The Primordial Giant Spirit God captures Sun Wukong at the start.

Li Jing couldn't understand it.

I just can't understand it!

But since things had come to this, he had no choice but to put Sun Wukong into the Linglong Pagoda and lead his heavenly soldiers and generals back to the capital.

As soon as they arrived at the South Heavenly Gate, they were stopped by Taibai Xingjun.

"Li Jing! You're so foolish!"

Li Jing was pondering how to revise the account book.

Startled by Taibai Xingjun, his primordial spirit almost left his body.

When I came to my senses, I felt an unquenchable anger in my heart.

But after recognizing that it was Taibai Xingjun, a favorite of the Jade Emperor, he forcibly suppressed his anger.

"What does the Star Lord mean by this?"

"May I ask, Your Majesty, how does that Giant Spirit God compare to the Dragon King of the East Sea?"

"The Dragon Lord of the East Sea possesses the bloodline of the ancient dragon race. He achieved the Golden Immortal realm during the Investiture of the Gods period, and now he has reached the peak of the Golden Immortal realm. Although the Giant Spirit God has some talent, he cannot be compared with the Dragon Lord of the East Sea!"

"How does that giant spirit god compare to King Qin Guang?"

"King Yama is in charge of the Ten Courts of Hell, and is the head of the Ten Kings of Hell. His cultivation is not far from that of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, far surpassing that of the Giant Spirit God!"

"If that's the case, then why couldn't they all do anything to that demonic monkey, but the Giant Spirit General could?"

Li Jing was taken aback.

He wanted to know why too!

Even if the Giant Spirit God had broken through, he was only at the early stage of the Golden Immortal realm. Who would have thought that this guy could capture the demon monkey so easily!

They ruined all his plans!

Seeing that Li Jing still didn't understand, Taibai Jinxing coughed lightly and whispered a reminder, "May I ask, Heavenly King, did that demon monkey resist fiercely when it was captured?"

Li Jing paused for a moment.

That demonic monkey overturned the Dragon Palace of the East Sea and tore up the Book of Life and Death; he was clearly a lawless tyrant!

Unfortunately, they encountered the Giant Spirit God and were captured without putting up any resistance!

Something is wrong!

"Does the Star Lord mean that the demon monkey did it on purpose?"

Taibai Xingjun nodded in satisfaction, revealing an expression that showed he was a promising student.

"This demonic monkey took the magic staff from the Dragon Palace of the East Sea and crossed out the lifespan records of the monkeys from Flower Fruit Mountain in the underworld..."

He stopped mid-sentence at just the right moment.

Upon hearing this, Li Jing immediately understood.

He was right.

This monkey demon is indeed a sensible one!

But this is subject to certain conditions.

The monkey demon helped the Dragon King and Yama settle their score because he received a bribe.

He didn't offer any benefits, so the demon monkey was unwilling to settle the score for him!

Upon realizing this, Li Jing felt a surge of annoyance.

If you really help me with this matter, how could I possibly treat you unfairly?

The Dragon King and Yama can arrange a stable job for you through Taibai Xingjun, so why can't I arrange a high-ranking immortal position for you through the disciples of the Chan Sect?

You call yourself a disciple of a sage? Can't you even see this much of the situation?

What a short-sighted person!

But since things had come to this, there was nothing he could do.

He was especially troubled by the mess left behind by all the big shots.

If you miss this opportunity, you'll never find another scapegoat with such a powerful background!

"Please, Star Lord, offer some guidance!"

Taibai Jinxing narrowed his eyes and chuckled, "Monkeys are inherently cunning, let alone a stone monkey born of nature?"

"It's understandable that the Heavenly King fell into a trap without realizing it!"

Li Jing's eyes lit up, but after glancing at the golden light shining above the South Heavenly Gate, he said with slight doubt, "Having reached the Heavenly Realm, isn't this somewhat inappropriate?"

Making a move right under the Jade Emperor's nose still made him a little uneasy.

Venus waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "It's alright!"

"That demonic monkey could instantly kill nine-tenths of the Imperial Horse Stables' 100,000 heavenly horses; what wouldn't he dare to do?"

"He might even dare to eat the peaches of immortality from the Queen Mother of the West!"

Li Jing's eyes widened suddenly.

No wonder that celestial horses from the Heavenly Court appeared in droves in the Earthly Immortal Realm without anyone investigating.

