Chapter 63: Warm House Banquet
Things developed just as Li Anran expected.
The incident of the golden-winged Roc did not cause any waves in heaven, as if nothing had happened.
There was still singing and dancing in heaven, and the immortals were still drinking and feasting, discussing mysteries and philosophy.
Only in the Temple of Justice, the atmosphere was depressing.
Yang Jian stayed at home for several days, reviewing the files he had missed during this period day and night.
His expression was indifferent, he said nothing, and the red pen in his hand kept drawing with dots.
However, the aura emanating from his body was cold, violent, and extremely restrained, like a frozen volcano, which made people shudder with fear.
Not to mention ordinary grass-headed gods, even the Meishan brothers walked very carefully, for fear of making any noise and disturbing Yang Jian in the inner hall.
Crunch——
The door to the inner hall of the Temple of Justice was pushed open.
The golden sunlight poured into the hall, but it could not dispel the chill in the hall at all. Instead, it made the hall look much colder and dimmer .
Yang Jian raised his head, and his indifferent expression instantly eased.
"Third sister? Why are you here?"
Yang Jian was a little surprised, but he quickly reacted and asked, "Is it the fourth brother?"
" It's not because of Fourth Brother! Second Brother, it's because I miss you!"
The Third Holy Mother came up to Yang Jian, snatched the pen from his hand, pushed all the files aside, and put the basket in her hand on the table.
Yang Jian was not angry either, and asked, "What is this?"
The Three Madonnas took out three plates of cakes from the basket.
Showing off with a bit of pride.
"These are snacks offered to me by the people of Huashan as a token of gratitude for my protection. They are very delicious. I brought them here especially for you, my second brother, to try."
"Oh?!" Yang Jian cooperated and showed a surprised expression. He picked up a piece of cake and said with a smile: "Then I have to taste it carefully!"
"Of course! Second brother, you don't know that I have been in Huashan during this period..."
The Third Holy Mother spoke excitedly about her experiences in Huashan during this period.
What they said was nothing more than dealing with trivial matters such as the Zhang family's wish for a child, the Li family's illness, and the Wang family's unfilial descendants.
Yang Jian had been serving as an earthly immortal in Guanjiangkou for nearly ten thousand years, and no one knew how many cases he had handled.
But at this time, hearing it from the Three Holy Mothers' mouth, it was a different feeling.
Watching the Three Holy Mothers, she was sometimes complacent, sometimes indignant, and sometimes distressed and helpless.
Listen to her talk about how she treated the sick, how she punished the unfilial, and how she guided the people to be good.
Yang Jian couldn't help but smile, feeling quite relieved that "my daughter has grown up".
The Third Holy Mother chattered for a long time, and suddenly seemed to think of something, her face turned stern, and she said unhappily: "Second brother, my Huashan Villa has been built for such a long time, and you have never been here once!"
Yang Jian pointed to the thick pile of files on the table and said with a wry smile: "Third sister, second brother is really too busy these days..."
"When are you not busy?" The Third Holy Mother interrupted Yang Jian directly, took out an invitation from her bosom, slammed it on the table, and said: "The day after tomorrow at noon, Huashan Villa. Second brother, if you dare not come, I will ignore you in the future!"
The Third Holy Mother did not give Yang Jian a chance to refuse. She stood up and walked out of the temple.
Yang Jian looked at the back of the Third Holy Mother as she left, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes. He stuffed the cake in his hand into his mouth, chewed it carefully and savored it before continuing to correct the files.
I just feel much better than before.
As soon as the Third Holy Mother walked out of the temple and turned a corridor, the Meishan brothers surrounded her.
"Third sister, what's going on?"
Guo Shen tried to peek inside the inner hall to see what was happening with Yang Jian, but was pushed back by Boss Kang.
"Old Five, please don't bother the Second Master!"
"How can this be considered as causing trouble for Second Master? I am just concerned about Second Master!" Guo Shen muttered unconvinced.
Seeing his expression, Kang Lao Da was furious and said, "Second Master was in a better mood a few days ago, but you mentioned that flat-headed beast again and made Second Master unhappy!"
"I didn't mean it." Guo Shen felt aggrieved and said, "Who knows what the Jade Emperor is thinking! That devil committed such a heinous crime, and he was allowed to live freely in the mortal world! It's really infuriating!"
"Brother, stop talking!" Li Lao Si stopped Kang Lao Da who was about to say a few more words and asked San Sheng Mu : "Third sister, how is the second master doing now?"
"It's getting better."
The Third Holy Mother said, "I told my second brother that I will hold a warm-up party at Huashan Villa the day after tomorrow. When the time comes, you can accompany him to drink a few more cups, and he will be in a better mood."
"Okay." The Meishan brothers nodded one after another.
"Brother Kang, I heard that Nezha has also returned to heaven."
Seeing Boss Kang nod, the Third Holy Mother took out an invitation from her bosom and handed it to Boss Kang: "During the last birthday banquet, Nezha was catching demons in the Southern Continent, so I didn't invite him. This time, it's a good opportunity to invite him to a gathering. He and my second brother have always had a close relationship. With him around, my second brother will be happier."
Boss Kang took the invitation and said, "It's been a while since I drank with the Third Prince."
"Don't call him the Third Prince! He hates to hear that!"
The Third Holy Mother reminded him, and then she suddenly thought of something, took out another invitation and said, "Oh, and Brother Li Anran, please invite Brother Kang as well."
Boss Kang nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, yes, and Brother Li! I had thought that when you guys come back, I would invite Brother Li to Guanjiangkou for a few drinks. This time, I am grateful to my third sister. Brother Li is an honest gentleman and worth making friends with."
Seeing that Li Laosi's face was not very good, he said, "Laosi, the matter between you and Brother Li is all a misunderstanding. You two talked it out at the Third Sister's banquet, and that's it. We are all brothers, there is no need to be so petty."
"Big brother is right. Brother Li is indeed a good person. Fourth brother, don't bother about the past." Guo Shenzhijian also echoed.
Seeing this, Li Laosi had no choice but to agree.
After saying this, the Third Holy Mother did not stay any longer and rode on a auspicious cloud back to Huashan Villa.
Since the birthday banquet that day, the Fairy of Flowers broke up with her and later died at the hands of a monster.
The other flower fairies also became distant from her and never came to see her again.
It was because she had to deal with various things happening around Huashan during this period that she didn't feel as lonely as before.
She is now going to hold a warm-house party, but she cannot ask a bunch of flower fairies to help her like before, and needs to prepare it herself.
Two days is still a bit rushed, so we need to go down to earth early to make preparations.
Boss Kang then gave the invitations to Nezha and Li Anran.
Both of them agreed happily.
Yang Jian was in a bad mood because of the golden-winged Roc, and Nezha was also in a bad mood because he failed to catch the Demon King Jiao, and they were looking for someone to drink with.
Li Anran wanted to take this opportunity to ask Yang Jian how he could see through his cultivation level.
The world of Journey to the West is so realistic and cruel that he can’t wait to improve his strength!
In fact, he had already made up his mind secretly.
Even if he failed to find a way to conceal his cultivation this time, he was not going to wait any longer.
Yang Jian's Golden Immortal cultivation level made rapid progress in just a hundred years, so why can't he reach the True Immortal realm too?
