Chapter 153: Bodhi Patriarch finally appears to protect his disciple

"Qingping Sword!!!"

Originally, Rulai's expression had just shown stability and a smile. But the moment Tang An shouted "Qingping Sword," his smile stiffened on his face.

Not only him, this sudden change, even the Jade Emperor and the gods of the Heavenly Court, had no psychological preparation and were startled by Tang An.

Who in the Three Realms didn't know the prestige of one of the Three Pure Ones, the Tongtian Jiaozhu.

The Taiqing Saint might not easily fight with you, and Yuanshi Tianzun wouldn't easily leave Yuxu Palace.

But Tongtian Jiaozhu he...

No!

Rulai looked up suddenly at Tang An, thoughts surging in his eyes.

How could the Qingping Sword be in Tang An's hands? That was the point!

What was her relationship with Tongtian Jiaozhu? How could she use the Qingping Sword?

And why, before this, had he not seen a single clue?

"Still thinking?"

Tang An flashed in front of Rulai, "With that head full of dirty water, you won't be able to think of anything even if you break your head."

"But it doesn't matter, if you can't break your head, I will break your head!"

She held the hilt of the Qingping Sword with both hands and raised it high.

When the Qingping Sword was raised, the Saint Sword Intent was unleashed, the cyan light broke through the dark clouds, as if the gate of heaven had opened, descending a giant sword of heaven and earth.

"Qingping Sword!"

Tang An shouted, her momentum soaring, even Nezha's Universe Silk was shaken away, flying back into Nezha's hand.

Her hair and dress danced with the sharp wind, her eyes full of cold killing intent, her divinity fully displayed.

"Slash!"

As the sword in Tang An's hand slashed down, the action looked slow, but it seemed to cut a cyan crack in space.

The giant sword in the sky followed the order and went straight for Rulai's head.

Rulai finally recovered from his surprise and disbelief; this strike was unavoidable.

But if he took it head-on, he might truly, as Tang An said, enter the cycle of reincarnation again!

"Seven Treasure Tree."

Zhunti gave up on Yang Jian and used the Seven Treasure Tree to block this strike for Rulai.

At the same time, Jieyin knew that if this great battle continued, the various Saints of Daoism would inevitably appear one after another. That would be a very unfavorable situation for Buddhism.

So, Jieyin looked at Sun Wukong with decisive intent.

He saw his Dharma body point, and the sky bloomed with lotus flowers, which was very beautiful.

But the more beautiful things were, the more dangerous they often were.

"Jieyin, you dare!"

Tang An was trapped by the Seven Treasure Tree at this moment, watching the lotus flowers in the sky, in the blink of an eye, already in front of Sun Wukong.

Everyone held their breath for a moment, staring at this scene, but were powerless to rush up to save him.

Sun Wukong's Law of Heaven and Earth was beaten back to his original form. Watching the lotus flowers about to pierce Sun Wukong's body, there was no fear in his eyes, only the annoyance of not having stepped on Lingshan.

"Wukong~"

Suddenly, an old voice came from the horizon, and it seemed to be right in front of him.

The lotus flowers in the sky unleashed by Jieyin stopped without any warning just as they were about to pierce Sun Wukong's body.

"Mas, Master?"

Sun Wukong was tearful in an instant, as if he were just a well-behaved disciple in the year he studied art, looking at his master with that respectful and admiring look.

But because of today's scene, his eyes were filled with infinite emotion in an instant.

An old man appeared beside Sun Wukong, wearing a white Daoist robe, with a slight smile on his face, full of kindness. It was exactly the same as when Sun Wukong first saw him when he apprenticed at Lingtai Fangcun Mountain.

"Master!"

The Great Sage Equal to Heaven, who had always stood tall, was now like a little monkey who had experienced wind and frost but was very aggrieved, kneeling before his master, his eyes misty with tears.

The Bodhi Patriarch had a doting look on his face as he helped Sun Wukong up.

"Master is here."

Since he was here, he was naturally here to support his good disciple.

Seeing the Bodhi Patriarch gently tap his whisk, as if bringing invisible force, he gently tapped the lotus flowers in the sky.

Yet the lotus flowers in the sky shattered like broken glass, from one crack spreading to infinite cracks, and then all shattered completely.

"Jieyin? Saint?"

The Bodhi Patriarch stroked his beard, "Did my disciple hurt you? Or did he destroy your Lingshan?"

Jieyin recovered from his astonishment, and facing the Bodhi Patriarch's questioning, he didn't know how to answer for a while.

He thought the Bodhi Patriarch had already abandoned Sun Wukong, so even if the Destined One risked her life to go to Lingtai Mountain, she failed to invite the Bodhi Patriarch out of the mountain.

But he didn't expect that at such a critical moment, the Bodhi Patriarch would suddenly appear, without giving anyone any psychological preparation.

But not only Jieyin, even Zhunti, at this moment, only trapped Tang An and dared not act rashly, and hurriedly bowed to the Bodhi Patriarch.

Everyone realized that whether it was the gods of Daoism and the Heavenly Court, or the Buddhas of Lingshan, they all bowed and saluted.

"We, pay our respects to the Bodhi Patriarch."

The Bodhi Patriarch smiled slightly, signaling everyone not to be too polite.

Then he turned to look at Tang An, and then at the Qingping Sword in Tang An's hand.

"I see that although you are a mortal, you have the courage to shake heaven and earth."

"Although you are timid and greedy by nature, you plan step by step for those who travel with you, and you can even risk your life."

"On the journey West, you are worthy of being called Master by Wukong."

Tang An was also seeing the Bodhi Patriarch in person for the first time, and being praised by such a big shot, she was naturally honored, overjoyed, and her vanity exploded.

However...

Vanity could explode later, and honor could be felt later. But the current situation couldn't be left alone.

"So, are we still going to fight?"

Bodhi was asked this by Tang An, and his slight smile carried some understanding.

He turned to ask the two Saints, Jieyin and Zhunti, "What do you two think?"

"Amituofo." Zhunti and Jieyin bowed one after another.

Fight? Fight a hammer!

How can this be fought?!

"Since the Patriarch has come forward, we will no longer interfere in this cause and effect."

The two looked at each other, knowing that they definitely couldn't win if they fought today.

Fortunately, the Bodhi Patriarch did not like to get involved in cause and effect, nor was he a murderous person, so Rulai's life should be able to be saved today.

Having said this, the two turned and left, not daring to hesitate in the slightest.

The Bodhi Patriarch did not intend to pursue it, but looked at Rulai Fozu.

"Today, the cause and effect between my disciple and your Lingshan is not finished, are you still going to participate?"

The implication was: my disciple hasn't finished what he should do, are you going to stop him?

Rulai Fozu bowed his head, "Amituofo, since it is cause and effect, then it is timely to end this fruit today."

His statement was also very clear.

And he was afraid that he hadn't expressed it clearly, so he took a step back.

Little did he know that this step he took was right into Tang An's line of sight.

"I understand the Buddha's words."

"I, Tang An, represent the Buddha and translate his plain words for everyone."

"Ending cause and effect means: Wukong, Yang Jian, you can smash it however you want, anyway, if Lingshan is destroyed, they have plenty of Saints, and they can just rebuild Lingshan."

"As long as the cause and effect can be ended, the Buddha has no objection."

"Right, Buddha?"

Tang An weighed the Qingping Sword in her hand, the bad smile on her face not covered in the slightest.

Others had fought enough, but she hadn't fought enough yet.
