The Buddha's Probing
He led Lady Providence to a secret location. This was the Nine-tailed Fox Clan's holy land. Many nine-tailed foxes only came here once in their entire lives.
Outsiders absolutely couldn't enter this place, but for Su Yan's sake, she couldn't care less.
"Senior, if you have no other orders, I'll be on my way."
In order to avoid arousing suspicion, she bowed slightly to Lady Providence and prepared to leave.
Lady Providence waved her right hand, and Ye Zichen and Su Yan's broken bodies landed safely on a jade bed. Then she turned to Su Liu 'er, who was about to leave.
"Come here."
Su Liu 'er didn't hesitate and walked over.
"Senior, what do you need me to do?"
"You're so delicate. If you lose an arm, it'll affect your beauty too much."
Lady Providence pursed her lips into a smile, then placed her hands on Su Liu 'er's severed arm.
Light flickered between her fingers, and a new arm grew out of her severed arm.
"Many thanks, Senior."
Su Liu 'er bowed slightly. Regrowing an arm was indeed a joyous occasion, but it wasn't that important. Right now, she was most nervous about Su Yan, who lay on the jade bed.
"It was nothing."
Lady Providence nodded calmly. Her gaze grew solemn as she looked at the two people on the bed.
"All of you, wait outside. I'll come see you in a moment."
Once everyone left, Lady Providence furrowed her brows, then placed her fingers on Ye Zichen and Su Yan's foreheads.
"Xiao Ting, that damned old dog!"
When she saw their condition, she couldn't help but roar inwardly.
The heavenly lightning just now wasn't something a god could resist. Even a saint might be gravely injured or even killed by it.
Fortunately, Su Yan had blocked one for Ye Zichen. Otherwise, Ye Zichen's soul would've been shattered to pieces.
"It seems I can't shake off this karma."
With that, Lady Providence let out a long sigh. Suddenly, the secret area lit up with spiritual light.
On the back mountain.
The Buddha sat atop his lotus throne, his brows deeply furrowed. Given his status, he should've long since concealed his emotions, but now his expression was terrifyingly gloomy.
Drip.
As he knelt on the ground, Gu Li couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. When the Buddha said those words, he felt as if he'd fallen into an abyss. His entire body trembled and trembled …..
"Buddhist Ancestor, I was just a little kid. I was blinded by lard before. I won't dare to do it again. "
Bang, bang, bang.
Gu Li repeatedly kowtowed. His forehead was stained with blood and the dust on the ground, making him look unbearably filthy.
As long as the Buddha didn't speak, he wouldn't stop kowtowing.
He was afraid of death, and he didn't want to die!
"Buddha, Buddha is merciful. Please spare this lowly one's life. Please save me!"
The crowd of immortals outside watched this scene coldly. If not for the fact that the Ancestral Buddha had said that he was going to settle everything, these immortals might have already rushed up to tear him apart. There would have been no time for him to say all this.
This was especially true for Fuxi. His gaze was fixed on the Zombie Progenitor.
The ancient ferocious beast Denglong had brought harm to the human world. At that time, he and Goddess Nvywa had let it go on account of their old friendship. Unexpectedly, after ten thousand years, it still didn't repent. Just like that, they couldn't let this ferocious beast go.
"Amitabha."
The Buddha's gaze was unfathomable. He stared silently at the kneeling Gu Li for a long time.
After a while, he sighed, shook his head, then sat down on his lotus throne and headed for the Western Heavens.
"The Buddha is ….."
The surrounding immortals watched in confusion as the Buddha left. Didn't he just say he was going to condemn Gu Li? Why did he leave?
The North Pole Emperor hesitated for a moment, then landed beside the Great Strength Bodhisattva.
"Bodhisattva."
"Great Emperor."
They both bowed.
"What did the Buddha leave behind? Why did he sigh and return to the Western Heavens? What about those villains?" The North Pole Emperor didn't understand.
"Amitabha," said the Great Strength Bodhisattva. Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva said, "Now that Lord Buddha has returned to the Western Paradise, this poor monk will naturally leave with Lord Buddha. Everyone, we shall meet again in the future. "
An auspicious cloud drifted down as the Great Strength Bodhisattva departed.
Gu Li knelt on the ground, his thoughts racing. He naturally saw the Buddha depart. However, he didn't act rashly. A nobody like him couldn't fathom the Buddha's thoughts.
Perhaps the Buddha's departure was just to test him?
Gu Li knelt on the ground and didn't move in the slightest. Meanwhile, the surrounding immortals were utterly confused.
What on earth was he trying to do?
Was he just going to leave those villains here and leave without saying a word?
"Could it be that the Buddha wants us to deal with them on our own?" The North Pole Emperor frowned inexplicably, then turned to Ksitigarbha. "Bodhisattva, you're a Buddhist. Do you think ….."
"Amitabha."
To everyone's surprise, Ksitigarbha merely chanted a few lines of Buddhist scripture, then left as well.
…..
The immortals were dumbfounded.
This group of old monks was dumbfounded.
Were they all just pretending to be mysterious and unfathomable?
Fortunately, the North Pole Emperor was now the supreme ruler of the Heavenly Court. If it were the Jade Emperor from back then, he might've just fallen out with them and done things his way.
Who cares if you're the Buddha or not!
"Brother Fuxi, what do you think ….."
It wasn't appropriate for the North Pole Emperor to focus on such a dire situation, so he leaned over to listen to Fuxi's thoughts.
"The Buddha's departure left a mystery in our hearts. We can't say for sure what he's thinking, but these villains must be eliminated. But these few villains must be eliminated. According to my opinion … "
Fuxi raised his saber to his neck. When the North Pole Emperor saw this, he couldn't help but nod.
"That's all we can do for now."
"What are they talking about?"
Gu Li knelt on the ground with his back to them, so he couldn't see their movements. All he could hear was their conversation.
In truth, he was still confused. Was the Buddha testing him or was he really going to hand him over to these immortals to deal with? He couldn't decide.
Boom!
At this moment, a chill that made his heart palpitate appeared on his back.
Endure!
Gu Li forcefully suppressed the urge to dodge. Right now, he was taking a gamble. He was betting that the Buddha would appear just as the attack was about to land.
Furthermore, even if the Buddha didn't appear, this sort of attack wouldn't harm him in the slightest.
When the time came, he'd confirm that the Buddha wasn't testing him. Then he could move freely. Even though he was injured, these immortals couldn't do anything to him.
Closer …..
Closer and closer.
The purple mist was about to land on his back, but at that moment …..
"Amitabha."
Golden light suddenly appeared in the void, and the purple light was also forcibly erased by this golden light.
"The Buddha!"
When they saw this, the North Pole Emperor and Fuxi couldn't help but cry out in alarm. Hadn't that expert just returned to the Western Paradise? Why was he here now?
Gu Li's heart finally calmed down. He couldn't help but smile.
