On the Dragon-Slaying Platform, I was executed and became Yang Jian's brother-in-law.

Above the sea of ​​blood, the aftershocks of the Styx Ancestor's self-destruction had not yet completely dissipated.

The scene shifts, and Su Bai is seen traversing the towering mountains of Xiniu Hezhou with Princess Iron Fan. Princess Iron Fan holds the infant Red Boy in her arms, her expression sorrowful, occasionally glancing back towards the sea of ​​blood.

"Grandmaster..." Princess Iron Fan bit her lip, tears glistening in her eyes.

Su Bai grasped her hand and said in a deep voice, "Senior Styx risked his life to buy us this opportunity; we cannot let him sacrifice himself in vain."

"But what can we do?" Princess Iron Fan looked at Su Bai blankly. "The Heavenly Court and the West have joined forces, we..."

"Gather the demons of Xiniu Hezhou!" A glint flashed in Su Bai's eyes. "The West claims to be compassionate and save all living beings, but how many of the demons in Xiniu Hezhou have truly benefited?"

Lingxiao Palace

All the immortals and gods stared intently at the screen, filled with curiosity about Su Bai's next move.

"Gather the demon race?" Taibai Jinxing frowned. "Xiniu Hezhou is western territory, those demon races..."

"Heh, this is going to be good." Zhao Gongming sneered, "I've heard quite a bit about what the West has been doing in Xiniu Hezhou these past few years."

The Buddha's expression changed slightly, and he transmitted a message to Guanyin: "Quickly check the divination results. If there is anything amiss, report it immediately."

In the picture

Su Bai brought Princess Iron Fan to a deep mountain in Xiniu Hezhou.

Hundreds of demons gathered here, but strangely, although these demons were called "demons," they did not have much ferocity. Instead, they were all emaciated and covered in wounds.

"What...what's going on?" a celestial official from the Heavenly Court asked in surprise.

In the scene, Su Bai walks into the group of demons.

The leader was a tiger demon, covered in whip marks. Upon seeing Su Bai and Princess Iron Fan, he trembled and knelt down on the ground.

"Two immortals, spare my life! This little demon...this little demon did no evil, truly did no evil!"

Su Bai helped the tiger spirit up: "I didn't come to kill you. Tell me, why have you ended up in such a state?"

Tears welled in the tiger demon's eyes: "Immortal, you may not know, but we are native demons of Xiniu Hezhou, where we have cultivated for generations. Since the rise of the West, the Buddha of Mount Ling has kept us captive..."

"Keep them in captivity?" Princess Iron Fan asked, puzzled.

"It's exactly what they call captivity!" the tiger spirit cried out in grief and indignation. "Every so often, Mount Ling sends us to human villages to 'commit evil,' and then their disciples appear to 'subdue' or 'kill' us, in order to harvest our faith and merit."

"What?!"

Not only was Su Bai in the scene shocked, but even the immortals of Heaven were shocked.

"This...how is this possible?" Venus exclaimed in disbelief.

Zhao Gongming sneered, "Why is it impossible? What are those bald monks in the West incapable of?"

The scene continues.

Another fox demon stepped forward tremblingly: "If we do not comply, our entire race will be wiped out. My husband and children were beaten to death by the Arhats of Mount Ling because they refused to 'do evil'..."

"We have never harmed any humans!" a deer demon cried out. "We only put on an act to scare the villagers, but those Arhats and Bodhisattvas don't care at all; they just kill us without warning!"

"Our lives, in their eyes, are nothing more than nourishment for merit and incense offerings!"

In the Lingxiao Palace, the faces of all the immortals and gods turned extremely ugly.

"The West... such ruthless methods!" Master Taiyi's face turned ashen.

The Jade Emperor slammed his fist on the table and exclaimed, "Compassion? Saving all sentient beings? Is this the compassion of the West?!"

The Buddha's face was grim, yet he could not refute it. For what was depicted in the scene was a true reflection of the West in recent years. It was just that no one had ever made these things public before.

