Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything-Chapter 1591 - 1589: Jade Emperor, Why Do You Sigh?
The Jade Emperor's words startled everyone in the grand hall!
What did the Jade Emperor say? If they allied with the Buddhist Sect, both they and the Buddhist Sect would be annihilated?
Could it be that he's truly frightened by the power of the Ming Sect? Like a startled bird?
The Buddhist Sect is currently in its prime, even if they provoke the Ming Sect, yet the Ming Sect can only endure it!
How could an alliance between the Heavenly Court and the Buddhist Sect result in their mutual destruction?
"Your Majesty, this..." The moment of shock quieted the entire hall, and after a pause, the Bare-Feet Immortal opened his mouth, wanting to argue!
"Everyone, today is my birthday, let's just talk about eating, drinking, and having fun, not serious matters!"
However, before the Bare-Feet Immortal could finish his words, the Jade Emperor spoke to the immortals present!
Alright, after all, today is the Jade Emperor's birthday. Since he has instructed them to discuss only eating, drinking, and entertainment, not serious matters, even if these immortals have much to say, they can't voice it now!
Immediately, the atmosphere at the birthday feast became lively again, and indeed, no one talked about those matters anymore!
Of course, regarding the specifics of the situation, these immortals present were somewhat doubtful!
"Is it true? Things seem a bit off!"
Among the crowd, Jiang Liu quietly played the role of Erlang God's attendant, not speaking a word, but naturally, he observed the situation just now!
And this made Jiang Liu secretly surprised!
From the current state, Buddhism is thriving, reaching its peak!
However, the Jade Emperor actually said that even with an alliance between the Heavenly Court and the Buddhist Sect, they are no match for the Ming Sect?
Jiang Liu felt something was amiss!
If it's simply idle talk from the Jade Emperor? Jiang Liu would certainly not believe it!
Just that, if the Jade Emperor thinks so, he must have his reasons!
But, what exactly are the reasons making the Jade Emperor believe that even an alliance with the Buddhist Sect is no match for the Ming Sect?
The Jade Emperor didn't intend to explain, and Jiang Liu didn't know either!
"It seems, just as I guessed! The Jade Emperor has his own reasons for being so intimidated!"
Even though he doesn't know the Jade Emperor's reasons, witnessing today's scene from hiding, Jiang Liu confirmed his previous suspicions!
Indeed! The Jade Emperor knows something that others are unaware of!
The birthday feast continued and after a merry drink, finally, every feast must end!
These immortals, with varying degrees of intoxication, gradually left!
After these immortals gradually departed, the Jade Emperor instructed the Immortal Maidens and Divine Power Warriors to tidy up while he turned around and headed to his bedchamber!
The Immortal Officials and Divine Generals all went their separate ways!
Erlang God naturally exchanged a glance with Jiang Liu, and then Erlang God left alone!
As these immortals departed one by one, a bit of intoxication faded from their faces!
Then, several immortals who were better friends invited each other to sit together!
Today, at the birthday feast, although the Jade Emperor glossed over his slip of the tongue!
Yet, the fact that the Jade Emperor had no intention of allying with the Buddhist Sect to confront the Ming Sect did cause serious doubts!
Hence, in suspicion, these immortals wanted to secretly find a few close friends to have a good chat and discussion!
After all, two heads are better than one!
"Second brother, got time? Let's have a good chat and some tea together, shall we?"
Even Erlang God, while leaving, was grabbed by the exquisitely carved Nezha and prompted to speak!
"Sure, Brother Nezha!" Hearing this, Erlang God nodded and said!
He wasn't particularly interested in the Jade Emperor's slip of the tongue!
He was somewhat anxious, worried that after Sect Master Jiang Liu met the Jade Emperor secretly, something unpleasant might happen!
"Alas..." Turning towards his bedchamber, the Jade Emperor sighed secretly!
Regretful, why did he let slip his thoughts so impulsively today!
However, fortunately, the matter isn't too severe!
Shaking his head secretly, the Jade Emperor glanced at the Immortal Maidens and Divine Power Warriors tidying up and left with peace of mind!
Sadly, Yaoji is no longer here, those Immortal Maidens and Warriors tidying up required his instructions!
Returning all the way to his bedchamber, the Jade Emperor sat quietly in his chamber without rushing to rest!
Today is his birthday; in the past, Yaoji always accompanied him, but today, he was alone!
Even though at today's feast, many Immortal Officials and Divine Generals congratulated him, the Jade Emperor felt he had no confidant!
"Alas, why hasn't the great battle between the Ming Sect and Buddhism begun?"
"Moreover, what's this mission Hongjun Ancestor spoke of that Jiang Liu bears, and when will he fulfill it?"
"Without clarity on these matters, I truly can't eat or sleep well!"
Recalling the scene at today's feast, where many Immortal Officials and Divine Generals rolled up their sleeves to urge him to confront the Ming Sect, the Jade Emperor sighed secretly!
Though now the people's hearts could be used, the situation remains dire!
"Jade Emperor, why do you sigh here alone? Is there anything troubling you? Let's talk about it?"
Just when the Jade Emperor sat alone, mulling over the current situation and sighing, a voice suddenly sounded!
Hearing this, the Jade Emperor was slightly startled!
When did someone appear beside him without him knowing?
Turning towards the voice, he saw Jiang Liu, clad in a long robe, hair tied with a blue ribbon, handsome as a young noble from a chaotic world, emerging from the shadows and sitting before the Jade Emperor!
"Jiang Liu!?" Seeing Jiang Liu emerging from the shadows, the Jade Emperor's face slightly changed, exclaiming in surprise!
Evidently, the Jade Emperor didn't expect Jiang Liu to appear before him!
"Jade Emperor, long time no see, I hope you've been well?"
Jiang Liu sat in front of the Jade Emperor without ceremony, first pouring himself a cup of tea, then greeted!
After taking a sip, Jiang Liu secretly pursed his lips!
Though esteemed as the Jade Emperor, his tea was far inferior to Sect Master Tongtian's Great Dao Golden Immortal Tea!
Of course, that Great Dao Golden Immortal Tea was excellent stuff that directly boosted his level to 97; the Jade Emperor not having it is understandable!
