Nezha continued to guard the South Heavenly Gate, while Yang Jian led Zhou Ping to the Lingxiao Palace to report to the two Heavenly Venerables about the battle between Avalon and the Kexi.

“Ah Jin, my teacher is a bit socially awkward. If the Celestial Venerable asks him any questions, please take good care of him.”

Lin Qiye approached Yang Jian and whispered a reminder.

"Don't worry, brother, I'll take good care of the sword immortal. You go with him, I'll be there shortly."

A kind-faced old man, holding a whisk and dressed in white, slowly approached the crowd.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am Taibai Jinxing, sent by the Jade Emperor to welcome you distinguished guests. Your lodgings have been arranged. Please follow me."

As the chief diplomat of the Heavenly Court, Taibai Jinxing has a kind face and a natural affinity.

Led by Venus, the Nightfall Squad arrived at an antique courtyard, where each person had their own room.

Not far from the courtyard was a fairy pavilion, where several fairies were vigorously fanning Cao Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, with large fans.

As the fairies continued to fan the flames, the black, malevolent energy on Cao Yuan's body began to dissipate bit by bit, in a continuous cycle, until it was controlled to a stable level.

"So this is Cao Cao, he knows how to enjoy himself." Baili Pangpang said with a smile.

"The Celestial Venerables are searching for a way to cure your friend. Since this is your first time in the Heavenly Court, please stay here for now."

"If you need anything, you can come to me directly. The Heavenly Court is very large, so please don't wander around aimlessly, lest you get lost," Taibai Jinxing said with a smile.

Gu Tianchen said, "Don't worry, old immortal, we're not those kinds of people."

Venus's lips twitched slightly. "The person who called me 'Old Immortal' last time used the same words, and then turned around and caused a huge disturbance in the Heavenly Palace."

Lin Qiye said earnestly, "Please rest assured, Lord Taibai, as the captain of the Nightfall Squad, I will definitely not let them run around and will keep them in check."

“Alright, since that’s the case, please rest here, my friends. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now.”

After Venus left, the members of the Nightfall Squad each chose a room to stay in.

A yin-yang symbol flashed, and Baili Pangpang disappeared.

……

Heavenly Court, Mi Luo Palace.

Yuanshi Tianzun, dressed in white robes, stood on the edge of the altar, hands behind his back, looking down at the thirty-six heavenly palaces and seventy-two temples of the Heavenly Court.

A chubby figure flashed and appeared behind him.

Yuanshi Tianzun turned to look at Baili Pangpang and smiled slightly, saying slowly, "Welcome back."

Baili Pangpang looked at Yuanshi Tianzun and asked, "Why did you summon me here in such a hurry?"

Yuanshi Tianzun said, "Since the last war of the gods, the other divine kingdoms in the mist have formed an alliance and are secretly plotting against our Heavenly Court."

"Although the two Ancestral Witches, Zhurong and Shebishi, have joined, there are now many more traces of monsters of the Ke type in the mist. They are all at the Supreme God Realm."

"You saw it this time too, how difficult it is to deal with the supreme god monster of the Kree type. We urgently need the combat power of the supreme god level to fight against it."

“You, the Lingbao Celestial Venerable of Great Xia, should also return. Great Xia needs the Lingbao Celestial Venerable.”

Baili Pangpang stood side by side with Yuanshi Tianzun, looking at the breathtaking celestial scenery below, and slowly said, "Now is not the time."

Yuanshi Tianzun smiled and said, "I know you have your own plans. Since that's the case, then do as you wish. Until then, Daode, Zhurong, and I will hold them off."

Baili Pangpang said earnestly, "Thank you for your hard work for the sake of all living beings."

Yuanshi Tianzun smiled and said, "Didn't you also step into the cycle of true self for the sake of all living beings?"

Baili Pangpang smiled and looked at Yuanshi Tianzun, asking, "Are the things I asked for ready?"

With a gentle pinch of his fingers, the Primordial Celestial Venerable conjured a black jade pendant brimming with Daoist energy and imbued with the power of creation, which appeared out of thin air and floated in the void.

"The Dao Source Jade, which can revive a Dao Body nine times, is such a precious item that you're going to give to Lin Qiye or Gu Tianchen?"

Yuanshi Tianzun looked at Baili Pangpang with curiosity, and with a flick of his finger, the Dao Source Jade floated out and landed in Baili Pangpang's palm.

Baili Pangpang held the Daoyuan Jade in his palm and slowly said, "None of them."

"Qi Ye and Tian Chen have their own destiny, which I cannot easily change. The owner of this Dao Source Jade is someone else."

"If the Dao Source Jade can play its role, another supreme god will appear in our Great Xia. Whether for public or private reasons, I will help him."

The Primordial Celestial Venerable said, "Seizing the creation of heaven and earth and taking risky military actions will lead to an abyss of no return if one is not careful."

"No matter how strong he is, he is still just a mortal. Are you sure his mind can withstand the torment of being constantly tormented between life and death, and the pain of climbing back up step by step from the abyss of hell?"

Baili Pangpang nodded and said, "Don't worry, he can handle it. I'm not wrong."

