Chapter 347

Haotian muttered to himself, and deep in his eyes, he could not help but raise a trace of wariness toward Luo Fu.

As a peak Quasi-Saint, Haotian considered himself not much stronger than Tathagata.

Since Luo Fu could suppress Tathagata, he could of course also suppress him.

Although he is the noble Lord of the Heavenly Court, his identity can be described as very honorable.

But Tathagata had two Saints standing behind him, and the Saints personally took action to block it. Luo Fu still chose to forcefully suppress Tathagata.

Haotian had no Saint behind him; once he offended Luo Fu, it was hard to guarantee that Luo Fu would not take action to suppress him.

"This matter has nothing to do with my Heavenly Court; you subjects do not need to discuss it anymore. The five-fingered mountain just fell to the Earth Immortal World, causing the Three Realms to tremble, which has no small impact on the order of the Three Realms. You subjects, return to your positions and maintain the order of heaven and earth well."

The Jade Emperor suppressed the shock in his heart and ordered the immortals and gods in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.

"By the way, order it down: my Heavenly Court's gods, if anyone encounters a young man named Daoist Luo Fu, must treat him with courtesy."

After pondering for a while, the Jade Emperor added a sentence in a plain tone.

"Daoist Luo Fu?"

Hearing the Jade Emperor's order, the immortals and gods felt a move in their hearts, and they could not help but start to silently recite Luo Fu's name.

The immortals and gods who could stand in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall were almost none of them stupid.

The hidden meaning in the Jade Emperor's words, the immortals and gods could still guess one or two.

"Writing to the West, instead of writing to Tathagata Buddha, it seems Tathagata Buddha really has had an accident!"

"Daoist Luo Fu? When did such a person appear in the Three Realms? Could this Daoist Luo Fu be related to the five-fingered mountain that fell from the Heaven Beyond Heaven?"

"What kind of sacred person is this Daoist Luo Fu, to actually be able to make Tathagata Buddha suffer?"

Various thoughts flashed through the minds of the immortals and gods.

"Yes! We obey!"

Although there were many doubts in their hearts, all the immortals and gods did not ask again, but bowed slightly to the Jade Emperor and responded in unison.

Because of the Jade Emperor's words just now, the immortals and gods who had many miscellaneous thoughts did not continue to stay in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, but one after another took orders and left the Lingxiao Treasure Hall in unison.

Sigh!

The Jade Emperor, who saw the reaction of the immortals and gods, could not help but sigh in his heart.

Just now, he actually did not want to mention Luo Fu.

In the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, to mention Luo Fu so openly, and also to let the immortals and gods treat him with courtesy when they encounter him.

It undoubtedly lost some of the Heavenly Court's face.

Nominally, the Heavenly Court is the ruler of the Three Realms, and he, the Jade Emperor, is the Lord of the Three Realms.

Since he is the ruler of the Three Realms, then the people of the Three Realms should all bow down to the Heavenly Court.

And his words just now were showing weakness to Luo Fu, which is undoubtedly a blow to the majesty of the Heavenly Court.

Of course, regarding this matter, the Jade Emperor actually did not care too much.

Showing weakness! Giving in!

Such things, has the Heavenly Court done few?

After the Investiture of the Gods war, the current Heavenly Court can be described as having many talents on the surface.

Just in terms of the number of powerhouses, on the surface, the Heavenly Court is definitely one of the best.

Even if it cannot compare to the currently powerful Buddhist Sect, it is not much different.

After all, the Investiture of the Gods war was nominally for the Heavenly Court to invest gods.

On the Investiture of the Gods list, there are not a few powerhouses from the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect.

But one knows one's own affairs.

Because of the Investiture of the Gods list, there are indeed many powerhouses from the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect serving in the Heavenly Court now.

With their souls on the Investiture of the Gods list, in principle, their lives were held in the hands of the Heavenly Court.

But these Chan Sect and Jie Sect disciples all had Saints standing behind them.

The two Saints, Yuanshi and Tongtian, were only grounded by Dao Ancestor Hongjun and were not suppressed, nor did they die.

Holding the Investiture of the Gods list, nominally, one can indeed kill the immortals and gods on the list, but it is only nominally.

If the Jade Emperor really dared to kill a certain Chan Sect or Jie Sect disciple, I fear that as soon as he finished moving his hand, the anger of the two Saints would descend upon him.

