Chapter 116: You even scolded the Buddha? And to his face?
"Amituofo."
Rulai examined everything before him, his eyes as dark as ink, making it impossible for anyone to see through them at all.
"Stop." This sentence was shouted by Tang An.
Tang An climbed up from the ground. The Huntian Ling had also been shaken away from her hair in the previous instant, causing Tang An's hair to scatter.
She climbed up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corners of her mouth, and then used the Huntian Ling stained with bloodstains on her hands to tie up her hair.
Sun Wukong, Yang Jian, and Nezha, after being stopped by Tang An, appeared beside Tang An one after another.
It was also at that moment that Tang An saw worry in the eyes of Sun Wukong and Yang Jian, and guilt in Nezha's eyes.
"I'm fine." Tang An signaled them to rest assured and came to Nezha again.
She held Nezha's face and made his eyes look at her.
"Nezha, listen to me."
At this moment, Tang An's eyes were full of seriousness and firmness.
"Remember, you are not wrong."
"The wrong one is Li Jing, the wrong one is the Western Heaven, the wrong one is Rulai Fozu, the wrong one is your destiny that was set in a muddle!"
At this moment, the momentum that erupted from her, a tiny mortal, was very astonishing.
"Also, I was injured not because of you, but because Sakyamuni's face is too big, vainly trying to be that heaven, overriding the laws of heaven, and wanting to control everything in the world."
Afterward, Tang An looked at the Buddha again. "You, Sakyamuni, first there was the Exquisite Pagoda, then there was Yaoji's soul, and then there was the Five Fingers Mountain."
"You..."
Tang An only felt the pressure descend instantly, and she was about to be forced to kneel on the ground.
"Master!"
Yang Jian, Sun Wukong, and Nezha simultaneously transmitted immortal power to protect Tang An.
The four of them, master and disciples, were willing to bear the Buddha's pressure together.
"Pfft~"
Tang An vomited a mouthful of blood, her face turning pale.
"Hahahaha~"
She laughed, with tears in her laughter, having a sense of brokenness that made people unable to bear the heartache when they saw it.
"You dare to do it, but you don't dare to let people talk about it."
Rulai examined Tang An, not understanding where she, a mortal, got the courage to continue to challenge him under the pressure of being crushed to pieces.
Was it because of her master, Lishan Laomu?
But Lishan Laomu did not appear at this critical moment.
"Amituofo, Destined One, have you forgotten your duty?"
"Duty?" Tang An's sneer became even more intense.
"I remember I am a citizen of Huaxia, I remember I am a Princess of Great Tang. I remember I am the master of the three of them, I remember the promise I made to seek justice for my disciples!"
"As a citizen of Huaxia, as a Princess of Great Tang, I should open up territory for the country."
"As a master, I lead by example. The spine they cannot bend, I, as a master, even if that spine is broken, will never bend it down an inch!"
At that moment, Rulai even felt dazed, feeling that Tang An seemed to have straightened her spine, which was almost about to be crushed, for an instant under his huge pressure.
She seemed not afraid of pain, not afraid of death. The pressure he applied to Tang An could instead give her the courage and belief to resist under the pressure.
"Pah." Tang An spat a mouthful of blood. "You Buddhists are really greedy, and you don't know how to appreciate kindness."
"I..."
"Immeasurable, Daoist Master."
Lishan Laomu's voice appeared through the clouds.
Rulai Fozu heard this and bowed behind the clouds.
Tang An vomited another mouthful of blood, but the pressure on her body was also lifted the moment Lishan Laomu appeared.
Sun Wukong and Yang Jian reached out to support Tang An, while Nezha blocked in front of them.
His expression was cold and suffocating, and the killing intent almost condensed into substance. "Dead bald donkey, this is my business, come at me!"
Nezha's three-headed, six-armed form appeared again, and at the same time, his huge Dharma body appeared behind him.
Even if it was Rulai Fozu, so what? Even if he couldn't beat him, so what?
Whether he could beat him or not, whether he could rebel or not, he would only know after taking action!
He, Nezha, was never a coward since he was born!
"Come on!"
Since it has reached this point, so what if I kill the Buddha!
Just as Nezha's killing intent was about to control his consciousness, a warm hand grabbed Nezha's shoulder, causing the flames on his body to pause for an instant, and his eyes returned to clarity.
Tang An ate a leaf of the Ginseng Fruit Tree and stood out from behind Nezha, feeling that her body in the residual blood state had been fully resurrected.
