Chapter 457: The Monkey God's Brilliant Appearance at the Qitian Temple, Resonating with the Temple

Chapter 457: The Monkey God's Brilliant Appearance at the Qitian Temple, Resonating with the Temple God

---

In the vast sky, dark clouds churned, and thunder roared incessantly, shaking the heavens and earth! Countless intertwining lightning bolts weaved like a spider's web, spreading endlessly as if blue dragons were swiftly darting through the dark clouds.

The unusual celestial phenomenon had already caught the attention of many. Everyone understood that the changing heavenly signs were due to the imminent opening of the Qitian Temple's inheritance.

The Qitian Temple God, who had been dormant for five hundred years, was about to awaken!

A thunderous roar echoed without end, filling the air with its ferocious sound.

The entire Qitian City trembled violently, the whole city in turmoil. Thick, eerie mist rose from beneath the ground, spreading from under the bricks and stones that paved the city.

The mist intertwined and surged endlessly, rising into the sky, as if blocking out the wind and rain from above.

The sound of chains clanging filled the air, as thick chains collided with each other, creating an ear-splitting boom.

In the courtyard, Li Che suddenly stood up, his eyes flashing with intertwining golden flames.

"The inner city of Qitian has opened!"

Li Che took a deep breath, his heart stirring with anticipation.

In fact, it wasn't just him who was stirred; the Sui Xin Jintie Shenguan in his right arm was trembling continuously. This divine weapon, which had merged with his arm, couldn't contain its excitement at this moment.

Moreover, in the Heavenly Chessboard, the incomplete Qitian mask lay across it.

Li Che had collected two pieces of the Qitian mask, and now only one piece remained. This incomplete Qitian mask was also trembling incessantly.

The resonance was caused by the revival of the Qitian Temple God's breath.

Not only that, but one of Li Che's strange seeds of the Divine Gate was also vibrating in response, and the vortex of his blood energy seemed to have increased in speed out of nowhere!

This was the result of cultivating the Shuan Nantian martial art to the level of the True Martial God Realm, which led to the awakening of the strange seed of the martial art.

Li Che hadn't expected that so many things within him were connected to the Qitian Temple God!

A roar echoed from within Qitian City.

Countless eerie mists rose from the ground, shrouding the surroundings, and Li Che's vision was obscured. As he peered into the inner city of Qitian, he saw a figure bound by countless chains, illuminated by intense light, within the mist.

The gray mist was like a canvas for the brilliant light, which burst forth, revealing a figure bound by numerous chains.

The humanoid figure could only raise its head and howl like a ferocious beast.

Li Che's breath slightly condensed.

Was that... the Qitian Temple God?!

Li Che's Mud Pill Palace in his forehead throbbed incessantly, and the Law of Heaven and Earth Spirit Bright True Monkey Divine Embryo seemed to want to burst out and leap from within.

"It's begun..."

Li Che's eyes lowered, and he smiled lightly.

Qitian City...

This once-glorious Divine Sect, which had dominated half the world, had captured Li Che's imagination from the moment he first set foot in the Golden Light City. Perhaps, from that moment, an unbreakable bond had formed between them.

Especially for Li Che, the name Qitian was indeed quite renowned.

Since his rebirth in this world, Li Che had felt like a stranger, filled with apprehension, even after obtaining the Dao Fruit and becoming stronger, gaining the ability to protect his family.

He had left the dangerous Thunder City with his wife and daughter, arriving in the Golden Light City, but Li Che's heart still felt unfamiliar with this world.

Therefore, when Qitian appeared, it was like a ray of light in the endless darkness for Li Che.

And this ray of light, Li Che had inadvertently chosen to pursue.

In this life, could Li Che return to the world of his previous life?

Li Che didn't know, but the name Qitian existed in his previous life, and in this life, the appearance of numerous Wicked Temples had brought forth many familiar names from myths, stirring a faint eagerness in Li Che's heart.

Perhaps, another purpose of his diligent cultivation, a purpose even he himself was unaware of, was to... return to that world and take a look.

And now, the path home was still unclear to Li Che.

Even though he now possessed immense power, capable of slaying even a Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations realm demon, Li Che understood that he was still far from achieving his desire to "go home."

The figure bound by chains struggled relentlessly, the countless chains dancing wildly, bursting air currents, and shattering the void!

