"Good! If you guys deceive me, Sun Wukong, don't blame my iron rod for its mercilessness!"

I snorted coldly and walked into the city with big strides.

With my divine power, I am fearless of everything. Even if there are mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead, at the very least, I can protect myself.

Seeing me like this, the three demons finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Along the way, the streets and alleys of the city were filled with notices of capturing monks, making me, dressed as a monk, particularly conspicuous. My master and the idiot were the same. Therefore, I quickly found my master and the idiot in the city.

"Alright, Great Sage can rest assured now.

"Later in the evening, our king has prepared a fine banquet in the palace for you all, hoping that you will enter the palace on time."

Yánglì Dàxiān chuckled lightly and waved his dusting cloth, handing a token into my hand.

After speaking, the three demons left directly without even looking back at my master.

"What exactly is going on here?"

Even my master was somewhat puzzled. Along the way, those demons would have loved to devour him, but now these three demons almost ignored him? It made him feel somewhat uncomfortable!

And when I told my master and the others about what I had seen and heard here, even the idiot became somewhat uncertain and said,

"Is there really such a horrifying matter here? Killing monks... isn't this disrespecting Mount Ling! Are those three demons not afraid of death? Or..."

As if thinking of something, Zhu Bajie suddenly fell silent, his contracted pupils indicating his inner unrest.

Just at that moment, my master couldn't help but speak again,

"This humble monk perceives the good manners of those three demons. There may be something we don't quite understand. We need to investigate it thoroughly."

I nodded.

My master is a kind person of ten lifetimes, sensitive to the nature of living beings. And to be honest, even I didn't sense any malice from those three demons. On the contrary, I could faintly perceive a radiance of merit from them.

"Could it be that killing monks can also bring merit?"

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel absurd.

An inexplicable intuition told me that the strangeness of this place is probably related to the king.

Perhaps it is only at today's banquet that we will see a glimpse of the strangeness of this place!

Soon, the sky gradually darkened.

A group of young monks came to our residence and led us into the palace.

However, at that moment, a sudden gust of black wind seemed to cover my vision!

I turned around abruptly, only to see a giant laughing skeleton buddha in the city, with a lotus made of white bones and people's oil as the candle flame!

Countless pale human skins floated in the air, and the divine bodies of the Six Ding and Six Jia were crucified on the city gate!

This scene was like hell on earth!

"Strange! Something is very strange!"

A chill surged from behind me to the top of my head. Even though I had seen corpses everywhere, the current scene still made it difficult for me to maintain my composure!
