Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At the Peac.o.c.k Mountain.
The mountain was not originally called Peac.o.c.k Mountain.
However, ever since Peac.o.c.k Saintess lived there, it was renamed the Peac.o.c.k Mountain.
The mountain did not look like what it used to be. The Peac.o.c.k Saintess ordered the Demons to renovate the area. They connected the hills so it looked like a laid Peac.o.c.k from afar. It was regal and beautiful.
The mountain was very recognizable. Peac.o.c.k Saintess was a show-off. Therefore, the place was extremely famous, too.
Meanwhile, in the mountains.
A Five-Color Sacred Light s.h.i.+ned. Immortal powers circled at the center of the light. Spiritual Qi was misty and floating in the air. It looked like a paradise.
A hill appeared amongst the green trees and thick bushes.
Streams and waterfalls splashed in the mountain.
A woman in five-colored clothing sat on a throne in a pavilion near the bridge and the river’s stream. She was sitting in a position where she was half laying down on her side.
Her nails were long and pure gold. Her eyelids had a layer of golden eyeshadow. She also had winged red eyeliner. She emitted regal vibes from top to bottom. At the same time, she was perfectly lazy.
She closed her eyes and rested.
Her throne was piled with various treasures, mostly Wuhang Spiritual Items. They were glimmering with her iridescent light. The light in the mountain kept s.h.i.+fting like a LED light in a bar. It s.h.i.+fted rhythmically.
Insects and birds chirped in the mountain. All sorts of animals stood amongst the trees and flowers. They stood in a row and sang in an orderly manner.
They were clearly trained. They stayed in rhythm and created wonderful music in the mountains.
It was not hard to tell that the Peac.o.c.k Saintess placed importance on the quality of life.
Peac.o.c.k Saintess was very satisfied with her lifestyle. She was considering changing her t.i.tle to Peac.o.c.k Queen because Peac.o.c.k Saintess was not fancy enough.
Suddenly, several figures moved in the air. They finally landed on top of the clouds. They observed the situation from above. “This is the place.”
The Peac.o.c.k Saintess was enjoying the music. She felt interrupted. She opened her eyes with distaste and looked up.
The Jade Emperor saluted, “Greetings to the Peac.o.c.k Saintess.”
“Jade Emperor and Empress?”
Peac.o.c.k Saintess was startled. She frowned and asked, “May I know why you’re here?”
She had memories before she reincarnated into the Peac.o.c.k Saintess. She was just a Taiyi Golden Immortal but she was not afraid of the Jade Emperor and Empress.
The Empress said, “Actually… We came here to ask you something. It’s related to a golden opportunity for you, Peac.o.c.k Saintess. You must take this seriously.”
‘Golden opportunity?’
The Peac.o.c.k Saintess noticed that they were being serious. She was instantly curious. She loved magical and iridescent items, especially Wuhang Treasures. She asked excitedly, “What is it? Feel free to tell me.”
The Empress asked, “Can you lay eggs, Peac.o.c.k Saintess?”
Peac.o.c.k Saintess was baffled. She thought she misheard it. She asked in a low voice, “What do you mean?”
The Jade Emperor explained, “Don’t misunderstand, Peac.o.c.k Saintess. We mean no harm. But… The expert’s looking for someone to lay eggs for him. We’re trying to help you earn this position. It’s a huge opportunity for you!”
“Help me? To lay eggs for somebody else? A huge opportunity?”
Peac.o.c.k Saintess trembled from the insult. She was enraged. She asked with a cold expression, “Are you insulting me?!”
She would have fought them if she could.
She was the Peac.o.c.k Saintess, the only peac.o.c.k left in the realm. She was born a national treasure. The Peac.o.c.k Saintess placed importance on her image and reputation. She had never felt so insulted before.
She scoffed angrily, “Go away, farewell!”
“Why are we wasting our time on her? The expert’s waiting. We can’t delay it any longer. Just grab her!”
Yang Jing was expressionless. His cape blew behind him as he flew toward the Peac.o.c.k Saintess with his weapon.
“You guys are bullying me! I will fight you!”
Peac.o.c.k Saintess was flushed. Her Demon powers were activated. Her clothes s.h.i.+ned and fanned out like a Peac.o.c.k Tail. Five-Color Sacred Light s.h.i.+ned blindingly at Yang Jing!
Her eyes were widened. She hyped herself up. “Don’t come near me! Die, die!”
However, she was a weaker cultivator. Her Five-Color Sacred Light was not as strong. Yang Jing was much stronger than she was. She could not stop Yang Jing at all.
Yang Jing waved his hand and out came the Demon Capture Rope. The rope tangled around Peac.o.c.k Saintess like a snake.
Yang Jing cast a spell. The Demon Capture Rope glimmered. Peac.o.c.k Saintess instantly jolted and returned to her original form.
She became a green peac.o.c.k. She had four other colors on her. There were flaming red feathers at the corner of her eyes. She was glorious even before fanning her tail.
