Chapter 326: Banquet (2)
This was especially so as it wasn’t that she didn’t have the authority to clear her name, but she was the ruler of a star domain.
No one knew what the situation would be like in the future.
But without a doubt, Yun Xiao’s status had risen!
Take today as an example, Yun Xiao’s position was right below the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother.
This was specially arranged.
Yun Xiao actually knew this kid from the lower stage.
Many people had thoughts in their minds.
The few of them greeted each other and did not say much before heading to their respective positions.
Yun Xiao’s position was right in front of the gods!
Even Emperor Zi Wei and the other true Celestial Emperors had to sit obediently below her.
This was a change in position.
This was what the Jade Emperor wanted. He had conferred a divine seat, so naturally, he wanted it to show respect and honor.
Otherwise, how could everyone be envious? Why would they want to seek a seat?
......
Everyone sat down and chatted. At this moment, a shout rang out.
“The Jade Emperor has arrived!”
Following that, everyone stood up to welcome him.
Although there was no kneeling ceremony, there was still etiquette.
The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother entered and the two of them came to the main seat. The Jade Emperor smiled and said, “Quickly sit down, quickly sit down!”
Everyone did not stand on ceremony and took their seats.
The Jade Emperor waved his sleeves and countless fairies came out from both sides with fruit plates in their hands.
They placed them in front of everyone.
Everyone who attended the banquet had a 6,000-year-old Peach of Immortality in front of them, and three 3,000-year-old Peaches of immortality.
However, Yun Xiao was give a 9,000-year-old Peach of Immortality!
At this moment, even Lu Ping had four Peaches of Immortality in front of him. Lu Ping was not dissatisfied with this.
He sat closest to Sun Wukong, and there was no one else beside him. He leaned over and laughed softly, “This Jade Emperor is quite particular. He gave me the same as yours!”
“That’s for sure. Since you’re here, it’s not like I’m going to deduct what you have and give you the reputation of being stingy for nothing.” Sun Wukong said with a smile, “This old fellow thinks a lot of himself.”
As they spoke, another fairy brought wine jugs and dishes.
Soon, the immortals were served with wine and dishes.
However, the Jade Emperor frowned slightly.
He realized that someone was not here!
“Why hasn’t True Lord Qingyuan Miaodao arrived?” The Jade Emperor asked coldly.
True Lord Qingyuan Miaodao was Yang Jian’s temple title.
At that moment, Yuan Hong stood up and cupped his hands. “True Lord Qingyuan Miaodao went to the lower stage to play a few days ago and has yet to return. Therefore, he was unable to attend the banquet!”
The Jade Emperor was furious. “Play? He only knows how to play! Can’t he focus on government affairs?”
Yuan Hong was not afraid of him. He said in a daze, “True Lord Qingyuan Miaodao has a wide range of responsibilities. Before he came down to the mortal world, he said that if he did not travel around the world and know the hardships and the truth, it would be difficult to protect him.”
Yes, it seemed to be an explanation, but in fact, it was a rebuttal.
To put it bluntly, it was fine if he did not come, but the Jade Emperor complained a little and had to retort.
Could the Jade Emperor feel comfortable? An unknown flame had already risen in his heart, but he also knew that now was not the time to pursue the matter.
He said coldly, “I know. Sit down. How could I not know about my nephew? He just likes to play!”
He immediately decided.
However, he did not criticize too much. Firstly, it was useless to criticize, and secondly, he still intended to use Yang Jian.
“Go, use the God Summoning Bell to summon Yang Jian back!” The Jade Emperor said coldly to the guard general beside him.
The God Summoning Bell was set up to deal with such a situation.
After all, the universe was too big at the moment, and once a god descended, it would be difficult to find him.
A thing like a cell phone could not connect the entire universe.
The God Summoning Bell was the item that the Jade Emperor used to summon the gods of Heaven and earth. As long as one chanted the title of god in front of the bell and hit the God Summoning Bell, all the gods belonging to the Heavenly Court would be able to sense it.
Of course, it would take some time to rush back.
After that person left, the Jade Emperor smiled again, he said, “Yang Jian is a little too playful, but he is still competent. I was thinking of discussing the candidates for the imperial emperor of the northwestern star domain in the next few days, but it seems like it will take some time.”
All the gods were stunned. What did he mean?
He wanted to choose the imperial emperor of the northwestern star domain?
At that moment, the 9,000-year-old Peach of Immortality was extremely eye-catching in front of Yun Xiao.
