The purpose of these gods is almost the same, which is to follow Zhang Fan and see if there is any chance to make friends with him.
Since he is the master of Wu Gang and Pluto, his status is naturally very high. Even if he can establish a good relationship with him, it will be a great opportunity for them.
Normally, you won’t come across such a good opportunity.
All these gods were not stupid, and they all deserted and ran towards Zhang Fan.
When Taishang Laojun and the others came back, they saw a group of gods surrounding Zhang Fan. Next to Zhang Fan stood Wu Gang, and Wuming was also standing next to him, as if they wanted to protect Zhang Fan in the middle.
"Zhang Xianzun, congratulations!"
As soon as Taishang Laojun appeared, he greeted Zhang Fan with a smile and said congratulations.
This made everyone else stare at Taishang Laojun curiously, not knowing what he meant.
"The Jade Emperor has also heard about your arrival in Heaven and is very interested in the Immortal Venerable's origins, so he specially summoned Immortal Venerable Zhang to have a chat..."
Taishang Laojun's words were very polite. Although he used the word "summon", it also expressed the Jade Emperor's attitude. He was still very respectful to Zhang Fan and invited him to come over for a chat. This would not necessarily be polite to a god with unknown origins.
Besides, Zhang Fan is still a mortal. In the eyes of Taishang Laojun, they still gave Zhang Fan enough face. After saying all this, Taishang Laojun was waiting with a smile, waiting for Zhang Fan to go with him to see the Jade Emperor.
Who knew that Zhang Fan didn't think so.
Is this a gesture of goodwill from the Jade Emperor?
Summoning him seemed like a boon, and his opinion was not even asked. He was having a good time here at the moment and really didn't want to meet the Jade Emperor. He had no interest in that.
"Please tell His Majesty that I will be resting in the Mustard Seed Mountain and will leave soon. I am just an ordinary person, so he doesn't need to worry about me. Although Wu Gang has no ability, he is more than qualified to be a general in front of the palace..."
Zhang Fan bowed to Taishang Laojun, making his attitude clear.
After hearing what Wu Gang had said about the Jade Emperor, he was too lazy to go and pay him a visit.
If the Jade Emperor really dares to hold Wu Gang accountable, haha, they will regret it.
"Yes, yes. The Jade Emperor also said that General Wu was wasting his talent. Moreover, he did a great job in the underworld this time and also recruited the Pluto Wuming for the Heavenly Court. His Majesty was very happy and wanted to summon the Immortal Venerable to show his appreciation..."
"Haha, I don't like Hundred Flowers Wine!"
Zhang Fan's words made the smile on Taishang Laojun's face freeze. This, Zhang Fan was actually unhappy?
The Jade Emperor originally planned to give some Hundred Flowers Wine to Zhang Fan, and then win him over to have a fight with the people from Lingshan, or secretly support them to provoke the people from Lingshan, but he didn't expect that they didn't take the Heavenly Court seriously at all.
It even satirized Baihua Liquor.
This put Taishang Laojun in a dilemma. He could only smile awkwardly and keep saying some nice words of explanation to Zhang Fan.
"Zhang Xianzun has misunderstood. In fact, Your Majesty still admires you very much. I hope that you will go over so that we can have a good chat. Maybe we will meet too late..."
At this time, Taishang Laojun's words were even more infuriating.
Zhang Fan was even placed on the same level as the Jade Emperor, but if they were really on the same level, they would have to send out invitations first and then agree on a time to meet, instead of just hastily saying something like summons.
When summoning him failed, he said that he admired him and asked him to come over. Haha, there is no sincerity at all.
Zhang Fan complained in his heart, but Wang Lingguan and the barefoot immortal were all shocked, because it was rare for the Jade Emperor to be so polite, and it had been so many years.
The Jade Emperor has never been so polite to anyone!
But think about it again, Zhang Fan is the master of Wu Gang and Wuming, the master of Pluto, and an existence that can defeat Erlang Shen with one move. So everyone should be polite to someone like Zhang Fan.
They have the capital and confidence.
At this time, all the gods could only look at Zhang Fan with great concern, and then followed Taishang Laojun to persuade Zhang Fan.
"Zhang Xianzun, the Jade Emperor is courteous and invites you to come over for a chat. This is a great opportunity. You must come!"
"The Immortal Venerable has arrived today, and the Jade Emperor has invited you. This is a rare event that only happens once in a thousand years. Congratulations to the Immortal Venerable!"
"The Immortal Lord ascended to heaven in the body of a mortal. This is a grand event that has not happened in many years. We are fortunate to witness it. It is really a cause for celebration!"
…
Many people expressed congratulations and envy like this, but Zhang Fan did not really follow Taishang Laojun to meet the Jade Emperor as the gods had expected.
He just turned around and nodded at Hua Yueying.
"I'm tired. Let me go back first. I'll meet the Jade Emperor again when I'm free that day!"
When Zhang Fan said this, the gods who were originally surrounding him were all stunned and dumbfounded.
Because they didn't expect Zhang Fan to be so disrespectful?
Do you dare not accept the invitation from the Jade Emperor?
Is there anything more important in the world than an invitation from the Jade Emperor?
Besides, Zhang Fan didn’t do anything today. He just strolled around the garden. How could he be considered tired?
This is clearly an excuse to shirk responsibility. He simply doesn't want to see the Jade Emperor.
This courage is really terrifying.
Taishang Laojun didn't expect to hit such a big obstacle. He quickly pulled Wu Gang to persuade Zhang Fan to make a decision quickly. So many gods are here, but Zhang Fan doesn't give the Jade Emperor any face at all?
This, this, the Jade Emperor still wants to use Zhang Fan to deal with those people in Lingshan?
"Zhang Xianzun, Zhang Xianzun, please slow down. We can talk slowly if we have anything to say. Please don't leave, please don't leave..."
Taishang Laojun wanted to pull Zhang Fan to continue persuading him, but he didn't expect Zhang Fan to ignore him. He turned around and said to Wu Gang: "The scenery of this Mustard Seed Mountain is extremely beautiful, but it's a pity that there is no chance to visit the distant mountains..."
Zhang Fan felt a little regretful. These people were so annoying. Following him were like flies.
It kept making a buzzing sound, which was really annoying.
"My Lord!"
Wu Lian's heart tightened, and he felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have invited those gods this time. He should have just let the Lord have fun. What a pity, the priorities were reversed.
I hope I won’t make this mistake again next time.
After Zhang Fan said this, he did not make any move, but he quickly shook off those people and walked towards the lotus pond with Hua Yueying. Suddenly, he disappeared.
"Zhang Xianzun, Zhang Xianzun..."
When Zhang Fan returned to the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth, he even heard Taishang Laojun calling Zhang Fan with great regret.
"General Wu, what should we do? How can we contact your master? The Jade Emperor wants to see Immortal Master Zhang, you have to help me think of a way..."
Taishang Laojun bowed towards Wu Gang in great distress. He never expected that Zhang Fan would not give him any face at all!
