A little closer, Sun Wukong saw that the garden was filled with many ancient trees, each bearing peaches.

Even just looking at them, Sun Wukong felt that these peaches were no ordinary fruit.

"Peaches."

Sun Wukong arrived at the answer in his heart.

"Peach Garden, maybe I can try it," Sun Wukong's heart stirred.

On one hand, Sun Wukong knew that peaches were likely very precious. On the other hand, the peaches were truly tempting him.

After all, Sun Wukong was still a monkey.

In the original history, the Heavenly Court had him guard the Peach Garden, which was essentially making it easier for him to steal from himself.

"Sun Wukong, why are you not in your designated place and instead came to my Peach Garden?" Before Sun Wukong could enter the Peach Garden, a woman's voice emerged.

Under Sun Wukong's gaze, a woman in magnificent attire slowly appeared. Her eyes were like stars, and she was an utterly beautiful woman.

However, to Sun Wukong, this woman held no attraction.

What made Sun Wukong cautious was the terrifying aura emanating from the woman.

That aura surpassed that of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, and was even comparable to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva whom he had met before.

A Quasi-Saint expert?

Sun Wukong felt like spitting blood.

He had just met the terrifying Tai Shang Lao Jun, and now he encountered another Quasi-Saint expert.

Was the Heavenly Court this powerful?

Then, in a way, his own rebellion in Heaven in history was truly a joke.

"Who are you?" Sun Wukong asked.

"I am the Queen Mother," the woman said indifferently.

The Queen Mother was also one of the great figures of the Heavenly Court. When the Peach Banquet was held, all the gods had to show her respect.

According to history, the Queen Mother should be holding the Peach Banquet around this time.

This was when Sun Wukong entered the Heavenly Court for the second time, guarding the Peach Garden.

He just hadn't expected the Queen Mother to appear in the Peach Garden at this time.

Trying to snatch the peaches within seemed unlikely now.

"Queen Mother, this old monkey is lost," Sun Wukong said foolishly, using the same explanation he had given Tai Shang Lao Jun earlier.

"..." The Queen Mother's eyes held a smile. "Your place is over there."

"Then thank you," Sun Wukong nodded. "This old monkey bids farewell."

With that, Sun Wukong immediately left the Peach Garden.

"Sun Wukong," the Queen Mother frowned. "I have a feeling this monkey is not simple."

Regardless of the Queen Mother's suspicions.

Sun Wukong, who had left, felt a tinge of sadness. Trying to snatch a treasure from a powerful figure seemed impossible.

"It seems there's no other way. My friends, the Immortals and Gods, please don't blame me." A cunning glint appeared in Sun Wukong's eyes.

At this moment.

Sun Wukong decided to implement the same tactic he used in the Underworld: ambushing the Immortals and Gods.

Grand Unity experts, or even Quasi-Saint overlords, were beyond his reach.

But what about the gods below them? He could still make a move, right?

At this moment.

Many gods in their respective residences felt the hairs on their bodies stand on end.

They had no idea that a god in the Heavenly Court had already set his sights on them.

Heavenly Court, a certain residence.

This residence was generally vacant, but now its owner had appeared.

This was an extremely powerful expert.

A great figure from the first generation of humans, Grand Master Xuandu.

Grand Master Xuandu, as one of the first generation of humans, had apprenticed himself to Laozi and become the chief disciple of the Ren Sect.

Among the Three Pure Ones, Laozi had only one disciple, and that was Grand Master Xuandu.

Laozi advocated for tranquility and non-action, and Grand Master Xuandu followed suit.

Therefore, even during the Battle of the Gods, Grand Master Xuandu did not participate.

But no one dared to underestimate Grand Master Xuandu's strength.

As Laozi's disciple and the foremost disciple of the Ren Sect, Xuandu possessed astonishing merit and fortune.

His strength might also rival that of top-tier Quasi-Saint powerhouses.

