Chapter 058: Heavenly King Frustrated and Withdraws the Army

It was said that Wukong and Nezha were locked in a fierce battle atop Flower-Fruit Mountain, when unexpectedly, True Man Taiyi appeared mid-skirmish and rescued Nezha.

Wukong had seen the multitude of magical treasures on Nezha's person, and being someone who never thought one could have too many treasures, Wukong naturally harbored thoughts of killing for treasure. He intended to slay Nezha and claim the treasures for himself. Had True Man Taiyi not intervened, Wukong's staff could have reduced Nezha to a pile of flesh, and all those treasures would have become ownerless artifacts, easily pocketed and refined for his own use.

A series of sighs filled Wukong's heart; True Man Taiyi's timing couldn't have been worse!

True Man Taiyi, holding Nezha, stood in the air and said with a smile, "Great Saint, this unwelcome visit of mine is quite abrupt, I hope the Great Saint can forgive me."
