Chapter 493: The Jade Emperor's Temper, the Melon Immortal of the Heavenly Court

Journey to the West World, Heavenly Court, High Heaven Palace.

"Jade Emperor, that Scripture Seeker Xuanzang has come to the Heavenly Court."

The brothers Clairvoyant and Clairaudient said together.

The moment Xuanzang arrived at the Heavenly Court, they had come over.

What was the Jade Emperor doing at this moment?

In the High Heaven Palace, beautiful immortal maidens swayed their graceful figures, beaming with joy; every smile and frown was soul-stirring.

For immortals, a long lifespan is incredibly boring; one must always find some amusement in an eternal life.

And the immortals in the Heavenly Court now are mostly those who ascended from Renjian, so naturally, they have picked up quite a bit of the atmosphere of the human world.

The Jade Emperor was eating crystal grapes and drinking nectar, his face flushed, possessing quite the air of a decadent monarch.

"Oh."

Hearing this, the Jade Emperor only responded indifferently, unconcerned, as if he had not yet collected his thoughts.

Immediately, his eyes narrowed, a sharp glint appearing in them, and he said: "Say that again? Gaoming? Gaojue."

These two names were precisely the names of Clairaudient and Clairvoyant.

"Your Majesty, the Scripture Seeker has ascended to the Heavenly Court and is currently strolling around," said Clairvoyant.

The Jade Emperor found it strange and said:

"Why is this Xuanzang not seeking scriptures, but coming to the Heavenly Court instead? And what are the little soldiers at the Southern Heaven Gate doing, how did they let him in? Who is on duty at the Southern Heaven Gate today? Neglecting their duty—cast them out of the Heavenly Court and send them to the mortal world for reincarnation."

"..." The gathered immortals.

Is the Jade Emperor's temper a bit too hot lately? He talks about casting people down to the mortal world at the drop of a hat.

First it was Leizhenzi, then the Eight Immortals, and now he is not even sparing the little soldiers.

"Shall we drive him out?" Li Jing asked tentatively.

"Li Jing, then you go drive him out?" the Jade Emperor said.

Li Jing was about to agree, but then he remembered that Xuanzang is now a Great Luo Golden Immortal, someone he cannot afford to provoke.

If he were to get slapped twice, his lifelong reputation would be gone, and he would be mocked by his colleagues in the Heavenly Court in the future.

Seeing this, the Jade Emperor understood Li Jing's thoughts perfectly, waved his hand, and said:

"Xuanzang is, after all, not Sun Wukong; that monkey acts without regard for propriety or rules. As long as Xuanzang does not cause any trouble, let him be."

"The Jade Emperor is wise," Li Jing hurriedly flattered.

Meanwhile, on a seat at the other end, Yang Jian's Primordial Spirit left his body and departed from the High Heaven Palace.

Xuanzang was livestreaming while strolling through the Heavenly Court.

He actually encountered many immortals, though most were riding cranes through the sky, wandering beyond the world.

There were also some immortals who greeted Xuanzang, as Xuanzang was a new face after all.

This Thirty-Second Heaven is a world unto itself, boundless in scope; even if Xuanzang flew at full speed, it would take a long time to leave.

Moreover, there are a great many immortals living in the Thirty-Second Heaven; besides the High Heaven Palace, there are many immortal mountains and caves located there, inhabited by Loose Immortals, Heavenly Immortals, and Earth Immortals who have ascended to the Heavenly Realm.

"This fellow immortal, you're a new face."

At this moment, a warm voice rang out beside Xuanzang.

Xuanzang looked over and saw a young immortal wearing a multicolored robe; interestingly, there was half a melon skin on the immortal's head.

"Greetings, fellow immortal. May I ask who you are?" Xuanzang asked curiously.

"I am Gua Xian," the young immortal smiled.

"Gua Xian, that is truly a name that fits. I am Xuanzang, a mere Loose Immortal," Xuanzang said.

"So it is Immortal Xuanzang."

Gua Xian cupped his hands, not paying attention to Xuanzang's identity; after all, there are at least eight or ten thousand Loose Immortals in the Thirty-Second Heaven.

There are plenty of people named Xuanzang; it is not that easy to run into the Scripture Seeker.