Its roars shook the heavens and earth, echoing continuously.

Li Che exhaled, his eyes gradually becoming resolute.

Qitian, the beacon of light in his heart, could it truly become the light that guided him home?

Li Che spread his five fingers, and in the next moment, his five fingers pierced through space like divine spears.

The Monkey God mask was retrieved and placed over his face.

The golden fur seemed to come alive, growing and becoming lifelike, even swaying gently in the breeze!

The Qitian Temple God resonated!

The Netherworld Monkey God made its appearance!

---

At the same time, both inside and outside Qitian City, earth-shattering changes were taking place.

The eerie mist surged, enveloping the original Qitian City, mixing with the demonic energies of various demons and gods, creating a chaotic scene like a city of demons and monsters.

And now, outside Qitian City, countless human cultivators who had rushed here from all over the world, stared in awe.

But within Qitian City, thick, eerie mist was billowing and rolling, shrouding the entire city."

This mist obscured the entire city, making it impossible to see any of the city's scenery clearly, even the three city gates guarded by demon gods became blurred.

Those who had challenged the demon gods and demon kings but failed, blocked outside the city by the Qitian City demons, wore expressions of regret.

"There's no chance now..."

What a pity!

The Qitian Temple God's resonance had begun, and they truly had no chance now.

After hesitation and doubt, they lost the opportunity to enter Qitian City and participate in the Temple God's resonance, and the Qitian Temple's inheritance would forever be out of their reach.

Of course, those who had failed to pass through the city gates were filled with regret and resentment.

The mist from the Wiles Pavilion continued to spread, forcing the gathered cultivators outside Qitian City to retreat to a distance.

Because once enveloped by the mist, no one knew what kind of misfortune might befall them.

In the city of Qitian, the moment the ground trembled, a strange mist rose, and everyone reacted.

Many cultivators from the Da Jing Imperial Court, led by Ye Pengju, had their faces flashing.

Elders from various Divine Sects, such as the Zi Fu Divine Sect, the South Sea Purple Bamboo Forest, and the ancient families of the Da Jing Empire, all stood up in unison.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

Amidst the mysterious mist, numerous figures left their respective courtyards and stepped onto the wide streets of Qitian City, resembling a vast plaza.

Each person exuded a divine aura as they moved through the mist, heading towards the inner city of Qitian.

The cultivation levels of these individuals were not weak, and even though Qitian City was vast, it was only a matter of moments for these powerful cultivators.

Beneath the towering walls of the inner city, a multitude of figures gathered.

Among them were cultivators from the Da Jing Empire, the Da Li Imperial Court, the Wu Shen Mountain, and Buddhist monks from the Western Buddhist Kingdom. Additionally, there were also demons from the Ten Thousand Rivers.

The Black Ox Demon God led twelve other Demon Gods, their powerful auras filling the air as they approached. The sheer force of their presence caused a rolling wave of demonic energy, making it seem as if a peerless demon had emerged, freezing the surrounding void and causing everyone to tremble.

From the Da Jing side, Ye Pengju, Wang Kui, and others had chosen to break through to the Martial Deity realm during the Great Competition Era, all for the chance to fight for the Qitian inheritance.

However, they were not the true foundation of the Da Jing Imperial Court. The true foundation lay with the surviving ancestors of the Da Jing Empire, including an emperor who had reached the One Calamity Three Tribulations realm, Emperor Lu Wenchang!

From the Zi Fu Divine Sect, the one who arrived was none other than the sect leader, Zhang Wuji. And now, Zhang Wuji had clearly stepped into the Divine Tribulation realm, his aura so powerful that it even overshadowed Ye Pengju, Wang Kui, and other Martial Deities.

Additionally, there were also the ancestral masters of the South Sea Purple Bamboo Forest, the Seven Treasures Divine Sect, the Hao Ran Academy, and other Divine Sects.

Apart from the Divine Sects, there were also ancient families from the Da Jing Empire, such as the Gongshu, Ji, Yue, Huang, and Fang families.

The one who came from Wu Shen Mountain was a figure shrouded in a white robe, as all robes from Wu Shen Mountain were white, the color of snow.

Wu Shen Mountain itself was a snow-covered mountain that never melted, so those from the mountain naturally favored the color of snow.

