Chapter 874: The Meeting of the Two Emperors
The youth wore the Buddhist Domain's kasaya and a string of sandalwood prayer beads in his hands. He smiled calmly and sauntered over to the voting booth.
He swiped his finger across the paper, and the words "Gu Li" appeared at the top of the ballot.
He tossed it into the ballot box, then took two steps back. He wore a warm, playful smile as he looked at Gu Zichen, then at Ye Zichen, who stood a short distance away.
"It's him."
Fuxi frowned. The surrounding immortals were all astonished by the monk's sudden appearance. When the North Pole Emperor heard Fuxi's murmur, he asked, "Brother Fuxi, do you know him?"
"Brother Fuxi, do you know him?"
In terms of closeness, the Buddhist Domain was the closest to the Heavenly Court, followed by the Underworld. The Immortal Region had practically no contact with the Buddhist Domain at all.
The North Pole Emperor had never seen this monk before, but judging from Fuxi's tone, he knew him.
"North Pole, take a good look at who he is."
Fuxi looked at the monk's back, but didn't respond to the North Pole Emperor. Before long, he looked in front of the Amitabha Buddha and frowned.
"Buddha, don't you think you owe me an explanation?"
His questioning tone caused the surrounding immortals' eyelids to twitch. In all of the Three Realms, no one dared speak to the Buddha like that.
Of course, that didn't count the one-track minded Yang Jian. He was a hothead who dared retort to anyone he saw.
But Fuxi was different. As the representative of the Immortal Region, he always acted with propriety and propriety. For him to suddenly say something like this clearly meant he had his reasons.
The Amitabha Buddha said nothing. Instead, the Flame Emperor observed the situation and spoke.
"Fuxi."
"Buddhist Ancestor, I've always respected the Buddhist Domain. That's why I allowed you to take him and that beast away. But now he's here again. Don't you owe me an explanation? "
Fuxi's expression gradually darkened. When the Buddha took Gu Li and the beast away, what did the Great Strength Bodhisattva say?
He chanted sutras for thirty years.
But how long had it been? In just a month, he had actually appeared here.
The surrounding immortals were dumbfounded, but the seated major powers' eyes flickered with indescribable glints after scrutinizing the young man.
They were all present at the scene at that time, and they all knew the true origins of this young man.
"Buddha."
Even Emperor Ziwei couldn't help but want an explanation from the Buddhist Ancestor.
"You must not blame the Buddha. You might not understand the Buddhist Domain." At this moment, the monk who had cast his vote turned around and smiled at Fuxi and the other immortals. "I'm not going to the Buddhist Region. I've always been curious as to why the people of the Buddhist Region are so strong. Only when you arrived at the Buddhist Domain did you realize that the speed there is a world of difference between their speed and yours. One day in the Buddhist Domain is one year in the Three Realms. I've been chanting sutras in the Buddhist Domain for thirty years, and thirty days have passed here. "
The immortals were shocked. Even the Heavenly Court, which had a close relationship with the Buddhist Realm, did not know the true situation of the Buddhist Realm.
There was a saying in the human world that a day in heaven was equivalent to a year on earth.
But now Gu Li was telling them that one day in the Buddhist Domain was one year in the Three Realms.
This …..
He glanced at the Buddhist Ancestors and Bodhisattvas, only to discover that they were all silent. Gu Li chuckled, his lips curling into a smile.
"Buddha, please don't blame me for divulging your Buddhist Domain's secrets."
Although he was bowing, anyone could see that he was fearless at this moment.
He really was fearless.
In the outside world, he might fear the Buddha, but here …. Everyone's spiritual power was sealed. Only the power of the stars could be used.
However, Gu Zichen had already sent Yang Jian, the only person capable of using the power of the stars. Who else could threaten him?
Furthermore, it wasn't like he couldn't use the power of the stars.
He was the one who'd caused the Emperor Star to appear!
"Gu Li!"
Ye Zichen stood a short distance from Gu Zichen and frowned. Although Gu Li had shaved his head and didn't look as good as before, Ye Zichen would still recognize him.
However, even if Gu Li was reduced to ashes, Ye Zichen would still be able to recognize their entanglement.
After roaring angrily, countless questions filled Ye Zichen's heart.
Why was he wearing a kasaya? Why was he a monk from the Buddhist Domain? And why was he here?
Could it be that Gu Zichen ….
Ye Zichen glanced at Gu Zichen, but Gu Li suddenly turned around and smiled.
"Brother Ye, I never would have guessed we'd meet again. How are you? Have you been well? "
"Hah …. I've been fine. But when I see you, I don't feel so good anymore. "
Ye Zichen's expression instantly darkened. He clenched his right hand into a fist, which glowed with faint light. Deep imperial might slowly emanated from his body. Far off in the distance, the North Star suddenly lit up with starlight.
A dragon throne suddenly appeared behind him. A man in imperial robes sat atop it, looking down at all creation with a condescending gaze.
Everything submitted to the might of an emperor.
When the other immortals sensed this aura, they couldn't help but want to submit. Some of the weaker immortals couldn't resist the urge to bend their knees.
The major powers inwardly resisted this imperial might as they stared at Ye Zichen in shock.
Just as the immortals were resisting, Gu Li's lips curled into a smile.
"So it's you?"
Back in the Buddhist Domain, he'd caused the Emperor Star to appear.
At first, he'd truly believed himself to be the ruler of heaven and earth. He'd thought he'd be the emperor to bring peace to the world. But after reading through the Buddhist Domain's ancient texts, he realized that he wasn't the only emperor chosen by the heavens.
He'd only inherited half of the North Star's imperial fate.
Ever since then, he'd wondered who the other half of the Emperor Star's fate was. No matter how he thought about it, Ye Zichen's image kept popping up in his mind.
Given the current situation, Ye Zichen really was the one who'd inherited the other half.
They were evenly matched.
Ever since the Modern Realm began, they'd stood on opposite sides. No matter when it came to scheming, he'd always had the upper hand. It was just that ….
Ye Zichen would always mysteriously show up to help him. In terms of scheming, Ye Zichen was no match for him at all.
The way Gu Li saw it, the only reason Ye Zichen was able to keep up with him was because he was lucky.
But now, he'd gone to great lengths to make the Emperor Star shine and become heaven's chosen, yet Ye Zichen still wanted a share?
Absolutely not!
Only he, Gu Li, could be the ruler of all of heaven and earth. Everyone else was nothing in front of him.
As for Ye Zichen, he was nothing but a clown!
Since Ye Zichen wanted a share of his fate, then ….
