769: Chapter 769: Sun Wukong: Li Jing, Are You a Eunuch?

(2nd Update)

Heavenly Court, South Heavenly Gate!

“Great Sage, we greet you!” Several Heavenly Soldiers guarding the entrance of the South Heavenly Gate watched as the monkey flew straight towards them and saluted him.

Sun Wukong’s expression remained calm, he glanced at these Heavenly Soldiers, and without a word, walked directly into the South Heavenly Gate.

“What’s with the Great Sage today?”

Watching Sun Wukong enter the South Heavenly Gate, these Heavenly Soldiers naturally dared not stop him, but they turned to look at his receding figure, their expressions filled with a hint of astonishment.

“Not too sure!” Another Heavenly Soldier, also wearing a shocked expression, shook his head slightly as he spoke.

Usually, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven seemed approachable.

If they saluted him, he would normally respond in some small way.

But today, there was not even a slight response.

“Forget it, never mind.

Perhaps the Great Sage is just in a bad mood today.

Let’s not worry too much about it!” After quietly discussing amongst themselves for a few moments, one of the Heavenly Soldiers shook his head and spoke.

If the Great Sage Sun was willing to respond, it was him giving face to them.

Given Great Sage Sun’s status, if he chose not to respond, there was nothing they could say.

Their job was simply to guard the South Heavenly Gate well.

This statement made the other Heavenly Soldiers shiver internally, and they nodded to each other in agreement.

Indeed, if the Great Sage was in a bad mood, it was best not to approach him.

Otherwise, if they upset the Great Sage, they would not get off easily.

Hadn’t the Star Monarch of Warring States been killed by the Great Sage just like that before?

…

Above in the Lingxiao Hall, the Great Jade Emperor was seated on his throne.

The various Immortal Gods at his side began to report their duties one by one.

The Jade Emperor also articulated his decisions on these matters, showing a high level of efficiency.

“Jade Emperor Old Man…”

However, at this moment, suddenly, a shout came from outside the Lingxiao Hall.

Hearing this voice, Li Jing, the upright Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li at his side, slightly furrowed his brow.

For the conventionally minded Li Jing, what he could least tolerate was Sun Wukong’s blatant lack of decorum.

However, Sun Wukong’s capabilities left little room for criticism.

Thus, despite feeling annoyed, Li Jing kept his mouth shut and said nothing.

“Rascal Monkey, aren’t you supposed to be escorting the Tang Monk to the Western Heaven to seek scriptures?

What brings you to Lingxiao Hall?” Seeing the way Sun Wukong just barged in, the Great Jade Emperor, evidently used to it, did not look angry but instead addressed him directly.

“Jade Emperor Old Man, I, Old Sun, came here today because I need your help with something!” After hop-skipping into the Lingxiao Hall, Sun Wukong spoke up to the Jade Emperor.

“Oh?

What is it?” the Jade Emperor asked.

“I, Old Sun, think that the Vermilion Pen in your hand looks quite nice.

Can I borrow it to play around with?” Grinning cheekily, Sun Wukong spoke to the Jade Emperor.

“Rascal Monkey!”

As Sun Wukong finished speaking, Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, could no longer hold back and scolded Sun Wukong: “The Jade Emperor’s Vermilion Pen, managing myriad affairs, how could it be casually lent to you for playing?

Stop causing trouble and leave at once!”

“You are such a killjoy, Heavenly King!”

Reacting to Li Jing’s scolding, Sun Wukong turned his head and said in annoyance, “There’s an old saying, ‘the emperor is less anxious than the eunuch.’ The Jade Emperor himself hasn’t said a word yet, and you just can’t resist jumping out?

Quick, tell me, hehehe, have you turned into an eunuch?”

Pfft…

Sun Wukong’s words made many deities in the Lingxiao Hall chuckle uncontrollably, bursting into laughter.

This monkey, when did he start talking so poisonously?

“You!” Sun Wukong’s words, ridiculing him in front of everyone in the Lingxiao Hall, made the Heavenly King so angry his nose almost went crooked.

“Monkey, stop talking!” Nezha, unable to hold back, cried out to Sun Wukong.

After all, the Heavenly King, Li Jing, was his father, right?

Being ridiculed by Sun Wukong like this, it was unthinkable not to speak up for him.

“Nezha?

It’s not that I’m making it difficult for your father; he’s the one making it difficult for me.

I, Old Sun, am speaking to the Jade Emperor, and he interrupts.

Isn’t he just asking for me to scold him?”

Looking at Nezha, Sun Wukong showed no intention of giving him face, speaking bluntly.

“This…”

Alright, though Sun Wukong was not giving him face and his words were harsh, one couldn’t deny that he had a point.

“Enough!”

In the end, it was Li Jing who spoke up in order to defend his dignity, and now the Jade Emperor intervened, silencing everyone.

Suddenly, the Jade Emperor’s gaze fell upon Sun Wukong and he said, “Rascal Monkey, tell me, specifically coming to the Lingxiao Hall to borrow my Vermilion Pen, have you encountered some kind of difficulty?”

“There’s no difficulty.

