"a mermaid huh? you are full of surprises" Macaque chuckles, "shut it.." she says angrily, "Oh don't be so angy friendo.. but I can't help but wonder.. you seem to have multiple powers within you..", "Yeah... I have more stuff then you think.. now let's go and get those heroes to my lady before she ends the both of us .." she says in a stern tone, macaque shrugs "whatever you say"

after a few mins of swimming around, they find the kingdom of the great dragon of the East Sea.. they notice the broken drone has now turned into a van, "a van...in the water?" xiùyīng asked confusedly, "looks like they arrived and had fun and drank tea like any royal family will do.." macaque smirks, she rolls her eyes and watches the group run away in their van and the great Ao Guang dragon of the east.. turning his angry gaze at them.. xiùyīng returns the glare.. "Ao Guang.." the girl whispers.. her voice full of anger.. she seems to have a huge grudge against him.. macaque snickers "They sent you to slow me down?", the great dragon of the east sea narrows his eyes at the dark-furred monkey and the mermaid girl near him "you two and the one you serve are not welcomed in this city.."

xiùyīng summons her spear and points it at the dragon not intimidated, macaque snickers again "You don't really think you can stop me.. right?".. macaque summons his shadow clones and his smoke monster and Ao Guang summons his phantom dragon and some soldiers decide to assist in fighting alongside their king to keep the city safe from the enemies.. and the fighting begins.. the shadow clones either pin the fighters or just slam them or hit them with full power... xiùyīng transformed back into her human form so she can fight easily, also stabbed a few soldiers with her spear after one of them punched her in the face.. meanwhile macaque and Ao Guang were fighting.. every hit with full power and determination on beating one another.. macaque finally slams the great dragon of the east to the ground

"you've lost..now.. tell me where the kid and his friends went", Ao Guang glares at him "I won't tell.. you.. a thing" Macaque raises his fist and looks like he will deal his final blow on him..

xiùyīng grasps Macaque's shoulder in a firm grip "Don't.." she orders in a stern tone and her eyes are narrowed and full of concern.. the dragon glances at the girl his eyes are open in shock, macaque sneers "Why? he clearly won't tell us a thing about them.. he should be dead.." xiùyīng glares at him "no we arent gonna kill anyone! This mission is about-" "About what? Your mission is to watch and follow the rules.. nothing more" he spoke in an angry tone, the girl glared at him "Well if I am certain about something.. killing someone won't make information come out of them!" macaque snarls "oh so now you are into peace..", "it isn't about peace!" xiùyīng sighs shakily "I know someone who would probably want him dead.. but we have to find mk and sun wukong without any. deaths. " ao guang raises an eyebrow at the girl.. why is she saving him?

macaque narrows his eyes at her "Just.. let me deal with this.. 'kay?" she tries to sound calm and lets go of Macaque's shoulder then turns her gaze to an injured soldier "Hey you!" the injured soldier turns to look at her, his expression was pained.. "do you know where are they heading?", "n-no but-" the soldier takes a glance at Ao Guang wondering if he should tell them, xiùyīng lets out a groan of frustration "Just say it already or I burn your entire city into CRISP!" her hair flares up for a second and fire come out of her mouth, the soldier looks terrified "f-fine fine! the came here with a map!" ao guang curses the soldier under his breath and macaque raises an eyebrow "a map you say?..", "y-yeah a map.. an old one.. a weapon to defeat lady bone demon!", xiùyīng narrows her eyes at the soldier "anything else?..", "n-no.. that all I heard.. that's ALL we heard.." the soldier answered in a shivering tone,

xiùyīng nods then turns her gaze to macaque and shrugs "see?.. no need to murder someone who.. kind of deserve it.." macaque scoffs and slams ao guang to the ground, ao guang grunts in pain then macaque and walks away "fine.. lets go..", xiùyīng nods before she turns her gaze to ao guang "you should be thanking me, old man.." ao guang looks at her "who are you?..", "i am.. xiuying..", "the way you fight.. the way you summoned your spear.. it almost looks like.." his eyes widen slightly in shock, "yeah.. i know.. and you are right! but.. that was long time ago.. anyway.." she turns around and heads toward where macaque left "good bye old man!", ao guang stared at the girl in shock and then the soldier headed to his king "great dragon of the east.. are you okay?" asked a hint of concern in his voice, "no.. i am not okay.. you doomed us all.." the dragon narrowed his eyes at the soldier, "i.. i didnt have a choice sir.. but is it me or this girl fights like the third lotus prince?" the soldier wondered.

"yeah... I got the same thought.." the dragon said.. who.. is she?..
