Chapter 5012 Chapter 5015 [Mad Trouble at the Peach Banquet]

Sure enough, a few days later, the Queen Mother's Peach Festival was about to be held, and all the gods and Buddhas in the sky had received invitations.

Including the Three Pure Ones, the Four Imperial Emperors, the Five Elders, the Six Officials, the Seven Elements, the Eight Extremes, the Nine Lights, the Ten Capitals, the various gods and immortals in the upper eight caves, the middle eight caves, and the lower eight caves, the Bodhisattvas, holy monks, and Arhats in the Buddhist world...

Although Sun Wukong is the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, he has not received the invitation to the Peach Banquet yet, which makes him anxious and irritable.

It was not until this day, when the Seven Fairies came to the Peach Garden to pick peaches, that Sun Wukong realized that he was not among the invited guests at all.

"A mere monkey is worthy of attending the Peach Banquet?"

"His title of Great Sage Equaling Heaven is just an empty title, but he took it seriously."

"I'm just a monkey watching over the orchard. How can I be qualified to attend the Peach Feast?"

The seven fairies were picking peaches and chatting with laughter.

Although Sun Wukong was not present, he actually had very sharp ears and heard the seven fairies' discussion from afar, and he immediately became furious.

He originally thought that after becoming the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, he would be equal to heaven and respected by all the gods and Buddhas. But he did not expect to be despised and treated as a monkey who only watched over the orchard.

"Oh, I'm so angry~" Sun Wukong's monkey nature broke out. He immediately froze the Seven Fairies and destroyed all the fairy peaches in the garden. Then he rushed to the Peach Festival and swept away all the prepared dragon liver and phoenix marrow, purple ganoderma and green lotus roots, jade liquid and fragrant wine.

Finally, he got drunk and accidentally broke into the Tushita Palace and ate the elixir made by Taishang Laojun.

Of course, when Sun Wukong was making a scene at the Peach Banquet, Xiang Nan was secretly following him.

When Sun Wukong ate peaches, he would throw them away after eating them, but Xiang Nan would directly put baskets of them into his pocket; when Sun Wukong ate delicacies, he would eat one and spit one out after eating them, but Xiang Nan would suck them all into his pocket like a tornado;

Sun Wukong ate elixirs, no matter whether they were raw or cooked, expensive or cheap, he would eat them whenever he saw them, but Xiang Nan only picked the good elixirs and packed them in gourds. If he was not afraid of being traced in the future, Xiang Nan would have wanted to take the Eight Diagrams Purple Gold Furnace away.

……

After Sun Wukong made a big fuss in the Tushita Palace and took the elixir, he sobered up a little and realized that he had caused a disaster that would destroy the world. He immediately rebelled against the Heaven again.

Xiang Nan, on the other hand, was holding his full pockets, filled with joy.

This time he made a fortune.

He had hundreds of the peaches that bloom once every three thousand years, bear fruit once every three thousand years, and mature once every three thousand years. It can be said that even the Queen Mother of the West had more than he did.

Afterwards, Xiang Nan pretended nothing had happened and took Xiaolongnu to the Peach Banquet.

In fact, according to her status, Xiaolongnu has not yet become an immortal, so she is not worthy of participating in the Peach Banquet.

But since she is both the wife of Marshal Tianpeng and the goddaughter of Queen Mother Wangmu, things are naturally different.

When the two arrived at Yaochi, they saw that all the gods had arrived one after another, but they only saw the cups and plates scattered all over the floor. All the delicacies and fine wines prepared for the event had disappeared.

Only the strong men who were carrying the wine and the fairies who were serving the food were left, fainted on the ground, unconscious.

"Ah?! What's going on? Why is it so messy?"

"Strange, who is so bold as to disrupt the Peach Feast?"

"Oh my, look at these leftovers. There are clearly teeth marks on them."

All the gods were shocked. They didn't expect that someone would dare to disrupt the Queen Mother's Peach Banquet. He was so audacious and didn't know his own life.

