Apart from a few smaller ones, the monkeys transformed by Sun Wukong were taller than cedar trees, measuring between twelve and thirteen meters.
Their enormous bodies fell from the sky, cracking the earth.
But many more blocked Kaido's path, their body hair glowing intense red in the dark environment.
"Sizzle-!"
Invisible blades formed by the **Magic Word** tore apart the monkeys charging at him, one by one.
Shredded by the rampant **Word Magic**, they transformed back into golden monkey fur as they floated in the air, then were soaked by the rain and others swept away by the river.
After spending a few seconds eliminating all the smaller monkeys blocking his path, Kaido, who was about to give chase, stopped.
"The monkey said he was going to find helpers. Could he be talking about those two?"
Kaido raised an eyebrow, considering this possibility.
Anyone who has read *Journey to the West* knows that, besides the White Dragon Horse and Tang Seng, the most crucial figures in *Journey to the West* are Sun Wukong, Zhu Ganglie, and Sha Heshang—the three sworn brothers.
Given the scenario of Heretic Gods, there's more than a ninety percent chance that the helpers Sun Wukong mentioned finding are the remaining two.
Even if the Bodhisattvas and the Buddha existed, their characteristics in mythology would prevent them from answering Sun Wukong's call.
"Oh, Lord Demon King from a foreign land, your knights and concubines have encountered trouble at the foot of the mountain. They should need your help now."
Particles of white light condensed next to Kaido, forming a small human figure. Princess Alice, with her crystal eyes and a beauty surpassing mortals, bowed before him.
"Trouble? Haven't they already left?"
Kaido looked at Princess Alice, whose expression was solemn, and asked in confusion.
"During the time the Monkey King delayed you and Luo Hao, he used sorcery to summon his companions. One of them is mischievous and lustful by nature, and after discovering his tracks upon birth, he is now rushing there."
Princess Alice briefly explained the situation to Kaido.
"I understand."
Kaido's expression turned cold. Just as he was about to leave, he turned to look at Princess Alice.
"Where are you going now? It's very dangerous for you here too."
"Your Majesty need not worry. Although I am not skilled in combat, I know some methods of escape. Now that the Monkey King has reappeared in the human world, he will surely cause damage around him. The humans outside are unable to resist the calamities brought by the gods, so I also wish to do something for them."
Princess Alice smiled slightly. A pale silver lightning bolt crossed the sky, illuminating the girl's face and granting her a delicate and indescribable beauty.
"As you wish, but if you encounter any danger, call my name, and I will come immediately."
Kaido nodded without hesitation, transforming into a ray of light and flying towards the foot of the mountain.
"You should be more careful."
Princess Alice cast a complex glance at the figure of light moving through the darkness, then sighed softly before transforming into particles of light and disappearing again.

The changes occurring on Nikko Mountain filled Erica and the others, who had just escaped, with terror and excitement.
This experience of escaping right under the noses of a Heretic God was not considered shameful by them; rather, it would become a valuable honor in their life experiences.
Abandoning the battlefield in the vehicles they arrived in, as they couldn't help in the battle, they began to consider strategies for managing the aftermath once the war ended.
The battle between Gods and God Slayers would undoubtedly cause immense economic losses in the surrounding areas, and the reasons for concealing the news and the information blockade would require significant human and material resources.
Sayanomiya Kaoru parked the car at an empty rest stop and took out her calculator. As she looked at the numbers, her expression turned troubled.
Repair and management costs were all real money.
In addition to economic losses, the imminent opening of the "**Ghost Gate**" was also quite a troublesome problem.
Erica and Liliana, on the other hand, were discussing how long the war would last and arranging top-tier hotel services to welcome the King's return.
Neither of them considered the possibility of Kaido's defeat, wholeheartedly believing he would be victorious.
Alice was reporting the situation to the headquarters of the Council of Mage Kings.
However, perhaps because discussing serious topics was too boring, these girls quickly changed the subject of their conversation, uniformly pointing to Kaido, who had brought them together.
"Your name is Ena Seishuuin, right? Did you hear the King's previous request?"
Erica looked at the black-haired Miko holding a broken sword, standing by the window and looking at the rain.
"The King told me to stay, so I guess I'm the King's concubine now."
Ena Seishuuin said.
"Yuri Mariya is also here. With her clumsiness, she might unknowingly anger the King, and at that time, she'll need Ena's help."
At that moment, the former sword-wielding Miko clapped her hands and laughed.
"Yuri Mariya, don't worry. From now on, whether it's for intimacy with the King or having children, I'll be by your side to guide you."
"Ena... wha-what are you saying? G-giving birth!"
Upon hearing her friend's abrupt declaration, Yuri Mariya froze in place, her sense of shame instantly exploding, causing her face to flush.
"Excellent, since the King is getting more and more concubines, I should manage the King's harem as First Knight."
Erica nodded with a smile fitting of a principal wife, then volunteered herself without hesitation.
"This kind of thing should be left to me, as I am more meticulous and assist the King as First Knight."
Liliana intervened, not wanting to be left behind.
"Hohoho... I never thought timid Liliana would be so brave."
Erica's eyebrows arched, and she covered her mouth, letting out a mocking laugh.
"As for the principal wife, don't you think I'm the most suitable? As the White Princess of Europe, whether by status or daily management, I should be above all of you..."
Just as Princess Alice also smiled and intervened, provoking general indignation, a presence from outside the window instantly made the girls in the room grasp their weapons, and the **Word Spirit** within their bodies surged.
Their beautiful eyes were fixed on the increasingly sinister aura.