"In that case, go ahead and do it," Yuanshi Tianzun nodded and said.

……

Heavenly Courtyard.

An Qingyu adjusted her glasses, her face full of curiosity as she analyzed the spiritual energy of the Heavenly Court and made a model.

"Amazing, so amazing..."

Jiang Er floated in the air, looking at An Qingyu with an expression of admiration.

"Your 'only correct answer' is way too overpowered! It can even analyze the spiritual energy of the Heavenly Court?!"

An Qingyu said excitedly, "Give me a little more time, and I'll be able to fully analyze the Heavenly Court's spiritual energy..."

Suddenly, Jiang Er looked towards the courtyard.

"Huh? Didn't Venus say we weren't allowed to go out without permission? Where are they going?"

Lin Qiye, dressed in a black trench coat, tiptoed to open the door. After confirming that no one was following him, he quickly climbed out of the courtyard.

A moment later, a figure followed closely behind and jumped over the wall.

Beside Lin Qiye, there appeared a figure wearing a black hood to conceal himself.

"Brother Monkey, why are you dressed like that?"

"Stealing."

Lin Qiye: ...

"Brother Monkey, what are we going to steal?" Lin Qiye asked in a low voice, looking curious.

"Don't ask, just follow me, Old Sun." Sun Wukong's voice came from under the tightly closed black hood.

Under Sun Wukong's expert guidance, Lin Qiye was surprised to find that the path the Monkey King led him on actually bypassed the Heavenly Court's defenses!

Lin Qiye gave Sun Wukong a thumbs up. "My Monkey King truly deserves to be called the number one thief in the Three Realms. Back then, he could easily take the celestial elixir, peaches of immortality, and fine wine from heaven with ease."

Following Sun Wukong through a series of twists and turns, they arrived at a palace filled with fragrant aromas.

"This is..." Lin Qiye looked bewildered.

"The Jade Emperor's Heavenly Kitchen," Sun Wukong replied.

Chapter 433 Monkey King, your disguise has been exposed...

"You stay here and don't move. I'll be right back."

After saying that, Sun Wukong flashed into the Heavenly Palace's imperial kitchen.

Not long after, Sun Wukong came out carrying a bag full of delicious food.

Lin Qiye followed Sun Wukong with a puzzled look on his face, heading towards a small mountain.

"Idiot, Old Sha, I've come to see you."

Sun Wukong opened the bag in his hand, took out the delicious food inside, and placed it on the grave.

These two graves are the remains of Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing, who died fighting to resist the invasion of the mist.

"Fool, these are all your favorite foods. I just got them from the Jade Emperor's kitchen. Eat them while they're hot."

"Old Sha, have a couple of drinks with me."

“My two junior brothers,” Sun Wukong raised his wine cup, looked at the two graves, and said with reddened eyes:

"I, the eldest brother, will drink first as a sign of respect!"

Sun Wukong downed the wine in his hand in one gulp, and was about to say something when suddenly his eyes turned cold as he looked behind him.

"Who?"

Gu Tianchen scratched his head and walked out of the bushes where he had been crouching in the distance, smiling.

"As expected of the Monkey King with his fiery eyes, I thought I had hidden myself quite well."

Sun Wukong pulled at his hood and said with a displeased look, "Who is your Monkey King? I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense."

Gu Tianchen laughed and said, "Hehe, stop pretending, you are the Monkey King Sun Wukong, Brother Monkey, your disguise has been exposed..."

"It's so annoying, I'm covered up like this and they still recognize me."

Seeing that his identity had been exposed, Sun Wukong simply stopped pretending and ripped off his hood.

"Hey old man in the back, stop hiding and come out," Sun Wukong said irritably.

Venus, holding a whisk, emerged from the distant bushes with a cheerful smile.

"Great Sage, it's been a long time! What brings you here...?"

At this moment, the Great Sage's golden hair danced in the wind, and his tattered cassock and the regret hidden in his eyes made him look very lonely.

"Great Sage, you've come to the Heavenly Court without even giving me a heads-up. I would have loved to greet you," said Venus with a smile as he bowed.

Sun Wukong reached out to stop Taibai Jinxing, who wanted to worship him, and said irritably, "Alright, alright, stop with the formalities."

"I've come to pay my respects to my two junior brothers. I'll leave after that, and there's no need for anyone else to know."

"Don't tell anyone else. Just pretend you never saw me, Old Sun, tonight."

Taibai Jinxing then realized that Sun Wukong's state was very unstable, his aura was disordered, and he was half Buddhist and half demonic.

He seems to be trapped by his own inner demons...

"Don't worry, Great Sage, if you don't want others to know of your existence, I will never reveal a single word," Taibai Jinxing said earnestly, nodding his head.

Sun Wukong stared at Taibai Jinxing, then looked at Gu Tianchen and Lin Qiye, "Then why aren't you leaving? Are you going to stay here and wait for me, Old Sun, to give you a beating with my stick?"

Taibai Jinxing said earnestly, "Great Sage, if you wish to pay respects to your two junior brothers, you can go to the Jade Stele Forest in Heaven."
