Chapter 594 -594 Let Hou Yi Cure the Poison (4th Update!)

After bringing Fairy Chang’er back to Flower-Fruit Mountain in the Northern Continent of Cattle-grazing, Sun Wukong had invited Puti Patriarch, Demon Master Kunpeng, and Mosquito Daoist Luo Wen to a courtyard deep within Water Curtain Cave Heaven. Fairy Chang’er’s current condition was somewhat unseemly, and since she was the daughter of Heavenly Emperor Di Jun, Sun Wukong felt it better not to let too many people see her.

Among the three, Puti Patriarch had lived the longest and was the most experienced and knowledgeable. After examining her, he guessed that Fairy Chang’er had been fed Fusion Divine Water, which immediately caused his brows to furrow deeply, and Demon Master Kunpeng along with Mosquito Daoist Luo Wen also frowned.

“What is Fusion Divine Water? Is it difficult to treat?”

Sun Wukong scratched his head. If even Puti Patriarch and the others couldn’t treat Fairy Chang’er, what were they supposed to do now? Surely they couldn’t let Fairy Chang’er remain sealed forever?

But even for Sun Wukong, a seal formed by Chaos Primordial Force couldn’t be maintained indefinitely, at most for one year. After a year, the seal would dissolve and if no one administered an antidote to Fairy Chang’er, the powerful force of the Fusion Divine Water would trigger her Mysterious Yin Primordial, causing her to disintegrate!

However, to administer the antidote, according to Puti Patriarch and the others, someone needed to harmonize yin and yang with Fairy Chang’er to guide out the power of Fusion Divine Water. That was the only way!

The problem was, who would harmonize yin and yang with Fairy Chang’er?

Puti Patriarch, Mosquito Daoist, and Demon Master Kunpeng all turned their gazes toward Sun Wukong, who felt a twitch on his scalp and promptly said, “I can’t do it! I only have Zi Xia. There’s no way I can have any relations with another woman, even to save someone!”

“Wukong old brother, are you thinking too much? We meant for you to find someone to help Fairy Chang’er; why are you bringing yourself into it?”

Mosquito Daoist Luo Wen blinked, with Puti Patriarch and Demon Master Kunpeng nodding repeatedly.

“Ah?”

Sun Wukong was startled, “You mean my understanding was wrong… ah, I thought too much!”

Sun Wukong felt terribly embarrassed, as if he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. He managed a laugh and quickly changed the subject, “So, what? Master, do you all have any good suggestions? Since Fairy Chang’er’s condition requires someone to detoxify her, and this detoxification requires yin and yang harmony, and even a harmony of soul bodies, which means finding a Taoist companion for Fairy Chang’er, this isn’t easy to handle!”

Indeed, it wasn’t easy to handle. For cultivators, finding a Taoist companion is not as simple as regular people breaking up when things don’t work out. The dual cultivation of a Taoist couple is much more complex than the mere physical relations of ordinary mortals, embedding a mark in each other’s Soul’s True Spirit. Unless one party perishes, they are typically indivisible and irreplaceable.

Fairy Chang’er was currently under a seal and could not be unsealed to ask for her opinion. To find her a Taoist companion while she was unable to express her thoughts, and expecting her to be satisfied upon waking up, was immensely challenging!

“If only Hou Yi were still alive, this would be simple!”

Mosquito Daoist Luo Wen sighed, but the eyes of Demon Master Kunpeng suddenly lit up, and he clapped Mosquito Daoist Luo Wen’s shoulder hard. “I’ve got an idea!”

“What idea?”

Sun Wukong’s ears perked up, and both Puti Patriarch and Mosquito Daoist Luo Wen turned their gaze toward Demon Master Kunpeng.

“Let Hou Yi detoxify Fairy Chang’er!”

“Are you joking?”

