Sun Wukong's appearance immediately attracted the attention of other immortals and gods not far away.
Among them seemed to be someone he knew well, who greeted him, "Great Sage, what brings you here? Didn't you say you weren't coming...?"
Bang!
Before the man could finish speaking, he was startled by a blow from Sun Wukong's staff.
Not only him, but everyone present was stunned as they watched Sun Wukong smash a whole table of peaches to pieces with a single blow.
"Great Sage, this...this..."
The incredulous look in his eyes made Sun Wukong a little embarrassed. He scratched his head and said, "The golden cudgel was too heavy, I couldn't hold it."
Bang!
Another blow, and another table of peaches was smashed to pieces.
"Oh dear, what's going on today? Why is this golden cudgel not obeying my commands?" With exaggerated acting skills, Sun Wukong manipulated the golden cudgel, smashing the tables of peaches to pieces with each blow.
The gods and immortals then realized what was happening and were furious.
"Sun Wukong! What exactly do you want to do!"
"You plague-ridden monkey, do you even know that today is the day the Queen Mother of the West is holding her Peach Banquet? How dare you!?"
At this point, Sun Wukong couldn't keep up the act any longer. He steeled his resolve and said fiercely, "Today, I, Old Sun, am going to smash this Peach Banquet! Even the Jade Emperor can't stop me! Blame the Queen Mother of the West for not inviting us..."
"You impudent monkey, stop your arrogance!" A child's excited voice rang out, interrupting Sun Wukong's words.
A child dressed in a lotus-shaped skirt, riding on wheels of fire and wind, holding a fire-tipped spear, and with a sash around his waist, rushed over in a flurry of activity. Judging from his excited appearance, it seemed that Sun Wukong's arrival to cause trouble was much more interesting than eating peaches of immortality.
The person who arrived was none other than Nezha.
Bang!
With a swing of his golden cudgel, Sun Wukong sent Nezha back to where he came from.
However, he was still quite strong. Although he was knocked away, he was not injured and charged back up while shouting.
Sun Wukong had no time to waste with Nezha. Taking advantage of the fact that there weren't many immortals and gods present, he had to destroy the Peach Banquet as soon as possible.
So while he was fighting with Nezha and the other gods, he kept destroying the peaches.
The immortals and gods before him could not stop him at all; they could only watch helplessly as Sun Wukong smashed the peaches of immortality.
"What a waste!!"
"Damn monkey! I will definitely report this to the Jade Emperor and have him punish you!"
"Punish me, Old Sun?" A fierce glint flashed in Sun Wukong's eyes. He knew he had committed a grave offense, and the Heavenly Court would certainly not tolerate him. In any case, he was going to die anyway, so he might as well go all the way and wreak havoc in the Heavenly Palace! You see, he had been eyeing those elixirs and miraculous medicines in the Heavenly Court for a long time.
boom!
An indescribable, terrifying aura erupted from him, spreading wildly throughout the world.
Holding the golden cudgel, his aura changed accordingly, making him appear like an unparalleled demon, looking down upon the world.
Without any hesitation, Sun Wukong swung his staff down, unleashing a terrifying force as powerful as the waters of the Milky Way bursting its banks. The several immortals and gods present were all horrified.
They tried their best to resist, but they couldn't stop him in the slightest. Fortunately, Sun Wukong wasn't targeting them, but rather the Peach Banquet.
Boom—!
The entire white jade palace was instantly reduced to ruins, while the immortals and gods were blasted away by the terrifying aftershocks, leaving them in a sorry state.
"Hahaha... I, Old Sun, am off!"
Sun Wukong's laughter echoed through the sky, and the next moment he somersaulted down to the mortal realm.
"Quickly! Report to the Jade Emperor! This demon monkey deliberately disrupted the Peach Banquet and has already escaped to the mortal realm!"
The Peach Banquet could not be held, but the Heavenly Court was even more lively than the banquet itself, with immortals and gods rushing about and 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals gathering.
At this moment, Sun Wukong, who should have gone down to the mortal realm, appeared silently in Laozi's Tushita Palace. His previous pretense of going down to the mortal realm was to trick the immortals and gods away.
Since he knew he wouldn't be able to come to Heaven again, he planned to loot Heaven first before running away.
Meanwhile, Fang Xiu, the mastermind behind it all, began to plunder the peaches of immortality.
He took all the fragrant peaches from the peach orchard and bought them all. He had already checked them and found that the peaches growing on the trees were not contaminated.
Adhering to the principle of not wasting anything, he took all the peaches. Since the Great Sage of Balance was there to help balance the accounts, he didn't need to worry about being found out later.
After cleaning up the Peach Garden, Fang Xiu left for the Peach Banquet, intending to see how Sun Wukong was doing.
When he arrived at the Peach Banquet, he was met with chaos and devastation. The entire white jade palace had collapsed, and there wasn't even a complete table to be found, let alone the peaches.
The Great Sage Equal to Heaven is indeed trustworthy and efficient. If Fang Xiu had done it himself, he probably would have been stopped by the gods and immortals as soon as he smashed a table of peaches.
At this moment, many maids and boys were coming and going on the ruins, sighing and cleaning up the remains. Some cunning ones were scanning the ruins with their small eyes, hoping to find a complete peach.
For example, the boy with two topknots that tied up in the air who stopped Fang Xiu earlier was the one who searched the most actively.
Upon seeing him, Fang Xiu suddenly remembered that there was still one peach that hadn't been destroyed—the one on the boy's body. He had left in a hurry this time and hadn't taken the boy's peach.
With this thought in mind, he walked toward the boy. The boy, who had been bending over and actively searching on the ground, suddenly felt a darkness before his eyes as a shadow descended.
The boy raised his head, took a closer look, and his face instantly changed drastically. He was so frightened that he sat down on the ground with a thud: "Y-you... what do you want to do?!"
Fang Xiu held out his hand to him: "Take out the peaches."
The boy's expression shifted between anger and despair, his entire body radiating resistance, but in the end, he succumbed to Fang Xiu's calm gaze and obediently handed over the peaches.
He dared not refuse to hand them over; there were so many people here, and if he were discovered to be hiding peaches, it would be a serious crime.
After collecting the last contaminated peach, Fang Xiu prepared to leave.
Perhaps because the Peach Banquet was destroyed, the Queen Mother of the West did not appear at the event this time. He planned to expose her true colors.
Destroying the Peach Banquet does not completely resolve this crisis. As long as the true nature of the Queen Mother of the West is not revealed, the crisis in Heaven will not be resolved.
Today she can hold a grand peach festival, tomorrow she can hold a grand peach festival.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a limping figure out of the corner of his eye.
The figure limped away from the Peach Banquet, muttering to himself, "That damned monkey! My leg!"
