When the news of the Yaochi Banquet spread, the other gods who were not in front of Nantianmen were shocked and didn't know why it was held.
This isn't a New Year or a special day, so what?
But since the Jade Emperor gave the order, they could just go. It would be a fool not to go for such a beautiful thing.
"Invite everyone who can be invited, the two great emperors Gouchen and Ziwei, Laojun and Changsheng Emperor, the five elders of the five directions, the ancestor of the earthly immortals, etc., according to the standards of the Peach Festival."
Along the way, the Jade Emperor ordered the immortals around him to inform people.
Sun Wukong, who followed the Jade Emperor, was pleasantly surprised. He could see that the Jade Emperor really valued him this time, instead of just giving him a job as the Great Sage of Qi to fool him.
The more Sun Wukong thought about it, the more excited he became. He immediately figured out that the reason why the Jade Emperor valued him must be because he had gained a reputation through his recent series of fights.
And the source of all this is undoubtedly that magical bookstore. The bookstore is mighty, the bookstore is bullish, and the owner is domineering and invincible.
Sun Wukong silently said in his heart, grateful to the bookstore and Yang Xiao.
When Sun Wukong and others went to Yaochi, Yang Xiao switched to the water mirror and took the time to look at Sheng Ling for a while.
At present, Lingshan has not received any news, and the Tathagata is giving lectures to the Bodhisattvas and Arhats in Daleiyin Temple.
As before, Sheng Ling took the golden-winged roc eagle everywhere to extort treasures.
After watching for a while, Yang Xiao switched back to Sun Wukong.
Compared with the Lingxiao Palace, the scenery in Yaochi is less majestic, but more comfortable and elegant.
At this moment, Sun Wukong and others had arrived at Yaochi. The Jade Emperor took Sun Wukong and Nezha and talked with them.
The Queen Mother was at the side, arranging people to prepare the necessary things.
In the past, the Queen Mother had always prepared the peach event. She was more experienced, so the Jade Emperor left it to her.
Soon, with the high-speed efficiency of the immortals, tables and tables of banquets were laid out. The wine was nectar and jade liquid, and the dishes were exotic fruits.
Unlike ordinary people, the immortals do not eat whole grains or human fireworks. What they eat are fruits and vegetables produced by the spiritual roots of heaven and earth, such as peaches.
While the banquet was being prepared, immortals who got the news rushed over from all directions in the world.
Outside Yaochi, there are two immortal officials who are notifying the coming gods.
"Nine Heavenly Mysteries are here!"
"The Great Immortal Zhenyuan, the ancestor of the Earth Immortals, has arrived!"
"The Great Immortal of Central Huangji and Huangjiao has arrived!"
…
Listening to the shouts outside, Yang Xiao looked through the water mirror curiously at the people who came in.
Especially when he heard Zhen Yuanzi, Yang Xiao's eyes suddenly lit up.
The ancestor of the earthly immortal named Yuanzi in this town was a quasi-sage strongman like the Jade Emperor and others, and he was very ancient.
The key is that he has in his hand the ginseng fruit tree, one of the ten most powerful spiritual roots in the world. It is said that one can live for more than 47,000 years by eating one ginseng fruit.
When Yang Xiao looked around, he saw that Zhen Yuanzi was a middle-aged Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe and a faint smile on his face, giving him the image of an outsider.
"Brother Zhen Yuanzi, you are here, haha, we brothers meet again so soon."
Seeing the visitor, Sun Wukong was immediately surprised and went to greet him.
There was a difficulty in Wuzhuang Temple, and there was a difficulty in Skull Mountain. Because the ginseng fruit tree was pushed down, Sun Wukong asked Guanyin to save it. Zhen Yuanzi and Sun Wukong became sworn brothers.
"It turned out to be Wukong's wise brother. Why didn't he go to Bao Tang Monk to learn Buddhist scriptures? Could it be that he was invited by the Jade Emperor to attend the Yaochi Banquet?"
