Although Tianzhu Country is near the West, it is nominally under the control of the Heavenly Court, which governs the Three Realms. Sun Wukong didn't know who decided this, but if something happened, he'd definitely head to the Heavenly Court first.
He wandered around the Heavenly Court for half a day and, apart from the patrolling Heavenly Soldiers, didn't see a single Immortal.
???
Could it be that the Heavenly Court has moved?
In fact, it hadn't. The Immortals had been dispatched by the Jade Emperor to the Chaos Battlefield to enhance their overall abilities.
Those remaining were working hard. Who had the time to idle around? That's why the vast Heavenly Court looked so empty.
The Monkey strolled around twice but ultimately didn't go to find the Jade Emperor. He felt that this Jade Emperor was far inferior to his senior brother; once he returned, everyone in the Heavenly Court was gone. Truly unreliable.
