Upon hearing the report from the heavenly soldiers, the Jade Emperor's eyes darkened, and his expression turned unpleasant.
Glancing at the assembled immortals, the Jade Emperor slammed his palm onto the table before him, "Go! Drag that demon monkey in!"
At these words, the immortals exchanged glances. After a moment of silence, they all raised their weapons and walked out of the Hall of Miraculous Clouds...
"Boom—"
Not long after, loud bangs and screams echoed from outside the Hall of Miraculous Clouds.
The Jade Emperor rubbed his temples. Just as he raised his eyes to observe the battle outside, the very next second, the Hall of Miraculous Clouds was smashed through, creating a gaping hole...
The Jade Emperor, "..."
When he finally saw the figure that had breached the Hall of Miraculous Clouds, he could no longer remain seated.
The figure who had broken the Hall of Miraculous Clouds was none other than Taibai Jinxing.
At this moment, Taibai Jinxing, disheveled and battered, climbed up from the ground. As he raised his eyes, he met the Jade Emperor's gaze, and the atmosphere became incredibly awkward.
"Boom—"
Just as the two stood in silent contemplation, another hole appeared next to the existing one behind Taibai Jinxing. A figure in black, also battered, crawled up from the ground, successfully breaking the peculiar silence.
The Jade Emperor, "..."
"Boom boom boom—"
While the Jade Emperor was utterly bewildered, several more consecutive loud booms reverberated, causing the entire Hall of Miraculous Clouds to tremble, threatening to collapse.
The Jade Emperor, "..."
Regaining his senses, the Jade Emperor instinctively stood up, intending to leave the Hall of Miraculous Clouds. However, in the next moment, after yet more booming sounds, the entire Hall of Miraculous Clouds completely collapsed, burying the slow-reacting Jade Emperor amidst the rubble.
The buried Jade Emperor, "..."
"Cough cough cough!"
The Jade Emperor finally managed to push away the debris in front of him and climb out. As he raised his eyes, he was met face-to-face with a large iron hammer.
The Jade Emperor, "..."
Sun Wukong looked at the disheveled Jade Emperor before him, his expression grim, "Hand over Master Xiao Hong!"
The Jade Emperor was completely bewildered, having no idea what Sun Wukong was talking about.
"Guards! Quickly, quickly apprehend this demon monkey!"
Sensing danger, the Jade Emperor realized that after calling out for a long time, there was no response. He was bewildered again. Looking around, he saw all the immortals sprawled on the ground, groaning in disarray...
The Jade Emperor, "..."
The Jade Emperor swallowed instinctively. He was merely an empty shell, outwardly strong but inwardly weak, and therefore, he was no match for the monkey before him...
At this moment, Sun Wukong impatiently scratched his head. He roughly pressed the large iron hammer against the Jade Emperor's forehead and asked again, "Hand over Master Xiao Hong!"
The Jade Emperor, "..." I do not know any Master Xiao Hong!
Seeing Sun Wukong's readiness to act, the Jade Emperor quickly said, "Go to the West! It must have been Guanyin Bodhisattva! She was the one who sent you to heaven to be the Stable Boy! I was merely following orders! You cannot kill the innocent!"
Hearing this, Sun Wukong's eyes narrowed dangerously. He cast a deep glance at the Jade Emperor on the ground, suddenly recalling what his master had told him about not killing the innocent...
With that in mind, Sun Wukong flashed and disappeared from his original spot.
After leaving the heavenly palace, Sun Wukong tossed the large iron hammer in his hand. The next second, with a thought, the large iron hammer transformed into the shape of a cloud.
He leaped onto the cloud and flew directly towards the West.
Before long, he arrived at the Western Heaven.
Soon, Sun Wukong stormed into the Great Thunderclap Temple...
Upon hearing the report from his subordinate, Yi Yun Chuan's expression was peculiar, but he also felt relieved. Fortunately, the plot had not deviated. Although he didn't know why Sun Wukong had come here, he was certain that the monkey must have already wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace, and now it was time for his own grand entrance...
Thinking this, Yi Yun Chuan rubbed his hands together excitedly and stepped outside...
