Forced to become a top influencer, I rely on my tu cao to ruin the cultivation world.

The Imperial Horse Stables of Heaven was once one of the most sacred institutions in the Three Realms.

Here live the Heavenly Court's warhorses, each a divine beast capable of traveling a thousand miles a day, every mane shimmering with spiritual light. And in charge of all this is none other than Sun Wukong, who was once appointed "Keeper of the Heavenly Horses."

At this moment, Sun Wukong sat listlessly at the entrance of the Imperial Stables, picking his teeth with a straw. Since his rampage in the Heavenly Palace and subsequent five hundred years of imprisonment, although he was nominally the "Great Sage Equal to Heaven" upon his return, it was essentially a sinecure. The Jade Emperor, fearing he would cause trouble, had him return to the Imperial Stables for "temporary training."

"This damn life is even more boring than being imprisoned under the Five Elements Mountain." Sun Wukong yawned, watching the magnificent celestial horses lazily grazing on the grass. "I used to be able to ride them around a couple of times, but now I don't even have a chance to go on a business trip."

My heart aches for the Great Sage; his situation with this government job is truly miserable.

Although the position of弼马温 (Bima Wen) was lowly, at least he had a horse to ride. Now he's all alone.

[Waiting for a plot twist, Chairman Jia's "industrial sugar-coated bullets" are on their way!]

Just then, a strange rumbling sound came from the horizon.

Sun Wukong's ears twitched, and he suddenly stood up. It wasn't thunder, nor was it the howl of the wind, but a roar he had never heard before, filled with mechanical rhythm.

"What is that thing?"

From the direction of the South Heavenly Gate, a monster, entirely black with lines as smooth as flowing water, was spewing blue flames as it rushed towards them at a speed too fast for the naked eye to perceive.

The monster had no wings, yet it moved through the air as if it were flat ground; it had no spiritual energy fluctuations, yet it was so fast that even its shadow could not be caught.

"Such speed!" Sun Wukong's eyes lit up, his fighting spirit instantly ignited. "I'll see what kind of magic weapon this is!"

He lightly touched the ground with his toes, transforming into a golden light as he rushed forward.

However, when he caught up with the monster, he was dumbfounded.

In the driver's seat sat neither a god nor a monster, but a mortal dressed in a suit and sunglasses. The man had a cigar in his mouth and a round "magic weapon" in his hand. With a slight turn, the monster nimbly drifted, almost throwing Sun Wukong off.

"Hey! Monkey in front, move aside! Don't block the way!" The man honked his horn, producing a piercing "beep beep" sound.

[Livestream chat]

[Hahaha! Daring to call the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, the Monkey King? This mortal has some nerve!]

[Didi? Don't you know that honking is prohibited in Heaven?]

Wow, this car is awesome! What model is it?

"Monkey? Who are you calling a monkey!" Sun Wukong roared, his golden cudgel instantly appearing in his hand. "Take this!"

"No, no, no! It's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!" The man shuddered in fright and quickly slammed on the brakes. The monster let out a mournful roar and stopped just three inches from Sun Wukong's nose.

"Who are you? How dare you cause trouble in Heaven?" Sun Wukong shouted, pointing at the man's nose.

"Great Sage, please calm down! Great Sage, please calm down!" The man took off his sunglasses, revealing a fawning smile. "I'm a deliveryman sent by General Manager Jia. This is your 'Pseudo-Horse Keeper's Exclusive Ride'—the psionic sports car 'Somersault Cloud Pro Max'! (Actually, it's a modified psionic tractor)."

[System notification: Key figure Sun Wukong detected.]

[Triggering the key quest: The Stable Keeper's "New Ride"]

[Mission Objective: Replace the mythical beasts with industrial products and recruit Sun Wukong as the logistics director.]

[Current live stream popularity: 3500 million (The entire internet is watching: The love-hate relationship between monkeys and sports cars).]

"For me?" Sun Wukong looked at the black monster with suspicion.

"That's right!" The man quickly got out of the car, opened the door, and said, "Great Sage, look, you don't need to exert any effort to ride this car. Just inject a wisp of spiritual energy, and it can cruise automatically. Its top speed is 108,000 li per hour, which is perfect for your somersault cloud. Moreover, it also has an autopilot function, so you can drink or sleep in the car if you want!"

Sun Wukong sat down with some skepticism. The leather seat was soft and comfortable, far better than his stiff saddle. He tried putting a low-grade spirit stone into the spirit stone slot on the instrument panel.

"boom--!"

The engine ignited instantly, and a powerful surge of acceleration pressed him firmly into his seat.

"Holy crap! That's awesome!" Sun Wukong couldn't help but swear.

He gripped the steering wheel and floored the accelerator. The black sports car transformed into a black lightning bolt, instantly speeding out of the Imperial Stables.

After circling three times in the sky, Sun Wukong stopped. He looked at the sports car lying quietly on the clouds, then looked back at the celestial horses in the Imperial Stables who were still slowly grazing, and his eyes became complicated.

"This thing... is much faster than riding a horse."

It's definitely much faster. Before, when he rode the celestial horse, he had to work hard to control its emotions and feed it hay. Now, all he needs to do is pay with spirit stones, and Jia Zang has plenty of those.

"Who will ride horses in the future?" Sun Wukong sighed, jumped off the vehicle, and looked at the sports car as if he were witnessing a new era.

The celestial horses in the Imperial Stables seemed to sense their master's neglect. They snorted uneasily, their eyes filled with confusion. They were unaware that they were about to face unemployment.

[Pegasus: What did I do wrong? Why am I going to be replaced by cars?]

