The Adventures of Wu Kong vol. 9: Impostor's Throne

San Zang and his disciples journey to the West under constant threat of attack from monsters and demons, as well as a seemingly endless string of tests invented for them by the very deities who set them on their adventure. Amid the hardship, it is easy to forget the many ways in which the four friends have helped numerous people along the way. Now, a vengeful ghost comes forth to ask the priest and his traveling companions for their help in righting a terrible injustice that cost him his life and his kingdom three years earlier. While reading Buddhist scriptures during this first night in the temple, San Zang falls asleep, and in his dream he is approached by a ghost. The ghost was once the King of WuJi, a kingdom that suffered through a period of terrible drought before being rescued by a Taoist hermit named QuanZhen. QuanZhen then overthrew the kingdom by killing the king and taking his appearance, his wife, and his throne. The ghost asks the priest to avenge his death by recovering his kingdom, but the priest is worried that no one will believe the story.