So it was you, old man, who was reselling them!

He thought he was shameless enough by reporting some bad debts, but he didn't expect there were experts out there!

Not only did they unearth old, trivial matters, but they also took the opportunity to make a hefty profit!

This old fellow isn't afraid of the Jade Emperor getting really angry!

and many more……

The Queen Mother of the West's peaches of immortality...

The Peach Feast is not yet ready!

This old guy... hiss... could it be that even the Queen Mother of the West wants to...?

No wonder!

No wonder this old guy was so fearless!

It turns out there was a mastermind behind this!

Once he understood this, he instantly realized the truth and calmed down.

Compared to the actions of these immortals, what are his little mess?

Even if His Majesty the Jade Emperor knew, he would probably understand.

Seeing that Li Jing understood his hint, Taibai Xingjun was relieved.

He didn't linger any longer, got up to say goodbye, and then disappeared.

Behind him, Shi Daju was deep in thought.

Although the system is named the Causal Change System, in reality, minor causal changes cannot trigger it at all.

However, he remained calm.

The main characters in the great tribulation of the journey to the West are ultimately the four pilgrims.

Any alteration of cause and effect involving the four pilgrims will trigger the system!

In other words, as long as one keeps adding fuel to the Buddhist westward journey plan, the system will be triggered continuously, and he will grow rapidly accordingly.

Thinking of this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

At least we have a direction for growth!

The next thing to consider is how to get in touch with Sun Wukong again!

Logically, Sun Wukong's fate had already been altered by him, and he was to be judged by the Heavenly Court ahead of schedule. However, the scores between the Queen Mother of the West and Laozi had not yet been settled, so things were unlikely to end so easily.

Of course, that's not something he should be thinking about. What he's really worried about is that, given his current status, even if Sun Wukong is imprisoned by the Heavenly Court, it's not his place to guard him.

As a vanguard general of the Heavenly Court, he cannot easily abandon his post. In that case, how can he contact Sun Wukong and trigger the system?

With his strength at the early stage of Golden Immortal, forcibly violating the Heavenly Laws to contact Sun Wukong would at best result in him being banished to the mortal world, and at worst, he would be sent to the eighteenth level of hell!

Using the cultivation cards awarded by the system would be fine, but three minutes is still too short.

Moreover, the Heavenly Court only appears weak on the surface; in reality, there are quite a few powerful Golden Immortals hiding in the shadows!

This seems to be a bit troublesome!

His brows furrowed unconsciously, forming a deep frown.

Since things have come to this, let's just take it one step at a time!

"Nezha, take the Giant Spirit General to the Lingxiao Palace to report to His Majesty. I will settle the heavenly soldiers and generals and then arrive!"

Li Jing was a man of action.

To prevent any accidents, he also sent Nezha and the Giant Spirit God away in advance.

He knew about Nezha's strength.

When he goes all out, even a typical early-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal is no match for him; he is no weaker than the demon monkey.

As for the Giant Spirit God... its strength is not a threat, but the timing of its breakthrough is too strange, giving him a vague feeling that it is out of control, so it's best not to keep it by his side for the time being.

Nezha assumed that Li Jing was trying to find time to sort out the mess, so he snorted and turned to head towards the Lingxiao Palace.

Shi Daju quickly followed.

Before long, he followed Nezha to the Lingxiao Palace, the most prestigious Taoist temple in the Three Realms.

In his memory, he had only been here once, the time when he was conferred the title of Giant Spirit God, so he was inevitably a little nervous.

Fortunately, the Jade Emperor's attention was entirely focused on Nezha.

Nezha performed the salute skillfully and was about to report the results of the battle when a loud bang came from the direction of the South Heavenly Gate.

At the same time, a familiar figure rushed into the main hall in a disheveled state; it was Li Jing!

At this moment, his face was covered in blood, and his eyes were filled with grief and indignation.

With a "thump," he knelt down on the ground.

"Your Majesty, that treacherous monkey feigned capture and, taking advantage of Nezha and the Giant Spirit God's absence, suddenly launched a violent attack, slaughtering the heavenly soldiers and generals. He proclaimed himself the 'Great Sage Equal to Heaven' and threatened that if Your Majesty did not grant his request, he would storm the Lingxiao Palace the next day. I was caught off guard, and the heavenly army suffered more than half its casualties. I beg Your Majesty to punish me!"
