Chapter 33: Celestial Hound
After Sun Wukong left, Ao Shun, the Dragon King of the North Sea, was the first to react and said: "Brother, should we still report to the Heavenly Court to capture them?"
Ao Guang gave Ao Shun a foolish look.
"They just gave us eight flat peaches, and we still want to deal with them—do you still have any conscience as a member of the Dragon Clan?"
Ao Shun's face turned bitter: "I don't want to either, but what about the Buddhist Sect's plan?"
"Then what do you suggest we do? Trade eight nine-thousand-year-old flat peaches for a magical artifact none of us can use—are we losing out?"
Ao Ming: "Pure profit!"
"They neither forced us nor damaged our Dragon Palace, harmed our sea clan, and even reminded me to issue salary silver to those below before leaving—what do you say, how can we complain?" Ao Guang also felt helpless.
"It's not you who's going to file the complaint, so of course you can talk easily without back pain—if you're so capable, go up there yourself!"
"Then what should we do?" Ao Shun also knew he was in the wrong and felt somewhat ashamed.
"Do nothing." Ao Guang calmed down.
The Buddhist Sect only said they would investigate after the monkey arrived, so he might as well wait until things flare up again before filing a complaint.
Upon thinking this through, Ao Guang stood up and left.
"Where are you going, elder brother?"
"To issue salary silver!"
In the end, the flat peaches were divided: each Dragon King got two—one for personal consumption to heal injuries, and one to give to their favored offspring.
Guanjiangkou—since the last time they exterminated Lingji, Yang Jian began consolidating his Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and this place has remained under lockdown ever since.
But today, two sneaky figures ran out.
"Celestial Hound, it's still you who has a way!" The lovely maiden praised, looking toward the black slender hound beside her.
"Of course, you don't even see who this master's dog is!" The black dog spoke human words, a hint of pride on its face.
"Not to mention the barrier set up by the master—I even know what he ate when he farted!"
Yang Chan: "You're truly disgusting!"
"We agreed—you'd take this master to a great feast, and you said beforehand not to fool the master with excrement!" The Celestial Hound said.
"Don't worry!" Yang Chan confidently patted her chest and said: "Guaranteed you won't be disappointed!"
Just thinking about that bowl of beef noodles from ten years ago truly made his heart race and his soul wander—heaven knows how she endured these ten years.
Remembering, Yang Chan was nothing but a handful of bitter tears.
Today, even if the Heavenly King himself came, she wouldn't let anyone stop her from going out to eat noodles!
Finally, she came out.
Liu Yanchang's heart pounded with excitement—he was originally just an ordinary follower of the Bhikkhu teaching, but one day Patriarch Zhunti suddenly said he would grant him an opportunity and marry him to Yang Chan, Yang Jian's sister.
He was told to wait here, saying that as long as he spoke according to her words, he would surely win her heart—but who would have thought this wait would last ten years?
Damn it, leaving me hanging this long—after we marry, I'll show you how I deal with you!
Liu Yanchang resentfully thought, lowered his head to tidy his clothes, and finished preparing everything.
"Aunt..."
Raising his head to shout, he just happened to see Yang Chan dragging the Celestial Hound flying into the cloud heights.
"... I Ni Ma!"
"Is this the shop you meant?"
The Celestial Hound looked at this place, dazed—just this decoration, and he hasn't even transformed into human form to go to those county-town restaurants yet.
"Don't judge by the simple decor—once you eat what's inside, you'll never forget it in this lifetime!" Yang Chan unconsciously smacked her lips.
"Is it really that miraculous?" The Celestial Hound clearly didn't believe, walking in with steps that ignored all six relatives.
It was determined to see what this place actually had to offer!
Chen Nuo lifted his eyes and just saw a person and a dog in form, smiled slightly, and said: "Sorry, pets are not allowed inside!"
Yang Chan quickly shook her head and said: "It's not a pet.
