Chapter 247: Chapter 247 Donghua Emperor’s Reminder (2 more updates, the remaining 2 updates together in the evening)

“Emperor, you’re taking it too seriously,” said Sun Wukong. “Since you, Emperor, have spoken, I certainly can’t refuse to give face! Alright, this time I’ll spare this fat pig for once, but there absolutely won’t be a next time! If this fat pig causes trouble for me again, I’ll definitely strip all the fat from his body!”

Sun Wukong glared fiercely at Marshal Tianpeng Zhu Tianpeng, his eyes full of warning. Zhu Tianpeng shivered violently, nodding hurriedly, “No, no, absolutely not again!”

“If it’s not going to happen again, why haven’t you left?”

As Marshal Tianpeng Zhu Tianpeng was still making all sorts of promises, Sun Wukong huffed impatiently. Zhu Tianpeng, as if pardoned, quickly got up and, after offering a flattering smile to both Sun Wukong and the Donghua Emperor, scampered off in a flash.@@novelbin@@

“Emperor, how do you come to be acquaintances with this lazy, sly creature?”

Watching Marshal Tianpeng Zhu Tianpeng disappear at the entrance of the hall, a look of disdain flickered in Sun Wukong’s eyes. Zhu Tianpeng, this guy, was just like when he was Zhu Bajie, always deceitful and slippery, never a word of truth. It seemed that he was the same when he was a marshal!

“In the Heavenly Court, who isn’t slick?”

The Donghua Emperor smiled faintly, “I, the Emperor, don’t have much to do with Tianpeng, but he’s rather sensible. From time to time, he comes to greet and inquire after my well-being, so naturally, I have a slightly better relationship with him than I do with other Immortals and Gods.”

“So that’s how it is. I actually thought, Emperor, you had a really good relationship with him!”

Sun Wukong chuckled. As long as the Donghua Emperor and Marshal Tianpeng Zhu Tianpeng weren’t too closely linked, it was fine. He had long wanted to pay a visit to thank the Donghua Emperor, but had always been delayed by one thing or another and never made it. Now was a perfect opportunity to make that visit.

“Emperor, I’m deeply grateful for holding back and not making a move during the battle at Flower-Fruit Mountain, and for protecting Zi Lan’s safety. I will remember your mercy,” Sun Wukong said, clasping his hands together in a salute.

The Donghua Emperor waved his hand and chuckled, “It was just a small effort, no need to thank me. Besides, I was moved by Zi Lan Fairy’s deep feelings, which is why I agreed to lend a hand to Flower-Fruit Mountain. There’s no need for gratitude, Wukong!”

“No, no, no, I must express my thanks! It might have been a small effort for you, but for Flower-Fruit Mountain, it was like a second creation! I always distinguish clearly between gratitude and grudges—repay vengeance with vengeance and kindness with kindness. Today, aside from expressing my thanks, I’d like to offer this gourd of ‘Triumph in Combat’ wine to you, Emperor, in hope that it may be of some help!”

As he spoke, Sun Wukong took out a gourd of ‘Triumph in Combat’ wine and handed it to the Donghua Emperor. A total of three thousand years’ worth of Immortal Fruit and Peaches of Immortality had been brewed into five gourds of ‘Triumph in Combat’ wine—three gourds had now been gifted!

“‘Triumph in Combat’ wine?”

The Donghua Emperor accepted the gourd with a puzzled expression, opened the stopper and sniffed. His face immediately showed an even greater surprise than The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and Leader of Tongtian, “What kind of Immortal Wine is this, Wukong? Where did you get it from?”

“I brewed this ‘Triumph in Combat’ wine myself!”

Sun Wukong laughed proudly. From The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord to Leader of Tongtian, and now to the Donghua Emperor, none could hide their amazement at his ‘Triumph in Combat’ wine. It was a rare honor, and he could not help feeling proud!

“Impressive! Wukong, you truly have exceptional talent. Not only is your combat power unmatched, but your wine brewing skills are also gifted!”

The Donghua Emperor exclaimed in admiration. He took a small sip, his face showing a hint of intoxication. Crossing his legs, he began to meditate and cultivate. Sun Wukong did not rush him; instead, he sat quietly by his side, watching the Donghua Emperor absorb the medicinal properties of the wine.

After a while, the Donghua Emperor opened his eyes, a sharp gleam flashing across them. He turned to Sun Wukong with an expression of excitement and surprise, “Wukong, this ‘Triumph in Combat’ wine of yours is extraordinary! Are the brewing materials including Peaches of Immortality?”

“Yes, they include Peaches of Immortality—three thousand years’ worth, along with some other fruits from the orchard. I used a special method to brew it; it’s unique in all the Three Realms!”

Sun Wukong nodded, looking quite pleased with himself. The Donghua Emperor was usually so composed; this was the first time Sun Wukong saw him so excited, a testament to his ‘Triumph in Combat’ wine’s quality!

“Only three thousand years’ worth of Peaches of Immortality?”

The Donghua Emperor was momentarily taken aback; he had assumed that the ‘Triumph in Combat’ wine was brewed from Peaches of Immortality aged nine thousand years. Peaches of such a young age usually had no effect on him, but after drinking this wine, he felt a distinct enhancement in his inner strength. In other words, Sun Wukong’s wine had amplified the effect of the Peaches of Immortality several-fold! Although there were other Immortal Fruits involved, even consuming all those fruits with the three thousand-year-old Peaches would have been futile for the Donghua Emperor, but the ‘Triumph in Combat’ wine was obviously different in efficacy!

