I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

Inside the Earth's core, Maitreya, sitting cross-legged, watched helplessly as the Bull Demon King was forcefully suppressed with no chance of turning the tide. His anxiety grew, so he stopped using the Earth's core fluid to cleanse the restrictions and instead opened his mouth wide, frantically devouring the Earth's core energy.

"shut up."

Qin Yao immediately noticed his actions, and while shouting, he waved his hand to release countless spacetime laws, sealing off the spacetime within a hundred miles.

The Earth's core fluid was sealed off, but Maitreya was not. Suddenly, boundless Buddhist light emanated from his body, and he said coldly, "Don't come any closer, or I will self-destruct my Buddha body and completely destroy the Earth's core!"

"Are you willing to do that?" Qin Yao sneered.

"When faced with two evils, choose the lesser one." Maitreya said, "Although my Buddha body is precious, my own will is even more precious."

Qin Yao said, "I can guarantee that if you do this, your soul will not be able to escape; in other words, if the earth is destroyed, you will be buried with it."

“You overestimate yourself,” Maitreya said in a deep voice.

"You can try."

Qin Yao said, "Anyway, if it really comes to that, the immense karma won't fall on me."

Maitreya, you are the future Buddha, surely you understand how terrifying karma is?

Maitreya paused for a moment, then changed the subject: "How about we make a bet?"

"What are we betting on?" Qin Yao asked.

“Betting on the good and evil of human nature!” Maitreya responded.

Qin Yao smiled and said, "Alright, then I'll bet on the evil in human nature."

Maitreya: "..."

Is this right?
You should bet on the goodness of human nature!

"What's wrong? You're scared now?"

During his silence, Qin Yao asked with a half-smile.

Maitreya's lips twitched: "What I'm betting on is also the evil of human nature."

Qin Yao said, "Well, there's nothing I can do about it. Who told you to speak so late?"

"No, we must change the bet," Maitreya said. "Otherwise, how can it be fair?"

Qin Yao nodded: "Then shall I suggest one?"

"No, I'll bring it up. I have the initiative now."

Maitreya waved his hand, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "I've got it! Let's go back to the ordeal of Little Western Paradise together. Whoever can bring Xuanzang back will be the winner."

Qin Yao said, "Two versions of yourself cannot exist in the same space-time."

“There is a point in time when I am not in that time and space!” Maitreya said without hesitation.

Qin Yao's heart stirred slightly: "You mean, after you chased us into the time tunnel?"

“That’s right.” Maitreya nodded. “The timing was perfect.”

Qin Yao pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, let's go..."

"Wait a moment."

Maitreya raised his hand and asked, "What if I leave like this, and you suddenly break your promise?"

Qin Yao's expression was unfriendly: "Are you questioning my character?"

“Yes,” Maitreya replied sharply, “Therefore, I must have a backup plan.”

Qin Yao: "..."

In fact, he did have the idea of ​​breaking the contract after leaving, since that was the quickest way to resolve the problem.

"Then what do you want?"

"Give me some time, and allow me to summon Huang Mei." Maitreya said, "At that time, I will leave the Boundary-Breaking Pearl to him. If you break the contract or go back on your word, this Earth Core will still be lost."

Qin Yao questioned, "But what if you break your promise?"

“How could I possibly break my word?” Maitreya retorted.

Qin Yao sneered: "Just as you don't trust me, I don't trust you either."

"And what do you mean?" Maitreya asked cautiously, his brows furrowing slightly.

Qin Yao thought for a moment and said, "Have Huang Mei bring Lu Xiaoqian along, and have Sha Niu stay here to watch over them."

Maitreya slowly narrowed his eyes and said with some surprise, "Don't you believe that human nature is inherently evil? Why would you bet your life on Lu Xiaoqian?"

With his intelligence, it wouldn't be hard for him to see the deeper meaning behind the other party's request, but he didn't understand where the trust in that deeper meaning came from.

No matter what, Lu Xiaoqian was his disciple, so why would he help the other party persuade Huang Mei?
Qin Yao said, "You don't need to understand, and I'm obligated to explain. Just tell me if you dare or not; if you don't dare, then you can change the bet."

"Why don't I dare?"

Maitreya snorted coldly, suddenly erected a protective shield, and summoned a cell phone with a flick of his hand, dialing a number.

"Hey, Buddha."

"Tianba, have Huangmei bring you and Lu Xiaoqian here immediately," Maitreya instructed.

"Yes, Your Majesty," Wang Tianba said respectfully.

On the golden platform, Qin Yao suddenly raised an eyebrow.

Judging from this dialogue, Wang Tianba, the bandit leader in the original drama, has become Maitreya's subordinate?

