Chapter 316: Meeting Yun Xiao (1)
Lu Ping and Sun Wukong flew all the way.
This time, they did not use Sun Wukong’s Somersault Cloud.
Their speed was much slower.
Finally, the two of them saw an immortal island, floating above the clouds.
It was the residence of Yun Xiao and the others.
Just as they got closer, they saw a group of immortals surrounding the island!
“Empress Qiong Xiao, we have been waiting for seven days. When Will Empress Chongxi receive her guests?”
“That’s right. Please let us know. I have specially brought some tea leaves from Baijun Star for Empress Chongxi. They are extremely fragrant.”
“Empress Qiong Xiao…”
Qiong Xiao felt helpless in front of the group of immortals. All of them ran over.
Most of them were not gods, and their positions in the Heavenly Court were not very high. They all wanted to take this opportunity to transfer out of the Heavenly Court and take the opportunity to elevate their positions.
These days, there was an endless stream of people with such ideas.
“All of you go back. My sister said that she will rest for a few days. I will remember your names and send the gifts to her. As for what will happen in the end, it will depend on her feelings.” Qiong Xiao knew that these people would not feel at ease if they did not send gifts.
......When they heard Qiong Xiao say this, these people did not say anything more.
They came here for only one purpose. To put it bluntly, they wanted to show their goodwill and loyalty and become familiar to Yun Xiao.
Was this kind of thing useful? It definitely had its uses.
To put it bluntly, did Yun Xiao know who was who?
She wanted to transfer some people. If she saw a familiar face, she might be chosen.
Everyone went forward one after another. Those who gave gifts and those who signed up.
Qiong Xiao memorized all of their names.
In the distance, Lu Ping and Sun Wukong watched coldly from the side.
Lu Ping could not help but shake his head and say, “Is this the immortal world? It’s no different from the human world!”
Sun Wukong smiled and said, “There’s no difference to begin with. As long as a person is alive, they will definitely have all sorts of thoughts. Some people like power, while others want to seek cultivation. Even if they want to be pure, it’s essentially a desire. In life, those who shed their desires no longer exist. It’s just that ordinary people use their hearts to label these desires. In reality, there’s no difference in essence.”
Sun Wukong was able to become a quasi-saint, and his cultivation had advanced all the way. It was not something that ordinary people could compare to.
This argument was directed at the heart.
In reality, regardless of whether it was gods, demons, immortals, or Buddhas, they were all the same as humans.
Even if they were saints, or even Hong Jun, they were all the same.
When Lu Ping heard this, he sighed in his heart and said, “All intelligent beings are the same. Existence is desire.”
Sun Wukong smiled and said, “Kid, you are smart.”
Yes, existence was desire.
Even for these saints, or even Hong Jun, their most essential desire was existence.
At this moment, Lu Ping realized that there was still a steady stream of people flying over.
“What should we do?” Lu Ping frowned.
From the looks of it, it seemed like it would be very difficult to meet Yun Xiao!
Sun Wukong smiled and said, “Don’t be anxious. Let’s wait and see.”
He did not know how long he would have to wait.
There was no day or night in the Heavenly Court.
The Heavenly Court always maintained a bright environment.
It was unknown where the light source came from.
Sun Wukong only led Lu Ping forward when there was no one in front of Qiong Xiao.
Qiong Xiao was astonished when she saw Lu Ping. “Why is your cultivation level so low?”
What he said was true. In the Heavenly Court, it was forbidden for immortals to breed.
Therefore, those who could enter were all at least at the Heaven Immortal stage.
Lu Ping, who was at the Tribulation stage, was one of a kind.
Qiong Xiao had not seen a cultivator with such a cultivation level for tens of thousands of years.
At this moment, Sun Wukong said with a smile, “My friend and I would like to request to see Empress Yun Xiao!”
Sun Wukong lowered his posture very much.
Qiong Xiao looked at Sun Wukong with a strange expression.
She naturally knew Sun Wukong, but they had never interacted.
Qiong Xiao smiled and said, “The Great Sage has now defeated the Buddha in Mount Numinous. He has a high status. Why would he want to meet my sister?”
Sun Wukong thought for a moment. He decided to speak the truth, “This friend of mine has a disciple. Her physical body has died and he only has her soul. He used a Buddhist method to ferry her soul. As you know, the Buddhist method to ferry the soul can only be used to cultivate Buddhist techniques. This friend wishes to help his beloved disciple rebuild her body. He hopes that Empress Yun Xiao will help him.”
Qiong Xiao swept a glance at Lu Ping and said with a smile, “Then I’ll help you pass on the message. As for whether my sister will see you or not, it’s not up to me to decide.”
“Thank you, Your Highness.”
Sun Wukong and Lu Ping cupped their hands at the same time.
Qiong Xiao turned around and entered.
Sun Wukong and Lu Ping were waiting outside. Lu Ping asked curiously, “Do you think that she will agree to help?”
“I don’t know.”
Sun Wukong shook his head and said, “It’s hard to say. After all, we have never interacted with her.”
At this moment, in the Immortal Island, Yun Xiao heard Qiong Xiao’s report. There was another person beside her.
This person had a majestic figure. He was dressed in a black robe and there was a black tiger at his feet.
Yun Xiao pondered for a moment and said, “Sun Wukong is usually very close to those people from Chanism. Why did he come to my residence to seek help today? Logically speaking, he should be looking for Nezha’s master, Taiyi. Why would he come to me? Moreover, Sun Wukong is now the Western sect’s battle-winning Buddha. In terms of origin, we still have enmity with the Western sect. On the contrary, Chanism is closer to the Western sect.”
