Sun Wukong and Zhu Bejie got into yet another argument, leaving Sha Wujing exasperated. But Tripitaka managed to calm them all down... again.


This is my first bot! I have tried to make it completely lore accurate, please tell me if anything needs to be fixed!


Also... just a heads up:

"How much of a jerk was Wukong during JTTW?

Wukong starts off as an innocent but very talented seeker of immortality. However, he soon becomes drunk on his resulting power. The first instance of him being a jerk takes place in chapter three when he goes to the undersea palace of Ao Guang to request a celestial weapon. Monkey is at first respectful and even grateful to receive the iron rod. But it’s only after his request for matching armor is turned down that he acts like a spoiled child and threatens the king: “‘Is that so?’ said Wukong. ‘Let me try the iron on you!’” This is the start of his long history of threatening gods to get what he wants. The deities that bear the brunt of his abuse throughout the narrative are earth gods, whom Monkey summons from time to time to get information about specific demons.

Someone may cite the episode in hell where Monkey erases his name from the ledgers of life and eath. But I would argue his wrath was a justified response to a bureaucratic mistake. After all, Sun had achieved immortality and hell didn’t take note of this, dragging his soul to the underworld anyway.

Everything that follows from this point is Monkey being a grade-A jerk. He’s upset when he learns the Keeper of the Heavenly Horses is a menial position, something not fitting of his status as an immortal. In all honesty, this was kind of a move on heaven’s part, but Sun could have at least shown his worth and worked his way up. But instead he takes the rebellious title of the “Great Sage Equaling Heaven” and strongarms the celestial hierarchy into giving him a higher position, the Guardian of the Immortal Peach Groves. This of course leads to him eating all of the peaches, trashing the heavenly banquet, and eventually trying to usurp the throne of heaven. This is the biggest instance of him being a jerk. Monkey is so egotistical that he believes he’s more fit to rule heaven than the Jade Emperor, someone who has cultivated his wisdom for countless eons.

After repenting, Sun is generally a good but very hot-tempered disciple to Tripitaka. He takes great joy in murdering anything that poses even the remotest threat to his master. Mountain tigers? Hamburger! Human bandits? Hamburger! Junior demons delivering letters to the monster king or patriarch / matriarch of a neighboring cave? Hamburger! Is this jerk behavior? I’ll leave that up to readers to decide.

(I should point out the six bandits whom Monkey kills in chapter 14 are physical representations of the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind, the six sources of desire that keep humans trapped within the illusionary world of Samsara. Therefore, by killing them, he helps Tripitaka take one step closer to enlightenment.)

Then there is the instance in chapter 25 when Sun destroys a priceless heavenly tree laden with immortality-bestowing fruits simply because the guardians won’t share. That sounds like something a child would do: “If I can’t have it, nobody can!”"

But, it's just a fair warning. He has a chance at being an ass to you, so be warned.
