Chapter 129: Borrowing the pregnant bellies of the Buddhas to slap Tathagata across the face

Seeing that Wenshu had drunk the water from the Child-Aborting Spring and truly made that protruding belly disappear, the Buddhas were all stirred with excitement, eager to take out their own spirit treasures to trade with Tang An.

But Tang An had no intention of trading spirit treasures with them; instead, she took out the magic tool of the Water Virtue Star Lord and handed it to Yang Jian, telling him to enlarge the tool to the size of a well mouth where two people could draw water.

"Everyone, there is enough Child-Aborting Spring water here for twenty people."

"I will give it to you for free, but there is one condition."

"The condition is that you may only use your hands to draw it; you may not use Dharma power or magic treasures."

"If you find this difficult, then forget it."

"However, don't say I didn't warn you. I happen to be in a good mood right now, so I can give away this water for twenty people for free."

"But if you choose not to take it, or if it gets snatched away first, or if you don't follow the rules, don't blame me for kicking you out of the game."

"I don't know if you can wait until the next time I'm in a good mood, or if the fetuses in your bellies can wait."

"In the event that the fetuses are born early, then I, Tang An, will offer my congratulations to you all in advance."

The Buddhas looked at one another; the usual humility and superficial harmony seemed so pale and fragile at a time like this.

How could they not know that Tang An was toying with them? How could they not know that if they truly agreed, they would be losing their dignity?

The Buddhas looked at one another.

They knew everything, yet they were also on the verge of a clash, all wanting to snatch that mouthful of Child-Aborting Spring water.

Puxian, as one of the Four Great Bodhisattvas, was the first to move to draw the water. No one dared to snatch it from him, nor could they have snatched it.

Guanyin and Wenshu had already drunk the water, and Ksitigarbha had not appeared at that time, so the crisis facing the Four Great Bodhisattvas now seemed to be fully resolved.

Then, it was unclear which Arhat moved first, and the scene that followed evolved into the sight of mortals desperately fighting over treasure when greed took hold.

It was also like rabid dogs fighting for food; for the sake of that mouthful of Child-Aborting Spring water, they disregarded all decorum and image, engaging in a fierce brawl.

Because in their eyes, only by discarding their image at this moment could they permanently preserve their image.

Little did they know that this scene of them being so unpresentable was being filmed in its entirety by Tang An, who sat on a chair.

Watching the Buddhas of the sky being played like this by her, she truly felt an incomparable sense of satisfaction.

The Scorpion Spirit looked at Tang An, then looked at those Buddhas who were being played in circles by her.

She finally realized what kind of person she had provoked.

She had originally thought that Tang An was just a mortal, just a Scripture Seeker who loved to open up new territories.

Thinking of it now, she shivered violently.

She had seen the scene of the Buddhas losing their composure; even if Tang An could spare her life, could the Buddhas spare her?

Tang An seemed to sense the Scorpion Spirit's gaze and turned her head to look at her as well.

It could only be said that the Scorpion Spirit was unlucky; Tang An had originally planned to create the illusion that Wukong, Yang Jian, and Nezha were not by her side.

She wanted to see if she could lure out some members of the Buddhist sect who wanted to strike at her in secret, but she hadn't expected this Scorpion Spirit to be like a reckless youth, charging headlong into the trap.

As a result, she hadn't caught a Buddha, but had caught a scorpion that had stung the Buddha.

But since she had caught her, she was bound to be useful.

"In a moment, I'll give you a magic treasure. Do you want it?" As a Scorpion Spirit, being able to escape from Tathagata's hands meant she had some skills for saving her own life.

What Tang An valued was precisely her means and skills for escaping.

The Scorpion Spirit was flattered and surprised, "A magic treasure?"

Could she be such a good person? Not only not killing her, but instead gifting her a magic treasure?

"I... can I refuse?" The Scorpion Spirit had a premonition that the magic treasure would definitely be a hot potato.

