Chapter 268: A Chaotic Situation!
In the livestream, the Bull Demon King appeared first, followed by Sun Wukong, who wasn't alone. A pig demon with a big, round belly and large ears stood beside him—this was none other than Zhu Bajie. However, none of the onlookers recognized him, as Zhu Bajie still held the title of Marshal Canopy in the Heavenly Court at this time, living in luxury.
There was clear tension between Sun Wukong and the Bull Demon King; both were visibly angry, as if they had been quarreling about something important. After a brief exchange, neither side could convince the other, and they began to fight.
The Bull Demon King initially engaged in combat with Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie. However, he was no match for the two. In desperation, he transformed into his original form—a massive bull covered in black fur. This shift immediately turned the tide in his favor. While Sun Wukong could still manage to fight back, Zhu Bajie was of little help. His clumsiness became a liability, and he could barely hold his ground against the Bull Demon King's overwhelming strength.
Zhu Bajie's Nine-Tooth Rake landed on the Bull Demon King's body like a gentle scratch, unable to cause any significant damage. The two sides continued to struggle for a long time, locked in a stalemate, neither willing to back down. Both parties were determined to resolve the conflict, though the exact reason for the fight remained unclear.
As the battle dragged on, two more figures appeared on the scene—Nezha and his father, Li Jing. Their arrival wasn't a surprise; it seemed they were well aware of the ongoing conflict. They had come specifically to deal with the situation.
Joining forces with Sun Wukong, Nezha and Li Jing increased the pressure on the Bull Demon King. Overwhelmed, the Bull Demon King could not keep up with the combined assault. At this point, Zhu Bajie seized the opportunity and re-entered the fray. With all four opponents attacking him at once, the Bull Demon King was quickly defeated, his true form left battered and bloodied.
Though Sun Wukong was the Bull Demon King's sworn brother, he wasn't willing to deliver a killing blow. Seeing that his opponent was powerless to continue the fight, Sun Wukong called for a halt and captured him.
It was clear they had a specific goal in mind. Sun Wukong, known for his rebellious nature against the Heavenly Court, had somehow formed an alliance with Li Jing and Nezha, both loyal generals of the Heavenly Court. This implied that something serious was at stake, something so important that Sun Wukong had changed his usual defiant stance.
The scene shifted to a mountain cave, a place the Bull Demon King knew all too well—it was the residence of Princess Iron Fan. Sun Wukong brought the Bull Demon King to her, clearly seeking something from her. After some negotiation, Princess Iron Fan, with great reluctance and sorrow, pulled a small fan from her mouth and handed it to Sun Wukong. This was the prized Banana Leaf Fan.
With the fan in hand, the matter didn't end there. The Bull Demon King wasn't immediately freed but was instead escorted away by Li Jing and Nezha.
The Bull Demon King, who was watching the livestream, broke into a cold sweat. He feared that his fate would be similar to that of the Jing River Dragon King—executed and paraded by the Heavenly Court's soldiers. After all, both Nezha and Li Jing were key figures in the Heavenly Court, and it seemed likely.
However, the scene did not unfold as he feared. Instead of being taken to the Heavenly Court, the Bull Demon King was brought westward, towards the Western Paradise. Despite his desperate struggles, he couldn't break free and was ultimately forced inside.
The livestream finally ended here, but it had delivered an astonishing amount of information. The main characters in the scene reacted in various ways. The Bull Demon King was seething with rage. His face was flushed with anger as he processed the implications of the events—his wife being involved, the fight with Sun Wukong, and his eventual fate in the Western Paradise.
Sun Wukong was utterly shocked. He couldn't understand why he would fight his sworn brother, the Bull Demon King, or who the pig demon was beside him. He also couldn't comprehend why Li Jing and Nezha would help him, given his bitter rivalry with the Heavenly Court. Everything seemed inexplicable.
Li Jing and Nezha were equally perplexed. They never expected they would aid Sun Wukong, knowing full well the hostility between him and the Heavenly Court. The fact that they did suggested that something monumental had happened.
Meanwhile, Marshal Canopy, still residing in the Heavenly Court, remained unaware that the pig demon shown in the scene was none other than his future self.
The viewers of the livestream were left baffled. They knew that Sun Wukong would eventually escape from the Five Elements Mountain, but what came next was completely unexpected. The once rebellious Sun Wukong seemed to be working with the Heavenly Court's generals, targeting the Bull Demon King and even taking Princess Iron Fan's Banana Leaf Fan.
As the audience processed these revelations, they also realized that the world had become far from peaceful. Chaos was brewing.
The Bull Demon King, furious and confused, was the first to confront Sun Wukong in the livestream:
Bull Demon King: "Sun Wukong, you damn monkey! What in the world did you do? How dare you fight me, go after my wife, and send me off to the Western Paradise!"
Everyone knew a good show was about to unfold, while Sun Wukong was left nervously trying to explain himself:
Sun Wukong: "I have no idea why this happened! This is all from the future, and I don't understand any of it. You know my nature—I'd never turn against you! There must be some reason that forced us into this fight. Otherwise, it's impossible to imagine!"
