Everyone was curious as to what the Blue Night Bodhisattva was trying to do. They looked around at the disciples of the Blue Night Bodhisattva and realized that they were also baffled. It was as if they did not understand what the Blue Night Bodhisattva was trying to do. Right at this moment, Blue Night suddenly soared into the sky once more and headed towards a certain direction at a moderate speed.
At this moment, everyone who had opened their transcendence eyes suddenly had a look of realization on their faces. They saw that in the sky above them, more than ten women had appeared. Their dresses were fluttering in the wind, and they had pearls and pearls hanging from their necks. They looked like goddesses. Everyone understood that they should be guests.
However, what kind of guest would cause the Blue Night Bodhisattva to personally come out to welcome him in such an emergency? Upon closer inspection, Miao Yi realized that they were a group of Buddhist holy maidens at the Iridescent Lotus realm. However, their leader was a Golden Lotus cultivator. Meanwhile, after the Blue Night Bodhisattva went up to greet the Golden Lotus cultivator, he actually bowed respectfully to the Golden Lotus cultivator. It was obvious that he was treating the Golden Lotus cultivator as a superior.
Some of Blue Night's disciples also soared into the sky and greeted them respectfully.
Many clicked their tongues in wonder, trying to guess who that Golden Lotus cultivator was.
"May I know who that person is? How could Bodhisattva be so respectful to him?" Someone asked the monk at the side.
Some of the monks started to shake their heads, while others put their palms together and said, "So it's Layman Pu Lan who has personally come, excellent, excellent."
Everyone was even more puzzled when they heard this. In other words, why would a Buddhist cultivator who had not been conferred a title, and who was still a Buddhist monk, receive such treatment from the Blue Night Bodhisattva?
Even Miao Yi, who was standing not too far away, tilted his head to look at the monk. He listened intently, wanting to find out what was going on.
Someone asked, "Who is this Buddhist monk Pu Lan? Why is Bodhisattva treating him with such courtesy?"
The monk replied, "Pu Lan is a disciple that the Mirror Flower Buddha made an exception to accept. He is also the youngest disciple of the Mirror Flower Buddha."
With that said, everyone was suddenly enlightened. It turned out that in terms of seniority, Layperson Pu Lan was Blue Night Bodhisattva's Martial Uncle. Furthermore, Mirror Flower Buddha had made an exception to accept him as a disciple. It was clear that Mirror Flower Buddha valued him greatly. No wonder Blue Night Bodhisattva was so respectful towards him.
Looking at how the Blue Night Bodhisattva rushed out to welcome him at the last minute, there was a high chance that the Blue Night Bodhisattva didn't know that Layman Pu Lan was coming and had received the news at the last minute. I wonder if he's here to celebrate the birthday of the Blue Night Bodhisattva.
In the sky, a group of people descended from the sky. They did not enter through the gate, but directly landed outside the Hall of Great Strength. Accompanied by the Blue Night Bodhisattva, they entered the hall.
Someone outside asked, "I wonder what is the background of this Layman Pu Lan? How could he be accepted as the last disciple of Mirror Flower Buddha?"
The monk shook his head. "I don't know."
Whispers immediately broke out at the scene, as they tried to find out what was going on with the monks around them. Transcendence energy fluctuations could be felt everywhere, and Miao Yi was no exception. He was also releasing his magic power to probe. However, it was unknown whether they really didn't know, or if they were pretending not to know, but none of the monks present could say anything.
Looking around, Miao Yi wasn't very interested in this House Practitioner Pu Lan at first. After all, it had nothing to do with him. Who would've thought that he would inadvertently notice Huangfu Yan's calm expression among the Huangfu Clan members? He stood out from the crowd of people who were looking around for information. Miao Yi couldn't help but feel a little moved. Could it be that Huangfu Yan knew of this House Practitioner Pu Lan's background?
Thinking about it, it was not impossible. The Great Ensemble was well-informed and might know something.
Thinking of this. Miao Yi noticed that there were transcendence energy fluctuations all over the place, which he could use as a disguise. He lowered one of his sleeves and took out a Star Bell. 'Contact Huangfu Jun? Y。
'Huangfu Jun, who's standing with his family?' Y was stunned for a moment, and secretly glanced at Miao Yi. It was clear that Miao Yi was the one who was transmitting to him, but Miao Yi didn't look in his direction. Instead, he deliberately looked to the other side.
