Chapter 438: The Contest Between Xuanzang and Guanyin
After all the dust had settled, Guanyin sat on the edge of the bed, quite nervous, with a red bridal veil covering her head, her ten fingers tightly clenched, seemingly somewhat anxious.
Having cultivated Buddhism for many years and being a Great Luo Golden Immortal, this was the first time she had felt such nervousness and heart-fluttering.
Although she felt she had been sold out by the Queen Mother and Tianyu, for the sake of the grand plan of Buddhism, she could only play this grand drama to the end.
In truth, whether it was really for the sake of Buddhism, only Guanyin herself knew.
When they were in Buddhism, the relationship between the two was already unusual; they often sat and discussed the Tao, tasted tea, and exchanged pointers.
Outside the room, Xuanzang walked in slowly, step by step; in his eyes, Guanyin, sitting on the edge of the bed like a bride, was exceptionally moving.
Who could have imagined that this was actually the world-renowned Guanyin Bodhisattva of the Three Realms.
"Guanguan, you look very nervous," Xuanzang said softly, his words warm.
Guanyin did not answer, only silently clenching her fists; if Xuanzang were to force himself upon her, she would retaliate.
After all, all the gods and Buddhas of the heavens were watching right now.
One must absolutely not lose one's original heart!
"Rest assured, I will be good to you."
"Guanguan, do you know what love at first sight is!"
"Love at first sight—you really have the nerve to say that, Holy Monk."
Guanyin mocked from beneath the red bridal veil, seemingly not believing Xuanzang's nonsense.
But the next second, a look of shock appeared on Guanyin's pretty face.
It turned out that Xuanzang had already taken Guanyin's veil while she was off guard.
Instantly, under the candlelight, an exquisite and beautiful face came into view.
Even though Xuanzang's Taoist heart was firm, his heart still skipped a beat for 0.01 seconds.
Before he had descended the mountain, Xuanzang had always pestered the Old Monk to let him go down the mountain to find a woman to discuss ideals and realize the Tao in the mortal world.
But Xuanzang was not a casual person; those who could truly catch his eye and walk hand-in-hand with him were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
But the Guanyin Bodhisattva before him was different; her cultivation was profound, she saved the suffering and the distressed, and she was respected and worshipped by the people of the world.
Guanyin's face was a little flustered at this moment!
"Madam, the night is already deep, let us rest early," Xuanzang said.
He was not prepared to say any more flowery vows of love; a real man should have his spear strike like a Dragon, cut through the Gordian knot, and hit the target.
Xuanzang wanted to "hehe," but how could Guanyin agree? She was still in the midst of a tribulation.
And the Script was not like this either.
Xuanzang was also waiting to see how much longer this Guanyin would keep up the act.
As he finished speaking, Xuanzang reached out to embrace the beautiful person before him and steal a kiss.
Guanyin hurriedly moved her body away and said:
"Xuanzang, there is no rush for this matter; we can discuss some principles and understand each other better."
"Principles are all born from practice, Guanguan; the beautiful night is short, one must not waste this wonderful moonlight."
Xuanzang reached forward, wanting to grab Guanyin.
But Guanyin moved faster than a rabbit, even using a portion of her magic power, just to keep Xuanzang from succeeding.
This instead made Xuanzang even more excited!
"Guanguan, the more you dodge, the more excited I get, hehehe!" Xuanzang laughed.
"..."
Seeing Xuanzang's appearance, Guanyin wished she could restore her true form and slap this guy a few times.
But Guanyin soon calmed down, and she even took a pair of Golden Bracelets from her bosom, smiling reluctantly:
"Husband, this is a golden bracelet passed down by our ancestors; now that you are the only man in our family, I give it to you now. Wear it; consider it my token of affection."
"A golden bracelet?"
How did this thing look so familiar to Xuanzang? Wasn't this the Golden Fillet that was born from the same source as the Tight-Fillet Spell?
In the original story, it was this thing that subdued Red Boy.
So now, Guanyin actually wanted to use this thing to deal with him.
It was just that, did she think she could bind him with a Golden Fillet?
