Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#2122 - Seeking help from heaven again

Li Jing called Water Virtue Star Lord, Fire Virtue Star Lord, and the Wind Hag back to the formation. Seeing this, Guanyin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In reality, a third of Jinping Prefecture City had already been destroyed, and the entire city was in a state of chaos.

Many of Jinping Prefecture's residents had fled outside the city, and some had even given up on Jinping Prefecture and begun to relocate to other places.

After Li Jing withdrew his troops, he said to Guanyin Bodhisattva.

"Since Guanyin Bodhisattva and the people of the Western Heaven do not welcome us to subdue demons here, and the three demons are very powerful, beyond our ability to subdue, then we shall withdraw."

Watching Li Jing swagger away with the Heavenly Court army, Guanyin cursed him a thousand times, ten thousand times in her heart.

Jinping Prefecture City was barely preserved, but the three demons were still causing trouble in the city, and the people of the Western Heaven were still unable to cope with it.

Guanyin had no choice but to find Tang Sanzang and his disciples again, asking them to continue to find ways to subdue the three demons.

"Tang Sanzang, subduing the three demons is your task, you must find a way."

"Guanyin Bodhisattva, those three demons are really powerful, we are no match for them," Tang Sanzang complained to Guanyin, sighing and shaking his head.

"Didn't I tell you to invite the Four Constellation Lords of the Twenty-Eight Constellations? You can continue to seek help from the Heavenly Court."

Guanyin said, looking at Sun Wukong, as the matter of seeking help from the Heavenly Court still required Sun Wukong to do it.

"Guanyin Bodhisattva, it's not that I don't want to seek help, but all the gods of the Heavenly Court must obey the Jade Emperor's arrangements, and you can't just invite whoever you want."

Sun Wukong said to Guanyin in annoyance.

Seeing that Tang Sanzang and his disciples had such a negative attitude towards subduing the three demons, Guanyin thought for a moment and could only offer them incentives.

After all, the lighthouse defense of Jinping Prefecture City had failed. If the three demons were allowed to continue causing trouble in the city, it would be impossible to repel the demon race.

"If you can subdue the three demons, I will apply to the Buddha for some benefits for you."

Guanyin said to Tang Sanzang and his disciples.

"Guanyin Bodhisattva, we know your tricks of drawing big cakes, so give us the benefits first," Zhu Bajie directly demanded of Guanyin.

"Alright, I will give you ten Western Heaven Elixirs and one Western Heaven Mantra magic weapon for each of you, is that alright?"

Guanyin took out the elixirs and magic weapons she had with her and gave them to Tang Sanzang and his disciples.

However, these were her private collection, and taking them out made her feel heartache.

"Since the Bodhisattva is so generous, then I, Old Sun, will make another trip to the Heavenly Court, but how the Heavenly Court arranges it is not something I, Old Sun, can control."

Sun Wukong emphasized to Guanyin.

After saying that, Sun Wukong rode on his somersault cloud and went to the Heavenly Court again.

At this time, in the High Heaven Hall of the Heavenly Court, Chu Hao and the Jade Emperor were discussing the next step of their plan.

Chu Hao and the Jade Emperor had seen the battle between Water Virtue Star Lord, Fire Virtue Star Lord, and the Wind Hag and the three demons in Jinping Prefecture from the High Heaven Hall.

"It seems that the Western Heaven really values Jinping Prefecture City, and they are doing their best to maintain it," the Jade Emperor said, seeing Guanyin ordering many Buddhas of the Western Heaven to protect the city with all their might.

"The Western Heaven has adopted such a vicious method to create a prosperous scene in Jinping Prefecture City. If their conspiracy succeeds, who knows how many such sinful places there will be in the future," Chu Hao reminded the Jade Emperor, saying that the Western Heaven regarded Jinping Prefecture City as a pilot project and a signboard, which was why they valued it.

"Well, in that case, we will send more people!"

The Jade Emperor also nodded thoughtfully. He was also extremely indignant at the Western Heaven.

After a while, Sun Wukong came to the High Heaven Hall again and asked the Jade Emperor for help again.

"Jade Emperor, Water Virtue Star Lord and the others did not subdue the three demons, please send other capable generals to go with me to subdue the demons."

The Jade Emperor would naturally not refuse Sun Wukong's request.

"It seems that those three demons do have some strength. Wukong, don't worry, this time I will definitely send the elite of the Heavenly Court to go with you.

Giant Spirit God, Five Directional Warriors, Golden Armor Divine Generals…"

The Jade Emperor began to call out troops and generals. This time, the Jade Emperor called out a lot of troops and generals, with as many as hundreds of generals.

However, among these hundreds of generals, there were still no Four Constellation Lords, which was of course intentional by the Jade Emperor.

"I will send you to lead 30,000 heavenly soldiers to go to Jinping Prefecture with Wukong to subdue the three demons. You must all do your best to assist him," the Jade Emperor ordered the Giant Spirit God and the Five Directional Warriors.

"Yes!"

Many Heavenly Court generals responded.

"Jade Emperor, according to Guanyin, only the Four Constellation Lords can subdue the three demons, and she specifically instructed us to invite them to go," Sun Wukong said to the Jade Emperor. Of course, Sun Wukong had to say this, but whether he listened or not depended on the Jade Emperor.

"Wukong, all the gods in my Heavenly Court are experts in subduing demons and eliminating evil. Guanyin is just a person from the Western Heaven, how can she know the skills of my Heavenly Court generals?

The Four Constellation Lords still have important matters in the Heavenly Court. This time, I have sent you hundreds of generals. Even if we fight the three demons with numbers, it will be enough to subdue them," the Jade Emperor said to Sun Wukong.

"Then let's do as the Jade Emperor says."

Sun Wukong naturally did not say much. He also knew that Chu Hao had already arranged everything.

Watching Sun Wukong lead hundreds of Heavenly Court generals away, the Jade Emperor's face showed a smile.

"This time, I don't believe Guanyin and the others can still protect Jinping Prefecture. I will make sure that not a single brick or tile is left in Jinping Prefecture."

"The Jade Emperor's arrangement this time is enough to make that Guanyin half-dead with anger," Chu Hao also said with a smile. This was also his idea.

The Jade Emperor and Chu Hao were naturally waiting in the Heavenly Court to watch the show, while Sun Wukong led hundreds of heavenly generals and 30,000 heavenly soldiers back to Jinping Prefecture.

At this time, Jinping Prefecture was still in a state of chaos, with only two-thirds of the city remaining, and the three demons were constantly destroying it.

The people inside had already fled outside the city, and only some personnel from the Western Heaven and the demon race were still confronting each other in the city.

"I, Old Sun, am back," Sun Wukong shouted to Tang Sanzang and his disciples, as well as Guanyin and the others, upon returning.

Seeing the hundreds of heavenly generals behind Sun Wukong, Guanyin couldn't help but widen her eyes, and her breathing became a little rapid.

"What on earth is the Jade Emperor doing? Why did he send them here?"
