Journey to the West: Upon seeing the Yellow-Eyebrowed Demon, why not pay homage?

Chapter 132 Division of Labor and Cooperation, Li Xuan of the Renjiao School! [Second Update, Please Continue Reading]

"Great Master, may I help him return to life?"

King Yama dared not ask any further questions, but instead pointed to the soul of the King of Wuji Kingdom to demonstrate his attitude.

Xuan Du thought for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "It's not the right time yet—let's pretend we were never here today, and don't tell anyone."

"Your Majesty obeys." King Yama bowed and accepted the order.

Xuandu swept away the king's soul with a wave of his sleeve, then turned to Huangmei and said, "Fellow Daoist, let's return to the mortal world first."

Huang Mei nodded: "Okay————"

Before the Hall of Yama, King Yama gazed at the departing figures of the two, but couldn't help thinking to himself:

Who is that middle-aged Taoist priest?

To be addressed as "fellow Daoist" by Xuandu, could you perhaps be a highly accomplished master of the Chan Sect?

Thinking of this, a chill ran through him.

Buddhism, the Humanistic School, and the Chan School —

How could the tiny Kingdom of Wuji become a battlefield for the three religions?

world.

Wuji Kingdom.

Xuandu, accompanied by Huangmei, instantly appeared back under the Crystal Palace corridor. Sensing Huangmei's aura, the Well Dragon King swiftly greeted them once more: "Greetings, Heavenly Official."

"Go about your business, no need to come and greet us," Xuan Du waved his hand.

"Here you are."

Without the slightest hesitation, the Dragon King of the Well turned and ran away as soon as he caught his footing, disappearing from sight in the blink of an eye.

Xuan Du silently withdrew his gaze and cast a spell to create a soundproof barrier: "Let's divide up the tasks between us."

He didn't need to mention the target at all, since it had already become an unspoken understanding between the two sides.

"How should it be allocated?" Huang Mei asked.

"Your identity makes it inconvenient for you to show your face in public, so you come to secretly manipulate the situation, causing the lion monster to make more mistakes, thereby accumulating sins."

I'll be responsible for making things escalate completely at the crucial moment.

"It's so serious that there's no room for compromise. We must give an explanation to the Daoist sect, and even to the human race, by severely punishing Manjushri," Xuandu said in a deep voice.

Huang Mei thought for a moment and said, "I need someone to teach me how to help me. Firstly, to cover my presence, and secondly, to smoothly guide the Dao Sect into the arena."

Xuan Du said, "Alright, I'll go find someone for you and have him come to the Crystal Palace to see you."

Huang Mei asked with considerable curiosity, "Who is the other party?"

"There are a few options, but it's uncertain who will come, so you'll find out when the time comes."

Xuan Du smiled and said, "By the way, I will give him the soul of the King of Wuji Kingdom so that he can bring it back to prove his identity."

Huang Mei chuckled: "Now that you mention it, I'm actually starting to look forward to it—"

Not long after.

After Xuandu vanished in a flash of light, Huangmei silently collected the body of the King of Wuji Kingdom, turned around and found the Well Dragon King, asking him to arrange a quiet room for him. While waiting for his assistant from the Human Sect, he plotted how to deepen the guilt of the Lion Demon and Manjushri, so that it would be easier for Xuandu to launch an attack.

the other side.

Meanwhile, Xuandu rode the wind and arrived at the entrance of the Dangshan Cave in an instant, laughing and calling out, "Where is Li Xuan?"

Who is it?

As soon as he finished speaking, a handsome and imposing man in white stepped out of the cave and looked up at him.

"Do you still recognize me?" Xuan Du asked.

Li Xuan's eyes shone brightly, even burning with desire, and he bowed deeply: "Greetings, Grand Master Xuandu."

Xuandu said, "Haven't you always wanted to join the Human Sect? I can introduce you to a master, but I need you to do one thing for me after we've confirmed our master-disciple relationship."

