Journey to the West: A Roc's Dream

[Peacock bottom x Great Peng top. The bottom has a System and knows the plot, but only wants to fill his stomach. This is just a sweet little romance and doesn't change the original plot.]

What would come of a crack in space and time, a soul from a thousand years in the future, and a peacock egg with a shell but no life inside?

They would become him, Kong Jingyu!

On the tenth day of his soul wandering near the site of a car accident, Kong Jingyu happened to glimpse a speck of light. Curious, he walked over, crouched down, and reached out to touch it.

The moment he made contact, everything went black and he lost consciousness.

When he opened his eyes again, he'd transmigrated into Journey to the West as a young member of the ancient, primordial peacock clan. Living in Peacock Valley with his older sister, Kong Qinglan, he had a wonderful life, at least as long as he didn't think about what he ate.

Kong Jingyu when he first learned he'd been reborn as a yao: Hehe.

Kong Jingyu when he learned the yaos in Journey to the West were doomed: Not hehe.

Kong Jingyu when he discovered peacocks weren't low-status and didn't appear explicitly in Journey to the West: Hehe.

A yao! Sure, they weren't as powerful as immortals, but they lived a long time and could cultivate and use spells!

But his happiness didn't last long. His rose-colored glasses shattered when he learned that a few hundred years old was only just reaching adulthood here, and that day to day, all he could do was gnaw on fruit and drink flower dew!

Kong Jingyu, whose mouth was so bland it could grow feathers: Not hehe.

To keep himself from dying of cravings, Kong Jingyu fought back. He planned to do something big: build up the place and cook delicious food to save his taste buds.

The moment the idea of building things up crossed his mind, a “ding” rang in his head, and something appeared in his account.

With the guidance of his useless System, Kong Jingyu began his own real-life construction project in the Lion Camel Kingdom, not far from Peacock Terrace.

But why did he run into the Golden-Winged Great Peng Bird while working on the project, and end up with him...?

Was this right? It couldn't be. The Great Peng Bird was from the West and was supposed to have renounced love and desire.

Why was he chasing after him? That couldn't be right, could it?

Kong Jingyu was confused. He struggled, then finally gave up and decided to lie flat.

But before he did, he had one thing to make absolutely clear: He wasn't into furries. Bird heads on human bodies? Back off, back off!

Come find him again when you can take a completely human form!

--His little brother gets stolen away--

Kong Qinglan looked at the man her little brother had brought home as his brother-in-law, scoffed, pushed down the sunglasses her brother had given her with two fingers, and pulled out a feather fan to beat him. A lecher like that deserved it!

Jin Mo wasn't about to take that lying down. He fought back, spreading his wings and flashing his feathers like crazy.

Kong Jingyu buried his head in his arms and silently wailed beside them. Stop fighting, please! What will it take for you to call it quits? The pigs I just castrated are about to get blown away!