The aura of the leading figure was unfathomable. When he had entered the city, he had merely extended a finger and pinned the Jade Horned Rhinoceros Demon God, who was guarding the city walls, against the wall, almost killing him with a single finger.

This was enough to show the power of this person.

It could be said that an extraordinary number of powerful cultivators had gathered before the inner city of Qitian.

The space around the inner city seemed to distort and blur.

All the powerful cultivators had gathered here, anticipating the long-awaited Qitian Temple God Resonance and the true inheritance of the Heaven-Striking Temple.

Lu Taibai, Lu Qiankun, and Fang Hanshu had also arrived, representing the Divine Sects.

Among the various Divine Sects, the Qian Yuan Divine Sect had sent three powerful cultivators, a lineup that undoubtedly placed them among the top Divine Sects.

Suddenly—

The Black Ox Demon God narrowed his eyes, his copper-bell-like eyes scanning the crowd: "Where's the Netherworld?"

In fact, it wasn't just the Black Ox Demon God who was curious.

The powerful cultivators from various factions were all wondering whom the Netherworld had sent as their representative.

The one who had entered Qitian City was the Netherworld Bull Demon, but even with the city shaking and the inner city already opened, there was still no sign of a representative from the Netherworld.

So, whom would the Netherworld send? The Bull Demon? The King of Hell? Or the Netherworld Emperor?

Logically speaking, only these three should be able to compete.

Suddenly, everyone felt a slight tremor in the mysterious mist of Qitian City.

It was as if an invisible force had affected the mist.

Instinctively, almost everyone turned their heads towards a certain direction within Qitian City.

On the street, a tall figure slowly approached.

With his hands raised, he leaned on a golden staff that passed through the back of his neck and rested on his shoulders, assuming a casual posture.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

With his appearance, the entire city's mist began to surge strangely, as if influenced by some invisible force!

At this moment, everyone's gaze shifted towards him.

Their eyes fell upon the figure walking step by step, neither hurried nor slow, from the other end of the street.

He slightly raised his head, and the golden-haired Thunder God Monkey mask, fluttering in the mist, caught everyone's attention.

Everyone was momentarily stunned, but after the initial shock, they revealed expressions of realization and acceptance.

The representative from the Netherworld...

It wasn't the Bull Demon, nor the King of Hell, nor the Netherworld Emperor.

It was the Monkey God!

Indeed... it was the Monkey God!

The Monkey God who had obtained the Willful Golden Iron Staff!

However, with the Monkey God's strength, could he compete with the Divine Tribulation cultivators present?

Facing countless gazes, the Monkey God remained calm and unhurried, his determination unwavering as he made his grand entrance.

...

...

The dim orange lamplight illuminated the restaurant.

Xixi sat in a chair, holding a steaming meat bun, chewing with her mouth full of oil, her cheeks puffed up.

"My father should also be participating in this Temple God Resonance, right?"

Xixi blinked her eyes, her words slightly muffled by the bun.

She was curious about how her father would look during the Temple God Resonance. Xixi still remembered the tension she had felt during the Three Princes Temple God Resonance at the Golden Light Mansion, even though she knew her father was always supporting her from behind.

That Temple God Resonance had left a deep impression on Xixi.

After all... she had almost been lured by the Three Princes Temple God to pick her father's bones and return her mother's flesh.

So, Xixi's impression of Temple God Resonance wasn't very good, but it was undeniable that Temple God Resonance offered many valuable treasures.

Like the Hell Lotus Flame Wheel, the divine gold brick in her hand, and the divine essence cultivation method in her mind...

These were all inheritances from the Temple God.

Therefore, Xixi also hoped that her father would gain something from this Temple God Resonance.

Xixi also understood that her father had arranged for her to stay at the boss's restaurant so that he could focus entirely on this Temple God Resonance.

Xixi was well-behaved, enjoying the delicious food and drinks, not causing any trouble for her father.

"Go, Dad!"

Xixi raised the meat bun in her hand, making a toasting gesture.

Her two little feet crossed, shaking slightly, as she felt extremely content.

The boss sat in a chair, brewing a pot of hot tea and taking a small sip.

The dog lay on the ground, its black fur glistening under the dim yellow light, emitting a subtle glow.

The boss sipped his tea, while Xixi enjoyed her dumplings, and the dog lay on the ground, basking in the light.

