Although he had heard about Ye Qingpeng from Daoist Ancestor Xuan Qing, Tai Ting still chose to return to the capital of Song to meet Bodhisattva Ananda.
"I will go with you," Daoist Ancestor Xuan Qing said.
Chang 'an already knew that he was in Thunder Valley.
Zhang Dongyun and the rest naturally did not need to help him hide the news.
The Song Dynasty and the other forces in the Eastern Cang Heaven would know sooner or later.
The Kui Cow Clan wanted to hide a trump card, and Daoist Ancestor Xuan Qing's wish to keep a low profile was destined to fail.
Since that was the case, they might as well attend the meeting together.
The Eastern Cang Heaven was originally divided into Shi Daoru and Wu Liudao. However, due to the sudden change in the Southeastern Cang Heaven, the situation might have changed unexpectedly.
Tai Ting had no objection to this and went with Daoist Ancestor Xuan Qing.
The man and the demon went to the capital of Song and met Emperor Zhao Kuangming again.
Zhao Kuangming looked at Daoist Ancestor Xuan Qing deeply and said, "I've heard a lot about you. It's my honor to be your guest in the Eastern Cang Heaven."
"You're too kind, Emperor Song. I just happened to be here," Daoist Ancestor Xuan Qing said.
At Emperor Song's place, Tai Ting and Daoist Ancestor Xuan Qing saw two other monks besides the Blood Unicorn Demon Lord.
One of them looked like a young man, but his wisdom was complete. He sat on a golden lotus.
It was Maha Bodhisattva Ananda.
The other monk, who was tall and thin like a withered tree, was wearing a kasaya. The long kasaya hung down and covered the lotus flower he was sitting on.
The thin monk put his palms together and greeted Daoist Ancestor Xuan Qing, "Long time no see, Daoist Ancestor Xuan Qing. You're as healthy as ever."
"Yes, long time no see," Daoist Ancestor Xuan Qing returned the greeting, "Today, I'm joining forces with Qianshu Buddha. Please take care of me."
The thin monk came from the Southeastern Cang Heaven just like him. He was the leader of the Southeastern Cang Heaven's Buddhist Sect, Qianshu Buddha.
There were no Buddhas in the Eastern Cang Heaven, only Cihang and Ananda.
However, the Buddhist Sect had always been united. When Bodhisattva Ananda went out to find help, Qianshu Buddha and Wisdom Bodhisattva of Light came.
However, it was also not long before they were prepared to leave that Ye Qingpeng's secret was revealed in a great battle in the southeastern Yang Heaven by chance.
This caused the situation between the two universes to become even more complicated.
"Dao Ancestor Xuan Qing is here. We have something to ask Dao Ancestor Xuan Qing."
Bodhisattva Ananda said, "His Majesty Emperor Xia in the southeastern Yangtian doesn't want to stop the war with the Qi Dynasty …"
Dao Ancestor Xuan Qing nodded slightly. "That's in line with his personality."
In the southeastern Yang Heaven, the Daoist Holy Land of the Nine Dragons Temple, which was under the control of Dao Ancestor Xuan Qing, had always been on bad terms with the Heavenly Lake Academy and the Grand Xia Dynasty.
Currently, the Great Xia Divine Dynasty and the Tianhu Academy were suppressing the Great Qi Divine Dynasty. Daoist Ancestor Xuan Qing had traveled far away, and the Nine Dragons Temple was sealed. However, everyone was actually concerned about whether or not Daoist Ancestor Xuan Qing would support the Great Qi Divine Dynasty in order to keep the Great Xia Divine Dynasty and the Tianhu Academy in check.
Now, it was basically confirmed that the Daqi Divine Dynasty and the Chang 'an City of the Eastern Cang Heaven were enemies.
In that case, would the enemy of my enemy become my friend?
As for why Emperor Xia didn't intend to stop the war even though he knew that the Daqi Divine Dynasty had another enemy, Chang 'an City, it was due to the dignity and confidence of a Martial Dao Human Sovereign.