This is the power of industrialization! Even monkeys can't escape the "it smells so good!" phenomenon!

[That's called a dimensional reduction attack!]

[My heart aches for Pegasus for a second; he'll be stuck pulling millstones from now on.]

Jia Zang had actually been eyeing Sun Wukong for a long time.

He knew this monkey was a talented individual, but also a troublemaker. The Heavenly Court didn't employ him because he was uncontrollable. But in Jia Zang's eyes, this uncontrollability was precisely his greatest strength.

"Sun Wukong, born rebellious and exceptionally capable, is marginalized by the system due to his personality." Jia Zhuang sat in his office on the South Heavenly Gate tower, watching the surveillance footage of Sun Wukong stroking a sports car, a smile playing on his lips. "Isn't this a typical 'unrecognized' high-level executive?"

Jia Zang decided to give the monkey a position he couldn't refuse.

He straightened his suit and went to the Imperial Stables in person.

"Great Sage, how have you been?" Jia Zang walked over with a smile.

When Sun Wukong saw Jia Zang, he didn't show the same hostility he displayed towards other deities. After all, that sports car had certainly given him a good time.

"Oh, it's you, that mortal engineer." Sun Wukong scratched his head. "This car is nice, thanks. But, I, Old Sun, am not the kind of person who's beholden to someone who takes a bribe."

"I know." Jia Zhuang nodded. "I don't ask the Great Sage to help me fight. I just want the Great Sage to help me deliver a package."

"Delivering packages?" Sun Wukong was taken aback.

"That's right." Jia Zang pointed to the rows of shipping containers that had just been transported from the mortal realm behind him. "I'm currently working on 'Heavenly Logistics' and need an experienced, fast, and reputable director. After much thought, I've concluded that you, Great Sage, are the most suitable person in the entire Heavenly Court."

"Logistics Director?" Sun Wukong's eyes lit up.

"Yes," Jia Zang continued to tempt her, "Think about it, before you were the Keeper of the Heavenly Horses, in charge of horses. Now you're the Logistics Director, in charge of the circulation of goods throughout the Three Realms. Moreover, you no longer have to put up with the Jade Emperor and his old fogies. In my company, the more you work, the more you earn; the more you deliver, the more you get. And your monkey descendants can also enjoy a life of luxury with you."

Sun Wukong was tempted.

Having spent so long in the Heavenly Court, he had long since grown tired of its lifeless atmosphere. He yearned for battle, for freedom, and even more so, for recognition.

"Alright! I, Old Sun, agree!" Sun Wukong slapped his thigh. "However, I, Old Sun, have one condition."

"Please speak."

"From now on, this Pegasus is yours. I, Old Sun, only want this 'Somersault Cloud Pro Max'!"

Jia Zhuang smiled.

He knew he had succeeded.

He not only recruited a top-tier fighter, but also fundamentally shook the rule of Heaven. The loss of the Heavenly Horse meant that Heaven's military mobility was weakened; while Sun Wukong's addition meant that he had the confidence to confront Heaven.

"Deal." Jia Zhuang held out his hand.

Sun Wukong grabbed his hand and squeezed it hard.

"However, Jia Zang, let me make this clear first," Sun Wukong's eyes sharpened, "if you dare to deceive me, I'll tear your so-called 'logistics company' to shreds!"

"Rest assured, Great Sage," Jia Zang said without changing his expression, "What I give you is freedom throughout the entire Three Realms."

From that day on, the Imperial Horse Stable became a "logistics transit station of Huaguo Mountain".

Tianma was taken away by Jia Zhuang under the pretext of "optimizing resource allocation," and replaced by psionic trucks that spewed out tail flames.

Sun Wukong, on the other hand, was wearing a "logistics director" uniform specially made by Jia Zang—a leather jacket with the "Huaguo Mountain Express" logo printed on it, a pair of goggles, and was piloting his "Somersault Cloud Pro Max" to travel between the Three Realms.

His first business deal was to deliver tons of "industrial saccharin" and "plastic toys" that Jia Zang had brought from Earth to various corners of Heaven.

"Great Sage, your package has arrived!"

Sun Wukong drove his car and landed at the entrance of Taibai Jinxing's mansion.

Taibai Jinxing stared in disbelief at the black monster in the car and then at Sun Wukong jumping out of it.

"Great Sage, what is this...?"

"Stop talking nonsense, sign for it!" Sun Wukong slammed a form into Taibai Jinxing's hand. "From now on, all deliveries to Heaven are under my control! Anyone who dares to disobey me will have their house torn down!"

Venus was so frightened that he quickly signed the document.

Watching Sun Wukong's departing figure, Taibai Jinxing sighed, "It seems the Heavenly Court is about to undergo a major upheaval."

Things are definitely about to change.

Standing atop the South Heavenly Gate tower, Jia Zang gazed at Sun Wukong's black sports car weaving through the clouds, his heart brimming with a sense of accomplishment.

He not only solved the logistics problem, but more importantly, he gave Sun Wukong a new identity and a new goal.

The goal is no longer to rebel against the Heavenly Court, but rather—to make money.

"When the monkey starts scrambling for KPIs, he won't have time to wreak havoc in the Heavenly Palace," Jia Zang muttered to himself. "Unless, the Heavenly Court blocks his path to wealth."

And that day is not far off.

Because Jia Zang's next plan is to involve the entire Heavenly Court in this commercial frenzy.

"Next target, General Curtain Roller." Jia Zang took out his phone and dialed a number. "Hey, Junior Brother Sha? This is Jia Zang. I have a glass lamp for 9.9 yuan with free shipping, want to take a look?"
