Simultaneous travel: My sons all have the qualities of an emperor

Chapter 431 Can Wisdom and Supernatural Powers Reach the Heavenly Decree? The Terrifying Tathagata
When time travelers meet, they don't hate each other to the point of wanting to kill each other; instead, they are overjoyed.

Moreover, they all have a common adversary, the Buddha, and destiny itself.

Wutian then imparted many great techniques to Gu Ming, imprinting them into Gu Ming's sea of ​​consciousness with supreme divine power. He also brought Gu Ming the Heavenly Peaches, the Ginseng Fruit from Wuzhuang Temple on Longevity Mountain, and even the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir of Laozi from the Tushita Palace.

Under the predetermined fate of the rise and fall of the demonic path, Wutian was an invincible being. No one dared to stop him, nor did anyone have the ability to stop him. Everything went smoothly.

Even if someone dares to try and stop them, they will be swiftly imprisoned by the Demonic Light of Wutian.

Thus, Gu Ming's cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds. In just a few years, ordinary immortals were no match for him, and he became the supreme ruler in the mortal realm.

But Gu Ming understood that there was nothing to be proud of, as he still couldn't overcome the challenges ahead.

As for Wutian, he set about how to govern the Heavenly Emperor. He could rule the Heavenly Emperor for thirty-three years. Now, after three years of comprehending his cultivation, he had thirty years left. After passing on the Great Dao of Divine Power to Gu Ming, he immediately began working.

Their roles were clearly defined: Gu Ming would teach Qiao Ling'er and nurture her humanity, while Wu Tian would govern the world and create a better human environment.

Therefore, from the time Qiao Ling'er was three years old and could speak, Gu Ming taught her the classics of Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism, explaining human principles and ethics, and also provided her with a beautiful environment with parental love.

In his spare time, he would discuss with Wutian how to govern the world. The two of them did the things of ancient sages, taught the people, cultivated farmland, and controlled floods.

Wutian was not satisfied with these achievements. In addition to taking control of the orthodoxy of the Heavenly Realm, he also discussed with Gu Ming to let Gu Ming sit high in the Golden Palace. The two of them, one holding divine power and the other holding human power, would jointly fight against the will of Heaven.

Of course, the Qiao family was unaware of this matter. Gu Ming separated his body into an external avatar and devoted most of his mind to the external avatar, while his main body remained in the Qiao family to cultivate.

As for the other members of the Qiao family, Gu Ming did not teach them cultivation methods. If he could win when the Buddha returned, he could ensure their immortality.

But if he loses and doesn't pass on his teachings to those people, perhaps he can let them live out their old age in peace.

After Gu Ming gained a deeper understanding of Wu Tian's cultivation, he proposed the idea of ​​gods being used by humans, using divine power to protect the human world.

To be honest, when Wutian shouted this slogan, not a single deity believed him. They thought Wutian was just putting on a show. After all, who would believe a leader of the demonic path saying the same thing?

Even if we assume Wutian is an idealistic leader of the demonic path, would his demons and monsters truly submit to him? Probably not.

However, as time went by, to the astonishment of all the immortals in the world, Wutian was actually doing good deeds. His many demons and monsters were also doing good deeds, bringing rain and thunder as they should, appearing to be extremely loyal to him.

All the immortals are different; what exactly is Wutian trying to do?

During this time, Sun Wukong came to visit, and Wutian captured and released him seven times. Afterwards, he even talked to the monkey honestly and reasoned with him, and took him on a tour of the country. After all these actions, the monkey was too embarrassed to oppose Wutian.

They are truly doing practical things; he observed that the world seemed even better than before.

For the past fifteen years, the world has enjoyed favorable weather, abundant harvests, and thriving life.

Unconsciously, some immortals and gods who truly yearn for the human world actually think that this seems like a good idea.

On this day, Qiao Ling'er turned eighteen, and as if it were predestined in a dream, she met Bai Lianhua and the wicked young master of the Hu family.

Qiao Ling'er is more sensible and extraordinary than in the original work. Her spiritual energy is unique and she is a well-known philanthropist in the area.

On this day, the notorious young master of the Hu family, who was known for his wickedness, was harassing a beautiful woman dressed in white. People gathered around, but no one dared to speak up for her.

"Haha, young lady, what are you looking at? I'm much prettier than any painting. Come home with me, and I'll let you appreciate me at your leisure."

When the young master of the Hu family saw that Bai Lianhua was beautiful and had a refined temperament, he was immediately aroused by lust. His father was a powerful figure in the town, so even if he wanted to forcibly abduct the beauty in the street, no one dared to stop him.

But today, he's messed with the scheming woman, which means he's really messed with a brick wall.

Despite her beautiful appearance and seemingly weak appearance, Bai Lianhua is actually the female leader of the Phoenix Head Mountain rebels in the mortal world.

