They still maintain their original identities, so it is difficult for them to be exposed due to the crowd of people.
Lin Xian flew high into the sky, and then they appeared.
"This matter is over, thank you all." Lin Xian looked at the three of them.
"You're welcome." Mother Lishan said, her attitude towards Lin Xian changed slightly.
"If this happens again in the future, you must call me again." Zhen Yuanzi said cheerfully.
Lu Ya also chuckled, "That's right, what we like to do most is to target Buddhism."
After chatting for a while, the three of them said goodbye and left one by one.
Lin Xian flew down and ordered the scripture-seeking teams to get ready.
The next day, everyone got on the road and continued westward.
A few days after Lin Xian left, Kong Xuan also took the burning lantern and headed towards Xitianling Mountain.
Inside the Daleiyin Temple.
Kong Xuan grabbed Ran Deng and walked forward step by step. Ran Deng was still shaking his head, cross-eyed, and kept mumbling something.
This mysterious appearance instantly fell into the eyes of the Buddhas in Lingshan, making them greatly surprised.
Tathagata also looked at Ran Deng's behavior and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He pointed at Ran Deng and looked at Kong Xuan, and asked in confusion: "Bodhisattva, Great Ming King, what happened to Ancient Buddha Ran Deng...?"
Kong Xuan shook his head and sighed: "The ancient Buddha of Deng Deng has become a fool. This matter... it's a long story."
Tathagata was suddenly stunned.
I sent Ran Deng to secretly investigate the situation in Shituoling without letting him show up. Could it be that he was discovered?
And looking at Ran Deng’s appearance, what kind of inhumane torture did he go through to become what he is today?
"King Ming, tell me quickly, what happened?" Tathagata looked a little anxious.
Kong Xuan sighed again.
Previously, Sun Wukong came to Lingshan and pretended to ask for help, but ended up fabricating a mysterious, non-existent quasi-sage peak demon king. Now Kong Xuan has to make up for this lie.
This monkey can't deal with him, he's too good at lying.
Then Kong Xuan said helplessly: "Randeng wanted to save us, but he was discovered by the demon king and fought with him. In the end, both sides suffered losses, and Randeng became what it is now."
"What about the demon king?" Tathagata asked again.
"Dead. Fortunately, at the critical moment, the Buddhist monk took action and killed the dying demon king, saving everyone."
Tathagata nodded with satisfaction after hearing this.
He felt relieved that the pilgrim was safe.
As for Kong Xuan, Tathagata still trusted him immensely and had no doubts.
Kong Xuan didn't say anything more. He took the burning lamp and walked to the Moonlight Bodhisattva next to him, and handed the burning lamp into the hands of the Moonlight Bodhisattva with his own hands.
The Moonlight Bodhisattva blinked his eyes, looking confused.
"Farewell."
Kong Xuan disagreed and turned around to leave, but after taking two steps, he turned around and looked at Tathagata.
"By the way, I almost forgot to tell Buddha another thing. Xiaolai, if you come to see me in the future, go to Shituo City in Shituo Ridge. I will settle there in the future."
Tathagata was suddenly stunned.
The great Ming King Bodhisattva Kongxuan wants to settle down in Shituoling?
Why do you feel like you are going to the lower world to become a demon? !
"The freedom in heaven is better than the lower world. Why are you settling in the lower world?" Tathagata asked.
Tathagata said, is it because the fairies in the sky are not beautiful, or the air in the sky is not fresh, that you have to go to the lower world?
Kong Xuan shrugged and said: "Marshal Tianpeng gave me a very difficult task. He asked me to manage the sixth branch of the Tiantian Sect in Shituoling. I couldn't refuse, so I simply agreed."
"What?" Tathagata was shocked.
Isn't it a bit unreasonable for you, the great Buddhist Peacock King Bodhisattva, to actually listen to the orders of a Buddhist monk?
But Tathagata was not particularly surprised by this.