Tang An signaled for her to look at Sun Wukong and Yang Jian in the air, as well as Nezha behind the Scorpion Spirit.

"What do you think?"

The Scorpion Spirit looked at Sun Wukong and the other two; they had brought the Buddhas of the sky here and played them like this. She feared that as a tiny Scorpion Spirit, she had absolutely nowhere to escape.

Or rather, the moment she even had the thought of escaping, the Killing God behind her, filled with dense killing intent, would definitely behead her without hesitation.

"I... fine, alright." The Scorpion Spirit sighed, accepting her fate; who told her to go and capture someone for no reason.

She had originally wanted to absorb the essence within the Destined One, and now, she had lost everything.

"Everyone."

Having resolved the issue of the Scorpion Spirit, Tang An looked at those Buddhas who had not obtained the Child-Aborting Spring water.

Most were those who hadn't been able to snatch any, or those who had been severely injured by their fellow disciples during the snatching.

"Those of you who didn't get the Child-Aborting Spring water, don't be anxious. Three days from now, at the Great Thunder Sound Temple on Lingshan, someone will naturally deliver the Child-Aborting Spring water."

This final blow from Tang An was to use the sight of the Buddhas standing there with their big bellies to slap Tathagata hard across the face.

She wanted Tathagata to know that even a mortal had plenty of ability and means to resist him.

If Tathagata still wanted to strike at her easily, he would have to weigh the consequences. Next time, who knew what even more earth-shattering and heaven-defying things she, Tang An, might do!

As for the person to deliver the Child-Aborting Spring water in three days, Tang An naturally already had a plan in mind.

The Buddhas, whether willingly or unwillingly, were all invited away from this place by Sun Wukong and the other two.

Now, the crisis of the Women's Kingdom could be considered to have been overcome.

Next, it was time to bid farewell to the Queen.

After all, the things Tang An was going to do next would make the members of the Buddhist sect lose face in the Three Realms, and make the Three Realms see their true colors.

If she remained within the Women's Kingdom, she feared it would cause the Women's Kingdom to be innocently implicated.

Women's Kingdom, Imperial Study.

Tang An in front, Sun Wukong, Yang Jian, and Nezha behind.

Jiuyue usually stayed outside with Xiaotian Quan, or waited elsewhere.

But today, she was rarely guarding Tang An's side, looking at Wu Zhao with displeasure, fearing that Wu Zhao might really keep Tang An.

"Princess sister, are you really leaving?"

Wu Zhao stood up anxiously and came before Tang An.

When Tang An arrived, she was still processing memorials.

Tang An nodded and said, "You and I both have things we need to struggle against. For this journey, Tang An has come to bid farewell."

"I ask that Your Majesty the Queen do not forget the appointment at the pavilion that day."

Wu Zhao immediately grasped Tang An's wrist, "Princess sister, can you really not reconsider?"

"I can promise you the Two Sages ruling the court; this is definitely not empty talk."

At this grasp, the eyes of Nezha and Jiuyue both turned into expressions of displeasure and vigilance.

Tang An knew that Wu Zhao wanted to prove to her that she could do it well. But the Two Sages ruling the court or whatever, was really not something she was interested in.

"I, Tang An, am used to being unscrupulous. If you were to let me do things that accumulate virtue in a proper manner, I would instead make a complete mess of it."

"Your Majesty the Queen, I believe you can create a prosperous nation. Regardless of the name of the country, I ask that you do not forget the two words: 'original intention'."

Having said this, Tang An bowed slightly. "Your Majesty the Queen, take care. Tang An bids farewell."

"Princess sister." Wu Zhao anxiously grabbed Tang An's arm again, "Do you really not understand my heart?"

"Look into my eyes; I don't believe your eyes are empty."

Hiss~ Why did this sentence sound so familiar?

Wait? Could this Queen be... ===== CHAPTER 130 =====