Of course, that was the previous version of events. In the past, the world was filthy and full of sins, and Bai Lianhua also suffered as a result. In her childhood, due to the incompetence of the court at that time, her whole family was slaughtered by treacherous officials, leaving only her to survive, and she was taken in by the righteous army.

But things began to change slowly fifteen years ago, and the changes have become more dramatic in recent years. The emperor abdicated to someone else, and the new emperor was incredibly wise. Under the new emperor's leadership, treacherous officials were eliminated, and the country became prosperous and healthy. As a result, she, the leader of the rebel army, was completely bewildered and did not know who to seek revenge against.

I came down the mountain today to relax, but I encountered such a scoundrel. This made Bai Lianhua happy. So there are still bad people in the world. If that's the case, then the new emperor is probably not so perfect either.

Seeing that Bai Lianhua didn't react, the young scoundrel from the Hu family was about to move closer to her when a young man's voice suddenly rang out.

"Let go of that girl."

The young master of the Hu family looked at the newcomer with interest and said in a nonchalant manner, "Who is so blind as to dare to snatch the meat from my mouth?"

A handsome young man appeared, and even the scoundrel from the Hu family couldn't help but narrow his eyes upon seeing him. He naturally recognized Qiao Ling'er, whose reputation was widespread.

Even his father said that one should never provoke the Qiao family in town, as the head of the Qiao family was quite cunning.

When Bai Lianhua saw Qiao Ling'er, her heart skipped a beat.

Humans are visual creatures. Qiao Ling'er has an excellent appearance and a refined temperament. After all, he is the reincarnation of Buddha. Not to mention that he has a three-life love affair with Bai Lianhua. All of this makes Bai Lianhua unable to resist being moved by him.

"Qiao Ling'er, are you trying to ruin my plans?"

The wicked young master of the Hu family said rudely, and Qiao Ling'er shook her head, "I didn't mean to ruin your plans, but you shouldn't force others to bully you."

The young master of the Hu family had long heard of Qiao Ling'er's kind heart, and now that he saw it was true, he cursed inwardly for meddling in other people's business. But when he looked at the beautiful woman who made his mouth water, he was unwilling to give up.

He sneered, "You spout all that high-sounding stuff and you really think you're some kind of saint? If you won't let me have fun, then I'll make you my fun."

As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on Qiao Ling'er's genitals with a wicked look. Don't misunderstand, the young master of the Hu family may be bad, but his sexual preferences are normal. This behavior was just to make Qiao Ling'er back down.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Ling'er felt a surge of kindness. Seeing that the young master of the Hu family was accompanied by four bodyguards, she knew that if she did not agree, the girl would likely face a terrible ordeal.

Enough, enough, enough! If I don't go to hell, who will?

After a long pause, the young man said with trembling lips, "Okay."

Upon hearing this, the young master of the Hu family first felt a tightness in his anus, then flew into a rage and shouted, "Beat him! Beat him to death!"

The four servants acknowledged and immediately stepped forward to punch and kick Qiao Ling'er.

"Hahahahahaha."

Wutian in the sky laughed wildly and teased, "Tell me, was the one selling hooks just now the Buddha or your son?"

"Of course, it's Buddha who sells hooks," Gu Ming said without hesitation.

Wu Tian's eyes still held a smile as he asked, "Oh, then who is this young man who has been doing good deeds all these years?"

"That is naturally my son, Qiao Ling'er."

Gu Ming categorically stated that there were two standards.

Wu Tian chuckled and shook his head. Looking at the badly beaten Qiao Ling'er, his eyes suddenly turned serious: "Tell me, is Qiao Ling'er really the Buddha?"

A flicker of emotion crossed Gu Ming's eyes before he said, "I don't think so."

"Why, and why did Buddha reincarnate into Qiao Ling'er?"

Gu Ming was silent for a moment, then said, "It is precisely because of this that I have begun to doubt whether we can defeat the Buddha."

"Why?"

"I suddenly remembered that Bai Lianhua and Qiao Ling'er had a three-life love affair, but Buddha always lived high on Mount Ling, so how could he have come to these three lifetimes?"

Furthermore, Ling'er is extraordinary, yet his extraordinary qualities are similar to, but different from, those of Buddha. He has his own thoughts, his own kindness and compassion, and all of this is enough to convince me that he is not Buddha.

"If we disregard cultivation level and judge solely by reason, I am inferior to him. However, given time, he might become another Buddha."

Wu Tian frowned and pondered deeply, then heard Gu Ming say leisurely, "The Heavenly Dao is forty-nine, one of which is eliminated. Demons rise and the Dao declines, but it is only an elimination. Moreover, Buddha has three lifetimes. The past has been destroyed, the present has been eliminated, and the future is uncertain."

Wu Tian's eyes shone brightly.

