~8 min read 1,516 words

Heavenly Court, Flat Peach Garden.

Tang An held Chenxiang, looking left and right, mother and son were the same, their eyes shining.

After all, they hadn't seen such big peaches before.

"Wukong, did you eat such good ones before?" Tang An casually picked one and handed it to Chenxiang, letting him hold it and eat.

Then, she picked a bigger one for herself.

After all, she couldn't wrong the child, and she couldn't wrong herself either.

Chenxiang looked at the one in his arms, then at the one in Tang An's hand, and at his young age, he patted his forehead with his little fleshy hand, quite a mature sense of speechlessness.

After all, having such a godmother, you really can't blame the child for being precocious.

Sun Wukong was a regular customer, coming in and directly telling Tang An which peaches were the biggest and best.

As for how they got in...

That had to be said about how the immortals and land gods guarding the Flat Peach Garden fell asleep.

How did they sleep? They were young, so they fell asleep as soon as they lay down, what else could it be?

"Master, why let Chenxiang come here?"

"Just to let the child eat a few flat peaches?" Yang Jian didn't understand, if it was just to let the child eat a few flat peaches, why did she keep feeding Chenxiang water?

Tang An took back the milk bottle and let little Chenxiang sit on the ground, continuing to hold and gnaw on the flat peach.

"Still missing some." Tang An pondered, always feeling the atmosphere wasn't enough.

"What?" Yang Jian didn't keep up with Tang An's train of thought for a while.

Tang An picked many flat peaches, all piled up beside Chenxiang, and even set up a photo spot.

Then, click-click took photos of Chenxiang, leaving them as a souvenir. After all, it was not common for a child to be able to leave photos in the Heavenly Court when young.

"Master?"

"Shh~" Tang An waved at them, signaling them all to hide behind the tree.

Little Chenxiang looked at so many peaches, eating so forgetfully that he didn't notice there were no adults around him at all.

Suddenly, a super loud speaker sound echoed in the Flat Peach Garden.

"Someone~"

"Someone is stealing flat peaches! Someone~!!!"

Chenxiang listened to the familiar voice, looked up in confusion, somewhat panicked and not understanding what was happening.

Yang Jian's mouth twitched, there was a sense of speechlessness rushing to the top of his head. It was truly worthy of being something only Master could do.

"Master, he... is still a child."

"I know, isn't this to let him adapt to the dangers of the human world in advance."

"He has to learn from his mistakes."

Yang Jian was speechless, casting a sympathetic look at little Chenxiang.

The storm he needed to experience in his life was about to begin.

Little Chenxiang couldn't find the adults, scared to "wa wa cry."

Plus the heavenly soldiers who heard the movement here rushed over, that formation scared the child into crying even harder.

With this scare, plus drinking too much water, the child didn't control his pee.

"Very good, marked another location." Tang An was very satisfied. 【365

Yang Jian wanted to go save Chenxiang, but he was afraid of disrupting Tang An's plan.

"Master, why are you so obsessed with having Chenxiang mark the location? Is it possible you mean marking it with urine?"

"Indeed."

"But Chenxiang isn't Xiaotian Quan; can he even smell his own urine?"

"Sigh, dark history is something everyone remembers vividly." Tang An retracted the megaphone and immediately added, "Besides, didn't we also pair him with a spirit dog?"

Yang Jian was speechless, "Master... could it be that you want the Heavenly Soldiers to take Chenxiang away?"

"Ah?" Tang An finally came to her senses and clapped her hands! "Oh my, I almost forgot about the child."

Yang Jian closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He felt as if he finally understood the feelings of all those monsters who had been tormented during the Eighty-One Tribulations.

To think that a dignified Judicial God could empathize with monsters—that was truly thanks to her.

Tang An looked at Sun Wukong, and Sun Wukong understood, immediately freezing those Heavenly Soldiers in place.

Afterward, Yang Jian cast a spell, and their group left the place. They even made sure to take away the flat peaches that had been stained with urine on the ground.

Where to take them? Naturally, to the people who should receive them.

A secluded spot in the Heavenly Court.

