Chapter 719 The Great Tribulation of Journey to the West is brought forward!
"The God of Justice."
"Justice God!"
Chizuru didn't know who they were, but she nodded in acknowledgment.
Many female immortals greeted Qianhe.
Yunxiao laughed and said, "You really are popular with female immortals."
"LOL, really?"
...........................
Soon, they arrived at the Lingxiao Palace.
This magnificent hall is adorned with a golden dragon coiled on its roof, its claws outstretched, seemingly poised to take flight at any moment.
On either side of the temple gate, two huge stone pillars are covered with exquisite patterns, such as dragons and phoenixes bringing good fortune and qilin offering auspicious omens. These patterns are so lifelike that they seem to be alive.
At this moment, the Lingxiao Palace was empty, with only the Jade Emperor sitting quietly on the dragon throne.
Well, to be precise, it is Haotian who has arrived now.
Of course, he can also be called the Jade Emperor, because both of these titles actually refer to him.
He simply created a clone.
It was actually him!
Qianhe and Yunxiao stepped into the Lingxiao Palace and bowed respectfully to Emperor Haotian.
"Please take a seat," Haotian said calmly.
At this moment, Tiannu immediately moved a chair to the area under the dragon throne.
Yunxiao and Qianhe bowed respectfully and then sat down in the chairs.
"Your Majesty, why did you call me?" Chizuru was the first to speak, asking curiously.
"God of Justice, I have summoned you here today to discuss a matter," the Jade Emperor said slowly, his voice deep and majestic.
Qianhe raised her head, her gaze firm: "Your Majesty, please speak freely. Qianhe will do her utmost."
The Jade Emperor's eyes were deep as he said, "The bald monks of Buddhism came to me, saying they want to start the Buddhist Great Journey to the West Tribulation ahead of schedule."
Upon hearing this, Chizuru frowned.
He knew about the great calamity in Journey to the West, but why bring it forward?
He couldn't understand.
..........................
"Your Majesty, this great calamity has come ahead of schedule, and there must be some unforeseen circumstances. I wonder what requirements Buddhism has?" Qianhe asked.
He didn't think the Buddhist sect had just come to say hello.
The Jade Emperor snorted coldly: "They demanded that the Heavenly Court cooperate by sending some demons down to the mortal realm to wreak havoc, in order to facilitate the journey to the West. There was even someone who sent down a mortal named Liu Bei to bestow the title of Imperial Brother upon the descended Jin Chan!"
Yunxiao listened from the side without saying a word or interrupting.
Upon hearing this, Qianhe's expression darkened: "This Buddhist sect is incredibly domineering, actually wanting the Heavenly Court to pave the way for their great calamity. And even wanting mortals to pave the way for them? They're really putting on airs!"
“Yes, they are shameless.” Haotian nodded.
Qianhe pondered for a moment and then asked, "Your Majesty, what is your opinion on this Journey to the West Calamity?"
The Jade Emperor nodded, then sighed: "Alas, I don't know how to view this. This time, the Dao Ancestor has no objections and doesn't interfere, which is why I summoned you to discuss this?"
Because of the arrival of Qianhe, the two Western Saints were anxious to start the Journey to the West Tribulation ahead of schedule.
Of course, it was the two saints who proposed it to Hongjun.
Hongjun didn't care; he figured it was fine to let them repay the Heavenly Dao's merits ahead of time!
Chizuru's eyes flickered, but she calmly asked, "What are they, the West? Do they expect us to cooperate?"
"If they don't cooperate, ignore them! Let them figure out their own westward journey! They want Buddhism to flourish? No way!" Qianhe said angrily at the end.
He thought of those bald monks in later generations!
Chizuru had seen everything they had done.
Therefore, he absolutely would not allow Buddhism to flourish!
............................
"I don't want to cooperate with them either!" Haotian nodded in agreement.
"As much courage as Your Majesty possesses, so too will I devise a plan!" Qianhe said, looking at Haotian.
Upon hearing this, the Jade Emperor's eyes flashed with delight. "Excellent! With your words, I am relieved. So, in your opinion, how should we respond?"
Qianhe's lips curled into a confident smile. "Your Majesty, we can hold back for now and observe the Buddhist sect's next move. At the same time, we should secretly strengthen the Heavenly Court's defenses to prevent the Buddhist sect from causing trouble in secret."
Regarding their sending demons to wreak havoc on the mortal realm, we can spread the word so those demons know the Heavenly Court's stance and dare not easily obey the Buddhist order. As for bestowing the title of Imperial Brother upon Jin Chan, let's pretend we didn't hear about it. If the Buddhist sect dares to take any further action, dares to touch my mortal brother Liu Bei, then I'm sorry, we'll fight!
Chizuru said coldly.
It's clear that compromise is impossible!
He must let the Buddhist community know!
Buddhism cannot flourish!