Compared to the violent tremors that occurred in Qi Tian City due to the resonance with the Temple God, the restaurant felt like a peaceful haven, isolated from the world.

...

...

Da Jing, the Divine Capital.

The second city of the Divine Capital.

The eight-cornered, multi-eaved, and water-dripping Qintian Baolou.

The ninth floor of the Baolou.

The entire ninth floor seemed boundless and vast, with a black turtle lying on the ground, its shell adorned with the flying robes of the Grand Supervisor. He sat quietly, his face obscured by the distorted space.

Yuetao Fu and Fang Shangzhen, the two Deputy Grand Supervisors, stood silently at the entrance of the ninth-floor city gate.

Suddenly, a figure appeared.

Dressed in bright yellow robes, with a golden crown on his head and embroideries of divine dragons and phoenixes, he walked forward with a powerful and overwhelming aura, causing Yuetao Fu and Fang Shangzhen's faces to change slightly.

"Your Majesty."

Yuetao Fu and Fang Shangzhen's eyes narrowed, both surprised to see the Emperor appear on the ninth floor of the Qintian Baolou.

The Emperor stood tall, his features obscured, but the feeling he gave off was completely different from before.

The Emperor stood with his hands behind his back, his golden boots stepping down as the space around him rippled slightly.

"Your Majesty, without the Grand Supervisor's permission, you cannot enter," Fang Shangzhen said, surprised by the change in the Emperor's aura, but still taking a step forward to block him.

"How dare you!" The Emperor spoke indifferently, his voice like a deep bell.

A terrifying force of heaven and earth struck Fang Shangzhen's heart, causing her face to pale, and her entire body was about to be struck by this powerful force.

The correct version is available on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ BookⅩ Bar. Read the first chapter of the novel on 6Ⅹ9 BookⅩ Bar.

However, a gentle divine force floated by.

Fang Shangzhen felt as if there was a large, soft cotton ball supporting her back, holding her up.

She knew this was the power of the Grand Supervisor.

"Your Majesty, if you wish to enter, please come in."

The voice of the Grand Supervisor echoed from within the ninth-floor city.

The Emperor's bright yellow robes fluttered as he strode into the ninth-floor pavilion.

It was as if he had crossed a threshold, and everything around him became incredibly vast, as if standing above a sea of clouds, with boundless heavens.

The Grand Supervisor rode on the black turtle, his gaze calm as he watched the Emperor.

The Emperor's face was filled with divine energy and blood, while the Grand Supervisor's face was obscured by the distorted space...

"Grand Supervisor... You've been predicting that whoever obtains the Willful Golden Iron Staff will be able to stir up my Da Jing... and plunge it into chaos?"

"Today, I came here personally, Grand Supervisor. Take a look... with my current cultivation and the power I possess, who... can stir up my Da Jing!" The Emperor spoke coldly, standing with his hands behind his back.

As his words ended, the Emperor suddenly spread his arms, and a terrifying aura erupted from him.

The Grand Supervisor sat cross-legged on the black turtle's back, his distorted face showing no emotion in his eyes as he watched.

It was as if he were watching a comedic play.

...

...

Li Che wore a divine monkey mask and carried the Willful Golden Iron Staff, walking leisurely from the end of the long street in Qi Tian City, where the eerie fog swirled.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he made a dazzling entrance.

It was like the light he had longed for in his previous life had suddenly appeared in reality.

Wearing the mask, Li Che's state of mind was now completely different.

Of course, there were also some unusual aspects. In the past, at Jin Guang Fu, Xixi had participated in the Temple God's resonance, which was Li Che's first encounter with it.

That was the beginning of Xixi's transformation and growth.

Having obtained the inheritance of the Third Prince's Temple God, it seemed to bind her fate with the various gods within the Wicked Pavilion, including the Hell Lotus.

Whether it was a blessing or a curse, Li Che couldn't tell.

And now, he was about to face a Temple God's resonance.

Li Che didn't know if this Qi Tian was related to the Qi Tian in his past life's memories, but since he had the opportunity to come into contact with it, Li Che didn't reject it and decided to give it a try.

"Willful Golden Iron Staff..."

Many people's gazes fell on the divine monkey carrying the golden treasure staff.

