NOVEL ONLINE FREE Chapter 18: Supreme Council Collapsed
The Celestial Supreme Council had prepared for every possible disaster.
They had contingencies for offending the Supreme Family.
They had fail-safes for accidentally feeding them something they didn't like.
They even had escape plans in case one of their celestial guests made the mistake of looking at them the wrong way.
Yet, the moment the Supreme Family arrived, everything fell apart.

Son-Wu San, Li-Yan Mei, Xian Xue, and Xian Long stepped into the Celestial Banquet Hall.
The hall was vast, an endless space filled with floating celestial islands, shimmering galaxies as chandeliers, and divine beings from across existence bowing so low their heads touched the floor.
The Supreme Archon of the Multiverse himself stood at the entrance, his divine aura trembling as he greeted them.
"W-We welcome the Supreme Family to the Grand Banquet of the Ages! It is our eternal honor to—"
"Yo, is that a chocolate fountain?" Xian Long interrupted.
Every celestial being froze.
A chocolate fountain? A mere mortal delicacy had caught the attention of the Supreme Son?!
The Great Dessert Divinity collapsed in relief.
The celestial chefs started sobbing.
The Supreme Archon mentally rewrote their entire food budget.
"Yes! Y-Yes, Supreme Young Master! That is indeed the Celestial Chocolate Fountain of Infinite Sweetness! It is made from the finest cocoa harvested from the Ethereal Cocoa Trees of the Heavenly Realm!"
Xian Long had already grabbed a fruit from a divine platter and dunked it straight in.
"Meh. Tastes like normal chocolate."
The Great Dessert Divinity fainted.

Meanwhile, Xian Xue was investigating the divine pets brought to entertain the family.
Celestial phoenixes, divine kirins, and cosmic spirit dragons all stood in a majestic line, their forms radiating primal power.
The Supreme Archon smiled nervously. "We have gathered the rarest divine beasts in existence for your enjoyment, Supreme Young Mistress. Would you—"
Xian Xue's eyes widened as she spotted…
A chubby celestial rabbit.
It was barely the size of her palm.
"…Can I keep this one?"
Every single divine beast immediately knelt before her, begging to be chosen instead.
The Celestial Dragon Lord, a being so powerful that his breath alone could erase galaxies, lowered his massive head to her feet.
"I—I can shapeshift into a rabbit, Supreme Young Mistress! Please take me instead!"
The chubby celestial rabbit shivered in fear.
Xian Xue picked it up anyway. "I'll name you Fluffy."
The Celestial Dragon Lord screamed internally.
---
Li-Yan Mei, meanwhile, was completely overwhelmed.
Not by the divine banquet.
Not by the endless respect from celestial beings.
Not even by the fact that entire realms were offering their treasures just to impress them.
No.
She was overwhelmed because someone had actually prepared a normal tea set for her.
Her hands trembled as she picked up a simple ceramic cup, unadorned, plain, filled with perfectly brewed jasmine tea.
She took a sip.
She sighed in contentment.
The Supreme Tea God immediately broke into tears. "It—it was worth it! My life's purpose has been fulfilled!"
The Heavenly Pavilion of Infinite Elixirs instantly switched to tea production.
---
Son-Wu San had no idea why everyone was acting so nervous.
He just grabbed a skewer of immortal beast meat, chewed, and casually spoke.
"This is good. We should come to these parties more often."
The entire Celestial Supreme Council collapsed in relief.
They had survived.
For now.
---
Little did they know, the real chaos was about to begin.
Because the other supreme powers of the multiverse had just received word of this banquet…
And they were not happy.
