Boom!

The last bolt of thunder that penetrated the heaven and earth fell, and the night sky became as bright as day.

The white-haired witch in a black robe and with flowing white hair decisively used the soul gem given by Cheng Long. Although she tried her best, she was still able to resist the thunder.

But who would want to be struck by lightning when they can easily survive the calamity?
Driven by magic power, the Mind Gem released a tremendous amount of energy, wrapping around the White-haired Witch from top to bottom. From a distance, it looked like a glowing oval yellow cocoon.

When the thunder that penetrated the heaven and earth fell, the giant yellow cocoon in the void did not even shake, which made the Jade Emperor, Queen Mother and others look at it with extremely hot eyes.

Especially the two Buddhas, Sakyamuni and Amitabha, who wanted to shout out immediately: "This thing is destined to be with me!"

"Zizzizi..."

The tremendous force of thunder and lightning struck the giant cocoon and remained in a stalemate for dozens of seconds before it unwillingly turned into endless lightning and dissipated into the void.

"receive!"

Cheng Long waved his hand, and the soul gem on Bingbing's head immediately turned into a stream of light and fell into his hand.

It’s not that he is stingy and reluctant to part with the treasure, but he is worried that Bingbing will not be able to keep the Mind Gem after he leaves.

Retrieving the gems in person can save you a lot of trouble.

Bingbing is very smart. As soon as she saw the Jade Emperor, Queen Mother and others appear beside Cheng Long, she immediately understood the meaning of the man's action.

Wow!
Almost at the moment when Cheng Long took away the Mind Gem, a beam of soft white light as thick as a bucket broke through the thunderclouds and landed on the White-haired Witch with incredible precision.

Instantly, an incomparably holy aura began to spread over her body.

The Yama Seal, which he renamed the Emperor's Seal, also shone with golden light, completely recognizing the White-haired Witch as its mistress.

From this moment on, it is no longer the companion magic weapon of King Yama, but the magical treasure of the White-haired Witch.

About a quarter of an hour later, Jin Yanzi saw the guiding fairy light dissipate, and her figure flashed and teleported to the side of the white-haired witch. She smiled and congratulated her, "Sister Bingbing, congratulations on your successful tribulation."

"Xiaoyanzi, you have to work hard too!"

The white-haired witch, who had a more holy aura, rubbed Jin Yanzi's head affectionately, and then teleported with the girl to Cheng Long's side, and said with seductive eyes: "Master, I have successfully passed the tribulation."

"Hmm~~" Mr. Cheng smiled with relief.

"Bingbing, now that you have achieved immortality, why do you still want to..."

The Queen Mother was once the White-haired Witch's immediate superior. When she saw Bingbing successfully overcome the tribulation and become a true immortal, and even called Cheng Long her master, she immediately felt uncomfortable.

The white-haired witch frowned and said unhappily, "Daoyou, aren't you meddling too much?"

“……” Queen Mother Wang didn’t expect that her good intentions would be met with criticism. For a moment, she didn’t know what to say.

"Bingbing, the queen means well, don't lose your temper."

Cheng Long patted the white-haired witch's shoulders. Bingbing, who had a fierce look on her face just now, immediately retreated behind him. Her respectful attitude made the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother very envious.

They actually missed such a loyal fairy.

I regret it!
However, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother also understood that it would be impossible for the White-haired Witch to attain immortality if she stayed in Yaochi. She could only rely on the magical objects such as the elixir of life and the peaches, and become a pseudo-immortal with youth but no immortal cultivation.

Once such gods and Buddhas make mistakes, they will be stripped of their immortal status and cast down to the mortal world.

Those who have overcome tribulations and become immortals will not have such concerns.

If the White-haired Witch is unhappy one day, she can resign from the position of King of Fengdu at any time and become a free and carefree immortal.

Staying in the underworld to work is just to obtain resources for cultivation.

Just like Cheng Long's tireless efforts in killing people and demons, in the final analysis, it is all for the sake of progress.

They all want to improve so much!

"My two Taoist friends, if you have free time in the future, why not go to Lingshan and discuss Taoism with us?" Sakyamuni invited warmly.

"Let's talk about it later."

Cheng Long gave an ambiguous answer.

Obviously, he doesn't really want to go to Lingshan.

Sakyamuni did not mind and said with a smile: "Then I'll take my leave."

"Farewell!"

After the two Buddhas of the Great Leiyin Temple left.

Cheng Long, the White-haired Witch, Golden Swallow, and Fan Lihua all looked at the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother.

Normally, the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother would make an excuse to leave if they were being watched. However, at this moment, the two of them had no intention of leaving. Instead, they asked a question that surprised Cheng Long.

"My dear friend, before you leave, could you please give Xiaoyanzi a name?"

"Well, we should give her a status, but Yan Zi's parents had already..." more than a hundred years ago... Cheng Long was hesitant to speak. It's not that he didn't want to hold a wedding and give Jin Yan Zi a status.

