Chapter 131: Chapter 131: Misunderstanding?

Under the command of Ziwei Great Emperor, all celestial soldiers and generals and the matters of diligence were managed by Xu Gai of the Sun Star Lord Mansion.

The military supplies division once controlled by the Four Saints of the original North Pole, such as the Terracotta Army and the Heavenly River Navy, were also listed here.

At this moment, a large array of golden-armored celestial soldiers arrived from all directions, surrounding Sun Wukong and his two companions outside the Sun Star Lord Mansion, as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Interesting, interesting," Sun Wukong did not let Yuan Hong take action immediately, but instead watched everything in front of him with great interest.

The celestial soldiers below might not recognize him, the Great Sage Equalling Heaven of the North Pole, but those divine generals and celestial generals definitely recognized him, as he had frequently patrolled the Northern Heavenly Court to show his power not long ago.

Now, the way things felt here did not seem to fall under the Heavenly Court’s jurisdiction.

Ziwei Great Emperor was merely a mortal before his Divine Enthronement, yet he managed to wield such great authority within the Heavenly Court afterwards; truly no simple feat.

Sun Wukong had intended to use diplomacy before force, but after waiting for a while, and seeing that no one came to greet them, a fierce light flickered in his eyes and he sneered, "General Yuan, show them who stands before them."

Yuan Hong, unable to hold back, took up his Water-Fire Stick and swung it immediately.

The shadow of the stick was like a curtain, sweeping across the Zi Wei celestial soldiers with the mighty aura of a Daluo Golden Immortal, brazenly breaking their formation with sheer brutality.

He stood in front of Sun Wukong and scolded those celestial soldiers and generals, "A bunch of blind dogs, here stands the North Pole Celestial Honor! How dare you obstruct him?"

Then he laughed furiously in all directions, "So this is the Purple Tenuity Imperial Star? Can’t even respect proper courtesies!"

His voice spread across the whole of Zi Wei and was also conveyed to the Northern Heavenly Court.

Sun Wukong, merely standing there with his hands behind his back, bore the truly majestic presence of a Celestial Honor.

The next moment, the gates of the Sun Star Lord Mansion opened.

A silver-armored divine general walked out leisurely, coming before Sun Wukong, and respectfully saluted, "I was unaware of the North Pole Celestial Honor’s visit, please forgive the lack of a distant welcome."

Sun Wukong kept a straight face, ignoring him.

Deng Jiugong said, "Let the commander announce his name, so the Celestial Honor knows who he is."

The silver-armored divine general frowned slightly before saying, "I am Xu Gai, the Sun Star Lord of the Central Heavenly Empire."

Bam!

Sun Wukong kicked him back into the Sun Star Lord Mansion, "What riffraff dares to posture before your elder, Wukong?"

Xu Gai, furious yet not daring to speak, felt his face utterly lost by that kick, which though not forceful, humiliated him greatly.

Suppressing his anger, he returned before Sun Wukong and respectfully said, "This humble deity’s manners were lacking, I beg for your forgiveness, Celestial Honor."

Sun Wukong still said nothing, merely glancing at Yuan Hong.

Yuan Hong immediately caught on, demanding, "Why have you detained my subordinate officers?"

Xu Gai obviously knew who he was talking about, explained, "Marshal Tian Peng assaulted a superior officer due to a breach of the Heavenly rules, and he was thus detained by me for His Majesty to judge, not unlawfully detained."

Yuan Hong sneered, "Assaulting a superior? Who did Tian Peng hit? Why did he do it?"

Xu Gai replied without subservience, "He did it merely over a disagreement in discourse with the Eastern Dipper Officer Ji Shuming."

Yuan Hong laughed angrily, "You hypocrite, capable of fratricide and betrayal to Zhou, could truly commit any act of distorting the truth!"

Stung by the jab, Xu Gai shouted, "Yuan Hong, do not speak nonsense to tarnish my reputation!"

Yuan Hong laughed loudly, "A sycophant who betrayed his master for glory, and you talk of me tarnishing your reputation?"

