When the monkey discovered he had not been invited to the Grand Peach Banquet hosted by Queen Mother, he was so outraged that he wrecked the banquet. The Jade Emperor sent a heavenly army to capture the monkey. After a long and hard battle, the monkey was finally captured by Erlang and sent to the Taoist Master's furnace to be burned.
