After Bull Demon King and Wukong joined forces to kill Bodhisattva Ling Ji, they took the Jade-faced Fox and headed towards Water Curtain Cave.
The struggle between Buddhism and Taoism was indeed escalating, with even Laozi's disciple, Bull Demon King, unable to avoid involvement. This time, as the Three Pure Ones plotted against the six Dharma Bodies of the Buddhist Sect, the latter suffered a great loss, and it was feared that Ling Ji would take Bull Demon King to Western Heaven to serve as a mount. Only by humiliating Laozi would they feel satisfied.
However, who would have expected that Bull Demon King's cultivation level had greatly advanced and, with Wukong's assistance, they managed to kill the arriving Ling Ji, who had come to capture him. It turned out to be a loss rather than a gain, a case of the hunter being pecked by the prey.