"Fellow Immortal Xuanzang, did you pull some strings to get in?" Gua Xian asked mysteriously.

Xuanzang was bewildered and asked:

"Why do you say that, Gua Xian?"

"Hehe, Fellow Immortal Xuanzang, you are a new face. As the Gua Xian of the Heavenly Court, I know most of the Loose Immortals.

And there have been very few ascensions to the Upper Realm in the last five hundred years, so you cannot have ascended for more than five hundred years.

Generally, immortals who ascend from the lower realms, even geniuses of the Human Race, start as Heavenly Soldiers.

To get rid of the status of a Heavenly Soldier, it takes at least a thousand years at the fastest."

Hearing this, Xuanzang understood what Gua Xian meant, so he went along with the flow and said:

"To tell you the truth, that War God Yang Jian and I have some connection."

Gua Xian's eyes brightened, and he said:

"War God Yang Jian, my friend Xuanzang, your background is strong indeed. With Yang Jian covering for you, you will surely be officially ranked among the immortals in the future. I offer my congratulations in advance."

The so-called being ranked among the immortals refers to those who are officially part of the establishment; most of them are in the High Heaven Palace.

Most immortals are outside the High Heaven Palace, living in the Thirty-Second Heaven, but they do not have the qualifications to enter the High Heaven Palace.

"Ahem, keep it low-key, keep it low-key. Although Yang Jian is the War God of the Heavenly Realm, he is selfless and impartial; I usually don't talk about our relationship," Xuanzang said.

"Understood, understood," Gua Xian nodded repeatedly.

"Hahaha..."

On a cloud not far away, a little girl who looked like she was carved from pink jade was seen clutching her stomach and laughing.

This little girl had red lips and white teeth, fair skin, was extremely cute, and was wearing Burning lotus armor.

Although he had not yet seen the Nezha of this world, Xuanzang recognized him at a glance.

"Third Prince Nezha!" Gua Xian's face revealed shock.

"This little immortal pays respects to the Third Prince!"

Gua Xian hurriedly bowed!

Xuanzang, however, said, "Little child, what are you laughing at?"

At the same time, in the Live Broadcast Room, the group members also saw the delicate and pretty little Nezha.

Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Damn, this little Nezha is too cute, and she's a little girl too, tsk tsk!"

Exploding Heavens Faction Leader: "Ye Hei, you seem to have a very criminal idea."

Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Hehe."

Number One Golden Core of the Nine Provinces: "This Nezha is so cute, I really want to pinch her cheeks."

Demon Queen: "Pah, you female hooligan."

Spirit Hall Pope: "So cute!"

Diviner: "You think she's cute, but she is extremely smooth when she pulls out Dragon tendons."

Demon Queen: "No way."

Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "Indeed, although Nezha is a child, her aura of ferocity is extremely heavy, rarely matched by anyone."

Spring and Autumn Sword Deity: "Who could imagine that such a small child actually killed the Dragon Prince!"

Bad Commander: "If only Li Xingyun had such ferocity as Nezha."

Wudang Old Immortal: "Ahem, this is the Third Prince Nezha of the Great Altar of the Sea, this old man has truly opened his eyes."

Zui Ai He Shounai: "@Motong Nezha, hurry and look at another version of yourself, Brother Nezha."

Motong Nezha: "I'm watching, no need to @ me. Shitou Ge. I am a little monster, carefree and free."

At this moment, Nezha had a piece of Dog Tail Grass in her mouth, looking completely indifferent.

However, it had to be said that he was very envious of this Nezha's image.

Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "Nezha, you don't need to be depressed; though both are Nezha, their fates are vastly different."

The Nezha on my side cut off her Flesh to return to her father and scraped off her bones to return to her mother, killed the Dragon Prince, was forced to commit suicide, her father didn't love her, and her mother was not around.

Although you were shunned by others when you were young, you have a complete family, parents who love you, and good friends."

Motong Nezha: "Brother Xuanzang is right, I am not envious at all."

At this moment, Nezha felt warm inside, and suddenly felt a bit of pity for the other Nezha.

If he did not have the support and tolerance of his parents, to what point would he have gone?

I fear he would have become a great demon king that heaven and earth could not tolerate.
