Chapter 402: Chapter 51: Giving a Ben Bo’Erba to Nuwa

After a moment of thought, Lu Xuan gave him a slight nod. He then gracefully rose to his feet. As he accepted the memories of the Profound Origin Blessing Incarnation, he glanced sideways and said,

"I’ve slept for a month and a half and benefited greatly. Now, looking upon you, Jingguan Palace Master, I feel as though a lifetime has passed."

Qing Xuan Daoist nodded with a smile.

"Having just woken up, Lu Ancestor must have many things to do, correct?"

"Of course."

Lu Xuan glanced at the Fish Basket beside him and the well-behaved Little Catfish inside.

Then, as if narrating to Qing Xuan yet also organizing his own thoughts, he continued,

"The great age is upon us, and the limits of heaven and earth will soon be undone. There are many things to be done. I plan to take a trip to the Great Wall, slay some creatures, and issue some warnings..."

"But before that, I should be getting married. Will Daoist Qing Xuan be able to attend?"

Lu Xuan decided to cut the Gordian knot. ’For the past hundred-odd years, Little Peach Spirit has been incredibly clingy. Whether I’m going to the Netherworld to meet with Fengdu, visiting the North Sea to find the Kunpeng, or seeking out Shakyamuni Buddha to discuss the Dao... Little Peach Spirit shamelessly insists on tagging along. The most crucial part is, the little one is exceptionally talented and can get along wonderfully with anyone... And in turn, I’m gradually starting to see her as a little sister... That can’t happen! This was supposed to be a destined marriage, but it’s been one twist after another. First, it nearly turned into a father-daughter relationship, and now it’s trending toward a brother-sister bond...’

At this, Qing Xuan Daoist sighed softly.

"I should not refuse your invitation, Lu Ancestor, but I truly cannot leave the Guangcheng Daoist Palace. I hope you will forgive me."

"Is that so?"

Lu Xuan didn’t press for a reason. Instead, an idea came to him and he said with a smile,

"How about I hold my wedding here in the Daoist Palace? Would that be acceptable?"

Qing Xuan Daoist was clearly taken aback. Emotion and joy seemed to flicker across his blurry face as he nodded and replied,

"There is no reason why not!"

Lu Xuan clapped his hands and smiled, his decision made. After chatting idly with Qing Xuan Daoist for a little while longer, he picked up the Fish Basket and asked,

"This Little Catfish, it hasn’t caused any trouble, has it?"

Inside the Fish Basket, the Catfish shuddered. A bitter feeling washed over it. ’Trouble?’

’I’d love to cause some, but would I dare?!’

’It recalled the scene from that day. The Evil Buddha had reached down his hand, his Immortal might bearing down on the entire world. But what was the result??’

’This Daoist... he just blew a single breath. That one breath obliterated the Immortal arm that had been pressing down from the heavens and nailed Grandpa Sha back into the void!’

’That kind of power...’

Ben Bo’Erba shivered violently again.

Meanwhile, Qing Xuan Daoist just smiled lightly, shaking his head as he said,

"This little fish has been very docile and obedient. Nothing out of the ordinary."

"Is that so?"

Lu Xuan grew pensive, making a mental note about Qing Xuan Daoist. ’The problem with this man... is immense!’

Without dwelling on it, Lu Xuan bid farewell to Qing Xuan Daoist, picked up the Fish Basket, and left the Guangcheng Daoist Palace. He headed straight for the edge of the Kongtong Mountain Range. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

’Time to see the Lady, and have a proper chat with His Majesty the Celestial Emperor.’

.........

「In a rift in the Current World.」

The Three-Faced Evil Buddha’s shattered arm had barely healed. The White Dragon wore a grave expression.

"That creature, who was it??"

"I didn’t get a clear look."

The Three-Faced Evil Buddha said in a low voice,

"He was shrouded in the mists of Chaos; I couldn’t see his face at all. But his power was absurd. I suspect he’s a peak Immortal, maybe even has one foot in the Celestial Realms."

The White Dragon, who had lost two horns, also fell into deep thought.

"I suspect he might be a contingency left behind by some great figure from the Ancient Times. The waters of the Current World run deep. When the various factions left the Great Heaven and Earth back then, many of those Existences left behind contingencies."

It paused, let out a murky breath, and added,

"Are your injuries healed yet? Once they are, we can continue our fight. This enmity for my broken horns... I must have my revenge!"

All three pairs of the Three-Faced Evil Buddha’s eyes rolled upwards. He pouted and said,

"Little White Dragon, give it a rest. You can’t beat me. Besides, what’s wrong with taking a little loss? Let your big brother tell you, suffering a loss is a blessing in disguise..."

"Then why don’t you suffer a bit more of it?!" the White Dragon shot back, his whiskers bristling and eyes wide. The Three-Faced Evil Buddha chuckled slyly. Just as he was about to say something more, the expressions of both the Buddha and the dragon changed abruptly.

They both looked to the side in unison. They saw a great fluctuation arise in this rift between worlds. The sound of surging tides echoed, accompanied by an immense might!

"Another one of the Immortals and Buddhas is forcing an early return!" Sha Wujing’s three Buddha faces all changed color in alarm. Sensing the terrifying fluctuation, he said, his heart pounding,

"An aura of this level..."

The next moment, a heavily wounded Immortal emerged from the void. He was clad in Battle Armor, but the Armor was shattered, and he was still coughing up blood!

"It’s you!" the Three-Faced Evil Buddha cried out in alarm. The White Dragon trembled, turned, and fled frantically.

The Wounded Immortal frowned slightly, raised a hand to channel the light of the Great Buddha, and rebuked,

"Virtuous Celestial Dragon, you betrayed Spirit Mountain. How dare you show yourself before me now?"

As he spoke, the Wounded Immortal slowly pointed a finger. The great void trembled, stirring up terrifying waves and revealing many visions of destruction.

An immortal melody full of Weapons and Slaughter began to play, followed by a great Brahma Sound that roared like a Furious Vajra.

The immortal melody and the Brahma Sound intertwined, tearing at the distant True Dragon until it coughed up mouthfuls of blood. Its scales shattered inch by inch. Then, several dangerous rays of Buddha light pierced through the void and struck down!

The White Dragon’s body was pierced by the rays of Buddha light, and Dragon Blood gushed out. This was nothing like his fight with the Three-Faced Evil Buddha where they were both holding back. The newly arrived Immortal’s single attack had nearly cost it its life!

Seeing that the Wounded Immortal was about to strike again, the Three-Faced Evil Buddha grew anxious. He cried out urgently, his voice bordering on a plea,

"Supreme Venerable, just let it go, let it go..."

The Wounded Immortal glanced at the Three-Faced Evil Buddha and snorted coldly.

"Still sentimental about old ties? I will report this matter to the Buddha Mother and the Immortal Mother. They will be the ones to judge your crimes."