But Jin Yanzi has no relatives or friends, and she is also an outsider, so it doesn't matter whether she does it or not.

"Actually..." The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother looked at each other and said, "Xiaoyanzi's parents are not dead, because the Jin couple from a hundred years ago were none other than our reincarnations through reincarnation."

Queen Mother immediately said, "The hairpin on her head is a self-defense weapon I made. It has unparalleled lethality to immortals who have taken the elixir of immortality."

"..."

Cheng Long suddenly understood what was going on. No wonder Xiaoyanzi, a girl from an ordinary official family, could easily kill the Jade Border God of War with the inheritance. It turned out that this was a backup plan left by the Queen Mother!

"I do not believe!"

Jin Yanzi found it hard to accept and yelled at the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother.

I was only ten years old when my parents were killed!

If their biological parents are really the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, then they are clearly capable of protecting themselves and blessing the villagers, so why did they ignore them?

She, a ten-year-old girl, had to bear hatred and wander around until she was eighteen, when she met her current husband and could only live a good life!
"Swallow, it's true. His Majesty and I are really your parents..." The Queen Mother's face was full of tenderness. She did not recognize Golden Swallow at the beginning because the lifespan of mortals is limited. After one hundred and eighty years of reincarnation, the causal relationship with them would be severed.

But it is different now. Jin Yanzi, who followed Cheng Long, has resources and skills, and her Taoism is becoming more and more advanced. She is almost catching up with them. It is believed that in a few years, Xiao Yanzi will also be able to overcome the tribulation and become an immortal like Bingbing.

If they don't recognize them now, Xiaoyanzi may not pay attention to them even if they want to recognize them in the future.

"Swallow, come to your father quickly and let him take a good look at you."

The Jade Emperor's eyes are full of kindness, like a good father who loves his daughter.

But no matter how Cheng Long and the White-haired Witch looked at it, they felt that the fatherly and motherly love of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother at this time was a bit hypocritical.

However, this matter depends on Jin Yanzi's attitude. If Xiao Yanzi is willing to recognize them, then they are relatives. If they are not willing, they will also protect Xiao Yanzi.

Don't give the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother the opportunity to harass each other.

"Don't come over here. Give me some time to slow down..."

Jin Yanzi, who had always thought that she had no worries, could not accept this fact. It was not even true. At least without strong evidence, these words were just the one-sided words of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother.

"..."

The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother were silent for a moment, then said helplessly: "Well, we'll come visit you another day."

In the past, they would disappear for five hundred years to practice, but in fact, they were constantly reincarnating and cultivating, comprehending the mortal world, and planning the underworld and exploring the mysteries of reincarnation.

During this process, the couple gave birth to many children, and Jin Yanzi was just one of them.

The hairpin was left to Jin Yanzi only because the five hundred years were about to come, and he wanted to pass it on to the right person through his daughter to eliminate the evil Jade Border God of War.

If Cheng Long hadn’t intervened.

Then, after completing her mission, Jin Yanzi would return to the human world alone and find someone to marry, or remain alone and enter reincarnation after death to complete her karma. It was the appearance of Cheng Long that changed Jin Yanzi's life.

As a result, the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother were unable to sever the causal relationship between them and Golden Swallow.

The reason they have been reunited until now is only because it has become profitable to recognize a daughter.

If Cheng Long can help the White-haired Witch to overcome the tribulation and become an immortal, he must be able to help Golden Swallow to overcome the tribulation and become an immortal as well.

If they recognize each other now, and Jin Yanzi overcomes the tribulation and becomes an immortal in the future, then the Heavenly Court will have another immortal, and may even be able to win over the King of Fengdu in the underworld.

After the Journey to the West, even though Buddhism flourished, what difference did it make? Under the control of their family of three, Heaven was always the most powerful force above the three realms.

……

Late at night.

RV living room, on the sofa.

Cheng Long lay on the White-haired Witch's thighs with his eyes closed, while Jin Yanzi lay in front of the window, gazing at the moon from time to time, looking like she was worried about something.

The Ghost King 'Mrs. Xue' had been sent into the Soul-Nourishing Jade by Cheng Long at this time. The Netherworld space inside had purer Yin energy than the underworld, without even a trace of evil spirit, so it could be refined very quickly.

Whenever she has nothing to do, she will take the initiative to suggest practicing in the Soul-Nourishing Jade.

"Xiaoyanzi, if you don't want to acknowledge your relatives, with me and the master here, no one can force you. I really don't know what you are worried about."

The white-haired witch massaged Cheng Long's temples with moderate force, and after a while she began to massage his shoulders, unable to stop for a moment.

She likes this feeling.

"Hey~~ If you resist from the bottom of your heart, I don't have to worry!"

Jin Yanzi sighed quietly, her worried brows still showing.

She thought that after a hundred years, she would forget the years she spent with her parents. But it turned out not to be the case. On the contrary, because the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother revealed their reincarnation, her memory was deepened from the time she could remember at the age of three to the time when the village encountered a disaster when she was eight.

