What’s there to fear? You’re the Great Sage Equal to Heaven—this entire Peach Garden is under your charge. Eating one peach is nothing! Just check if they’re ripe—that’s part of your duty!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other voice countered: “You are the Great Sage Equal to Heaven! Appointed by the Jade Emperor himself, equal in stature to heaven! How could you commit such a petty, thieving act as stealing from your own post? If this got out, where would you save face? Wouldn’t all the immortals of the Three Realms laugh themselves to death at you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Wukong’s monkey face twisted unpredictably—sometimes baring his teeth, sometimes frowning tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a monkey, by nature fond of peaches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was also a monkey who cared deeply for his reputation, valuing the title “Great Sage Equal to Heaven” above all else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stealing peaches he was meant to guard?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That would be disgraceful, a stain on his Great Sage Equal to Heaven title.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old Sun is the Great Sage Equal to Heaven! How could I sink to such thieving ways!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this, Sun Wukong straightened his chest as if making a monumental decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned away, forcing himself not to look at the tempting peaches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph! Just a few peaches? When Old Sun earns his merit, the Jade Emperor himself will deliver the finest peaches to my residence!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this thought, his heart instantly grew lighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He resolved: not only would he not steal, he would manage the Peach Garden flawlessly, leaving no room for even the slightest criticism.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without delay, Sun Wukong bellowed, summoning the Land God and all the laborers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You all listen well!” Sun Wukong stood with arms akimbo, commanding in tone, “From today on, new rules govern this Peach Garden!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Land God and laborers exchanged glances, unsure what new scheme this newly appointed Great Sage had in mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“First!” Sun Wukong raised one finger, “You will recount every peach tree in the garden. How many are three-thousand-year trees? How many six-thousand-year? How many nine-thousand-year? How many peaches each bears—record it all precisely in the ledger, not a single error allowed!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Second, every matter, big or small, must be reported to me first and receive my approval before action is taken! Understood?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes! We obey!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Land God and laborers dared not object; they hurried off to carry out his orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the days that followed, the entire Peach Garden was managed with perfect order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Wukong himself did not idle—he wandered daily through the garden, darting east to check if laborers were slacking, then west to inspect the Land God’s ledgers; any minor oversight earned him a scolding without mercy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He truly treated the task of guarding the garden as a grand undertaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lingxiao Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Jade Emperor listened as his celestial officials reported daily affairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his mind was elsewhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He waited for news from the Peach Garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his plan, the monkey was unruly and fond of peaches; placing him in charge of the Peach Garden would inevitably lead him to steal within three days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he would send inspectors to catch the monkey red-handed and punish him with full justification.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet days had passed, and still no sign of trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a celestial official dispatched to monitor the Peach Garden hurried in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your Majesty, news from the Peach Garden!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Jade Emperor perked up, leaning forward slightly, asking: “Well? Did the demon monkey steal the peaches?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already decided: as soon as confirmation came, he would order Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, to arrest him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the official’s reply left him deeply disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your Majesty, the demon monkey has not stolen a single peach. Instead, he has managed the Peach Garden better than ever before.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?” The Jade Emperor froze, certain he had misheard. “Say that again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The official recounted, in full detail, Sun Wukong’s actions in the Peach Garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...He ordered the Land God and laborers to register every peach tree, enforce round-the-clock patrols, and maintain strict vigilance. He himself inspects daily, diligent and unwavering, showing no slack.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing the report, the Jade Emperor’s expression remained unchanged, but his heart sank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why was this monkey not following the script?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could he resist the temptation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Unthinkable!” the Jade Emperor cursed inwardly. “This rascally monkey actually resisted the trap!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He waved his hand, dismissing the official, then turned to his attendant, the Curtain-Rolling General: “Go, summon Taibai Jinxing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Taibai Jinxing arrived before the throne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your servant bows before Your Majesty.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Longgeng, rise,” the Jade Emperor said, gesturing for him to stand, then dismissed his attendants and said to Taibai Jinxing: “Longgeng, your plan failed—the monkey did not take the bait. He is now diligently fulfilling his duties in the Peach Garden.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taibai Jinxing showed surprise—he had not expected Sun Wukong to resist the lure of the entire garden of peaches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stroked his beard, thought briefly, then smiled and said to the Jade Emperor: “Your Majesty, though he did not steal, this proves the monkey values his title ‘Great Sage Equal to Heaven’ above all else.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Therefore, to make him commit a grave offense, we must exploit his weakness,” Taibai Jinxing said calmly. “His vanity is his weakness. We shall design a trap targeting his pride, luring him to walk into it willingly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Jade Emperor’s interest stirred: “Oh? What is your clever plan, Longgeng?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1081,"2026-06-21T05:42:07.836Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","e84d5cac85e186fad39c201c73f472500a4f8b8bc30f6e4c28d92d8d707f6d4f","i-m-invincible-and-you-tell-me-this-is-journey-t-chapter-87","i-m-invincible-and-you-tell-me-this-is-journey-t-chapter-85",470,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-invincible-and-you-tell-me-this-is-journey-t-cover.jpg"]