'How could he let Huangfu Jun have the virtue of being a prostitute and setting up a chastity?' Y was angry and amused at the same time. He also lowered one of his sleeves and took out the Star Bell, asking, 'What's the matter?'
Miao Yi replied, 'Everyone seems very curious.' 'What's the background of this House Practitioner Pu Lan?'
'Huangfu Jun?' Y: 'This is the first time I've heard of it. How would I know?'
Miao Yi: 'Ask your grandfather. He might know something.'
'Huangfu Jun?' Y was stunned, and turned to look at Huangfu Yan. With Miao Yi's reminder, it seemed to be true. However, she couldn't ask her grandfather directly, so she quietly moved to her mother and transmitted her voice to ask.
Huangfu Duanrong gave Miao Yi a sidelong glance, then turned to Huangfu Yan's side. She seemed to be transmitting her voice to ask something.
Soon. 'Huangfu Jun?' There was a reply from Y's side. 'Thousands of years ago, Mirroring Flower Buddha suddenly made an exception and accepted a final disciple, attracting the attention of the Great Ensemble. The higher-ups also had the intention to investigate, but through some clues, they found out that this Lay Practitioner Pu Lan was not from the Realm of Bliss, but was from the Celestial Court's Non-Phase Planet. When Mirroring Flower Buddha made an exception and accepted her as a final disciple, she was already a married woman. It seemed that she also had a son who was recommended by Mirroring Flower Buddha to cultivate in Mount Mystical. The Buddhist sects intentionally blocked the news, so the Great Ensemble didn't know much. That was all they could find.
The news didn't seem to be classified, but the three words' Non-Phase Planet 'still made Miao Yi's heart skip a beat. It was a bit of a coincidence. In the Great World, he could also be considered to have come from the Non-Phase Planet. He didn't expect to meet someone from the same hometown. However, it was thousands of years ago. He didn't know if he was still on the Non-Phase Planet at that time.
Miao Yi didn't know if Huangfu Yan knew that much, or if he knew something and refused to say it, or if he knew that he wouldn't be able to find out much even if he asked, which was why he had such a calm expression. In any case, Miao Yi felt that he had asked for nothing.
At that moment, Miao Cun suddenly walked through the crowd and came to Miao Yi's side. He cupped his fists and said, "Lay Practitioner Pu Lan was informed that an esteemed guest has arrived. He said that he must not be neglectful. Would Head Commander Niu please come to the Hall of Great Strength to meet him?"
Miao Yi's lips curled into a sneer. He thought to himself, 'How could I be considered an esteemed guest? I'm just the son-in-law of the Kou Heavenly King.'
Of course, he had to be tactful. After all, he was here representing the Kou family. If he didn't understand etiquette, it would only damage the Kou family's reputation and make them unhappy. Naturally, he had to comply.
As he walked up the steps of the Hall of Great Strength, Miao Yi realized that he wasn't the only esteemed guest. Aside from the group of monks, there was another group of esteemed guests dressed in layman's clothing. Coincidentally, Miao Yi more or less knew all of them.
The Four Heavenly Kings of the Heavenly Court and the Twelve Marshals had all sent their representatives. Naturally, Miao Yi was one of them. It seemed that Lay Practitioner Pu Lan would only receive those sent by the Marshals. This wasn't a big deal. What made Miao Yi secretly amused was that the Xiahou family and the Pavilion of Good Faith had also sent their representatives over. The Xiahou family sent Xiahou Longcheng's younger brother, Xiahou Hucheng, while the Pavilion of Good Faith sent Cao Fengchi. They were all acquaintances.
Miao Yi guessed that the Blue Night Temple was just pretending to be ignorant. Who knew that the Xiahou family and the Pavilion of Good Faith were actually one and the same. They actually pretended to send out two groups of people. Rich people could be willful. They didn't even care about sending out a generous gift.
Meanwhile, Xiahou Hucheng seemed to have a good impression of Miao Yi. He even smiled and nodded at Miao Yi. He didn't care about the living, but the dead. No matter what, this Head Commander Niu was his Big Brother's only friend when he was still alive.
But if he knew that the mastermind behind his Big Brother's death was Miao Yi, who knew what he would think.