After all, his opponent was only the Ancient Emperor, not a Human Sovereign of the same realm.
Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming felt the same way.
However, in front of Dao Ancestor Xuan Qing and Qianshu Buddha from the southeastern Yangtian, he didn't say anything. He just waited and watched.
"Since Emperor Xia has such a plan, we can't force it."
Dao Ancestor Xuan Qing said, "As for letting Chang 'an City fight with the Qi Dynasty in the southeastern Yangtian, I think that there are too many variables. It might not be what the Tianhu Academy wants."
When everyone heard this, they fell silent.
At this moment, Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming's eyes flashed slightly, as if he was alarmed by something.
After a while, his expression returned to normal.
The gazes of the others converged on him.
Slowly, Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming said, "As Daoist Xuan Qing expected, Chang 'an City didn't accept the Tianhu Academy's good intentions."
His gaze swept across everyone in front of him.
"Li Shulou and Chu Yaoguang are still wreaking havoc in the Song Dynasty.
It seems that Chang 'an City still views the Song Dynasty as an enemy before Qi Dynasty's Ye Qingpeng. "
Slowly, Song Emperor stood up as he spoke.
As he stood up, this seemingly desolate world began to tremble.
"If that's the case, then we'll just clean up our own businesses."
Song Emperor said, "I'm not a reckless person. The City Lord of Chang 'an is mysterious and unfathomable. He's not an ordinary enemy.
However, since Chang 'an City has issued a challenge, the Song Dynasty will definitely accept it.
However, I'd like to ask for everyone's help to clear out this poisonous sore that suddenly appeared in the eastern Yangtian. "
Ananda Bodhisattva was the first to express his stance. "Chang 'an took Senior Brother Manjushri's sarira and refused to return it. They even killed many Buddhist disciples. It's our duty to retrieve the sarira."
Qianshu Buddha didn't say anything.
When they reached the eastern Yangtian, he would leave all the decisions to Ananda Bodhisattva.
He didn't object to Ananda Bodhisattva's decision.
"My previous promise is still valid."
Blood Unicorn Demon Venerable, who had been silent all this while, spoke now, expressing his support for Song Emperor.
Although he was more inclined to let Chang 'an and the Great Qi Dynasty both suffer great losses, since Chang' an City didn't accept the challenge, they could only do it themselves.
Tai Ting, the leader of the Kui Cow Clan, asked, "About Doushi Academy and Taiyi Sect …"
Ananda Bodhisattva said, "We'll ask Saint Lu to hold the fort for us."
In the three-way alliance, excluding Qianshu Buddha, the only seventeenth-realm expert was Saint Lu, the dean of Doushi Academy.
However, it was basically impossible for Saint Lu to join forces with Blood Unicorn Demon Venerable.
With Blood Unicorn Demon Venerable's exact whereabouts, they should be thankful that Saint Lu didn't come knocking on their door first.
Song Emperor and Taiyi Sect weren't on good terms. Now that Taiyi Sect's sect master, Dao Ancestor Hong Qing, wasn't around, it reduced the conflict between the two sides.
Previously, in order to rescue Taiyi Sect, Saint Lu and Song Emperor Zhao Kuangxing were also quite unhappy.
It wasn't that Buddhism wanted to betray Confucianism and Daoism, but it was a rare opportunity to join forces with demons, demons, and martial artists. This battle would gather more experts, so Ananda Bodhisattva naturally had to mediate.
"Alright."
Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming's expression was calm. He turned to Blood Unicorn Demon Venerable and said, "Fellow Daoist, please hold the fort for us."
Although the alliance was temporary, he didn't want Saint Lu to take advantage of them and Chang 'an City in the end.
This was exactly what Blood Unicorn Demon Venerable wanted. He was the one who was most wary of the alliance. "Brother Zhao, please rest assured."
Ananda Bodhisattva didn't object to this arrangement.
