Honglou: This bastard is too persuasive.

Chapter 461: Bodhi Patriarch is forced to bleed
This result made Bodhi Patriarch feel uncomfortable. If Sun Wukong could improve by taking this treasure, that would be the best. But now this situation can only be the last one. Ordinary treasures are of no use to Sun Wukong.

If ordinary treasures are useless to Sun Wukong, then if he wants to upgrade his cultivation to the Taiyi Golden Immortal, it will not only take time, but also require more treasures. Patriarch Bodhi may find it hard to accept this, but he also knows that if he does not upgrade Sun Wukong, he will definitely become the biggest loser in the entire Journey to the West. This is something he absolutely cannot accept, and he can only try his best to cultivate Sun Wukong.

So, he took out a few acquired spiritual fruits and threw them to Sun Wukong. Sun Wukong continued to persuade him without saying anything, but after persuading him, his cultivation level barely improved a little. Of course, this was the fact that after taking the acquired spiritual fruits, his cultivation level was already approaching the level of a true immortal.

However, due to the power of the hidden technique, after eating up the neighboring country, he only made a small step forward in the stage of refining qi and transforming into a spirit. Afterwards, Sun Wukong said to Patriarch Bodhi with special dissatisfaction.

"Master, forget it. The thing you gave me didn't absorb any spiritual energy at all. It's completely useless. I might as well meditate and practice. If you give me something like this again, I won't want it. I also want to thank you for taking care of me, Master. But I really can't afford the treasure you gave me. It's useless after eating it. Why did you give it to me? You might as well give it to other brothers. Maybe they will find it useful after eating it."

Originally, when Patriarch Bodhi gave Sun Wukong good things, his fellow disciples were envious and jealous. But after seeing him like this, they were no longer envious and were more speechless. Could it be that this monkey had no sense of propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame?

It's obvious that the master didn't intend to give you anything good. What he gave you were just ordinary things, which just looked better on the surface. If he gave you these things, you could just take them back and pretend you didn't know anything. But you insisted on eating them in front of everyone, aren't you embarrassing the master?

They all saw that Bodhi Patriarch's face had turned dark. After all, the Patriarch was their master, and this monkey was so disrespectful to the master. If these disciples did not help the master regain face, wouldn't the master hate them? So the eldest disciple hurriedly spoke.

"Sun Wukong, do you have any manners? You should have kept the things that the master gave you. You ate them secretly when no one was around. No matter whether they were effective or not, they were a token of the master's kindness. Now you eat them so openly and then prove that they are useless. Aren't you saying that the master deliberately gave you rubbish and said they were good things?"

"You are just trying to slap the master in the face. How can you be a disciple like this? You should apologize to the master immediately."

The others were also infected by the eldest brother's words and jumped out to speak.

"Sun Wukong, Sun Wukong, why are you so ignorant? It's good enough that the master can give you the treasure, why do you care whether the treasure is effective or not? I gave it to you as a token of my master's kindness, so don't push your luck."

"Yes, Sun Wukong, you should have some self-awareness. It's good enough that the master can give you so much, but you don't even know how to cherish me. Let me tell you, if it were someone else, the master would have given you nothing. If you have something given by the master, you are very lucky. Hurry up and leave. Don't embarrass yourself here."

"I have followed Master for such a long time, but I have never received any reward from Master. Master has also never given us brothers anything. Now I have given you twice, and you are still not satisfied. What else do you want?"

Hearing what the disciples said, the face of Bodhi Patriarch who was sitting on the top became even darker. If this incident had not happened, it would be a good thing. Now that it happened, everyone is pointing the finger at him. He is indeed unqualified as a master, but he himself did not want to accept these people as disciples, but just wanted to have fun. As a result, what you said now makes me, as a master, look stingy and generally don't give you any good things.

Although this is true, but you say this, am I, as a master, shameless? At this time, Jia Dongsheng also looked at everyone with a shocked face and said.

"My fellow disciples, please don't joke with me. You have been under the master's name for such a long time, how could the master not give you anything? Even my junior brother Sun Wukong was taken good care of by the master, and he gave him good skills and training materials. As the disciples who came earlier, I don't believe that the master would ignore you."

"Did the master secretly give you something? You don't want to tell anyone? Alas, if you want to talk about pity, it's still me and my wife who have been away from the master for such a long time, but we really didn't get anything. If we hadn't listened when the master was teaching his junior brother the skills, we wouldn't even have the skills to practice."

This added fuel to the fire, making everyone feel that Patriarch Bodhi was only good to Sun Wukong and was very bad to them. Patriarch Bodhi naturally saw the changes in these disciples. Although he looked down on these disciples, he could not let it affect his reputation.

So for the sake of his own reputation, Patriarch Bodhi simply gritted his teeth and spoke to everyone.

"Who said I didn't prepare anything for you? I have prepared a spiritual treasure for each of you, but this spiritual treasure will only be given to you after you break through to the Heavenly Immortal stage. This is a good thing that many people would beg for but cannot obtain."

"The reason why I take extra care of your junior brother is mainly because your junior brother's talent in cultivation is too poor. He cultivates slower than all of you. So I want to help him become an immortal first, and then let him be."

"After all, they are all my disciples. I cannot favor one over the other, and I cannot let him feel the gap, so don't think too much about it."

"Of course, what I did today was indeed wrong. So, I won't give you the spiritual treasures yet. I will provide each of you with an immortal energy to use first. At the same time, I also have a lot of elixirs in my hand. Each of you can take one."

"As for your junior brother, don't bother with him. He cultivates so slowly. If I don't help him, he will never become an immortal in this lifetime. Then your junior brother will die."

Having said that, Patriarch Bodhi heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that his disciples had calmed down one by one. He really didn't expect that these disciples he had casually accepted would actually rebel against him.

If my plan had not been completed, why would I bother with these rubbish?
