Chapter 1061 - 19: Want to See You

Before Xu Xian left, he bent down to hug Tianmiao: "Little Tianmiao, have your master take you to play at the Qiantang River when you have time."

Tianmiao nodded and waved at Xu Xian: "You should also come and visit Cold Mountain Palace when you have time."

Xu Xian nodded and smiled.

Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen departed, and True Monarch Hanshan stood at the door, watching their figures disappear before he carried Tianmiao back to the palace.

"Little Tianmiao, when you grow a bit older, I’ll give you the sword your Brother Bai gifted you." True Monarch Hanshan said as he walked.

"Okay." Tianmiao nodded, then asked, "Master, what kind of pastries are we making today? Osmanthus cake or rose cake? Can we add hazelnuts? They’re crispy and fragrant."

"Sure, sure, whichever you want to eat, I’ll make it for you." True Monarch Hanshan laughed and nodded, finally realizing a trait of this little disciple – a love for delicious food. He used to think he taught his disciple too seriously and strictly, feeling uneasy due to its perfection. Now, discovering his little disciple is a foodie, he felt a sense of peace.

"Can I have both? Can master make both?" Tianmiao asked tentatively.

"Yes, hahaha!" True Monarch Hanshan couldn’t help but laugh out loud. How is his little disciple so adorable?

...

The Flat Peach Banquet proceeded as scheduled, and the Heavenly Court was bustling with excitement.

True Monarch Hanshan was of course an honored guest. Yi Lan and Tianmiao were not eligible to attend such gatherings, so Yi Lan held Tianmiao and found a corner at the back, sneakily observing the grand event inside.

The dance of the immortals from the Hundred Flowers Palace was truly extraordinary, and Tianmiao clung to Yi Lan’s arm, watching intently. The little immortals moved with lightness, their dance graceful, captivating many of the gods who couldn’t take their eyes off them. Especially the Dragon Clan...

"That one is even more engrossed than I am." Tianmiao spotted a massive dragon head, with a dragon drooling.

"That’s the dragon crown prince from the West Sea. Stay away from the Dragon Clan, they are innately lustful." Yi Lan whispered.

"What’s ’innately lustful’ mean?" Tianmiao asked.

Yi Lan: "..." She fell silent, realizing she might have said too much; she should have just advised the little junior sister to steer clear of the Dragon Clan.

"What does it mean?" Tianmiao asked again.

"It’s just... not all dragons are like that. Some dragons become immobile when they see beauties and might do bad things. It’s better to keep a safe distance." Yi Lan thought for a moment and explained tactfully.

"Oh..." Tianmiao responded slowly, then said, "Senior sister should be careful. My junior sister is so beautiful."

Yi Lan’s heart exploded like fireworks. The little junior sister knows how to speak well, absolutely adorable!

"Look, there are many powerful gods at this Flat Peach Banquet. That’s Sun Wukong and Nezha, whom we saw last time. That’s the South Pole Immortal, and there’s Nezha’s father, Prince Li of the Pagoda, Gold Star Taibai, Wenchang Emperor, Wenqu Star Lord..." Yi Lan whispered, introducing the gods of the Heavenly Court to Tianmiao.

"The South Pole Immortal’s head is so big..." Tianmiao said slowly, "It’s so special, I spotted him at a glance."

"Uh, keep your voice down." Yi Lan gestured a shushing motion, reminding that talking about gods behind their backs might make them aware.

"But it’s quite nice-looking, isn’t it okay to say that?" Tianmiao wondered.

Nice-looking? Junior sister, are you serious?

Yi Lan recalled that her junior sister always had an earnest look, fell into an awkward silence, oh right, junior sister is serious, junior sister is always very serious.
