The Journey to the West's Third Translation

Emperor Yan and the Dragon King came to the Jade Emperor one after another and sued the Monkey King for making a scene in the Dragon Palace and the underworld. The Jade Emperor is going to send heavenly soldiers and generals to surrender to the Monkey King. At this time, Taibai Venus came out to give advice to the Jade Emperor, saying that it was better to give him an official position casually and trap him in the sky. The Jade Emperor agreed and ordered Wenquxing to write an imperial edict, asking Taibai Venus to invite Wukong to heaven.

Taibai Venus obeyed orders and came to Guo Huashan to read the imperial edict. The Monkey King was very happy when he heard the news, so he ordered the monkeys to look after the house. He followed Taibai Venus to Lingxiao Temple. Taibai Venus saluted the Jade Emperor and said, "Wukong is here." The Jade Emperor asked, "Who is Wukong?" Wukong listened, neither bowing nor bowing, but casually agreed: "I am." Other immortals were angry when they saw Wukong's rudeness.

The Jade Emperor had no choice but to let Wukong show the Jade Emperor the horses at the suggestion of Wu Quxing. This official position is the smallest in the sky, and it took Wukong half a month to know. In a fit of pique, he took out his golden cudgel, fought his way out of the worse gate, and returned to Huaguoshan, calling himself "the Monkey King". He also made a big flag and planted it on Mount Guo Hua.

When the Jade Emperor heard that the Monkey King had returned to Huaguoshan, he immediately ordered King Li Tian of Tota and Prince Nezha to lead the troops to capture Wukong. Unexpectedly, the pioneer, the giant spirit god and Wukong didn't fight for a few rounds, and the flower axe became two pieces. Nezha's hair stood on end with anger. He let out a cry and became a superman, holding six weapons and fighting with Wukong.

Wukong did not show weakness, but became a superhuman being. He beat Nezha with three golden cudgels for a long time, but it was still a tie. Wukong secretly pulled a hair from his head and became himself. He hit Nezha, but he went around behind Nezha and hit him with a stick. Nezha dodged and was shot in the left arm. He was too painful to fight back, so he turned and ran.
