748: Chapter 263 Jie_4 748: Chapter 263 Jie_4 Looking over the other items, at least a third had effects similar to those of the Nine Yang Sacred Fruit.
Was this what Great Emperor Ziwei gave to the Great Saint?
If other male immortals saw this, they would surely be green with envy.
But, did the Great Saint really need such things?
Or was it that Great Emperor Ziwei felt that Sun Wukong needed such supplentation?
Nu Ba’s face turned crimson, and she finally realized what great things Great Emperor Ziwei was referring to.
Cursing Great Emperor Ziwei’s impropriety in her heart, Nu Ba collected those improper items, while the rest were so elixirs and genuine treasures of heaven and earth.
Lu Dongbin and the others had a strange expression, reflecting how concerned Great Emperor Ziwei was about Sun Wukong’s personal life that he had sent these things.
However, they felt that Great Emperor Ziwei was being a bit too anxious.
With their discerning eyes, how could they not realize that Nu Ba was still of the Pri Yin Body, so to say Sun Wukong didn’t need them now was also valid.
Moreover, with the Great Saint’s bravery, he hardly needed those supplents.
They divided up the items, each taking what they needed.
The rest were collected by Fan Yao, who was now acting as the manager of internal affairs at Huaguo Mountain, where all mbers could apply to her for their needs.
“Fahai, you seem a bit off; did sothing happen?”
Nu Ba’s gaze fell on Fahai.
His deanor was indeed off, the killing intent usually around him had lessened sowhat, which was very unusual for Fahai.
The others also noticed Fahai’s strangeness; knowing his usual steadfast belief, his distracted state was extrely rare.
Seeing everyone looking his way, Fahai gave a bitter smile and said, “Actually, it’s nothing serious; I just feel like I’ve encountered an emotional ordeal, which has left sowhat bewildered.”
“Emotional ordeal?”
The gossipy nature of everyone imdiately ignited.
Lu Dongbin even walked over, threw his arm around Fahai’s shoulder, and asked chucklingly, “Co on, tell us which girl has caught your eye, share it so we can consider it, and if it’s possible, we’ll go propose marriage for you right away.”
Fahai looked at Lu Dongbin speechlessly and said solemnly, “Monks cannot marry; the precept against lust is absolutely inviolable.”
Thus, Fahai called it an emotional ordeal.
Lu Dongbin almost burst out laughing and retorted, “You do know about Buddha of Joy in the Buddhist Realm, right?”
Fahai: “…”
So, whatever precept they say is inviolable is just nonsense.
Buddhist disciples primarily avoid marriage because they fear losing their vital essence, which they believe harms their cultivation.
But, at Fahai’s level, now having attained the status of a Heavenly Venerate, there wasn’t anything to worry about; it was impossible for that to harm him.
The so-called precept against lust was even more laughable.
“If it doesn’t work, why not just have Tathagata Buddha change the rule, allowing monks to marry?
Then it wouldn’t count as breaking the precept,”
Fan Yao said with a smile.
Fahai: “…”
It was only then that he realized that what was a monuntal issue to him was truly trivial to everyone else.
Nu Ba could even think of asking Tathagata Buddha to change a rule.
If indeed such a rule were changed, it would be revolutionary for the monks of the Three Realms.
“Actually, there’s no need to trouble Tathagata Buddha; he is currently striving to reach the Supre Realm.
Just find Jin Chan; he is the Second Buddha Ancestor of Mount Ling, and if that doesn’t work, we can always make one more trip to Amitabha Buddha.
With Sister Nu Ba stepping in, I believe they will extend that courtesy.”
He Xiangu said, chuckling.
Fahai couldn’t help but give a wry smile, pressed his palms together, and said, “Actually, I’m not too worried about the Buddha’s side; it’s more that her identity makes it impossible for to truly be with her.”
“Who is she?”
“A demon, a snake demoness.”
He Xiangu’s eyes lit up, and she laughed and asked, “Could it be Xiao Qing?
I’ve heard about your story; many tales are circulating, but I didn’t expect them to be true.”
“No, it’s Bai Suzhen.”
Fahai’s face turned a shade redder.
“You actually fancy soone else’s wife?
How is that different from Cao Cao?”
Lu Dongbin was shocked.
Everyone knew Suzhen’s husband was Xu Xian.
Fahai quickly explained, “You’ve misunderstood, Immortal Master Lu.
There indeed exists a person nad Xu Xian, but he isn’t Suzhen’s husband.
So-called Xu Xian is a re human immortal who, when he first saw Suzhen after she left the mountain, tried to deceive her out of her mana through excessive flattery.
I discovered this later and ended up killing him.”
“Then, you confronted Suzhen?”
“Yes.”
Fahai gave a bitter smile.
How could he not recognize the origin of Bai Suzhen as belonging to the Immortal Clan?
Even if it were Subdue Demons and Eliminate Devils, he wouldn’t target such a demoness.
Besides, since Bai Suzhen hadn’t committed any evil, he naturally wouldn’t strike.
It’s often said that Fahai is unreasonable: eting a demon and then killing it.
Those are misconceptions; even if he acted, it was only against those who had done evil.
For those who hadn’t, Fahai absolutely wouldn’t strike, and he often went out of his way to protect them.
Of course, such demons were exceedingly rare.
“You fancy her?”
Lu Dongbin asked, amused.
After thinking for a mont, Fahai then said, “At the ti, I didn’t feel much, but not long ago, I fought a great battle with an ancient god and was gravely injured and dying.
Then Bai Suzhen saved , tended to for a few days, and healed my injuries; feelings grew over ti.”
At this point, Fahai’s face showed a pained expression, “I never thought that because of this, I would encounter this emotional ordeal.”
“How does she feel about you?”
Nu Ba asked, smiling.
Fahai scratched his head, thought for a mont, then said, “She probably has a good impression of too; I explained the past events to her, she believed , forgave , and we beca friends and got along very well.”
