Chapter 115: Peach Banquet Begins

"I have some acquaintance with the Kunpeng; when you were young, I saw you once."

So that's how it is; the Peng Demon King blinked, calculating in his mind how to bring the Ox Demon King and the others to escape.

"Xiao Luo Sha, is this your final choice?" the Netherworld Old Ancestor asked again toward the Rakshasa Woman.

"Replying to Old Ancestor, in this life, the Rakshasa Woman has recognized him." The Rakshasa Woman said firmly.

The comfort on her body and the unknown outcome could not in the slightest affect her inner resolve.

After a long silence, the Netherworld Old Ancestor said: "Good!"

"Xiao Niu Zi, I know your origin, but if you dare to mistreat Xiao Luo Sha, then blame me for being heartless."

The Netherworld Old Ancestor's voice suddenly became extremely oppressive, but this oppression was directed solely at the Ox Demon King; the Rakshasa Woman and the Peng Demon King felt nothing at all.

The Ox Demon King clenched his teeth, neither humble nor arrogant, saying: "Junior understands, will surely not disappoint the senior's trust!"

After hearing the Ox Demon King's reply, the Netherworld Old Ancestor withdrew his pressure, saying: "Only this once; if there is a next time, you who come to the Netherworld Sea of Blood will not be able to leave."

In the next moment, the Ox Demon King and the others only felt their spirits dazed for a moment, yet discovered they had already arrived above the Immortal Realm.

"Finally out!" the Peng Demon King lay on the ground, taking big breaths of air; still, the air of the Immortal Realm is fresh, while the Netherworld Sea of Blood is entirely bloody.

"Indeed." The Ox Demon King also felt deeply moved, "Thanks to the Netherworld Old Ancestor not kicking us a few times; however, if it weren't for us obtaining divine abilities from Chaos Residence, relying solely on our previous strength, we couldn't even walk out of this Netherworld Sea of Blood."

The Rakshasa Woman listening nearby was somewhat puzzled, so she asked: "Chaos Residence? What is that?"

The Ox Demon King and the Peng Demon King exchanged glances and smiled, then gave a rough explanation.

After hearing it, the Rakshasa Woman stared in disbelief with her eyes wide open; in the Three Realms, there actually exists such a miraculous place that can awaken divine abilities!

Seeing the Rakshasa Woman like this, the Ox Demon King gently said: "Wait until later, I will take you there."

He has been away too long; his forces below must be reorganized.

Seeing the couple's deep affection, the Peng Demon King almost vomited up the leftover meal he ate in Chaos Residence.

He flipped up, spread his wings, flew into the air, and said: "Ox Brother, I'm going back first."

Staying here longer, he fears he might choke the dog food to death.

The Ox Demon King nodded and said: "Brother, after we finish our business, we'll gather again at Chaos Residence for a hearty drink!"

Hearing this, the Peng Demon King almost fell from mid-air, his heart feeling somewhat speechless; this is definitely going to Chaos Residence for a hearty drink?

That's going to do some work!

However, Manager Chen let Superman be reborn through shedding the womb and exchanging bones, doing some work, which was worth it!

Nodding, the Peng Demon King flapped his wings once and vanished into the air.

The Ox Demon King gazed affectionately at the Rakshasa Woman and said: "Wife, let's go back."

The Rakshasa Woman reached out, grabbed the Ox Demon King's ear, raised her willow eyebrows, and her face showed several degrees of spiciness: "If next time you dare to leave without telling again, old lady won't let you off!"

"Good, good, good, hiss! Wife, let go, it hurts!"

The Heavenly Court Peach Banquet, the grandest feast in the Three Realms, is also the activity that best showcases the Heavenly Court's grandeur.

Immortals of renown from the Three Realms, with influence, will basically be invited.

Those invited will basically all attend; the reason is simple: the Innate Spiritual Root Peach is unique in the Three Realms, and even if it's only a three-thousand-year-old peach, in the Three Realms it is still rare.

At this moment, streams of light flew from all corners of the Three Realms toward the Heavenly Court.

"Smiling often brings good fortune." The Maitreya Buddha in the sky sat smiling on the cloud platform.

