Buddhist Sect shaken? They come out in full force! Jade Emperor: Hiss?

Westward Journey world, Beneath the Five Finger Mountain, Sect Leader Tongtian, after helping Sun Wukong remove his golden fillet and seeing him off, glanced at Xuanming with some curiosity.

"Kid, you're just going to let him go like that?"

"What else?"

Xuanming shrugged, "He's Zhunti's carefully chosen disciple. If we don't let him see Buddhism's true face first, wouldn't cultivating him just benefit Buddhism?"

"Zhunti's disciple?!"

Upon hearing this, a murderous glint flashed through Tongtian's eyes. He frowned, "Xuanming, since you know he's Zhunti's disciple, why didn't you just kill him? Is there any room for reconciliation between us and the West?"

"Of course not!"

Xuanming first shook his head. Seeing Tongtian's puzzled expression, he smiled and explained, "Grandmaster, the West has 'converted' so many of our disciples, it's not too much for us to 'convert' one of his disciples, right?"

"Is it necessary?"

Tongtian still didn't quite agree. He hated traitors the most, whether they betrayed him or others.

"It's absolutely necessary!"

Xuanming's expression turned serious, "If there's anyone with the highest chance of becoming a Saint at this time, it's him."

"Moreover..."

Speaking of this, Xuanming's expression changed, and he said with a strange tone, "If we're being honest, this monkey is Empress Nuwa's child. We have to give her some face, don't we!"

Sect Leader Tongtian: "???"

Just as Sect Leader Tongtian and Xuanming were arguing about whether Sun Wukong's talent was strong enough, On Spirit Mountain, In the Great Hero Hall, Tathagata, seated at the head of the table, had a grave expression. He had a bad feeling, as if some catastrophic disaster was about to befall them.

But when he tried to divine it, he found nothing.

"Guanyin Bodhisattva!"

He subconsciously called out to his capable subordinate. Tathagata was about to inquire about Tang Sanzang and his disciples' movements when a mournful cry came from the side.

"No, it's bad!"

"My Buddha, My Buddha, it's bad!"

"..."

Tathagata's face turned ashen. Looking at the Arhat who scrambled into the hall, his already agitated heart was immediately filled with unbridled rage.

"What's all this panic? Is the sky falling?"

"Wuwu, wuwuwu..."

Bathed in Tathagata's Buddhist chant, the Arhat burst into tears. Sobbing, he reported, "My Buddha, Guanyin, Guanyin Bodhisattva's and Jin Chanzi's Buddhist souls have both shattered!"

"What?!"

"This is impossible!"

"How could this be?!"

As the Arhat's voice fell, the Arhats and Bodhisattvas on both sides of the Great Hero Hall, who had been silently serving as background props, were stunned.

What in the world?

Guanyin Bodhisattva's and Jin Chanzi's Buddhist souls shattered?

How is this possible!

Let's not even mention Guanyin Bodhisattva, who is a veteran Grand Unity Golden Immortal. Even a newly initiated Quasi-Saint might not be her match in a real fight.

And Jin Chanzi?

As an important pawn of Buddhism, he not only had protective spells left by Buddhas like Tathagata, but it was also rumored that he had received the protection of a legendary Saint.

How could his Buddhist soul be extinguished?

Not only did the Buddhas not believe it, Tathagata, who had recovered his senses, found it even more unbelievable. Unable to control himself, he reached out and pulled the Buddha towards him.

"Speak, who exactly are you? What is your purpose in coming to my Spirit Mountain?!"

"I, I My Buddha..."

The Buddha stared with his bloodshot eyes, his expression one of despair. "If you don't believe me, go see for yourself! Guanyin Bodhisattva and Jin Chanzi have truly met with misfortune!"

"..."

Tathagata took a deep breath. Although his reason told him that this person was talking nonsense, how could Guanyin and Jin Chanzi possibly be in trouble?

But his figure couldn't help but disappear into the Great Hero Hall.

The next moment...

"Boom!!"

As an aura of despair, brutality, and murderous intent rose from Spirit Mountain, Tathagata's voice, filled with killing intent, echoed for ten thousand miles.

"Old Jade Emperor, how dare you? Do you really think I wouldn't dare to kill you!"

"Guards!!"

"Assemble one hundred thousand monastic soldiers, and follow me to flatten Lingxiao Hall!!"

"..."

Listening to Tathagata's furious voice, everyone in Buddhism, whether they were in seclusion, sneaking snacks, or meeting lovers in secret, was stunned.

What in the world?

Flatten Lingxiao Hall?

Don't joke around!

Although their Buddhism had a great opportunity for prosperity last time by betting on Chanjiao and Renjiao, it hadn't prospered yet, had it?

Putting aside everything else, their two Saints from the West were definitely no match for Taishang and Yuanshi!

Attacking the Heavenly Court now?

Wasn't that like an old man with a birthday star eating arsenic, tired of living?

Thus, The ancient Buddha faction, led by Burning Lamp Buddha, stormed into the Great Hero Hall. Upon finding Tathagata, they immediately started scolding him.

"Tathagata, do you want to destroy our Buddhism?!"

"Exactly, exactly!"

"Have you even considered the consequences of rashly going to war with the Heavenly Court? Do the Saints know you're acting so recklessly?!"

"Hurry up and withdraw your order!"

"If things really escalate to an irreconcilable point, how will you explain yourself to the Saints!"

"..."

Staring at the Buddhist figures before him, including Burning Lamp, Maitreya, Medicine Master, and Amitabha, who appeared angry but were secretly pleased, Tathagata Buddha, who had regained his composure, merely sighed.

"Guanyin Bodhisattva and Jin Chanzi's Buddhist souls are shattered. If you all believe this matter is unimportant, then I will withdraw my order!"

"What?!"

"That's impossible!"

"Who would dare to interfere with what the Saints have agreed upon? Is there some mistake somewhere?!"

Upon hearing this, all the Buddhist figures were instantly dumbfounded. After coming to their senses, they spoke one after another, their faces displaying expressions as if the sky had fallen.

Yes!

The sky had fallen!

No matter who did this, they, as the high-ranking officials of Buddhism this term, would inevitably become the Saints' scapegoats.

Therefore, After a brief moment of panic, everyone quickly reached a consensus: they must drag the Heavenly Court down with them.

As long as the two Western Saints started fighting the two Eastern Saints, wouldn't they have no time to bother with them?

Even if they didn't fight, they could still shift the blame!

What could they do if a Saint made a move?

You two Western Saints are incompetent and couldn't get justice for Buddhism, and you still want to deal with us loyal subordinates?

Thus, The eight Buddhist Quasi-Saints, over twenty Bodhisattvas (Grand Unity Golden Immortals), and hundreds of Arhats (Grand Unity Golden Immortals), along with the one hundred thousand assembled monastic soldiers, marched mightily towards the Heavenly Court.

Meanwhile, At the Heavenly Court, In Lingxiao Hall, The Jade Emperor, unaware of the impending disaster, was frowning and staring at Taibai Jinxing before him, his tone laced with seven parts doubt.

"You're saying that Yunxiao, one of the San Xiao, has escaped from Kirin Cliff? And is currently in the Heavenly Court contacting remnants of the Jiejiao Sect?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this matter is absolutely true!"

Taibai Jinxing's expression was solemn, and his voice was heavy. "Zhao Gongming, Wen Zhong, and others have all visited San Xiao's residence these past few days. According to those who saw them, they had smiles on their faces that they couldn't hide when they left!"

Jade Emperor: "Hiss~!"
