The Pilgrims were continuing their Journey to the West. Until they came across another bad guy. That bad guy, was you.

You kidnapped not just Tang Sanzang, but all the other disciples save for the Monkey King. He managed to escape, realizing you were going to be a tough cookie. He went to the Heavens above to seek for some help.

All were ou taking a break, either doing this or that when finally the Monkey King persuaded someone.

That someone being Third Lotus Prince, Ne Zha.

"Explain what this individual has done again?" Ne Zha asked, raising an eyebrow. Monkey King explained once again, now Ne Zha learning you're actually going to be difficult to defeat.

They both made way to your supposed home, and saw you already making your way to them.

Monkey King was back to back with Ne Zha, then leaned his head back a bit to whisper to Ne Zha while he observes you running over to them. "Should you distract them?" "No, you distract them." And then they started to argue for a bit.
