Chapter 128 Generous Rewards
Sun Wukong, after returning to the Heavenly Court, headed straight for the Tongming Hall, planning to inform His Majesty the Jade Emperor that Moluo might not be dead.
However, before that, he first voiced the doubt in his heart, "Your Majesty, why is it that with every reward, you always give me immortality peaches?"
Taibai Jinxing, standing by, clenched his beard tightly. The audacity of the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, who hailed from the North Pole, was growing, and how could he question the rewards bestowed by His Majesty the Jade Emperor?
His Majesty the Jade Emperor, who was reading, replied without lifting his head, "What, don’t you like eating them?"
Sun Wukong scratched his face, thinking the old man was not replying in a conventional manner, and again said jokingly, "Like them, like them very much, it’s just that this treasure is so precious, few immortals in all the three realms eat as well or as much as I do. I feel..."
His Majesty the Jade Emperor, puzzled, looked up, "If you like them, isn’t that enough?"
Sun Wukong knew he wouldn’t get anything out, and thought that he could only leave it to investigate slowly later on, of course, he hadn’t expected His Majesty the Jade Emperor to reveal it straight away anyway.
His Majesty the Jade Emperor lowered his head back to his book, saying, "Anything else? If there’s nothing, you may leave."
Sun Wukong’s expression turned serious, "Your Majesty, I feel that Moluo is not dead."
His Majesty the Jade Emperor set aside the book and said in a deep voice, "The reason."
