A Mix-Up in the Heavenly Court

Sun Wukong stated his requirements for what he wanted to hear.

Okay, I understand. After saying that, Nezha began to tell Sun Wukong the kind of story he wanted to hear.

"A year after you were suppressed, the Jade Emperor held a banquet, at which he invited Jade Emperor Fairy Chang'e from the Palace of Guanghan, to perform a dance for all the immortals present."

After Fairy Chang'e finished her dance, everyone applauded and cheered. However, Fairy Chang'e left the banquet afterward, but one of the guests got drunk.

"That guest was Marshal Tianpeng, who commanded 300,000 naval troops in the Heavenly River. This guy has liked Chang'e for a long time, and he tries to win her over whenever he gets the chance, but unfortunately, she completely ignores him."

"Because he was the leader of the 300,000-strong navy, he couldn't leave the Heavenly River at will, and the Fairy Chang'e lived in the Palace of Guanghan on the moon and didn't come out often."

"The two of them rarely had a chance to meet, so at this banquet, Marshal Tianpeng, emboldened by the alcohol, went to confess his love to the Fairy Chang'e."

Although Marshal Tianpeng was drunk, he knew exactly what he was doing. After calling out Chang'e, he launched a verbal offensive, trying to win her over.

"It seems that Chang'e has become very cold and indifferent because she has lived in the Palace of Guanghan for too long."

"After hearing Marshal Tianpeng's words, she remained unmoved, apologized, and rejected Marshal Tianpeng affections."

"They didn't have any physical contact with each other at all during their conversation, not even holding hands."

"However, someone witnessed all of this and reported it to the Jade Emperor, saying that Marshal Tianpeng secretly approached Chang'e after the banquet and made advances towards her."

"After hearing that person's report, the Jade Emperor was furious. The day after the banquet, he summoned Marshal Tianpeng and punished him."

"However, Marshal Tianpeng argued back, claiming he was being framed and demanding that Chang'e be brought in for a confrontation to prove his innocence."

"However, the Jade Emperor was even angrier after hearing his words, and directly changed the previous punishment, banishing him to the mortal realm. It is said that he was even reincarnated as a pig. The current Marshal Tianpeng is probably a wild boar spirit in some mountain."

After Nezha finished speaking, he immediately burst out laughing. The dignified commander-in-chief of 300,000 naval troops was reborn as a pig just because someone reported him for harassing the Fairy Chang'e. Marshal Tianpeng is truly pitiful.

"Marshal Tianpeng actually reincarnated as a pig! Hmm, that's awesome! Back when I first arrived in Heavenly Court and became the Keeper of the Keeper of the Heavenly Horses, the first time I saw him, that kid was so arrogant. He wouldn't even look people in the eye, looking down on everyone with his nostrils practically sticking up to the sky."

"I never imagined he would end up like this. Life is truly unpredictable."

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong couldn't help but laugh, as he recalled the time when Marshal Tianpeng looked down on him.

Although he has been suppressed, Marshal Tianpeng's current situation is not as good as his own.

"Hey, is there anything else funny about Nezha? Tell me another one."

After laughing, Sun Wukong still felt a little unsatisfied and wanted to hear some other funny stories.

"Oh, and listen to this too."

"The Jade Emperor has a personal bodyguard. Every time he needs to cut the curtain when he enters or leaves the palace, this bodyguard does it. So, over time, everyone started calling this bodyguard the 'Curtain-Raising General.'"

However, when this guard was helping the Jade Emperor remove the curtain, he accidentally knocked off the jeweled tassels of the Jade Emperor's crown.

"After dropping it, he quickly picked it up, patted it off, rubbed it on his clothes, blew on it a few times, and then placed it on the Jade Emperor's head as if nothing had happened."

"The whole sequence of actions was as casual as wiping something clean after it's been knocked down and then putting it back on the table. The Jade Emperor's face turned so black it was almost dripping ink. When the other maids or immortals around saw this, they either quickly left the area."

"Either he pinched himself hard to suppress his laughter, but the Curtain-Raising General didn't notice anything and continued to dutifully guard the Jade Emperor."

"This Curtain-Raising General been in power for quite a long time, and he hasn't made any other mistakes during that time. The Jade Emperor has gritted his teeth and tolerated this matter."

"However, when he met the Queen Mother, this Curtain-Raising General accidentally broke the Queen Mother Niangniang's crystal cup while rolling up the beaded curtain. This offended not only the Jade Emperor but also the Queen Mother Niangniang."

"In a fit of anger, the Jade Emperor banished him to the mortal realm. This Curtain-Raising General was originally a demon who attained immortality and ascended to the Heavenly Court, but now he has been banished to the mortal realm and can only continue being a demon."

Nezha then told Sun Wukong another interesting story he knew.

"Although I sympathize with the Curtain-Raising General's plight, I just want to say that the Jade Emperor deserved it. I only regret that I didn't see the Jade Emperor's expression at the time, otherwise I would definitely have laughed out loud."

Is there anything else?

After commenting on Nezha had said, Sun Wukong asked Nezha if there were any similar incidents.

Yes, yes.

You've probably heard of Gonggong, the water god, and Zhurong, the fire god, right?

"At a banquet not long ago, these two guys made a fool of themselves."

"The two of them got into an argument at the banquet for some unknown reason, and then they started fighting. At first, neither of them used any Law Power."

"One was pulling the other's beard, the other was banging their noses together, and gradually the tempers flared up, and they started using all sorts of moves, from groin kicks to scooping the moon from the sea, monkey stealing peaches, Heihu stabbing hearts."

"In the end, both of them used their Law Powers. The water god Gonggong took out his magic Law Treasure and threw water at the fire god Zhurong. The fire god Zhurong was not to be outdone, and faced with the water column thrown by the water god Gonggong, he directly spewed fire to deal with it. Guess what happened?"

"As soon as their attacks collided, a strong reaction occurred, and the entire banquet hall was filled with warm steam."

"Some divine alliances used Law Technique to try to blow these away, but their speed was no match for the speed at which these two guys created them."

The small gap that had just been cleared was instantly filled by the water vapor created by these two guys, until they had exhausted all their Law Power.
