I am Jiang Ming, the Eternal Demon Emperor

Chapter 920 The Peacock Princess
"Elder Tang, you must be tired from your journey. I've picked some wild fruits here to quench your thirst."

The Peacock Princess, as beautiful as a painting, arrived carrying a fruit basket.

"Female benefactor, where do you come from?"

Sha Wujing immediately stepped forward and blocked the Peacock Princess's path.

"Your eldest and second senior brothers just asked me for directions. You must be Elder Tang's third disciple."

Princess Peacock spoke.

"So it's you, female benefactor. May I ask what brings you here?"

Sha Wujing said.

"I came here to bring some fruit to Elder Tang."

Princess Peacock said.

"Thank you, lady donor."

Jiang Ming replied, but did not eat the fruit.

"Elder Tang, don't be afraid. The mountain winds are biting here, and it's not convenient to rest. Why don't you come to my house for a seat and have some vegetarian food?"

Princess Peacock continued speaking.

"I'm afraid it will be quite inconvenient."

Jiang Ming spoke up.

"Elder Tang, there's nothing inconvenient about it. My house is spacious and the scenery is beautiful. You and your disciples can rest for a while and wait for your eldest and second disciples to return before you leave."

Princess Peacock said.

"No, move further away."

Sha Wujing immediately blocked the Peacock Princess from getting closer.

"Wujing, don't be too rude."

Jiang Ming spoke up.

"Elder Tang, you are the master, you should make the decision on this matter."

Princess Peacock changed direction and moved closer to Jiang Mingdao.

"what are you doing?"

Enraged, Sha Wujing pushed the Peacock Princess, causing her to crash into a nearby rock and revert to her original form.

It was a woman holding a five-colored peacock robe, with a single-knife half-turned bun, a popular high bun hairstyle in the Tang Dynasty. Its characteristics were that the top of the bun tilted and curled to one side, resembling an inverted lotus leaf from the side, and the overall shape was straight like the back of a knife.

It can make a woman appear noble, aloof, and unapproachable.

"monster!"

Sha Wujing shouted.

Then, Princess Peacock took out the Five-Colored Peacock Feather Fan, a treasure bestowed by Heaven, and gently fanned it at him. Accompanied by a burst of five-colored light, Sha Wujing fainted immediately.

When the white dragon horse saw this, it pretended not to see it and silently chanted in its heart, "I am a horse, I am a horse."

If Sha Wujing, who possesses the strength of an early-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal, is instantly defeated, what use is the White Dragon, who possesses the strength of a Taiyi Golden Immortal?

Then, Jiang Ming was captured by the female demon.

Princess Peacock carried him and flew over a hundred miles to a peacock lake.

"Elder Tang, you've been frightened."

Princess Peacock spoke.

"You are a monster."

Jiang Ming then pretended to be weak and frail.

"I am not a monster, I am a fairy, Princess Peacock, you don't need to be afraid."

Princess Peacock spoke.

"Then how did you manage to bring me here with a gust of wind? And my apprentice? How is he?"

Jiang Ming asked.

"Your disciple is fine and will wake up soon. As for bringing you here, it's all because of our destiny. Please don't have any doubts, Elder Tang."

Princess Peacock spoke.

"Let's go, Elder Tang, shall I dance for you?!"

Princess Peacock smiled alluringly and said.

Then, a group of flying spirits surrounded them; they were all Earth Immortals and Celestial Immortals.

"Let's go, Mr. Xing, let's go quickly..." The women chattered and pulled Jiang Ming to a lakeside pavilion.

Fruits and snacks had already been prepared in the pavilion. The Peacock Princess, however, had truly come to seduce Jiang Ming. Upon arriving, she immediately changed into a revealing, form-fitting dress and began to dance gracefully.

It must be said that the dance performed by this beautiful peacock princess was bold, beautiful, and graceful, making it a truly breathtaking sight.

