At the Southern Heavenly Gate, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King brought Mighty Miracle God and the others back.
The Heavenly soldiers guarding the gate looked at the injuries on Li Jing and the others. Seeing that there were only a few thousand of them, they could not help but feel curious.
"What's going on? Didn't you go to attack the demon monkeys in the lower realm? Why are you in such a sorry state?”
Li Jing entered the Southern Heavenly Gate and instructed Mighty Miracle God and the others,""You guys heal first. I'll go see the Grand Empyrean.”
After saying that, he headed straight for the Soaring Heaven King Palace.
On the high throne of the Jade Emperor, Haotian looked at Li Jing who was kneeling down. His aura was cold and he was furious.
"Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, did you say that only a few thousand of your 100,000 celestial soldiers have returned?" he asked slowly.”
"This subject did not do his job well, Grand Empyrean, please punish me!”
Li Jing knelt on the ground and said bitterly.
If Sun Wukong was alone, he would have been captured.
However, it was normal that they couldn't take down the Flowerfruit Mountain with a fierce man like Jiang Chen.
However, he didn't dare to say this. He could only hope that the Grand Empyreans understood and didn't vent their anger on him.
Haotian took a few deep breaths and was about to send someone to capture Sun Wukong when he heard the words of Sage Zhunti.
"Haotian, don't send anyone to the lower realm. Agree to Sun Wukong's request and let him be the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal.”
Hearing this, Haotian became angry. You are a saint, but you can't interfere in the affairs of the Heavenly Court, can you?
"Senior Brother Zhunti, the Heavenly Court is the master of the Three Realms and was established by the Dao Ancestor.”
"If the other senior brothers and sisters know that I made Sun Wukong the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal and did something that would damage the reputation of the Heavenly Court, I'm afraid they'll find trouble with me.”
Hao Tian said indifferently.
What he meant was that the celestial heavens were established by the Dao Ancestor, and he was a Grand Empyrean personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor. Don't interfere in the celestial heavens 'matters.
Moreover, there were six Sages in the world. If Zhunti wanted to cover the sky and control the Heavenly Court, the other Sages might not agree.
Saint Zhunti could tell that he was furious when he was in the Chaotic Heaven of Buddha.
"A Quasi-Sage dares to talk to me like this? Haotian, you're very good!”
Zhunti sat cross-legged in the void with a gloomy look on his face.
However, he had no choice. The Dao Ancestor had stipulated that Saints were not allowed to make a move in the Three Realms.
If he dared to go down personally and make a move in the Three Realms, causing the Primordial World to shatter again, the Dao Ancestor might take action and kill him.
Zhunti didn't want to take this risk because of a trivial matter.
Moreover, Haotian was the Dao Ancestor's child, which was equivalent to half a disciple. If he killed him, it would be a slap to the Dao Ancestor's face.
Even if his true body appeared in the Three Realms, he would not dare to kill Haotian. At most, he would punish him severely.
"I will communicate with the other Saints. You just need to agree.”
"You let Sun Wukong become an official in the Heavenly Court and arrange for him to work in the Peach Garden.”
Zhunti said coldly.
Haotian was unhappy to hear that. So you're not sincere at all. It's okay to let Monkey be the Great Sage, but can't you at least give me some benefits?
You didn't give me any benefits, but you still want to give my things to the monkey. You, Sage Zhunti, are indeed the most thick-skinned person in the world!
Who didn't know that monkeys loved to eat peaches? Letting Sun Wukong enter the peach garden was akin to inviting a wolf into the house.
"No."
Hao Tian refused without thinking.
He was a ruthless person. The cause of the Battle of Gods Investiture was that the disciples of the Saints did not respect him and treated the prestige of the Grand Empyreans as nothing.
Haotian was so angry that he complained to Dao Ancestor. Therefore, Dao Ancestor created the Investiture of the Gods and caused a chaotic battle between the disciples of the saints.
