Ksitigarbha at a Loss, Qingyuan's Hand Tips the Scales, and a Divine Human Rises Among the Human Race
"Alas..."
At the edge of the Netherworld Sea of Blood.
A long, low sigh echoed across the boundless sea of blood, frightening countless Lost Souls into flight. Even the Asuras hid away until the danger passed.
It was not that the Asura Race was afraid of trouble.
But the four Asura Kings had issued strict orders during this time.
Before the Old Ancestor emerged from Secluded Cultivation, anyone who dared go out and stir up trouble only to get killed would receive no help from the Asura Race. Worse, their kin would be held responsible too!!
As a result, the Asura Race had been much quieter these past years.
"Have you made up your mind?"
Suddenly, a figure appeared beside King Ksitigarbha.
If the Two Shakya had seen that figure, they would have been dumbfounded.
For it was none other than Empress Pingxin, the Earthly Dao Saint!!
But why would Pingxin appear before their disciple?
"This disciple, Ksitigarbha, greets the Earthly Dao Saint."
King Ksitigarbha jolted to his senses and turned to bow respectfully.
"Heh..."
Empress Pingxin shook her head with a smile. "Even if you bowed a thousand times, ten thousand times, it would not repay me for saving your life three times."
"You are right, Your Grace..."
King Ksitigarbha's mouth twisted bitterly. He did not know what to say.
And in this matter, he truly had wronged the Earthly Dao Saint and owed her a debt of gratitude!!
As for those three times she had saved his life.
The first was when he had dared to scheme against the Heavenly Emperor, secretly intercepting a wisp of his True Spirit within the Six Paths of Reincarnation!
If the Heavenly Emperor discovered it, never mind whether Ksitigarbha would come to a good end.
The Western Teachings would certainly be extorted
