[Filial piety was the monkey-opera costume Yuan Man wore for thirty years. Then mythology revived, false Buddhas sat on lotus thrones and harvested incense offerings, and his mother faced danger. Could Yuan Man become his mother's Great Sage Equal to Heaven?]
“Great Sage, lend me your wisdom and keep my foolish son safe all his life.”
His mother knelt before the Great Sage's statue, knocking her head until it bled.
The Great Sage said nothing.
Only Yuan Man, crouched in the corner, heard the reply:
“Heh heh, no problem, no problem.”
He had pretended to be a fool for thirty years.
Drooling and dressed in a shabby monkey-opera costume, he begged beneath the overpass. People laughed at him, called him crazy, kicked his bowl, and spat in his face.
All he did was scratch his head and grin foolishly. “No problem... no problem~”
Until the day his mother's heart monitor flatlined.
Until the talisman engraved with “All Wishes Granted” poured black energy into his mother's seven orifices.
He stood up.
The moment his back straightened, the night sky over the entire city of Jiang trembled.
It's a bit mediocre. All 45 chapters focus on the protagonist's efforts to save his mother, etc. Overall, there aren't any particularly bad parts. It's really a matter of personal preference. If you like fast-paced, exciting stories, don't come here. At this pace, it'll be at least 70 or 80 chapters before his mother is even considered dead, and only then will the protagonist awaken the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.
I don't understand it; it's nonsensical and even frustrating. It doesn't match the title; it's too weak.