"Madam's kindness, I accept. However, if Madam calls me 'husband,' I will agree to wear the golden bracelet," Xuanzang said, taking the opportunity to set a condition.
"..."
Guanyin fell silent again, not knowing why a sense of shame welled up.
But in order to steady Xuanzang, she could only follow Xuanzang's wishes.
Otherwise, if she didn't use the Golden Fillet to bind Xuanzang, she didn't know what this lecherous Xuanzang would do during this long, long night.
"Hus... band..." Guanyin said in a small voice.
Xuanzang felt comfortable and very satisfied hearing this, but he still said:
"Too quiet, call me again."
Guanyin was furious and couldn't help but want to snap, but she still endured it and said:
"Husband!"
"What, louder," Xuanzang continued.
"Husband!"
"Once more!"
"Husband!"
"Change it, call me 'my lord,' otherwise I won't wear this bracelet!"
"!"
"!"
Fire was practically spitting from the eyes of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and she gritted her silver teeth tightly.
The Heavenly Court.
"Hahaha, it seems Guanyin Bodhisattva has met her match."
The Jade Emperor, who had just been cuckolded, felt inexplicably relieved now that he saw Xuanzang toying with Guanyin like this.
"This is too unprincipled, he's doing it on purpose, right?" Nezha couldn't help but complain.
"Ahem." Li Jing coughed twice.
But Nezha didn't even spare Li Jing a glance, continuing to do as he pleased.
Nezha still had a very good impression of Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Yang Jian's expression was gloomy and looked very unpleasant.
This Xuanzang is truly too shameless!
Originally, he had been somewhat optimistic about the development between Yang Chan and Xuanzang; after all, entrusting his sister to a Great Luo Golden Immortal for protection was absolutely safe.
But now, as the Journey to the West deepened, why did he feel more and more that Xuanzang was unreliable? He really had too many devious tricks up his sleeve.
"Guanyin Bodhisattva is also sacrificing herself for the sake of the Journey to the West calamity; this spirit is worthy of our admiration," Li Jing said.
"Indeed, truly admirable. If the Three Realms had more immortals like Guanyin, then the future of the Three Realms would surely be incomparably beautiful."
Han Zhongli and Tieguai Li of the Eight Immortals said in unison.
"But fortunately, it wasn't Wangmu Niangniang who went personally; otherwise, if she were toyed with by Xuanzang like this, the Heavenly Court would lose all face," said Lv Dongbin of the Eight Immortals.
Hearing this, the expressions of the immortals changed abruptly, and the atmosphere in the High Heaven Palace became tense.
The Jade Emperor's expression was also unpleasant; why did this Lv Dongbin have to bring up such a sore subject? As if saying it out loud now would give his Heavenly Court any face.
These Eight Immortals were still too young and lacked experience.
"Lv Dongbin, this deity feels there are a few too many demons and evil spirits in the Renjian lately. You have quite a bit of prestige in the Renjian, so I order you to reincarnate into the Renjian to slay demons and eliminate evil, and gain more experience for a time," the Jade Emperor said.
"..."
Lv Dongbin was stunned; wasn't this just being demoted to the mortal realm?
Although the immortals were shocked, they felt no sympathy.
Who told this guy to say whatever came to his mind.
But the Eight Immortals had a deep bond and shared both joys and sorrows.
Han Xiangzi had the closest relationship with Lv Dongbin and hurriedly said:
"Jade Emperor, the demons and evil spirits in the Renjian are already handled by sects like the Celestial Master Mansion and Shushan in the Renjian. We in the Heavenly Court cannot easily interfere in the affairs of the Renjian; it would be better not to let Lv Dongbin descend to the mortal realm."
The Jade Emperor remained calm and composed, deliberately saying: "What? This deity didn't hear clearly. Oh, Han Xiangzi, you mean you're afraid Lv Dongbin will be too lonely by himself, and you want to go with him to slay demons and subdue evil?"
"No, no... that's not..." Han Xiangzi hurriedly denied it.
"Granted!" The Jade Emperor waved his hand, his expression firm and beyond question.
"..." Han Xiangzi.
"Forget it, the Eight Immortals should stay together; go together then." Did the Jade Emperor change his mind again?
"..." The Eight Immortals.