"He won't really take action." Tang An wiped away the remaining blood stains on her lips.
"Sakyamuni, today's events, today's lesson, I, Tang An, have noted it down."
"Amituofo." Rulai Fozu still only chanted these four words.
Tang An sneered. "Since I have been forced to this point today, I will just let go."
"Either you kill me and destroy the Journey to the West Calamity."
"Or you make a deal with me. Since you want to protect him, then let's trade Li Jing's life."
"Don't think there is a third choice, don't think there will be other Destined Ones appearing."
"Since I, Tang An, have said it, I definitely have the certainty to destroy your Journey to the West Calamity. You can try and gamble with me."
"I, Tang An, can afford to lose; at most, it's just one life. Can you afford it? Can Lingshan, can Buddhism afford it?"
Rulai Fozu, the current head of all Buddhas.
No matter how you say it, he had not reached the level of being threatened by a mortal's words.
It was just that today's position seemed to be just Nezha wanting to take the pagoda and kill Li Jing, but in fact, he understood that Daoism had also produced karma because of Tang An and was mixed in it.
First there was Taishang Laojun, then there was Lishan Laomu.
It just so happened that she, a mortal, had the confidence to challenge the Buddha.
"Why should I make a deal with you?"
"Then why are you still staying here?" Tang An really dared to say anything. The gods of the Heavenly Court who heard this felt their legs trembling.
Rulai smiled faintly. "I was invited by the Jade Emperor to help out a little."
"Then the Jade Emperor invited you to seriously injure the Destined One? Or is it just that you simply want to show off your Western Heaven Buddha status in front of me?"
Whoa~ This sentence was said in such a way that even the Jade Emperor felt his scalp tingling.
How could a person be so brave to this extent? Is she really not afraid of death?
No, Tang An is the most afraid of death, the most cherishes her life, and is the most timid.
But the problem in front of her was that only by risking her life could she settle the karma on Nezha.
She made a promise as the cause, and today's practice is the result.
She is a pit, but she is definitely not a coward.
Rulai Fozu examined Tang An. "Destined One, what do you want?"
"What do I want? Good question." Tang An took a golden hoop out of her Universe Bag. "This thing, I believe the Buddha recognizes it better than anyone else."
"Oh? A golden hoop? What do you want to do?"
"I can let Nezha not kill Li Jing, and I can also return the Exquisite Pagoda. But! You must also let Li Jing wear this golden hoop!"
Just like back then, when Nezha was forced to recognize the pagoda as his father. This golden hoop is the second pagoda, but this time it is pressing on Li Jing.
Since the pagoda can press on Nezha, the golden hoop can press on Li Jing.
Then this matter returns to the origin; it is the grievance between the two of them, so let them solve it themselves.
Whoever is not ruthless enough, whoever cannot hold on, will only lose completely.
And based on Tang An's understanding of Nezha, the winner is already visible at the moment.
"Amituofo, you are not willing to put the golden hoop on the three of them, but you are willing to put it on the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King."
Tang An smiled. "Since Buddhism thinks the golden hoop is a good thing, and is trying its best to protect Li Jing's life, why do you disagree with this solution that kills two birds with one stone?"
"Or is it that you are afraid that after Li Jing is controlled by Nezha, you won't be able to master the total troops of the Heavenly Court?"
As soon as the voice fell, Tang An felt a deadly pressure coming straight at her.
"Old Rulai! Do you really think the three of us are invisible?"
Sun Wukong and Yang Jian also opened their Dharma bodies at the same time.
Yang Jian did not speak, but offered up the Kaishan Axe, directly splitting the Buddha's pressure with one axe, and the remaining power of the axe did not diminish, heading straight for Rulai.
Three people, three Dharma bodies, all protecting Tang An in front.
Making her look so small, yet so safe.
At the same time, the Jade Emperor, who had been silently paying attention to this behind the scenes, felt like thunder in his ears, and even more like a head-on blow!
He only just realized this problem: Li Jing might actually be a person of Buddhism. That is to say...
"Buddha." Without thinking more, the Jade Emperor appeared.
"Amituofo." Rulai Fozu nodded as a salute, and at the same time waved a golden light wall, dissolving Yang Jian's axe light.
"I suddenly feel that the Destined One's suggestion is good, what do you think?"
Oh ho! The reversal has come, the big reversal has come! ===== CHAPTER 117 =====