How tragic was the Battle of Gods Investiture? How many people had died?
In the end, Haotian was the one who benefited. The immortals and gods who died were all listed in the Investiture of the Gods and had immortal records.
And the God List was under his control!
Zhunti was even angrier, but Haotian refused to give in. He had no choice but to promise many benefits, and Haotian finally agreed.
He collected his thoughts and looked at Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King,"" The monkey demon is too strong. It's not your fault."
He then turned to Taibai Jinxing and said,"Taibai, pass on my order. Summon Sun Wukong to the Heavenly Court and be the Great Sage Equal to Heaven!"”
All the immortals were shocked. Sun Wukong's actions could be said to be slapping the Heavenly Court and the Great Jade Emperor in the face. How could they tolerate this?
Only those powerful immortals and gods knew that Haotian and Zhunti had made some deal.
Everyone knew that Sun Wukong was his disciple. As his master, how could Zhunti not care about his disciple's matters?
Therefore, Taibai Jinxing accepted the order and went down to the lower realm to look for Sun Wukong.
Jiang Chen and the others were drinking and celebrating on the Flowerfruit Mountain. It was very lively. Suddenly, a little old man with a white beard came. He looked kind.
Sun Wukong's expression changed as soon as he saw this. He said,""Old man Tai Bai, you lied to me last time.”
"If you dare to come in front of me this time, do you believe that I will beat you to death?”
Taibai Jinxing hurriedly said," Great Sage, don't say that. This old man's body isn't strong enough to take a beating."”
"Great Sage?" The Bull Demon King's eyes flashed.""Could it be that the Jade Emperor has acknowledged his sixth brother's title as the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal?”
"That's right," Taibai Jinxing said with a smile.”
Lion Camel King and the others were shocked. The title of the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal was detrimental to the Heavenly Court's reputation.
It wasn't that there hadn't been any arrogant demon kings who had used it before, but the result was that they would often be trampled by the celestial heavens 'immortal army the next day.
He and all his subordinates had gone up to the Demon Slaying Stage of the celestial heavens. Their heads fell to the ground, and their true spirits were destroyed, never to be reincarnated!
Now, he actually agreed to let Sun Wukong use this name. It was simply unbelievable.
However, when they thought of the Sage Zhunti behind Sun Wukong, they could barely accept the shock.
Jiang Chen was the only one who remained calm. He had already seen through everything.
Sun Wukong looked at Jiang Chen with admiration in his eyes. Jiang Chen had said a few days ago that the Heavenly Court would acknowledge his name.
"Big Brother Jiang is really good at predicting things!"
Sun Wukong said in admiration.
He turned to look at the Grand White Golden Immortal and said in a much gentler tone,"Old man Tai Bai, I already know about this. Thank you for sending this letter.”
Taibai Jinxing smiled,"The Great Heavenly Venerate even invited the Great Sage to become an official."
"No! I, Old Sun, will never go in my life!"
Taibai Jinxing had not yet said,"Please follow me to heaven, Great Sage."”Sun Wukong interrupted him.
"Um Great Sage, the Grand Empyrean asked you to take on the role of guarding the Peach Garden.”
"Those Peaches of Immortality!"
"Stop talking, old man Tai Bai, I've decided to go!”
When Sun Wukong heard that it was an immortal position to guard the Peach Garden, he could have a chance to eat the Peaches of Immortality. He could not wait to agree.
When he was in the Heavenly Court, he had heard about the Queen Mother's peach garden.
It was said that there were 3,600 peach trees in the Peach Garden. The first 1,200 trees had small flowers and fruits. They ripened once every 3,000 years. After eating them, one would become an immortal and become healthy.
There were 1,200 trees in the middle, with layers of flowers and sweet fruits. They ripened once every 6,000 years. After eating them, people would ascend to immortality.
The last 1,200 had purple grain seeds that ripened once every 9,000 years. People who ate them lived as long as heaven and earth, as long as the sun and the moon.
