Yang Xue quietly looked at Xuan You, wondering what he was up to.
Sun Wukong leaned over to whisper in her ear. Staring at Xuan You's outfit that made him look like a golden peacock, he couldn't help but complain, "Look at this old leopard. He wishes he could dress himself up as the most handsome and dashing man in the world. That golden hair - crown and golden wrist - guards! The gems inlaid on those wrist - guards are even bigger than what the Dragon King has."
Yang Xue took a closer look and indeed found that Xuan You had put a lot of effort into his appearance. On his cloud - embroidered boots with silver threads, there were also big, shining pearls. Even she felt like she wanted to take them for herself.
It had to be said that Xuan You had good taste, but it was just too luxurious. It looked tiring, and wearing such things must be uncomfortable.
She finally understood why the usually calm and taciturn Yue Bai was so deeply in love with this playboy.
Presumably, it was because of his self - admiring charm from the inside out.
Speaking of which, Yue Bai should be fully recovered in the past few days. After leaving the Heavenly Court, she would go to Qingqiu to visit her.
"What?" The Jade Emperor exclaimed.
Everyone looked up. The Jade Emperor's face showed surprise, as if he had heard something shocking. His eyes fell on Yang Xue, and his pupils widened.
Yang Xue felt uncomfortable under everyone's gazes. She turned to the Great Sage and complained, "Really, it's as if I'm a giant panda."
"What's a giant panda?" Sun Wukong was getting impatient, but he still gently comforted her, "The Jade Emperor must have been fooled by Xuan You again. He wanted the Heavenly Book from you, but he doesn't dare now."
"Why?" Yang Xue was confused. "This Xuan You would speak well of me?"
"It's not for you. It's for himself." Sun Wukong said in a tone of an experienced person. "Xuan You made a deal with the Jade Emperor using you just to save his own skin."
"I..." Yang Xue couldn't bear this. She immediately took out her bone whip and was about to beat Xuan You!
"Don't be impulsive, my lady. We're not at a loss." Sun Wukong quickly held down her arm and pretended to pull her into his arms. "Don't worry. He'll come to explain it to you."
Sun Wukong couldn't help but find it funny. He lowered his voice and teased her, "My lady, you're more impulsive than I was back then."
"Birds of a feather flock together." Presumably, it was because she knew someone was there to stop her that she was so unrestrained.
"Dismiss the court." Suddenly, someone shouted, dispersing the immortals who wanted to watch the fun.
"……"
"……"
"……"
The immortals left reluctantly. They were really curious, but the Jade Emperor obviously didn't want them to interfere.
Soon, only a few of them involved were left in the main hall.
Yes, and there was also Bai Xue who had been forgotten. She was soon taken away by the Heavenly soldiers.
"Since Miss Yang doesn't want to say much, I'll let bygones be bygones. From now on, no one in the Heavenly Court can stop the two of you." The Jade Emperor put on a gentle and amiable expression and walked towards them with a smile.
"Then thank the Jade Emperor for your kindness." Although Yang Xue didn't know what had happened, it was always right to seize the opportunity.
"Great Sage, congratulations on winning the beauty's heart." The Jade Emperor's look at Sun Wukong seemed to say, "You stone monkey are really lucky. You've taken the biggest advantage in the Three Realms."
Sun Wukong pretended not to understand his hidden meaning. "If there's nothing else, we'll go home."
He was eager to go home and have a private conversation with his lady. After knowing each other for so long, the time he spent alone with his lady was actually not much.
Now that the matter was settled, from now on, he would be with Xue'er every day. It was so boring to deal with these old guys.
"Of course. You two may go." The Jade Emperor was still undecided. Seeing that they didn't want to stay, he was naturally very happy.
After hearing what Xuan You said, he realized that he had almost made a big mistake.
However, Xuan You was not an easy person to deal with, but he couldn't do anything to them.
Well, there would be plenty of time in the future. Moreover, Yang Xue was just a woman and didn't seem to have such great ambitions.
After walking out of the Lingxiao Palace, Xuan You blocked their way.
Yang Xue looked at him impatiently. "Speak quickly if you have something to say." Just thinking about Yue Bai's experience, she couldn't be friendly to the man in front of her.
"Do you know your real relationship with Bai Xue?" Xuan You naturally knew that she didn't like him, but he still smiled.
Sun Wukong stood in front of him. "Stop beating around the bush. I say you old leopard should give up this idea. My Xue'er will soon marry this Great Sage. Prepare your wedding gift early, or else..."
"Even if I had this thought, Yang Xue might not take a fancy to me. Great Sage, you don't need to worry."
"I like to hear that." Sun Wukong put his arm around Yang Xue and walked out. "We'll talk about other things later."
"I heard that Miss Yang is taking in disciples. Count me in too." Xuan You walked up to her and suddenly knelt on both knees. "Please don't refuse, miss. If you take me as your disciple, you can command every grass and tree on the Great Green Mountain in the future."
"……"
"……"
Yang Xue looked at Sun Wukong. Why was this happening again!
She just wanted to live a quiet life for the time being and didn't want to take in disciples.
Moreover, even though she had the Heavenly Book, was it really necessary to be in this situation?
By the time Xuan You came to his senses, Yang Xue and Sun Wukong had already disappeared.
When they returned to the Flower - Fruit Mountain, Sun Wukong was just about to pull her down and have a good heart - to - heart talk. But he saw various immortals waiting outside the Water Curtain Cave, as if they were waiting for their return.
Yang Xue rubbed her forehead. Presumably, they had already heard the news and all came to ask her to take them as disciples.
"Xue'er, since everyone thinks that you're now extremely powerful and your cultivation speed is advancing by leaps and bounds, could you teach me first?" Sun Wukong jokingly held her hand. "We can't go home now. How about I take my lady to other places for a walk?"
"Sure. I haven't had a good tour yet. Great Sage, lead the way. It's best to go to a place with a lot of delicious food." This feeling of traveling around the world without paying for transportation was really great.
"Great Sage, do you know the fastest way to cultivate?" Yang Xue blinked and gave a naughty smile.
"What is it?" Sun Wukong was really itching to know. "Now your cultivation level is already above mine. As the saying goes, good things should stay within the family. My lady, teach me quickly. Otherwise, if some blind person kidnaps me to threaten you when you're not around one day..."
"Great Sage, don't you know there's a way called dual cultivation?"
"Dual... dual cultivation?" Sun Wukong's ears quickly turned red. He stammered, "Is it true?"
"You can ask the Supreme Lord Lao Jun. He must have heard of it." Yang Xue seriously spouted nonsense. Seeing the Great Sage looking as pure and shy as when they first met, she had a mischievous thought. She leaned closer to him and said, "How about we find an inn to rest and talk while drinking?"
"Okay... okay." Sun Wukong swallowed his saliva and then stopped on the street of a waterside town.
Yang Xue looked at the ancient - flavored town with wine flags fluttering. Not far away, there was a prominent inn.
The lanterns were just lit, and the gentle breeze caressed their faces. This was a perfect time for a tryst.
Yang Xue felt as if she was on a honeymoon with the Great Sage in advance.
"Waiter, get us a top - class room." Yang Xue led Sun Wukong to the counter. "Prepare a table of good wine and delicious food and send it to the room. Make it spicy."
"Sure thing, two guests. This way, please upstairs." The enthusiastic waiter quickly led them up the wooden stairs.
There was a noisy crowd around them, but Sun Wukong suddenly felt like he was in a dream. He just let Xue'er lead him.
He suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of nervousness.
What should he do? He hadn't had time to prepare a change of clothes in his Qiankun bag today.