Before her parents were killed by the heavenly soldiers, they did not treat her badly but doted on her.

She was able to survive because her mother put her in the well for safety.

It is precisely because of this that Jin Yanzi is so persistent in seeking revenge on the God of War Yujiang.

I thought that after revenge, everything would be over.

You can also live a happy life.

As a result, at this time, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother suddenly revealed their identities and wanted to recognize her as their daughter.

Really, what were you doing so far?
The age from eight to eighteen should be a girl’s happiest time of youth.

But her youth was all spent on practicing martial arts, killing people, throwing knives, and wandering around.

These ten years were the worst experiences she was most reluctant to recall.

"Take your time to think about it. Let's go to bed!"

Cheng Long stretched lazily and called Bingbing, who had transformed from an ordinary person into a fairy with an extraordinary temperament, into the room.

Soon, Bingbing's pleasant singing could be heard from inside, and after a while, Jin Yanzi also walked in with a red face.

……

1990 12 Month 20 Day.

Hong Kong General News, Tokyo.

Inside a five-star hotel in Ginza.

Cheng Long, who returned from the world of Kung Fu Hustle, looked at Qingzi in the bathroom, and couldn't help but sigh at the passing of time on his face.

After staying in the magical mythological world for more than a hundred years, Qingzi didn't even rinse her mouth when she came back.

This second seems to last so long!

"Qingzi and Xiaoyanzi are both optimistic. If they knew each other, they would definitely become very good sisters."

Cheng Long recalled that Jin Yanzi was worried for half the night, and the next day she ran to heaven to reunite with her parents, and on the third day she came back to live with him. She never let her worries last overnight, and was a typical optimist.

But that’s fine too.

With the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother taking care of her, Jin Yanzi's safety doesn't need to be a concern for herself. After Bingbing overcomes the tribulation and becomes an immortal, no one dares to pay attention to her either.

So, after Cheng Long got married to the two of them, he left within two years.

When he left, Sun Wukong was still making trouble in the underworld, but he was making trouble in Yinshan, where the King of Hell was in charge, and Fengdu, where the Empress was in charge. If the monkey dared to make trouble, Bingbing would dare to kill him.

She didn't care whether Journey to the West was the trend of the world or whether Buddhism should flourish.

In short, the underworld is not a place where a monkey from the Yinshen realm can cause trouble.

If a fight breaks out, not only the White-haired Witch who has transcended tribulations to become an immortal, but even the ghost servant Fan Lihua beside her can easily kill her.

"Long-san, why are you looking at me?"

Not long after, Qingzi finished washing up and skipped back to Cheng Long. Although she had never experienced time travel, she still noticed something different out of her female intuition.

"I miss you!"

Cheng Long pulled Qingzi into his arms with one hand and climbed up Yuling Mountain with the other hand as usual.

"Long Sang, when did you become so clingy? I just..." There are some things that Qingzi has done many times, but she still can't say them out loud.

Being able to do something but not being able to say it is sometimes so contradictory.

"It's different. You were the one who was naughty before, but now it's my turn."

Cheng Long turned over, pressed Qingzi under him, and started to touch her all over.

The two people who were supposed to check out in the morning were delayed until noon, and their travel plans were postponed.

Since Christmas is in these few days, Cheng Long did not leave Tokyo for the next few days. Instead, he planned to spend Christmas with Qingzi before returning to Hong Kong.

Qingzi, who thought the man would only stay for two or three days and then leave, was so happy that she was filled with joy. She didn't go home for five days in a row, as if she had forgotten that she had an old father at home.

If Imamura didn't know that his daughter was in Tokyo, he would probably suspect that Kiyoko had run away from home again.

On Christmas Eve, Qingzi took Cheng Long's arm and walked happily into a western restaurant, saying as she walked: "Mr. Long, I heard that this restaurant is very romantic and the dining environment is very comfortable. I must try it tonight..."

"Honestly, I don't think a candlelight dinner is that great. If you really want to make it more romantic, go back and buy me a few more uniforms to wear. That would be much more romantic than this."

"Long-san, I will definitely wear the uniform later. Now that I'm here, I might as well try it on first!"

Just as Qingzi was acting coquettishly, Cheng Long suddenly noticed a corner out of the corner of his eye where a woman wearing a kimono and a hairpin was sitting.

Sitting opposite the woman in kimono was a handsome man wearing a suit and tie.

"Jiezi, today is our seventh wedding anniversary. It's also Christmas. We must have a good drink." The man raised his glass and said romantically.

"Hmm~"

Jiezi raised her wine glass and took a sip.

Cheng Long heard the conversation between the two and, based on their appearances, he had roughly guessed each other's origins.

If I'm not mistaken, this woman in kimono named Yuko should be Xiuxiu, the childhood sweetheart that Tietou risked his life to sneak across the country to find.

Tietou had been looking for it for several months but couldn't find it. But he met it while having a meal. Life is really amazing! (End of this chapter)