Finally, a thundering, low laugh exploded in their ears.
"Hahahaha, may Buddha bless it, I didn't expect to encounter these beautiful ladies right after being summoned by my Eldest Brother!"
The rain continued to fall, and the wind blowing through the bent treetops produced a slightly strange sound.
"Wh-what is that thing?"
Yuri Mariya looked at the black mist that had fallen directly in front of the rest area, her face pale.
The Miko's spiritual vision allowed her to see the shape of a monster.
Being naturally timid and without combat ability, it was already a testament to her strong will that she hadn't fainted.
"Divine beast? No... it's something more troublesome than a divine beast."
Princess Alice also stopped smiling, her delicate body swaying with the strong winds that rose, just as Kaido had said before, her body had not fully healed.
"I really don't like that thing."
The black-haired miko Ena Seishuuin gripped the broken Ame no Murakumo no Tsurugi, her expression grim and cautious.
"It's not a divine beast? Then it's a Heretic God?"
Princess Alice is the most excellent witch in the world. Although her combat power is not exceptional, regarding intelligence and spiritual vision, if she claims to be second, no one dares to say they are first.
What's more, Sayanomiya Kaoru herself was a Miko. Feeling the filth and terror hidden in the black mist, she stopped paying attention to the boring calculator and, instead, trembled while gathering the **Word Sorcery**.
"My wings, iron that becomes the sword of illusion. Master, grant me strength!"
Liliana chanted a **Magic Word**, grasping a long silver-white sword that appeared from the air.
"Wait a moment, Liliana."
Just as she was about to attack first, Erica called out to her just in time.
"What is it?"
At that moment, the form of the black mist changed, and a black monster appeared.
It was a fat and chubby figure, of prosperous build, its flabby flesh shaking with every movement, as if fat could drip from it at any moment.
However, beneath that large amount of fat, solid muscle was hidden.
Its face was even more terrifying: it wasn't a human face; its nose was long, and its face was covered with dense, short black hair.
Short, stubby triangular ears stood erect, and a pair of short, sharp fangs protruded from both sides of its pig-like snout.
And those small, round eyes, when they looked at Erica and the other girls, immediately revealed excited and lustful gazes.
Their naked stares made them feel a deep disgust.
A Heretic God!
**Zhu Ganglie** from *Journey to the West*!
The Magic emanating from the stubborn man was quite obvious, and combined with the Monkey King who had appeared on Nikko Mountain, the stubborn man's identity was not a secret to the girls.
"Hehehe... I didn't expect all these beautiful young ladies to be together, saving me the trouble of searching everywhere, hehe... Your lips are like cherries, and your figures enchant me..."
Zhu Ganglie, who had appeared in the human world, shook his flabby body and said with a lewd smile, looking at the girls.
"Heretic God, what is your purpose in coming here? There is no God Slayer present."
Princess Alice suppressed her disgust and fear, feigning a dignified demeanor and asking with an elegant posture.
"Hahahaha... Fighting and killing is not something Old Pig likes. I've only just arrived in the mortal realm, and the first thing I must do, of course, is to enjoy it to the fullest."
"Enjoy?"
Upon hearing Zhu Ganglie's words, Princess Alice asked in confusion.
Although the evil gods who had appeared so far had caused various problems in the human world, they had never heard of anything bringing them more pleasure than combat.
"That's right, although prioritizing the Buddha's Dharma is the Buddha's teaching, this world is vast. Wine, gambling, women, breasts, buttocks, beautiful legs... there are many more treasures in the human world waiting for me!"
Zhu Ganglie patted his belly, his gaze fixed on Princess Alice's face.
The saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth had already fallen to the ground.
"So, what exactly do you want to do? To you, we are just weak and powerless women. Not even a powerful Heretic God would specifically target defenseless women, would they?"
Erica intervened.
Although their combined strength could compete with a divine beast, if their opponent was a Heretic God, they would have no chance of winning.
"Of course, I, Old Piggy, wouldn't consider you opponents, beautiful ladies. On the contrary, I will cherish and enjoy you properly!"
As Zhu Ganglie spoke, he slowly walked towards the girls, his eyes filled with intense lust.
"So I hope you can put down your toys; that way it will be more comfortable."
"..."
Upon hearing Zhu Ganglie's words, none of the girls present failed to understand what he meant.
Just looking at his disgusting and corpulent figure, the girls felt the most primal revulsion from within their hearts.
Moreover, they had already recognized Kaido as their master, so how could they allow this monster to brazenly defile their bodies?
"Hehe... that's not up to you, young ladies."
Saying this, Zhu Ganglie's gaze shifted towards Yuri Mariya, who had been hiding behind Ena Seishuuin, and Hikari Mariya, who was unconscious in her arms, and he smiled.
"...Ah!"
Being observed by a Heretic God with those lust-filled eyes, Yuri Mariya's delicate body trembled violently, revealing an extremely frightened expression.
The Miko's spiritual vision granted her powerful intuition, but it also allowed her to see the essence of a God of Disobedience more clearly than an average person.
Zhu Ganglie's essence, besides his demonic divinity, was also filled with desire, tyranny, and cruelty.
If she fell into his hands, her fate would definitely not be pleasant at all.
"Little beauties, Old Piggy is coming for you!"
The pot-bellied Zhu Ganglie swelled with **Word Sorcery** and charged towards Erica, who was closest to him.
"So fast!"
The blonde girl, who had already prepared for battle, was instantly stunned. Despite having her vision enhanced by magic, she couldn't even clearly see the moving figure of the pig.
