Chapter 194 Mind your own business, fate has the final say.
"Sun Wukong, when you put on the golden headband, you will regain your power..."
The voice echoed in his mind, and Supreme Treasure felt a little uneasy.
"Wearing the golden headband grants power... the power of Sun Wukong?"
He looked at the golden hoop on the stone platform and murmured to himself. Memories flashed through his mind, making him feel somewhat dazed.
As if guided by fate, he unconsciously walked toward the stone platform.
He didn't want to be a monkey, but what if being a monkey could grant him unparalleled cultivation, allowing him to retrieve the Moonlight Box from Zixia and save his brothers?
The area around Mount Wuyue was filled with sandstorms, and life was hard. His brothers were those who had grown up and lived together since childhood, and were closer than blood brothers.
Even when facing demons, these mortals would rush to their aid.
Knowing they were no match, they still fought to the death; he had to acknowledge that devotion.
With a light breath, Supreme Treasure slowly reached out and touched the golden hoop on the stone platform.
"Supreme Treasure... Supreme Treasure..."
In a daze, he seemed to hear Zixia's voice.
When he opened his eyes, he found himself back in the cave. Before him stood Zixia, her eyes wide, who asked curiously, "Why didn't you wake me last night?"
Remembering the punch he received last night, Supreme Treasure suddenly took a few steps back and hid in the corner of the wall.
"Hmm? What's wrong with you?" Fairy Zixia walked over, but Supreme Treasure retreated repeatedly to avoid her.
When Zixia reached out, he instinctively raised his hand to cover his head.
"Sit down," Zixia said, causing Supreme Treasure to instinctively squat down.
"Chair."
Supreme Treasure shifted his body and sat down in the chair, but dared not meet Zixia's gaze.
Zixia sat down next to Supreme Treasure, and seeing the look in his eyes, her heart suddenly tightened. "You saw her?"
"You really saw my sister? She came so quickly. What did she say to you?"
"Don't believe her, she's crazy!"
Zixia explained somewhat nervously, "Perhaps she fought me too fiercely in her past life. So Buddha wrapped us up together and turned us into a lamp wick, so that we could cultivate ourselves and resolve this grudge."
"Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned; the fighting is even fiercer now than before."
"Let's hurry up and go!"
She got up and was about to walk out of the cave when she found that Supreme Treasure remained unmoved.
Zixia turned her head and sat back down in her chair. "Do you think I'm schizophrenic?"
Supreme Treasure nodded silently, his face full of disbelief.
"I didn't!" Zixia explained anxiously, "That really is my sister!"
"Hey, you don't believe me, do you?"
She pulled out Supreme Treasure's right hand and tied it to her own left hand, which was adorned with the Purple Gold Divine Bell. "We'll tie our hands together, and you'll find out tonight."
After saying this, Zixia winked at Supreme Treasure.
boom!
In an instant, Supreme Treasure felt as if he had been punched in the heart.
At this moment, he couldn't muster any thoughts of resistance; he only felt that the woman in front of him had already taken root in his heart.
The Buddhist seal in his mind had dissipated considerably, and Supreme Treasure sensed some fragments of memory passing through the Buddhist seal and merging into his soul.
Before he knew it, Zixia had led him out of the Spider Cave and onto the desolate desert outside.
The two men, their hands tied together, faced the wind and sand and found a high slope.
For the entire afternoon, Supreme Treasure felt dazed. While searching for dry firewood in the desert, when the backs of their hands touched, he felt as if an electric current had passed through his body.
For some reason, Supreme Treasure wanted this period of time to last a little longer.
The desire to go back through the Moonlight Box and save the second-in-command no longer seemed so strong.
"That second-in-command is incredibly lucky. Chun Sanshi Niang can only find Tang Sanzang through me."
"If I disappear, she shouldn't harm the second-in-command, right?"
After comforting himself with a few words, Supreme Treasure felt much more cheerful, and even Zixia's smile became sweeter.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, night gradually enveloped the vast desert. When the air grew cooler, Supreme Treasure had already lit a campfire on the high slope.
Zixia leaned against him, rested her head on his shoulder, and fell asleep.
A night breeze blew in, and a faint fragrance wafted into his nose, easing much of his melancholy.
At that moment, the two of them were like a couple deeply in love.
Supreme Treasure looked up at the sky. Dark clouds covered the sky, making it pitch black. Only the light from the campfire in front of him drove away the surrounding darkness.
He murmured softly, "Looks like there won't be any moonlight tonight."
"Is that so?" Qingxia on his shoulder spoke indifferently, her cold voice sending a chill down Supreme Treasure's spine.
"You bitch, you can't escape my grasp."