What puzzled him the most was that the pilgrims actually established a sixth branch of the sect.
It has only been a short time since then, and chain stores are about to open across the four continents.
Tathagata was confused. No matter how stupid he was, he could still understand that the hundreds of thousands of monsters in Shituoling must have been reorganized by Marshal Tianpeng.
As a result, the number of followers of the Destroying Heaven Sect increased by hundreds of thousands.
This expansion speed is faster than the great prosperity of Buddhism.
"King Daming, if you don't act as a good Bodhisattva, why would you take care of the Mietian Sect on behalf of Marshal Tianpeng?" Tathagata's face was a little gloomy.
"I'm happy, you care about me?" Kong Xuan rolled his eyes.
In this way, Kong Xuan walked out of Daleiyin Temple under the incredible eyes of the Buddhas in Lingshan.
Tathagata's expression was extremely complex.
He looked at the distant sky and then at the Buddhas in Lingshan Mountain, always feeling that something bad was about to happen.
Sure enough, not long after Kong Xuan left, Puxian came back from Tianwaitian.
Pu Xian's expression was extremely eye-catching. There were two very eye-catching slap marks on his face. His nose was bruised and his face was swollen. It looked like he had been beaten by a saint.
Sure enough, when the saint is angry, anyone will beat him.
The Tathagata has inherited all the mantles of the saints.
Seeing Samantabhadra like this, Tathagata couldn't help but want to laugh a little.
I know the saint too well, but whenever something bad happens, the saint will always take action to beat people, and the only way to solve this problem is to send others to go up.
"Reporting to Buddha, I am back." Samantabhadra bowed.
Tathagata asked, "Did the sage say anything?"
Samantabhadra raised his head, and there was obviously some resentment in his expression, but he did not explode, but said calmly: "Report to the Buddha, the saint asked me to send a message, saying that the Buddha, and Maitreya Buddha, you two, bring the burning lamp to the ancient Buddha , go up together to meet them."
As soon as he finished speaking, the faint smile on Tathagata's face immediately stiffened.
Just now, he was secretly proud. If something happened in the future, he would send someone to get beaten for him. As a result, the saint would summon him later.
Not just him, but the past, present, and future, their three generations of Buddhas.
Ran Deng has become a fool, is it still necessary to go up to see the saint?
Maitreya was sitting there alone, his expression half-smiling but not smiling, looking very strange.
Seeing Maitreya's expression, Tathagata couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart. The bad feeling became stronger, and he knew in his heart that it was really over.
The Lingya Immortal worshiped Marshal Tianpeng as his teacher and joined the Mietian Sect. Kong Xuan, the good Daming King Bodhisattva, went to the lower realms to manage the Mietian Sect. The Winged Immortal of Daluo Jinxian died, and the quasi-sage late stage Kunpeng is gone too.
In addition, Ran Deng has become a fool, and this time things are very serious.
Tathagata can feel that if he goes up, he will have to be peeled off by the saint. What's more serious is that his position as the Buddha may not be preserved.
"It doesn't matter, I did it all by myself, and I can only act according to the circumstances." Tathagata sighed in his heart, this trip will be unlucky, and he must be prepared to be beaten in advance.
Immediately, Tathagata glanced at Maitreya.
Maitreya was still there laughing.
"Fat man, why are you laughing? I have tolerated you for a long time." Tathagata frowned and said, "Such a serious thing has happened. We are about to be summoned by a saint. How can you still laugh?"
Maitreya spread his hands, "You planned all of this yourself and have something to do with me? Even if you go up, you will be the one who gets beaten."
"You..." Tathagata suddenly gritted his teeth in anger.
He was indeed the one who planned all of this. He first let Kunpeng go down to the lower realm, and then let Kong Xuan go down as well. In the end, the disaster was not completed.
But the major event of the journey to the west is the matter of Lingshan. Maitreya actually separated you and me from him at this time, which made Tathagata very angry.
