[Journey to the West] The Cave Master Is a Fuzzy-Things Enthusiast

Bai Yunsheng became a white cloud drifting over the sea. After absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, he became an immortal and settled on an immortal island shaped like a lingzhi mushroom.

No one ever visited the island, but it was home to all kinds of fluffy little animals, each one so adorable that Bai Yunsheng's eyes turned into hearts.

The tiger that roared through the forest rolled around at his feet. The lion that ruled the grasslands lay flat and let him pet it to his heart's content. The nine-tailed fox loved snuggling in his arms, while the leopard covered in coin-shaped spots liked to scare the palm-sized bunnies...

Surrounded by fluffy creatures, Bai Yunsheng taught them culture in the morning and magic in the afternoon, hoping to raise a well-mannered, wholesome bunch of fluffballs.

He thought this would be his life forever, until a monkey arrived on the island, striving to become an immortal.

Bai Yunsheng: "Oh, so this is Journey to the West."
