Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 1731 - 1115 Sudden Change
Chapter 1731: 1115 Sudden Change
In consideration of Fire Cloud Cave, Jiang Chen took a step back, allowing the Buddhist opportunity of the Buddha Realm to be handed over to Red Cloud.
This reciprocation was understood; once Fire Cloud Cave’s fate was resolved, naturally, it had nothing more to do with Red Cloud Old Ancestor.
Compared to the position of the lord of the Buddha Realm, clearly resolving the karma of Fire Cloud Cave was more important. Therefore, to resolve this karma, Jiang Chen was willing to step back.
"How noble!"
Seeing Jiang Chen relent, the two Western Saints secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Nowadays, Jiang Chen was no longer a minor figure they could manipulate; rather, it was they who were easily manipulated by Jiang Chen.
Therefore, Jiang Chen’s opinion was very important.
If Jiang Chen was determined to disagree with their proposal, they indeed had no way to forcibly make Red Cloud Old Ancestor the lord of the Buddha Realm.
Without Jiang Chen’s approval, who could sit stably as the lord of the Buddha Realm? Perhaps within a few days of ascending to the position, they would mysteriously fall.
If Red Cloud Old Ancestor, after revival, died as a result, then making him the lord of the Buddha Realm would not be a kindness from the two Western Saints but rather a vengeance.
Of course, the reason they chose Red Cloud Old Ancestor to become the lord of the Buddha Realm was because they calculated that Jiang Chen would certainly agree. Faced with such a rare opportunity to resolve the karma of the Fire Cloud Cave, how could Jiang Chen refuse?
"Feel free to proceed with reviving Red Cloud Old Ancestor, saints. As the lord of the Buddha Realm, I must bear witness." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
After discussing the ownership of the Buddha Realm, Jiang Chen did not leave but stayed where he was, waiting for the two Western Saints to revive Red Cloud Old Ancestor.
Claiming to witness, it was actually to confirm the matter of allegiance. Red Cloud could be revived and become the lord of the Buddha Realm, but all of this was conditional on him being under Jiang Chen’s leadership.
There used to be several Lords in Buddhism; Jiang Chen did not care, but after him, Buddhism could only have him as the sole Lord. In Buddhism, he had to be unquestionable. Even the orders of saints had to come after him.
Jiang Chen conducted his business domineeringly.
The two Western Saints clearly understood Jiang Chen’s intentions, but they did not refuse, or rather, could not refuse.
Jiang Chen’s strength was too great; with the support of the Nine States, he far exceeded the two of them. As a result, the two Western Saints could not afford the cost of falling out with Jiang Chen.
A saint does not die; they would not die even if they fell out with Jiang Chen, but their lifetime foundation would truly change owners.
The foundation of the West was related to their grand wishes; before the grand wishes were completed, they absolutely could not be lost. Therefore, to preserve their foundation, the two Western Saints were extremely tolerant, agreeing to all of Jiang Chen’s demands as long as they did not touch upon their bottom line.
"It’s good to have the Star Lord as a witness, so once Fellow Daoist Red Cloud is revived, his status in the Buddha Realm will be unshakable."
Jieyin Saint replied with a smile. Having Jiang Chen as a witness was indeed a good thing for Red Cloud Old Ancestor. At least it indicated Jiang Chen’s approval, preventing future deaths from being inexplicable.
"Saints, please!"
Jiang Chen’s expression remained unchanged, but doubts arose in his heart. He always felt that things might not proceed as smoothly as the two Western Saints imagined.
The two imagined it well: giving the position of the lord of the Buddha Realm to Red Cloud Old Ancestor, reviving him, and repaying past karma.
However, the progress was too smooth, which was the biggest problem. It was said that Jiang Chen had many enemies, but did the two Western Saints have fewer enemies? Things had developed so far, yet no one had appeared to disrupt, which was abnormal.
Therefore, Jiang Chen thought that in this attempt to revive Red Cloud Old Ancestor by the two Western Saints, they might encounter considerable trouble and find it difficult to succeed.
Thinking this way, Jiang Chen didn’t issue a reminder but stayed quietly in place, watching the spectacle.
He was curious to see how the enemies of the two Western Saints planned to deal with them and by what means they intended to sabotage their plan.
At present, no one had made a move, indicating they had either given up making a move or were confident, hence not anxious.
"Proceed!"
Jieyin and Zhunti exchanged a glance, each took a deep breath, ready to revive Red Cloud Old Ancestor.
Jiang Chen knew that their enemies were scattered throughout the Prehistoric World; how could they not know themselves? They had been cautiously on guard for a long time,
Knowing that for this moment, they had prepared for a long time, starting from the Great Ancient period, laying out plans, and thus could not afford failure.
"Condense!"
As the senior brother, Jieyin Saint was the first to make a move, and with a lift of his hand, he stirred endless storm clouds. His cultivation at the Primordial Chaos 6th Level was displayed to its fullest, causing the entire Heaven and Earth to tremble.
Rumble!
Amidst a gigantic roar, the void suddenly shattered, and a vast River of Time and Space surged from the past towards the future continually.
"Primordial Chaos 6th Level? Isn’t it more than that!"
Jieyin Saint’s cultivation displayed was Primordial Chaos 7th Level, but for some reason, Jiang Chen always felt he was hiding his cultivation level.
Logically speaking, someone like Jieyin Saint, who was devoted to rigorous cultivation since becoming a saint, should have strong cultivation.
If not reaching Primordial Chaos 8th Level, they should at least have Primordial Chaos 7th Level to be worthy of their efforts. Primordial Chaos 6th Level was really too weak unless Jieyin Saint had been slacking all these years, otherwise it couldn’t just be this cultivation level.
"Let’s watch first; if any mishap occurs, it would be at this moment."
Seeing the River of Time and Space appear, Jiang Chen became alert at once, fixing his eyes tightly ahead.