Tang An put on gloves, picked out those flat peaches, handed them to Wukong, and gave him some instructions.

Sun Wukong covered his mouth and snickered, "Master, you really never forget about the Jade Emperor, do you?"

"Sigh, who told me to feel sorry for my dear son's great-uncle."

"Alright, alright, Master, just wait for my good news." Sun Wukong then turned into a gust of wind and left the place.

When he appeared again, he had transformed into a fairy, holding a large platter of flat peaches in his hands.

"Oh? The flat peaches sent by the Queen Mother to help me cool off and relieve my worries?"

"Yes~"

The Jade Emperor picked up a flat peach without any suspicion, until...

He smelled a scent he found all too familiar.

"Smack!" The Jade Emperor slammed the table, "You Tang girl, you actually... you..."

The Jade Emperor wanted to lose his temper, but seeing the puzzled gazes of everyone present, he couldn't expose his dark history and had to swallow his anger.

Frustrated and angry, he waved his hand, telling Sun Wukong, who was disguised as a fairy, to quickly take the flat peaches away.

Seeing that the plan hadn't succeeded, Sun Wukong asked for Tang An's thoughts.

But Tang An said that the matter had already been accomplished.

After all, her having Sun Wukong deliver the flat peaches to the Jade Emperor was merely to tell him that she had arrived, and that she had brought Chenxiang with her.

Regarding the Heavenly Law, she and Chenxiang were already tied together. In the future, the Queen Mother's Flat Peach Garden would inevitably face such a mess as well.

What she wanted was for the Jade Emperor to turn a blind eye when dealing with this matter in the future. Otherwise, she held the Jade Emperor's dark history in her hands.

Within the Three Realms, others wouldn't dare to stir up the Jade Emperor's dark history, but she really dared to hold a megaphone and shout it throughout the Three Realms.

As for how much of her intended meaning the Jade Emperor could grasp, that would depend on the tacit understanding they had exchanged regarding the situation when she once invited him for tea.

In any case, the Jade Emperor would certainly be able to understand the threat of that final layer of dark history.

After marking the second location, Tang An brought Chenxiang to the third location.

Where was it?

Doushuai Palace.

Tang An greeted the Qingniu Jing warmly and presented two baskets of sugar mandarins.

"Where is my Senior Uncle? Is he in the palace?"

The Qingniu Jing said no, but his eyes signaled Tang An to go inside.

"Alright, then we'll come back next time."

Tang An turned to look at Yang Jian and the others, signaling that they could leave.

After they left, Taishang Laojun appeared, stroking his beard.

"You ox, how could you so easily..."

Before he could finish, Tang An suddenly popped her head out from behind Taishang Laojun.

"Senior Uncle!" She slapped Taishang Laojun hard, "Surprised? Shocked? Did you miss me?"

Taishang Laojun was so startled he took two small steps back, looking as if he hadn't recovered his wits. "You child, why are you still so mischievous?"

"Sigh, it's because you wanted to play hide-and-seek with me, otherwise how could I have scared you?"

Tang An was not at all polite; she sat down on the ground next to the ox and started eating sugar mandarins with the Qingniu Jing.

Taishang Laojun knew that Tang An's visit here definitely meant no good.

"Speak, why have you come to my Doushuai Palace?"

"To stock up on goods."

"Stock up?"

"Yes." Tang An signaled Taishang Laojun to look over; Sun Wukong, Yang Jian, and Chenxiang, along with the four of them including Nezha, were sneaking into Doushuai Palace on tiptoe.

"Oh my, how could you..."

"Senior Uncle, stop acting. You're old now, why make me play along with your drama?" Tang An exposed him directly, "How old are you? Can you be a bit more mature?"

Taishang Laojun cleared his throat, "I'm telling you, those pills shouldn't be eaten indiscriminately."

"Sigh, they won't kill anyone; hasn't one already been eaten to create a Great Sage Equal to Heaven?" Tang An wiped her hands on the Qingniu Jing, "Thanks."

The Qingniu Jing looked at the fur on his body that had been stained yellow, "You're... you're welcome?"