I, Old Sun, just want to have some fun.

Is that not allowed?” Stretching out his monkey paw, he dug at his ear, and Sun Wukong spoke in an offhand manner.

“Since it’s for play, then I cannot lend it to you!” Seeing Sun Wukong’s attitude, the corners of the Great Jade Emperor’s mouth also twitched slightly, and he shook his head as he refused.

Whiz!

However, following the Jade Emperor’s refusal, Sun Wukong did not seem intent on giving up.

Instead, he leaped forward and appeared right in front of the Great Jade Emperor.

Sun Wukong grimaced and said, “Jade Emperor, aren’t you being a bit too stingy?

I, Old Sun, clearly stated that I just wanted to borrow your Vermilion Pen to play with, and I never said I wouldn’t return it.

Why must you be so miserly?”

“Great Sage!

Get down!”

Sun Wukong’s bold move startled all the immortals in the Lingxiao Hall.

Though everyone always knew of Sun Wukong’s playful nature, the Jade Emperor had already denied the loan, yet he actually charged forward?

This behavior was far too presumptuous, was it not?

“Get down?

Why?

Why can’t I, Old Sun, be here?

Why can’t I, Old Sun, take the Vermilion Pet to play with?” Turning his head to glance at the various figures below, Sun Wukong bared his teeth and spoke irritably.

“Someone, seize this rascal monkey!”

The capriciousness today was indeed too much, and Li Jing opened his mouth to shout assertively.

As Li Jing spoke, several Heavenly Generals took action.

At the same time, Li Jing was not slow either.

Raising his hand, his Exquisite Pagoda flew up and pressed towards Sun Wukong.

“You guys are really stingy!

I, Old Sun just wanted to stretch my muscles!” Watching the Exquisite Pagoda press towards him, Sun Wukong grinned and took out his Jingu Bang to meet it.

In no time, he was fighting a melee with the various immortal gods of the Lingxiao Hall.

“What’s with this monkey today?!

Why has he suddenly become so arrogant and unruly?” Nezha, watching Sun Wukong’s posture, felt inwardly surprised and said, unable to comprehend.

As the brawl in the Lingxiao Hall unfolded, the strength Sun Wukong displayed was still formidable, and the surrounding immortal gods found themselves unable to subdue him for the moment.

“Enough, Rascal Monkey!”

Seeing this situation, the Supreme Elder Lord could hardly bear to watch anymore and shouted out loud.

As his words fell, the Supreme Elder Lord once again took out the Vajra Bracelet from his bosom and threw it towards Sun Wukong.

“Heh heh heh, I, Old Sun won’t play with you all anymore, I’m off!” Seeing that the Supreme Elder Lord had intervened, Sun Wukong knew his prowess, retracted his Jingu Bang, and shouted loudly.

Suddenly, with a leap, he turned and flew out of the Lingxiao Hall.

…

Whiz!

Sun Wukong’s Somersault Cloud flipped very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived at the South Heavenly Gate and walked straight in without saying anything.

“Ah, wait, Great Sage…”

But, just as Sun Wukong walked into the South Heavenly Gate, a few Heavenly Soldiers stationed there started to block him.

“Eh?

What’s got into you guys today?

Are you trying to stop me, Old Sun, from going in?” Blocked by the Heavenly Soldiers, Sun Wukong widened his eyes and asked in surprise.

This seemed to be the first time he had been stopped at the South Heavenly Gate since coming out from the Five Elements Mountain.

“No, no, Great Sage, if you wish to go in, we naturally wouldn’t dare to block you, but, didn’t you just go in, Great Sage?

When did you come out?” Hearing Sun Wukong’s words, the Heavenly Soldiers stationed at the South Heavenly Gate hurriedly spoke.

“I, Old Sun, just went in?

What’s going on?

I never went in,” hearing the Heavenly Soldiers’ words, Sun Wukong looked utterly baffled.

“But, we all just saw you go in, Great Sage!” the Heavenly Soldiers said in unison, their faces also showing confusion.

For a moment, at the entrance of the South Heavenly Gate, Sun Wukong and a few stationed Heavenly Soldiers stood facing each other, all sporting baffled expressions.

“Forget it, forget it, no matter.

I, Old Sun will go to the Lingxiao Hall and first meet the Jade Emperor!”

Although he felt something was quite amiss, this convoluted thinking was exactly what Sun Wukong found most annoying.

Waving his hand dismissively, he spoke unconcernedly.

As he spoke, he walked straight inside.

This time, the few Heavenly Soldiers did not stop Sun Wukong any longer, but instead, they looked at each other and began whispering in low voices.

What exactly had happened just now?

Leaving aside what the Heavenly Soldiers of the Heavenly Court were thinking, once inside the South Heavenly Gate, Sun Wukong naturally flew towards the Lingxiao Hall as if he were in familiar territory.

Arriving at the entrance of the Lingxiao Hall, Sun Wukong, as always, barged into it.

“Sun Wukong!

You dare to come back!?”

Just then, the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals stationed at the Lingxiao Hall all pointed their weapons at Sun Wukong, loudly chastising him.
