Honghuang: People are intercepting religion, I am Wenquxing

Li Zhi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then he bowed respectfully outside the Great Sage's Mansion and said, "Great Sage, I am deeply grateful for your kindness. I would like to thank you on behalf of the fortune of the Tang Dynasty!"

The ministers in the court today are all the elites of an era, and each of them is extremely rare. Whether it is their skills, courage, or the power behind them, none of them can be compared to the current Li Zhi.

Only someone like my father can truly suppress these ministers. If something unexpected happens to my father this time, if he is enthroned as the emperor, even with the assistance of my ancestors, he will probably be marginalized by the ministers.

He now needs to grow, which requires countless time and political foundation, otherwise even if Li Zhi ascends to the throne, he may not be able to sit firmly on it.

Therefore, when Li Zhi heard Su Shaochen's words, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. What he needed most now was time...

At this time, Su Shaochen had already arrived at a teahouse in Chang'an City. Su Shaochen waved his hand and suddenly a space was opened up.

The figures of Maitreya, Huang Long and Pu Guang also appeared in front of Su Shaochen without hesitation.

Even though he didn't appear in Jiuzhou just now, and didn't avoid Su Shaochen when he took action, there was no need to.

Their highest realm is only the middle level of quasi-saint. It is basically impossible to hide it from Su Shaochen, who has fought with saints several times and is himself a peak quasi-saint.

Therefore, the three of them appeared in front of Su Shaochen openly, making Su Shaochen look at them with interest.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Wenchang!" Maitreya and the other two also bowed to Su Shaochen.

Although Su Shaochen is a generation lower than them, only the strong are respected in the prehistoric world nowadays. In front of the peak quasi-saint, although the three of them looked very frank, they still became a little restrained unconsciously.

"Good~" It turned out to be the hands of three Taoist friends.

"I dare not. Although the three of us hold high positions in Buddhism, we are not at the center of power and do not have great opportunities. This is our only plan to gain merit and spread our teachings. I am sorry to make you laugh, fellow Taoist Wenchang." Maitreya also smiled bitterly at this time.

Although they all have good luck in Buddhism, it is not in the general trend, and the luck they get is fixed. If they want to have a major breakthrough in the realm, they need a great opportunity.

But in today's Buddhism, Tathagata Buddha is revered as the head of the Buddha and has great say in the entire Buddhism.

Even the combined forces of Miaoshan, Shizhi and the founders of Buddhism, Dipankara, Guanyin and Samantabhadra, allowed them to make some noise.

But Maitreya, Huang Long and others were embarrassed, and neither side wanted to stay.

This made Huang Long seem to have returned to the Chan school, so he took the initiative to form an alliance with other Buddhists, which led to the appearance of Maitreya and the other two.

Although Maitreya is in charge, Huang Long is the strongest among the three. After he changed his martial arts method and with the guidance of the dragon ancestor, his strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and his physical strength has also become stronger.

But Huang Long is not good at speaking, and Maitreya can serve as a think tank among the three, so it is Maitreya who speaks all the time.

Moreover, Pu Guang is an incarnation of Zhao Gongming. No matter what, Su Shaochen would never attack Pu Guang, right?
Moreover, the Pu Guang incident in the past had caused the Sage Tongtian to take action, and the Emperor Wenchang in front of him was also involved in the planning.

This is also one of the reasons why the three of them dared to appear in front of Su Shaochen openly.

Su Shaochen couldn't help but laugh after hearing Maitreya's words. It seems that it is not easy for Maitreya, a disciple of the saint, to survive in Buddhism.

For the sake of the prosperity of the West and the great trend of Heaven, let alone Maitreya, a saintly disciple, even if Miao Shan and others were added, it would be difficult to change the attitude of the two saints of the West. The two saints of the West would bear the future infamy of the prosperity of the West.

Therefore, even though Maitreya and others were of little influence in Buddhism, they did not seek out the Two Saints of the West, but instead studied and planned on their own. On the contrary, the Two Saints of the West were not only very happy, but also supported them. After all, the Two Saints of the West were both famous for calculating the prehistoric world...

Su Shaochen had no interest in what Maitreya and the other two were planning, not to mention that what they were doing was also the trend of heaven, and Su Shaochen no longer cared about such luck and merit.

He has now attained the peak realm of quasi-saint. If he wants to break through and surpass the realm of quasi-saint, it is not enough to rely on luck and merit. It requires accumulation and understanding of the Tao.

Su Shaochen, who had just achieved the peak of quasi-sainthood, was still very far away from this step. This step required the accumulation of endless energy. Therefore, Su Shaochen seldom went into seclusion nowadays. Instead, he traveled and comprehended the myriad ways to verify the text.

…………

On the other side, when Li Zhi came back, the ancestor of the Li family had already given instructions for everything. Li Shimin was lying peacefully in the Taiji Hall, and his soul had not yet returned.

Outside the palace, Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde were holding golden axes, guarding the palace gate, wearing shining golden helmets and dragon-scale armor. The protective mirror was covered with auspicious clouds, the lion-barbarian buckle was tightened, and the embroidered belt was new with colorful clouds.

The murderous aura and bloody war energy accumulated on the battlefields of the past have protected this place tightly.

At this time, Changsun Wuji had already been waiting here for Li Zhi to return. The ministers had already heard the words of the great sage, so they did not wait for Li Zhi.

"Uncle~" Li Zhi saw Changsun Wuji suppressing countless thoughts and couldn't help but call him uncle.

After hearing this, Changsun Wuji felt a little weathered and vicissitudes of life. After his sister passed away a few years ago, his nephews also started to rebel one by one, which made Changsun Wuji a little anxious.

Now that Li Zhi has met Li Shimin's expectations, he is also the key to the future prosperity of his eldest grandson's lineage. Therefore, he fully supports Li Zhi.

I don't know why he behaved like this today, which made Changsun Wuji start to be alert. If Li Zhi really ascends the throne in the future, he must have a backup plan. His nephew is much more thoughtful than Cheng Qian and Li Tai!

Even in some strategies, he is not inferior to his father Li Shimin at all. Moreover, this nephew is extremely patient and able to control himself. No matter what happens, he can keep his emotions under control.

Take today for example, Li Zhi still called him so affectionately, but Changsun Wuji began to feel a little wary of his nephew.

"Alas, you must be cautious in your future actions. Now that the king has not decided on the position of crown prince, you must tread on thin ice." Changsun Wuji has some understanding and knowledge of his nephew.

When the ancestor of the Li family couldn't find Li Zhi today, Changsun Wuji guessed something.

Moreover, he had met that other wave of Buddhist forces before.

Moreover, Li Zhi also told him some of his ideas, so Changsun Wuji also turned a blind eye. Moreover, Changsun Wuji and Li Zhi also had the same view. Since the other party had a plan, they should take it. They were afraid that the other party had no plan...

After what happened today, I'm afraid the gap between uncle and nephew will grow bigger and bigger in the future, and it will be difficult for them to be as close as before...

Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji sighed quietly in his heart. Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde stood there as if they heard nothing, just like dummies, but the merits of heaven and earth actually fell on them.

This attracted the attention of countless officials and powerful people in Chang'an. (End of this chapter)
