Heavenly Court, Xitian and Demon Clan are currently the three major forces within the Three Realms. Among these three major forces, Heavenly Court and Xitian are about the same strength, while Demon Clan is weaker than Heavenly Court and Xitian.
But this time, in order to rescue Guanyin and others, in addition to Tathagata Buddha, Xitian almost came out in full force. Logically speaking, it was enough to overwhelm the demons.
However, with the arrival of demon reinforcements, Randen Ancient Buddha saw that everyone in Xitian was already defeated, and even began to be beaten and retreated one after another.
"There seems to be something wrong."
Ran Deng Ancient Buddha looked at the newly arrived demon reinforcements and felt very confused in his heart.
Among the new batch of demon reinforcements, many of them are very powerful and can reach the level of the first-class gods in heaven.
The elite combat power of the demons, including Maitreya Buddha, was known to the Ancient Buddha of the Deng Deng, but the Ancient Buddha of the Deng Deng had never seen this new group of people.
Of course, it cannot be said that they have not been seen before, but that they cannot be recognized at all, because those people are all dressed in black robes of the demon clan and do not reveal any description.
"Randeng, what do you think now?"
Maitreya Buddha laughed heartily and said sarcastically to the burning lamp.
"Damn it, even though you are powerful in numbers, once our Buddha arrives, you will all be doomed."
Although Xitian's troops were beaten and retreated steadily, Ran Deng was not convinced.
After all, this is not all the strength of Xitian. Tathagata Buddha, who is the most powerful in Xitian, has not arrived.
Tathagata Buddha's strength is at the top of the Three Realms. If he takes action, the demons will be defeated no matter how powerful they are.
"Randeng, don't place your hopes on your Buddha. He should not be concerned about you."
Maitreya Buddha seems to be very sure that the Tathagata will never come.
Of course, there is a reason for his certainty, and this reason comes from Chu Hao.
In fact, this was all arranged by Chu Hao. The demon clan's troops were those led by Maitreya Buddha. It could be said that they had no advantage against the elites of Randen Ancient Buddha and Xitian.
And those who came to support later were actually not the demons, but the men from the Hell Temple arranged by Chu Hao.
In addition to the men and horses of the Hell Temple, there are also some masters among the gods of heaven participating, so the Jade Emperor also has a share.
Essentially, this is Heaven and Demons joining forces to deal with Xi Tian.
However, this matter must be carried out secretly. After all, Heaven is the administrative headquarters of the Three Realms, which can be said to be an official organization.
In terms of reputation, the demons are equivalent to the gangsters in the Three Realms. If the official and the gangsters join forces, it will do too much damage to the reputation of Heavenly Court.
"Monks from the Western Heaven, form a formation for me!"
As the battle continued, Xitian's men and horses had suffered more and more casualties, and they were gradually unable to resist.
However, the Tathagata Buddha was still missing. The Ancient Buddha of Ran Deng was naturally anxious, so he had no choice but to let the Xitian troops form a defensive formation to support him.
"Why hasn't Buddha come yet?"
Everyone in Xitian was very confused.
In fact, it wasn't that Tathagata Buddha didn't want to come, but that he was delayed by Chu Hao.
Tathagata went to the Hell Temple to question the crime, but was refuted by Chu Hao and was speechless, so he wanted to leave right away.
But Chu Hao didn't want him to leave. He insisted on dragging Tathagata Buddha to the Jade Emperor for judgment and asking the Jade Emperor to make a fair judgment.
Tathagata Buddha had no choice but to be forcibly dragged to the Lingxiao Palace by Chu Hao.
"Prison God, Buddha, why are you two here?"
The Jade Emperor and Chu Hao had been communicating secretly, so naturally they already knew what was going on, but they still asked in a pretense of confusion.
"Jade Emperor, that's what happened."
Chu Hao explained to the Jade Emperor how he would release Guanyin and others, Guanyin and others were intercepted by the demons, Tathagata himself colluded with the demons, etc.
"Chu Hao, Guanyin and others have committed heinous crimes and should be imprisoned and tried. Why didn't you let me go without letting them go?"
After hearing this, the Jade Emperor immediately questioned Chu Hao.
This looked like he was asking Chu Hao for a crime, but in fact he was trying to show Tathagata Buddha's face, and his words focused on the crimes of Guanyin and others.
"No wonder the Jade Emperor, this is also because the Buddha begged hard and promised to redeem people with money. I was also moved by his sincerity."
Chu Hao said defensively.
"The Buddha's face can be given, but the loss to Heaven cannot be made with just an IOU. Of course, I also know that the Buddha will never default on the debt."
The Jade Emperor nodded and glanced at Tathagata secretly.
However, after talking for a long time, the Jade Emperor and Chu Hao focused on whether they should release Guanyin and others, as well as the Buddha's IOU.
They didn't get to the point at all. The two of them sang in harmony and talked very happily, which made Tathagata a little embarrassed.
"Chu Hao, aren't we here to ask the Jade Emperor to uphold justice? You can tell the result of a question in just a few sentences, why is it so long-winded?"
Tathagata said to Chu Hao, if Chu Hao and the Jade Emperor were allowed to continue like this, they might not be able to get to the point for a day or two.
"Buddha, don't be anxious. Since it is up to the Jade Emperor to uphold justice, I naturally have to explain the matter clearly to the Jade Emperor."
Chu Hao answered like this to Tathagata Buddha.
"What the God of Prison said is absolutely true. You must explain the whole matter to me carefully so that I can make a correct judgment. Otherwise, if I make a wrong judgment, wouldn't it destroy my own wisdom?"
The Jade Emperor was also unhurried and chatting.
"All right."
Tathagata Buddha is helpless. If the Jade Emperor does not make a judgment, Chu Hao will pester him, making it impossible for him to escape.
"I went on to say that according to the Buddha's wishes, I released Guanyin and others after all the problems were dealt with..."
Chu Hao then explained the situation carefully to the Jade Emperor.
However, Chu Hao did speak carefully enough and paid attention to details. He spent two or three hours talking about one thing, but only said less than a third of it.
The Jade Emperor also acted as if he was listening, but only he himself knew whether he listened or not.
Only Tathagata Buddha was very uneasy, and he couldn't bear the boredom.
"The ancient Buddha of Ran Deng, with all the combat power of Xitian, should be enough to deal with the demons."
Tathagata Buddha also remembered the duel between Randen Ancient Buddha and the demons, but in his opinion there should be no problem, after all, Xitian's strength was stronger than the demons.
But the actual situation is not like that. Although the ancient Buddha of Lanterns has extraordinary strength, it is difficult to restore the decline of Xitian's defeat.
"Retreat, return to the west."
After the defensive formation could not withstand the demon's offensive, the Ancient Buddha of Burning Deng had to order the Xitian troops to retreat immediately, which was actually equivalent to running away.
The direction of their escape was naturally the lair of Xitian Lingshan, but this was undoubtedly another very wrong decision.
Because Xitian's strength is all here, what will happen if they escape back to their nest?