As Sun Wukong watched the spectacle unfolding, he thought to himself how smart the Jade Emperor was to always let Tai Bai Jin Xing speak up; watching his subordinates argue indeed gave a gratifying feeling of supremacy.

As for what Yuan Hong said, he also knew what was going on.

Xu Gai had been a minister of Shang Dynasty during the Divine Enthronement battle, initially siding with Zhou wholeheartedly, and ultimately killing his own younger brother Xu Fang.

At this point, Yuan Hong continued, "This time you have again twisted the facts, clearly you have withheld the military supplies of my Earth Fiends division. Fei Peng tried to retrieve them several times, but you kept stalling with various excuses,

"My soldiers of the Earth Fiends division are slaying demons and eliminating evils in the land of Northern Darkness, and yet you still withhold our military supplies; who could endure this?"

Xu Gai, however, calmed down and said solemnly, "The allocation of supplies follows formal regulations and takes time, how could it be taken at will?"

Yuan Hong paused for a moment, temporarily at a loss for a rebuttal.

Sun Wukong remained silent throughout.

Deng Jiugong laughed, "The Sun Star Lord mentioned regulations, but it’s uncertain whether these regulations are even valid?

The North Pole Celestial Venerable, following the emperor’s decree to inspect the Heavenly Court’s North Pole, may verify the good and the evil and hold the authority over reward and punishment,

"May I request the Celestial Venerable to inspect your so-called regulations?"

Xu Gai’s expression changed, and now he didn’t know how to respond.

"Hmm?" Sun Wukong suddenly looked into the distance.

Someone in red imperial robes, a handsome young man, was approaching from afar, surrounded by maiden fairies and immortal children, exuding immense dignity.

Who the person was, was clear at a glance—it was the Central Heavenly North Pole Ziwei Great Emperor.

"North Pole Celestial Venerable, there might be some misunderstandings here, why don’t we discuss this slowly at my palace?" Ziwei Great Emperor said with a light laugh, graceful, making one unable to harbor any irritation.

"Hehe, I just love this place, spacious and comfortable," Sun Wukong laughed, then his eyes flashed fiercely, "As for the misunderstanding you speak of..."

Boom!

Before he finished speaking, he raised his hand to strike, channeling immense Daluo mana into a gigantic palm imprint that he slammed down.

The Sun Star Lord Mansion, even grander than the Great Sage Equalling Heaven Mansion, was instantly reduced to rubble.

The people inside, however, were all unharmed, as Sun Wukong had moved them out using the Move Stars and Change Fights technique.

Included was the tightly bound Fei Peng and the wounded Ji Shuming, official of the Eastern Constellation.

Sun Wukong glanced at them, and laughed again, "Sorry, it truly was a misunderstanding; I meant to swat a bug, but it turns out this Sun Star Lord Mansion was not as sturdy as expected and collapsed first."

Ziwei Great Emperor still smiled, nodding his head, "If there’s a misunderstanding, it should be resolved right away."

Whoosh...

He reached out to grab Fei Peng and Ji Shuming in front of him, then personally untied Fei Peng’s bindings, sighing, "Fei Peng, Marshal of Heaven, it is my mismanagement that caused you distress."

But Fei Peng was unimpressed, scoffing, "Stop with the pretense, I can’t stand it!"

After saying this, he quickly returned to Sun Wukong’s side, bowing in shame, "Marshal, I have disgraced the Earth Fiends division, please punish me!"

Sun Wukong scolded, "You deserve punishment; it was your right to be firm, yet you resorted to hitting people. Not only did you hit them, but you also hit so gently, truly embarrassing me too!"

Fei Peng felt even more ashamed.

The expressions on the faces of Xu Gai, Ji Shuming, and others turned uglier.

Ziwei Great Emperor then said with a smile, "North Pole Celestial Venerable, now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, seeing as we both reside in the Heavenly Court’s North Pole, we should support each other in the future."

Sun Wukong’s eyes flashed fiercely again, but he wasn’t ready to let things end, he coldly laughed, "Who said it has been resolved? The honors earned by my Earth Fiends division soldiers through bloodshed have been withheld by you as military supplies, how should this account be settled?"
