Chapter 24: Having Fate with the Buddha's Gate! (Third Update)

  At this moment, Maitreya is racking his brains to save Yang Jian's siblings. As long as the Heavenly Edict is broken, the dignity of the Heavenly Court will also be lost, and from then on, the Buddhist sect will have more opportunities to plot against the Heavenly Court!

  After a long deliberation, Mile came up with a famous saying from the Western Sect: "Hmmm... I observe that Yang Jiao this child has affinity with our Western Sect and is destined to join us."

  Everyone: ……

  Nan Dou secretly wiped away a cold sweat, finally hearing the Western proverb that Emperor Jun often said. This feeling is so strange, it's like when I hadn't yet attained immortality and had constipation.

  Beidou, who was holding a long sword by his side, felt a chill run down his spine as the cold wind blew past him. He twitched the corner of his mouth and now had an overwhelming urge to make a sarcastic comment: "Hey, Mile, do you think Ben Xing Jun has any fate with your Western Paradise?"

  Maitreya's plump body shook, and then continued to shake violently, before he exclaimed with great joy: "The Star Lord must have a predestined affinity with me, the Western Sect! It's a huge affinity!" The Western Sect was impoverished and declining, and its disciples were almost all talented but poor. They had no choice but to rely on the savings left behind by Master Zhunti when he was still alive to get by. The Western Sect was already struggling financially, and with the current dominance of the Taoist sects, it would be extremely difficult for them to even come to the Eastern Sect to find someone with a predestined affinity!

  Beidou's long face directly collapsed: "Ape shit your head!"

  He didn't even bother to listen to Maitreya's explanation, and directly raised his sword to kill Maitreya. The Southern Dipper shook his head silently: "Amitabha, I also can't bear it, don't blame Maitreya, my friend!" This guy is shameless, and still a fake scholar...

  Xī Dòu and Zhōng Dòu, two brothers, exchanged a glance with each other.

  "Xī gē, nǐ shuō zěnme bàn?"

  "Zhōng dì, shā ba, chū le shìqing yǒu Dì jūn dǐngzhe, Xī fāng Shèngrén bù huì guài zán de."

  "Nǐ quèdìng?"

  "...""

  Translation:

  "What do you think we should do, Xi Ge?"

  "Kill him, younger brother. If anything happens, Emperor Jun will take the blame. The Western Sage won't blame us."

  "Are you sure?"

  "...""

  Maitreya was tragically besieged by the four great star lords, this guy is shameless to the extreme. Even if Prince Taizi usually calls himself treacherous and unscrupulous, he can't compare to these Western Buddhist monks!

  Maitreya never thought that these few star lords would react so greatly to his one sentence, nor did he know that everything was because of his Master's uncle, Zhuanti Daoren, who had no quality back then and would say "has fate with my Western side" whenever he saw a good treasure. When he saw a beautiful jade, he would also say: "should enter my door". As a result, the Eastern Immortal was particularly sensitive to these two famous sayings of the Western Sect, among which the Crown Prince's party was the most!

  "All of you star lords are slow to react, I'm just saying! Moreover, the four of you ganging up on me one doesn't seem quite right!" A flash of sword light pierced through his hemp robe, scaring Maitreya into a flurry of dodges. Geez, one against four, Mt. Duck Pear is so big after all!

  Unfortunately, Beidou and the others followed the Crown Prince's idea of ganging up on Wang Dao. They thought that one-on-one was unfair when someone was ill, unless absolutely necessary. They ignored Maitreya's words and continued to bully him with their collective strength. After all, Maitreya was just one person, and he didn't have any powerful magical artifacts on him, just a bowl and a bag. He was poor and destitute! Before long, the four of them beat him up so badly that his nose was blue and black, and his bald head was covered in bruises...

  "Boundless Heaven Venerable, several Star Lords are indeed too much..." A faint voice came from the horizon, and before Beidou and others could react, they were swept away by a large hand, accompanied by a gentle force, throwing them thousands of miles away.

  That hand grasped Maitreya and lifted him up, but was still not satisfied, also dragging Yang Jiao away, transforming into a faint shadow that slowly disappeared in the sky.

  When Beidou and others rushed back to Yangjia Village, only Yaoji who was trapped in the formation, the three brothers of the Yang family, and Maitreya were nowhere to be seen.

  "Hurry up and bring Yao Ji and Yang Jun back to Heaven!"