"
Chen Nuo said without hesitation: "Sorry, this shop does not sell dog meat, nor do we accept dog meat!"
Celestial Hound: "..."
"This master is the Immortal Dog of the Three Realms!" The Celestial Hound roared excitedly.
"It can also speak?" Chen Nuo raised his brow.
"It's also here to eat." Yang Chan said softly.
Good partner, Chen Nuo nodded—these days, dogs and humans eat together at the same table.
Chen Nuo glanced again at the girl, felt she looked familiar, thought carefully, and realized—wasn't this Yang Chan, who bought beef noodles ten years ago?
Then this dog must be the Celestial Hound?
Unexpected that after so long, he'd still come back.
"Oh, it's you!" Chen Nuo nodded to Yang Chan: "Then what would you two like to eat?"
The Celestial Hound said arrogantly: "Bring all the delicious food here to this master!"
"Sorry, this shop does not sell excrement!" Chen Nuo said lightly.
"This master does not eat excrement!" The Celestial Hound roared directly.
He is the Immortal Dog of the Three Realms—eating excrement and such is only something from before he became immortal, his youthful days!
"Each person in this shop may order only one dish per day!"
"One dish?" The Celestial Hound froze, then scoffed: "Not even enough to fill this master's teeth gaps!"
Chen Nuo said nothing more—after all, rarity makes things valuable.
"Be quiet for me!" Yang Chan punched the Celestial Hound's dog head, then immediately smiled slightly and said: "Boss, I'd like a bowl of beef noodles."
"There are many new items in my shop, don't you want to take a look?"
Yang Chan shook her head, indicating refusal.
After finishing the beef noodles, that guy of second brother was still proudly saying it was talent, and she really didn't believe it!
She also definitely had to eat something out of it!
"Give that whatever menu to Bei Da Ye!" Xiao Tian's tone remained carefree and arrogant.
Chen Nuo wasn't angry either, casually throwing the menu over; such a despicable dog, if not for Erlang Shen's pet, who knows how many times it would have been stewed into dog meat.
Seeing the dish names listed above, Xiao Tian drooled, looking like everything was especially delicious, alas he could only order one!
After pondering for a while, the dog's paw pressed on a dish and said: "This is it!"
Chen Nuo looked, it turned out to be Fragrant Crispy Fried Chicken, only without moving, but instead opening his mouth to say: "Pay first!"
Yang Chan nodded, placed her hand on the crystal ball, and transferred one-tenth of her magic power.
Xiao Tian leapt high, jumped onto the counter, extended his dog paw, imitating properly, the next moment, the dog's face went dazed.
"Shopkeeper, are you not playing with Bei Da Ye?" Xiao Tian roared loudly!
"Eating a meal requires one Golden Immortal-level magic treasure from you!"
Chen Nuo spread his hands, ignoring Xiao Tian's emotions.
"No way, this is just the shop's rule, each person's fee is random, is it your own bad luck to blame anyone?"
"This is a black shop, it's a black shop!" Xiao Tian shouted loudly, his dog face filled with human-like righteous indignation.
"Shopkeeper Chen, I'm back again!" At this moment, a simple-minded yet slightly cheeky voice suddenly came, followed by another person entering the shop, it was Tian Peng.
Seeing one dog and one maiden, Tian Peng was slightly stunned.
"Yang Chan, Xiao Tian? How are you here? Could it be that Yang Jian is also here?"
Xiao Tian let out a cold snort: "Bei Da Ye's master is in seclusion, comprehending the Great Luo Golden Xian Jing!"
Tian Peng nodded without saying anything else, he also knew about that earth-shattering event ten years ago.
Then he looked toward Chen Nuo, fawningly smiling: "Shopkeeper Chen, yesterday was truly thanks to you, if not for your two divine powers, I wouldn't have been able to see you!"
After speaking, he added oil and vinegar to retell yesterday's matter with Guanyin once again.
