Chapter 568: Chapter 479: Sani Complains, Kubera’s Invitation!_2
I didn’t expect Kubera to actually suggest hosting the banquet himself this time.
Has this guy reformed?
The Devas also shook their heads, showing a look of surprise on their faces.
Upon hearing Indra’s response, the God of Wealth Kubera shook his head. He paced two circles in the Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Temple, clicking his tongue all the while.
"Tsk!"
"Do you guys usually stay in such a shabby place?"
"It’s absolutely no match for my palace!"
"How pathetic, not knowing how to enjoy yourselves, living in such a barren palace!"
"When you come to Quinfa City, I’ll show you what luxury really is!"
Kubera said proudly.
"!!!"
The Devas glared with wide eyes, looking angrily at Kubera.
This guy is too much!
"Hahahaha!"
"Just kidding, after all, the palaces here are still better than those in the Mortal Realm, at least a bit less shabby!"
With a hearty laugh, Kubera turned his head and started walking out of the Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Temple.
He patted his round belly and laughed loudly,
"I’m off to invite Mahadeva to Kailash!"
"You all hurry over now!"
"After all, once I have invited the honored guests, there’s no reason to make them wait. You’ll miss out on the delicious feasts of Quinfa City if you’re late!"
Kubera was beaming.
He rolled around like a fat pig before flipping onto the Divine Chariot Bhusipoga.
Whoosh!
The Divine Chariot Bhusipoga shot out like thunder and lightning, vanishing within the Heavenly Realm and heading toward Kailash.
"This guy is too much!"
Sun God Surya clenched his fists and pounded his chest.
At that moment, the radiance around him became incredibly intense, as if a solar storm had ignited, casting a searing light of drought.
Step!
Sun God Surya took a step forward, ready to rush up.
But at that moment, a golden arm as unbreakable as the Mysterious Wheel of Sight instantly blocked Surya’s path.
Indra shook his head.
"This guy’s a bit strange, seems like he’s under some influence!"
Indra’s eyebrows raised slightly.
He thought to himself, preparing to attend the feast to investigate.
"If he hasn’t been influenced, I should at least have him play the role of Heavenly Emperor once, to see the Asuras give him a good thrashing!"
Indra murmured to himself inwardly.
...
"Today is really great!"
Kubera was in high spirits.
He stood sideways on Bhusipoga, shuttling between thousands of white clouds, streaking through space like a flash of lightning.
Whoosh!
In a flash, Kubera’s eyes lit up.
His green-yellow eyes blinked, gazing far away at a massive snow mountain.
The snow mountain was majestic and lofty, covered with endless snow, with dreamlike azure glows radiating from within the mountain.
Especially at the peak of the snow mountain – the brilliance there was even more bright and piercing the sky.
"We’ve arrived at Kailash!"
"I am here!"
Kubera spread his arms wide, exclaiming excitedly.
He steered the Divine Chariot, appearing in the sky and heading straight for Kailash.
Whoosh!
The next moment, the speed of the Divine Chariot Bhusipoga increased again, but its altitude became lower and lower, and the beings on the ground became clearer and clearer.
Kubera’s eyes widened suddenly in shock.
"No good!"
"I forgot that you can’t use the Divine Chariot in Kailash!"
Kubera cried out alarmingly.
In the skies above Kailash, one could fly over on their own or ride a mount.
But if driving a vehicle, it would fall from the sky.
Whoosh!
The Divine Chariot drew a beautiful arc in the sky, like a golden rainbow, and crashed straight toward the ground.
Boom!
The Divine Ship landed, creating a big crater on the ground.
Countless snowflakes tumbled down, burying his body.
"Strange!"
"Even if it’s because I’m flying in Kailash, Bhusipoga would fall.
"But how could it possibly fall so quickly!"
"Could someone be messing with it in secret?"
Kubera crawled out of the snowdrift, shook off his body, then with a slight roll of his tiny eyes and a pat on his belly, he muttered under his breath.
"No, that’s not right!"