The Grand Supervisor's heavenly mechanism prediction had been heard by many, and there was even a story about a dispute over the Willful Golden Iron Staff in the past. In the end, the staff ended up in the hands of the Netherworld's divine monkey.

Many people thought that the Netherworld would hand over the staff to a more powerful entity to participate in this Temple God's resonance.

However, unexpectedly, the Netherworld still kept the staff with the divine monkey, allowing it to compete in this Temple God's resonance.

After being suppressed for five hundred years, the Qi Tian Temple God's resonance was naturally very different from the one at Jin Guang Fu with the Third Prince's Temple God."

Strength is indeed a crucial factor in this test."

From the chained and bound, ferocious figure, one can glimpse the truth."

The eerie fog swirled and surged, and with a creaking sound, the long-sealed gate beneath the inner city wall slowly opened, and thick fog gushed out!

It was as if a shockwave had erupted from within the inner city.

In an instant, the fog thickened before the city gate, forming a distorted space.

It was like a Wicked Pavilion, filled with forces that could make one lose their way.

The opened gate of the inner city seemed to flicker in and out of existence.

Three hundred zhang! Everyone was pushed back to three hundred zhang away, outside the Wicked Temple.

This was an absolute area for the Temple God's resonance.

Within three hundred zhang, there was a test area for the Temple God's resonance. If one could resonate, they could take a step and enter this range.

If the Temple God couldn't resonate, they had no right to enter.

Every Wicked Temple had the same requirement.

When Xixi participated in the Third Prince's Wicked Temple resonance, she faced a similar test.

The fog swayed in front of the Wicked Temple.

Even the Black Bull Demon God, a second-tier calamity cultivator, seemed insignificant at this moment, separated by the vast eerie fog.

The swirling fog seemed to have a terrifying presence projecting its gaze.

A buzzing sound emanated from within the inner city.

It was as if an ancient divine bell atop a snowy mountain peak was being struck, causing an avalanche and waves of chaos.

Including Li Che, everyone's vision began to blur.

The people and demons around them seemed to disappear, swallowed by the eerie fog.

Everyone knew that within this fog was the Sanqing Wicked Temple.

The Temple God's Resonance...

It begins!

...

Lu Taibai's hair danced in the air, his heart stirring. As the surroundings became blurred, he took a step forward and fearlessly plunged into the eerie mist.

Not all Wicked Temples had the chance to undergo the Temple God's Resonance test.

It was all about opportunity, and only those recently revived Wicked Temples could undergo the Temple God's Resonance trial.

This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for any cultivator, as the chances of obtaining the Temple God's inheritance during the Temple God's Resonance were incredibly high.

"Heaven-Striking Temple..."

"Will our Qianyuan Sect become the next Heaven-Striking Temple?"

Lu Taibai shook his head and let out a bitter smile.

"Not even close... This time, if it weren't for the help of the Netherworld, our Qianyuan Sect would have already been conquered by the imperial court. Our sect would have been destroyed, and our Dao traditions would have vanished."

"So, I have to give it a try, to take a chance..."

Lu Taibai took a deep breath and plunged into the eerie mist.

However, as soon as he entered the mist, the scene before him underwent a drastic change.

The moonlight was cold and clear, and a small monkey, dressed in a human robe, tilted its head and looked at Lu Taibai. Its eyes were clear and bright, filled with curiosity and desire.

"Do you know the art of transformation?" the monkey asked.

Lu Taibai was taken aback.

He was a simple sword cultivator, skilled only in slashing and cutting. How could he possibly know the art of transformation?

So, Lu Taibai, being straightforward, shook his head.

Hearing this, the little monkey's eyes showed a hint of disappointment.

"You don't even know the art of transformation, what resonance do you have with me?" the monkey said.

The next moment, the little monkey's body trembled, and it began to swell at a visible rate. The ground shook, and the Daoist temple exploded into pieces.

As the monkey's tail whipped and lashed, it transformed into a colossal ape, towering at a height of ten thousand zhang, as enormous as a demon god!

With a loud roar, the wind howled, and the space seemed to shatter with the furious bellow. Lu Taibai felt as if everything before him had disappeared.

The eerie mist surged.

Lu Taibai opened his eyes, feeling lost and confused.

He turned his head and saw that he wasn't the only one; several other cultivators had also appeared nearby.

They were all three hundred zhang away from the Wicked Temple, not daring to take a step forward.