  The Five Emperors of the Heavenly Gate all heard a stern voice, which was the Jade Emperor of the Supreme Heaven. The North Dipper Star Lord spat out a mouthful of blood and reluctantly bound Yao Ji with a magical lock. At this time, the East Dipper Star Lord who went to Qingfeng Town to capture Yang Jun also returned, but he came back empty-handed with a gloomy face.

  "Run away?"

  "Caught by a sinister big hand... what's going on with you guys?"

  "On the rooftop..."

  Five people stared at each other in shock and dismay, a tragic discovery: only one of the offenders had the fairy maiden Zhaoyaoji in their hands, while all the others were nowhere to be found...

  Supreme Heaven's Court, Ling Xiao Treasure Hall.

  At this moment, Haotian's expression was complex as he looked at his sister kneeling in the temple, and he remained silent for a long time.

  Logically speaking, Yaoji has committed a heavenly taboo this time and her crime is unforgivable. Even if she has a noble status, she should be suppressed for ten thousand years. However, it's clear that someone is behind the scenes manipulating things. How can he bear to bury his only sister under the dark and endless mountain?

  What's most infuriating is that the mastermind behind the scenes is still those two saints. Although Haotian is the Heavenly Emperor, he can't even control the saints, and many of the saint's disciples are also worried. It's really infuriating! The pair of hands hidden under his dragon robe were clenched tightly together, with several blue veins bulging on top, revealing Haotian's rage, almost to the point of losing his rationality.

  "What should be done with Yao Ji?" The Queen Mother asked, seeing that Huang Tian was silent, she could only break the eerie silence.

  A group of immortals looked at me, I looked at them, and finally fell on the disheartened Yaoji fairy. They were entangled in how to report back, you know, this is the first person to violate after the heavenly decree was issued. No matter what the reason is, it's a serious crime, and not punishing her would be hard to calm people down!

  Finally, Zhang Zilong, who was standing in the first place, spoke up: "I report to the Emperor and Empress Dowager, although Auntie's actions were not of her own accord, she cannot be forgiven for being partial. In my opinion, suppressing Auntie under Mount Peach for ten thousand years as punishment is the most appropriate!"

  Saying so to their faces, but secretly transmitting a message to Huāng Tiān Yáo Chí: "Dad and mom, don't worry, this time the Western Sect is plotting against us, they want to see the Heavenly Court lose its virtue, and take advantage of it to meddle with my Eastern Heavenly Court. If we don't punish our aunt, I'm afraid the hearts of the heavenly gods will scatter. For now, let's just temporarily suppress our aunt at Peach Mountain, later I'll find a way to get her out!"

  At the same time, he also passed on a message to Yaoji: "My good aunt, you've made your nephew worried to death. Don't worry, my cousin Yang Jian will come and rescue you, just bear with it for now."

  Originally, because she had lost her husband and child, Yaoji's heart was as dead as ashes. But when she heard the words, her spirit shook violently. She didn't care if she would be suppressed or not, but just followed Zhang Zilong's words that Yang Jia and others were still alive, which was the news that made her heart shake greatly.

  Suddenly, she lifted her head, and her face, which had been expressionless all along, regained a hint of rosiness: "Brother, I am willing to stay under the Peach Mountain for ten thousand years, just please spare my children, they are your own nephews!" After saying this, she heavily knocked her head on the ground again, and when she lifted it up once more, there was already an obvious swelling on her forehead. Yaoji hadn't even used her magic!

  The Emperor's heart ached, but he could only force himself to be calm and waved his hand: "Bring people, take Yaoji down to the mortal world, suppress her under Mount Peach for ten thousand years, as a warning to the three realms!" But in his heart, he had made up his mind: The Western Sect, this Emperor is not finished with you!

  Watching his aunt being dragged away, Zhang Zilong's mind began to stir. Hmm, Yang Jian that kid was taken back by Master Yu Ding, and as for Yang Yan, the little girl is now on Ziwei Island, very safe. Ha! Western Sect, you don't think you can scheme against me, Tian Ting? Let's see how the Crown Prince will deal with you! The Great Tribulation of the Gods, you won't be able to stay out of this again!

  Looking at the old man burning with anger, the prince was very confident. This time, the Western Church would be forced to take action. Provoking Hu Tian would not end well for them, after all, his own father had the support of Hong Jun Dao Zu behind him!

  "Alright, this matter is settled, let the fairy families disperse!" With a cold sweep of his sleeve, the Jade Emperor turned and left Lingxiao Hall, followed closely by Yaochi.

  The immortals saw that the face of Haotian was not pleasant, and they did not dare to say more. They left Lingxiao Hall in twos and threes, but their hearts were not calm: What a cold and impartial, just and fair Haotian Jade Emperor!
