Journey to the West: Break the entire Western Heaven!

Sun Wukong turned his head to look and saw a black-faced man glaring at him with wide eyes.

This guy was really black. From head to toe, except for the whites of his eyes and his teeth, everything was black...

Sun Wukong immediately laughed, "You barbarian, why are you so black? Could it be that you work with coal or pull rickshaws? Hahaha..."

The black-faced man became furious upon hearing this and pointed at Sun Wukong, "You hairy monkey dare to laugh at this Great King?"

Sun Wukong laughed out loud, "Hairy monkey, listen well, your grandpa is the very Great Sage Equalling Heaven who once drank and made a ruckus in the Heavenly Palace!"

Upon hearing this, the black-faced man burst into laughter, "So it's Bi Ma Wen! I was wondering who it could be."

Sun Wukong hated anyone bringing that up and immediately became very angry, pulling out his Jingu Bang and shouted, "You black thing, take this!"

The black-faced man didn't hesitate either, pulling out a long spear, "Let's fight then, you think I'm scared?"

As they spoke, Sun Wukong was already swinging his Jingu Bang, while the black-faced man parried with his long spear, and the two immediately engaged in fierce combat!

In the sky, the clanging sounds were like thunder. The Jingu Bang would one moment be as huge as a mountain, the next as small as a sewing needle, smashing when the opportunity arose, and stabbing when the moment was right! The black-faced man was no coward either; in his hands, the long spear was like a flying dragon, flipping and dancing around, blocking all of Sun Wukong's attacks and even managing to counterattack.

The two fought back and forth, neither able to gain the upper hand!

Between heaven and earth, mountains collapsed, the earth split open, the sky was filled with rumbling thunder, dense shadows of the staff and the elusive shadows of the spear could be seen everywhere.

The more they fought, the more red-eyed and crazed they became!

Sun Wukong couldn't believe it, this black thing was so formidable, achieving a draw with him!

With the crow of a rooster, the black-faced man snorted coldly, "Bi Ma Wen, it's time for breakfast. Let's stop here for today. After I have eaten and rested, we will fight again!"

Having said that, the black-faced man turned and ran!

Seeing this, Sun Wukong roared, "You black thing, where do you think you're going, take this!"

In the midst of speaking, he had already given chase.

The black-faced man, seeing that he couldn't escape, cursed loudly, "Bi Ma Wen, you don't appreciate the face given to you, huh?

If you want to fight, then let's fight for real!

Who's afraid of you."

While speaking, the black-faced man stomped his foot, and with a shake of his body, he transformed into a huge black bear—this guy was actually a black bear demon!

"So it turns out to be a black bear! Just great for slaughtering you, making bear paw stew!" Sun Wukong said, exercising the magic that made him as towering as the bear, wielding his Jingu Bang and smashing down!

The black bear demon snorted coldly, "Today I capture you to eat monkey brains!"

The two tangled in combat once more, but obviously, the black bear demon was at his limit, while Sun Wukong, with the ceaseless battle, was gradually recalling his former prowess, his fighting strength climbing continuously!

After all, he had been trapped under the Five Fingers Mountain for five hundred years, and no matter how great his skills once were, they had grown somewhat rusty after five hundred years without practice. This great battle was the perfect opportunity for him to hone his physical form again, how could he let it pass?

With each blow, the black bear demon was being beaten back step by step, lamenting in his heart, "I'm so hungry, I have no strength; how am I supposed to fight?"

Just as he was deep in thought, the monk below yawned, "Wukong, you keep fighting, your master is going to find a spot to nap..."

Having said that, the thieving monk didn't care about the two above fighting with heaven-shaking intensity and found a large rock, laid down on it, and started to sleep soundly.

Seeing this, a gleam appeared in the black bear demon's eyes, and with a grin, he said, "Now I have a plan!"

Amid their conversation, he furiously swung his long spear and smashed it down, creating a loud bang. Sun Wukong was sent flying back by the barbarous bear, a hundred meters away.

The Black Bear Spirit turned and dove toward Tang Sanzang, who was sleeping!

Seeing this, Sun Wukong's eyes bulged with rage and anxiousness, but he stood still and yelled, "Don't touch my master!"

The Black Bear Spirit laughed as he grabbed the snoring Tang Sanzang, "Bìmǎwēn, your master is in my hands. If you don't want him dead, then scram far away…"

Before he could finish, Sun Wukong had already run a thousand miles away, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Is this far enough? No? Should I go further?"

The Black Bear Spirit was dumbfounded, "You dead monkey, are you trying to preempt me?"

"Hurr-r-r…"

The snoring of Tang Sanzang came through.

The Black Bear Spirit furrowed his brow, cursing internally at how deeply the monk slept, but shouted, "Sun Wukong, I didn't expect you to be such a filial and good disciple. I'm taking your master away. If you don't want him to come to any harm, heh heh, you'd better behave!"

Sun Wukong nodded repeatedly, his face full of anxiety, worry, and extreme anger as he yelled, "Black Bear Spirit, let go of my master! If you dare take him away, I'll skin you alive sooner or later!"

Upon hearing this, the Black Bear Spirit's temper flared, "Hey... you little monkey scamp, you think I wouldn't dare to take him away?"

"If you really had the guts, you wouldn't still be here yapping. If you dare, just take him!" Sun Wukong taunted.

The Black Bear Spirit rolled up his sleeves and said, "Fine, I'll take him away. But don't you regret it!"

The White Dragon Horse leaped up, exclaiming, "Black Bear Spirit, listen up. If you dare harm a single hair on my master, I'll grind your bones into dust and stew you for meat!"

The Black Bear Spirit sneered, "Kid, you think you can threaten me? Not only am I going to take him today, I'll eat him once I'm back! I'd like to see what you can do about it!"

"You said it!" Sun Wukong and White Dragon Horse shouted in unison!

The Black Bear Spirit was momentarily stunned. Observing the expressions on these two, they didn't seem worried; in fact, they almost looked pleased?

Sun Wukong called out, "Black Bear Spirit, if you keep your word, I'll respect you as a real man."

White Dragon Horse called out, "If you don't, then you are nothing but a useless mutt! Not even worthy of being called a bear!"

The Black Bear Spirit stared at the pair of disciples in disbelief, then used the little wits he had left to analyze and come to a conclusion, "Hmph! Shut up. Don't think I don't know what you're scheming. Do you really think I would release him just because you pretend to quarrel as master and disciple? Dream on in the daytime!

I don't care if it's reverse psychology or whatever trick, I've caught this monk today, and I'm set on eating him. Even Buddha couldn't save him now!

I've said it!"

Having said that, the Black Bear Spirit flew away with Tang Sanzang in tow, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

Watching the two disappear into the distance, Sun Wukong and White Dragon Horse exchanged looks, seeing the amusement in each other's eyes.

White Dragon Horse said, "Eldest brother, look… the guy is gone, so shall we just say our goodbyes and head back home?"

Sun Wukong felt like nodding, but instead, he shook his head and said, "No, we can't. That black bear won't be able to keep our master. What if he says something he shouldn't, or master wakes up on the wrong side of the bed? I reckon he'll be back with bear paws before long. And if he sees us gone, can you guess what will happen?"

White Dragon Horse, with its long face askew, said, "Then we would definitely be the side dishes served after the bear paws. Since you knew the Black Bear couldn't handle it, why did you say that?"

Sun Wukong sighed and said, "Just taking a break… We can rest for a bit, then it won't be too late to go after."
