Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything

Although she appeared to be just a little girl around four or five years old, she had killed a Demon Soldier level creature with a single move and was able to command spell-like powers, which unequivocally showcased that the little girl possessed the strength of a Demon General.

Yet, having such strength, she was so timid? Instead, she turned around and ran away?

This situation left Jiang Liu and Daoji looking at each other in dismay, utterly stunned.

"Senior brother? Are we that scary?" Daoji turned his head, looking utterly baffled as he asked Jiang Liu.

"This little witch, although her strength is terrifying, she must have some problems with her mind," Jiang Liu's mouth twitched slightly, and he continued, as if this was the only explanation that made sense.

Initially, seeing that the little witch's strength was terrifying, both Jiang Liu and Daoji had been preparing to find a way to escape with their lives, but now, since she had turned to run away first, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Perhaps due to being overly frightened, the little witch, in her haste to escape, actually stumbled and fell to the ground, rubbing a swelling bump on her head, and began crying softly.

Looking at the little girl who seemed only four or five years old, sitting on the ground crying alone, Jiang Liu thought for a moment and decided to walk over and talk to her.

Since this little witch was so scared of him, he needed to figure out why, after all.

"Senior brother, be careful, our master said that the demons in the Demon-Suppressing Hall are all cruel and cunning. Her appearance might be a trick to deceive us."

Although it seemed safe for the moment, this little witch still possessed an unmatched power, so Daoji felt it was better to keep a respectful distance, who knew if she was deceiving them?

"Relax, if she was really deceiving us, why would she have shown such a powerful force just now? Isn't that just making us wary of her? Moreover, if she really wanted to harm us, would she need to be so roundabout?" patting Daoji's shoulder, Jiang Liu replied.

This statement made Daoji pause, it did seem reasonable.

"You, you stay away, I, I'm not afraid of you, don't come closer, I, I'm super fierce..." the little witch, sitting on the ground and crying softly, seeing Jiang Liu approaching, scrambled backward and, with the frailest expression, uttered the fiercest words.

While she spoke, she deliberately bared her teeth to look fierce, showing two tiny sharp canines, which instead gave her a cute appearance.

Although this little witch was timid and seemed very scared, she still possessed a power that he couldn't resist, so Jiang Liu didn't get too close.

After stopping in his tracks, he tried to show a rather kind smile, "Little girl, don't be afraid, I mean no harm, I'm a good person, I just want to talk to you."

"Wow, just, just like this, so scary, I know you are a good person, you are the most terrifying good person people talk about...".

Although Jiang Liu showed a kind smile and spoke softly, it did not comfort the little witch at all; instead, her reaction grew more intense, as if this kind demeanor was even more terrifying than a fierce and ferocious expression.

"A terrifying good person? What the hell is that…" Jiang Liu's face darkened, listening to the little witch's words, as if being a good person was the most terrifying thing?

"Alright, no more nonsense, I told you, I am a bad guy, if you don't behave, I will be rude!" His kind smile fading, his expression turned dark, and Jiang Liu menacingly threatened.

This time, the little witch quieted down, though she still looked terrified, she dared not move around or make a sound anymore.

Indeed, calling himself a good person only made her more fearful, but showing the demeanor of a villain actually calmed her down.

Jiang Liu inwardly ridiculed this, yet his expression remained unchanged. He asked sternly, "First, tell me, why are you so afraid of humans?"

"Ever since I was little, my father always warned me that humans are terrifying, especially monks like you who are bald. You all love to convert demons, making us into good demons. Just a few years ago, I saw Uncle Yellow Lion King being converted..."

The Little Witch looked at Jiang Liu with fright, not daring to hide anything, and candidly answered, recalling the scene when a powerful demon had been converted, looking quite terrified.

Upon saying this, the Little Witch fell silent for a moment, her gaze sweeping over the nine incense scars on Daoji's head, and said, "Also, my father said, the more spots a monk has on his head, the more terrifying he is."

"So, in the cognition of demons in this Demon Cave, is evil considered the nature, and goodness a disgrace? Thus, the values of these demons are completely opposite to those of humans, aren't they?"

In just a few words, combined with the Little Witch's attitude, Jiang Liu was able to roughly understand what was going on.

In simple terms, humans pride themselves on being kind and fear those who are evil and cruel, avoiding them with respect. If there truly is a demon capable of reversing the nature of humans, turning kind people into those who are evil and cruel, then such a demon is indeed very terrifying.

Similarly, the demons in the Demon Cave pride themselves on being evil and cruel, and consider goodness shameful.

Moreover, Buddhist monks like to convert demons, so in the eyes of these demons, monks who can change the nature of cruel demons into kind demons are seen as the most terrifying people?

Moreover, this Little Witch had witnessed her so-called Uncle Yellow Lion King, presumably a malevolent and strong demon, being converted right before her eyes, which could be said to have caused a psychological shadow; therefore, seeing Daoji and himself had terrified her into fleeing.

Especially since Daoji's head is marked with nine incense scars.

As for Jiang Liu? Because he was wearing a Vidyaraja Crown, it wasn't visible; otherwise, Jiang Liu really wondered if his twelve incense scars could have knocked her unconscious from fear.

Jiang Liu's question had already been answered, and seeing Jiang Liu pondering, the Little Witch spoke, "I've answered everything you asked, can I go now? I told you, my demonic aura is formidable, righteous aura cannot invade me, you, you won't be able to convert me..."

"Brother, let her go..." Daoji, seeing Jiang Liu hesitating and seemingly not prepared to let the Little Witch leave, whispered softly.

After all, the Little Witch's cultivation level was much more terrifying than either of theirs. Although she was afraid of them, who knew if she might suddenly attack?

Staying with her, one always felt a lack of security in life.

Jiang Liu harbored his inner hesitations and did not respond.

Indeed, keeping the Little Witch by his side was very dangerous, but at the same time, in Jiang Liu's view, it also had its benefits.

If he could keep her by his side, wouldn't fighting and leveling up in the Demon-Suppressing Hall be like sweeping away everything? Discover more stories at empire

From the perspective of a video game, it was like having someone power-level him.

As the saying goes, high risk has high return; faced with the risk and immense benefits, Jiang Liu's inner self wavered...
