Chapter 1833: Cause and Effect May Be Late, But They Will Not Miss

~4 min read 631 words

At this moment, Sun Wukong, the White Dragon Horse, General Wujing, Fahai, Tang Seng, and Laojun all showed expressions of shock on their faces.

None of them had expected that the severe damage caused by the Samadhi True Fire could be healed instantly with just a light sprinkling of willow nectar.

Marshal Tianpeng slowly crawled up from the ground, knelt down, pressed his palms together, and said to Guanyin, "Thank you, Bodhisattva, for saving my life."

The Bodhisattva smiled slightly, her eyes filled with compassion.

Laojun raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead. Since Marshal Tianpeng's injuries were healed, it seemed the matter should be resolved.

At the same time, the immortals above the Nine Heavens saw this scene, and smiles appeared on everyone's faces. The Heavenly Emperor Haotian just stroked his beard calmly and said leisurely, "This is cause and effect."

Sun Wukong looked at the fully recovered Marshal Tianpeng and then at Bodhisattva Guanyin, a trace of gratitude involuntarily flowing in his eyes.

In the past, Guanyin had saved the suffering without ever asking for any return, and she had eventually become a Bodhisattva among the Buddhas of the Western Heaven who symbolized the salvation of suffering.

Sun Wukong had a question he wanted to ask Bodhisattva Guanyin, but in the end, he didn't ask it.

Actually, he wanted to ask whether Bodhisattva Guanyin had come this time under the Buddha's orders or if she had come of her own accord.

Taishang Laojun looked at Sun Wukong, smiled sheepishly, and said, "Great Sage, now that Marshal Tianpeng's injuries are healed, and I have personally punished my disciples, can this matter be let go?"

Sun Wukong moved his lips, looked at Fahai, and said, "Ask him."

Fahai smiled slightly and said, "Right and wrong, cause and effect, are all determined by heaven. I thought things would develop into an unpredictable situation, and if so, even if I, Fahai, were to be destroyed in body and spirit, I would demand justice!"

"But now it seems that cause and effect are within expectations. I thank Bodhisattva Guanyin again for her compassionate heart. I think this matter can be let go."

Fahai looked up at Bodhisattva Guanyin, pressed his palms together in a Buddhist salute, and said faintly.

Sun Wukong shrugged, appearing indifferent, and said, "For the rest of the journey west, I don't know what subordinates or mounts your immortal families will fail to keep under control. Anyway, since Master Fahai says let it go, then let it go."

"But if in the future, no matter which god's disciple wants to eat my master's flesh, if I can't hold back my hand and kill someone, don't blame me."

Although Sun Wukong's words were clearly still filled with resentment, they were understandable. Bodhisattva Guanyin smiled slightly, swept her eyes over the crowd below, and said, "Since that is the case, Laojun, you may take Jin Jiao back to the Heavenly Court."

Laojun thanked the Bodhisattva and walked toward Jin Jiao, beckoning him to follow him back.

Jin Jiao looked at Taishang Laojun timidly; he clearly hadn't recovered from the scene of Yin Jiao's tragic death.

"Let's go, disciple."

Taishang Laojun's face showed a smile, as if everything that had just happened hadn't occurred.

Jin Jiao involuntarily took two steps back. The bond between him and Yin Jiao could not be explained in a few words.

And Taishang Laojun, as a high immortal, had actually killed his own disciple in front of so many people.

Come to think of it, it was truly ridiculous. Yin Jiao's words still rang in his ears. Perhaps the lives of these lower immortals were truly like grass in the eyes of these high immortals and the Buddhas of the Western Heaven. ===== CHAPTER 1835 =====
