The situation in Heaven is similar to what Yang Jiao said before, but the Jade Emperor said it in more detail.
Chen Qing regarded herself as a perfect listener, echoing from time to time, but not raising any questions.
Chen Qing was able to live in such harmony with the Jade Emperor. After so many years, there was almost no gap because they both guarded their sense of boundaries.
Chen Qing would never question the orders of the Jade Emperor, nor would he start to point fingers just because his merits were great enough.
The Jade Emperor has always fully supported Chen Qing's decision.
This resulted in them never having any suspicion or distrust of each other.
Chen Qing, the Jade Emperor, and the Queen Mother were drinking and talking about various things in Yaochi.
As he talked, he talked about Buddhism.
"I heard from Yang Jiao that His Majesty is somewhat hesitant about Buddhism's request for help?" Chen Qing asked.
The Jade Emperor nodded, "There is indeed some hesitation."
"What conditions did they give?" Chen Qing was a little curious.
The Jade Emperor was never an indecisive person, nor was he greedy.
The Jade Emperor was very decisive in making choices.
Now that Heaven has made a decision to help Chen Qing achieve enlightenment, it is best not to make any mistakes at this time.
And helping Buddhism is where problems are most likely to arise at this stage.
Therefore, Chen Qing was very curious as to what conditions the Buddhist side had put in place that could make the Jade Emperor hesitate at this time.
The Jade Emperor did not hide anything, and said: "Tathagata Many Treasures told me that once Heaven comes to help this time, Buddhism will follow Heaven's lead and officially join Heaven's command."
When Chen Qing heard this, his heart couldn't help but beat wildly, and he even breathed a little heavier involuntarily.
Even though Heavenly Court is nominally the highest institution that governs the three realms, in fact, Buddhism and Taoism can never be brought under its command.
Unless there is a problem with the Taoist Sect, the Second Sage of the West, or even the Taoist Ancestor, it is possible.
But now, the leader of Buddhism, Duobao Tathagata, the ancestor of ten thousand Buddhas, has personally promised that if the Jade Emperor agrees to help Heaven, then he will throw Buddhism into Heaven.
This is not in name only, but in fact, even the luck of Buddhism needs to support part of the heaven.
What's more, the meanings represented here are also different. When Chen Qing heard this condition, he even wanted to agree.
For Heaven, this is a rare opportunity in millions of years.
But soon, Chen Qing forced himself to calm down, and instead of speaking in a hurry, he began to think carefully.
In Chen Qing's view, Duobao Tathagata would not be so unwise. Although Buddhism is in a difficult situation now, it would not really reach this point.
Then why would Duobao Tathagata put forward such a condition?
If the Jade Emperor agreed, it would not be that simple for Duobao Tathagata to go back on his word.
The luck and cause and effect involved, let alone the Tathagata Tathagata Many Treasures, even the saint will have a headache for this.
Soon, Chen Qing seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes gradually brightened.
"I can't agree." Chen Qing said slowly.
Both the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother nodded, "I know that it is not appropriate to make any big moves this time. Everything is focused on the Emperor's enlightenment."
Chen Qing shook his head and said: "Although this matter is related to me, it is not entirely because of this."
With that said, Chen Qing pointed in the direction of Buddhism and said, "Have you ever thought about the current relationship between Buddhism and Western religions?"
The Jade Emperor seemed to understand something when he heard this. He had been in a dilemma before, and it would be a lie to say that he was not moved.
Although I also thought about some of the situations inside, I didn't have any ideas.
Now that Chen Qing said this, he seemed to understand a little.
Chen Qing took a deep breath, "Now the relationship between Buddhism and Western religion, or to be precise, the two sages of the West, is very complicated."
"But one thing that can be confirmed is that the Second Sage of the West will never allow Buddhism to be merged into Heaven."
Originally, the two sages of the West lost a lot of luck because of the Tathagata Many Treasures who established a separate Buddhist school.
But at that time, due to the calculation of Saint Taiqing and some other reasons, they could only suffer a loss.
But if Buddhism is allowed to be merged into Heaven, then they will receive less luck in the future, and even the connection with them will weaken.
Buddhism is still the orthodoxy of the Two Saints in the West, but if it is merged into the Heavenly Court and reorganized by the Heavenly Court in the future, it may be difficult to say.
This is absolutely not allowed by them.
"So, if our Heavenly Court really chooses to accept Buddhism, then the Second Sage of the West will definitely regard our Heavenly Court as its primary enemy."
"And when that time comes, he may not have two saints to stop him on his way to attaining the Tathagata of Many Treasures!"
After Chen Qing finished speaking, something was wrong with the way he looked at Buddhism. He felt that his guess was not wrong at all.
In fact, this is not complicated at all. As long as you understand some of the inside information and put aside temptation, it shouldn't be difficult to guess.
But just these two points have blocked many people out. Not many people know the inside story of Buddhism and Western religion.
Even for the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, most of them are just guesses based on some news.
After that, I was firmly attracted by this condition and couldn't break free.
The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother also looked in the direction of Buddhism, and they also felt that what Chen Qing said seemed to be right.
"Fortunately, I didn't agree at that time, otherwise I would have ruined the great emperor's event." The Jade Emperor couldn't help but feel a little lucky in his heart.
You must know that it is extremely difficult for any quasi-sage to achieve enlightenment and become a saint nowadays, and there are saints blocking the way.
As for Chen Qing, he is actually similar to those casual cultivators. Apart from having some helpers, the saint has no choice at all.
Unlike those disciples of saints, his master would not take action.
Therefore, there will naturally be one more saint blocking the way than Duobao Tathagata and others.
If the Two Saints of the West keep staring at Chen Qing at this time, it will be even more difficult for Chen Qing to achieve enlightenment.
The Queen Mother also had some lingering fears at this time, "I didn't expect that the Tathagata Many Treasures had such sinister intentions."
When Chen Qing heard this, he just shook his head in his heart. The intention was not sinister, because everyone had reached this point, and they were all the same.
As long as it doesn't go against one's own heart and Taoist thoughts, I won't be stingy with any other means.
"But there's one thing I can't figure out. If it's as I guessed, even if the Tathagata Duobao succeeds in attaining enlightenment, Buddhism's blessings on his luck will be greatly reduced. This is not a good thing for him." Chen Qing said.
The Jade Emperor smiled when he heard the words, "No, this is very easy to understand, because the Tathagata Duobao wants to inherit the destiny of Buddhism, which is prerequisite for becoming a saint. Now everything needs to be paved for this, and the rest can be Let’s talk about it later.”
Chen Qing suddenly realized that he was overthinking it again.
