Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#2437 - Chu Hao sees through the mystery

Guanyin, severely injured, was immediately sent back to Mount Ling by the Buddha Baozhuang Guangwang to recuperate. However, Guanyin didn't want to lose face in front of the Tathagata Buddha.

Upon returning to Mount Ling, supported by the Buddha, she immediately went to pay her respects to the Tathagata Buddha.

The Tathagata Buddha, seeing Guanyin in such a state, couldn't help but ask with puzzlement,

"Guanyin, why have you become like this?"

Guanyin, having already planned in her heart, immediately began to complain to the Tathagata Buddha with tears streaming down her face.

"Buddha, we had originally captured Tang Sanzang and his disciples, but the Demon and Monster clans suddenly appeared, ruining our plans.

I was injured by the Demon Emperor Chujin and then besieged by Tang Sanzang and his disciples, leading to my capture. Although they interrogated me, I didn't reveal a single word.

Later, taking advantage of Tang Sanzang's carelessness, I secretly used a clever plan and fought a great battle with the Demon clan, finally escaping back from them."

Guanyin had used all her wits to beautify herself as a meritorious official of the Western Paradise.

"Hmm, you have suffered!"

The Tathagata Buddha naturally trusted Guanyin and comforted her.

However, Chu Hao, trapped within the formation, had also clearly heard Guanyin's words. Chu Hao understood Guanyin very well.

From Guanyin's words, he immediately discerned her lies and sensed the underlying secrets.

"It seems Tang Sanzang and his disciples captured Guanyin to save me. Based on Guanyin's personality, she must have told them everything."

"Tang Sanzang and the others want to save me, so they must have asked the Demon and Monster clans for help. However, judging by Chujin's style, he will not only not save me but will also take the opportunity to kick me when I'm down and put me to death."

"Therefore, they secretly released Guanyin, so that Tang Sanzang and his disciples would lose evidence, and the Heavenly Court would not be able to directly demand someone from the Western Paradise."

Chu Hao instantly understood everything, and looking at Guanyin, he also had his own plans.

"Guanyin, you are truly a loyal subject of the Western Paradise, but did you really not say anything to Tang Sanzang and the others?"

Chu Hao asked Guanyin with a profound meaning.

"Forget it, Tang Sanzang and the others are in the hands of the Demon and Monster clans, and you are probably helpless against them.

Let's see how your Western Journey plan will proceed. At worst, we'll just drag this out. If it takes too long, the Heavenly Court will naturally search for my whereabouts."

Chu Hao said to the Tathagata Buddha and Guanyin.

Hearing Chu Hao say this, Guanyin also frowned and suggested to the Tathagata Buddha,

"Buddha, what Chu Hao said also makes some sense. If the matter of Lingyun Ferry is delayed, it will be extremely detrimental to us.

Therefore, I implore the Buddha to take action, go to Lingyun Ferry, defeat the Demon and Monster clans, capture Tang Sanzang and his disciples, and continue our Western Journey plan.

Otherwise, it will easily create more variables, and we will become passive."

Hearing Guanyin's suggestion, the Tathagata Buddha couldn't help but nod, but he also looked at Chu Hao.

"Then someone must also keep an eye on Chu Hao. This task will be entrusted to you and the Ancient Buddha Dipamkara.

You need to take turns introducing turbid energy into the formation to erode Chu Hao's consciousness and thoughts. Only after a hundred days can Chu Hao's consciousness be erased."

The Tathagata Buddha instructed Guanyin.

"Buddha, rest assured, I will definitely do as you instructed and ensure that Chu Hao becomes a walking corpse."

Hearing Guanyin say this, the Tathagata Buddha was relieved and personally helped Guanyin recover from her injuries.

Only after Guanyin's cultivation had recovered to eighty percent did he leave Leiyin Temple with peace of mind and personally go to Lingyun Ferry to assist in the battle.

Chu Hao, watching the Tathagata Buddha leave, was immediately overjoyed.

In fact, Chu Hao was deliberately leading Guanyin on. Based on Chu Hao's understanding of Guanyin, doing this was not difficult.

Chu Hao already had a plan to escape, but there was only one condition: the Tathagata Buddha could not personally guard him here.

With the Tathagata Buddha's strength, Chu Hao could not use his plan to escape under his watch.

Therefore, Chu Hao guided Guanyin to make a suggestion, allowing the Tathagata Buddha to go to Lingyun Ferry. With only Guanyin and the Ancient Buddha Dipamkara guarding him here, it would be much easier for Chu Hao to escape.

Although trapped in this formation, the Tathagata Buddha guided turbid energy into it, wanting to erode Chu Hao's consciousness and thoughts.

But Chu Hao also had a way to deal with it. He had many magical treasures on his body, and he took turns using these treasures to resist the turbid energy.

Especially the Undying Spiritual Root, which was a treasure that could absorb all things and turn them into vitality.

Although it had been more than ten days, Chu Hao's consciousness had not been eroded by the turbid energy and remained clear.

It was just that Chu Hao needed to slowly break through this Spirit Mountain battle, and according to his estimation, it should take about a month.

Guanyin and the Ancient Buddha Dipamkara took turns guarding Chu Hao, but the relationship between the Ancient Buddha Dipamkara and Guanyin was not harmonious.

Previously, because of Guanyin's mistake, the Ancient Buddha Dipamkara had lost his Spiritual Pivot Lamp, and the Ancient Buddha Dipamkara had always hated Guanyin with gnashing teeth.

But because the Tathagata Buddha favored Guanyin, the Ancient Buddha Dipamkara could only choose to swallow his anger and suppress this hatred.

Just seeing Guanyin, he already had the urge to dismember her into eight pieces. Naturally, there was no cooperation to speak of with Guanyin.

"Guanyin, you and I are taking turns guarding Chu Hao, but this Buddha has been feeling unwell recently, so you should guard him for a few more days."

Although Guanyin was a favorite in front of the Tathagata, the Ancient Buddha Dipamkara was, after all, of a higher status than her. Guanyin had no choice but to accept such a difficult request from Dipamkara.

"As you command, Buddha."

Guanyin was dissatisfied in her heart, but she had to agree.

"Damn old Dipamkara, you are actually retaliating for personal grudges. Since you are unjust, then don't blame me for being disloyal."

As time went on, Guanyin also began to slack off and play tricks, and her guard over Chu Hao became much more lax.

And Chu Hao at this time truly began his plan to break through the formation, using his cultivation every day to slowly weaken the formation a little.

This little bit of weakening, Guanyin would not be able to see it at all if she didn't observe carefully.

At the same time, in Lingyun Ferry, with the arrival of the Tathagata Buddha, the Western Paradise had begun to make preparations for a large-scale counterattack.

"This venerable one will personally fight Chujin, and let the Buddha Baozhuang Guangwang clan contain the Monster Emperor Feiyi. After these two powerhouses are contained, you will launch an attack on the Demon and Monster clans.

This time, I have not only brought all the powerhouses of our Western Paradise but also brought the treasure of our Western Paradise, the Leiyin Bell.

When the decisive battle arrives, the Leiyin Bell will ring, suppressing the demons, and we can defeat them in one fell swoop and capture Tang Sanzang and his disciples."

The Tathagata Buddha was willing to spare no expense to ensure the success of the Lingyun Ferry plan, even bringing the great bell of Leiyin Temple.

"Buddha, rest assured, we will definitely fight with all our strength."

Those Western Paradise big shots and elite Buddhas shouted at the Tathagata Buddha one after another.
