Journey to the West: Life Simulation of Sun Wukong

Zhang Tong brought Sun Shisheng, Wang Chao, and Chan Yinsha to the Tianxing Lake Community, to her own villa, number twenty-four, which outwardly resembled Tang Zichen's place, albeit with a different interior layout.

Compared to the elegant simplicity of Tang Zichen's villa, this one was quite a bit more luxurious. Whether it was the furniture or the decorations, everything was high-end, with gold inlays and jade embellishments, the pinnacle of opulence.

The dinner prepared for Sun Shisheng and the other two was made by Zhang Tong's personal chef and was rich in nutrients.

However, for Wang Chao and Chan Yinsha, the portions were a bit scant.

The appetite of these two was comparable to that of a water buffalo, especially Wang Chao, who was on the level of a prehistoric mammoth. No matter how nutritious the food, the amount served would hardly be enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.

Still, since he was a guest, he wasn't so lacking in social graces as to say he hadn't eaten his fill.

So, he decided to let his stomach grumble away!

"Gurr~lumble~"

Zhang Tong was startled at first but then realized and ordered the chef to prepare more food.

The meal went on until eight in the evening before they were barely finished.

Zhang Tong looked at Wang Chao as if he were a monster and gave a thumbs up, "Impressive!"

She had also learned some Wudang swordsmanship, thirteen moves such as withdrawing, carrying, blocking, striking, piercing, pointing, bursting, stirring, washing, pressing, and chopping. Although it was more for show, it was enough for self-defense.

Moreover, the various movements in martial arts are all demonstrated through the body, so she could spot some nuances in those who practiced martial arts.

However, the amount they ate was somewhat unexpected to her.

It was natural for martial artists to have large appetites, but Wang Chao's consumption was startling.

Was this something that got digested as soon as it was eaten?

It seemed a bit fantastical. Spot an error? Visit the original post on M&VLEMPY&R.

Additionally, what caught Zhang Tong's attention was that Chan Yinsha's appetite had also increased significantly. Had she been taught some martial skill that enabled her to quickly absorb nutrients from her food?

She didn't fight, but if she learned this skill, maintaining her health and youthful appearance would probably no longer require cosmetics for cover.

Such secret techniques were generally not shared publicly.

However, since it could be passed on to Chan Yinsha, it meant it could be bought with money.

Thus, a new idea sprang to mind for her.

What puzzled Zhang Tong, though, was that Sun Shisheng ate considerably less, even just consuming some rice and fruits, his meal remarkably light.

Common sense dictates that not everyone who could eat well could fight, but those who could fight definitely had a big appetite.

By that logic, Sun Shisheng should be the weakest of the three.

Yet, it was clear that this youngest, Sun Shisheng, was Wang Chao's boss and apparently had truly won over Chan Yinsha as well.

For Wang Chao, Zhang Tong could still persuade herself with the unrealistic reason of them growing up together, but as for Chan Yinsha...

Zhang Tong knew about Chan Yinsha's temperament.

Firm and unyielding.

Having been defeated by Wang Chao in the ring, it was possible she might become friends with him, but for anyone else, unless they defeated her, there would be no talk of friendship.

In other words, did this Sun Shisheng manage to conquer Chan Yinsha as well after returning to the Thai Boxing Gym?

It seemed so.

In the afternoon's ring fight, only he, as a spectator, was calm and composed, which was enough to prove his exceptional nature.

"For martial artists, it's pretty normal to eat a bit more," Wang Chao said with an air of maturity.

"Do you need your big sister to sponsor you guys?" teased Zhang Tong.

"That won't be necessary," Sun Shisheng chimed in, "However, our martial arts gym also offers hypnosis services. If you're willing to try, I can experiment on you right now."

"Oh? Hypnosis?" Zhang Tong looked intrigued, "In the realm of boxing, this thing is considered an unorthodox practice."

"My hypnosis is different from the others, it's not sleight of hand. Do you want to give it a try?" Sun Shisheng asked again.

"Tong, you should try it. It's very effective for the body's growth," Chan Yinsha knew Sun Shisheng was trying to attract customers, and she didn't mind lending a hand to pull this plastic sister into the mix.

Zhang Tong thought about it, then said, "If that's the case, then give it a try."

But no sooner had Zhang Tong spoken than it seemed as if she saw a pair of eyes like stars, as vast as the universe, and then...

Her eyes closed, and she fell asleep.

"Looks like we'll have to wait until tomorrow to see the results," Sun Shisheng said to Chan Yinsha, "Take her to the bedroom, then leave with us."

Chan Yinsha nodded, picked up Zhang Tong, who was as soft as a sponge, and walked toward the bedroom.

When she came out, she said, "Deep sleep is really miraculous. Zhang Tong was completely like a corpse, allowing me to move her without any resistance, as if she was truly dead, save for her peaceful breathing."

Wang Chao said, "In deep sleep, the brain has no thoughts at all, so it's naturally almost like a corpse."

Chan Yinsha's eyes rested on Sun Shisheng, "Shi Sheng boss, I noticed just now that when I had the thought of attacking Zhang Tong, her body reacted slightly, as if it could automatically dodge my attack, becoming very responsive, though the movements were slow."

"That must be the body's instinct."

"If a common person like Zhang Tong can do this, if we could control that state, wouldn't we be able to dodge any attack?"

