"Ling Ming, like I said, just ignore all these messy nuisances. With me around, I can absolutely protect you and that bearded monk. When the time comes, I'll send you both back," said Sun Wukong to the little monkey the morning after the meeting had ended. They left the Netherworld Palace and sped on their way until they stopped by a small creek to rest when the sun was three poles high in the sky. It was the little monkey who had initiated this journey. In order to add more odds in favor of the Netherworld World, the little monkey decided to seek out some helpers with Sun Wukong.
