The Jade Emperor Arrives
"It's been a long time since we had so many guests. Please don't take offense if there are any delays."
The Third Princess of the West Sea brought over a few plates of food. The deities couldn't help but smile.
"Sister-in-law, don't bother. We're not outsiders."
If it was a few years ago, the deities might not have been so familiar with each other. Due to Ye Zichen's appearance, the deities who were only acquaintances instantly became a small group.
The Third Princess also left with a smile. At that moment, Yang Jian mentioned the wine …
Ahem.
Or rather, Erguotou.
"Bro, it's not easy for you to come to the Heavenly Court.
"True Lord, you're right. Sky Sovereign often chats with us in the group, but he rarely comes to the Heavenly Court. It's not that easy for us deities to descend, so we have to drink. "
All the deities around the table raised their cups. Only the Flame Emperor looked at Ye Zichen in confusion.
Just what did my old friend experience in the past few reincarnations for him to be so familiar with the deities of the Heavenly Court?
Although he was confused, he didn't want to ruin the atmosphere, so he also raised his cup.
"Then one of us?" Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows with a smile.
"Cheers, cheers!"
The immortals all chimed in. Ye Zichen didn't waste any time and downed his cup of wine.
After three rounds of drinking …
Regardless of whether it was red, white, beer, or yellow, the deities drank all of it.
If this was the Modern Realm, even someone with a high tolerance for alcohol would be knocked out. However, the deities were all drinking right now. Even though there were empty bottles all around them, they did not seem drunk at all.
There was a time for pleasantries, and the table couldn't be empty without a topic to talk about.
Naturally, all the immortals started talking about the Jade Emperor.
"It's weird, the Jade Emperor really hasn't been able to keep an eye on him recently," God of Thunder muttered.
They were generals under the Jade Emperor. Although they could make the decisions regarding the Heavenly Court's defense, they were usually the ones who relayed the Jade Emperor's orders.
However, they couldn't see the Jade Emperor at all, so they could only make the decisions themselves.
"Old Lord, do you have any insider information?" Yue Lao squinted his eyes and smiled.
"There really isn't any inside information." Old Lord Taishang stretched his back. "Recently, that brat, the Jade Emperor, hasn't gone to look for me either."
"As one of the Three Pure Ones, you don't even know?" Yang Jian was shocked.
"Then you're still relatives, aren't you still clueless?" Old Lord Taishang retorted.
The atmosphere suddenly changed. All the immortals at the table held their wine cups, pondering something.
This was too strange. The Jade Emperor had not appeared for half a month.
Although he was muddle-headed and tyrannical, he had never missed any morning court assembly in the Soaring Heaven King Palace.
It had only been half a month, and his subordinates could still make up their minds. But if it dragged on, there would be some problems that they couldn't handle.
"Heh …"
Ye Zichen chuckled. The other deities looked towards him, then raised their eyebrows, "What's going on?
"Why are you laughing, Sky Sovereign?"
"Hmm? Did I smile just now? "
Ye Zichen looked at them in shock. He was merely imagining the Jade Emperor's current appearance, he didn't expect him to actually laugh.
"You didn't?"
The deities stared at each other. Ye Zichen couldn't help but shake his head, "Fine, I did smile.
But aren't you guys being too nosy? Can't I smile? " The other deities shook their heads with a smile when they saw Ye Zichen's glare.
His interruption seemed to have changed the topic, and none of the deities mentioned anything about the Jade Emperor. Ye Zichen's interruption seemed to have changed the topic, and none of the deities mentioned anything about the Jade Emperor.
They drank for a full six hours, and the immortals at the table took advantage of the situation to play Fight the Landlord.
As for the other deities, they just stood at the back and laughed as if they were spectators.
At that very moment, a magic cloud silently flew across the sky.
Both Yang Jian and Old Lord Taishang's eyes were bloodshot, but they didn't have the time to care about the magic cloud. On the other hand, Ye Zichen smirked, but he pretended like he didn't know anything and continued to play his cards.
"King Bomb!"
Seeing that Ye Zichen was about to run out of cards, Yang Jian immediately threw out a King Bomb.
The other deities couldn't help but shake their heads. He's definitely going to lose.
"Ahem."
A cough sounded out in the crowd. The deities were all looking at their cards, so they didn't have the time to care about that cough.
"Ahem."
Ye Zichen and co. weren't playing to win money, they were playing to stick stickers on their faces. At that moment, Yang Jian's face was practically covered in stickers, and he was extremely angry.
He instantly exploded when he heard someone cough.
"If anyone has a cold, go and get some medicine. Why are you coughing here?"
The other deities all looked behind them …
Gulp.
Isn't the person standing behind us our Big Brother Jade Emperor?
"Greetings, Jade Emperor."
All the deities quickly bowed. The Jade Emperor's expression was not very good for the past few days. Now that he was scolded by Yang Jian again, his face was as dark as Lord Bao's.
"Mhmm."
Ye Zichen nodded, causing all the deities to shudder. It seems like our boss is angry.
Yang Jian, who was about to play his cards, also trembled. He gripped the cards in his hand for a long time, but didn't throw them down. It was as if he froze.
After a long time, he carefully turned his head and glanced behind him.
He waved his sleeves.
He bent his knees.
Lowered his head.
Everything was done in one go.
"Greetings, Jade Emperor."
"Heh …"
The Jade Emperor walked out with a faint smile. He squinted his eyes at Yang Jian, who didn't dare to look at him, and snorted, "True Lord, thank you for your concern.
"Thank you for your concern, True Monarch. It seems that I really should go back and take some medicine."
"That's what this subordinate should do."
The Jade Emperor's face turned green when he saw that Yang Jian really dared to reply. I really don't know if he's a retard, or if he's intentionally insulting me.
The Jade Emperor took a deep breath. He understood the purpose of his trip very well.
He ignored Yang Jian, who was kneeling on the ground, and directly sat down on Yang Jian's seat and stared straight at Ye Zichen.
"Jade Emperor wants to play a few rounds as well?"
"Ye Zichen."
"Mhmm, I'm here."
Ye Zichen, who was shuffling the cards, nodded with a smile.
"Don't play dumb in front of me. You should know why I'm here," said Ye Zichen.
"You can't hold it in anymore? I thought you could at least hold it in for half a month."
Thus, Ye Zichen also threw his cards onto the table.
The surrounding deities were completely confused when they heard their conversation. What are they talking about? Why are they acting so mysterious?
"Don't joke around with this one. This one doesn't have time to mess around with you!"
The Jade Emperor, who was sitting on the chair, suddenly released a powerful spiritual pressure, causing all the other deities to freeze in fear.
It had been a long time since they saw such a powerful Jade Emperor. For the past ten thousand years, the Jade Emperor's image had always been one of incompetence.
As time passed, they even forgot that the Jade Emperor was the number one expert of the Three Realms.
