Soul Ferry: My master is Uncle Jiu

Chapter 401 Reason (Part )

Zhu Ganglie calmed down completely and remembered the rules of heaven, one of which was that it was strictly forbidden for immortals and mortals to fall in love.

Taibai Jinxing said angrily, "Is it because the fairies in heaven cannot satisfy you? Or are you too bored? Why do you all like to have a passionate love affair with mortals?"

"Tian Peng, as long as you admit your mistake to the Jade Emperor and swear not to fall in love with mortals again, I will let Lu Yue cure the plague."

"how?"

Hearing Taibai Jinxing's words, Zhu Ganglie staggered and subconsciously tightened the Shangbao Qinjin Rake in his hand.

Noticing Tianpeng's actions, Taibai Jinxing frowned, "Are my words not clear enough? Do you really think you can shake the heavens by yourself?"

"You can only choose one!"

"Besides, there is no result between immortals and mortals."

Zhu Ganglie's mind was filled with Cui Lan's every move and smile. He once thought that pursuing the great way was his lifelong pursuit, but he found that this path was too empty and too lonely.

It was not until he met Cui Lan by chance several years ago that he realized that he did not need to suppress his emotions in pursuit of the great way. He could have seven emotions and six desires like ordinary people.

He would rather be a human than a god.

But reality pushed him into a dead end time and time again.

After a long while, Zhu Ganglie let go of the Shangbaoqin Golden Rake and said with a dejected expression, "Take me to see the Jade Emperor."

Taibai Jinxing smiled again, "Marshal Tianpeng, please follow me."

Seeing the two people leave, Lu Yue also breathed a sigh of relief and put away his Dharma body magic weapon. However, when he saw his own door, he said angrily: "Why don't you install the door for me first?!"

“Tianpeng, you’ve been playing in the mortal world for three days. It’s time to focus on your work.” Seeing Tianpeng coming in with Taibai Jinxing, the Jade Emperor smiled as a winner.

Zhu Ganglie had a blank expression on his face and clasped his fists, saying, "Jade Emperor, I want to talk to you alone about what you told me last time."

The Jade Emperor noticed that something was wrong with Du Tianpeng, so he stopped smiling and frowned, "Taibai, you go down first."

The Jade Emperor still chose to let Taibai Jinxing go down.

Taibai Jinxing looked at Tianpeng worriedly, shook his head, and retreated.

Asking what love is in the world can directly teach you whether life and death are together.

"I can agree to be the destiny man, but I have one condition."

The Jade Emperor looked at Tianpeng, who was full of determination, thought for a moment, and decided to listen to the conditions first, "Tell me your conditions."

"Let Gao Cuilan become an immortal!"

Zhu Ganglie compromised.

The Jade Emperor, who could even suppress his own sister, naturally would not show leniency to an outsider like him and treat the laws of heaven as a joke.

However, the laws of heaven do not restrict the love and marriage between immortals. As long as Cuilan goes to heaven and becomes an immortal, he can stay with Cuilan forever after he returns from his journey to the West.

The Jade Emperor thought there would be some other conditions, but he didn't expect this, and he burst into laughter, "Not only will I agree to your request, I will also keep the position of Marshal Tianpeng for you. When you complete your journey to the west, you can come back and be my Marshal Tianpeng."

It is naturally the best thing for Gao Cuilan to be a fairy. As long as Gao Cuilan is in heaven, there is no need to worry about Tianpeng having second thoughts about her given her infatuation.

In this way, not only could he eat the portion given to him by Tathagata, but in the end his naval marshal would also be returned intact, thus making the Buddha's plan fail.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ganglie clasped his fists and bowed, "Thank you, Jade Emperor!"

"Alright, alright, go and bring your Cuilan up here quickly. I want to see what kind of extraordinary woman can cure your philandering." The Jade Emperor laughed in a good mood.

Zhu Ganglie couldn't help but smile awkwardly, then he happily left the South Heaven Gate and went down to the earth.

Gao Cuilan, lying on the hospital bed, was thinking back to what the Bodhisattva had just said to her, and her expression became complicated. Soon, Zhu Ganglie came back and said excitedly, "Cuilan, I found a way to save you."

"What method?"

"I'm sorry, Cuilan, I didn't mean to hide it from you. In fact, I am the Marshal of the Heavenly Peng."

"It was because you came to the mortal world without permission that you contracted the plague. If you and I go to heaven and become immortals, we can stay together forever."

Zhu Ganglie became excited at the end of his speech.

Gao Cuilan froze, just like what the Bodhisattva said. Looking at Zhu Ganglie who was as excited as a child, she held his hands with both hands and said, "Ah Lie, it's not easy for a mortal like me to become a deity, right?"

"If, if I have to ask you to pay a price, I would rather die."

Gao Cuilan cares more about Zhu Ganglie than her own safety. As long as he is well, she doesn't care even if she is about to die.

Zhu Ganglie was stunned, showing a touched expression, and hugged Cuilan, "Silly, none of us will die."

"Then let's make a pinky promise. If you die, I won't live either. So, promise me that you won't die for me, okay?"

Zhu Ganglie vaguely felt that Cuilan seemed to know something, but he quickly shook his head. How could an ordinary person like Cuilan know about things in the sky?

He must have been frightened by the plague, that's why he said these words.

"Okay, okay, let's make a pinky promise."

Then, Zhu Ganglie took Gao Cuilan to heaven to meet the Jade Emperor.

After curing the plague, the Jade Emperor used his magical power to make Gao Cuilan an immortal on the spot, and then assigned her to Guanghan Palace.

Later, Gao Cuilan, who was appreciated by Chang'e, became a female official beside Chang'e.

Although this period of time was not as free and easy as in the mortal world, it was already very satisfying for both of them.

Until Sun Wukong caused havoc in Heaven, of course this was all a show.

After Sun Wukong had finished making trouble and was pressed under the Five Elements Mountain, it was Zhu Bajie's turn to appear.

Zhu Ganglie, who got drunk at the Peach Banquet, did not use his magic power to remove the smell of alcohol, and came to Guanghan Palace in a drunken state.

Gao Cuilan saw this and quickly helped him up, saying distressedly, "A Lie, why did you drink so much?"

"I'm not drunk, I'm not drunk, I can still drink!"

"Hey, hey, lady, kiss."

"You want to die! This is Guanghan Palace!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Gao Cuilan's face turned pale, and the words that the Bodhisattva had said that year came to her mind again.

"Let's go! Go quickly!"

Gao Cuilan wanted to push Zhu Ganglie away and take him away from Guanghan Palace, but how could a mere True Immortal like her push a Daluo Jinxian?
Soon, the patrolling spiritual officer reported the matter to the Jade Emperor, who was furious and had Tianpeng arrested. He was severely punished with two thousand hammers and banished to the mortal world.

On the day of execution, when Zhu Ganglie was thrown into the mortal world, a person he had never expected rushed out, chased him and jumped into the reincarnation passage together.

Zhu Ganglie's face changed drastically and he hugged Gao Cuilan, "Cuilan, what are you doing? Go back quickly!"

Gao Cuilan held on tightly and refused to let go. "We have made a promise. If one of us dies, the other will not live."

"In the next life, you must remember to look for me. I will definitely remember you."

"Because Gao Cuilan will always love Zhu Ganglie!"
