Chapter 1289

~3 min read 600 words

"Venerable Kasyapa, do not try to deceive this Marshal; this Marshal knows that the Heavenly Court and your Western Fomen had a falling out because of the Journey to the West plan."

"How could you possibly have reached an agreement with your Western Fomen now?"

"Besides, even if your Western Fomen reached an agreement with the Heavenly Court, what does it have to do with this Marshal?"

"This Marshal now has the support of 100,000 Heavenly River Water Navy troops, and my strength is already that of a Daluo Jinxian."

"Asking me to be a disciple to a mortal like Tang Sanzang—not to mention what I think, why don't you ask my underlings if they agree?"

As Marshal Tianpeng's voice fell,

the 100,000 Heavenly River Water Navy troops shouted in unison:

"We do not agree! We do not agree!"

Hearing Marshal Tianpeng's words and looking at the situation before him,

Venerable Kasyapa also felt a headache.

It wasn't that Venerable Kasyapa was afraid of Marshal Tianpeng combined with the 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers and Generals.

Venerable Kasyapa is a Quasi-Saint; even if the two were added together, they would not be his match.

It's just that the Heavenly Court has already reached an agreement with their Western Lingshan.

Facing the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, Venerable Kasyapa could not act recklessly.

Otherwise, having just reached an agreement with the Heavenly Court on the front foot, and then killing 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers and Generals on the back foot—

how would that make the Heavenly Court look?

What would the Heavenly Emperor Haotian think?

Therefore, it was precisely because of such considerations that Venerable Kasyapa had such a headache about how to resolve these 100,000 Heavenly River Water Navy troops.

Venerable Kasyapa looked at Marshal Tianpeng and asked again:

"Are you truly not going to accompany Tang Sanzang to the Western Heaven?"

Marshal Tianpeng really wanted to say, of course I want to.

Not to mention the feelings between Marshal Tianpeng and Sun Wukong and Tang Sanzang's past life, Jin Chanzi, just the exchange point rewards for the Journey to the West path

were enough to make Marshal Tianpeng unable to give up.

But now, Marshal Tianpeng knew even more clearly that he needed to finish acting out this scene.

So, facing Venerable Kasyapa's question, he could only speak against his own heart:

"That is natural; asking this Marshal to become a disciple of a mortal—impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Venerable Kasyapa did not know what Marshal Tianpeng was thinking, so after hearing Marshal Tianpeng's words, he also fell into a very tangled situation.

After all, it seemed that if Venerable Kasyapa was not prepared to use force to coerce him, he would definitely not be able to change Marshal Tianpeng's mind.

But once force was used, Venerable Kasyapa could not guarantee the lives of the 100,000 Heavenly River Water Navy troops.

After all, the difficulty of resolving 100,000 Heavenly River Water Navy troops and the difficulty of controlling them without injury were not on the same level at all.

So, in this situation, Venerable Kasyapa also did not know whether he should take action.

In the Heavenly Court, in the Lingxiao Palace.

Time returns to before.

Right now, the 100,000 Heavenly River Water Navy troops had just appeared in Gao Village.

And Marshal Tianpeng had not even consumed the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir.

Maitreya Buddha, at this moment, had arrived outside the South Heaven Gate, dusty and tired.

After all, Maitreya Buddha wanted to know what the Heavenly Court's attitude really was.

So Maitreya Buddha had exerted twelve levels of strength to rush on his journey.
