465: Chapter 474: Great Treason 465: Chapter 474: Great Treason Majesty without anger, the master of the Heavenly Court, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Jade Emperor possessed an imperial dignity that made the various Daluo Golden Immortals look at him sidelong, feeling that today’s Jade Emperor was not as weak as he had appeared to be in the past.
Gazing upon the Jade Emperor, whose joy and anger were not reflected on his face, Emperor Ziwei sneered coldly.
He did not clash with the Jade Emperor at the Peach Banquet, after all, this banquet was a grand event of the Three Realms.
Moreover, in the great battle at the Heavenly Court that year, both Buddhism and the Chan Sect had been involved.
At this mont, the Ancient Twelve Golden Immortals and the Western Buddha Bodhisattvas were all present at the Turquoise Pool, even if he wanted to stir up trouble, it wouldn’t be possible.
Emperor Ziwei might manage to offend the Jade Emperor alone, but the Chan Sect and Western Buddhism were too powerful.
Although his master was Immortal Zhenyuan, Emperor Ziwei did not wish to use Immortal Zhenyuan’s fa to bolster his own, which would only make him the subject of ridicule.
A standoff faded into invisibility, and the Peach Banquet continued unabated.
As the leading female fairy and the host of the Turquoise Pool, the Queen Mother of the West naturally needed to propose a toast.
After a speech full of lofty words feeling the grace of Heaven, the erstwhile silent Peach Banquet gradually ward up.
Hiss, hiss, hiss!
Suddenly, just as the immortals at the Turquoise Pool were toasting and switching cups, over a hundred streaks of Immortal Light crossed Changtian and arrived, startling all the immortals at the pool as they turned to look towards the newcors.
“Zhao Gongming?”
“How did he co?”
“Wait…
wait a minute…
Is that the Golden Spirit Saint Mother?”
A series of exclamations emanated from the Group of Immortals, as they saw the Jie Sect immortals entering the Turquoise Pool.
Leading them, in addition to Zhao Gongming, was a graceful and luxurious woman making her way toward the Turquoise Pool.
The Golden Spirit Saint Mother, one of the four disciples of the Heavenly Sect Master, had matched several Daluo Golden Immortals from the Chan Sect in strength during the Sealing God Tribulation and was an Ancient Great Divine Power holder.
However, since the Sealing God Tribulation, it was rumored that the Golden Spirit Saint Mother had perished within the midst of those calamities, yet unexpectedly she was still alive and had co to the Peach Banquet with the Jie Sect immortals.
Boom!
Daluo Immortal Light shimred, and waves rippled through the void.
The Ancient Twelve Golden Immortals, who were originally sitting calmly, all furrowed their brows at this mont, their eyes passing a solemn look towards the Golden Spirit Saint Mother.
The Ancient Twelve Golden Immortals.
Guang Chengzi, Chijingzi, Taiyi True Lord, Huanglong True Lord, Manjusri Bodhisattva, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva,…
Manjusri and Samantabhadra, who were forrly one of the twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect and had entered Western Buddhism after the Sealing God Tribulation, were still counted among the twelve Golden Immortals.
They had also once fought the Golden Spirit Saint Mother but could not defeat her.
Today, the sudden arrival of the Golden Spirit Saint Mother at the Heavenly Court had even the Jade Emperor furrowing his brow, a solemn look crossing his eyes, deeply afraid that conflict would arise between the two great Daoist factions at the Peach Banquet.
“So, it is the Golden Spirit Saint Mother gracing the Heavenly Court with her presence.
Please, Saint Mother, take your seat.”
The Jade Emperor spoke gently as Immortal Officials had already brought a jade table and cushion for the Golden Spirit Saint Mother, who gave the Jade Emperor a Daoist salute in greeting as if to acknowledge the master of the Heavenly Court.
However, what made the immortals of the Turquoise Pool suspicious was that upon taking her seat, the Golden Spirit Saint Mother remained still and silent, her eyes closed slightly as she entered a state of restful ditation, prompting all sorts of thoughts to arise among those present.
It was known that the Golden Spirit Saint Mother was the second disciple of the Heavenly Sect Master, and her cultivation was at the second watershed of the Daluo realm.
