931: Chapter 324: Banquet for a Thousand Immortals_3 931: Chapter 324: Banquet for a Thousand Immortals_3 “Which junior sister has caught the Heavenly Emperor’s eye?

Hmmp, This Poor Daoist will go and propose on your behalf, play the matchmaker!”

Li Ping’an laughed and said, “Uncle-Master must be joking, my wife is right here.”

Ningning Mu hastily blinked, signaling her husband and senior brother not to bring the topic her way.

“Ah, right, Fairy Mu is here.”

Zhao Gongming shook his head, stroked his beard, and pondered:

“So what if she’s here?

Can she really boss around the Heavenly Emperor?

You are the Heavenly Emperor!

“You, you look at me…

Sister Jin Ling?”

“Hm?” Jin Ling, holding her forehead to relieve a hangover, turned her head over, her eyes filled with a touch of puzzlement, “What does Senior Brother want from me?”

Zhao Gongming clicked his tongue, muttered: “If the two of us become companions in the future, become Daoist partners!”

Mother Jin Ling’s face reddened slightly, and she scolded softly, “What drunken nonsense are you talking about!

I have not agreed to anything!”

“Hey, we have had an eye for each other for so many years now!”

Smack!

Zhao Gongming slapped a treasure bag on the table: “Dowry!

Take it!

Tomorrow we’ll consummate the marriage!”

“Pfft!”

Mother Jin Ling smiled with pursed lips, took the treasure bag containing twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls from Zhao Gongming, her eyes however carried a touch of tenderness:

“Put away your pearls, so many powerful beings are envious of them, be careful the Saints might snatch them away someday.

She lifted her head slightly: “If anyone is to marry, I shall be the one marrying you.

Without these pearls, you would be no match for me anyway.”

Zhao Gongming had already turned to Li Ping’an, thumbing at the air behind him, and muttered:

“Look at that, Ping’an, do you see it?

Would you say I’ve got the guts?”

“Strong,” Li Ping’an raised his thumb, “very strong indeed!”

Zhao Gongming muttered: “Bang!

Just like that, I’d put it down for her!

Would she dare say a single word of refusal?”

Mother Jin Ling rolled her eyes, ignoring the drunken man, and continued to sit in her chair to sober up, while an inexplicable silence fell over the gathering.

Everyone just happened to hear what Qiongxiao Celestial Maiden whispered into Guilingling’s ear:

“Are these two celestial maidens also wives of the Heavenly Emperor?

They’re so pretty.”

“Not at all,” Guilingling blinked, “Qiong Qiong, don’t talk nonsense, Qing Qing is Master, and Yaoyao and the great apprentice nephew haven’t even started discussing marriage yet.”

Zhao Gongming muttered, “Who is Yaoyao?”

Zi Yao Xianzi smiled and said, “Look over here.”

“Oh?”

Zhao Gongming took a good look at Zi Yao, appraising her from top to bottom, then clicked his tongue lightly: “She’s quite strong.”

Zhao Gongming lowered his voice:

“If you encounter enemies in the future, just call on us in Jie Sect.

“With your command, we will flatten Ling Mountain without batting an eye!

“Peacefully cultivate behind the scenes.

In ancient times, Emperor Jun had broods of Golden Crows, we can’t be outdone!

We must surpass our predecessors!

Inside Jie Sect, do you have any female immortal whom you fancy?”

Revealing the dagger at the end of the road, so to speak.

Jie Sect also aims to contend for the empress’s power?

Mother Jin Ling said from the side, “Stop making wild guesses, do you think you can control destiny?”

“Hey!” Zhao Gongming glared, “You never know, maybe someday I will enter the Heavenly Court and be in charge of matchmaking!”

Mother Jin Ling sneered, “Keep raving drunkenly and I’ll call for Junior Sister Yun Xiao!”

Zhao Gongming jerked back to alertness, his eyes instantly clear.

Li Ping’an clicked his tongue: “Is Uncle Yun Xiao that scary?

To see you so frightened.”

Zhao Gongming slightly pursed his lips, earnestly put away the pearls, and muttered:

“How can that be called fear?

My three sworn sisters are all very different in character, Yun Xiao is more traditional and cares about the rules.

We’re just having a drink and a chat, what’s wrong with that…

“Cough, I did have a bit too much to drink today, haha.”

Zhao Gongming gave a cupped fist salute to Zi Yao, who, with a smile, shook her head, yet proactively picked up a wine cup.

Zi Yao spoke softly, “I’d like to offer a toast to Your Majesty.

Today, I actually wish to see if I can outdrink Your Majesty.”

Li Ping’an’s forehead was covered in a metaphorical torrent of black lines.

Isn’t this, the host’s arranged ‘companion’, now taking the offensive?

Does she just want to see if I’ll ‘kick up a fuss’ once I’m drunk?

Beside him, Ningning Mu saw that Li Ping’an’s expression had become a bit serious and quickly picked up the wine cup, speaking gently:

“Fairy, His Majesty has already had quite a bit to drink, let me do this.”

Zi Yao Xianzi’s smile became more reserved, as she looked at Ningning Mu.

The latter was slightly nervous, but still smiled naturally and gracefully, her peach blossom eyes calmly met Zi Yao’s gaze.

Zhao Gongming, Mother Jin Ling, Mother Wudang, Mother Gui Ling, Qiongxiao Celestial Maiden, and even their Master Qing Su, all made uniform motions to look at Zi Yao, then at Ningning Mu, and finally, in unison, turned their gaze towards Li Ping’an.