"You mean that Qiao Ling'er might be the future Buddha, so the Buddha Tathagata took advantage of the rise of demons and the decline of Tao to escape, partly because he did not want to compete with me at this time, and partly to take advantage of the situation to replace the future Buddha and then occupy the position of the present and the future."

Gu Ming nodded silently: "That's right and wrong. When the Buddha infused seventeen relics into the body of the reincarnated child, didn't that also encompass the past? He wasn't trying to control the present and the future; he clearly wanted to unite the three worlds and become the one and only World Honored One among all the world's honored ones."

So I'm really confused right now. Can we win against an opponent like this? He uses fate to his advantage, while we've only risen by borrowing from it. Once fate turns against us, our true colors will be revealed.

Wu Tian's face was also ugly. He looked at Qiao Ling'er, who had been beaten and fallen to the ground, but in his eyes appeared a Buddha who was the only one who was supreme in heaven and earth.

"Hmph, no matter what fate holds, I will never admit defeat. Whether I win or lose, let's fight first."

Gu Ming laughed and said, "That's only right. Now it's your turn. My son is almost beaten to death."

Wutian then descended, dressed in black, exuding an aura of domineering arrogance. Not to mention mortals, even immortals and gods would tremble in fear upon seeing him.

Immediately, the young master of the Hu family and his gang dared not move. Instead, they looked at Wutian cautiously and asked, "Who are you? What do you want?"

Wu Tian showed no kindness to the young master of the Hu family, simply saying, "Do you know your crime? Beating others in public is punishable by imprisonment according to the law."

Upon hearing this, the young master of the Hu family arrogantly shouted, "Do you know who I am? How dare you use the law to suppress me!"

Wu Tian didn't say much, and suddenly soldiers arrived from all around, showing his sincere desire to change the world.

He would not resort to brute force unless absolutely necessary. Wutian only wished to use wisdom and order to govern the world and spread his ideals. This was the method he chose to deal with destiny and Tathagata.

The young master of the Hu family immediately changed color, realizing that he had encountered a powerful figure he could not afford to offend.

He said, blustering but cowardly, "You dare? If you arrest me, you'll regret it. Do you know who my father is?"

Wu Tian said quietly, "Threatening officers and soldiers and resisting law enforcement is an even more serious offense, punishable by fifty strokes of the cane."

The young master of the Hu family panicked. He realized that the people in front of him were not joking, and that with his overworked body, if he were really beaten fifty times, he would probably die on the spot.

"Wait, wait, let me go. My family is very rich. I can give you a lot of money."

"Offering bribes in the street is an even more serious offense; all three crimes will be punished concurrently, and the execution will be carried out on a later date!"

The young master of the Hu family knelt on the ground with a thud, kowtowing repeatedly to Wutian: "My lord, spare my life! I was just joking. I would never dare to disregard the law!"

When Qiao Ling'er, who was lying on the ground, heard that the young master of the Hu family was to be executed, she looked reluctant. Her kindness was so deep that it was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Just like in the original timeline, even though she had a golden lotus protecting her body and demons couldn't harm her, when the demons threatened an entire village, Qiao Ling'er voluntarily removed the golden light protecting her and was captured by the demons.

"My lord, I was just beaten. I won't hold it against him or report it to the authorities. Could you please spare his life?"

Wu Tian was not surprised; this was Qiao Ling'er's true nature, and also the reason why she appeared.

Upon hearing Qiao Ling'er's words, the young master of the Hu family kowtowed even more profusely.
"Qiao Ling'er, you must save me! I'm sorry for what I did. If you save me, I will never dare to do evil again."

Qiao Ling'er looked at Wu Tian, ​​who smiled and said, "He committed many evils. His death is a good thing for others."

Qiao Ling'er shook her head and said, "Life is precious, and you should never take someone's life so easily. Perhaps you should give him a chance."

Wu Tian laughed heartily:

“Giving him a chance is not difficult, but how can you guarantee that he won’t do evil again in the future? If what happened today happens again, then innocent girls will lose their chastity at his hands.”

Qiao Ling'er was speechless, but her compassionate heart truly couldn't bear to see the wicked young master of the Hu family die like this.

Seeing that the time was right, Wutian added, "Of course, it's not that I can't let him go. It depends on what price you're willing to pay to let me go."

Qiao Ling'er did not hesitate: "I can give you anything I have. Nothing is more important than human life, but I only represent myself, not my family."

Wu Tian laughed heartily: "Don't worry, what I want is only available to you, and only you have it."

"what would you like."

"The Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus of Merit".

Qiao Ling'er frowned, not because she was reluctant to part with it, but because she wondered if he even had it.
"I have never heard of this before, so how can I give it to you?"

Wu Tian smiled and said, "This thing was born with you and is hidden in your primordial spirit. As long as you are willing to give it to me, I have a way to take it out."

Qiao Ling'er didn't hesitate at all, "Then you can take it."
