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

#1800 - Yes, but it costs extra money

The three parties ceased fighting but did not leave. At that moment, Yue Shan, the leader of the demon army from the Lion Camel Ridge's cave dwelling, entered and saw Chu Hao and Maitreya Buddha leisurely drinking tea.

"Warden Chu, you have great courage," Yue Shan said, looking at Chu Hao.

"You know me?" Chu Hao asked, looking at the burly man, feeling puzzled.

"I've heard the master mention you before. Seeing you today, you are indeed extraordinary," Yue Shan said, taking a seat beside them.

"Your master is Guyang, right?" Chu Hao asked.

"That's right. From what I see today, does Warden Chu intend to join forces with my master to deal with the Western Heaven?" Yue Shan asked.

After all, the battle between the Law Enforcement Hall and Mount Ling surprised and delighted Yue Shan.

However, Chu Hao shook his head and said, "Whether to fight the Western Heaven is not up to me. I'm just a pawn."

"Who would dare to use Warden Chu as a pawn?" Maitreya Buddha said with a smile.

Yue Shan calmly picked up the tea, took a sip, and asked, "What does Warden Chu plan to do?"

"It's not what I plan to do, but what the Western Heaven plans to do," Chu Hao said meaningfully.

As he spoke, he looked outside the cave and smiled, "Gentlemen, I have matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave first."

With that, he walked out of the cave. After he left, Yue Shan frowned and said, "Buddha of the Future, my master sent me to assist you. I hope you won't disappoint him."

"Rest assured, I have my plans. From now on, the demon army should not act rashly," Maitreya Buddha said with a smile.

Yue Shan didn't say anything more.

At this moment, outside the cave, Chu Hao saw Guanyin from the lower realm.

"A misunderstanding? Several of my men have died, and you're telling me it's a misunderstanding?" Chu Hao pretended to be angry.

Although the previous battle had infuriated Chu Hao, especially the ugly face of the Western Heaven, which disgusted him even more, he calmed down afterward. He felt that it was not worthwhile to have a life-and-death struggle with Mount Ling, lest he be targeted by the saints.

Therefore, Chu Hao planned to use this opportunity to blackmail the Western Heaven again, so he pretended to be still very angry.

Sure enough, Guanyin was quickly fooled. She said with a serious face, "Warden Chu Hao, the Western Heaven was indeed wrong in this matter, but in that situation, there was no other way."

"Hmph, don't just say these useless things. Bring out something substantial," Chu Hao said coldly.

"Buddha has already agreed to give you three million merits of divine water," Guanyin said.

"Too insincere," Chu Hao shook his head, pretending to leave.

Guanyin quickly stopped him, "Chu Hao, what else do you want? Why don't you go talk to Buddha yourself?"

Guanyin couldn't make the decision, nor did she want to. She just wanted to complete the task as soon as possible.

As an employee of Mount Ling, Guanyin knew the way of working well. She would slack off if she could, and hand over the task to the leader if she could. It was good enough for her to slack off.

After this period of various events, Guanyin was already mentally exhausted.

"Alright, I'll go ask that old man Tathagata. Lead the way, little Guanyin," Chu Hao nodded.

Guanyin immediately led Chu Hao to the Buddhas of the Western Heaven, where he saw Tathagata sitting on the lotus platform.

"Hey, Tathagata, you've changed quickly. You wanted to fight and kill just now, but now you've invited me here," Chu Hao said very impolitely as soon as he arrived, completely disregarding the Buddhas.

These words made the faces of the other Buddhas change slightly. They didn't expect Chu Hao to be so arrogant even here. Was he not afraid that they would suppress and kill him on the spot?

"Chu Hao, we are giving you a chance to repent. If you insist on doing so, don't blame us for being impolite," Baoyue Guangfo said in a low voice.

"Hmph, a defeated general, are you worthy to speak?" Chu Hao sneered.

Baoyue Guangfo was immediately furious and was about to attack, but was stopped by the Buddha next to him.

Seeing this, Tathagata said calmly, "Chu Hao, I agree to the request you made earlier."

"But I've changed my mind now. Three million merits of divine water is too little," Chu Hao immediately responded.

Hiss——

These words startled all the Buddhas.

Three million merits of divine water was no small number. These Buddhas and Bodhisattvas thought it was some kind of request, but now they were surprised to hear that it was such a large amount of merits of divine water.

The key was that this guy was now changing his mind.

"Chu Hao, don't push your luck," Baoyue Guangfo said angrily.

"Can you shut up? If you say another word, I'll leave," Chu Hao said disdainfully.

Baoyue Guangfo stared at Chu Hao, but could not attack, so he had to shut his mouth fiercely.

Seeing the other party being humiliated, Chu Hao showed a contemptuous smile, then looked at Tathagata, "What do you think, Tathagata? Will you accept?"

"What else do you want?" Tathagata asked.

"Not much, just ten more innate spiritual treasures," Chu Hao said his condition.

As soon as these words came out, the Buddhas were shocked again.

Ten innate spiritual treasures? He really dared to ask.

Even Tathagata's face changed slightly. These ten innate spiritual treasures were no small number.

You should know that before, in Zhu Zi Kingdom, Mount Ling had spent a lot of money for that one innate spiritual treasure, the Purple Gold Bell. Now Chu Hao asked for ten, how could they not be surprised?

"Too much," Tathagata said in a deep voice.

He originally planned to give the three million merits of divine water, but now he had added ten innate spiritual treasures, and Tathagata was a little unwilling.

"It's not too much. If you hadn't provoked me, three million would really be enough, but who told you to attack me?" The advantage was in Chu Hao's hands, so his words became much more unscrupulous, completely disregarding Tathagata's face.

These words were considered dead, and everything was to blame on Mount Ling for attacking Chu Hao.

If he could have foreseen the current ending, Tathagata would not have attacked Chu Hao no matter what.

Now he was stealing a chicken but losing rice, and he was also a little helpless.

"Think about it carefully, I'll wait for your good news, but it is said that the demons plan to launch an attack tomorrow. I don't know if my Law Enforcement Hall will help at that time," Chu Hao said, and directly turned into a stream of light and left.

And these last words were obviously threatening Tathagata, equivalent to a final notice.

After Chu Hao left, Baoyue Guangfo immediately said, "Buddha, you must not agree. That Chu Hao is obviously pushing his luck."

"Buddha, we have no way out of this matter," then another Buddha said.

The other Buddhas were also like this.

Although ten innate spiritual treasures were many, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas present were thinking more about resolving this disaster.

"Ancient Buddha, what do you think?" Buddha looked at Randeng and asked.

"If we can destroy the demonic path, it is naturally worth it," Randeng said slowly.
