On the second day after Sun Wukong left the Heavenly Court, the Jade Emperor held a court session.
Hao Tian sat high on the dragon throne, his expression calm as usual, his eyes gently sweeping over the ministers.
Heavenly Master Zhang of the Heavenly Court knew what the Jade Emperor meant. As soon as he went to court, he led the Imperial Horse Supervisor and the Deputy Supervisor to report,"Your Majesty, the newly appointed Sun Wukong went to the Heavenly Palace yesterday because he despised his position.”
This was arranged by the Jade Emperor. He wanted everyone to know about this matter and deal with it seriously.
As soon as Master Zhang finished speaking, he saw the Heavenly King leading the heavenly servants outside the Southern Heavenly Gate. He reported,"For some reason, that horse Wen walked out of the Heavenly Gates.”
Hearing this, the Jade Emperor immediately issued an edict,"Which beloved minister is willing to descend to the lower realm and capture this demonic monkey?"”
When Heavenly King Li, who was in the palace, heard this, he thought that his opportunity had come. He immediately pulled the Third Prince Nezha and reported,"Your Majesty, this humble subject is untalented. Please issue an edict to subdue this demon.”
Sun Wukong was an important chess piece of Buddhism. It was the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King's intention to drive him out of the Heavenly Court. He needed Sun Wukong to cause a ruckus in the Heavenly Court to push the arrival of the Journey to the West.
Jiang Han knew that he could make a move. He also took a step forward and said,"Your Majesty, I have the responsibility of subduing the demons in the lower realm for the Divine Martial Great General. That demon monkey is so rampant, and I am duty-bound.”
The Jade Emperor was overjoyed to hear this. As the Lord of the Heavenly Court, how could he not know what Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King was thinking? He would not refuse.
However, Jiang Han, this direct descendant, had descended to the lower realm together. This made things different and could bring him more benefits.
The Jade Emperor named Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, as the Demon-subduing Marshal. He led the four Heavenly Kings and Nezha to the Lower Realm.
Heavenly King Li, Nezha, and Jiang Han thanked him and went to the drill ground to gather the three armies.
Jiang Han was already prepared. He had ordered the Divine Martial Army to temporarily stop handling missions and return to the barracks to wait for orders. Now, the speed of mobilizing troops was very fast.
"Soldiers, the demon monkeys of the lower realm don't respect the celestial heavens and rebel against the lower realm. What do you think we should do?”
Jiang Han shouted from a high place to raise the morale.
"Kill them!"
The 100,000 soldiers of the Divine Martial Army were extremely well-trained. They roared in unison, and their voices shook the sky.
These heavenly soldiers and generals had long since developed the character of obeying orders and not fearing strong enemies in the lower realm.
"Alright, come down with me!"
Jiang Han was extremely satisfied with the heavenly troops and generals under him. He called out to them and walked towards the Southern Heavenly Gate.
Under the Southern Heavenly Gate, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King and Nezha, the Third Prince, were ready. They each led 100,000 celestial troops.
As a Buddhist, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King was naturally familiar with the plan of the Journey to the West and had made preparations long ago.
The two men's 200,000 celestial soldiers and generals, together with Jiang Han's 100,000 celestial soldiers, made a total of 300,000 soldiers and generals. All of them were in high spirits and were ready to fight.
Just by standing there, these elite soldiers were enough to make one's heart palpitate. It was as if a flood of steel was washing over the road.
"General Shen Wu, this operation is led by me. Please do not act on your own.”
Li Jing, who was holding an exquisite pagoda, frowned slightly when he saw Jiang Han arrive and spoke.
Li Jing did not intend to really exterminate Sun Wukong in this demon conquest. He was just following the plan. However, now that there was a variable like Jiang Han, he was a little uneasy.
However, this was the Jade Emperor's order. He could not abandon the other party and act on his own.
"Don't worry, Heavenly King Li. I won't lose the prestige of the Heavenly Court or the reputation of the Divine Martial Army in this operation.”