She had never appeared at the Peach Banquets of the past.
Why, of all tis, had she co to the Heavenly Court during this Peach Banquet?
This question rose in everyone’s minds, a pity that the Golden Spirit Saint Mother would naturally not reveal her intentions.
“Your Majesty, all the immortals from various regions have arrived.
Shall we present the Peaches for all immortals to taste?”
Gold Star Taibai stepped aside, his voice rising within the Turquoise Pool, also invigorating the spirits of the group of immortals, no longer pondering the reason for the appearance of the Golden Spirit Saint Mother.
“Granted!”
The Jade Emperor nodded slowly, and as he spoke, many fairies erged from all directions, each dragging a jade plate in their hands, with dazzlingly bright Pan Peaches being placed one by one in front of the immortals.
The spiritual energy was rich, and the peach fragrance was overwhelming; when tens of thousands of Pan Peaches appeared in the Turquoise Pool, the immortals’ faces flushed with excitent—clearly, such heavenly and earthly spiritual objects made them salivate with desire.
“My noble officials, join in tasting the delightful flavor of the Pan Peach.”
The Jade Emperor smiled slightly, taking the lead to pick up a Nine Thousand Year Old Peach in front of him and gently taking a bite.
A glow of spiritual light burst forth from the peach; even as the ruler of the Three Realms, when he took his first bite of the peach, there was a hint of intoxication on his face.
The immortals at Turquoise Pool had already been impatiently waiting.
Seeing the Jade Emperor had already tasted the peach, the other immortals made a show of decorum—yet they still hurried to gulp down the peaches in front of them, with little mind to savor the taste of the peach.
The fragrance of the Pan Peach filled the sky and the land, the auspicious light and spiritual aura gushed forth endlessly, and there even ca the contented sounds from the immortals.
Clearly, this heaven and earth spiritual dicine was too powerful, and as they ate, their cultivation levels were quickly growing.
At the end of the Turquoise Pool.
A Three Thousand Year Old Pan Peach was placed in front of Ye Xuan, who did not eat it.
Instead, he sketched a sneer of contempt at the corners of his mouth, gazing towards the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother in the central main seat.
“Whew!”
“Delicious, suprely delicious.”
The face of the Daoist Master Qingsong flushed with excitent, spiritual light flowing around his body.
The Pan Peach in front of him had already been swallowed in two bites, and he was now murmuring in satisfaction.
“Hmm?”
When Daoist Master Qingsong returned to his senses and suddenly saw that Ye Xuan had not eaten the Pan Peach, he was slightly startled and said, “Qing Huo, this peach has just been picked; now is the best ti to consu it.
If you wait too long, the spiritual energy will dissipate—what are you waiting for?”
Unfortunately, Ye Xuan did not respond to Daoist Master Qingsong’s words.
Instead, what Ye Xuan did next left Qingsong completely stunned on the spot, his whole being turning deathly silent, his teeth chattering faintly.
Ye Xuan picked up the Pan Peach in front of him, but instead of placing it in his mouth, he casually threw it directly towards the center of the Turquoise Pool.
Thud!
The Three Thousand Year Old Pan Peach plumted harshly into the center of the Turquoise Pool, the once brilliantly luminous peach instantly transforming into a ss of smashed fruit on the ground—rendering the entire Turquoise Pool banquet suddenly dead silent.
Silence!
An eerie, deathlike stillness.
When this scene unfolded before the eyes of the immortals, each of them beca stupefied, even the Ancient Twelve Golden Immortals who were tasting the Nine Thousand Year Old Peaches paused their actions, not to ntion the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother.
Throughout the many sessions of the Peach Banquet, there had never been a case where soone dared to destroy a Pan Peach, especially not during the banquet itself, tossing it to the ground as if it were trash.
This was not only an act of damaging the spiritual dicine of the peach but was an outright slap in the face of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, completely disregarding the assembled immortals.
A capital cri, a sin reaching the heavens, absolutely unforgivable.
Regardless of who committed this act, their fate would be to have their souls scattered and never to be reincarnated.
“How dare soone damage the Pan Peach Holy dicine!”
An Immortal Official leaped out, his voice icy to the extre, and he turned his gaze toward the area where Ye Xuan was located.
