Reborn as Old Zhu, the Main Character

“Why did you become an envoy instead of a Buddha?”

“Did one of the five members of your group badmouth you and tell the Tathagata about your laziness?”

“It must have been! Even though you…”

The Journey to the West was complete. Tang Sanzang became a Buddha, Wukong became a Buddha, and Sha Wujing received the golden body of an Arhat.

Only I, Zhu Bajie, was left with the title “Altar-Cleansing Envoy.”

The world laughs at me for being lazy, greedy, and lecherous, and for having no ambition.

Even my former brothers talk behind my back!

Why?! I, Old Zhu, risked my life and fought demons and monsters, only to end up without even a chance to become a Buddha?!

Bajie is reborn and gets his dream of being the protagonist.

Was it all a twist of fate, or was it always written in the stars?

[Journey to the West spin-off + Zhu Bajie reborn as the protagonist + another world + no romance + no power fantasy] Please don’t read if any of this bothers you. Thank you.
