Chapter 136: Chapter 136 Vinayaka, Inside the Lunar Palace
Sun Wukong still remembered what Golden Cicada had said before, that when he had come to the Heavenly Court to seek learning, the three Buddha ancestors had just agreed on the matter of the journey to the west to obtain the scriptures and were no longer quarreling.
Therefore, it was very likely that Ju Li Sun had come with a mission.
Continuing to read the replies, the netizens at Zhi Hu thought the same as him.
Cat’s Whisker: "Then it all adds up, Ju Li Sun’s visit to the Ziwei Great Emperor was to scheme against the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy, and it just so happened that the Ziwei Great Emperor also wanted to take revenge on the people around Sun Wukong, so the two hit it off right away."
So-called Cabbage Dog: "And this also matches up with the original timeline of the Journey to the West, maybe that’s how the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy got taken down by them, after all, the Ziwei Great Emperor is the superior of the Four Heavenly Saints of the North Pole, he can control the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy, there are plenty of opportunities to take him down."
He Lanxuan: "Hehe, the Vighna Raksha Formation Diagram mentioned by the poster is quite interesting, it’s quite wickedly amusing!"
"Hey, what’s so wickedly amusing about old Sun?" Sun Wukong didn’t understand.
Look at this netizen’s reply.
He Lanxuan: "Vighna Raksha is the eldest son of the Free and Easy Heavenly King, of a brutal and lecherous nature. It’s said that to convert him, Guan Yin transformed into an unparalleled beauty, copulated with him, and only then converted Vighna Raksha into the Blissful Buddha.
Anyone interested can take a look at the statues of the Blissful Buddha, they depict a male and female in union."
Pursuing Books Cat: "FML, Guan Yin sitting on the lotus? That’s harsh on the eyes!"
Alien Road: "No wonder they say Cihang wears women’s clothing..."
Still Human Though: "Speaking of which, isn’t the Blissful Buddha that traitor from the Sect of Interception, Chang Er Ding Guang Immortal?"
Blue Little Hero: "That’s not a contradiction, when the Daoist Duo Bao joined the western regions, he first reincarnated as Shakyamuni, then established the Mahayana Buddhism before becoming the Buddha Tathagata.
After the Chang Er Ding Guang Immortal defected to the west, he could follow this path and become something like Vighna Raksha, now think about him and Guan Yin doing that... "
"Interesting, interesting." Sun Wukong’s lively eyes twinkled, not knowing if this was true or false, but if it were spread around, it would turn the Buddha Sect into a joke.
There were further replies below.
San You Product: "Remember when Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy was harassing Chang’e, he shouted and hollered, attracting the inspection spirits, and then, resisting arrest, he spilled and fought all the way, knocking over the Dou Niugong, and even ate the spiritual Ganoderma of the Lady Queen Mother.
In theory, given the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy’s strength, status, and backers, even after doing all this, he shouldn’t have been hammered by the Jade Emperor two thousand times and then cast down to the mortal realm.
This piece of logic is what the poster has filled in now, it could be that Taiyang Star Lord Xu Gai took advantage of Taiyin Star Lord Consort Jiang and framed the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy for this crime."
Bloody Frostbite: "This Xu Gai is just too disgusting, backstabbing for glory was bad enough, and now he wants to take advantage of his former master’s wife? Asks the poster to immediately kill him, or else mail a razor blade!"
[You have received a new suggestion: Kill Taiyang Star Lord Xu Gai, completing the suggestion will grant you a fourth-order treasure chest.]
"Hehe, old Sun is thinking the same thing!" A fierce light flashed in Sun Wukong’s eyes, as he hadn’t used the privilege of executing first and reporting later since becoming the Supreme Lord of the North Pole.
Feng Lenghan Autumn: "The poster could also play a trick on them, use this incident to counter-scheme against them for once, that would be really satisfying, our Monkey Brother can’t always be the one getting schemed."
[You have received a new suggestion: Turn the tables, plot a counter-scheme against the Ziwei Great Emperor and Ju Li Sun Buddha, completing the suggestion will grant you a fifth-order treasure chest.]
"That will have to be played by ear." Sun Wukong thought to himself.
Without the reminder from this netizen, actually, he already had this calculation in mind, but whether it could be done or not, he would have to wait until he reached the Taiyin Star to know.
