The rabbit's sudden punch is extremely powerful, the jade rod seems to be a precious object, and most importantly, Deng Chanyu's toes are always very...
The jade rod hits her toes, and she exclaims with an "Oh!" Then, she hugs her foot and bounces wildly in place.
From a short distance away, the rabbit revealed itself, though it had a large bump on its forehead and a tooth broken off, its expression was defiant. It clenched its fists and made a threatening gesture before slipping away with the peaches it had stolen.
Long Ji did not even bother to pursue it and rushed to treat Deng Chanyu.
"How are you?"
"Is it an internal injury?"
"Was it an injury to the Dao foundation?"
Long Ji was so worried that tears were about to roll down his cheeks: "Where exactly are you injured? Let me check it out!"
Deng Chanyu rolled around on the spot, holding her foot, as if performing a fake fall in a sports match, her expression extremely painful: "That rabbit, no matter whose it is, I have to break its leg!"
Upon learning that Deng Chanyu's toes had only been hit by a jade rod, Long Ji breathed a sigh of relief. I was scared, thinking something serious had happened.
"Lie down and let me examine the injury," Long Ji told her to lie down, remove her shoes and socks, and then it was clear that Deng Chanyu's left big toe had swollen a large lump.
Recalling the times when she was mischievous and hurt herself, her mother would blow on the wound, and she thought that should work.
"Ayu, I'll help you blow on it."
She placed Deng Chanyu's left foot on her knees and carefully blew on it, as if the more she blew, the larger lump on her toes would disappear.
Blowing, she also asked, "Ayu, do you feel any better?"
Before she could finish speaking, a man with a tall stature, wearing a bright yellow flying cloud robe, with embroidery of the sun, moon, stars, and rivers on his sleeves, wearing a seven-star crown on his head, holding a jade artifact in his hand walked into the peach garden.
The man exuded authority without raising his voice: "What are you doing here?"
Deng Chanyu, Long Ji: "???"
Long Ji only noticed at this time that there was something wrong with their current position. Deng Chanyu was lying on the ground, and from her angle, it was difficult to see the approaching person. She could only twist her neck and look to the side, and that was enough to scare her.
The scene was like being caught by a father at home playing after school, using the excuse of studying, going to a girl's home, and then being caught on the act.
Long Ji casually put someone's foot down and stood aside, maintaining an indifferent expression with his eyes on his nose and his mind on his heart.
Deng Chanyu felt a bit embarrassed. She should either stand up now or continue lying down? One foot had shoes on it, while the other foot didn't, so she should put on socks. It was all the fault of that dead rabbit!
She still had some confidence, knowing that she had Niwa as a protector.
Without shoes on, she acted as if nothing had happened, stood up straight, and bowed respectfully: "Chanyu, paying my respects to the Great Celestial Lord."
She is a disciple of Nuwa, a guest attending the Peach Blossom Banquet, and most importantly, Deng Chanyu has no official position in heaven. She is simply an idle immortal. If Huatian Grandfather were to scold her severely, he would seem pettish and take advantage of the opportunity. After all, no major incident occurred.
At this moment, he could only sternly say: "The Grand Assembly in the Palace of the Immortals is about to begin. Do not be late, your disciple."
"Yes."
Since there was no way to scold Deng Chanyu, he said it about his daughter.
Huatian God usually treats his family with severity, and in many cases, even cruelty.
Today's Peach Blossom Banquet, Long Ji, his daughter, was actually eating and drinking in the Peach Garden. This made the many celestial laws and rules that he strictly followed into a joke. At this moment, he scolded her without any mercy, then told Long Ji to close the door and reflect on his actions. Without his permission, she was not allowed to leave the garden even a step.
Long Ji isn't new to knowing this father of hers, and she was mentally prepared for this. She quietly accepted the scolding and offered to accept the penalty.
After Huatian God left, both of them seemed to feel a weight lifted off their shoulders, as if they could finally breathe freely.
Deng Chanyu felt a bit guilty: "This time I've dragged you down."
Long Ji was indifferent: "My father is like that; I'm used to it by now. He's actually pretty good to me. Are you still in pain? Let's go catch that dead rabbit later! I let my face be made such a mess!"
"Your father just told you 'you cannot leave the Peach Garden even a step', so it seems like you can't leave."
"Ha! Ha! Ha! I forgot. Let's continue eating the meat. Since we've already been punished, we should at least finish this meal!"
Deng Chanyu moved her toes around, and she could only say that they still hurt a lot! The jade rod of that dead rabbit seemed to be a spiritual treasure, and it hit her toes, which were her weakest in defense. It would take several days to recover from this blow!
Put on shoes and socks and continue with the eating and drinking.
She searched the Peach Garden again and even asked the Earth God to inquire about it, but she couldn't find any trace of that dead rabbit.
After eating all nine peaches that are matured every three thousand years, her internal cultivation increased by more than a tenth. Deng Chanyu said goodbye to Long Ji and finished the small banquet. She should go to the Grand Assembly in the Palace of the Immortals for the main meal.
"Oh, did your mother's guest list include my name?"
Long Ji shook her head: "I haven't left the garden for more than half a year. How would I know?"
Deng Chanyu felt a bit nervous. If her name wasn't on the invitation list, going there without invitation might not be appropriate.
She then thought that since Huatian had told her "do not be late" earlier, it should not be a big issue.
At first, Deng Chanyu walked with a limp, taking careful steps. Long Ji laughed heartily beside her without a care. Ignoring the pain in her toes, Deng Chanyu's gait gradually returned to normal, and she walked out of the Peach Garden.
At this time, several groups of immortals were heading towards the Yellow Pool, and she followed behind. She quickly arrived at the enchanted land of the Yellow Pool, where the Peach Blossom Banquet was being held.
Just as she entered the hall, she heard a familiar voice calling out to her.
"Ayu, over here!"
Seeing Qinguan present, she felt at ease immediately.
Before challenging Lu Yan, Qinguan had said that she would use the relationship between Sanyao and Nuwa to help Deng Chanyu mediate and smooth things over. Tung Teachmaster is indeed a man of face, but he truly loves the three sisters. If Sanyao speaks a few kind words on behalf of Deng Chanyu, Lu Yan's grudge will be set aside, as Lu Yan is not a significant disciple.
To Deng Chanyu, Lu Yan was a figure from two years ago, but to many immortals, this incident had only just passed.
"Ayu, let me introduce you. This is the Queen Mother of the Azure Heaven."
Dressed in a light green robe, she floated gracefully like an immortal. The skirt was embroidered with exquisite white lotus flowers and adorned with gold tassels, giving off a playful vibe. Bixiao's eyes narrowed at the words and her lip pouted: "Little Qing sister, what 'Queen Mother of the Azure Heaven'? It makes me sound so old."
Next was the introduction of the second sister of the Sanxiao sisters, Qiong Xiao.
This immortal beauty has a captivating appearance, snow-white skin, delicate facial features, and is dressed in a beautiful white silk robe.
The last one introduced was Yun Xiao, the oldest sister among the three, wearing a water blue crane feather robe. Under the influence of her Daoist aura, the feathers at her sleeves seemed to be dancing. Her eyes shone like stars, making it impossible for anyone to look away. This was a feminine immortal with clouds as her gentleness and waters as her tranquility.