Its honor could be said to far exceed that of an ordinary immortal seat.
Upon hearing that the Jade Emperor wanted to discuss another imperial emperor, the gods and immortals had a plan in their hearts.
Furthermore, what he said was very interesting.
Yang Jian was very capable. Since Yang Jian was not around, they did not discuss the candidates for this position.
However, the Jade Emperor did not say it out loud. He knew very well that the biggest obstacle to his appointment was Yang Jian himself.
He wanted to let the Chanism celestials present know about this matter.
He had to hand it over to these people to persuade Yang Jian!
Indeed, Yuan Hong’s eyes lit up when he heard this.
The reason why he had contradicted the Jade Emperor was because he was displeased.
Ever since Yuan Hong had been taken in by Yang Jian and entered the god ascension rankings, he had only obeyed Yang Jian’s orders. He had naturally become closer to the gods of the Chanism.
Over the past few days, Yun Xiao’s status had risen, and he had seen it.
In his opinion, why did he let Yun Xiao take up this position?
Usually, the Chanism people would take the lead in everything, but now, they were being treated with such disrespect.
He naturally had resentment in his heart.
However, when he heard those words, he could no longer care about that little bit of resentment.
Instead, he began to think. How could he not know Yang Jian’s temper? The Jade Emperor was right. He was playful. He was truly playful.
This fellow was probably not willing to let him become the star domain’s imperial emperor and take charge of a star domain!
“No, I have to persuade him when he comes back! I can’t be weaker than those Jieism people!”
There were many Chanism immortals who shared the same thoughts as him.
At the beginning of the banquet, Lu Ping picked up the 3,000-year-old Peach of Immortality on the table and took a bite!
What a guy! Although it was a little small, the taste was excellent.
However, it didn’t explode like the 9,000-year-old Peach of Immortality.
After eating it, Lu Ping ate another 6,000-year-old Peach of Immortality.
It was the same. However, after eating the two Peaches of Immortality, the spiritual power in Lu Ping’s body increased by a lot, and his body was also strengthened by the spiritual power of the Peaches of Immortality!
Lu Ping’s current cultivation method was only a Tribulation stage cultivation method. When he used his spiritual power again, it seemed to be somewhat strained.
However, he had no choice.
He could only endure it for now.
After eating two, Lu Ping put away the remaining two peaches.
Instead, he turned his head to look at the dishes on the table.
He took a bite and put it into his mouth!
“It’s good!” That’s right, this was the best dish Lu Ping had ever eaten. He didn’t even know what method it was cooked with, but it was still delicious.
In comparison, it was a completely different feeling from the Peach of Immortality.
After the dish was eaten, another surge of powerful spiritual power burst out.
It was as if his body was on fire.
Lu Ping picked up the wine on the table and poured a cup and drank it.
The wine was cold and sweet, without the slightest bit of spicy taste.
However, the fragrance of the wine was rich and heavy.
After it entered his stomach, the spiritual power that was originally neutralized with the original dish made his whole body feel warm.
Just this meal alone was enough to withstand many years of bitter cultivation!
Although there were not many dishes, the abundant spiritual energy that was contained in his inner energy gave Lu Ping an extremely strong feeling of satiety.
Eating and drinking, the banquet was half-way through. It could be said that the guests and the host enjoyed themselves to the fullest.
The Jade Emperor looked at Yun Xiao and said with a smile, “Empress Chongxi, accompany me and the Queen Mother for a walk!”
Yun Xiao readily agreed.
She left with the Jade Emperor. As for the immortals present, they began to drink heartily.
This was also a normal situation. The Jade Emperor would not stay until the end of the banquet. He would only show his face, host for a while, drink a little, and then leave.
After he left, the atmosphere became even more relaxed. Immortals could not be bothered with those trivial matters. They all toasted and drank to their heart’s content.
Lu Ping also saw an opportunity.
He took out a container from his storage ring and secretly poured the wine into it.
Sun Wukong said with a smile, “Brat, do you still want to take it away?”
Lu Ping did not feel embarrassed. He said honestly, “Since I can’t drink the Heavenly Court’s wine, then I’ll take some. This thing is extremely beneficial to me. I’ll save it for later. Besides, my family has never tasted it before. I’ll get some for them to try.”
Sun Wukong gave him a thumbs up and said with a smile, “You’re a real person. If you only talk about your family, I’ll definitely laugh at your hypocrisy.”
“Watch me, Uncle Sun, help you!”
