Chapter 245
Listening to Sun Wukong's meaning, his time of becoming a disciple was precisely the day he arrived at Lingtai Fangcun Mountain.
Having disappeared for ten years, that is to say, he indeed stayed at Lingtai Fangcun Mountain for ten full years, and his Buddhist sect also sent the Six-Eared Macaque into the Oblique Moon Three Stars Cave for ten years.
Yet during such a long period, Patriarch Bodhi actually did not discover the existence of Chaos Residence, which shows that the strength of Chen the shopkeeper is profound and unfathomable.
"If I were to go, how would I find this Chaos Residence?"
Maitreya asked again.
If one does not know the way, it is estimated that even working oneself to death would not find it; on this, Sun Wukong also added.
"Is it that simple?"
After hearing Sun Wukong's words, Maitreya had a bewildered expression, and Chaos Residence was openly swaying in the middle of Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, "Is it not hidden in a dark place?"
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong rolled his eyes: "My master runs a restaurant, placed in the open—do you still want someone to come?"
Maitrey's mouth twitched, good partner!
Opening a shop in the mountain interior—does that just make it obvious? Who opens a restaurant like that? But... Maitreya frowned, since it is out in the open, why haven't Patriarch Bodhi and Tathagata discovered it? But he does not know that the Buddhist sect fundamentally never put Lingtai Fangcun Mountain in their minds, after all, with Patriarch Bodhi presiding there.
Among the Three Realms, the idea that the most dangerous place is the safest place has not yet formed as a concept.
This Lingtai Fangcun Mountain—no search was conducted, and from outside the mountain, there is a shielding array, fundamentally unable to look down from above to see the appearance of Chaos Residence; that place is no different from ordinary trees arranged in rows.
Having obtained what he wanted to know, Maitreya's heart and eyes were full of the desire to go and experience the dishes of Chaos Residence.
But after a second thought, he still suppressed it, after all, wanting to freely enter and exit Ling Mountain is still rather troublesome.
If he were to eat once at Chaos Residence, and as Sun Wukong said, the food is so delicious, would he not become addicted? Then, when the time comes, how could the Buddhist Dharma Feast be eaten to satisfaction? After repeated consideration, Maitreya still decided to wait until after the Buddhist Dharma Feast to go.
In the Great Hall, Haotian was reviewing memorials, the brush writing and drawing on them, yet he seemed somewhat absent-minded.
The Heavenly Court governs the world below; these tedious affairs can be said to be endless.
About time, right? Haotian thought in his heart.
Looking at the two sides of the table before him, still piled high with a large stack of memorials, Haotian sighed, feeling somewhat headache, he put down the brush, looked at the white-bearded old man standing nearby, and Haotian spoke: "Tai Bai, how long have I been reviewing these memorials?" Tai Bai Jin Xing thought for a moment in his heart, then replied: "Your Majesty, it has already been nearly two hours since I reported."
Not yet two hours? Haotian furrowed his brow, without speaking.
Tai Bai Jin Xing, who is extremely skilled at reading words and expressions, seeing this, quickly put on a full face of smiles and said: "Your Majesty, just now I miscalculated; now it is already two hours plus the time of one cup of tea.
Please also punish me, Your Majesty."
After saying this, Tai Bai Jin Xing even more straightforwardly bowed and pleaded guilty.
This is still about right.
Haotian's brow relaxed, he nodded slightly, revealing a satisfied expression—indeed, he is his most trusted Tai Bai.
Understands him!
Placing the brush in clear water to rinse it, then casually flicking it onto the desk, standing up, adjusting his dragon robe.
Haotian waved his hand: "Officials, rise, let's go, scold the Imperial Kitchen."
The Jade Emperor, this position, though highly honored, but being busy day after day is also not an easy matter; after so long, it is still better to first go to the Imperial Kitchen to eat a meal before speaking.
After eating the Peach Banquet once, Sun Wukong's dishes have already become his daily necessity.
Haotian was striding like a dragon and tiger, planning to exit the hall, but was then blocked by a lone figure; upon closer look, the visitor was Yaochi.
"How did you come here?"
Haotian said coldly.
