When they came back with the two junior brothers, they were met by none other than the waiting Bull Demon King.
Previously, they had no way to deal with the Palm Leaf Fan, and now with the addition of a big brother on the other side, how could they possibly fight?
Nezha cheerfully carried the Palm Leaf Fan out of the cave, looked at the expressionless Sun Wukong, and said, "Old Seven, you monkey have no sense of etiquette."
After speaking, with a wave of the fan, the three brothers were sent flying again.
Estimating the situation, the three brothers were likely sent to the heavens, saving the trouble of calling for backup.
Actually, Nezha also had a dream, which was to wreak havoc in the Heaven Palace once, feeling as if his Immortal Life wasn't complete without it.
However, the world is unpredictable. In blending harmony and discord, Nezha became the key figure of the Heavenly Court. He couldn't very well smash his own house, could he?
Wouldn't that be crazy?
Nezha felt the opportunity had arrived. He could use the excuse of Sun Wukong calling for backup to have a great time.
Besides, what did the Bull Demon King have to do with Nezha anyway?
Isn't life like a grand cosplay?
Back in the cave, Lady Rashamon approached, clinging to Nezha, asking with concern, "Oh my, Old Niu, were you hurt by the monkey?"
Nezha: ...
How could I be hurt by a monkey? This Iron Fan was just taking advantage!
He shared his thoughts with Iron Fan, who had no notion that this was wrong and was completely filled with thoughts of: Wow! So handsome, so commanding!
"The monkey's reinforcements will arrive soon, you should return to Lingshan."
Iron Fan was a bit reluctant. Why wasn't she included in the fun?
Nezha used this opportunity to improvise. Causing havoc in the Heavenly Court wasn't exactly a good thing. He coaxed Iron Fan a bit, and Princess Iron Fan obediently returned, helpless in the giggle of a lovestruck girl? Or was it a girl?
Intelligence at a negative level.
...
Elsewhere, using a tailwind ride, the brothers arrived at the Heavenly Court. With little to say, they went straight for assistance, and Sun Wukong realized that none of the Ox Demons along the way were to be trifled with.
Taking Bajie and Sha Wujing to seek help in the Palace of the Polestar, they were introduced to Nezha, although this Nezha was merely a projection. As long as no hands were dealt, no one could tell.
"Wukong, why are you here again?"
Sun Wukong sighed, realizing that he hadn't encountered as many setbacks during his notorious havoc in the Heaven Palace as he had on this journey to fetch scriptures from Lingshan.
He explained the situation at Flame Mountain, to which Nezha pretended to nod understandingly and then pulled out a Wind Stabilizing Pearl from his sleeve.
The method of crafting the Wind Stabilizing Pearl wasn't particularly rare, at least not to Nezha. It mainly depended on the materials, techniques, and nurturing time used in crafting. This one, crafted by Nezha, was much higher in quality compared to the one by Ling Ji Bodhisattva.
"Zixiao Primordial Lord, this monkey has encountered trouble again, so take ten thousand Heavenly Soldiers and handle it."
The Wind Stabilizing Pearl landed in Deng Chanyu's hand.
Deng Chanyu, dressed in armor, saluted and responded, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Sun Wukong still felt uneasy and quickly said, "Uh, Your Majesty, my sworn brother the Bull Demon King's mana is no weaker than mine. I think we should bring a few more people!"
Zhu Bajie, with an ambiguous expression, said, "Yes, yes, that Bull Demon King sent Brother Monkey flying with a single strike. I think we should bring some more people!"
Sun Wukong's face flushed with embarrassment. "You fool, why do you have to blurt everything out?"
"Hehe, Marshal, it's not that I look down on you, it's just that the Bull Demon King is extraordinarily strong."
Deng Chanyu struggled to suppress her laughter; how could the Bull Demon King not be powerful? He was just a disguise by the one before her.
"I understand, I understand. If even the Great Saint isn't his match, he must be formidable indeed."
"Your Majesty, in that case, shall we have the Three Altars Sea Meeting God, along with the Twenty-eight Star Constellations and the Giant Spirit General accompany me, plus another forty thousand Heavenly Soldiers, bringing a total of fifty thousand on the expedition?"
Nezha didn't mind; the larger the setup, the more entertaining it was.
"Approved."
Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie felt that with this many, things were in the bag. Previously, even a single Star Lord Angri easily handled the Scorpion Demoness; how could the Bull Demon King stand a chance against the entire Twenty-eight Star Constellations?
Also, Lei Zhenzi was there, and despite repeated losses, his combat strength wasn't weak.
Deng Chanyu, after organizing her troops, led the Giant Spirit General, said to conquer the Great Demon Yin Zhuo King, Lei Zhenzi, and the hastily assembled Twenty-eight Star Constellations to Cuiyun Mountain with Sun Wukong.
Dark clouds covered the sky amid thunder and lightning, and Sun Wukong boldly stepped forward to challenge. Inside, Nezha had been waiting a long time, carrying the Palm Leaf Fan as he emerged.
"Monkey, is this how you treat your brother, by bringing outsiders to challenge your big brother?"
Sun Wukong, knowing he wasn't doing the right thing, could only reply cautiously, "Big brother, I'm just borrowing the Palm Leaf Fan to extinguish the fires of Flame Mountain, and I'll return it naturally after that."
The Bull Demon King, disguised by Nezha, suppressed his excitement and feigned anger, saying, "This is pushing the Bull too far; I, Old Niu, am not to be trifled with!"
He then feigned anger while wildly waving the Palm Leaf Fan.
At that moment, Deng Chanyu timely activated the Wind Stabilizing Pearl, the green spirit light holding back the fierce wind, leaving Sun Wukong and his companions unharmed.
Sun Wukong smiled smugly.
"Brother Niu, your fan doesn't seem to work anymore!"
Nezha feigned surprise as he looked at the fan and the sky, appearing to tremble with rage.
"So what if the fan doesn't work? My staff might still be formidable!"
He then summoned the Iron Rod and swung it fiercely at Sun Wukong.
Seeing the Bull Demon King's angry blow, and knowing the Bull Demon King's capabilities, Sun Wukong dared not let Bajie or Sha Wujing take it; he called his Jingu Bang to face it.
The two staffs clashed with a boom, and Sun Wukong felt a tremendous force surging through his body, sending him flying with staff in hand, creating a long trench on the ground where he landed.
The stunned Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing, who were about to join the fight, froze in disbelief, trembling all over.
Nezha sneered, "Just the two of you, and you want to borrow my Palm Leaf Fan?"
Sha Wujing, already slow-witted, was now speechless with fear, while Zhu Bajie, having seen more, tried to explain despite his fright, "Brother Niu, it's a misunderstanding, it's all just a miscon..."
Bang, bang!
With two strikes, Nezha knocked out Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing. After dealing with Sun Wukong and his companions, Nezha raised his staff towards the Heavenly Soldiers above and shouted, "Come on, I'm not afraid of you!"
Deng Chanyu: ...
She had known Nezha for a long time and understood too well his impulsive and spontaneous nature, knowing he wouldn't follow the script now.
But what could she do? Of course, cooperate!
After all, a woman should indulge her man.
"Giant Spirit General, listen to my command! This demon is exceedingly arrogant; I now command you to capture him and uphold the prestige of the Heavenly Court!"
Giant Spirit General: Huh? You want me to take down the Bull Demon King?
