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

Yaochi (Jade Pool).

dungeon.

"Your Majesty, you're saying that I, Old Sun, have knocked down all the peach trees?"

Sun Wukong's eyes widened.

I thought to myself, I, Old Sun, have only eaten no more than ten peaches in total!

There are only two peaches that are nine thousand years old!

Let's just let it go by blaming him for stealing the peaches!

After all, it was his own sworn brother who caused the trouble!

But what gives him the right to claim responsibility for knocking down the peach tree?

When he came in, all the peach trees were perfectly fine!

The Queen Mother of the West is clearly taking advantage of him and trying to scam him!

If the immortals of Heaven miss one Peach Banquet, they might at most grumble a little!

But if he were to ruin the Peach Banquet, wouldn't all the immortals in Heaven hate him to death?

"Your Majesty, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

Across from her, the Queen Mother picked up her spiritual tea, calmly took a sip, and then revealed a look of sudden realization.

"Yeah?"

"So I remembered it wrong!"

After saying that, she slowly got up, turned around, and prepared to leave.

Sun Wukong: "..."

He got it!

This means that as long as he doesn't acknowledge it, he can't get out!

Those immortals in Heaven are really ruthless!

"Your Majesty!"

The Queen Mother stopped in her tracks, a slight smile appearing on her lips.

She slowly turned around, feigning confusion and asking, "Is there anything else?"

Sun Wukong forced a smile.

"I, Old Sun, have just broken through to the next level, and my cultivation is not yet stable enough. I don't know..."

Since I'm going to take the blame anyway, I might as well ask for more benefits!

The Queen Mother smiled knowingly.

"I've heard that, in order to prepare for tomorrow's Peach Banquet, Laozi has begun refining two batches of Nine-Turn Golden Elixir. This will not only help Taiyi Golden Immortals stabilize their cultivation but also unleash their physical potential!"

You wicked monkey, if you want any benefits, then we'll see if you have the guts!

Sun Wukong: "..."

"Thank you for your guidance, Your Majesty!"

The Queen Mother ignored her and turned to go outside the prison.

The two fairies on duty were habitually going to lock the door.

"What are you doing?"

The Queen Mother's sudden question startled the two fairy guardians.

One of the fairies, dressed in purple robes, hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, we are doing this to prevent the peach-stealing monkey from escaping!"

"snort!"

The Queen Mother snorted coldly.

"How dare you call someone a 'monkey demon'?"

"The Great Sage is a celestial being of the highest rank in Heaven; how dare you defile him!"

The two fairies were two demon immortals who followed the Queen Mother of the West in ancient times. Due to the decline of the Purple Palace, they turned to the Heavenly Court and followed the Jade Pool.

The two of them weren't particularly strong, but they managed to survive two great calamities, so their sharp eyesight was certainly not lacking.

After a moment, they understood and bowed their heads in response, "Your Majesty, please forgive us!"

"We misremembered, Your Majesty! Please forgive us!"

The Queen Mother's expression gradually softened as she said, "Then what are you all standing there for?"

"Have all the lotus leaves in Yaochi been cut?"

The two fairies quickly caught up with the Queen Mother.

Before long, only Sun Wukong remained in the huge dungeon.

……

Nine Luminaries Palace, the main palace.

Shi Daju chose a room with a simple interior layout and abundant spiritual energy to stay in.

He was not in a hurry to reorganize the Nine Luminaries and the Twenty-Eight Constellations.

This is indeed the thing that he, as the Yuanjun, should do most.

But he doesn't only have one identity: the Giant Spirit Lord!

The most urgent task is to quickly summarize new action goals.

So far, he is fairly satisfied with his actions.

But he also knew very well!

This time, things went so smoothly, which was partly due to luck!

If the Jade Emperor or Buddha were to personally investigate the cause of Taibai Xingjun's death, he would most likely be exposed!

As the saying goes, if you walk by the river often enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet.

With his current strength, if he dares to take such a risk again, I'm afraid his fate won't be good!

But if we don't take the risks, how can we change the cause and effect of the journey to the west?

Keep in mind, even killing Taibai Xingjun didn't trigger the system!

Aside from participating in the karmic cycle of the journey to the West, he couldn't think of any other way to trigger the system!

"What should we do?"

Shi Daju frowned and fell into deep thought.

Continuing to target Sun Wukong?

Wait a minute... why am I targeting Sun Wukong?

I'm clearly brothers with Sun Wukong now!