When can I see my king: "There’s still Chang’e in the Lunar Palace, and she’s the one Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy harassed. I remember the woodcutter from Magic Square Mountain was the great wizard Yi, so will he make an appearance this time?"
Seeing this reply, Sun Wukong scratched his hand, thinking, "Whether the woodcutter brother comes or not, old Sun has to protect sister-in-law Chang’e’s reputation."
While pondering, he and Golden Cicada had exited the Northern Heavenly Gate and arrived at the expansive and boundless Celestial River.
Looking up, he could see the bright Taiyin Star, hanging in the starry sky just downstream of the Celestial River.
To avoid exposing their whereabouts, Sun Wukong instructed Golden Cicada to disguise themselves as soldiers from the celestial river’s navy, and they flew following the rolling current towards the Taiyin Star.
At this moment, Golden Cicada only knew that they were to intercept the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy from reaching the Lunar Palace, but he was unaware of the inside story, so this change once again raised his doubts.
"Great Saint, why do we need to sneak around like this?" Golden Cicada asked.
"Shut up and just watch," Sun Wukong scolded. "And from now on, you must call me Master, and don’t you dare utter any ’Amitabha’. If you expose our identities, I swear I’ll skin you and hang you, bare-bottomed, on the Southern Heavenly Gate!"
Golden Cicada fell silent, having learned over time that this monkey really meant what he said.
Not long after, they saw a figure wobbling in flight downstream of the celestial river, heading towards the Taiyin Star—it was the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy.
His foolish appearance suggested he was quite drunk.
Seeing that the Marshal was not moving quickly, Golden Cicada was about to call out to him.
"You dare speak up?" Sun Wukong’s eyes glinted menacingly.
"Why so fierce?" Golden Cicada muttered to himself, but ultimately he kept quiet, simply following Sun Wukong as they stealthily bypassed the Marshal and continued flying downstream, as if on patrol.
Soon, they approached the Taiyin Star.
They saw the bright moon suspended above the celestial river, immense and constantly radiating a chilling aura.
A serene palace stood atop it, fronted by a laurel tree blossoming with white flowers.
Sun Wukong then instructed Golden Cicada to transform into fairies out on a foraging errand with him, and they flew up to the Taiyin Star, heading straight for the Lunar Palace.
Although the Taiyin Star was cold and desolate, it was also home to quite a few immortals, not just the legendary Chang’e and the Jade Rabbit.
Apart from Chang’e, there was the Taiyin Star Lord Consort Jiang, Lady Shi Ji of the Wandering Stars, and several other fairies.
So when Sun Wukong and Golden Cicada entered as fairies, they went unnoticed at first.
Besides, other divinities seldom visited this place, and the fairies were not particularly vigilant. With a little probing, Sun Wukong found out where Chang’e resided within the Lunar Palace.
Golden Cicada, who had been following by the side, was stunned by Sun Wukong’s continuous actions. Who could have imagined that the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, the Earthly Fiends Marshal Sun Wukong, would infiltrate the depths of the Lunar Palace like a thief?
Could this truly be what it meant to follow one’s heart’s desire?
Golden Cicada seemed to have realized something, then followed to where Chang’e resided.
The door to the room was open, and through it, they could see an immortal dressed in a green gown, ungracefully guzzling wine straight from the flask.
They could also hear the immortal complaining, "That faithless man, how long has it been since he came to see me?"
Just then, the immortal’s wine ran out, and despite tipping the flask, no more wine dripped out.
"You two, go fetch me some wine," she ordered upon seeing the two fairies outside.
"Heh heh," Sun Wukong’s eyes twinkled as he conjured a flask of wine and walked in, only to turn and see Golden Cicada still standing outside. He urged, "What are you dawdling for?"
Golden Cicada wanted to say "Amitabha" but, remembering the threat of being hung on the Southern Heavenly Gate, he held back, clenched his teeth, and also walked in.
Only then did Sun Wukong feel at ease. He had brought Golden Cicada along as a witness for himself.
Otherwise, him being the only one to enter the Lunar Palace, populated entirely by women, could give rise to gossip.
He didn’t want to end up failing to save the Marshal or to outsmart his opponent, only to be besmirched himself.