Jiang Han didn't have a good impression of Li Jing and directly retorted.
Upon hearing this, Nezha looked at Jiang Han with more approval. His relationship with his father was well known in the Heavenly Court.
However, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King could only suppress his anger at the exquisite pagoda in his hand. He felt refreshed when he saw Jiang Han rebuke him like this.
Li Jing snorted coldly. The army was about to be dispatched. He did not care if Jiang Han would listen to him or not. He immediately led the leaders and the four Heavenly Kings as the vanguard. The fish belly generals followed behind and directly dispatched the army.
In an instant, 300,000 celestial troops and generals came out of the Southern Heavenly Gate. The vast golden clouds covered 30,000 miles and arrived at the Flowerfruit Mountain.
There were many demons in and out of the Flowerfruit Mountain. They were all wolves, insects, tigers, leopards, and the like. They were having sex, brandishing their spears and swords, jumping around and roaring…
In the Flowerfruit Mountain, the six demon kings were drinking with Sun Wukong.
"Brother, you were called away by that heavenly official and promoted by the heavens. Why did you come down in less than 30 days?”
A minotaur demon monarch in black gold armor held a large bowl of wine and asked.
This person was the leader of the Seven Demon Kings, the Bull Demon King. After he was defeated by Jiang Han, he ran away in a panic and happened to run to the Flowerfruit Mountain. He met Sun Wukong who wanted to expand his forces and form an alliance. Then, he used his martial arts to become a big brother.
The Monkey King became angry when he heard this. He waved his hand and said,""Hard to say, hard to say! That old Jade Emperor doesn't know how to use people. When he saw me like this, he sealed me as some kind of horse warmer. It turns out that I raised horses with him and they haven't entered the class!”
"I didn't know at first. I was just playing in the Imperial Horse Warden. Later, when I asked my colleagues, I realized that they were so lowly. How could I, Old Sun, suffer such grievances? That's why I came down.”
The Bull Demon King heard this and said,""Good timing. Brother, you are the king of this blessed land and grotto-heaven. You are respected and loved by the monkeys. How can you be willing to be his coachman?”
When Sun Wukong heard this, he felt extremely comfortable and shouted,""Yes, that old Jade Emperor doesn't know people, so why bother to lower yourself to his level? Wouldn't it be great if I were to be conferred the title of Great Sage Equal to Heaven?”
The six demon kings cheered in unison. They each gave a resounding title, namely the Great Sage of Pingtian, the Bull Demon King, the Great Sage of Seafloating Sea, the Great Sage of Mixed Spirit, the Kun Demon King, the Great Sage of Mountain Shifting, the Lion Tuo King, the Great Sage of Air Circulation, the Macaque King, and the Great Sage of Exorcism, the Yu Marmoset King.
For a moment, the entire Flowerfruit Mountain was immersed in a triumphant joy.
Although the seven demon kings had their own thoughts, they did not show it. In any case, it was a good thing that Sun Wukong had come down from the Heaven Realm.
However, good times did not last long. At this moment, some little demons ran into the cave and said,"Great King, bad news!"
The Monkey King was in high spirits. When he heard this, he frowned and asked,""What trouble?"
"Reporting to the king, there are many heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals gathered outside the gate. The leader of them is a huge man who said," I've come here to surrender under the imperial edict of the Jade Emperor. I'll teach you to go out and surrender as soon as possible so as not to hurt our lives.”
Hearing this, Sun Wukong's heart trembled. He knew that the people from the Heavenly Court had come to find him.
However, Sun Wukong was proud and arrogant. How could he be afraid of others coming to attack him? He was worried that Ma Wen's humiliation had nowhere to vent!
" Hmph!" Sun Wukong snorted coldly and said," How dare you come to Grandpa Sun's territory and act presumptuously? Bring me my armor. I'll teach them a lesson!"”