The scene shifts, and Su Bai arrives at another demon's lair.

The demons here are in an even more miserable state.

The leader was a blue dragon, but it was now chained up, its scales were falling off, and it was barely breathing.

"You are..." Su Bai frowned.

Azure Dragon raised his head, his eyes filled with despair: "I... was once a disciple of the Intercepting Sect. After the Investiture of the Gods, I was 'converted' by the West..."

"Disciples of the Jie Sect?"

"It's not just me..." Qinglong laughed bitterly, "In this Xiniu Hezhou, at least 30% of the demons kept in captivity by the West were once disciples of the Jie Sect."

Su Bai was shocked, and the celestial beings of Heaven were in an uproar!

"What?!" Zhao Gongming's eyes turned red. "Disciples of the Jie Sect are being kept like livestock?!"

The Holy Mother of Golden Spirit was deathly pale and trembling all over.

Wen Zhong was even more furious: "The West! You've gone too far!"

In the video, more and more former disciples of the Jie Sect appear.

Some had their spines broken, some had their cultivation destroyed, and some were even controlled by Western secret techniques, losing all their independent consciousness.

"After the Investiture of the Gods, we thought that by submitting to the West, we could still retain a shred of dignity..." a disciple of the Intercepting Sect laughed bitterly, "Who knew...who knew that the West never treated us as human beings!"

"We were forced to 'do evil,' and then killed by their 'heroic disciples,' time and time again..."

"Some of my fellow disciples have been killed dozens of times, and each time it takes a huge amount of merit to be resurrected. And this merit has to be earned by us continuing to 'do evil'..."

"It's a vicious cycle! We've become the West's cash cow, a tool for their merit and faith!"

In the Lingxiao Palace, the immortals from the Jie Sect were completely enraged.

"The West! How cruel you are!"

"Salvation? Is this your salvation?!"

"You treat my disciples like animals?!"

The Buddha's face was extremely grim, but he dared not say a word.

Because all of this is true.

The Jade Emperor coldly looked at Buddha: "Buddha, is this your Western concept of compassion?"

---

In the scene, Su Bai's anger was no longer being contained.

"Western Buddhism, which constantly proclaims itself to be compassionate, is engaged in such despicable acts!"

"Gentlemen!" Su Bai shouted, raising his arms, "Are you willing to be kept by the West for the rest of your lives, harvested like leeks one crop after another?!"

"I'm not reconciled!"

"But what can we do? The West is powerful, we..."

"Senior Styx sacrificed his life to hold back the pursuers from Mount Ling!" Su Bai said in a deep voice, "Now is the time for us to fight back!"

"Rebel? Rebel against Mount Ling?"

"That's right!" Su Bai's eyes blazed. "What the West owes you, what it owes the Jie Sect, what it owes the Rakshasa Clan—today, we'll go and collect it all!"

Princess Iron Fan also stepped forward, raising her banana leaf fan high: "I will personally avenge the blood feud between my father and my people!"

"Charge to Mount Ling! Avenge our fallen kin!"

"Yes! Charge up Mount Ling!"

"The West owes us, and we demand they repay us a hundredfold, a thousandfold!"

In an instant, the demons from all directions were filled with righteous indignation!

Western Spirit Mountain

Guanyin Bodhisattva's face turned deathly pale: "Buddha, this deduction..."

The Buddha's expression was solemn: "Laojun's divination skills are unparalleled in the Three Realms. Since he has predicted this result, it means that it is indeed possible that this will happen in the future!"

"Then...what should we do?" Manjushri Bodhisattva panicked. "Those demons may not be strong individually, but their numbers are too great. If they really attack Mount Ling..."

"Our lives are so precious!" Bodhisattva Samantabhadra exclaimed urgently, "How can we risk our lives against those peasants?"

The Buddha pondered for a moment, then said, "Send down the order: offer amnesty!"

"Accept amnesty?"

"Indeed, offer them benefits and they'll disperse," Buddha said coldly. "As long as we maintain control over the Journey to the West, these mere demons won't be able to cause any trouble."
