de-fucking-stroyed
. . .I am sorry I just kinda noticed this but Tang Sang/Seng was technically Sunwukong, Sha Wujin and Zhu Bajie teacher wasn't he I only ask this cause the um uphold justice annihilate human desire thing feels like extremist Buddhism as well as the how the story is now it feels like MC is going to play the "Dragon Emporer" while the whiny prince is going to go full Umbrella King in the following chapters I will leave it to everyone's imagination who is Monk Sanzo and the 3 demons
@allenallenallen333 thank you for the chapter
I really really want to know what the Chinese censors thought about this chapter.
The story is about poor peasants rising up against the wealthy elites, warlords, and corruption. Which is similar to the moto or purpose of the Chinese communist revolution. However, you might also say that the modern communist party faces the same problem with elitists, corruption, and wealth gap (but these problems could be anywhere else in the modern world too, but the author is using a Chinese setting). So as a reader, I could interpret this whole manhua as going either way of either supporting or criticizing modern China.

They're probably neutral with it as long as there's no implication that the corrupt ones in the manhua are not the current regime. If you look at Chinese historical drama or movies, corrupt government is like the only theme they have. It's everywhere and while it's somewhat obvious how it mirrors the current regime in many ways, as long as they don't imply that one in movie = real one, they don't seem to do anything about it.

I remember someone who grew up in China telling me that he got scraped by a car and the driver got out and yelled at him for "getting in his way". His uncle was there and confronted the driver with something like a special ID card, maybe a party card, then the driver became really apologetic.
On that note, China has a problem of running you over 2 times to make sure you're dead if the 1st time didn't kill you. This is because it's cheaper to compensate the family of a dead person than to compensate a seriously injured person. Meanwhile in Japan, truck-kun only needs to hit you 1 time to send you to isekai.