Li Xuan hurriedly replied, "As long as I can join the Human Sect, let alone one thing, even ten or a hundred, I am willing to do my best to accomplish them."

Xuandu chuckled and said, "Very well, come with me to see Master."

three days later.

Having obtained the status of Laozi's disciple, Li Xuan put away the king's soul and joyfully rushed to the octagonal glazed well in Wuji Kingdom, stopping in front of the Crystal Palace: "Master Jia, where is Master Jia?"

The Dragon King of the Well responded and went outside, asking, "What business do you have with Master Jia?"

Li Xuan silently summoned the king's spirit and said with a smile, "It was my senior brother who sent me."

The Dragon King of the Well glanced at the king's soul, now reduced to a mere token, and turned to say, "Come with me."

A moment later, the group of three arrived outside the quiet room, only to find the door open, from which came a voice: "Thank you for your trouble, Dragon King."

"No need for that, no need for that," the Well Dragon King said with a smile. "You two chat, I'll take my leave."

"This Taoist priest in white, come in and speak; by the way, bring the king's soul with you." The voice rang out again.

Li Xuan immediately led the king's soul into the room. Looking up, he saw a Taoist priest in green sitting cross-legged on the bed, exuding an air of otherworldly grace and possessing an impressive appearance.

"Li Xuan, a disciple of the Human Sect, greets Daoist Jia."

"No need for such formalities."

Yellow Eyebrows smiled in response, then looked at the king's spirit: "How do you feel about this journey?"

The king's spirit suddenly knelt down: "Please, Taoist priest, save me."

"Why should I save you?" Huang Mei asked.

The king said, "If the Taoist priest is willing to save my life and help me restore my kingdom, I am willing to share royal power and enjoy the same offerings with the Taoist priest."

Huang Mei shook his head: "Leaving aside whether I need what you're saying, you now know that Manjushri Bodhisattva is behind that demon. To save you, you'd have to offend the Bodhisattva. Do you think it's worth it?"

The king opened his mouth but remained silent, only shedding tears in silence.

"Alright, alright, stop crying. I can offend the Bodhisattva for you, but you can't just do nothing and wait to benefit." Huang Mei changed the subject, giving the other party hope again.

The king hurriedly said, "Immortal, what can I do?"

"Do you know what bargaining chips you still have?" Huang Mei asked.

The king thought and thought, then shook his head and said, "I've already lost my life, I really can't think of any other bargaining chips."

"Your identity is your last bargaining chip," Huang Mei said with a smile, then looked at Li Xuan: "Do you know magic?"

Li Xuan nodded and said, "Yes!"

"Alright, go find the Crown Prince now and find a way to bring him here so that father and son can be reunited," Huang Mei instructed.

Li Xuan was well aware of his current position, so he didn't ask any further questions and simply cupped his hands in greeting, saying, "As you command."

After seeing Master Li off, the King of Wuji Kingdom couldn't help but ask, "Master, why did you bring my son here?"

""

"Of course, we should tell him the whole truth and then use his identity to do something," Huang Mei said.

The King of Wuji Kingdom pressed, "What are you doing? Daoist priest, he's no match for that evil sorcerer!"

Huang Mei laughed and said, "Don't worry, I won't let him fight against the demonic path. I just want him to use his status as the crown prince to build a Laozi Temple in the capital of Wuji Kingdom and invite the Ren Sect to officially enter the sect."

You should know that the person you have offended is Manjushri Bodhisattva, one of the four great Bodhisattvas of the present-day Buddhist lineage.

Only by upholding morality and inviting the celestial beings of the Human Sect to uphold justice can we contend with them.

Otherwise, do you expect me to fight against Manjushri Bodhisattva?

Upon hearing this, the King of Wuji Kingdom recalled Xuandu's identity and a sense of enlightenment gradually arose in his heart.

The core of this move can be summed up in eight words: occupy the moral high ground and have a legitimate reason for attacking!