He felt his shoulders relax, and stiffly turned his head to see Qingxia's indifferent and cold face and her eyes that carried a hint of murderous intent.
The moment their eyes met, Supreme Treasure unconsciously turned his head away.
Qingxia slowly rose, coldly staring at Supreme Treasure. Sensing the chill emanating from behind, Supreme Treasure turned to look at Qingxia, a smirk playing on his lips, and asked, "What is your surname?"
"His surname is Lin," Qingxia said indifferently.
"Oh~" Supreme Treasure nodded in realization, "So you're the Brigitte Lin my brother was talking about!"
"Your older brother?" Qingxia asked coldly, her expression unchanged.
"The guy you beat up yesterday is called Supreme Treasure."
"And what about you?"
"I am his twin brother, and my name is Supreme Jade."
"Supreme Treasure, Supreme Jade..." Qingxia said indifferently, "Trying to fool me?"
"Hey, you're really clever." Supreme Treasure awkwardly clasped his hands. "Actually, my older brother's real name is Qin Han, and my name is Qin Xianglin."
"What are you doing here?" Brigitte Lin's expression remained indifferent.
"Actually, I admire you very much." Supreme Treasure met Qingxia's cold gaze and spoke quietly.
Qingxia pointed her jade finger at Supreme Treasure's nose, "You admire me?"
She noticed the ropes binding her hands, then glanced at Supreme Treasure at the end of the ropes, and her tone grew even colder, "Hmm?"
"It's more than just admiring you!" Supreme Treasure grabbed Qingxia's hand and said with deep affection, "I'm terrified of losing you!"
"That's why I'm tied to you, so we can run away together..."
Qingxia grabbed the rope and pulled hard, shattering it into pieces.
She punched Supreme Treasure in the nose and said indifferently, "Loving me comes at a price!"
Supreme Treasure felt a moment of dizziness, and the familiar feeling of vertigo returned, causing him to fall asleep immediately.
When he woke up again, Supreme Treasure saw a pair of bright eyes and a gentle and beautiful face in front of him. Supreme Treasure understood that Zixia had "returned".
He said with a hint of helplessness, "Don't even mention it, your sister absolutely hates you!"
"I'll lie to her tonight and say I've killed you, so you can live in peace from now on."
Supreme Treasure gazed at the lovely girl before him, his fingers digging into the sand at his feet, and whispered, "So I want to show her one of your tokens. What necklaces, jewelry, gold and silver jewels, the Moonlight Box, or something like that..."
"Alright! But those things are useless." Zixia reached for the Purple-Green Sword beside her and handed it to Supreme Treasure, her face full of anticipation. "Show her my Purple-Green Sword tonight, and she'll definitely believe you!"
"Hmm... that's fine too." Supreme Treasure took the Purple and Green Sword from Zixia's hand, got up and walked up the hill.
He faced the sunlight, looked at the purple and green sword in his hand, suddenly gripped the hilt, and pulled it out halfway.
Sunlight streamed down, and the sword's aura was imposing!
Even though Supreme Treasure didn't recognize the sword, he subconsciously murmured, "What a fine sword!"
At that moment, Zixia, sitting below, had tears welling up in her eyes, and she murmured to herself, "It was him..."
He looked at the somewhat broad back in the sunlight, got up and walked to his side, smiling as he said, "Hey, before it gets dark, take me to the market."
"OK!"
Without much thought, Supreme Treasure agreed instinctively.
He returned the Purple and Green Sword to Zixia and took the lead in walking out of the desert.
He had never been to this area before, but it felt as if he had walked through it many times in his mind, and he was very familiar with the roads here.
In just half a day, the two appeared outside a market.
Supreme Treasure looked up at the adobe city wall and the words "Luoyang Market" above it, feeling somewhat dazed.
He paid no attention and led Zixia into the market.
As soon as they entered the market, Supreme Treasure noticed that Zixia's expression seemed a little off. He asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"My heart is pounding so hard," Zixia said slowly, looking around.
"What should we do then?"
"Come on." Zixia pulled Supreme Treasure's arm and walked towards the bottom of the city wall.
Not far behind the two, at a pork stall, Sha Wujing, holding a crescent-shaped staff, spoke to Zhu Bajie, who had his head resting on the pork stall, saying, "Now that our eldest brother has changed, he's with Fairy Zixia. Could it be that Fairy Zixia was involved in capturing Master?"
"Let's stick close to him and not alert him!"
Pigsy's head swayed on the pork stall, and he replied in a muffled voice, "That eldest brother of mine, he was supposed to scout ahead, but he actually kidnapped Master and handed him over to the Bull Demon King to marry Niu Xiangxiang. Now he's even teaming up with Fairy Zixia... Sigh!"