Yaochi did not reply to this sentence, but instead smiled slightly and asked: "Haotian, where did you guess I just went?"
The Tai Bai Jin Xing following behind Haotian, his body involuntarily trembled, directly calling her name—this is a great disrespect to the Jade Emperor!
Usually, the lady does not always address Your Majesty? Why did she change her tone today? Tai Bai Jin Xing felt uneasy, he always felt he would be silenced.
Regarding Yaochi's address, Haotian did not care much.
, in private, Yaochi has always called him this way, long accustomed.
Tai Bai Jin Xing is also my most loyal subordinate; hearing it, he also finds it no problem.
The reason I trust him is precisely because he never speaks out of turn.
"Could it be that you went to the Imperial Kitchen?"
Haotian said unconsciously; he had not eaten, so his first thought was this.
"No.
"
Yaochi shook her head, her face showing a bit more pride: "I went to Chaos Residence."
Chaos Residence? Haotian's eyes showed a bit more surprise—this is not the place Sun Wukong said, his master's dwelling? "When did you go?"
Haotian's tone was somewhat urgent.
"Just now."
Yaochi smiled with narrowed eyes, her demeanor completely different from her usual dignified and proper self.
Seeing this, Tai Bai Jin Xing became even more anxious, fundamentally not daring to lift his eyes to look more, fearing to offend Yaochi.
"Lady today, what on earth has happened to you, why are you so lively? 'Why don't you bring me along?!'
"Haotian shouted loudly, so excited he forgot his own imperial self-reference.
Chaos Residence!
That is the place the monkey spoke of, possessing peerless delicacy; Yaochi is too hateful, actually thinking only of herself!
Haotian was very angry.
Yaochi rolled her eyes, indifferent: "You are a busy person, what did I call you to do?"
Haotian opened his mouth, yet did not know what to say.
Because what Yaochi said was too correct; now his desk still has a large stack of memorials unreviewed!
After a pause, -Wu Tian eagerly asked: "Yaochi, what do you think of Chaos Residence, exactly how is it?"
Absolute Delicacy
Yaochi's face was filled with anticipation, using only four words to describe it.
"Tai Bai, you go first."
Seeing that a sensitive topic had been brought up, Haotian waved his hand dismissively.
"Yes, your humble servant takes his leave."
Tai Bai Jin Xing, as if granted a great pardon, nodded repeatedly and hurried away without looking back, though he still harbored a slight doubt in his heart.
What exactly is the Chaos Residence mentioned by His Majesty and the Empress, that it would cause His Majesty to become so excited!
"Yaochi, tell me in detail quickly."
Wu Tian gave a hehe laugh, and the imperial aura instantly dissipated.
This somewhat flattering posture instead made Yaochi feel a bit reminiscent of the past.
Previously, she had received some favors from Dao Ancestor Lao Ye, and Haotian had also followed her around like that, eagerly wanting to join in.
Her brows and eyes showed a touch of self-satisfaction, Yaochi chuckled lightly and said: "The Chaos Residence is exactly as Sun Wukong described—no difference at all, the food is supremely delicious."
"That Chen the shopkeeper's cooking skill can be said to be unmatched in the Three Realms, his cultivation is even more profound and unfathomable."
"Profound and unfathomable—how so?"
Compared to whether it's tasty or not, Wu Tian still cared more about this so-called Chen the shopkeeper's cultivation, after all, it's better to know the roots of such a mysterious existence.
Upon mentioning this, Yaochi's expression turned solemn, she sighed and said: "I feel that with my cultivation, if I were to oppose Chen the shopkeeper, I would be instantly suppressed."
"Are you sure?"
Haotian stared in shock, blurted out.
"Certainly, very true."
Haotian stood with his mouth open, somewhat speechless; although his cultivation was higher than Yaochi's, the gap wasn't particularly large.
Even Yaochi would be instantly killed, and even if he went up, he probably wouldn't fare much better—at least he'd last only one more second before being suppressed.
Are the supreme beings between heaven and earth only Dao Ancestor Lao Ye and the Six Honored Saints? Why has such a terrifying existence appeared?