Zhen Yuanzi was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile.
Sun Wukong waved his hand: "The monk will be fine for a while. If he encounters monsters, it won't be too late for me to help him overcome the difficulties."
"What the Immortal doesn't know is that this Yaochi Banquet was specially held by me for Wukong. He promised to be the God of War in my heaven. I feel that the whole world should celebrate, so I hold this banquet."
The Jade Emperor from behind came over with a smile and greeted Zhen Yuanzi politely.
The two of them are about the same strength, and the Jade Emperor certainly won't put on any airs like the Jade Emperor.
Zhen Yuanzi's face was full of astonishment when he heard this: "It's held for Wukong, the God of War in Heaven? Isn't he the Buddhist monk who protects Tang Monk from the West to learn Buddhist scriptures..."
"Buddhism is Buddhism, and my heaven is heaven. Wukong's willingness to serve in my heaven and help them learn scriptures are not inconsistent. Even if he becomes a Buddha in Buddhism, he can also be the god of war in my heaven at the same time."
It seemed that he had known that Zhen Yuanzi would have doubts, so the Jade Emperor explained with a smile.
When the other gods around heard that this banquet was held for Sun Wukong, they came over curiously.
There are some smart people who have established a relationship with Sun Wukong.
This time the Jade Emperor made such a big show, it was definitely not a joke. In other words, this monkey may become famous in the future.
As time passed bit by bit, more and more gods rushed to Yaochi.
Yang Xiao's camera switched back and forth between Sun Wukong, Nezha, and Bai Pinpin. He observed these immortals and recognized many of them.
When it was almost time to see people arriving, the Jade Emperor announced that the Yaochi Banquet had officially begun.
"Everyone can come to this banquet to give me face. I am here to thank everyone present. The purpose of holding this banquet is to celebrate the addition of a new general to our heaven."
"This man is the Monkey King, the Great Sage of the past, and now the God of War in Heaven, Sun Wukong. Everyone is welcome."
At the beginning of the banquet, the Jade Emperor talked so much that Yang Xiao almost fell asleep.
What he said was nothing more than clichés and had no actual content. This made Yang Xiao have to lament that no matter where they are, the big guys speak the same way.
After the Jade Emperor spoke for a while, he asked Sun Wukong to speak.
How could Sun Wukong behave like the Jade Emperor? He blushed for a long time and said: "Everyone has fun eating and there is no need to be polite to me!"
The immortals were so funny that they greeted Sun Wukong kindly one by one. I really don’t know what luck this monkey got that he was valued by the Jade Emperor.
Although the Jade Emperor is just a puppet of the saint, he is also the Supreme Being of the Three Realms on the surface, and most people can't even take a look at him.
After Sun Wukong, the Jade Emperor asked Bai Pinpin and Nezha to come over and say a few words to let everyone get to know each other.
Especially Bai Pinpin, after all, she was a monster before. Except for the people in heaven, few people knew her.
Then the Yaochi banquet officially started. The immortals drank the nectar and jade liquid, ate the fairy fruits, and chatted, not to mention how happy they were.
Yang Xiao's head was full of black lines. Didn't this make the shop owner greedy? He decisively switched the camera.
"Damn it, you don't call me the Emperor of Heaven when you have a banquet. You wait for the Emperor of Heaven."
As soon as the camera switched, Yang Xiao saw Hua Husiao looking angry.
At this time, the flower fox and marten had already sneaked out of Mo Lishou's Heavenly Prince's Mansion, hiding his traces, and headed somewhere.
Yang Xiao, who couldn't laugh or cry, followed curiously. Is this Diao going to imitate Sun Wukong back then and make a big fuss because he wasn't invited?
After a while, Yang Xiao found the flower fox and marten outside a garden.
Inside, there are peach trees as far as the eye can see. The huge peaches are white with red in them. Just looking at them makes your mouth water.
"Peach Garden!"
Yang Xiao exclaimed, he didn't expect that this bold Diao really planned to cause a scene.