Just when everyone was wondering, the Seven Fairies who were restrained by Sun Wukong's spell finally recovered after a week and came to report.

There were only one or two baskets of small peaches and half a basket of medium peaches in the Peach Garden. There was not a single large peach that ripened once every nine thousand years. They were all eaten up. The biggest suspect was Sun Wukong, who was in charge of the Peach Garden, because he was the one who used the spell to freeze the sisters.

After hearing this, the Queen Mother became furious and immediately ordered someone to summon Sun Wukong.

The immortal official soon came to report that the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong, had resigned from his post again and rebelled against the Heavenly Palace.

In this way, everyone knew that the culprit of this Peach Banquet was Sun Wukong.

"Oh my God, how could Monkey King get into such a big disaster?" Xiaolongnu exclaimed in amazement.

"Hey, he originally thought he could attend the Peach Banquet, but in the end he didn't get a seat. With his temper, how could he accept that?" Xiang Nan explained, "It's no wonder he made such a fuss. After all, he has always been lawless and reckless."

"But the trouble he has caused this time is too big. He has offended all the gods and Buddhas in the sky. I really don't know how this will end." Xiaolongnu said worriedly.

"Don't be afraid, there will always be a way when you reach the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge." Xiang Nan comforted.

……

"Marshal Tianpeng, I order you to lead 100,000 heavenly soldiers to capture the demon monkey!" At this time, the Jade Emperor issued an order.

"I obey your command!" Xiang Nan said, and then assembled 100,000 heavenly soldiers to capture Sun Wukong.

"Brother Monkey, you've gotten into big trouble this time, and there's nothing I can do to help you. I can only apologize to you, brother." Xiang Nan said to Sun Wukong with regret.

"It's okay. I was wrong about this." Sun Wukong also knew that he had gotten into trouble. "Come on, I won't blame you."

Xiang Nan nodded and fought with Sun Wukong. Erlang Shen, the Four Heavenly Kings, 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers, and the Twenty-Eight Constellations all joined in the fight.

The battle was so chaotic that the sky was dark, the sun and the moon were dim, blood flowed everywhere, and the dead and wounded were everywhere. In the end, it was Taishang Laojun who threw down the diamond bracelet and hit Sun Wukong so hard that he was finally captured.

Afterwards, Sun Wukong was sent to the demon-slaying platform, where he was chopped with swords and axes, and struck by thunder and lightning, but he still could not be killed.

It turns out that Sun Wukong was born as a stone monkey, and his physical fitness was extraordinary. After eating so many peaches, delicacies, and elixirs, he became indestructible and immortal.

Therefore, it is difficult to kill him.

Seeing this, Taishang Laojun suggested that he be sent into the purple gold Bagua furnace for forging. As long as the elixir was extracted, Sun Wukong would naturally die.

The Jade Emperor then handed Sun Wukong over to Laojun for disposal.

The Jade Emperor then sealed Sun Wukong into the Bagua furnace for refining.

"Master, is it really possible?" Xiang Nan asked curiously.

"Whether it works or not is God's will. Whether it doesn't work or not is also God's will." Taishang Laojun said with a smile.

Xiang Nan was shocked, and then asked, "Master, if everything is up to God, then is there any need for us to struggle and work hard?"

"Things are determined by heaven, but destiny is determined by man." Laojun explained, "There are fifty great ways, forty-nine are derived from heaven, and man escapes one. Man proposes, but heaven disposes. Struggle and hard work are certainly useful."

"Then why do we still advocate 'ruling by doing nothing'?" Xiang Nan asked again in confusion.

"Wuwei does not mean doing nothing, but rather following the will of heaven and the trend of the times." Laojun explained, "Just like water flows downwards, no matter how much water you put on top, it will still flow to the bottom in the end.

But if you follow the flow of water as it flows, you can direct it to different places.”

"Thank you, Master. I understand." Xiang Nan gained enlightenment after hearing him say that.
