Chapter 28: Outsmarting Yourself, Inviting You to Heaven
This wailing cry greatly startled the Immortal Officers and Divine Generals in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall and piqued their curiosity immensely.
Although the dragon race had long been in decline, Ao Guang was after all a Golden Immortal and held the position of a Dragon God, so how could he not control his emotions?
What had happened to bring him to such a state?
Under the gaze of many eyes, Ao Guang, lying on the ground, tearfully stated, "Your Majesty, some time ago, a demon monkey from Fruit Mountain came to my Dragon Palace to borrow weapons,
this demon is a Daluo Golden Immortal, and I could not refuse him, so I lent him the Divine Treasure Iron Rod along with the Purple Gold Crown, Golden Armor, and Cloud-Stepping Boots; he even left an IOU."
Speaking thus, Ao Guang took out the IOU and held it up high.
The Jade Emperor and all the Immortal Officers and Divine Generals could see clearly, it was signed at the end: "Sun Wukong, the Handsome Monkey King of Fruit Mountain left his mark, let heaven and earth bear witness."
Ao Guang continued his complaint, "Unexpectedly, this demon denied everything afterwards, claiming I was reluctant and uncooperative when I lent him the weapons,
he showed off his Divine Skills, and with the Divine Treasure Iron Rod from my Eastern Sea, he destroyed the Crystal Palace, stole the treasures accumulated over many years in my Eastern Sea, and even killed and injured countless members of my Eastern Sea Dragon and Sea Tribes; the other Sea Dragon Kings and I were also severely injured by him.
Your Majesty, today I implore you to decree justice, to plea for heavenly soldiers to subdue this evil creature, so that the seas may be tranquil and the lower realms peaceful!"
