Golden List Live: I Really Can't Hide Anymore!

Chapter 269: Laozi's Punishment!

After hearing Sun Wukong's explanation, the Bull Demon King obviously couldn't accept it. More than one thing about him had already appeared on the screen. In the previous image, it was about his son, who had fought Sun Wukong and managed to gain the upper hand, defeating him and forcing him to flee in humiliation.

However, for the Bull Demon King, the situation was the opposite. While Sun Wukong had stalemated with him, he had somehow managed to call in two reinforcements, making it impossible for him to continue fighting back. In the end, he had no choice but to be captured.

The Bull Demon King didn't want such things to happen, and to make matters worse, he was sent to the Western Paradise, where he had no idea what punishment awaited him. Just thinking about it sent a chill down his spine. He grew even more furious with Sun Wukong and paid no attention to anything he had to say.

[Bull Demon King]: You lying monkey! You're still trying to fool me even now. What are you plotting? Waiting for the right time to settle things between us?

[Sun Wukong]: Believe what you want. I can't explain this to you. It's all about future events, and even I don't know why it happened. I'm just as curious as you are. But if you think you can blame me for all this, that's not going to work!

[Bull Demon King]: In that image, you took me to Princess Iron Fan to get the Banana Leaf Fan. That's quite the valuable treasure!

[Sun Wukong]: You're spouting nonsense again! That fan isn't some precious treasure. It's not stronger than my Ruyi Jingu Bang. It might have some use, but not enough to be worth all this trouble!

Meanwhile, the external discussions were no less intense than the argument between the two of them. Everyone was curious about what had really happened.

[Guanyin Bodhisattva]: The battle between Sun Wukong and the Bull Demon King was one-sided in the end. It seems their bond as sworn brothers isn't as strong as it appeared.

Since the Journey to the West hadn't started yet, even Guanyin couldn't have foreseen that this was part of the 81 tribulations. Maybe she could detect something was off, but at this point, it was unclear.

[Fuxi]: There must be a bigger reason behind this. It's too exaggerated to cause such a commotion over a small Banana Leaf Fan!

[Bai Ze]: Sun Wukong and the Bull Demon King are sworn brothers. What could drive them apart so drastically, to the point they would fight each other? Just over a fan? I don't believe it!

[Ancestor Minghe]: The Banana Leaf Fan is not a highly valuable treasure; it's simply rare. Its power is minimal, only capable of blowing people away without causing serious harm. It doesn't make sense for Sun Wukong to risk so much for it.

[Taiyi Zhenren]: Sun Wukong is always eager to fight, but the Banana Leaf Fan wouldn't increase his battle strength. Even if he took it, what would he gain? And don't forget, Li Jing and Nezha were there. They wouldn't help Sun Wukong for no reason!

The scenes broadcast on the Golden List were full of mysteries, making it hard to understand. The more the experts analyzed the situation, the more confused they became, unable to settle on a clear conclusion.

For the main characters in these images, they were equally bewildered.

[Princess Iron Fan]: I've had that Banana Leaf Fan for a long time, and no one's ever coveted it before. Sun Wukong's strength is such that he wouldn't care about such a treasure. It's useless to him!

[Li Jing]: How did Sun Wukong manage to get us involved? What could make us help him out?

[Nezha]: I don't know either. This whole scene is too chaotic. The Bull Demon King is angrier than anyone else, and it's clear this is a deep issue that won't be resolved anytime soon.

The Bull Demon King was now completely enraged. The table in front of him had already been smashed into pieces, and his black fur stood on end, his violent power surging uncontrollably from his body. If this weren't his own cave, he would have taken action right then and there.

The two broadcast scenes had left him feeling utterly miserable. He had treated Sun Wukong well as a sworn brother, only for things to turn out like this.

First, Sun Wukong blocked his son and fought him, though fortunately, his son had managed to drive Sun Wukong away without suffering any harm. But then Sun Wukong had turned his attention to the Bull Demon King himself, calling in help to defeat him and sending him to the Western Paradise.

And to top it all off, his wife, Princess Iron Fan, had her prized Banana Leaf Fan stolen. The fan might not mean much to the Bull Demon King, but it was incredibly important to her, and she had never experienced something like this—having such an important treasure taken from her.

If Sun Wukong appeared in front of the Bull Demon King now, they would undoubtedly start fighting, and no amount of persuasion from others could stop them.

[Sun Wukong]: I don't know why this happened, but if you consider me your sworn brother, then trust me. As for what happens in the future, we'll just have to wait and see. There's no need to rush things!

Despite Sun Wukong's simple-mindedness, he was keenly aware that if something like this were to happen, there must be a crucial reason behind it. Otherwise, given his nature, he would never have turned against the Bull Demon King.

It was clear to him that the Bull Demon King's intense reaction and hostility must be due to some misunderstanding.

However, the Bull Demon King's anger wasn't something that could be easily calmed. No matter how logical Sun Wukong's words were, he wasn't willing to listen at this moment.

[Ancestor Minghe]: This isn't important. Your relationship hasn't deteriorated that much yet. In the future, just be careful to maintain it and avoid any major conflicts.

[Nezha]: I don't believe that Sun Wukong's abilities would create such a big problem. There must be some issue he couldn't solve on his own, forcing him to approach the Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan for help. After all, the whole scene revolves around that fan!

At this point, everyone realized that the focus of the scene wasn't so much on Sun Wukong but that Laozi was about to receive a punishment.
