Chapter 427: Making Trouble in Heaven
But he found that no matter how hard he tried, it didn’t move at all.

I just felt a sense of powerlessness, as if I were an ant trying to shake the tree that supported the sky.

Hongjun shook his head repeatedly: “What you hold in your hand is the former Zhunti Saint. His body is so strong that you can’t defeat him with brute force~”

After hearing this, Yang Jian took out his diamond cutter and was about to smash it, but was stopped by the flashing light on the blue and white porcelain plate.

“How about I play a game with you? If you win once, you can bring in an innate spiritual treasure to cook this delicious food.”

Hongjun spoke as if he had expected this.

Yang Jian looked at Hongjun warily, thinking that he was waiting here.

The last time he met Hongjun, he made a gamble with him and won a lotus seed from him, which turned into a black lotus of destruction.

At this time Hongjun brought it up again, which made Yang Jian extremely alert.

He sneered and said, “Daozu, you can tell me about it.”

“I have already noticed the arrangement between you and the saints. You want to use the monkey head to fight against my Chaos Heavenly Demon in the heavens. How about we make a bet with the monkey head?”

“How to bet.”

“The most suitable thing in the prehistoric world to counter the magical powers of the Chaos Demons is the Tathagata’s Mahayana Buddhism. However, this monkey did not practice this as I thought before. I just saw that the Heavenly Court recruited this monkey again. Haotian asked this monkey to guard the Peach Garden. It is really absurd to let the monkey guard the peaches. I think it is because the Tathagata’s Mahayana Buddhism has many restrictions, and it is necessary to go through a test of one’s character before one can achieve the right result. Am I right?”

Hongjun smiled.

Yang Jian said nothing.

Hongjun continued, “This crab is delicious, but it is very troublesome to eat. It requires a small hammer, a small chisel, a small knife, and small tweezers to eat it intact. Why not bet on whether this monkey head can really achieve the right result as you arranged, control the incarnations of the heavens, and fight against this seat’s Chaos Demon.

I will attack four times. Every time I break through, you can use one of your innate spiritual treasures to transform it into an utensil for eating delicacies. Even if there is only one, at most it will just waste some time to eat it, and it will not harm you.

Even if you lose, it doesn’t matter. By then, I will control the way of heaven and will naturally allow you to ascend to the holy position. Moreover, by then, those fellow Taoists will be in trouble and will be eager for you to achieve the holy position so that they can join forces to fight against me.”

After saying that, Hongjun continued to tempt him, “You and I can actually be friends. We can deploy our troops in front and let those creatures fight to the death. In Zixiao Palace, we are fellow Taoists who help each other. No matter who wins or loses, it will be a hundred benefits for you. What do you think, my friend?”

Yang Jian thought about it and couldn’t see any disadvantages to himself, so he nodded in agreement.

Upon seeing this, Hongjun stretched out one hand and a jade plate appeared in his hand, which was the Jade Plate of Creation.

The characters on the Jade Disc of Creation flowed, gradually revealing the scenery of heaven, as if one were there in person.

Among them, there is a monkey jumping up and down, it is Sun Wukong.

The two watched quietly, and no one took the initiative to attack.

The monkey was seen guarding the peaches diligently. After all, the Emperor of Heaven had conferred him the title of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, which was a gesture of great respect, so the monkey naturally returned the favor.

When he entered the Peach Garden, he saw that the fruits were sparse. He thought it was no wonder that the Emperor of Heaven sent him to guard it. The peaches must have been frequently visited by thieves, which was why they were in such a miserable state.

He then personally sat in charge of the Peach Garden, and using his seventy-two transformations, he transformed himself into a red and white fine peach, which he hung in a conspicuous place in the forest, ready to capture the brat and gain some merit.

One day, the Queen Mother held a banquet, opened the treasure pavilion, held the “Peach Festival”, and sent seven fairies to pick peaches.

