Chapter 315: If He Continued Reading, He Would Vomit (2)
Lu Ping said with a look of disdain, “Don’t you know what comfort is? This is like buying a car. Other than a top-notch engine, the rest of your car is a beggar’s version. I would rather have a slightly weaker engine but a slightly more comfortable one.”
“Hehe, ignorant brat. I can’t be bothered with you. However, I really don’t know where San Xiao Lives!”
“Huh?”
Lu Ping was dumbfounded.
Sun Wukong said helplessly, “Back then, I only met the three of them a few times. Although we know each other, we haven’t even spoken for a while. How would I know where their cave abode is?”
“Then what should we do now?”
“Just find someone to ask!”
Sun Wukong pulled Lu Ping, found a direction, and flew over.
Soon, the two of them arrived at an immortal mountain.
It was located on a mountain in the clouds.
Sun Wukong pulled Lu Ping in and shouted, “Old man! Old man!”
In a cave abode, Taibai Jinxing walked out and said with a bitter smile, “Great Sage, which wind blew you here?”
Speaking of Sun Wukong, there were not many people in the Heavenly Court who had a good relationship with him. Taibai Jinxing was one of them.
......
Although Sun Wukong had already become a Buddha, in private, this old fellow still addressed him as the great sage.
Sun Wukong went forward to welcome him, he smiled and said, “I met a young friend by chance. His disciple had lost her physical body. He wanted to ask Empress San Xiao for help in rebuilding his physical body. However, I brought him here and did not know where Empress San Xiao lived. I came to ask you!”
Sun Wukong also knew that he could not hide his arrival in the Heavenly Court from the Jade Emperor and the others.
There was nothing that could not be said.
Upon hearing this, Taibai Jinxing looked at Lu Ping.
How could Sun Wukong call him a friend?
What was his background?
However, after taking a look, he was a little disappointed.
He was just a Tribulation stage cultivator.
“Perhaps there is something that caught Sun Wukong’s eye,” he thought to himself.
At this moment, Lu Ping also stepped forward, bowed, and said with a smile, “Greetings, Mr. Taibai Jinxing. I have long heard that you are a pillar of the Heavenly Court. Today, we have met. You are indeed a sage with outstanding grace.”
Compliments were delivered.
Taibai Jinxing’s face was full of smiles. Even immortals liked to hear compliments.
“Haha, this young friend’s cultivation base is solid, and his future is limitless. When you break through to the Gold Immortal stage, you might as well come to the Heavenly Court to seek a position,” Taibai Jinxing said.
As he spoke, he looked at Sun Wukong, “The three ladies are on an immortal island fifty thousand miles northwest of here. However, I have to remind you that the three manors are crowded with people! Moreover, their status is completely different from before!”
“Oh?” Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes. The three of them were gods with no jurisdiction and no specific matters. In a way, they were also gods of filth. How could they be crowded with people?
He asked curiously, “Why is that?”
Taibai Jinxing smiled and said, “Things are different now. Empress Yun Xiao is now Empress Chongxi, personally conferred by the Jade Emperor. She is in charge of the management of the southeast star domain of the universe. A few days ago, the Jade Emperor gave her the right to choose people! Therefore, many people are now targeting this person.”
Sun Wukong frowned and pondered for a moment. Then, he said with a smile, “This old Jade Emperor sure knows how to think...”
He was no longer the rash person he was back then. He could guess what was going on here.
“That’s why, when the Great Sage goes, don’t neglect him.”
Clearly, Taibai Jinxing was giving Sun Wukong a reminder. After all, this person’s temper was not that good.
When the time came, there would not really be any conflict.
Sun Wukong smiled and said, “Don’t worry, we are here to ask for help. How can we be negligent?”
As he spoke, he flew off with Lu Ping.
Taibai Jinxing thought for a while.
He also flew up into the sky and headed straight for the palace.
At this moment, the Jade Emperor was thinking about the position of the second emperor.
This person, he planned to support another person from the Chanism.
Yun Xiao’s status rose and he became a hot topic in the Heavenly Court.
