The Little Tavern on the Journey to the West: Even the Sages Can't Sit Still

Ye Chen arrives in the world of Journey to the West and lives as an ordinary mortal for three years, unaware that he has bound to a Great Dao Inner Voice Broadcast System. Other people can randomly hear his thoughts, but he himself has no idea. To make matters worse, the System comes with a Great Dao Domain that makes him invincible. Following the principle that if you can’t get a piece of meat, you might as well spit in the pot, Ye Xuan figures that since he has no chance of becoming an immortal or Buddha, he might as well open a tavern and spend every day lazing around and complaining. One day, an old monk suddenly shows up, going on about Mahayana Buddhism and the pilgrimage to the West... Ye Chen can’t help but grumble: Here we go, here we go! The pig-butchering scam is here... This Cihang really is a seasoned swindler! Daoist Cihang: “...?” What kind of person is this? Li Shimin: “That tavern keeper said the pilgrimage is a pig-butchering scam?” Heavenly Emperor Zhang Youren: “What? I’m a complete idiot and a huge sucker?!” Great Emperor Fengdu: “The Underworld belongs to my Mystic Sect!” Daoist Cihang: “Just who is this mighty expert?” Taishang and Yuanshi: “Could the Heavenly Dao have changed? Could the Mystic Sect rise again?” Master Tongtian: “What? He said the Jie Sect can be revived?” And so, factions everywhere go wild with speculation. Some think Ye Chen is an ancient mighty expert, others think he is Tongtian’s evil corpse, an old survivor of the Witch Clan, or a Sage of the Human Path. Some even believe he is a clone of Hongjun... A massive battle between all sides now seems inevitable.