In the past, the Jade Emperor also relied on himself being the Dao Ancestor's boy, hitting a dog requires looking at the owner; even Saints did not dare to easily take action against him.

But in the Investiture of the Gods war, the Jade Emperor saw the crazy side of the Saints, and also saw his own status in Dao Ancestor Hongjun's heart.

If the Saints were really determined to take action against him, as long as they did not kill him directly, the Dao Ancestor would not intervene.

With a backer behind them, the powerhouses of the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect on the Investiture of the Gods list were not very respectful of the Investiture of the Gods list.

And they had no respect for the Jade Emperor either.

After their souls were on the Investiture of the Gods list, they could almost be considered puppets, restricted everywhere, and even their cultivation was difficult to advance.

Under such circumstances, the powerhouses on the list almost all became desireless.

Simply put, they started to rot.

They were indeed serving in the Heavenly Court, but they did not put in effort, listening to orders but not announcements.

Besides the powerhouses of the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect, the rest on the Investiture of the Gods list were basically crooked melons and split dates, and not one could be a facade.

If it were not for the Jade Emperor, after the Investiture of the Gods, learning from the pain and spending great effort to collect some confidants, the current Heavenly Court would be difficult to maintain operation.

And after the Investiture of the Gods Great Calamity, the Profound Sect suffered heavy losses, and the great beings of the Profound Sect almost all retired, making the Buddhist Sect the only one dominant.

The Buddhist Sect is not as easy to get along with as the Profound Sect.

The Profound Sect, influenced by Taishang Laozi, all had some temperament of quiet inaction and did not care much about power.

When the Profound Sect was prosperous, it almost did not intervene in the affairs of the Heavenly Court.

The Buddhist Sect, by comparison, was much greedier.

Since the decline of the Profound Sect, the tentacles of the Buddhist Sect have almost reached every part of the Three Realms.

This is also why some immortals and gods with little knowledge would feel that the Tathagata Buddhist Sect is the number one powerhouse in the Three Realms.

The current Buddhist Sect's influence has expanded extremely fiercely.

On one hand, it has to coordinate the complex relationships within the Heavenly Court, and on the other hand, it has to face the greedy erosion of the Buddhist Sect, and it also has to maintain the order of the Three Realms.

The Jade Emperor has lived very difficultly these years, which can be described as walking on thin ice, step by step.

If it were not for the situation being too difficult and the Buddhist Sect being too powerful, how could the Jade Emperor agree to shamelessly act with Sun Wukong, just to promote the eastward spread of the Journey to the West Buddhist Sect.

"This world, after all, still depends on strength; only with strength can one have confidence when speaking!"

Remembering the scene of Luo Fu suppressing Tathagata without hesitation and shaking the Seven-Treasured Wonderful Tree, the Jade Emperor could not help but sigh.

Strength is the confidence.

Luo Fu's strength is strong enough; even in front of Zhunti, he forcefully suppressed the Tathagata Buddhist Sect.

Saint Zhunti did not tear his face and take action against Luo Fu.

"If I had such strength, would Zhunti and Jieyin still be manipulating me without any scruples now?"

"The Great Calamity is about to start; it seems it is another eventful autumn. Let's see how the Buddhist Sect will respond next. I wonder if this Daoist Luo Fu can completely suppress the Buddhist Sect's arrogance."

The Jade Emperor muttered a few words to himself, then closed his eyes and withdrew his consciousness.

Although curious about Daoist Luo Fu's background, the Jade Emperor did not intend to intervene in this matter.

Maintaining the Heavenly Court in its current situation had already consumed most of his energy, and he really had no extra energy to pay attention to other things.

What's more, the matter between Luo Fu and the Buddhist Sect was not something he could intervene in.

Of course, regarding Luo Fu finding trouble for the Buddhist Sect, the Jade Emperor was still happy to see it happen.

Since the Buddhist Sect became the only one dominant, he had suffered quite a bit of anger from the Buddhist Sect.

The Heaven Beyond Heaven.

The Eight Views Palace.

"A world in the palm? Such profound Great Dao comprehension; Daoist Luo Fu, I haven't heard of him; could it be some old antique using a pseudonym?"

Taishang's eyelids were half-drooped, and he began to silently calculate in his heart.

Zhunti personally took action to operate the Seven-Treasured Wonderful Tree, and Luo Fu held nine worlds in his hand and detonated them simultaneously; the commotion caused by the two fighting was not small.
