West Sea, Sun Wukong watched the sky filled with Spell light.

He seemed to have grasped something.

"Come here."

He called out, and a line of text flew down.

"Go in."

Sun Wukong took out the Jade Seal and placed the text inside.

The small tree within the Jade Seal absorbed the text and soon sprouted a leaf.

"So that's how it is."

Sun Wukong thought.

Ten years, maybe it wouldn't even take ten years.

He calculated carefully, his eyes revealing a joyful expression: "Three years will be enough."

In three years, Sun Wukong would simplify the complex Wanling Immortal Path.

He looked up, watched for a while, and then slightly frowned.

The Spells in the sky were already seen through by him and were no longer important.

"Go!"

Sun Wukong waved his hand, and the radiant light suddenly scattered like meteors in all directions.

A meteor fell outside the Barrier, and a whale just happened to pass by. Upon seeing the meteor, it couldn't resist swallowing it.

The next moment, its body flickered with golden light.

"Tastier than what fell from the sky back then."

The whale swam joyfully, seeing another meteor flying out from the Barrier, it swallowed it in one gulp.

Unbeknownst to Sun Wukong, a little chap was devouring characters, and he turned to look at the sky above the Western Continent.

That sky, invisible to the naked eye, had mysteriously gathered a cluster of dark clouds.

A major event engulfing the entire continent was happening, yet Sun Wukong was completely unaware.

"What's going on?"

With a thought, Wu Xiang, who was studying the Spiritual Network Rune, walked out of Wanling Hall.

He looked over Wanling City from above, the streets were desolate, a significant difference from the usual.

Something big must have occurred.

Sun Wukong thought to himself, turning around, he saw Ao Luan hurriedly walking out.

"What happened?"

Sun Wukong asked.

Ao Luan hesitated for a moment but finally spoke: "Daji is dead."

Sun Wukong was shocked.

Daji is dead? How could that be, he still had a Brocade Bag on her!

"I was just about to go over, I'll bring you along."

Ao Luan brought Sun Wukong and they flew to Chuanyin Hall.

At this moment, Chuanyin Hall was already surrounded by people, men were crying in groups but couldn't go in to mourn Daji.

Seeing this scene, Sun Wukong's heart sank.

Could Daji truly be dead?

Sun Wukong followed Ao Luan into Chuanyin Hall.

Inside Chuanyin Hall, the Demon women also stood at Daji's door with worried faces.

"What's going on here?"

Ao Luan approached and asked: "Is Daji really..."

"She's not dead."

The Water Moon Fairy replied: "She just refuses to come out of her room."

Ao Luan and Sun Wukong then relaxed.

At that moment, seven Spider Demons carried a strange object over.

The Demon women looked over.

"What are you doing?"

They asked.

"We heard Sister Daji passed away."

The seven Spider Demons immediately replied: "We made her a wreath."

The wreath they carried almost clogged the hallway.

"Daji is not dead yet!"

The Water Moon Fairy snorted coldly.

Frustrated by the escalating situation, the Water Moon Fairy kicked open Daji's door and walked in.

The Demon women wanted to follow, but Ao Luan stopped them.

"Don't come in."

Ao Luan called Sun Wukong and entered.

But before the door closed, the seven Spider Demons also dropped the wreath and rushed in.

In the room, Daji squatted in the corner, wrapping herself into a rice dumpling with her nine fox tails.

The Water Moon Fairy watched for a long time before finally asking: "What are you doing?"

"My life is over."

Daji replied: "I just want to die here alone."

The Water Moon Fairy was stunned.

"Sister, are you really not dead?"

The Spider Demons grabbed Daji's fox tails and started scratching them.

"Stop playing with my tails!"

Daji's fox tails opened suddenly, flipping the Spider Demons into the air.

Sun Wukong only then realized that Daji's face was sporting two panda eyes.

"Pfft..."

Ao Luan couldn't help but laugh.

She covered her mouth: "What's with those dark circles under your eyes?"

Daji immediately hid her face again with her fox tail.

"I don't want to see anyone."

She said: "Go tell the Great King, if he doesn't reduce my workload, I am not getting up!"

She really couldn't take it anymore. In recent years, the burden of managing all the audio-visual broadcasting across the Western Continent had left her with no time to sleep.

From teaching children to read, to imparting technical skills, to lecturing the elderly on health maintenance—she was in charge of organizing every task.

Ao Luan glanced at Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong nodded.

"If you're tired, you should have said it earlier."

Ao Luan said to Daji: "I'll assign some people to help you."

"Really?"

Daji's fox tail swayed slightly.

"But I still need a few more days of rest."

She said.

Ao Luan agreed.

"Why did the rumor outside claim you were dead if it's just dark circles?"

Water Moon Fairy then asked.

"Dead?" Daji found it odd: "No, I didn't say that. Just yesterday, I had them help me ask for a leave."

She pointed a fox tail at seven Spider Demons.

The gaze of Water Moon Fairy shifted towards them.

The Spider Demons looked at each other.

"We helped our sister ask for leave. We didn't say she was dead."

"What did you all say?"

Ao Luan asked.

The seven Spider Demons immediately replied: "Sister told us not to mention the dark circles, so we just said she was sick."

"Sick?"

Water Moon Fairy calculated with her fingers, and her expression turned delicate.

Daji was a celebrity in Wanling Country, and her being sick sparked a lot of speculation and spreading.

Sick—Seriously Ill—Critical—Dead.

Unknowingly, this was how the information had morphed when it spread.

"This really is frightening!"

Sun Wukong also guessed the reason and couldn't help being startled.

A rumor about Daji could change the customs of an entire continent.

"I'll go out and clarify this."

Water Moon Fairy sighed and left the room.

Seeing that Daji was alright, Ao Luan also left with Sun Wukong.

After the three of them left, the seven Spider Demons gathered around Daji.

"Sister, our master has the world's best beauty remedy that can definitely cure dark circles."

"What?"

Daji was stunned: "Really?"

No wonder Immortal Zhenyuan's skin is so nice.

"Master has assigned two brothers to guard it. Sister, you distract them and we can steal it."

The seven Spider Demons said.

Daji immediately agreed.

So, a few days later, Sun Wukong saw the seven Spider Demons hanging at the front gate of Wuzhuang Temple.

They were crying loudly, sobbing uncontrollably.

Sun Wukong asked the gatekeeping disciples curiously: "What happened to them?"

"The seven junior sisters were caught stealing master's Ginsengfruit."

Qingfeng said: "Master gave them a beating."

Sun Wukong was surprised: "They are crying because they were beaten?"

"That's not it."

Ming Yue replied: "The junior sisters thought Ginsengfruit was good for beauty, but master told them eating Ginsengfruit keeps one from aging, and they started to cry."

Sun Wukong looked up at the seven Spider Demons, indeed, amidst their sobbing sounds were phrases like 'won't age' and 'can't get married'.

He was torn between laughter and tears.

It takes nine thousand years for Ginsengfruit to bloom and mature, eating one could extend life by forty-seven thousand years.

These little demons might indeed end up not aging for tens of thousands of years if they consumed the fruit.

Sun Wukong decided not to intervene.

"I want to discuss Spiritual Network with Immortal Zhenyuan."

He asked Qingfeng and Mingyue: "Is Immortal here?"

"Master has gone out."

Qingfeng and Mingyue shook their heads: "He's off to kill a Taoist named Qing Yuanzi."

Sun Wukong was startled: "Killing him for what?"

"He misled the seven junior sisters."

The two disciples replied.

Sun Wukong felt that it was a miracle Qing Yuanzi was still alive.
