Chapter 700: Chapter 700

Guanyin Bodhisattva felt a trace of annoyance and bellowed, "Sun Wukong, how long are you going to keep this hidden? Where exactly is Tang Sanzang?"

Sun Wukong was startled; this lady really can be a bit scary when she’s angry.

"Bodhisattva, I swear I’m not lying to you. My master is visiting a friend’s house, eating well and drinking well, gaining two kilograms in three days."

Thoughts whirred through Sun Wukong’s head; my poor nephew has been separated from his parents, left home in such a desolate state, if I reveal his whereabouts, won’t that make his situation even more miserable? Immediately, he said, "He’s having a great time talking with my big brother at Jilei Mountain in the Sky Scraping Cave."

After all, the Bull Demon King is no good bull, abandoning his wife and child, he deserves a lesson; if the Buddhists come to attack, I, Old Sun, will plead for him and spare his life, or else I’m not going on the Westward Journey anymore.

Guanyin Bodhisattva’s thoughts raced through her head: Jilei Mountain, Sky Scraping Cave, Bull Demon King, Kui Niu, the mount of the Tongtian Sect Master of the Jie Sect, the Senior Disciple of the Jie Sect Outer Disciples Bai Jin — it’s conclusive, Bai Jin must have meddled in this.

At the Heavenly Court, Bai Jin sneezed twice in succession, feeling like a beauty must be thinking about him, touched his nose, then continued to lounge in the swimming pool and soak in the hot springs.

Concerning Bai Jin, Guanyin Bodhisattva dared not be careless, and her resounding voice echoed: "Wukong, go back. I will report to the Buddha and then decide next steps. Do not hide anything next time."

"Alright, alright, Old Sun is heading back." Sun Wukong turned his Cloud Head and flew towards the Lower Realm.

The huge Dharma Image of Guanyin Bodhisattva faded and disappeared.

Inside the Great Leiyin Temple, the figure of Guanyin Bodhisattva appeared from a Lotus Platform, looking upwards, she said, "Your Holiness, I have questioned Sun Wukong, according to him, it was Emperor Gouchen Bai Jin who directed the Bull Demon King at Jilei Mountain to capture Tang Sanzang."

Indeed, it was him. He assured me last time, promising he wouldn’t interfere in the Westward Journey; nor would he obstruct it, yet now he suddenly captured Tang Sanzang. Those who curry favor by flattery, truly not a single truth is told among them.

The Tathagata Buddha’s resounding voice emanated, "Buddhism must flourish, Jilei Mountain stands in the path of scripture transmission and must be uprooted.

Order the Bright Buddha, Qing Guang Buddha, and White Light Buddha to go to Jilei Mountain to rescue Tang Sanzang.

Command the Blood Mosquito Great Bright King Bodhisattva, Randeng Ancient Buddha, Maitreya Buddha, Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva, Great Sun Tathagata, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Universal Virtue Bodhisattva, and Manjusri Bodhisattva to be ready for support at any time."

"Yes!" Guanyin Bodhisattva responded and quickly departed.

Then, the entire Spiritual Mountain was filled with a tense atmosphere, currents of Tao rhythm ascended, resonating at a Quasi-Saint Level.

Meanwhile, Sun Wukong landed back at Kusong Stream, alongside the horse carriage where Sha Wujing and Zhu Bajie quickly stood up.

Zhu Bajie called out expectantly, "Brother Monkey, have the reinforcements arrived?"

Sun Wukong said irritably, "Ah~ don’t mention it. I ran into Guanyin Bodhisattva on the way, she told me to come back and wait, she has to go back for discussions."

Sha Wujing grinned and said, "Brother, this is also good. With Buddhism stepping in, our master will definitely be rescued, and we can relax too."

Sun Wukong leapt up, lying on top of the carriage, saying, "Forget it, Old Sun also enjoys the peace."

