I Just Became a Confucian Sage, and You're Telling Me This Is Journey to the West?

He transmigrates as Kong Qiu, and, even more absurdly, this world actually has demons, monsters, and ghosts.

Fortunately, he awakens a golden finger. As long as he spreads his teachings and enlightens his disciples, his power will keep growing.

So Kong Qiu travels from state to state, taking on disciples and spreading Confucianism, while dealing with the demons and monsters he encounters along the way.

He casually takes a monkey as a disciple, only to hear: "I hail from the Water Curtain Cave on Flower-Fruit Mountain, and my nickname is Handsome Monkey King."

Kong Qiu stares blankly. I've become a Confucian sage, so why are you telling me this is Journey to the West?

Five hundred years later, a reckless monkey appears, shouting, "The Master does not speak of strange things, feats of strength, chaos, or spirits," as he beats the gods and Buddhas of the myriad heavens senseless.

"The Master said: Since you are here, make yourself at home."

"Since I, Sun Wukong, have come, you can all be buried here."

The gods and Buddhas of the myriad heavens: Run! Sun Wukong, disciple of the Confucian sage Kong Qiu, is storming Heaven with his staff!!!

Kong Qiu: Monkey, what the hell have you learned!!!
