Look at me, I'm in this state, and you're not helping, just eating melon and watching the excitement?"

When Tang Sanzang heard this, he clapped his hands and said, "Noble lady, you're right! How can we do this!"

The White Bone Lady's heart quivered, thinking there was hope, so she hastily said, "At least the high monk has a conscience, won't you come over and help me up?"

But before she could finish speaking, Tang Sanzang gestured and Sha Wujing took out half of a roasted beast leg from the basket, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, full of fragrance.

Then Sha Wujing took out a gleaming long knife, sliced the meat off the beast leg piece by piece, and then fed it to Tang Sanzang's mouth.

Tang Sanzang ate the meat and cracked the seeds, looked at the White Bone Lady, and said with a face full of enjoyment, "We should be eating roasted meat while watching, noble lady, don't mind me, please continue your crying."

The White Bone Lady was completely dumbfounded, sitting there, staring blankly at Tang Sanzang for a long while before asking, "Are you…really a monk?"

Tang Sanzang pointed to his bald head, then pointed to the kasaya on his body and said, "With this getup, is there anyone more orthodox than me? Noble lady, you'd better keep crying… I've been too bored on this journey, let us watch a little longer."

The White Bone Lady figured it out, what's in front of her was not a monk, this was a damn rascal!

She couldn't act anymore, pointed at Tang Sanzang and roared, "I'm old and fell down and cried, if you don't feel sympathy that's one thing, but you still want me to continue? Can you at least act like a human?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Sanzang frowned.

The White Bone Lady thought she had hit a nerve with this heartless monk, so she continued to scold, "As a monk, shouldn't you be compassionate? I have fed monks for dozens of years, not less than a hundred monks, and not one was as heartless as you! Have you practiced all your teachings on a dog's body?"

The White Bone Lady's purpose was clear, to sting this baldy with insults, make him come over out of shame, and personally help her up, that was the moment she was waiting for.

But, just as the White Bone Lady had only scolded him a bit, she saw the baldy tilt his head and said to Sun Wukong, "Wukong, he's cursing me."