“How exactly is this wine brewed?”

The Donghua Emperor couldn’t help asking, then he quickly realized that his question might be inappropriate. If he had such a miraculous brewing technique, he wouldn’t easily share it with others. “Sorry, I was being presumptuous! But Wukong, do you also have ‘Triumph in Combat’ wine aged six thousand and nine thousand years?”

“I do, but it will take some more time to brew successfully. The better the ingredients, the more effective the ‘Triumph in Combat’ wine will be, but correspondingly, the brewing time will also be longer,” Sun Wukong responded.

Sun Wukong nodded and explained.

“No matter, as long as it can be brewed, everything else is trivial!”

For someone like the Donghua Emperor, advancing to the next level was undoubtedly extremely difficult, which is why he had been stuck at the Half-Step Saint Realm for so many years. If he could take just one more step forward, let alone waiting for a bit, he would be willing to do anything!

“Your Excellency, rest assured. Once the six-thousand-year and nine-thousand-year ‘Victorious Fighting Wine’ are brewed, I, Old Sun, will certainly send you a calabash of it!”

Sun Wukong discerned Donghua Emperor’s desires for the six-thousand-year and nine-thousand-year ‘Victorious Fighting Wine’. Frankly speaking, even the Heavenly Dao Saints like the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and Leader of Tongtian couldn’t resist the temptation, let alone a Half-Step Saint like the Donghua Emperor.

“Good, good, good, how wonderful!”

The Donghua Emperor was overjoyed upon hearing this. At his realm, there were very few things that could pique his interest to such an extent. Sun Wukong’s visit today greatly improved his impression of him. It seems that his initial decision not to take action against Flower-Fruit Mountain was indeed the correct one!

“Wukong, it was you who rescued the Demonic Beast Taotie from the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Formation, wasn’t it?”

After exchanging pleasantries, the Donghua Emperor suddenly asked Sun Wukong in a seemingly casual manner.

“Eh? Why does Your Excellency say that? Did that fat swine Zhu Tianpeng say something to you?”

Sun Wukong was startled. Why was the Donghua Emperor also bringing up this matter?

“Marshal Tianpeng did not say much to me. He only instinctively felt that it was you who rescued the Demonic Beast Taotie, with no evidence to prove it. However, I share his thoughts. In this Heavenly Court, who else has the capability to rescue the Demonic Beast Taotie right under the Jade Emperor’s nose without having their true identity discovered?”

After much consideration, it seemed only Sun Wukong had both the capability and the motive to do so. Marshal Tianpeng’s guess was not unfounded!

“If it was I, Old Sun, who rescued it, what do you plan to do, Your Excellency? And if not, what then?”

Sun Wukong did not answer Donghua Emperor’s question directly but instead asked with a slight frown.

“Whether or not it was you who rescued it, it has nothing to do with me. I have no intention of intervening, I just want to remind you, Wukong, that there are many wise individuals in this Heavenly Court. They won’t fail to see through these matters, it’s just a matter of whether they’re willing to speak up. They simply don’t wish to provoke trouble. So, Wukong, you better be cautious when you act, think it through before you act, and don’t make hasty decisions!”

“Thank you for the advice, Your Excellency. I, Old Sun, will bear it in mind!”

Sun Wukong nodded and then bowed to the Donghua Emperor with cupped fists. The Donghua Emperor treated him as a friend to discuss such matters, something he wouldn’t have mentioned to anyone else!

Sun Wukong did not linger long in the Immortal Palace of the Donghua Emperor. After half an hour, he left and returned to the Naval Marshal’s Mansion, where he checked on his eight hundred Heavenly River Navy soldiers. Since the day when Taotie broke free, Sun Wukong had not met with Qin Feng and the others for over half a month. He wondered how their cultivation of secret techniques was progressing?

“Great Saint!”

“The Great Saint has come!”

“We pay respect to the Great Saint!”

The eight hundred Heavenly River Naval Soldiers were training on the surface of the Heavenly River under Qin Feng’s leadership. As soon as they saw Sun Wukong appear, they were all surprised and wide-eyed, hurrying to salute him en masse. Ever since the day Taotie broke free, Sun Wukong had vanished shortly after, and for so many days, not to mention the naval soldiers, even Qin Feng had no clue about Sun Wukong’s whereabouts. How could they not be excited to see him now?

“Alright, that’s enough. No need for such formalities. Stand up, all of you!”

Sun Wukong waved his hand, signaling everyone to stand, then scrutinized Qin Feng and the others with his eyes shining with a golden light. A smile appeared on his face. “Very good, you have all cultivated well and have not disappointed me, Old Sun. Keep up the hard work!”

Sun Wukong pulled Qin Feng to one side and first examined his injuries, which had already healed. His cultivation had even improved somewhat, and he was about to reach the Middle Stage of the Taiyi Scattered Immortal realm. This fellow was indeed working hard and had good talent.

“Qin Feng, nothing major has happened in the past few days, has it?”

Sun Wukong inquired.

“Aside from the Demonic Beast Taotie being rescued from the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Formation, nothing special… Oh yes, I’ve just heard that Taotie has appeared in the territory of the East Victorious Divine Continent. His Majesty has already ordered to stop the search in the Heavenly Palace, and the great competition of the Heavenly Court will be held as scheduled the day after tomorrow.”