Cao Fengchi seemed to have a good attitude towards Miao Yi as well. She also smiled and nodded. Miao Yi was already aware of this. When he came into contact with the Pavilion of Good Faith, Miao Yi realized that this woman's attitude towards him wasn't bad.
Regardless of whether they liked Miao Yi or not, the people from the Kou family's faction who came representing the three Regional Marshals stood behind Miao Yi as a sign of respect. There was no helping it. This was the son-in-law of the Kou Heavenly King, and he was here representing the Kou family. If they didn't give him face, it would be the same as not giving the Kou family face. They couldn't afford to offend him.
As for the others, they didn't have a good impression of Miao Yi. Especially Ying Yang, the third generation of the Ying family. He was Ying Hui's cousin, who had died at Miao Yi's hands in the Imperial Garden. Of course, the relationship between the Ying family and Miao Yi wasn't just because of Ying Hui's death. Those who were in the know knew that it was a long story, so Ying Yang's gaze towards Miao Yi carried an undisguised chill.
Miao Yi couldn't be bothered with him. He knew that even if he lowered his head, the other party wouldn't necessarily be merciful.
The group met up on the steps. With the Four Heavenly Kings and the Xiahou family's representative in the lead, they were all invited into the Hall of Great Strength.
Inside the hall, the monks stood on both sides. The Blue Night Bodhisattva also got down from her lotus throne. She didn't dare to put on airs in front of Layperson Pu Lan, so she stood beside him.
And this Layperson Pu Lan was indeed extraordinarily beautiful. Her long hair draped over her shoulders, her face was dignified, and her forehead was full and clean. Her bright eyes were like twinkling stars, shining brilliantly. She wore a layperson's white dress, and a jade jewel hung down to her ample bosom. Her entire being exuded a dignified elegance amidst her tranquility. With a single glance, one could feel an otherworldly aura assaulting one's senses.
Miao Yi didn't know if it was just his imagination, but he felt as if this Layperson Pu Lan had been staring at him the moment he entered. It was as if the Layperson Pu Lan had been staring at him from head to toe, making him want to raise his hand and touch his face to see if there was anything dirty.
This really made him wonder if this Layperson Pu Lan knew him. Could it be that he had really met him on Planet Non-Phase? But after sorting through his thoughts, he realized that if he had really met this person before, this person's appearance was quite extraordinary. There was no way he wouldn't have any impression of him. He definitely didn't know him. Otherwise, he would at least have a vague impression of him.
As he walked closer, he wanted to confirm something from the Layperson Pu Lan's eyes. However, he realized that Layperson Pu Lan's gaze had already shifted away from him, and was now looking at the others. This made Miao Yi doubt himself again. He felt that he might have been overthinking things.
No matter what Layperson Pu Lan's background was, he was still just a layperson. Hence, everyone still cupped their fists or pressed their palms together towards the Blue Night Bodhisattva. "Bodhisattva!"
The Blue Night Bodhisattva nodded slightly with a smile. He raised his hand and introduced Layperson Pu Lan to the side, "This is my Senior Uncle, Layperson Pu Lan. He heard that an esteemed guest had arrived, so he specially came to meet with everyone, so as to not neglect our esteemed guest."
Xiahou Hucheng was the first to cup his fists in greeting. "Xiahou Hucheng greets the Layperson Pu Lan."
Following that, the Ying family, who were in charge of the Heavenly Court's North, South, East, and West Armies, came down one by one. Ying Yang cupped his fists and said, "Ying Yang greets the Layperson Pu Lan."
After that, it was Miao Yi's turn. "Niu Youde greets the Layperson Pu Lan." As he said this, he could clearly feel Layperson Pu Lan's gaze locking with him. However, his gaze quickly drifted over to Cao Fengchi.
"Pavilion of Faith and Justice's Cao Fengchi greets the Layperson Pu Lan."
After Cao Fengchi finished greeting him, it was time for the guests sent by the various Marshals to greet him as well.
Layperson Pu Lan pressed his palms together and returned their greetings. His gaze finally fell on Miao Yi's face. He smiled and said, "You are King Kou's beloved son-in-law, Niu Youde?"
Miao Yi felt helpless inside. No matter who it was, they would have to add the words' King Kou's beloved son-in-law 'to their names. He cupped his fists again and said, "I am. May I know what the Layperson Pu Lan wants to teach me?"
