Journey to the West: Godly Choice

Juanlian left the Lingxiao Palace, feeling a little depressed. He knew that he would soon leave the Heavenly Palace. He had lived in the Heavenly Palace for thousands of years, and he was naturally very reluctant to leave. After walking around, Juanlian came to Tianpeng's residence. He was dull and not good at communicating with others. Tianpeng was one of his few friends in the Heavenly Palace.

""Tianpeng, are you there?"

Juanlian shouted in a low mood after entering Tianpeng's residence. Tianpeng walked out of the house, looked at Juanlian who looked depressed, and asked with some confusion:"Juanlian, what's wrong with you? Did something happen?"

"Tianpeng, do you have any wine here?" Juanlian asked.

Tianpeng looked at Juanlian who looked depressed, nodded and said,"Yes, let's go, it seems that you have encountered something, I will accompany you for a drink."

After that, he walked into the house with Juanlian.

"Come on, prepare some wine and food."

Tian Peng instructed several female fairies. He was the marshal in charge of the Tianhe River, and he had a noble status. There were female fairies serving him in the mansion.

""Yes, Marshal."

Several female fairies agreed and turned to prepare wine and food.

"Come, Juanlian, sit down first. The food and drinks will be ready soon. What happened to you? Tell me about it. Tianpeng brought Juanlian to the table, asked him to sit down, and said with a puzzled look on his face.

"well..."

Juanlian sighed and said,"Tianpeng, I may have to leave heaven in a few days."

"Leaving Heaven?"

Tian Peng was startled when he heard this, then he smiled and said,"I thought it was a big deal. It turns out that the Jade Emperor sent you out to do something. Other gods have done this before. It's no big deal. Juanlian, you don't have to be so negative."

"It’s different."

Juanlian shook his head, a complex expression on his face, and said,"Tianpeng, I don’t know when I will be able to come back after leaving the Heavenly Palace this time."

"Huh?"

Tianpeng was stunned when he heard Juanlian's words. He frowned and asked,"Juanlian, what do you mean?"

"Marshal, the food and wine are ready. Would you like to serve them now?"

A female fairy came over and asked

"Well, bring it up."

Tianpeng nodded and said

""Shua shua shua!"

A group of female fairies brought the prepared wine and food.

"There is nothing for you to do here, so go ahead. No one is allowed to come in without my permission."Tian Peng waved his hand at the group of female fairies and said in a deep voice

"Yes, Marshal."

A group of female fairies agreed in unison and turned to leave.

""Shua!"

Juanlian picked up the wine pot, filled Tianpeng's and his own glasses, and said,"Come on, Tianpeng, drink some wine."

"Come!"

Tianpeng picked up his wine glass, clinked it with Juanlian, and drank the wine in the glass.

"Tianpeng, come on, drink more."

Juanlian was upset and pulled Tianpeng to drink one cup after another. Tianpeng had a bitter smile on his face. Looking at Juanlian's depressed look, he couldn't bear to refuse and had to drink with him.

Not long after!

The whole pot of fairy wine was finished by the two of them.

Such fierce and fast drinking made Tianpeng and Juanlian slightly drunk.

"I said, Juanlian, what is the matter with you? If you don't want to leave the Heavenly Palace, why don't you just tell the Jade Emperor? You are the Jade Emperor's personal general, can the Jade Emperor force you?"

Tianpeng brought another pot of fairy wine and said to Juanlian with a little drunkenness

"Hehe!"

Juanlian shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying,"Tianpeng, what do you know? It was because the Jade Emperor valued me that he let me leave the Heavenly Palace. Maybe when you see me next time, I will have become a Daluo Jinxian. I just left the Heavenly Palace suddenly and felt a little reluctant and sad."

"Daluo Jinxian, Juanlian, you are not kidding, are you?"

Tianpeng was shocked when he heard this. Although he was asking, he did not doubt Juanlian's words because he knew Juanlian's character very well.

"Tianpeng, do you think I look like a joke? Drink, drink." Juanlian shook his head, picked up the wine pot, and drank with Tianpeng again.

Tianpeng knew how difficult it was to enter the Golden Immortal Realm. He was able to enter the Golden Immortal Realm in large part because of his good luck. Hearing Juanlian's confident words, he couldn't help but be very curious about what the Jade Emperor sent Juanlian to do.

There was one thing Tianpeng was sure of, it was definitely a great opportunity, otherwise, Juanlian would not be so confident.

"Come on, Juanlian, let's have a good drink today."

Tianpeng invited Juanlian to drink with doubts in his heart, intending to get some inside information from him after Juanlian got drunk.

After the two of them drank for a while!

Tianpeng looked at the drunk Juanlian and felt that the opportunity had come. He asked calmly:"Juanlian, why did the Jade Emperor send you out?"

"Tianpeng, do you still remember what Tathagata said in the Heaven Palace about the spread of Buddhism to the East?"Juanlian said drunkenly.

Since Tianpeng wanted to get information from Juanlian, most of the wine was drunk by Juanlian, so he was a little drunk now and had no defense. When Tianpeng asked, he told everything without reservation.

Speaking of which, this was also the negligence of the Jade Emperor. He did not ask Juanlian to keep this secret at that time. Otherwise, with Juanlian's personality, no matter how drunk he was, he would not have told anyone about this.

"Buddhism spread to the East?"

Tianpeng showed a trace of doubt on his face when he heard this, and said aloud:"Isn't that a matter for Buddhism?"

"Hehe!"

Juanlian smiled and said,"The spread of Buddhism to the East is naturally the business of Buddhism, but it is also something that will happen as a result of the operation of the Way of Heaven. Therefore, the person who is responsible for bringing Buddhism from the West to the East will be rewarded with merit by the Way of Heaven."

"Merit reward!"

Tian Peng's expression was shocked. He finally understood why Juanlian was so confident. If he had enough merit power, he would have a great chance to break through the peak of Taiyi Jinxian and step into Daluo Jinxian.

""I see, Juanlian, in that case, I would like to congratulate you. It must have been very difficult for the Jade Emperor to obtain a quota from the Buddhist sect. I didn’t expect that they would give it to you. You have been stuck at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal for a long time. I hope that this time you can rely on the merits of the spread of Buddhism to the East and break through to the Daluo Golden Immortal in one fell swoop. Come, let’s drink."

Tianpeng said to Juanlian. He did not have the slightest jealousy in his heart. Instead, he was happy for Juanlian.

Juanlian’s face was full of drunkenness. He clinked the wine glass with Tianpeng, drank the wine in the glass, shook his head, and said aloud:"No, Tianpeng, the Jade Emperor got two quotas from Tathagata, and I am only one of them."

"Two places!"
