Sun Wukong carried the Bull Demon King back to Tang Sanzang and Sha Wujing's place, and it didn't take long for Zhu Bajie to return as well. After explaining the situation in detail, Tang Sanzang nodded and said, "Since the matter here is concluded, Wukong, you should quickly take the Bull Benefactor home. Previously, we assisted Bodhisattva Guanyin in taking their child; this is already an inconvenience for the Bull Benefactor's family. If anything else happens to the Bull Benefactor, it would be a grave sin."
Regarding Guanyin taking in Hong Hai'er, Sun Wukong and Tang Sanzang felt a sense of guilt, but there was little point in discussing it further at this stage. Sun Wukong nodded, quickly carried the Bull Demon King, and returned him to the Banana Leaf Cave of Emerald Cloud Mountain. He first apologized to the Iron Fan Princess and explained the situation concerning Hong Hai'er, then described in detail how the Bull Demon King was rescued.