Lu Taibai's silver hair fluttered as he let out a soft sigh, "Not even a bit of resonance..."

Fang Hanshu held the Sage Book, glancing calmly at Lu Taibai, "The Dou Zhan Hell Lotus, the Demon Saint, the Qitian Temple God, the four elements..."

"Dou Zhan, the Black Sumeru, the Hell Lotus, the Demon Saint, the Wicked Cave, and Qitian... these are the four elements of the Dark Celestial Court."

"What about you, Lu Taibai? Which element do you resonate with?"

"You don't even hold a staff or wear a monkey mask. How can you resonate?" Fang Hanshu glanced at him and said indifferently.

Lu Taibai became unconvinced, "Old Fang, didn't you also fail the resonance test just now?"

"I withdrew on my own accord. Since I don't possess any of the four elements, and that monkey... doesn't like to read, there's no hope for resonance."

"So, I left early to watch the show."

"The Temple God's Resonance is only meant for a select few who are prepared. Our goal is to enter the inner city after the Temple God's Resonance ends, to seek the inheritance of the Heaven-Striking Temple, and to find the entrance to the Earth Wiles Pavilion."

Fang Hanshu shook the Sage Book and spoke calmly.

Lu Taibai remained silent.

He turned to look around.

He could see many figures plunging into the eerie mist. Although the mist was hazy, they could still see these figures walking towards the black hole-like gate of the inner city.

Some took only a step before falling into hesitation. Without guessing, it was clear that they couldn't pass the Temple God's Resonance test.

Others moved forward smoothly.

Lu Taibai saw a Buddhist monk from the Western Buddhist Kingdom leading the way, chanting some kind of incantation. Behind him, a golden cicada was woven from Buddhist light, buzzing incessantly. Despite the annoyance, the monk calmly weaved through the mist, heading towards the inner city of Qitian.

Apparently, he had resonated with the Temple God.

Lu Taibai also spotted the Black Bull Demon God, wearing a monkey mask, carrying an enormous staff, and striding forward, causing the ground to tremble continuously.

"That's the Divine Weapon, the Golden Beam of the Sea, one of the top-tier staff-type divine weapons, originating from the Ancestral Dragon Island..." Fang Hanshu explained.

Without a doubt, this was also a preparation to resonate with the Qitian Temple God.

Lu Taibai was speechless. How could these people be so impressive? However, most of them still failed the resonance, falling out one after another, regaining consciousness. Even Lu Qiankun, the founder of their sect, couldn't pass the test.

Lu Taibai and Lu Qiankun exchanged glances, both letting out a sigh.

"It seems that our Qianyuan Sect has little chance of resonating with this Qitian Temple God..." Lu Qiankun sighed lightly.

Then, Lu Taibai seemed to have thought of something, his gaze turning towards the monkey carrying the Willful Golden Iron Staff.

After all, Lu Taibai was aware of the true identity of this monkey.

The monkey was Li Che!

"No! We still have a chance!"

Fang Hanshu also stopped reading the Sage Book, staring at the monkey's back.

However, after the monkey took a step into the eerie mist, it stood quietly in its original spot.

It seemed to have hit a snag in the Temple God's Resonance.

But was it truly a snag? Lu Taibai's eyes narrowed slightly.

Because...

A faint demonic aura was emanating from the monkey's body.

...

...

Li Che wore the Qitian mask, carrying the Willful Golden Iron Staff.

Everything before him became blurry and vanished, and the people or demons around him disappeared without a trace.

Only he remained, strolling through the eerie mist.

The mist was hazy, and as he collided with it, it exploded.

Suddenly, the scene before him became clear.

He saw a Daoist temple.

In front of the temple, a small monkey sat on the stone steps, looking frustrated.

Perhaps it had sensed Li Che's presence.

The little monkey hopped over.

Li Che's golden eyes, like burning flames, slowly turned, calmly observing the little monkey in front of him, wearing a tattered Daoist robe.

The little monkey tilted its head and swung its tail.

"Do you know the art of transformation?"

Under the monkey mask.

Li Che's lips curled up in a carefree smile.

He raised his hand and tapped the little monkey's head three times.

"Yes."

Second update, a bit stuck, couldn't finish before midnight, sorry, seeking monthly votes, recommendations, and readers! Old Li will continue tomorrow! Thank you!
