The Stripe-Coated Perch Mother

The stripe-coated perch mother is a funny demon cultivator. She was initially a perch in the East Sea and had been there for a long time. She heard that eating the flesh of the Tang Monk would make her immortal, so she had a plan and went to great lengths to find out that the Tang Monk and his disciples would soon arrive at the Tongtian River, so she traveled from the distant East Sea to the Tongtian River. This kind of persistence is indeed admirable.

Upon arriving at the Tongtian River, she was just a perch in the East Sea with little magical power, unable to fight against the Great King of Numinous Power. So she managed to sneak into the Great King's palace.

Finally, she waited for the Tang Monk to come and found that the Great King of Numinous Power was troubled about how to catch the Tang Monk. So, she took the initiative to offer a plan.

This also led to the classic scene in the play: the Tang Monk crossing the Tongtian River was slipped into the underwater palace. In fact, the mastermind behind all this is the stripe-coated perch mother! She knew that she was not very powerful, so she offered a plan to the Great King of Numinous Power on the condition that he would treat her as a sister! After that, they would eat the flesh of the Tang Monk and live forever together!

However, after that, the Monkey King attacked the palace, and because of her weak magic, she died within a few moves.