"Even if someone tried to kill us in secret, our bodies could automatically evade."

Seeing Chan Yinsha get excited, Sun Shisheng advised, "When your training reaches a higher level, you'll naturally be able to sense it. The mind is the most crucial aspect. Just take it slow."

The three of them left the villa and passed by Tang Zichen's residence, to which Wang Chao said, "Sun, should we go have a look?"

"Let's check it out," Sun Shisheng nodded.

"Whose place is this?" Chan Yinsha asked curiously, "Do you guys know other tycoons?"

Those who could live in the villa community near Tianxing Lake were either rich or noble.

"You'll find out soon enough."

Wang Chao laughed slyly and led the way to the front of the villa, where he pressed the doorbell.

"Ding-dong!"

Sounds of footsteps came from inside the house shortly after, and the door opened to reveal Tang Zichen's figure.

"It's you!"

Chan Yinsha's eyes widened; she knew of Tang Zichen's status but had not expected him to be associated with Sun Shisheng and Wang Chao.

Could it be that their martial arts were taught by Tang Zichen?

No, that's not right!

It's different!

Although she admired Tang Zichen's abilities, they weren't as mystical as Sun Shisheng's, and Wang Chao's skills seemed self-taught, unlike anything taught personally by Tang Zichen.

Indeed, Wang Chao's skills were not imparted by Tang Zichen but were learned by observation during their initial skirmish. Although it bore traces of Eight Trigrams and Tai Chi, it lacked Tang Zichen's essence.

Hence, Chan Yinsha couldn't see it.

"Ah, it's you," Tang Zichen gave Chan Yinsha a few glances, then suddenly smiled, "Looks like you've gained quite a bit from this Mr. Sun Shisheng, your skills have improved notably, but the growth of your physique is even more remarkable."

"But—"

"You still have a way to go when compared with me."

Chan Yinsha clenched her fists in hidden annoyance and jeered, "Your skills are admirable, but this personality of yours is quite irksome."

"Come on in," Tang Zichen said with a beaming smile, inviting Sun Shisheng and the others inside.

In the living room, Tang Zichen brought over a few cups of tea.

"What brings you here?"

"We were passing by and decided to drop in; Wang Chao missed you," Sun Shisheng said indifferently.

"Cough cough!" Wang Chao had just sipped some tea when he choked, coughing continuously, "Sun, don't say things that can be misunderstood, okay?"

Not one to miss stirring things up, Chan Yinsha squinted her eyes and chortled, "Wang Chao, so you like older women, and this 'sister' is even older. Just call her out, who knows, she might give you a chance."

Wang Chao snorted, "I'm not into flat runways."

He could joke with Sun Shisheng, but Chan Yinsha was off-limits.

"What did you say? I am in the middle of normal development!" Chan Yinsha stood up from the fight, put down her teacup, and grasped Wang Chao by the throat.

"Let go! I can't breathe!"

Wang Chao retaliated by grabbing Chan Yinsha by the throat as well.

The two of them then started scrapping childishly.

"These two have similar temperaments, if not for their differing genders, I'd think they were actual siblings," Tang Zichen smiled wryly, his expression turning a bit serious, "You wouldn't have come just because Wang Chao had a whim, especially at this late hour."

Sun Shisheng put down his teacup and replied, "Actually, we just dropped by because Wang Chao wanted to check on you; there is no deeper meaning."

Tang Zichen looked apologetic, "Sorry, I guess I can't easily change my old way of thinking. After all, there are many in this world who wish for my demise."

"If I wanted you dead, I wouldn't need to come in person. Perhaps just a fleeting thought, resonance with the cosmic magnetic field could summon a lightning strike to finish you off," Sun Shisheng explained nonchalantly, "Your Path of Utmost Sincerity couldn't escape the wrath of Heaven either."

"Ah, you're divine," Tang Zichen sighed, speculating about Sun Shisheng's identity, "So, your real identity couldn't possibly be Sun Wukong, could it?"

At this statement, the two brawling on the floor also stopped.

Although they were fighting, both were attentively listening to the conversation between Sun Shisheng and Tang Zichen, not wanting to miss a thing.

After all, their words carry more weight than years of their hard cultivation.

But what is this Sun Wukong thing?

A mythological figure come to life?

Wang Chao could understand Tang Zichen's speculation, as he had previously conjectured about Sun Shisheng's true identity, given his seemingly supernatural abilities.

"Which one are you talking about?"

Sun Shisheng picked up his teacup and took another sip.

This time, Chan Yinsha's eyes also held confusion: Hadn't that cup of tea been empty just now? Tang Zichen hadn't refilled it, so how could it have water again?

And it was still steaming hot!

However, Tang Zichen was momentarily taken aback, "What do you mean by which one?"

"Don't you watch movies or TV?" Sun Shisheng said with a light smile, "A Chinese Odyssey, Journey to the West from '86, TVB's Journey to the West, Crazy Stone Monkey—there are so many themes on Journey to the West and so many Suns Wukong. If you think I'm a reincarnation of Sun Wukong, which one would I be?"

Though Tang Zichen didn't watch movies or follow TV dramas, he answered without hesitation, "The one from the original Journey to the West text, and I'd guess it's the one who has already achieved enlightenment."
