Chapter 90

Su Chen pointed to the seven frozen immortal maidens.

"This Pantao Assembly, they released the news, deliberately invited all the gods of the Three Realms, but didn't invite you. And let these immortal maidens seemingly inadvertently reveal the news to you, Monkey Brother; what are they plotting?"

Su Chen stared at Sun Wukong and said: "They just want to anger you, make you lose your reason, and do things that cannot be undone, such as destroying the Pantao Garden and causing trouble at the Pantao Assembly!"

"Once you do this, the crime will be confirmed. By then, you will be a sinner who destroyed the Heavenly Court's treasure, crashed the Pantao Assembly, and despised the heavenly rules. They will have a reason to act against you and let you walk the path they want you to walk!"

"At that time, the entire Three Realms will think you are a demon monkey who deserves the crime. And they will be maintaining the order of heaven and earth."

Su Chen's words made the furious Sun Wukong gradually calm down.

Sun Wukong slowly put down the Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hand, and the red color in his eyes gradually faded.

He understood that from beginning to end, he was in the Heavenly Court's calculations.

He thought he had won the honor of Saint Qitian by his ability.

In fact, that was just bait.

He thought he was managing the peach garden dutifully and could prove his value.

But this was also a link in the planning of these people in the Heavenly Court.

All his reactions were within the other party's expectations.

A deep sense of powerlessness and humiliation surged into Sun Wukong's heart.

He didn't know why these people in the Heavenly Court wanted to treat him like this.

"Then what should I do?" Sun Wukong's voice was somewhat hoarse.

He looked at Su Chen, his eyes full of confusion.

Now the only one he could trust was his brother Su Chen.

Su Chen looked at his appearance, and his heart was also full of sadness.

He patted Sun Wukong on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Monkey Brother, they want you to become a chess piece, but why should we let them manipulate us? Let's not play with them anymore!"

"Not play with them anymore?"

"Yes!" A flash of determination crossed Su Chen's eyes; before this seclusion, he had already decided to help Sun Wukong escape the fate of being pressed under the Five Fingers Mountain.

Whatever Sage planning, the general trend cannot be reversed, he, Su Chen, insists on trying!

"Since this Heavenly Court is unkind and cannot accommodate our brothers, then we won't serve them!" Su Chen said, "Let's go back to Mount Huaguo!"

"Just leave like this?" Sun Wukong was somewhat unwilling, "Wouldn't that be too cheap for them?"

Su Chen comforted Sun Wukong: "Monkey Brother, we cannot take the initiative to act, otherwise we will lose righteousness."

"We must return to the lower realm as soon as possible, make arrangements in advance, and let the whole world know that it is the Heavenly Court that is unfair to you and forced away the Saint Qitian conferred by the Jade Emperor!"

"We will go back to the Saint Mansion now, hang the official seal of Saint Qitian high in the main hall. Then leave a resignation letter, and then, while they are all holding the Pantao Assembly in Yaochi, we will take the opportunity to slip out of the South Heavenly Gate!"

"Once we reach the lower realm, we will mobilize the demon kings of the various caves of Mount Huaguo to publicize the unfair treatment you encountered in the Heavenly Court; only in this way can we occupy righteousness in advance and make the Heavenly Court lose face in the Three Realms."

Sun Wukong's eyes grew brighter the more he listened.

Yes! This method is good!

This is much more satisfying than fighting and killing!

"Good, good idea!" Sun Wukong slapped his thigh, and the stagnant energy in his heart dissipated by more than half instantly, "Brother, listen to you. I won't eat this broken peach anymore. Let's go, resign and return to Mount Huaguo!"

He walked to those immortal maidens and lifted their immobilization spell.

The immortal maidens regained their freedom, trembling with fright, thinking Sun Wukong was going to poison them.

Sun Wukong just snorted coldly, carried the Ruyi Jingu Bang, and said proudly: "Go back and tell your master, Wang Mu. Just say that for her so-called Pantao Assembly, I am not interested in going!"

"And, this broken garden, I won't serve it either!"

After speaking, he ignored the reaction of those immortal maidens, called Su Chen, laughed loudly, turned into two streams of light, and flew out of the Pantao Garden.

Saint Qitian Mansion.

When Su Chen and Sun Wukong flew into the front hall, the two remaining immortal officials Zhang De and Li Ming were sitting uneasily and looking sad.

Seeing the two return, they hurriedly greeted them.

"Great Saint, Lord Chief Assistant, you have finally returned!" Zhang De and Li Ming hurriedly stepped forward to greet them.

Su Chen walked directly to the desk in the center of the main hall and said: "Where are the pen and ink?"

Li Ming dared not neglect, hurriedly took the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone from the shelf on the side.

"Monkey Brother, you are the Saint Qitian; this resignation letter should be written by you." Su Chen spread a piece of snow-white cloud brocade on the desk and said to Sun Wukong.

"Good!"

Sun Wukong did not decline; he walked to the desk, picked up the large wolf-hair brush, and dipped it full of ink in the inkstone.

He thought about it, thinking about how to write it well.

After pondering for a moment, his wrist shook, the pen moved like a dragon and a snake, and a line of wild and unrestrained large characters appeared on the cloud brocade:

"The Heavenly Court is unfair, I won't serve it anymore!"

After writing, Sun Wukong threw down the large brush and took out the large seal representing the identity of "Saint Qitian."

He looked at this Saint Qitian seal that once made him proud, and a complex expression appeared on his face.

Then he used his hair to change into a thin rope and hung the official seal on the beam of the main hall.

Zhang De and Li Ming watched from the side, terrified, their legs soft.

Is the Great Saint going to hang the seal and resign?

How is this different from rebellion?

"Great Saint, Lord Chief Assistant, think twice!" Zhang De advised with a crying voice, "This move must not be done! If the Jade Emperor finds out, it will be a monstrous crime!"

"Crime? What crime?" Sun Wukong sneered, "I am just tired of being an official and won't do it myself! Is there any official in the world who forces people to buy and sell?"

Su Chen also said to the two immortal officials: "You two don't need to panic. This matter has nothing to do with you. After we leave, if anyone comes to ask, you just tell them the whole story."

Zhang De and Li Ming were sweating coldly, but seeing the determined appearance of Su Chen and Sun Wukong, they knew that persuasion was useless, so they could only nod repeatedly.

"Alright, Brother, let's go!"

Sun Wukong couldn't wait.

"Go!"

The two did not stop, turned into two streams of light, and rushed out of the Saint Mansion.

Just when the two were rushing to the South Heavenly Gate.

At this moment, the Heavenly Court was indeed as Su Chen expected, mixed with fish and dragons, and very lively.

Countless immortals and gods, driving auspicious clouds and riding mounts, gathered from all directions toward the direction of Yaochi.

The defense force of the entire Heavenly Court was almost concentrated near Yaochi to ensure the safety of the Pantao Assembly.

In other places, especially the Four Heavenly Gates that were heavily guarded on weekdays, they were much more relaxed.

Su Chen and Sun Wukong avoided the crowd and arrived at the South Heavenly Gate unimpeded all the way.
