Chapter 323: Metamorphosis (1)
Sometimes, people were very strange.
“Hmph! Why did you come to our Heavenly Court’s important place?” A fairy said coldly, “Please leave.”
It was obvious that they wanted to chase Sun Wukong away.
However, Sun Wukong was considered to have some status in the Western religions, so they did not dare scold him too much.
However, they were not very afraid. In the end, the Western Buddha could not control the gods of the Heavenly Court!
Sun Wukong frowned.
He was unhappy. With his cultivation level and his status, he took the initiative to greet them. It could be considered as lowering his head.
However, he did not expect to be reprimanded.
“I’m just passing by my old place and visiting it again. What’s the matter with you? Even the Jade Emperor might not care about me. Who are you to say anything? The Peaches of Immortality Garden is considered an important place. Does the entrance count?”
Sun Wukong sneered, “I’ll just stay here and watch. What do you think?”
The woman was so angry that her face turned red.
“Sisters, let’s go in and pick peaches. Ignore him!”
As they spoke, they were about to enter.
......
Sun Wukong watched coldly from the side.
Seeing that they were about to enter, Sun Wukong said, “Where’s the warrant? No matter how many peaches you pick, you have to report to the duty officer. You’re quite old and don’t know any rules!”
“What has it got to do with you?” The fairy’s willow-like eyebrows stood up.
She was really angry.
Especially when Sun Wukong said that she was quite old. No matter what, this woman still cared about this aspect.
Sun Wukong looked at the duty guard, smiled and said, “What? You only dare stop me but not her? I still have to pay a visit to the Jade Emperor in a while. Since you are neglecting your duties, I have to talk to him properly. This is a great garden. I can’t let some people take advantage of it.”
Sun Wukong was a narrow-minded person who would not be at a disadvantage.
Upon hearing this, both the seven fairies and the guard on duty felt a chill run down their spines.
The guard on duty stepped forward and said, “Fairy, please show me your decree and report the number and use of the peaches picked so that it is convenient to report!”
“We have to pick 1,700 low-grade Peaches of Immortality, 365 medium-grade Peaches of Immortality, and three high-grade Peaches of Immortality to use them for tomorrow’s banquet hosted by the Queen Mother of the Jade Emperor.”
Peaches of Immortality were one of the common items for large-scale banquets held by the Heavenly Court.
When the Heavenly Court’s Immortals had nothing to do, they would hold all sorts of banquets. After all, they had nothing else to do.
Of course, whether or not to place Peaches of Immortality would depend on the mood of the Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor.
After the report was finished, the two sides went through a ceremony, and the seven fairies entered with baskets in their hands.
Their baskets might not look big, but in reality, they were a kind of spatial treasure. Even if all the peaches in the Peach Garden were placed inside, they might not be fully filled.
Seeing their ashen faces, Sun Wukong felt much better.
In the Peaches of Immortality Garden, the land lord came up to them and said with a smile, “Seven fairies, you are here on business again.”
The seven fairies were in a bad mood. They all ignored him and continued picking peaches.
Slowly, they entered from the outside.
Lu Ping lay under the leaves, extremely nervous.
He was afraid that they would find out.
If they found out, it would be a big problem.
Fortunately, they only chose three high-grade Peaches of Immortality, which were ripe once every 9,000 years. Lu Ping chose the Peaches of Immortality on the fruit tree in the middle.
The seven fairies chose three peaches of good quality on the edge of the tree and put them into the basket. Then, they slowly walked out of the Peach Garden. At this moment, the land lord came to the tree where he was and said in a low voice, “Come to my hand!”
Lu Ping immediately flapped his wings and landed in the hands of the land lord.
At the entrance of the garden, the land lord opened the door and cupped his hands. He said with a smile, “Take care, fairies!”
The seven fairies wore a cold face and looked straight ahead as if they had not heard him. Then, they slowly left.
At this moment, the land lord seemed to have just seen Sun Wukong. He saluted and smiled. “Greetings, Great Sage!”
“Haha, long time no see!”
Sun Wukong went forward. The two guards could not stop him. Sun Wukong steadily came before the land lord.
The two chatted for a long while.
Then, they left.
When Sun Wukong arrived at an empty spot.
Lu Ping flew out from his sleeve and immediately returned to his human form.
Sun Wukong asked anxiously, “How is it?”
“I picked a hundred peaches!” Lu Ping answered honestly.
Sun Wukong’s eyes lit up instantly. “Alright, give me seventy peaches and leave thirty!”
Lu Ping had no objections to this.
To put it bluntly, this matter was planned by Sun Wukong. He was the mastermind and he was at most an accomplice. Furthermore, Sun Wukong had also given something to the land. Although he did not know what it was, in comparison, he must have paid more.
Lu Ping handed the Peaches of Immortality to Sun Wukong. Sun Wukong was overjoyed and kept most of them. He left one and opened his mouth to bite it.
“Delicious! It’s f*cking delicious! In this world, this Queen Mother’s Peaches of Immortality are the most delicious!” Sun Wukong’s eyes were filled with love.
Lu Ping could not help but take out one. He imitated Sun Wukong and opened his mouth to bite it.
With this bite, Lu Ping instantly opened up a new world.
The vegetarian dishes he ate from Yun Xiao were already very delicious, but if one were to really talk about it, they might not be as good as the immortal-level demon meat.
But this Peach of Immortality was completely different.
Apart from the delicious sweetness on his mouth, there was also a sense of satisfaction that came from his heart.
The ice-cold peach juice exploded in his mouth.