Usually, when immortals come, they first attend the morning assembly at Lingxiao Baodian and then wait for the banquet to begin.

Knowing the inside story, this time he went against the norm, heading straight to the Imperial Kitchen, first disposing of the delicious food, which also counts as not having come in vain.

"A Mi Tuo Fo,

sins, sins." The Maitreya Buddha symbolically forgave himself in his heart for his sins.

Seeing the line of various-colored immortal maidens ahead, he stopped and asked: "Do you know where the Heavenly Court Imperial Kitchen is?"

"Buddha, Buddha Ancestor!" the red-clad immortal maiden among the Seven Fairies gave a start, then after reacting, quickly pointed a direction.

The Maitreya Buddha nodded: "Thank you."

After speaking, auspicious clouds accelerated toward the Imperial Kitchen.

"Strange." The red-clad immortal maiden murmured doubtfully.

The Maitreya Buddha did not go to Lingxiao Baodian, but asked about the Imperial Kitchen: what is it doing there?

"Elder Sister?" the yellow-clad immortal maiden softly asked.

The red-clad immortal maiden shook her head and said: "Nothing, let's go, go pick peaches."

"The Queen Mother said, we need bigger ones."

"Why?" the most clever little purple among the Seven Fairies asked doubtfully.

Weren't the peaches in previous years supposed to be smaller?

"I don't know, but it seems the Queen Mother is full of confidence for this Peach Banquet." The red-clad immortal maiden smiled slightly, leading the crowd toward the Peach Garden.

On the other side, the Maitreya Buddha arrived before the Imperial Kitchen; today's Imperial Kitchen differs from usual, and from afar one can feel a busy and solemn aura.

Palace maids and immortal attendants came and went, each face showing a solemn readiness, after all, today is an extremely important day.

"Buddha Ancestor?"

"Paying respects to Buddha Ancestor!"

Upon seeing the Maitreya Buddha, the palace maids and immortal attendants were startled in their hearts, then immediately began to pay homage.

They did not know the Maitreya Buddha's exact identity, but this appearance alone tells everyone he is from the Western Heaven.

In any case, they cannot compare to him; just paying respects is enough.

The Maitreya Buddha nodded and said with a cheerful smile: "Everyone, rise."

He does not emphasize etiquette.

Arriving at the gate, even without entering, the fragrance drifting from the crack in the door made his heart yearn.

Opening the door with great anticipation, he saw inside steaming hot, a lively scene.

Large tables stood side by side, covered with dishes, as several immortal attendants bustled about preparing ingredients, carrying plates and washing bowls.

The dishes prepared in the inner rooms were also brought out by the immortal attendants and placed separately on the tables.

The door was wide open, the aroma grew richer, directly striking Maitreya Buddha's spirit, his gaze instantly drawn to the table of dishes before him, becoming fixed and intent.

He walked step by step toward the table.

The immortal attendants busy at the doorway, noticing the door had been opened, also noticed Maitreya Buddha's presence, seeing him walk step by step toward the dishes.

Their faces all showed surprise, what is this Buddha up to?

Maitreya Buddha arrived before the table, gazing at the neatly arranged dishes with vibrant colors, the craving worms in his belly instantly hooked.

With a belly that can hold much, he, Maitreya Buddha, can be said to be the Buddhist Sect's greatest eater and most skilled eater among Buddhas.

However, Maitreya Buddha's extremely jovial face furrowed its brows, these were almost all meat dishes.

Though he loves food, he never had the intention to violate Buddhist precepts.

After wandering for a long time in front of several large tables, he finally saw the vegetarian dish section on one table, his eyes lit up, his plump body sprang into action, instantly arriving before the vegetarian table.

He extended his plump, sinful claw toward the vegetarian dishes in the plate.

"This is Palace Guardian Chicken Ding, place it on another table."

On the other side, Sun Wukong poked his head out from the back kitchen, handed the newly prepared dish to the immortal attendant, and instructed.

Still wearing the plain red robe given by Chen Nuo, only now compared to before, today's Sun Wukong wore a brand-new Yu Fang Guan, looking very spirited.
