|Summary = Wu Kong learns that Mei Hou Wang was once a good fiend, but after he was betrayed and sealed away, he became obsessed with revenge. Hoping to put an end to his spite, the prince and his friends head out to face down the enraged fiend.
|Dialogue =
{{ST|Zhu Bajie}} Well, we kicked some butt and made our way to the Jin Gu Er, but I'm not really sure how to handle this "seal" business.
{{ST|Sha Wujing}} Wait. You mean you came all this way without a method to actually complete the most important part of your plan? Oh, but you are a foolish old warhorse!
{{ST|Sha Wujing}} Yes, well, step aside. If I follow the sealing procedure in reverse, I should be able to undo it easily enough.
{{ST|Zhu Bajie}} At this rate, he's gonna learn enough about Qilin relics to become a sealer himself.
{{ST|Sha Wujing}} Apologies for the delay. I believe I have largely removed the seal. Now, let's see what happens, shall we?
{{ST|Sha Wujing}} Aaaand here come the fiends, as expected. Mei Hou Wang should also awaken before long.
{{ST|Zhu Bajie}} Right then. Let's handle the fiend situation before he does, and make sure his power is nice and spent.
{{ST|Wu Kong}} Master!
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} Yes? What is it?
{{ST|Wu Kong}} Why does Mei Hou Wang hate mortals so much?
{{ST|Wu Kong}} It's not just because he's a fiend, is it? He made it sound like there's something more to it.
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} ...Very well. I suppose you deserve to know after everything that has occurred.
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} Mei Hou Wang was originally a gentle fiend that did not attack people.
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} There were few among the ancient Qilin who did not interact with him to at least some extent.
{{ST|Wu Kong}} So he started out good!
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} His is an exceedingly uncommon case— one might even call him a mutant of sorts.
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} Unfortunately, he had an ability to produce fiends—whether he wanted to or not. And slowly but surely, those fiends began to claim lives.
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} Gradually, even those Qilin who he knew came to shun and revile him.
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} Finally, faced with the choice of people meeting their extinction or sealing away Mei Hou Wang, there were none left who cared enough to protect him.
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} He was forsaken by his companions and sealed alone inside the Jin Gu Er.
{{ST|Wu Kong}} Sealed alone...
{{ST|???}} Just for once, I...
{{ST|Wu Kong}} Oh.
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} What is it, Wu Kong?
{{ST|Wu Kong}} I KNEW I recognized him from somewhere.
{{ST|Wu Kong}} When I was fooling around with the Jin Gu Er that one time and it ended up taking me over, I heard his voice.
{{ST|Wu Kong}} All he wanted was a chance to be with someone again.
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} Mei Hou Wang said that...?
{{ST|Wu Kong}} Master, I want to be that person!
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} Absurdities piled up into the sky! A fiend will not coexist with a person. It simply is not done.
{{ST|Wu Kong}} Yeah, well, humans aren't supposed to become sealers, but you didn't let anyone tell you what to do when it came to me!
{{ST|Wu Kong}} I became a sealer because you BELIEVED that I could!
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} !
{{ST|Wu Kong}} And yeah, it was hard, but I stuck with it because you had faith in me.
{{ST|Wu Kong}} I wanna do the same for Mei Hou Wang!
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} ...Heh. And to think you were a mere child so recently...
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} When did you grow enough to have thoughts so worthy of praise?
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} Well, if this is the path you will walk, there may be ONE way to deal with Mei Hou Wang without sealing...
{{ST|Wu Kong}} Tell me!
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} However, it is terribly dangerous, and I cannot guarantee your safety.
{{ST|Wu Kong}} I'm willing to risk it for a friend.
{{ST|Zhu Bajie}} Well, hell. Of COURSE this wouldn't go according to plan—these fiends are supposed to STOP comin' at some point!
{{ST|Sha Wujing}} I place the blame at the feet of the fool who concocted this cockamamie plot. Who was that again, hmmMMM?
{{ST|Zhu Bajie}} Hey! You went along with it!
{{ST|The Prince}} Why are there so many fiends here?! I thought the Jin Gu Er was sealed!
{{ST|Zhu Bajie}} Yeaaah, sorry about that. We sorta... popped the seal back open.
{{ST|Cleo}} Without consulting Xuan Zang?! Are you MAD?!
{{ST|Mei Hou Wang}} Weeeelll... It appears someone missed me more than they let on.
{{ST|Zhu Bajie}} Oh, I didn't miss you at all, pal. But I know someone who did, and he wants to talk.
{{ST|Mei Hou Wang}} Talk? TALK?! Oh, but you people have always been so exceedingly worthless!
{{ST|Mei Hou Wang}} The Qilin of old were the same— always believing we could all be just ever such great friends!
{{ST|Mei Hou Wang}} But when fiends ravaged their city, their true colors were revealed. Fear ruled the day, and they picked me up and sealed me away.
{{ST|Mei Hou Wang}} It was then that I swore to one day give them the destruction they so feared!
{{ST|Wu Kong}} Mei Hou Wang!
{{ST|Mei Hou Wang}} Good, Wu Kong! GOOD! Now you, too, can see the power of the dark that has been burning inside me for so long!
{{ST|Wu Kong}} That's not going to happen.
{{ST|Wu Kong}} Sha Wujing, give me the Jin Gu Er!
{{ST|Sha Wujing}} Meee? I don't have it! Why, it must be... Oh, very well. Here.
{{ST|Mei Hou Wang}} Are you planning to seal me inside that thing once again? You, a boy who is barely a sealer?!
{{ST|Wu Kong}} No...I'm gonna do THIS!
{{ST|Luca}} The hell?! Don't WEAR the thing!
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} This is the proof of Wu Kong's resolve. It is the way he has chosen for himself— the way of belief in Mei Hou Wang.
{{ST|Elisanne}} I do not understand.
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} With the Jin Gu Er as an intermediary, he will attempt to use the power of his own heart to seal Mei Hou Wang.
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} If he succeeds, Mei Hou Wang will no longer be bound to the Jin Gu Er.
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} However, this is a dangerous gamble. If it fails, his life will be forfeit.
{{ST|Cleo}} How can you permit him to do something so dangerous?!
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} Because I've come to believe in him, and in what he believes in.
{{ST|Mei Hou Wang}} What do you think you're doing, boy?!
{{ST|Wu Kong}} I told you we were gonna be travel buddies, remember?
{{ST|Wu Kong}} And if you come with me, I'll show you everything the world has to offer!
{{ST|Mei Hou Wang}} DON'T LIE TO ME!
{{ST|Mei Hou Wang}} A HUMAN LIKE YOU COULD NEVER UNDERSTAND ONE SUCH AS ME!
{{ST|Wu Kong}} !
{{ST|The Prince}} Not this time.
{{ST|Wu Kong}} Thanks!
{{ST|Radiant Xuan Zang}} He is still too powerful to be sealed.
{{ST|The Prince}} Then this is where we come in—we'll fight him and weaken him until he sees the sense in Wu Kong's plan.
{{ST|Wu Kong}} Then let's save him from the darkness!
{{ST|The Prince}} On my mark, everyone! Come on!