In other words, Huang Mei is still entangled with Wang Tianba and others, which, compared to the original drama and reality, is indeed full of a sense of destiny...

After a long time.

Guided by Wang Tianba, Huang Mei carried one person in each hand to the refined gold platform. However, upon seeing President You's figure, both he and Lu Xiaoqian in his left hand changed their expressions drastically.

"You've finally arrived!" Maitreya shouted from within the Earth's core.

"Master (Master)." The three of them quickly greeted him.

Maitreya nodded, raised his hand to summon the Boundary-Breaking Pearl, and said softly, "Huang Mei, come here."

"Yes, Master." Huang Mei obediently agreed, stepping into the void and rushing into the Earth's core liquid.

Maitreya smiled slightly, then handed the Boundary-Breaking Pearl to him and instructed him:
"I have a bet with Boss You, and I need to go back to the Tang Dynasty. You hold my Boundary-Breaking Pearl and wait here. If I don't return within seven days, you can detonate this Boundary-Breaking Pearl. Do you understand?"

Huang Mei gasped, "Master, I..."

"Don't say anything else, did you hear me clearly?" Maitreya interrupted.

Helpless, Huang Mei could only say, "I heard you clearly."

"Good that you heard me."

Maitreya nodded slightly, then suddenly appeared on the refined gold platform. He then said to Wang Tianba, "Tianba, keep an eye on Xiaoqian for me, and don't let him do anything foolish at a crucial moment."

Wang Tianba didn't understand what a critical moment was, nor did he know what a foolish thing was, but he didn't ask any questions and simply agreed.

As the saying goes, things will work themselves out when the time is right. He believed that since his master had given such instructions, the situation would become clear when the time was right.

Maitreya liked Wang Tianba's personality, and nodded with approval in his eyes. He then came to Qin Yao and said, "Let's go."

Qin Yao glanced at the silly girl and instructed, "Time travel, the time point is after Maitreya chased us into the time tunnel last time; the characters are me and Maitreya; note, do not encounter Maitreya who has already entered the time tunnel."

He clearly remembered that in the original setting of the Magic Mobile Phone series, two versions of himself could not exist in the same space-time, but they could in the space-time tunnel.

Therefore, when Sha Niu takes Lu Xiaoqian through time, she sees herself traveling through time at other points in time.

According to this setup, if he doesn't explain things clearly beforehand, and the two of them happen to encounter another Maitreya, the situation will be very unfavorable for him!

"Alright, the time tunnel is under construction. Please follow my instructions." Silly Girl waved her hand, and countless green numbers suddenly appeared, creating a time tunnel out of thin air.

Qin Yao raised his hand and said, "Future Buddha, please go first."

"You go first," Maitreya said. "I'll follow you."

Qin Yao didn't take it seriously and rushed into the time tunnel first. Maitreya turned his head to look at Huang Mei and the others, and followed closely behind, stepping into it.

half an hour.

As the light from the passageway above the underground platform dissipated, a burst of light suddenly appeared on Silly Girl's body, followed by a voice from the distant future calling out in her ear: "Silly Girl, Silly Girl, can you hear me?"

“Doctor, I heard you,” Silly Girl replied immediately.

"Where are you now? Why did you turn off your body camera?" the doctor asked.

The silly girl responded, "The owner turned off the camera."

"Owner?!"

In 2060, inside the laboratory, countless men in white coats were stunned, and gasps of surprise filled the air.

Among the crowd, in the absolute center position, stood a man with a sharp face, wearing glasses and a sparse mustache, who said, "You haven't even left the factory yet, how come you suddenly have an owner?"

Silly Girl said, "Because in this time and space, someone revealed my login password, and the system automatically completed the identity binding."

"How could people from other timelines know your password?" a young scientist asked in astonishment.

"It must be because your password is too simple," a man with an afro immediately said beside him.

Young scientist: "..."

The three words "I love you" seem a bit too simple.

But the problem is, who would say "I love you" to a crystal doll without knowing its contents?

"Silly girl, come back right now."

The doctor in white took a silent breath and said in a deep voice.

Silly Girl shook her head and replied, "According to the built-in program, once Silly Girl completes the recognition process, she needs the master's consent to return to the base."

PhD:"……"

This procedure was originally intended to protect customer privacy and personal interests, but unexpectedly it has now become a problem for them.

“Where is your master? We need to speak with him,” the young scientist said.

Silly Girl said, "According to the user agreement, I cannot reveal the owner's whereabouts; but he is indeed not with me right now, so I cannot communicate with you."

The doctor let out a silent sigh and said, "Let's wait until he gets back; by the way, when will he be back?"

