Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#1870 - Buddha and Mother split

No one expected that the Lion Camel Ridge issue remained unresolved because of the Peacock King.

All the Buddhas were extremely shocked by this matter.

Faced with the inquiries from the Buddhas, Guanyin could only spread her hands, indicating that she could not comment.

There was nothing she could do, she couldn't guess what the Peacock King was thinking, and could only pin her hopes on the Buddha.

Everyone discussed it, but couldn't come to a conclusion, and finally could only look at Tathagata.

As the leader of Buddhism, Tathagata was also extremely surprised by this matter, and didn't know what had happened.

But this was an internal matter of Buddhism, so he said, "I will find out about this matter. Today's lecture ends here, you should retreat first, Guanyin stays."

Since Tathagata had spoken like this, the Buddhas had no choice but to retreat helplessly.

They also knew in their hearts that this kind of thing must be resolved privately. If it blew up, it would be a joke for other strong people to watch Buddhism.

When the Buddhas left, only Guanyin,谛听, and Tathagata remained in the Great Thunderclap Temple.

"Venerable Guanyin, what do you think?" Tathagata asked directly.

In his opinion, Guanyin must have guessed something, so she hesitated in public.

Guanyin did not hide anything, and told Tathagata about her conversation with 谛听 on the road and her own reasoning.

"It's that Chu Hao again?" Hearing these two words, Tathagata was furious.

In his opinion, Chu Hao was simply the nemesis of Mount Ling, and basically every time Mount Ling suffered a loss, it was inseparable from this guy.

"Reporting to Buddha, this matter is just speculation." Guanyin reminded.

In her opinion, it was absolutely impossible to use this matter to intensify the conflict with Chu Hao. If Chu Hao was unhappy, he would start targeting Mount Ling again, and her hard days would come again.

"That's right, Buddha, I think we still need to ask the Peacock King to clarify." 谛听 also followed.

So Tathagata planned to go there himself.

"I already know, you should keep an eye on Lion Camel Ridge, and don't let any more troubles happen. Everything will wait until I return." Tathagata instructed.

"Understood." Guanyin 谛听 nodded at the same time.

Afterwards, Tathagata turned into a golden light and disappeared in place.

In about ten minutes, Tathagata, shrouded in golden light, appeared in the sky above the colorful mountain and entered the Peacock King's dojo.

Inside the dojo, spiritual power surged, the Peacock King was bathed in green light, and behind him was a green screen like a sky, and a vast and ethereal power rushed towards him.

Tathagata descended from the sky, his expression calm in his golden light, sitting on a lotus platform, appearing in front of him.

"Tathagata, you're here." The Peacock King said indifferently.

Hearing this, a strange light flashed in Tathagata's eyes.

You know, usually the other party calls himself Buddha, but now he directly calls him by his title, obviously dissatisfied with himself.

"I haven't been to the Buddha Mother's dojo for a long time. Today, I am naturally here to reminisce about the old days." Tathagata said.

"Reminiscing about the old days is false, questioning is true." The Peacock King said coldly.

After Chu Hao planted the seed of doubt, and she personally saw Mount Ling's unscrupulous actions, the Peacock King's dissatisfaction with Mount Ling was finally ignited.

"Buddha Mother may have misunderstood. You and I are both Buddhist disciples, how can there be any questioning? It's just that I'm curious, curious why Buddha Mother wants to do this." Tathagata said in an official tone.

"It's nothing, since the Golden Winged Great Peng bird is my own brother, I naturally want to protect him." The Peacock King said indifferently.

"The recovery of the Great Peng bird is naturally a joy to everyone. But will the Buddha Mother also want to prevent Mount Ling from absorbing the heritage of Lion Camel Ridge? You must know that that is something of my Buddhism." Tathagata emphasized.

"Since it is a Buddhist thing, just leave it there, why move it to Mount Ling?" The Peacock King asked back.

"That's because the Buddha Mother doesn't know, that狱神 Chu Hao, and the demonic path of Maitreya Buddha are all coveting it, and even wanted to take it away before, but was blocked by me leading the army." At this point, Tathagata had to mention the frustrating battle that day.

The Peacock King had also heard about this great battle, after all, even Tathagata himself had personally dispatched.

But she still said: "Don't worry, from now on, I will secretly protect this place, and no one will take it away."

"Buddha Mother, it's better to move it to Mount Ling." Tathagata did not back down.

Just kidding, this time he suffered heavy losses in Mount Ling in the crusade against the demons. It is impossible to waste so much combat power. He must replenish the combat power of Mount Ling.

Unexpectedly, the Peacock King also said firmly: "I said I will protect it. If something happens, I will be responsible."

Seeing that the Peacock King's attitude was so tough, Tathagata, as the master of Buddhism, was also a little unhappy. He asked: "Did that Chu Hao say something to you?"

However, the Peacock King said indifferently: "How can I be bewitched by a few words? I just saw the truth."

"The truth? What truth?" Tathagata frowned.

The attitude of this usually gentle Peacock King has changed so much that Tathagata had to suspect that the other party had been taken over.

Hearing this, the Peacock King sneered: "Heh, the current Mount Ling is probably already your Mount Ling alone, Tathagata, not the Mount Ling of Buddhism."

As soon as this was said, it also meant that he was about to tear his face apart.

Tathagata immediately said in a deep voice: "Peacock King, do you know what you are saying? Could it be that you have also become enchanted?"

"Will the mere demons affect me? Today, I will tell you that you, Tathagata, cannot move Lion Camel Ridge." Now that things have come to this point, the Peacock King also said it directly.

"What if I want to move it?" Tathagata's voice turned cold, and the golden light on his body began to agitate uneasily. A powerful Buddha's might burst out from his body and hovered in the air.

Originally in the Peacock King's realm, he instantly broke free from his pressure constraints. The surging power rushed out of his body like a tide. Although it has not really erupted, it contains an unspeakable power.

As the master of Buddhism, Tathagata's strength is only stronger than the Peacock King.

Although he was swallowed into his stomach by the other party, it was only because he had just started cultivating. Now that he has been silent in Mount Ling for so long, his strength has already changed dramatically.

"You want to attack me?" The Peacock King's eyes sank, and a powerful aura erupted from his body. The aura rushed out from behind him and poured into the void. In an instant, the void trembled, and endless emerald green divine light illuminated the sky, exuding a terrifying power.

"You are betraying Buddhism." Tathagata said sternly.
