Sun Wukong thought about it, and indeed, his current identity was quite awkward.
Previously, he had wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace. Even though he couldn't break into the Lingxiao Hall, he had smashed the Southern Gate to bits. Later, with Guanyin Bodhisattva vouching for him, he had been tasked with escorting Tang Sanzang to retrieve scriptures from India, thus exempting him from the grudges on either side. However, he had now gone astray, escorting a fake Tang Sanzang.
Therefore, his relationship with the Heavenly Palace was now very delicate.
Thinking of this, Sun Wukong somewhat regretted taking on this task, but he had already boasted enough, and Tang Sanzang had already taken the gold of Fengxian County as his own, and had even planned to buy a brothel. If he were to back out now, the first to object would be the monk.
