Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#2293 - Stop it, it's me

Facing Zhu Bajie's sudden attack, the black-robed man was caught off guard. Zhu Bajie struck him in the back with his rake, sending him flying forward.

Kou Shanren's son, witnessing this scene, was somewhat frightened. After reacting, he quickly fled.

"Let him go. He's just a minor character. Capturing the black-robed man is the priority."

"He's already injured by me. We can capture him with our combined strength!"

Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie ignored Kou Shanren's son's escape and continued towards the black-robed man.

The black-robed man, after all, possessed the cultivation of a Quasi-Saint. Although he suffered such a blow, his injuries weren't too severe, and he still had fighting strength.

Seeing Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie approaching, with attacks following closely, the black-robed man immediately counterattacked.

The three instantly engaged in battle, fighting to a stalemate.

Although the black-robed man's cultivation was high, he was already injured. Furthermore, facing the combined attacks of Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, he couldn't gain any advantage.

Of course, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie couldn't capture the black-robed man in a short time either. The three entered a state of entanglement.

At this moment, Kou Shanren, who was playing chess with Tang Sanzang, suddenly said to Tang Sanzang.

"Truly ingenious! As expected of the number one strategist of the Western Paradise."

Kou Shanren's words showed great respect and flattery towards his daughter, which didn't seem like the attitude of an elder towards a junior.

"Amitabha, this time we will surely make Tang Sanzang and the others fall into our trap. They won't be able to escape even if they want to."

Kou Shanren's woman actually uttered a Buddhist prayer, and in her moment of triumph, a figure appeared.

This figure was none other than Guanyin, who had possessed Kou Shanren's woman's body with her magic.

Kou Shanren didn't seem surprised at all, clearly knowing that his daughter had been possessed by Guanyin.

"Let's go."

Guanyin, having possessed a mortal body, couldn't use her magic either.

Taking Kou Shanren and some servants, she walked outside. The direction they were heading was where Kou Shanren's son was located.

Kou Shanren's son, while the black-robed man was entangled by Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, fled back to his own residence in the Kou family.

The black-robed man's identity being exposed made Kou Shanren's son very fearful.

"His identity is exposed. Now that there's no one to protect me, I'm afraid I'm in trouble."

The black-robed man was secretly protecting him. Now that the black-robed man was entangled by Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, Kou Shanren's son was naturally very worried.

But what one fears often comes to pass. Just as Kou Shanren's son was fearful and worried, Kou Shanren had already arrived with his men.

"Father, why have you suddenly come?"

Kou Shanren's son seemed to have sensed something was wrong, but on the surface, he still pretended to be polite.

"Haha, who is your father? You possessed my son's body, do you think I didn't know?

That black-robed man who was protecting you is already having trouble protecting himself. Now that no one can protect you, won't you surrender obediently?"

At this moment, Kou Shanren discarded his hypocritical facade, revealing a villainous appearance of arrogance and triumph.

"Kou Hong, you running dog of the Western Paradise, I swear I won't rest until we're both dead."

Now that he had been exposed, Kou Shanren's son naturally stopped pretending and cursed at Kou Shanren.

"Men, seize him for me! Ask the Bodhisattva to force out his spirit, so he can suffer a painful death."

Following Kou Shanren's order, the servants immediately took action and tied up Kou Shanren's son.

Kou Shanren even walked over and took out a talisman, sticking it on his body. This was a sealing talisman.

This talisman served to seal the possessed spirit within the body, preventing it from escaping.

After doing all this, Kou Shanren had his son taken away and imprisoned.

Kou Shanren's son's eyes were full of hatred. He wanted to call for help, but he knew it was useless.

Because the black-robed man was entangled by Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, and definitely didn't have time to save him.

At this time, the black-robed man entangled with Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie couldn't even protect himself, let alone save someone.

Although his strength was high, he was injured from the start. After fighting for half a day, the injuries inside the black-robed man's body became increasingly serious.

Therefore, he was already somewhat lacking in strength, while Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie were becoming braver and braver. Under their combined assault, the black-robed man was already suppressed.

"He's failing. Bajie, put in more effort."

Sun Wukong directly confronted the black-robed man, and the two fought fiercely.

Zhu Bajie, on the other hand, was attacking the black-robed man from behind, making it difficult for him to defend from both sides.

"Brother Monkey, I'm going to use my power."

With Zhu Bajie's shout, his entire aura suddenly increased.

Moreover, a large amount of black demonic energy spread around his body. Zhu Bajie had entered a demonized state.

Zhu Bajie's strength soared after entering the demonized state. At this time, Zhu Bajie's strength was no less than Sun Wukong's.

Wielding his Nine-Toothed Rake, he fiercely attacked the black-robed man, who was already at a disadvantage and unable to defend.

The black-robed man was struck again by Zhu Bajie's rake, and immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

Seeing this situation, Sun Wukong took the opportunity to strike the black-robed man with his staff, causing the black-robed man to let out a miserable cry.

Successive injuries had exhausted the black-robed man, and his combat power had dropped to its lowest point.

But Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie didn't stop. Then each wielded their weapons and continued to attack the black-robed man.

The black-robed man knew that he couldn't resist. If Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie continued to attack, he might face life-threatening danger.

"Stop hitting! It's me."

The black-robed man said to Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie.

Hearing the black-robed man say this, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie couldn't help but stop attacking, because they found this voice somewhat familiar.

While speaking, the black-robed man had already lifted his black robe, revealing a bald head and a somewhat obese body.

When Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie saw the appearance of this person, they couldn't help but laugh and cry a little.

"So it's Buddha Maitreya. Why did you dress up like this?"

This black-robed man was Maitreya Buddha, who also had a helpless and bitter look on his face.