Jiang Ming couldn't help but admire it in his heart; he had truly appreciated it from beginning to end.

"Elder Tang, you come from the Great Tang Dynasty in the East. What do you think of my dance?"

After finishing her dance, Princess Peacock put on her colorful dress, entered the pavilion, and asked expectantly.

"Holding a bouquet of flowers in my hand, I feel a deep sense of affection among them."

I can only lament that the flowers are silent, unable to express their innermost feelings.

Flowers bloom in profusion, yet no one cares; the garden is filled with fragrance, yet it remains lonely.

Flowers shed tears in sorrow for the passing of time; who can understand the bitterness and astringency they feel?

When will I meet someone who cherishes flowers, so that I may always bloom a flower beside you?

A dance is followed by a song; the combination of song and dance conveys a wealth of emotions.

Her colorful skirt rippled on the spring water, and her eyes sent forth waves of affection.

A heartfelt song fills the throat, a tender dance sways with affection.

The birds startle with sorrow at parting; it's hard to separate and difficult to part.

My only wish is that you will always be with me, and that our hearts will be bound together for a hundred years.

With hearts united, we sing with heartfelt emotion, our love flowing gracefully in our dance.

The birds startle with sorrow at parting; it's hard to separate and difficult to part.

I only wish that you would live forever, and that our hearts would be bound together for a hundred years.

A heartfelt song fills the throat, a tender dance sways with affection.

The birds startle with sorrow at parting; it's hard to separate and difficult to part.

My only wish is that you live forever, that our hearts may be bound together for a hundred years, bound together in one heart.

This wasn't the first time Jiang Ming had sung for a woman; this time, he sang "Always a Flower Blooms with You" for the Peacock Princess.

"this--"

Princess Peacock was stunned. She had asked casually, but unexpectedly, she received such a beautiful song.

"Now that I've taught you, why don't you sing it again, and I'll accompany you."

Jiang Ming spoke up.

"I have musical instruments here: a guqin and a flute. Which one do you want?"

Princess Peacock spoke.

"The flute, perhaps."

Jiang Ming said with a smile.

Then, Jiang Ming played the flute, and the Peacock Princess sang and danced, becoming even more charming than before.

"Elder Tang, I have long heard of your ten lifetimes of cultivation and your reincarnation as Jin Chanzi. Meeting you today, I can see that seeing is believing."

Princess Peacock said.

"Amitabha Buddha, these are all human cultures. If you like, you can go and explore them more."

Jiang Ming said in a relaxed tone.

"Elder Tang, look at my place. The scenery here is beautiful and clear. Although it is not as beautiful as the Jade Pool Wonderland, it still has exotic flowers and rare herbs, green waters and green mountains, and is quiet and secluded. It is worse than the paradise in the stories of the world. Elder Tang, why don't you stay here and cultivate with me for a while?"

Princess Peacock spoke.

“Fairy Maiden, this is indeed a wonderful place, but I have been entrusted by the Tang Emperor to travel to the Western Paradise to retrieve the Buddhist scriptures. The pleasures of the world are beyond my reach, and I cannot afford to waste even a day here.”

Jiang Ming immediately replied.

“The journey to the West is very important, but you and your disciples are destined to fail. The demons here are not something that Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing can withstand. Why don’t you stay here with me and see if they can defeat those monsters and come looking for you?”

Princess Peacock said earnestly.

"Why does the fairy say that?"

Jiang Ming immediately asked.

“Elder Tang, you are unaware of the fact that the demons of Lion Camel Ridge are incredibly powerful and possess boundless magical abilities. They are also protected by magical treasures. Even I have to give way to them. Even your disciples Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing, who all have some supernatural abilities, cannot defeat them.”

Princess Peacock said anxiously.

"Elder Tang, I am also a person who has cultivated and attained immortality. I fell in love with you at first sight. Our meeting today must be a destiny ordained by heaven. Why don't we be together and forget all our troubles?"

Princess Peacock came up again.