Zhu Bajie quietly walked to a big tree, pulled out his Three Realms Mall, and found a contact named Secretary, typing a message, "Secretary, Tang Sanzang has fallen into the hands of the Bull Demon King at Jilei Mountain, Buddhism might take action against the Bull Demon King."

On the other side, Sha Wujing stealthily hid behind a large tree, took out his Three Realms Mall, and found a friend named Emperor of Heaven, typing a message, "Your Majesty, Tang Sanzang has fallen into the hands of the Bull Demon King at Jilei Mountain, Buddhism might take action against the Bull Demon King."

Sun Wukong lay on top of the horse carriage, calling out, "Bajie, Wujing, what do you want to eat? Today it’s my treat."

Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing quickly packed up the Three Realms Mall and came out laughing.

"Brother Monkey is treating, I want a feast."

"Thanks, Elder Brother!"

Inside the Heavenly Court, Shi Ji quickly approached the Bird’s Nest, seeing the gates closed, he stood waiting in front of the door.

A moment later, Bai Jin, carrying several packages, returned from afar with a joyful smile on his face.

Shi Ji stepped forward and said, "Elder Brother, did you go to the Doushuai Temple again?"

"Yes! Just returned from Doushuai Temple. Auntie went to the Lower Realm this time and brought back many good things. She insisted on giving me some, and I couldn’t postpone or refuse, so I had to accept them.

Junior Sister, come see if there’s anything you like."

Shi Ji shook his head with a smile and said, "I dare not accept something that Auntie gifted to Elder Brother." ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by NoveI(F)ire.net

"Don’t worry, Auntie won’t mind."

"Auntie might not mind because of her generosity, but as a junior, I really should not be presumptuous."

"Hmm! You make a good point."

As they spoke, the two entered the Bird’s Nest and sat down in the pavilion in the courtyard.

Bai Jin curiously asked, "Junior Sister, you’ve been waiting at the door for a long time, is there something you need?"

Shi Ji immediately became serious and said, "Elder Brother, just now, Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy sent news that the Bull Demon King has captured Tang Sanzang. Buddhism might take action against the Bull Demon King."

"Eh~ Are Tang Sanzang and his group moving so quickly? They’ve already reached the Flame Mountain."

"I specifically asked the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy. It was Red Boy who captured Tang Sanzang and handed him over to the Bull Demon King as a gesture of filial piety and to ease the relationship between his own parents."

Bai Jin sighed inwardly, thinking that these so-called Eighty-one Difficulties were all in disarray, but that was normal; this is how a real world should develop.

Shi Ji asked, "Elder Brother, do we need to intervene?"

"Ever since the Western Tour Tribulation began, I have always stayed in the Heavenly Court and avoided treading the mortal world, not willing to meddle too much in the matter of the Westward Journey. After the Westward Journey, when the Demonic Calamity arises, it will be our time to act.

But now, Buddhism is targeting Old Niu, and we cannot remain indifferent. If they really capture Old Niu and return him to Yu Yu Heaven, it would be a slap in the face for our Master.

Shi Ji, go to the Judicial Temple, inform Zhao Gongming to gather the Law Enforcement Team, and have Kong Xuan and Golden Peng return from the Vermilion Bird Realm as well!"

"Yes, I will go now." Shi Ji turned and walked outside.

Bai Jin sat in the pavilion, tapping his fingers on the table, producing a "dong dong dong" sound. Even if he did not want to admit it, the reality was that Buddhism’s current mid-level strength surpassed that of the Heavenly Court.

Buddhism was indeed gaining momentum, with Qi Fortune soaring high. Within this epoch, the disciples of Buddhism, especially those former Direct Disciples from the Chan Sect, were advancing rapidly, showing astonishing talents.

Bai Jin waved his hand, and a myriad of fresh fruits manifested and danced in the garden, with vines and flowers swirling together to form a fruit basket, as numerous Divine Fruits entered the basket.

Holding the fruit basket, Bai Jin stepped forward and disappeared.