He added, "There's a young friend who's recuperating in my Pure Land. His injuries have already healed, and he's been wanting to go out to seek revenge on Benefactor Chu and Benefactor Ao in Chang 'an.
Previously, I've been persuading him. Now, maybe we can invite him to come along. "
"Fu Tianshu, the disciple of Big Dipper?"
Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming nodded slightly, "Bodhisattva, please arrange it."
Although Fu Tianshu had appeared briefly, the Great Song Dynasty had been trying to collect information about Chang 'an.
Regarding Fu Tianshu's fellow disciples, Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming also remembered their names.
It was because although Fu Tianshu was only at the 16th realm, his cultivation strength was comparable to a Great Bodhisattva like Ananda.
Both Wei Wan and Tian Gong were no match for the Ancient Emperor who was also at the 16th realm.
Song Emperor would naturally pay attention to such a martial artist.
However, he wasn't afraid of him because of this.
However, since he had a grudge against Chang 'an City, he could naturally come in handy now.
Dao Ancestor Xuan Qing said, "As a fellow Daoist, I would like to discuss Dao with Fellow Daoist Li."
He looked at Tai Ting, the leader of Kui Niu tribe. Tai Ting nodded slightly, indicating that he would pay attention to other movements in the Eastern Firmament.
Song Emperor said, "Of course. Thank you, Daoist."
"You flatter me." Dao Ancestor Xuan Qing bowed and disappeared from this world.
The crowd dispersed as well.
Bodhisattva Ananda returned to his own pure land.
The Buddhist disciples in the lotus pond of the pure land put their palms together. Suddenly, all the golden lotuses bloomed.
After Bodhisattva Ananda returned the gesture, he crossed the lotus pond and came to a Bodhi forest.
Two men sat under the tree.
One of them sat silently, but his strong presence in the pure land was not inferior to Bodhisattva Ananda.
It was the head of the Big Dipper, Fu Tianshu.
"Bodhisattva, is it time to return to the pure land?" Fu Tianshu looked at Bodhisattva Ananda and asked calmly.
The other party put his palms together. "Benefactor Fu, please accompany me."
Fu Tianshu nodded and stood up.
The other person beside him also stood up.
One of this person's arms was intact, but the other arm was only about half. It seemed to be broken at the elbow.
It was Fu Tianshu's only Junior Brother who was still by his side, Yuan Tianji.
Yuan Tianji's arm was cut off at the shoulder by Su Po. During this period of time, he had been recuperating in the pure land of Ananda and received full treatment from the Buddhist sect.
He had already cultivated the body of a Martial God. His Qi and blood were strong, and his flesh and blood had the ability to regenerate.
However, Su Po's sword style was pure and terrifying, which made it difficult for his broken arm to regenerate quickly.
With the help of the Buddhist sect, he only managed to regenerate half of his arm after such a long time. His sleeve below the elbow was still empty.
"Third Junior Brother, you stay here. I'll go with Bodhisattva Ananda alone," Fu Tianshu said.
Yuan Tianji nodded gloomily. "I understand. I'm still missing an arm and my strength has been greatly reduced."
Fu Tianshu said, "This is only one of the reasons. The second is that if I die, you have to practice martial arts well and strive to defeat Chu Yaoguang in the future … Although I don't think she's Chu Yaoguang anymore, since she said so herself, then let her be."
Yuan Tianji was shocked. "… Senior Brother!"
Fu Tianshu's expression did not change. "The strong wins and the weak loses. Haven't we already understood the principle that weapons have no eyes?
You don't have to think about revenge for us. It will only make you lose your cool.
Hatred is unnecessary. What's important is that we become stronger. "
Yuan Tianji's expression became as calm as Fu Tianshu. "Don't worry, Senior Brother. I understand … However, I still have to say that you're far stronger than her."
Fu Tianshu said, "If she's also at the sixteenth state, then we'll only know after we fight."
After that, he bid farewell to Yuan Tianji and left the pure land with Bodhisattva Ananda.