This was especially so for Jieism. Many of them wanted to use this opportunity to make a comeback.
The Jade Emperor also took advantage of the situation and gave Yun Xiao some authority.
On the other side, how could the Chanism people, who had a high status in the Heavenly Court, not think about it?
In reality, the Jade Emperor wanted to suppress the Chanism, but he also needed to use the Chanism. He could not allow Yun Xiao to act alone.
There had to be an opponent for balance!
“It’s still Yang Jian!” The Jade eEperor sighed and said, “After all, he is my nephew. His strength is currently at the top of the Heavenly Court. He is more suitable.”
The Queen Mother smiled and said, “Your Majesty, that child, Yang Jian, might not be willing. He likes to roam around and has always been lazy. How can he be willing to do this?”
The Jade Emperor smiled slightly, “Hehe, you still haven’t seen through it. Be it Yang Jian or Yun Xiao, they aren’t people who are greedy for power. It’s just that the people behind them won’t let them decline. These days, the Chanism people are quite anxious. Out of the eight star regions, there’s only one great emperor. Yun Xiao is extremely glorious. The Chanism people are being neglected, especially the low-level immortals. This is a great opportunity for them to rise to the top. How can they not please Yun Xiao? Chanism and the others will not let Yang Jian resign. However, this matter cannot be confirmed immediately. Let the news out first. There will be people to persuade him!”
The moment the Jade Emperor said that, the Queen Mother came to a realization. She praised him with admiration in her eyes, “Your Majesty’s current methods are truly impressive.”
“Hmph! Do you think I don’t know anything? After becoming a god, I became the Heavenly Emperor. It has only been a few years since I traveled to the west. These people deliberately made me lose face and made me rely on them. I have not forgotten!”
The Jade Emperor gritted his teeth and continued, “I have remembered it all these years.”
This was indeed true. Back then, Sun Wukong caused a ruckus in the sky and the Jade Emperor lost his good reputation. He even asked for help from the Western religions. Did he really think that he did not have any thoughts?
Be it Jieism or Chanism, they were all working with him without putting in any effort.
Although the Jade Emperor would not seek revenge, he had gradually figured out what was going on after so many years.
That was why he had to take back the initiative. He had to raise his voice and command!
No leader would want to see his subordinates disobeying him!
The Jade Emperor’s plan was very clear. Chanism wanted to suppress him, but they could not completely suppress him. They had to help Yun Xiao find an opponent.
An opponent that could make her feel a sense of urgency.
Only then would Yun Xiao do her best.
Only then would she be able to hold great power in the balance!
He was thinking about the next details when someone suddenly reported that Taibai Jinxing had requested to see him.
The Jade Emperor immediately invited him in.
After entering, Taibai Jinxing cupped his hands and said, “Your Majesty, Sun Wukong is here!”
When he heard this fellow was here, the Jade Emperor’s expression immediately darkened.
“What is Sun Wukong doing here again? He hasn’t come to the Heavenly Court for tens of thousands of years! What is his purpose for coming here now?”
Sun Wukong was his psychological shadow.
It was also his sore spot.
If he had to say who he wanted to kill the most in this world, Sun Wukong would definitely be one of them.
Taibai Jinxing told him the purpose of Sun Wukong and Lu Ping’s visit.
The Jade Emperor fell into deep thought.
He rubbed his chin and pondered, “Is it really for this?”
“It should be. I saw that Lu Ping was wearing a Soul Nurturing Ring. If not, what else could he do?” Taibai Jinxing smiled and said, “Now that he has joined a Western sect, he is being controlled by others. What else can he do?”
Actually, speaking of which, The matter between Sun Wukong and the Jade Emperor was a matter of reputation.
What the Jade Emperor wanted was his good reputation back.
The Jade Emperor pondered for a moment and said, “No, Sun Wukong is not reliable and his hands and feet are not clean. Immediately send orders to all places to guard the Peaches of Immortality Garden and all the entrances. Don’t let him take advantage of any loopholes!”
