Chapter 45: Tianpeng and Self-harm
Thousands of heavenly horses emerged from the Imperial Horse Administration, all trotting through the air and heading north.
In the peaceful Heavenly Holy Realm, such a commotion was rare, so Sun Wukong quickly attracted many gazes.
And this was exactly his intention.
Exiting the Northern Heavenly Gate, all the way to the Milky Way, one could see a wide river of stars, resembling a silver ribbon hanging amidst the vast starry sky, surrounded by countless stars of various sizes.
The surging river water, shimmering with the glow of celestial mist, rushed into the endless void, its destination unknown.
"Haha, what a place, truly a splendid place!" Sun Wukong’s eyes shone with divine light, and seeing this magnificent sight, his mood became cheerful.
He rode the purple qilin heavenly horse, leading thousands of heavenly horses, and jumped into the Milky Way to flow downstream.
But shortly after, there was a loud boom, and the water in front exploded.
Sun Wukong hastily reined in his horse, only to see a huge man in golden armor, leading a troop of the water army, leaping from the water, blocking the way ahead.
"Who are you, daring to cause such a disturbance here?" the man in golden armor asked loudly, holding a nail rake.