Sun Wukong thought that Demon Master Kunpeng would say something constructive, but instead, it was such a nonsensical utterance. With a speechless expression, he recalled how Hou Yi, during the Ancient Times, had died after being attacked by a group of Demon Gods for shooting down the nine suns, his body completely obliterated in the Divine Demon Graveyard. Where would they find Hou Yi to cure Fairy Chang’er of her poison?

“Of course, I know Hou Yi is dead,” he muttered, “but it’s only his physical body that was destroyed. His Primordial Essence Qi was absorbed by Lu Ya Daoist and refined into the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife, but his soul still resides within the Divine Demon Graveyard. If we can consolidate it and find a body for him to possess, he might be able to reconstruct his physical body one day…”

“Wait a minute!”

Sun Wukong interrupted Demon Master Kunpeng, “Brother Kunpeng, are you saying that it’s possible to resurrect Hou Yi?”

“Exactly!”

“How can he be resurrected? How long will it take?”

“Now, Wukong, you’ve hit the nail on the head!”

Demon Master Kunpeng grinned slyly, his face alight with confidence, “If it were in the past, I really would have no idea, but now, there’s a perfect candidate—the Tang Seng, Jiang Liu’er, from the Journey to the West to Seek Scriptures!”

“Jiang Liu’er?”

Sun Wukong was taken aback, “What does Jiang Liu’er have to do with this?”

“Of course, it’s related! Jiang Liu’er is born from ten generations of good people, Wukong. Didn’t you pass on the Immeasurable Merit Determination to him? He should have already achieved a small success in the Merit Golden Body. He’s the only one who can house Hou Yi’s soul and nurture it within his body!” said Demon Master Kunpeng with a chuckle.

Sun Wukong seemed to understand, “Brother Kunpeng, you mean to send Jiang Liu’er to the Divine Demon Graveyard to gather Hou Yi’s soul and let it possess his body, using his Merit Golden Body for nurturing? It probably won’t be able to nurture properly in just a short while, let alone reconstruct a physical body to cure Fairy Chang’er. My seal can only hold for a year!”

“No problem at all! As long as Hou Yi’s soul can attach to Jiang Liu’er, we can temporarily let Jiang Liu’er hand over control of his body to Hou Yi, allowing Hou Yi to control the physical body to cure Fairy Chang’er. After the successful westward journey, with the Merit and Destiny bestowed by the Heavenly Dao, we can split Jiang Liu’er’s physical body into two, and the newly formed body will be Hou Yi’s new physical body. The reunion of husband and wife, and lovers finally becoming spouses—wouldn’t that be wonderful?”

Demon Master Kunpeng spread his hands, “What do you think, isn’t it perfect?”

“Uh…”

Sun Wukong scratched his head, exchanging glances with Puti Patriarch and Mosquito Daoist Luo Wen. What Demon Master Kunpeng was proposing seemed feasible, but Sun Wukong still felt something was off. It just felt strange…

“Wait a minute, if Hou Yi, controlling Jiang Liu’er’s body, cures Fairy Chang’er, wouldn’t it still be Jiang Liu’er who does the curing? Jiang Liu’er is born from ten generations of good people, a child of pure yang energy. Wouldn’t this pose a problem? We must not disrupt the Journey to the West to Seek Scriptures!”

Sun Wukong finally realized, according to Demon Master Kunpeng’s plan, it would still be Jiang Liu’er who would cure Fairy Chang’er. That could potentially make Jiang Liu’er and Fairy Chang’er Taoist companions—what a mix-up!

“What does it matter? It’s Hou Yi’s soul controlling the body, and besides, Hou Yi’s new physical form will also be nurtured based on Jiang Liu’er’s body. There’s really no issue!”

Demon Master Kunpeng spread his hands again, “What’s more, Jiang Liu’er’s Merit Golden Body and Fairy Chang’er’s Mysterious Yin Primordial can fuse together, benefiting both parties. As long as Hou Yi doesn’t mind, Wukong, what are you worrying about?”