"In terms of wisdom and magic, I've always been a little bit better than him, but now that there's Fairy Zixia, he's probably a little bit better than me."
Sha Wujing turned his head, "Isn't there me too?"
"It's because of you, this burden, that he's a little taller than me," Pigsy said, turning his head.
Just then, a jade-like finger pointed at his head through the pork stall and said, "Cut half of this pig's head for me, thank you."
Pigsy stood up and opened his mouth to bite the finger, which frightened the woman so much that she took several steps back.
He walked around the pork stall, stood in front of the woman, and said, "I'm not selling pig heads, but would you like a pig's penis?"
"Ah!!" The woman screamed in fright and immediately turned and ran away.
Sha Wujing chuckled as he watched, then turned his gaze to the two figures, Supreme Treasure and his companion, in the distance.
Beneath the city wall's battlements, Zixia pulled Zhizunbao to a corner, looked around somewhat nervously, and whispered while holding Zhizunbao's arm, "My sweetheart is nearby."
"Did you see him?"
For some reason, a sense of loss suddenly welled up in Supreme Treasure's heart.
"No," Zixia replied, "because my Purple and Green Sword is sending out a beeping signal."
"Where did that beeping sound come from?" Supreme Treasure looked down at the motionless sword in Zixia's hand, his face full of doubt.
"Beep-beep-beep." Zixia beeped a few times. "Right?"
"You're making a 'du' sound, but the sword isn't?"
"Oh, I know you can't hear me, that's why I'm whispering it to you."
Zixia clutched the sword, "It's over, I'm so scared."
"I'm not lying to you, I'm really scared."
"What are you afraid of?" Supreme Treasure stared at Zixia and spoke softly.
"This marriage was arranged by fate. Do you think I should be afraid?"
"Here we go again." Supreme Treasure's eyes darkened, and he felt somewhat annoyed.
He realized that the powerful and stunningly beautiful girl in front of him was somewhat mentally unstable.
For some reason, this made him feel a sense of distress.
"Yes, my heart is pounding, my sword is clattering." Zixia turned to look at Supreme Treasure, "What should I do? How should I tell him? How should I tell him?"
"Then tell him that this marriage was arranged by God."
"What if he doesn't like me? What if he has someone he likes?"
Supreme Treasure shrugged and said, "Why do you care so much? Heaven's arrangement is the most important!"
Zixia Fairy looked directly at Supreme Treasure, "Is that so?"
"Isn't what fate has arranged enough for you to be arrogant about?"
"Yes!" Fairy Zixia took a deep breath and said to Supreme Treasure, "He's here."
At this moment, a look of surprise and delight flashed in Supreme Treasure's eyes. His lips trembled slightly as he said, "It can't be me, can it?"
"Hey! It's you! How did you know? It was you!" Fairy Zixia grabbed Supreme Treasure's arm, jumping for joy. "You don't know, I didn't know how to tell you!"
"You're so smart."
She stared intently at Supreme Treasure, "You said that fate-arranged marriages are the most important, so let's start this relationship right now, Supreme Treasure!"
"Give me a kiss first."
Looking at the stunningly beautiful woman before him, Supreme Treasure suppressed his pounding heart. "Oh ho, she's come to me of her own accord."
"Bring it on! Who's afraid of who!"
"Alright!" Fairy Zixia suddenly pushed Supreme Treasure to the edge of the city wall, slowly closed her eyes, and moved closer to Supreme Treasure.
In an instant, a fragrant breeze wafted over him, and Supreme Treasure felt his heart pounding uncontrollably again.
He took a deep breath, followed his heart, hooked his right arm around the back of Zixia's head, and kissed her fiercely.
In an instant, he felt the seed that had just sprouted in his heart grow stronger, take root, and sprout.
Beside the pork stall, Pigsy and Sandy saw this scene, exchanged a glance, and simultaneously opened their mouths wide.
Sha Wujing pursed his lips. "Second Brother, should we still go look for Eldest Brother?"
Pigsy suddenly smacked Sandy on the head, "If you want to die, go ahead and do it yourself!"
"Let's go to Niujiabao first and see if there's any chance. I believe our senior brother won't abandon us!"
"Hmm... but for now, let's wait until he's finished picking up girls."
Sha Wujing rubbed his chin, chuckled twice, and followed behind Zhu Bajie out of the Luoyang market, heading towards Niujiabao.
"Ugh!!"
Zixia Fairy's face turned red, and she felt her breathing become somewhat labored. Her entire body went limp in Supreme Treasure's arms.
At this moment, Supreme Treasure felt the softness between his lips and completely lost his sense of direction.
When he groggily opened his eyes, he saw three people standing to the side, staring intently at them. (End of Chapter)