“Let me go. Let me cultivate for another million years. We can battle by then!”
Peac.o.c.k Saintess struggled. She screamed, “Why did you capture me? Let me go, let me go now!”
The Jade Emperor and the others acted like they did not hear anything. They dragged Peac.o.c.k Saintess toward the Fallen Immortal Mountain.
She started to whine once she realized it was not working, “Jade Emperor, Empress, the Peac.o.c.ks have always played nice. We haven’t crossed you, right? I’m only thirty thousand years old. I’m still young. Let me go. Boohoo.”
The Peac.o.c.k King, Kong Xuan, was famous for being a neutral pacifist. He had not killed anyone innocent.
The Jade Emperor explained, “Peac.o.c.k Saintess, we mean no harm. Don’t you worry, all you have to do is lay eggs every day. You’ll receive huge blessings. It’s a dream job for countless people. They’ll envy you!”
Peac.o.c.k Saintess was p.i.s.sed. “Nah! Lay eggs?! Go lay eggs yourself! I’m the prestigious Peac.o.c.k Saintess. I’d die before being insulted like that!”
The Jade Emperor said, “I want to lay eggs but I don’t know how. Otherwise, how would I let you have this opportunity?”
The Empress exclaimed, “Stop chatting with her. Seal her voice. Don’t let her disrupt the expert!”
They were instantly quiet. They hurried to the Fallen Immortal Mountain.
They walked on the mountain path and soon arrived at the four-part architecture. The door of the four-part architecture was opened because they were expected.
The Jade Emperor and the others slowed down at the same time. Then, they carefully entered the four-part architecture.
They greeted, “Lord Saint, we’re here.”
“Yo, you arrived. Welcome!”
Li Nianfan instantly smiled. He welcomed them, “Sit. Have a seat.”
The Jade Emperor and the others saw G.o.ddess Nuwa with her fruit juice. They were immediately startled. They hurriedly bowed and greeted, “Greetings to G.o.ddess Nuwa.”
G.o.ddess Nuwa waved it off. She smiled, “Long time no see. No need to be courteous.”
G.o.ddess Nuwa and Li Nianfan both secretly sighed in relief.
Li Nianfan felt like it was easier to talk to G.o.ddess Nuwa with the Jade Emperor around.
G.o.ddess Nuwa felt the same way. She was not used to how things work around the expert. She was in desperate need of guidance. She needed someone familiar to explain things to her.
The vibes in the four-part architecture were instantly much less awkward.
However… There was a Peac.o.c.k.
She struggled until the moment she entered the four-part architecture. She immediately froze. Her feathers were ruffled and her eyes were wide with amazement.
‘What’s this feeling?
‘I feel like a low-cla.s.s being that just stepped into a high-cla.s.s place. I’ve never seen such an awesome place. I can’t believe it.
‘I’m not prepared for this. How can my little heart endure it?’
She always felt like she was a regal being. She collected a lot of rare treasures. She renovated Peac.o.c.k Mountain into a high-cla.s.s paradise. However, the mountain was a pile of t.u.r.ds compared to the four-part architecture!
Peac.o.c.k Saintess looked around and observed the place. She realized she could not figure anything out. Everything in the four-part architecture was beyond her recognition. Even the air she breathed was some type of extraordinary Spiritual Qi.
‘What’s this paradise? This is too much!’
She tried her best to control herself but she was still quivering. She was shocked and terrified. She had a complete mental breakdown.
Then, she finally saw the Firefinches. There were a bunch of round Firefinch Eggs next to their nest.
More importantly… The Firefinches were also Taiyi Golden Immortals!
‘What’s going on?
‘No way. I have compet.i.tion for laying eggs?
‘What should I do?’
Peac.o.c.k Saintess was fl.u.s.tered. She felt someone choking her neck. Then, she realized she was being lifted up by the neck.
‘The bigshot lifted me up! The bigshot lifted me up!
‘What should I do?’
Peac.o.c.k Saintess was petrified. She almost pa.s.sed out. That was the most unforgettable day she ever had.
“You guys are too courteous. Why did you bring a gift when I invited you?”
Li Nianfan looked at the peac.o.c.k. He smiled and said, “Wow. This peac.o.c.k’s so beautiful. Thanks, guys. Appreciate it.”
‘The peac.o.c.k will be a beautiful addition to the backyard.’
The Jade Emperor smiled and said, “We found it on the way here so we captured it. As long as you like it, Lord Saint.”
“It seems to be very nervous? So cowardly.”
Li Nianfan felt the peac.o.c.k trembling in his hand. It looked terrified, too. It had tears in its eyes and did not dare to move.
“Don’t be scared. Relax.”
Li Nianfan brushed her feathers and comforted her.
Suddenly, he stopped. He slowly pulled his hand away from the peac.o.c.k.
There was a s.h.i.+ny egg in his hand.
“d.a.m.n. So surprising. This peac.o.c.k can lay eggs.”