"This is Kailash, protected by Mahadeva’s power!"
"How could someone possibly be causing trouble in secret!"
God of Wealth Kubera shook his head, clasped his hands together, then turned to pack up Bhusipoga, and took steps towards Kailash.
At this time, on the mountaintop of Kailash.
The pine forest was dense, luxuriant and lush!
Surrounded by numerous green trees, Shiva sat calmly on a large rock. His left foot touched the ground, while his right leg was crossed and rested on the knee of his left leg.
The pitch-black Trishula was solid and weighty, standing firmly by his right side.
Shénniú Nándí stood beside him.
He wore a smile, looking at his Supreme Lord with delight, utterly open-hearted.
Yet, at the snow-capped summit of Kailash, it wasn’t just the two of them, there was a third person present.
"This Kubera is really going too far!"
"How dare he drive a Divine Chariot in Kailash and provoke the Supreme Lord!"
"He should be punished!"
Punished! Punished! Punished!
A resounding and forceful voice of rebuke rose immediately.
Karma God Sani, with a cold face and arms crossed, dressed in black and blue armor, stood displeased.
"It’s too much!"
"He is blatantly disrespecting the Supreme Lord!"
"There needs to be more punishment!"
Sani’s eyes emitted a faint blue light, discontent in his heart, as if to mete out further punishment.
Seeing this, Shiva, whose face was usually as calm as a still well, finally showed a trace of contemplation at this moment.
"Sani!"
"Since you have already punished Kubera, and his driving Bhusipoga into Kailash has resulted in the fall of karmic retribution being complete, you should stop there!"
Shiva slowly said.
Upon hearing this, Sani frowned.
He clasped his hands together, looking up in a prayer-like manner towards Mahadeva.
"Mahadeva! Supreme Lord! Great God with three eyes!"
"I am the Karma God you personally appointed. You once told me that everything is within the realm of karmic fruit, and even you cannot escape the bindings of karma, and must endure my evil eye!"
"Not only does God of Wealth Kubera disrespect you!"
"But it is also a trample on your majesty!"
"He deserves to be punished more severely!"
Karma God Sani said.
Hearing this, Shiva gazed at Sani and said, "Sani, moderation is a good quality for an ascetic!"
"Whether it is food, sleep, or desires, one should take them in reasonable measures!"
"The same applies to punishment!"
Shiva counseled.
Sani’s face darkened, and he clasped his hands together, showing an expression of incomprehension.
"Mahadeva!"
"This is a duty you personally entrusted to me!"
"I ought to punish them, make them pay for their wrong actions!"
"But why do none of the Devas understand me?"
"Back then, I battled Sindura for them, yet these punished ones completely fail to understand me!"
Sani grated his teeth.
Shiva was patient as he watched Sani and continued to speak: "If that is the case, you may try to integrate with them."
"Integrate?"
Sani looked puzzled and uncertain.
What did that mean?
At this moment, Shiva smiled slightly and lifted his gaze, only to see a plump figure bursting out from the forest.
God of Wealth Kubera wobbled over.
He ran up to Mahadeva with joy, then looked around, surveying the simple surroundings.
Kubera clasped his hands together.
"Oh, Mahadeva!"
"This place is really too simple, why not come over to mine and have a look!"
"I have magnificent palaces!"
"Please come to my banquet!"
Kubera invited gleefully and proudly.
Mahadeva Shiva’s eyes moved slightly as he turned his gaze towards Sani, then gave a faint smile.
"I am about to meditate rigorously, so I cannot go!"
"And what about the Lady Master?"
"Parvati is also busy!"
"Is that so?"
God of Wealth Kubera appeared disappointed, heaving a long sigh.
At that moment, smiling, Mahadeva suddenly spoke.
"Though Uma and I cannot attend, Vinayaka has time."
"And Sani can also go!"
Shiva smiled and said.
Ah?
God of Wealth Kubera was slightly stunned.
At that moment, his gaze shifted, and he noticed Sani beside him, his face dark with discontent.