The Seven Fairies entered the Peach Garden and picked a few fruits from the front trees. They found that there were no ripe peaches on the first few trees in the garden. They looked towards the back, only to see that the peach trees at the back were in an even more horrible state, with sparse flowers and fruits on the trees, and only unripe green peaches.

The Seven Fairies were horrified that the Peach Garden had been robbed. How could they hold a Peach Banquet with so many green-skinned fruits?

They were just about to go back and report to the Queen Mother when suddenly the fairy in green saw a top-quality peach not far away, so she stepped forward, pulled it down with her hands, and put it in the basket.

Suddenly I felt the basket became heavy and I couldn’t hold it anymore. It fell to the ground and the basket of green peaches rolled out.

The Great Sage jumped out and said, “Hey, who are you to steal the peaches? You are finally caught by Grandpa Great Sage!”

He pulled the golden cudgel out of his ear and was about to smash it down.

The seven fairies knelt down in panic and said, “Great Sage, please calm down. We are not monsters. We are sent here by the Queen Mother~~~” The seven fairies said that all fairies were invited to the Peach Banquet, but Sun Wukong was the only one who was not invited.

Wukong was unhappy: “You said you are not here to steal peaches. I need to go and find out. You wait here.”

Naturally the seven fairies were unwilling to do so, and they wanted to report the theft of the peaches to the Queen Mother, but were stopped in their tracks by Wukong.

The Great Sage went to Yaochi Lake and happened to meet the Barefoot Immortal who was going to attend a banquet there. From him he learned that there really was such a grand banquet at Yaochi Lake.

He felt annoyed. The Queen Mother really looked down on him. He was the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. Wasn’t he worthy of attending the banquet in Yao Chi?

He sent the barefoot immortal away, changed into his appearance, went to the Yaochi Lake, played tricks with his magical powers, ruined the Yaochi festival, got drunk, stole the elixir, and made a big fuss. After he sobered up, he realized the evil things he had done, but it was too late to regret. He also heard that he was accused of embezzlement and could not explain himself, so he hurried down to the mortal world, entered the Flower-Fruit Mountain, and became the Demon King again.

The Emperor of Heaven was furious and sent Li Jing with 100,000 heavenly soldiers to capture the monkey monster.

~~~~~
“Interesting, interesting!”

Hongjun clapped his hands and said with a smile: “What a good show.”

“Is Daozu preparing to take action?”

Yang Jian asked.

“Let’s wait and see.”

Hongjun smiled but said nothing.

In the scene, Li Jing leads Nezha and 100,000 heavenly soldiers to threaten the Flower-Fruit Mountain.

After the giant spirit took the lead and the single demon monkey was defeated.

Li Jing sent Nezha to subdue the monkey demon.

Nezha had already cultivated a golden body and obtained the Golden Immortal Fruit at this time. However, he was unable to defeat Taiyi Tianxian’s monkey for a while, and it was obvious that he was deliberately letting him win.

He just wanted Li Jing to take action, so he secretly disobeyed his orders.

“This Nezha is really interesting! Let’s watch a good show.”

Hongjun’s eyes lit up, and he reached out and took the Linglong Tower from Li Jing’s hand.

Li Jing was standing on the clouds, staring intently at the battle situation below, when he suddenly felt his hand lighten, and the exquisite pagoda disappeared.

He was startled and looked around to see who was behind the attack and who was playing tricks on him in front of a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers.

But saw nothing.

Suddenly, he heard the noise of the fight below slow down, and he panicked, thinking that Nezha had abandoned the monkey and was coming to kill him.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that Nezha was subdued by the monkey. The monkey raised the golden cudgel and pierced Nezha’s head hard, splashing red and white blood everywhere.

“The demon monkey is ferocious!”

Li Jing breathed a sigh of relief and ordered the heavenly soldiers to kill them.

Suddenly, he saw Nezha, who was beaten by the monkey demon, turned into rubble.

I heard a buzzing sound, like Hot Wheels.

Warning signs arose in his heart, and he looked back to see Nezha riding on a wind-fire wheel and holding a flaming spear, coming straight towards him.

He shouted, “Li Jing, die!”
