Chapter 645: Chapter 615 Gonggong of the Eight Triagrams
Yi Zheng tilted his head back, hands clasped behind him, and turned to leave, “Maybe, Fairy Chang’e will like soone like ?”
Everyone pursed their lips in disbelief at his tall tale. They had seen Fairy Chang’e many tis—a woman of intelligence, gentleness, grace, and stunning beauty. How could she possibly fancy a second-rate guy?
Moreover, he was a male!
Soone suggested, “This rabbit staying here is a public nuisance. Why don’t we just kick him out?”
“Exactly, exactly, let’s take a vote and kick him out!”
Upon hearing this, the Purple-Clothed Immortal was not pleased and coughed, “Gentlen, Yi Zheng was recomnded by Queen Mother.”
At these words, the crowd was taken aback.
As for the rabbit, he beca even more cocky, his little eyes glancing sideways at everyone, his little butt wiggling provocatively, “Oh, you want to kick out? I am so scared!
Co on, then!
Begging you to kick out!
Co on, real n, make good on your words.”
Everyone was left fuming, their faces turning an iron blue. The God of Wealth muttered, “If it weren’t for the occasion, I would really like to smack him!”
Nods of agreent were exchanged, and at that mont, Gold Star Taibai arrived, calling out, “Upper Gods, I bring so not-so-good news. Fairy Chang’e is feeling unwell and won’t be able to make it.
The Jade Emperor has asked that we keep the rabbit here for now, and we will start the selection in a month.”
The crowd was stunned, and soone asked in confusion, “Old Bai, we understand if Fairy Chang’e isn’t feeling well. It isn’t the first ti after all, and now she’s lost her beloved rabbit and is growing haggard.
We could just disperse, so why keep all the rabbits here?”
Gold Star Taibai replied with a wry smile, “It seems the Jade Emperor fears a repeat of the last incident with that pig… I’d advise everyone to behave.”
Hearing this, everyone blushed and cleared their throats, “Old Bai, we’re not like him—we are all respectable immortals.”
Gold Star Taibai said, “Respectable or not, we’ll discuss it in a month.”
The God of Wealth exclaid, “I don’t mind leaving our rabbits here, but, I’m worried about that guy!”
The God of Wealth pointed directly at Yi Zheng without any courtesy.
Yi Zheng angrily retorted, “What about ?”
The Birthday Star responded, “I’m not so sure about this rabbit either; everyone has seen his true rabbit nature. He could even steal drinks while we’re asleep…
Who knows what he might do to our rabbits after we leave?”
Yi Zheng beca even more incensed, “Am I that kind of rabbit?”
However, everyone nodded in agreent, even Gonggong was nodding.
The only one who ca over and patted his head to comfort him was Gold Star Taibai, “Rabbit, even though I believe you would do such a thing, I’ve taken foolproof asures to ensure you won’t have the chance.”
Yi Zheng’s face darkened, and he looked at Gold Star Taibai, “Is this supposed to be comforting or insulting?”
Gold Star Taibai answered, “Consider it comfort.”
Yi Zheng: “…”
Gold Star Taibai declared in a clear voice, “Gentlen, the Jade Emperor sent with the Thousand Water Map. The map can divide the world, draw boundaries for imprisonnt, and create small spaces. In due course, I’ll have each rabbit live in a separate small space for one month. If the rabbits are all fine, once Fairy Chang’e recovers, she can co and choose her rabbit.
Gentlen, any objections?”
With that, everyone was finally reassured.
The God of Wealth said, “Since it’s the Thousand Water Map, there won’t be any problems.”
Birthday Star said, “I heard that the Thousand Water Map was crafted in imitation of the Mountain and River Sheji Map; it’s a treasure capable of transforming the void into a microcosm, truly formidable.
Although it cannot trap those of supre might, to confine these rabbits should be no issue.”
Since Star Lord has brought the Thousand Water Map, I am relieved.”
The others echoed in agreent, deeming there to be no problem.
Yi Zheng had not expected such a turn of events; being locked up for a month without reason instantly soured his mood, and he raised his hand, “I object!”
“Objections are invalid, the Jade Emperor’s decree cannot be countered,” Gold Star Taibai rejected outright and, with a wave of his hand, a Divine Map flew out, instantaneously gathering all the rabbits within.
The Divine Map was shrouded in mist, and the traces of the rabbits could no longer be seen by the crowd.
Gold Star Taibai said, “Everyone, please disperse for now.”
At that mont, God of Wealth stepped forward, whispering, “Old Bai, what exactly is going on with the Taiyin Star? I’ve heard sothing attacked Guanghan Palace?”
Birthday Star also said, “I have heard about it too.”
The surrounding divines and immortals all pressed forward inquiring about the situation.
Gold Star Taibai made a silent gesture, “Hush, do not ask too much; this matter is too significant. In short, whatever the higher-ups plan, we follow. Knowing less ans fewer troubles.”
Although the crowd was unsatisfied, Gold Star Taibai did divulge sothing—the issue was significant and orchestrated by those above, hinting that it might involve beings at the very top of the hierarchy.
Under such circumstances, it would indeed be wise for them to steer clear as much as possible.
God of Wealth said, “No wonder so of the more perceptive ones didn’t attend this event, not even that pig!”
Birthday Star said, “Perhaps, I should give up as well.”
Gold Star Taibai said, “My friends, this matter is of great importance and concerns those above us. It has nothing to do with the Jade Rabbit incident; on the contrary, doing well may bring more benefits.
In summary, just do as you should and don’t overstep.”
Gonggong said, “You fainthearted divines, always afraid of this and that; you might as well stop being gods and go ho to nurse children.”
The gods glared at Gonggong, and Gonggong glared back at everyone.
Eventually, everyone let out a wry smile and looked away.
Though they were also mighty in their heyday, the gap between them and the Primordial Demon Gods was still too vast.
Moreover, after the war of Investiture of the Gods, most of them had lost their physical bodies and their True Spirits were trapped on the Investiture of the Gods list, their bodies rely convergences of energy, and their power had plumted to rock bottom.
Faced with such a Primordial Demon God, they were powerless to provoke!
Gonggong pulled Gold Star Taibai aside to ask, “I heard from soone that this matter involves the Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor…”
“I don’t know, I’m not clear, I didn’t say anything, don’t overthink it, goodbye!” Gold Star Taibai shook off Gonggong and scurried away.”
Undeterred, Gonggong turned back to the group of divines, “Seeing how flustered he was, I think my suspicion could be true. What do you think, could this matter involve the Jade Emperor and the Queen… hey, hey, where are you all going? Let’s chat a bit longer?”
“I don’t know, I’m not clear, I haven’t said anything!” the crowd clamored, waving their sleeves as if avoiding a plague, and scattered in all directions.
Of all those present, only Zhu Rong was left, along with a little child.
The child was dressed in a red bib and had a defiant look in his eyes.
Gonggong looked at Zhu Rong, “Your son?”
Zhu Rong: “…”
The child angrily said, “Gonggong, do not spout nonsense! I am the Holy Infant King Red Boy! My father hails from the Western Continent, with great strength…”
A large hand reached from behind, covering Red Boy’s mouth, as a big Bull Head turned to Gonggong with an apologetic smile, “Sorry for the disturbance, my son is feverish lately, his brain’s a bit cooked. We didn’t an to interrupt the conversation of two great gods, please continue chatting…”
