Chapter 126: Chaos in the Immortal Realm - The Peach Feast
Liu Yu and his companions spent several days traveling in the Immortal Realm. On this day, they were fortunate enough to be invited to the Immortal Realm's Peach Banquet.
The group arrived at the Peach Banquet venue with great joy, only to find it shrouded in ethereal mist and resplendent in gold. The tables were laden with delicacies, making their mouths water.
As soon as Liu Yu sat down, she eagerly reached for a roast chicken. But before her hand could even touch it, the chicken suddenly flew up, clucking and yelling, "Don't even think about eating me!" Liu Yu was so surprised she couldn't close her mouth.
Just then, a fairy came over carrying a plate of peaches. Liu Yu picked up a peach and took a big bite, only to find it tasted both sour and astringent. He frowned and said, "Could this peach be unripe?" The fairy next to him smiled and said, "These are sour peaches specially prepared for naughty fellows." Liu Yu reluctantly put the peach down.
Xu Xian was elegantly savoring his wine when suddenly the wine in his cup transformed into a small fish, hopping around his mouth. Xu Xian was so startled he almost spilled the wine.
Xiaoqing saw a plate of exquisite pastries and was about to take a piece when the pastry jumped up and dodged her hand, saying, "Don't touch me, I don't want to be eaten." Xiaoqing stomped her feet in anger.
Bai Suzhen watched the chaotic scene with a smile.
Just then, the fairies on the stage prepared to dance. The music began, and the fairies began to dance gracefully. But as they danced, their skirts suddenly transformed into wings, carrying them away. The audience below burst into laughter.
The musicians responsible for the performance also encountered numerous mishaps. One flute player's flute suddenly turned into a giant radish; another drummer's drumsticks turned into two little rabbits that hopped around on the drum.
Liu Yu laughed until his stomach hurt, and said, "This Peach Feast is so interesting!"
Just as everyone was laughing, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West arrived. Everyone quickly stood up and bowed.
The Jade Emperor had just sat down, preparing to pick up his wine cup to drink, when the cup transformed into a small monkey and jumped onto his head. The Jade Emperor's face darkened: "What's going on?"
The Queen Mother of the West quickly explained, "Perhaps some immortal's magic went wrong."
Liu Yu and the others suppressed their laughter, not daring to make a sound.
The Peach Feast continued, and the peaches were distributed. Liu Yu waited expectantly and finally received a peach, which looked large and red this time. Just as he was about to take a bite, the peach spoke: "Please, don't eat me." Liu Yu was startled, and the peach fell to the ground, rolling a few times.
Seeing Liu Yu's embarrassed state, Xu Xian couldn't help but laugh.
Just then, a little fairy boy ran over and accidentally bumped into Liu Yu, causing the fruit plate in his hand to fly out and scatter fruit all over the ground. The little fairy boy quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I was in too much of a hurry."
Liu Yu shook her head helplessly: "You little rascal, slow down."
At the banquet, everyone was toasting each other. Liu Yu, holding a wine glass, walked up to an old immortal and said, "Immortal, I'd like to offer you a toast." Just as the old immortal was about to raise his glass, he sneezed, spraying saliva onto Liu Yu's face. Liu Yu was utterly embarrassed.
Xiaoqing laughed so hard she couldn't stand up straight when she saw Liu Yu's expression.
Next, some immortals performed magic. One immortal tried to conjure a flower, but instead produced a giant rooster that ran wild at the banquet and chased after the other immortals.
Liu Yu laughed until tears streamed down her face: "This magic has become too outrageous."
As the Peach Banquet drew to a close, the Jade Emperor prepared to reward everyone. He took out a treasure box, and just as he was about to open it, the box suddenly flew up, spun a few times in the air, and disappeared. The Jade Emperor was so angry that his beard bristled: "What on earth happened?"
The Queen Mother of the West quickly tried to calm the Jade Emperor down.
As Liu Yu and his companions left the Peach Banquet, they were still reminiscing about the many amusing incidents that took place, their laughter echoing throughout the journey.
They continued their stroll through the celestial realm and came across a deity selling magical artifacts. Curious, Liu Yu walked over, picked up a gourd, and asked, "What's the use of this gourd?" The deity replied, "This gourd can hold everything." Liu Yu didn't believe it and held the gourd up to the deity: "Go in and try it." The deity quickly waved his hand: "No, no."
They came to a garden where the flowers were in full bloom. Liu Yu wanted to pick one, but the flower cried out, "Don't pick me, I'm afraid of getting hurt!" Liu Yu was startled and quickly withdrew her hand.
As they walked, they came across a deity painting. Liu Yu went over to take a look and said, "This doesn't resemble anything at all." The deity glared at him: "What do you know?"
Just then, a crane flew by in the sky. Liu Yu wanted to ride on it, but the crane refused and knocked him to the ground with its wings.
Xu Xian and Xiao Qing quickly helped Liu Yu up.
In the evening, they found a place to rest.
That night, Liu Yu lay in bed, reflecting on the day's events, and drifted off to sleep with a smile.
