Sun Wukong's face turned dark; it was actually that bastard Ge Xuan's doing. Sun Wukong had been wondering why Zhang Daoling was so loyal to the Jade Emperor?
Now he finally understood the situation—it was Ge Xuan causing trouble behind the scenes.
Ge Xuan was very ambitious, and he knew clearly that in terms of cultivation or reputation, he was not as good as Zhang Daoling.
Once Zhang Daoling joined the Heavenly Court, Ge Xuan's status would naturally be diminished.
Therefore, he said such things to prevent Zhang Daoling from entering the Heavenly Court.
Sun Wukong, with a dark face, recounted the reasons behind all this.
Zhang Daoling was stunned, not expecting such a situation.
He sighed and said, "Daoist friend Ge Xuan is indeed too attached to fame and fortune. As Heavenly Masters of the Daoist Sect, our purpose is to protect the common people. As for fame and fortune, to us, they are just fleeting clouds. I've never cared about them."
