Chapter 146

Wanting to change destiny and improve one's own strength is the most critical part.

Not long after.

Sun Wukong and Tianpeng carefully walked out of the Tushita Palace again; the elixirs inside had been looted clean, and even the furnace Taishang Laojun used to refine elixirs had been put away by Sun Wukong.

Fortunately, Taishang Laojun carried some magic treasures with him.

Otherwise, if he were to return to the Tushita Palace, he would probably vomit blood.

"Sun Wukong, shouldn't we retreat now?" Tianpeng asked while walking.

"Don't be in a hurry; let's wander around nearby to see if we can encounter any other good things," Sun Wukong said hurriedly.

Because he knew time was tight, Sun Wukong also wanted to cherish every minute and every second.

In this way, he could directly take the things to the Mount Huaguo Grocery Store and exchange them for some items from the senior to improve his strength.

Just like that, Sun Wukong and Tianpeng were practically digging three feet into the ground.

As long as something was slightly precious, it would be taken away by them.

Haotian, watching the show from deep within the Heavenly Court, couldn't help but twitch his mouth; Sun Wukong and Tianpeng were simply like reincarnated robbers.

Or rather, even robbers in the mortal world wouldn't do this.

Until Sun Wukong and Tianpeng encountered an acquaintance, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li Jing.

"Sun Wukong, Tianpeng," Li Jing said, frowning as he looked at the two who appeared before him.

Although he was very angry at Sun Wukong, without the Emperor's order, Li Jing could not seek revenge on Sun Wukong.

Of course, even so, the anger in Li Jing's heart had not diminished in the slightest.

Now seeing his enemy Sun Wukong appear, it was as if he were about to explode.

But Li Jing still held back.

"Oh, so it is the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King," Tianpeng's expression changed slightly, but he still greeted him extremely calmly.

Li Jing's strength was only at the Taiyi Jinxian stage, the same as his own, so Tianpeng did not have the slightest fear.

"Sun Wukong, why aren't you guarding the Flat Peach Garden properly? Why are you here? The Heavenly Court has many forbidden areas, not to mention many restricted zones," Li Jing said loudly. "And you, Marshal Tianpeng, a dignified Heavenly Court General in charge of tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers, why are you with Sun Wukong?"

"Are you done with your nonsense?" Sun Wukong picked his ear, not caring.

"Hmm, Sun Wukong, what do you mean by that?" Li Jing's expression turned cold.

Was Sun Wukong's indifferent expression looking down on him?

Needless to say, Sun Wukong really was looking down on Li Jing.

Not to mention that Sun Wukong, who was originally only a Taiyi Jinxian, was like this, now that he had already become a Daluo Jinxian, it was even more so.

"It means nothing. Since the nonsense is finished, then..." Sun Wukong's figure suddenly disappeared from where he stood.

"Sun Wukong, what are you doing?" Li Jing's expression changed as he saw this. "Could it be that you want to betray the Heavenly Court again?"

"Boom..."

A golden Ruyi Jingu Bang fell from the sky.

Seeing this, Li Jing directly activated the pagoda in his hand; the pagoda grew against the wind and blocked the front of the Jingu Bang.

Watching this scene, Li Jing heaved a sigh of relief.

Li Jing still had great confidence in his own pagoda.

He did not believe that the monkey demon before him could be his opponent.

Most demons in the mortal world were too weak and could not be compared to the ancient era.

But a scene that shocked Li Jing soon occurred.

Clang...

As a deafening sound rang out.

The pagoda above Li Jing was directly knocked flying, and before he could react, the Ruyi Jingu Bang landed squarely on Li Jing's head.

"Bang..."

"You, you..." Li Jing said tremblingly, his eyes rolling back, and with a thud, he fell straight to the ground.

Just like the previous scene, Li Jing was knocked out in one blow.

"Great Sage, you are truly amazing," Tianpeng gave a thumbs up.

"That goes without saying; this Li Jing is always nagging, isn't it annoying?" Sun Wukong said with a smile. "The treasures on his body are not bad; take them."

A moment later.

Li Jing's body was stripped bare once again.

This time, Sun Wukong simply left him here.

"Tsk tsk tsk..." Tianpeng shook his head.

Tianpeng knew what kind of person Li Jing was; he was somewhat rigid and held the pride of being an immortal in his heart.

But this time, this Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King would probably suffer another blow.

Clearly not being ambushed, yet he was still knocked unconscious by a single club.

"Let's go, Bajie, time is running out," Sun Wukong called out.

Not long after.

Sun Wukong and Tianpeng left the Heavenly Court and headed toward Mount Huaguo.

Soon, the Emperor discovered that Sun Wukong's destruction of the Flat Peach Assembly and the Flat Peach Garden had been exposed, along with the fact that Marshal Tianpeng had joined forces with the other party to betray the Heavenly Court.

This was a heinous crime.

Lingxiao Treasure Hall.

The atmosphere felt very oppressive; many immortals understood what had happened.

Sun Wukong had betrayed the Heavenly Court once again, and this time Tianpeng had followed that monkey demon.

If this matter were publicized, it would simply be a joke to the Heavenly Court.

Marshal Tianpeng's status in the Heavenly Court was not simple; he was a subordinate of Emperor Ziwei among the Six Royals.

"My dear ministers, I believe you all know the reason for gathering you today. This Flat Peach Assembly has been postponed, and the reason for the postponement is precisely because of the monkey demon Sun Wukong," the Emperor said, scanning the immortals below. "Because Sun Wukong destroyed this Flat Peach Assembly."

"And with Sun Wukong is Marshal Tianpeng, who has also betrayed the Heavenly Court."

"What?"

If Sun Wukong's betrayal was something the immortals of the Heavenly Court had speculated about, then Marshal Tianpeng's betrayal left them astonished.

Marshal Tianpeng's position in the Heavenly Court was not small either.

How could an ordinary immortal command tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers?

Why would such a Heavenly Court immortal betray the Heavenly Court?

They couldn't figure it out.

But what the Emperor said must be true; it could not be false.

"Therefore, this time we must capture Sun Wukong and execute the monkey demon to serve as a warning to others," the Emperor said in a deep voice. "Which minister is willing to go and capture the monkey demon?"

"Your subject Li Jing is willing to lead the troops," Li Jing stepped forward and said respectfully.

"Li Jing," the Emperor's eyes had a gleam. "This time you were knocked unconscious by Sun Wukong again; can I trust your strength?"

Li Jing being knocked unconscious and stripped bare was a feat that had spread through the Heavenly Court once again.

"I..." Li Jing opened his mouth; how could he say it was an ambush this time?

"Step down," the Emperor said indifferently.

"Yes..." Li Jing returned to his position helplessly.

Immediately after, the Emperor's gaze fell upon an old man wearing golden robes.

"Emperor Zhenwu."

Lingxiao Treasure Hall.

The old man in golden robes heard this, walked out with a calm expression, and bowed.

"Your subject is here."

Emperor Zhenwu, also known as the Nine Heavens Demon-Quelling Patriarch, did not know how many demons had died by his hands.

In the Heavenly Court, his strength was second to none, far more powerful than Li Jing.

He also had no relationship with the Jie Sect or the Chan Sect.

Under normal circumstances, the Emperor rarely ordered Emperor Zhenwu, but on the other hand, the Emperor also understood that relying solely on Li Jing would not be enough.

Sun Wukong's strength was not as simple as imagined.

This was the reason he would send Emperor Zhenwu.

Emperor Zhenwu possessed the strength of a Great Perfection Golden Immortal. ===== CHAPTER 148 =====
