Chapter 70

Inside the Heavenly Court.

Marshal Tianpeng scanned the dense crowd of heavenly soldiers before him, as well as some of the generals in front of the heavenly soldiers.

For example, the Third Prince Nezha, the Giant Spirit God, and the Four Heavenly Kings under the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King.

If it were the past, Marshal Tianpeng would naturally be full of joy, and his conviction to capture Sun Wukong would be great.

But ever since knowing his destiny and the future he might encounter, Marshal Tianpeng no longer had such thoughts.

Now, the most important thing for him is to see Sun Wukong.

Capturing Sun Wukong is not what Marshal Tianpeng truly wants to do.

However, regarding this expedition to Mount Huaguo to capture Sun Wukong, Marshal Tianpeng also believed there was little hope.

Marshal Tianpeng had felt Sun Wukong's strength before.

As a powerhouse who is also a Taiyi Golden Immortal, he had to admit that Sun Wukong's strength was stronger than his own.

As for Nezha, or even the Giant Spirit God and the others, Marshal Tianpeng curled his lip; only Nezha could fight him a little.

As for the other immortal generals, Marshal Tianpeng held them in contempt.

The gap in strength between the two sides was like heaven and earth.

"Everyone, the Jade Emperor has ordered us to attack Mount Huaguo and capture the demon Sun Wukong. I think everyone understands. So now, we prepare to head to Mount Huaguo. Set off!"

Marshal Tianpeng ordered the heavenly soldiers and generals.

"Yes, Marshal." The heavenly soldiers said in unison.

Marshal Tianpeng's status in the Heavenly Court is not inferior to the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King.

As for the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King at this time, he could only be angry and hateful alone in his mansion.

The news of him being stripped naked and exposed before those immortals and gods had long spread throughout the Heavenly Court, and many people were secretly discussing Li Jing.

At this time, it could be said that whenever Li Jing walked along the roadside in the Heavenly Court and found an immortal, he felt as if someone was discussing him, which made him feel ashamed while also feeling incomparably angry.

He wished he could replace Marshal Tianpeng and become one of those capturing Sun Wukong.

But because the Jade Emperor had already given the order for Tianpeng to lead the heavenly soldiers to attack, Li Jing could do nothing. He did not want to commit suicide by being naked again.

This could only lead Li Jing to constantly smash various things in his mansion.

And the immortals and gods in the mansion also discovered that the lord in their eyes had become increasingly irritable, completely capricious.

On the other side, seeing the response of the heavenly soldiers.

Marshal Tianpeng did not say anything more, waved his hand, and had these heavenly soldiers follow him toward Mount Huaguo.

Marshal Tianpeng had long since determined where Mount Huaguo was.

Mount Huaguo, in the sky.

The sky, which was originally filled with white clouds, was suddenly covered by colorful light, as if the white clouds were being torn apart.

One by one, towering figures appeared above the white clouds at this moment, dense and numerous.

These were the heavenly soldiers and generals led by Marshal Tianpeng.

Setting off from the Heavenly Court, they descended upon Mount Huaguo in a very short time.

However, because of the time wasted in the Heavenly Court, some time had already passed in the mortal world.

And the descent of the heavenly soldiers and generals also made the demons of Mount Huaguo nervous.

Most of the demons also knew the purpose of these Heavenly Court powerhouses descending on Mount Huaguo.

After all, Sun Wukong had escaped from Mount Huaguo and was even rebellious enough to think he could sit on equal footing with the Jade Emperor, calling himself the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

This encirclement by the Heavenly Court was the most normal thing.

Many demons looked on cautiously, fearing that the Heavenly Court's expedition would affect them.

"Sun Wukong, I am Marshal Tianpeng, specially ordered by the Jade Emperor to capture you. If you are sensible, come out quickly and surrender." Marshal Tianpeng's voice echoed on Mount Huaguo.

The heavenly soldiers and generals behind him remained silent, but the aura they emitted became increasingly terrifying.

They understood that a fierce battle was about to unfold.

A moment later.

Marshal Tianpeng frowned as he looked at the unresponsive Mount Huaguo. Although Marshal Tianpeng's goal was not to capture Sun Wukong, it was unlike him for Sun Wukong not to come out under these circumstances.

Did the Heavenly Court's encirclement turn Sun Wukong into a coward?

Could it be that he had misjudged Sun Wukong?

Was the so-called destiny that Sun Wukong told him about earlier just nonsense, just a joke?

"Sun Wukong, if you don't come out again, don't blame me for attacking Mount Huaguo." Marshal Tianpeng continued.

If they attack Mount Huaguo, their target would not just be Sun Wukong; other demons and the monkeys would also be affected.

As for whether innocent lives would be harmed.

For those in the Heavenly Court, there is no such concept.

Demons are meant to be killed by everyone.

This is the status of demons in the hearts of mortals and even the immortals of the Heavenly Court in the Journey to the West era.

What Marshal Tianpeng did not expect was that even though he gave Sun Wukong the final time to come out, the other party still did not appear.
