Chapter 750

"Did you not tell him my words, that I wanted to invite him back to cooperate?"

At this time, Li Jing's face became somewhat ugly.

If one were to really count it, this matter was still his fault.

If it weren't for his arrogance, relying on his status to threaten Tianpeng and give him a show of force, I fear it wouldn't have been like this.

Understanding that he couldn't hide it anyway, Li Jing simply knelt down and took the initiative to plead guilty.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this minister is guilty!"

The Jade Emperor was confused; if you have a problem, just say it!

Guilty, guilty, what is the meaning of saying these polite words? Truly annoying!

Although he complained in his heart, the Jade Emperor still asked calmly on the surface: "What happened? Minister, you can tell me slowly."

At this time, Li Jing no longer hid anything.

He explained clearly how he went to invite Tianpeng, what he said, why it caused a dispute, and how he was defeated.

Hearing this, the Jade Emperor's expression sank instantly, and he was furious.

"Unreasonable!"

"Li Jing, do you know you have committed a great crime!"

The Jade Emperor was truly furious at this moment, never expecting that he trusted Li Jing so much, but he was so arrogant.

He botched the matter and made the Heavenly Court lose an excellent opportunity.

This concerns the survival of the entire Heavenly Court; he never thought Li Jing would be so reckless.

Although whether Tianpeng joins the Eastern Tour is not crucial.

But if Tianpeng's side is willing to cooperate, the Heavenly Court could have one more point of strength, and even one more path.

What the Jade Emperor values most is not Tianpeng as a person, but the connections he involves.

Tianpeng is not only a nominal disciple of Saint Tongtian now, but also has a close relationship with Sun Wukong, and Sun Wukong has a very good relationship with Dizang, and Dizang's prestige in the underworld remains undiminished; perhaps he could rely on Dizang to persuade that great power of the Earth Dao.

Being able to trigger a series of chain reactions through Tianpeng is what the Jade Emperor values most.

There is another point, because Tianpeng is also a guest of that grocery store, and a very early batch of guests.

Ever since he witnessed the existence of the grocery store, the Jade Emperor has regarded Wu Feng as the most authoritative existence in the Primordial World.

How could he not value someone who has a relationship with Wu Feng?

But all of this was completely ruined by Li Jing; how could he, as the Jade Emperor, not be annoyed?

The immortals saw the Jade Emperor's anger was so huge and were all startled.

This was the first time they had seen the Jade Emperor get so angry; that gaze even felt like it could swallow them alive.

Li Jing's heart was also cold, and he finally experienced what is called the anger of a king.

But at the moment, he did not know what to do, and even the immortals who were on good terms with him did not dare to stand out to help him speak.

In the large Lingxiao Treasure Hall, no one spoke for a time.

The Jade Emperor looked at this scene and could not help but feel there was truly no one to use.

These people did not understand his mind at all.

Although he was very disappointed in Li Jing, he did not really intend to do anything to him; after all, this is a time when people are needed.

So he looked at Li Jing and asked: "You have caused a great disaster; I will let you atone for your crimes with merit, are you willing?"

Hearing this, Li Jing was moved to tears.

"This minister accepts the order!"

Although he did not know what it was for, Li Jing did not want to miss this opportunity again.

Subsequently, the Jade Emperor sent out a divine light and said to Li Jing: "I appoint you as the Eastern Tour escort messenger, and temporarily remove your position as Great Marshal. How about that?"

Hearing that he was to become the escort messenger for the Eastern Tour, Li Jing understood that this was a bitter task and might even be threatened by the Fomen.

And without a position, Li Jing's status would naturally not be able to suppress the demons in the world.

But even so, Li Jing did not dare to refuse.

It looks dangerous, but it also has great opportunities; perhaps he could use this to achieve higher accomplishments.

Thus, Li Jing did not hesitate at all and immediately bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your great kindness!"

Seeing Li Jing was still sensible, the Jade Emperor did not continue to pursue punishment.

Instead, he looked at Nezha beside Li Jing.

Nezha also understood that the Jade Emperor was waiting for him to report the situation.

So he truthfully told everything he encountered when going to Mount Huaguo.

Hearing that General Wujing could actually fight Nezha to a draw, the immortals felt it was incredible.

Only the Jade Emperor felt like a mirror in his heart, and he had deep reverence for Wu Feng.

"The Senior is worthy of being a supreme existence!"

"In such a short time, he could make Wujing have such an improvement."

Subsequently, the Jade Emperor looked at Nezha and gave a new task.

"Nezha, there was some misunderstanding between your father and Tianpeng before; you go again, invite Tianpeng, no..."

"Invite Sun Wukong, Wujing, and Jin Chanzi to come to the Heavenly Palace together; I will set up a banquet and will not treat them poorly!"

Hearing that the Jade Emperor actually wanted to invite Sun Wukong and his group to a banquet, this made Nezha surprised.

The previous dissatisfaction also vanished at this moment.

But at the same time, he thought of the words Tianpeng said before leaving.

Suddenly, he felt he understood less and less about everything.

Originally, he did not want to think so much, but now he could not help but think.

But with the order in front, Nezha immediately agreed.

"This minister obeys the decree!"

Subsequently, Nezha quickly arrived outside the South Heaven Gate and jumped down.

Li Jing returned to his mansion to prepare for the Eastern Tour.

At Mount Huaguo, a guest arrived just in time.

White Dragon Ao Lie followed the Azure Dragon's arrangement and came to Mount Huaguo again, where he was warmly received. ===== CHAPTER 752 =====