"Silly girl, you don't know."

PhD:"……"

In the time tunnel.

Maitreya channeled the little immortal energy within him and silently followed behind You Suowei. Several times he wanted to attack him, but he ultimately restrained himself.

There is no other reason.

He felt that his chances of winning this bet were naturally greater than his opponent's.

After all, at the timeline of Little Western Paradise, he was still a vice-leader of Buddhism, while what was the other party?

For Xuanzang, a Buddhist disciple, who to believe didn't seem to be a question he needed to consider.

"Shu~"

Just as he was distracted by this matter, countless dazzling runes suddenly appeared above his head. These runes connected together and instantly wove into a large golden net.

Maitreya was blinded by the golden light of the Dharma Net and instinctively tried to stop himself, but it was too late. He could no longer stop and crashed headfirst into it.

Like flies and mosquitoes caught in a spider web, Maitreya struggles in the golden net, trying to escape.

However, he was not completely unsealed after all, and Qin Yao was in his prime, so no matter how much he struggled, he could not break free.

"You Suowei, what are you doing?!"

Qin Yao hovered in mid-air opposite the golden net, looking down at the immortal giant below: "I only did what you wanted to do but didn't. Just now, do you dare to say that you didn't have any intention of attacking me?"

Maitreya struggled to pull his arms upwards, but found it was futile. He could only roar angrily:

"Don't judge me by my own standards. I never thought that way. Let me go, or I'll make Huang Mei detonate the Boundary-Breaking Pearl."

Qin Yao said, "I know you can issue commands at any time through the Boundary-Breaking Pearl, so this net blocks all signal transmission. If you don't believe me, you can try it."

Maitreya's expression changed slightly. He immediately communicated with the Boundary-Breaking Bead and indeed found that he had lost his connection and connection with it.

If contact has been lost, how can signals be transmitted?
"Have you forgotten what I told Yellow Eyebrows when we left?"

Shortly after, Maitreya feigned composure and said, "If I do not return safely in seven days, Huang Mei will still detonate the Boundary-Breaking Pearl. At that time, you will also bear the consequences of destroying the Earth!"

Qin Yao raised his hand and unleashed a Mystic Mirror, the contents of which were clearly the scene inside the Earth's core: "Let's make a new bet. I bet that Huang Mei won't destroy the Earth in seven days."

"You madman!" Maitreya shouted in alarm, "Why did you do this? You clearly had many other choices."

Qin Yao said, "So that you can finally give up."

"Have you thought about what would happen if Yellow Eyebrows really blew up the Earth?" Maitreya shouted.

Qin Yao responded, "No, Huang Mei isn't inherently bad, and with Lu Xiaoqian around, he would never detonate the Boundary-Breaking Pearl."

“Wang Tianba will stop Lu Xiaoqian,” Maitreya said solemnly.

"Do you think Wang Tianba is a bad person?" Qin Yao asked back.

Maitreya: "..."

Isn't Wang Tianba a bad guy?

When he first met the other person, the other person was stealing cell phones with a gang... How could a thief be a good person?
A blink of an eye.

Seven days later.

Inside the Earth's core, within the subsurface fluid, Huang Mei's anxiety grew even more pronounced, and he couldn't help but ask Wang Tianba, "Is it seven days yet?"

Wang Tianba nodded: "It's been seven days."

Huang Mei pursed her lips, her fingers trembling as she reached for the Boundary-Breaking Bead.

"Huang Mei!" Lu Xiaoqian suddenly shouted.

Yellow Eyebrows shuddered and yelled, "What are you yelling about? You scared me!"

"Don't you like this world?" Lu Xiaoqian asked.

Huang Mei said, "I do like it, but I promised..."

“Maitreya is not only your master, he is also my teacher. But I understand that even if he is my teacher, he should not help the wicked if he does something wrong,” Lu Xiaoqian said.

Suddenly, Wang Tianba sprang into action, delivering a heavy punch to Lu Xiaoqian's face.

Lu Xiaoqian was instantly knocked to the ground, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, but she stared wide-eyed at Wang Tianba:
"Do you know what you're doing? Do you know what Yellow Eyebrows is going to do?"
Once that bead breaks open, the Earth's core will be destroyed, and the Earth will be finished.

The Earth is finished, and everything you cherish will be destroyed; is there no one left in this world you care about?

Wang Tianba: "..."

Seeing that he remained silent, Lu Xiaoqian got up again and said to Huang Mei, "Also, Huang Mei, you only remember how good your master was to you and how good President You was to you. Can you forget that?"

Think about it carefully. Should you help President You help your master let go of his obsession, or destroy the Earth and betray President You's expectations of you? (End of Chapter)
