Journey to the West: Break the entire Western Heaven!-Chapter 265 - 165 Peacock Princess Seeking a Suitor

Tang Sanzang was speechless for a moment, feeling that he quite liked eating and was kind of unscrupulous himself.

But it seemed that the fellow in front of him might be even more awesome. With not much strength, he actually dared to set his sights on Yang Jian’s dog and succeeded! And he wasn’t afraid of being beaten to death!

Although Tang Sanzang felt a bit of admiration inside, he said with his mouth, "No way!"

Jie Dian leaned in, putting his arm around Tang Sanzang’s shoulder and said, "Burp...don’t be so stingy, as the saying goes, ’In the northern darkness there is a fish named Kun, that turns into a Peng, so huge it can’t be stewed in one pot, needing two grills instead.’ Such a big bird, it’s no fun for you to eat it alone. We each take a bite, and afterwards, I’ll get you some good wine, how about that?"

Sharing the meat was something Tang Sanzang refused.

But the moment he heard about good wine, Tang Sanzang’s eyes lit up, "Deal!"

Jie Dian laughed happily, "Heh heh, I’ve long wanted to taste what the Buddha’s maternal uncle is like, finally, I can enjoy it, what a treat!"

The Peacock Princess couldn’t stand it anymore and asked, "Arhat, you came here, surely not just to ask for food, right?"

Jie Dian slapped his forehead, "Ah, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have nearly forgotten. Tang Sanzang, my friend, I am here to notify you on the order of the Buddha."

The Peacock Princess sighed in her heart, "What was bound to come has finally come. The Buddha probably wants to make a move. This fake Tang Sanzang’s journey to the West is likely to end here."

Jie Dian said, "Although the Azure Lion, the White Elephant, and the Golden Winged Great Peng belong to Buddhism, in the lower realm they committed atrocities and slaughtered the common people; they deserved to die! You did a splendid job killing them! Mount Ling gives you two thumbs up and adds a big red flower."

Upon hearing this, Tang Sanzang hadn’t reacted yet, but the Peacock Princess went crazy first. She grabbed her hair, completely shocked and asked, "You mean, you’re not going to pursue it?"

Jie Dian glanced at the Peacock Princess, "How much did you drink? I’ve been very clear, yet you still don’t understand.

Listen well, not only will it not be pursued, there will also be a reward."

The Peacock Princess was speechless for a while, looking at Jie Dian with a puzzled face, then turned to look at Tang Sanzang.

She was not a transmigrator like Tang Sanzang, clueless about everything.

Living in the Western Bull-Heaven Earth, she was very aware of Buddhism’s ways. Although Buddhism was generally very righteous, it was also very assertive.

Was the Buddha’s own maternal uncle someone anyone could just kill if they wanted?

Even if he had to be killed, it would have to be the Buddha taking action. How could he tolerate others doing it, slapping Buddhism’s face?

In other words, this matter in the hands of any other power would be a matter of choice.

But Mount Ling actually swallowed their pride and did it so naturally, that was somewhat eerie.

The clever princess immediately realized that all the problems must lie with this baldy.

Her beautiful eyes examined Tang Sanzang up and down, then she suddenly realized, this baldy was actually quite handsome...

After Jie Dian had finished speaking, he looked at Tang Sanzang, "Brother, you wait here, I’ll go get some good wine. It’s a pity to eat such great meat without good wine. When I’m back, we’ll drink till we drop!"

Tang Sanzang was overjoyed, "Don’t worry, I’ll definitely wait for you!"

Jie Dian soared into the sky, off to find wine.

But no sooner had he left than he was secretly stopped by Sun Wukong.

Before Jie Dian could speak, Sun Wukong dragged him away to a secluded spot, and no one knew what they discussed.

Jie Dian only asked, "Really? Wow, that’s awesome! So, what do you mean?"

"You should understand my meaning," Sun Wukong said, pausing with every word.

Jie Dian nodded vigorously and said, "Understood, with such an odd taste for alcohol, I must experience it for myself. Wait for me, I’ll go find some wine right away!"

Having said that, Jie Dian turned into a beam of light and disappeared.

By the time Sun Wukong thought about chasing him, Jie Dian was already long gone without a trace.

Sun Wukong couldn’t help but curse, "Damn... what kind of messed up thinking is that!"

"Wukong, Wufan, Xiao Bai, Xiao Liu Zi, come over here, the lady benefactor wants to host us!" Enjoy more content from novelbuddy

At that moment, Tang Sanzang’s voice came, and Sun Wukong had no choice but to return.

Under the Peacock Princess’s lead, everyone arrived at a gorgeous and majestic palace, which turned out to be nothing more than the Peacock Princess’s dining hall!

Looking at the opulent great hall, Sun Wukong and the others couldn’t help but exclaim: wealthy people indeed!

The Peacock Princess took her seat, her beautiful eyes constantly roving over Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, the Six-Eared Macaque, Zhu Ganglie, and Sha Wujing.

Tang Sanzang said, "Miss, if you have something to say, just say it."

The Peacock Princess sighed and said with tearful eyes,

"Gentlemen, I must not hide the truth.

I am originally a peacock from Peacock Mountain who attained sentience. Because I have the blood of the Peacock King, everyone refers to me as the Peacock Princess.

Five hundred years ago, the three great demons descended upon Lion Camel Ridge, and the Golden Winged Great Peng forcefully took me to this place, where I have been confined for five hundred years.

During these five hundred years, the three great demons have been entrenched here, killing who knows how many creatures, slaughtering how many nations, sects, and grotto-heavens, and accruing who knows how much karmic retribution and enmity.

Now, with the Green Lion, White Elephant, and Golden Winged Great Peng all slain by you, I fear all that karmic retribution and enmity may fall upon me alone.

After all, in the eyes of outsiders, I most likely bear the mark of the Golden Winged Great Peng’s wife, despite never having been his.

I fear that once you leave, countless enemies will swarm here, and I too will hardly escape death."

As she spoke, the Peacock Princess cried so pitifully that one couldn’t help but feel sympathetic.

Zhu Ganglie, unable to bear it any longer, shouted, "Princess, don’t cry... We haven’t left yet!"

Sun Wukong also said, "Princess, please speak frankly."

Tang Sanzang followed with a nod, "Exactly, exactly..."

Seeing the sympathy from the group, the Peacock Princess continued, "My thought is, since all of you are so powerful, I would like to choose one among you to be my husband, to help me shoulder the heavens of Lion Camel Ridge."

The Peacock Princess was well aware of her limitations; she wasn’t sure she could win over Tang Sanzang, the most powerful among them, but as long as she had a connection with Tang Sanzang, even being the wife of a disciple would suffice for a secured life. Hence, she was not adamant about marrying none but Tang Sanzang...

However, as soon as these words were spoken, Tang Sanzang, Zhu Ganglie, and the Six-Eared Macaque were tempted.

Zhu Ganglie was eager to find a woman quickly, while the Six-Eared Macaque saw it as a chance to extricate himself.

But before either had a chance to speak, Tang Sanzang spoke first, "Miss, what excellent perception! You’ve identified at a glance that I’m the only human in our team!"

The faces of Zhu Ganglie and the Six-Eared Macaque darkened instantly...

Yet they dared not say anything...

On the other hand, the Peacock Princess giggled and said, "Elder Tang, that’s not quite fair. I’ve heard that Zhu Ganglie was once the Marshal Tianpeng in heaven; Sha Wujing was the Chief Curtain Lifter; and Sun Wukong is the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, known as the Handsome Monkey King. How can you say they are not human?"