Among the three sects, Guangchengzi, who was highly favored by Yuanshi Tianzun in the past, and even Daoist Duobao, the foremost disciple of the Intercepting Sect back then, would likely not be a match for Grand Master Xuandu.

This was the astonishing strength of this foremost disciple of the Ren Sect.

Perhaps only Duobao betrayed the Heavenly Origin Sect and joined Buddhism, becoming the current Tathagata.

At this time, Buddha Tathagata and the current Grand Master Xuandu could contend against each other.

This time, Grand Master Xuandu came here under his master's orders.

Saint Laozi, the karma formed between him and the Two Sages of the West during the Investiture of the Gods, sometimes needed to be repaid.

"Greetings, Master." Marshal Tian Peng appeared and respectfully bowed to Grand Master Xuandu.

Marshal Tian Peng knew about his master; he was the foremost disciple of the Ren Sect, a renowned Quasi-Saint powerhouse.

It was a pity that he was only a nominal disciple of Grand Master Xuandu, not a true one.

Chapter Twenty-Two: The Rise of Humanity, Becoming the Master of Heaven and Earth!

Regardless.

There was still a significant gap between a nominal disciple and a true disciple.

Marshal Tian Peng also wanted to work hard and see if he could become Grand Master Xuandu's true disciple.

Unfortunately, Grand Master Xuandu rarely came to the Heavenly Court.

This was even more so after Marshal Tian Peng became the general in charge of the Heavenly River.

After all, Grand Master Xuandu was not an immortal god of the Heavenly Court; he was the foremost disciple of the Ren Sect and, under normal circumstances, was always in cultivation.

This time, Xuandu's sudden appearance in the Heavenly Court was somewhat unexpected for Marshal Tian Peng.

"Tian Peng, it has been a long time since we last met," Xuandu said calmly, looking at the heroic and spirited Tian Peng before him.

"Yes, Master. Many years have passed since our last parting," Marshal Tian Peng nodded.

"I remember when you were just a mortal, and now you have become an immortal god of the Heavenly Court," Xuandu remarked with emotion.

Marshal Tian Peng had indeed gone from a mortal to the immortal god he was now.

Such a situation was rare in the current Heavenly Court.

One had to know that most of the immortals and gods who formed the Heavenly Court were those who had fallen during the Battle of the Gods.

Whether they were disciples of the Heavenly Origin Sect or the Intercepting Sect, there were few humans among them.

This resulted in very few humans achieving immortality in the Heavenly Court, and even fewer occupying the highest positions.

The Six Emperors who held power in the Heavenly Court.

Besides Haotian, there were also Saints like Yuanshi Tianzun, Nuwa, and Houtu.

After the Investiture of the Gods, although the Heavenly Origin Sect had disciples like Cihang who betrayed them, there were still disciples of the Heavenly Origin Sect who held positions among the Six Emperors.

Therefore, compared to the Intercepting Sect, the Heavenly Origin Sect's situation was still quite good.

Otherwise, if the face-conscious Yuanshi Tianzun saw the Two Sages of the West abducting his disciples, he would probably disregard his reputation and attack the Two Sages of the West directly.

Compared to the tragic state of the Intercepting Sect back then, Yuanshi Tianzun's Heavenly Origin Sect had not suffered fatal damage.

Putting these aside for now, Marshal Tian Peng immediately responded to Xuandu's sigh of emotion, "Master, this is all thanks to your help. If you hadn't guided me and bestowed pills upon me back then, I wouldn't have reached this point."

It could be said that as a human, Marshal Tian Peng's journey to becoming an immortal was truly smooth sailing.

Naturally, Marshal Tian Peng himself had also put in a lot of effort; otherwise, how could he have become Marshal Tian Peng of the Heavenly Court?

Positions of real power also required capable immortal gods to hold them.

Just like Sun Wukong in the original history, whether it was Bimawen or the one in charge of the Peach Garden, these roles did not hold much power.

"Mm, Tian Peng, your efforts have also played a significant role in reaching this point," Grand Master Xuandu said with a smile. "I came to find you this time because there is something I need to tell you."