If we help Sun Wukong rebel against the Heavenly Court, wouldn't that also disrupt the karmic order of Journey to the West?

Thinking of this, Shi Daju felt completely enlightened.

He subconsciously took out the Enlightenment Tea and Yellow Plum Fruit that the system had rewarded him with.

He had used one leaf of the Enlightenment Tea himself, and the effect was good, increasing his cultivation speed several times over!

But that's all!

At his current level, even if he only advances by a small margin, it will take at least hundreds of thousands of years!

Even if the entire process is done using leaves from the Enlightenment Tea Tree, it would still take at least 100,000 years!

Of course, this is also partly due to his poor footwork!

If one had the background of Sun Wukong and used the leaves of the Enlightenment Tea Tree, it would probably only take ten years to advance to a higher realm!

However, compared to the system's rewards, the effects of the Enlightenment Tea are still incredibly weak!

"It's too wasteful to use it ourselves. We should give it to Sun Wukong and let him cause more trouble for the Heavenly Court!"

As for the Huangzhong plum fruit... that's a super treasure that can help a peak Taiyi Golden Immortal break through to the Daluo Golden Immortal realm!

Using it now, putting aside whether it's wasteful or not, even with his current strength and physical capabilities, it's questionable whether he can fully digest it.

"Why not just give them to Sun Wukong too! That monkey was formed from the stone Nuwa used to mend the sky; even if his cultivation is weaker, he shouldn't be able to withstand the onslaught!"

Thinking this, he casually took out a nine-thousand-year-old peach and ate it in large bites.

Given his background and abilities, a 9,000-year-old peach is the most suitable for him!

Feeling his cultivation level steadily increasing, Shi Daju's eyes held a hint of anticipation.

I wish there were rewards that could improve my footwork!

With his current background, reaching the mid-stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal is already his limit!

……

The following day, the Peach Banquet was held as scheduled.

After Sun Wukong emerged, he kept his promise and caused a great disturbance at the Peach Banquet.

Not only did he trick all the immortals into coming to the Tongming Palace, but he also indulged in the spiritual wines and delicacies sent from all over the Three Realms, and finally staggered into the Tushita Palace of the Supreme Lord Laozi!

Coincidentally, Laozi's mount, the Green Ox, was not there!

The Golden Horned Boy and Silver Horned Boy from the Tushita Palace were also not there.

Even the boy who guarded the alchemy furnace had disappeared.

Sun Wukong immediately understood that this was all part of Laozi's plan.

Staring at the five gourds of freshly refined Nine-Turn Golden Pills on the stage, he gulped them down without a second thought!

When it could eat no more, it let out a burp and hurriedly descended to the mortal realm.

As a result, as soon as he arrived at the South Heavenly Gate, he encountered Shi Daju, who was wearing a robe with stars.

He instantly sobered up a bit!

Although he has acknowledged Shi Daju as his elder brother, the psychological trauma Shi Daju inflicted on him is something he has never forgotten to this day!

"Is my brother here to arrest me again?!"

Sun Wukong frowned in thought and subconsciously took a few steps back.

Shi Daju: "..."

"Don't panic, my dear brother!"

"Brother, I haven't come here to make things difficult for you, but rather to apologize on your behalf for what happened last time!"

After saying that, he took out the remaining nine Enlightenment Tea Leaves and one Yellow Plum Fruit!

"Last time, I didn't mean to leave you alone in the Peach Garden. It's just that the Queen Mother of the West was too powerful and arrived too quickly. You were at a crucial stage of your breakthrough and couldn't be disturbed. I had no choice but to leave ahead of time!"

"My dear brother, these are a token of my appreciation; I hope you will not refuse them!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong instantly looked ashamed.

I never imagined my older brother would think that way!

He actually thought his elder brother was doing this for merit, representing the Heavenly Court to capture him!

That really shouldn't have happened!

He subconsciously glanced at the spiritual object in Shi Daju's hand.

The next moment, his eyes widened suddenly!

Even during his extravagant Peach Banquet, he had never seen such a treasure!

Enlightenment Tea that enhances your understanding!

The supreme innate spiritual fruit, the Yellow Plum!

"this……"

"Brother...this is absolutely unacceptable!"

Sun Wukong was so moved he almost cried.

Shi Daju shoved Sun Wukong's hand back, his face serious, and said, "Do you still acknowledge me as your elder brother?"

"If you acknowledge it, then take it; if you don't, then pretend I was never here!"

Sun Wukong: "..."

My older brother is so good to me!
