Peach Demon stood where she was, her eyes flickering with uncertainty.
"Is it very dangerous?" Peach Demon asked the Earth God.
"The High Heaven Grand Array protects High Heaven Hall. It is extraordinarily dangerous," the earth deity replied.
"Earth God, please send me out as well. I want to help him."
The Earth God shook his head. "Island Master Peach, I just sent the Great Sage out, and it already used up more than half my strength. I can no longer send another person out."
"Is there any other way to leave the Peach Orchard besides this?"
"No. If there is, then we can only wait until dawn, when the Peach Orchard's formation opens on its own."
Peach Demon was deeply worried. Though she had never seen the High Heaven Grand Array, it had to be immensely powerful, or it would not be worthy of guarding High Heaven Hall.
Goku was heading there alone now. Peach Demon was worried, yet utterly powerless.
After leaving the Peach Orchard, Goku headed toward High Heaven Hall. But when he arrived nearby, he encountered several people.
They were three of the Twenty-Eight Mansions: Ghost Golden Goat, Lou Golden Dog, and Room Sun Rabbit.
The three of them sat leisurely outside High Heaven Hall with several subordinates, chatting casually.
"Tell me, if we kill Goku and the Peach Blossom Clan this time, what will His Majesty think of us?"
"I think he'll surely reward us with plenty of wealth and elixirs."
"That isn't what we want. We want higher status and greater power. Once our status is high and our power is great, won't wealth and elixirs come easily?"
"Exactly. Once we kill Goku and Peach Demon, then deal with Uchiha Shin down below, the status of us Twenty-Eight Mansions will rise even higher."
