#2405 - No need to rush
The moment Maitreya Buddha unleashed the Man-Species Sack, Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Seng were immediately bound by a powerful suction force.
Even Sun Wukong felt the powerful attraction, but he could still resist it with his own strength.
However, Zhu Bajie and Tang Sanzang had no ability to resist such a powerful attraction and were quickly sucked into the Man-Species Sack.
"The situation is not good. I'd better hurry and ask my brother for help."
Although Sun Wukong wanted to rescue Tang Sanzang and the others, he could only barely escape the binding force of the Man-Species Sack.
Tang Sanzang and the others had already been sucked into the Man-Species Sack, and Maitreya Buddha's strength was extremely high. Sun Wukong knew that there was no hope for him to rescue them.
Now, the only thing he could do was to quickly inform Chu Hao of the situation and let Chu Hao take action to rescue Tang Sanzang and the others.
Maitreya Buddha glanced at Tang Sanzang and the others in the Man-Species Sack and said to his subordinates with a smile.
"Now that Tang Sanzang and the others have been captured, immediately return to the base and let His Majesty the Demon Emperor decide."
Maitreya Buddha put away the Man-Species Sack and led the demon soldiers back to the demon lair.
Sun Wukong's Somersault Cloud was also fast, and he quickly arrived before the Prison God Temple.
"Brother, something bad has happened."
Sun Wukong shouted as he entered the Prison God Temple.
The people of the Prison God Temple recognized Sun Wukong and knew the relationship between Sun Wukong and Chu Hao, so they did not stop him from entering.
Sun Wukong arrived at the main hall but did not see Chu Hao. Only Ksitigarbha and the three demon lords were handling the affairs of the Prison God Temple.
"Where is my brother Chu Hao?"
Sun Wukong asked the four of them.
"Lord Prison God went to the Heavenly Court's Peach Banquet and has not yet returned."
"The Peach Festival will last for a few days. If you are anxious, go to West Sea Yaochi to find him."
"If you are not in a hurry, you can also stay in the Prison God Temple and wait for Lord Prison God to return."
Hearing what Ksitigarbha and the three lords said, Sun Wukong was worried about the safety of Tang Sanzang and the others, so how could he wait?
He directly left the Prison God Temple and turned towards West Sea Yaochi.
The Peach Festival lasted for three days. West Sea Yaochi was filled with singing and dancing, and Chu Hao was also toasting and drinking with the gods, looking carefree.
When Sun Wukong arrived, it was already near the end of the Peach Festival.
As soon as Sun Wukong arrived at the Peach Festival, he directly found Chu Hao, who was drinking, wanting to tell Sun Wukong about the demons' abduction of Tang Sanzang and the others.
"Don't worry, sit down and have a drink and talk slowly."
Chu Hao said with a smile to Sun Wukong.
"Brother, this is a big deal. We can't delay, otherwise Master and Bajie will be in danger."
Sun Wukong was anxious, how could he sit down to drink and feast?
"Actually, I already know about the matter. Don't worry, Tang Sanzang and the others will not be in danger."
Chu Hao patted Sun Wukong's shoulder and said to him with certainty.
Although Chu Hao was at this Peach Festival, he could see the situation of Tang Sanzang and the others clearly.
Including Guanyin leaving the Western Paradise and defecting to the demons, Chu Hao also knew.
Guanyin offered a plan to let the demons take Tang Sanzang and the others away, all of which were under Chu Hao's control.
The demons abducted Tang Sanzang and the others, wanting to control them and then seize the karma of the Journey to the West. For them, not only would they not harm Tang Sanzang and the others' lives, but they would not even let them hurt a finger.
Otherwise, the Journey to the West plan could not be carried out, and the demons would have no benefit at all.
There were only two ways for the demons to control Tang Sanzang and the others: one was to use demonic energy to completely demonize the three, so as to listen to their control.
This method might have been feasible in the past, but it is not possible now because Tang Sanzang and the others have already reached the foot of Mount Ling.
The Tathagata Buddha would never allow a completely demonized Tang Sanzang to enter Mount Ling, even at the risk of the failure of the Journey to the West plan, and would not hand over the final karma to the demons.
Then, for the demons, there was only the second method: to lure Tang Sanzang and the others with benefits and let them agree to cooperate with the demons.
In fact, Chu Jin was not the first time using this method, so Tang Sanzang and the others would not only be in danger when they arrived at the demons, but also enjoy hospitality.
"Brother is right, but Master and the others are in the hands of the demons after all, and we still have to rescue them."
Hearing Chu Hao say this, Sun Wukong was not in a hurry, sat down and discussed with Chu Hao.
"In this case, we can put on a good show. You follow my method. I guarantee that Tang Sanzang and the others will be rescued soon."
Chu Hao said softly to Sun Wukong, explaining his arrangements to Sun Wukong.
At this moment, Maitreya Buddha also brought Tang Sanzang and the others back to the demons and met the Demon Emperor Chu Jin.
"Tang Sanzang and the others have been captured, but that monkey Sun Wukong is too slippery and let him run away."
Maitreya Buddha reported to Chu Jin.
"It doesn't matter, quickly bring Tang Sanzang and the others out."
Chu Jin nodded and said to Maitreya Buddha.
Maitreya Buddha opened the Man-Species Sack and released Tang Sanzang and the others. The taste in the Man-Species Sack was naturally not good, and Tang Sanzang and the others all had a look of resentment.
"Chu Jin, what are you doing bringing us to the demons?"
"Do you demons also want to harm us?"
"Could it be that you have colluded with the Western Paradise?"
Faced with the angry complaints of Tang Sanzang and the others, Chu Jin immediately put on a kind face and explained to Tang Sanzang and the others with a smile.
"Holy Monk, don't misunderstand. We just want to invite you and your disciples to our demons as guests. We have absolutely no intention of harming you."
Consistent with Chu Hao's expectations, Chu Jin was trying his best to show goodwill to Tang Sanzang and the others.
"Is this how you invite guests? Your demons' way of inviting guests is too special."
Tang Sanzang was already full of anger.
"Holy Monk, don't be angry. Our demons have always been very friendly to you. We have had various cooperations before.
This time, although the method was improper and the Holy Monk and the others were frightened, I will immediately set up a banquet to apologize to you."
As Chu Jin said, he immediately ordered his subordinates to set up a banquet to calm Tang Sanzang and the others.
At this time, Tang Sanzang and Zhu Bajie also saw that the demons wanted to please them. Although there must be some attempt, they would not suffer after all.
"Since that's the case, let's eat and drink our fill before we talk."
Tang Sanzang and the others were also not polite and said to Chu Jin.
During the banquet, Tang Sanzang and the others ate and drank heartily. Seeing this, Chu Jin wanted to speak several times, but he just opened his mouth and shook his head helplessly.
