Chapter 521 Some people need to be pampered
Longji was summoned by the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother. After learning the requests of the two supreme beings, he did not say much and obediently took the orders and left.
The three gods in the imperial study were eagerly waiting for her to bring Taibai Jinxing back.
Long Ji was a sword immortal, and his flying speed was several times faster than Taibai Jinxing. In less than an hour, he turned his sword into a rainbow and arrived at the Shenxiao Thunder Region.
In the projection of the circular light technique, Princess Longji walked into the Leicheng prison. Without any hindrance, she was led by General Lei to Wen Rui.
As the Queen Mother expected, the two of them had indeed become familiar with each other while working together recently. They exchanged a few words when they met, and the atmosphere seemed quite harmonious.
"I have heard from the fairies that Wen Rui is obviously better to female fairies than male fairies, and because he punished Li Tianwang in public, he is well-received by the fairies and is known as the 'Friend of the Fairies'. There are also rumors that he is a lustful person, or even a lustful devil."
The Queen Mother commented as she watched the projection: "It makes sense. For a dandy boy like him from a noble family who has spent a long time in the Lishan Immortal Sect, which is full of seductive women, it would be a problem if he wasn't lustful."
As the matter was confidential, the Jade Emperor did not call upon the god of hearing to assist him, and he could not hear any sound.
In the picture, Wen Rui's attitude was indeed very good, and he could be described as being amiable. Princess Longji was smiling like a flower, and the two of them were talking and laughing, and it seemed that everything was going smoothly.
The Jade Emperor stroked his beard and nodded, "Very good, it turns out that this traitor also has weaknesses."
Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara watched coldly. He had witnessed with his own eyes how Wen Rui resisted the Pure Land Mandala of Mahamati Bodhisattva with incredibly strong will. He really didn't think that Wen Rui would be tempted by beauty.
But it is obvious that Wen Rui has not yet achieved Buddhahood, and he must be a sentient being with impure six senses and troubles, but the Bodhisattva cannot see through what his ultimate desire is.
Is it boundless fame, supreme accomplishment, or ultimate enjoyment?
It seems that neither of them...
"It seems that the negotiations went smoothly. Long Ji will be able to bring Li Qing's family back soon. Then we can ask Li Qing's family... Wait, what is she doing?"
The Jade Emperor looked closely and saw, in the projection of the circular light technique, Wen Rui took out the third white silk from his arms and handed it to Princess Longji. Princess Longji excitedly took the white silk and walked towards Taibai Jinxing hanging on the Locking Immortal Pillar.
As the other party begged desperately, he cruelly swung the white silk and whipped him hard...
The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother looked at each other, both held their foreheads helplessly, and sighed together.
"Unfilial daughter, none of these girls are worry-free!"
"Poor Li Qingjia, I did something bad with good intentions, and ended up hurting him badly..."
Yueying and Yunjiang focused on interrogating the monks. They were deceived by Wenrui and thought that the Arhats knew the whereabouts of their sisters, and were anxious to pry the information out of them.
Therefore, the white silk fell on the Arhat ten times, and only occasionally took care of Taibai Jinxing one or two times.
Princess Longji had no idea what Rui said, so she only beat Taibai Jinxing, increasing the pain he endured by more than ten times.
The old immortal rolled his eyes, foamed at the mouth, and felt like dying of ecstasy...
This time, the two supreme beings in heaven were completely at a loss. The person they sent to rescue was their own daughter. They thought nothing would go wrong, but she surrendered to the enemy and became an accomplice instead.
This daughter was originally very rebellious. Her temperament changed a lot after the great calamity of the Conferred God. But she learned bad things with great difficulty. It has only been a few years since she met Wen Rui, and she has become rebellious again.
The Jade Emperor went through all the people he could think of, and was sad to find that although he was the king of all immortals, he didn't have a single loyal, diligent, capable person around him. The capable ones were all rebellious, and the obedient ones were all useless. Guanyin Bodhisattva was still sitting nearby, and the Jade Emperor couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He smiled bitterly and said, "I really can't do anything about that traitor. It's not uncommon for the Heavenly Court to have no immortals to use. Otherwise, the saints wouldn't have planned to confer gods and recruit immortals to be on the list to respond to the calamity."
He sighed, "It's a pity that the Conferred God Tribulation has not been completed. The 365 Fuqing gods on the list are not willing to serve the Heavenly Court. It has only been a short 500 years since the Great Tribulation, and I have not been able to revive the government and make the immortals serve me."
After laying the groundwork, the Jade Emperor said, "Venerable Guanyin, I will write you a handwritten note. You can do whatever you want..."
The Jade Emperor's helplessness lies in the fact that if he takes action personally, it would not be difficult to capture Wen Rui, let alone rescue Taibai Jinxing.
But if he took action, it would be too embarrassing.
It's like a dog bites a person, and the person bites back, and the emperor's majesty is completely lost.
If Wen Rui escapes after he makes his move, he will lose all face. From now on, when he sits on the throne in Lingxiao Palace, all the immortals will lose their respect for him and will even pretend to obey him but actually disobey him.
What's more, none of the great gods standing behind Wen Rui is much worse than him. If he bullies the weak, disrupts social order and loses the law, those gods don't have to be polite and talk to him about the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects.
Bodhisattva Guanyin shook his head and smiled, "Forget it. It is impossible to do anything. Even if the five hundred Arhats were destined to have this calamity, Wen Rui is their karma and retribution. I only hope that after experiencing this calamity, the Arhats can comprehend the profound truth and be more determined than before."
It's not stupid. How could it possibly step forward and bring bad luck to a troublesome person that neither the Jade Emperor nor the Queen Mother can handle?
The last time I met Wen Rui at Huanxi Zen Temple, I knew how strong this man's will was. Falling into the Avici Hell was like going home. He was so cruel to himself, let alone dealing with his enemies and opponents.
The Bodhisattva knows how to make a decision when necessary. The accomplished Buddhist master is very good at letting go of his attachments. He stood up and said goodbye to the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, and flew to Lingshan on the lotus platform without any attempts to keep him.
When Guanyin was sent to the Heavenly Palace, it was rare for her to return empty-handed. Whether as the Taoist master Cihang of the Chan school or as the Bodhisattva Guanyin of the Western school, she made enormous contributions to the Heavenly Palace's cause of deifying gods.
The current team of eight righteous gods in heaven was established through the joint efforts of the orthodox and western religions at the cost of destroying the evil religion.
The Jade Emperor was grateful for this favor and often responded to requests from Western religions. He also wanted to use the power of Western religions to suppress the gods from the Jie Religion in Heaven.
However, the Heavenly Court now has a leader like Wen Rui who represents the group of immortals of Jiejiao. On the way back to Lingshan, Guanyin was thinking all the way, and the more she thought about it, the more difficult it became, just like the mood when the army that was leading the attack on King Zhou was intercepted by Wen Zhong's army, and the future was bleak with heavy casualties.
Last time, many saints assisted and the final victory was achieved without any moral principles. This time, although there are many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the Western Religion, there are no more saints. Can the vision of the prosperity of the Western Religion in the future be realized?
……
After seeing off Guanyin Bodhisattva, the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother felt a little embarrassed. They felt ashamed and had lost respect in front of their allies.
"such a pity……"
The Jade Emperor sighed, "Even Bodhisattva Guanyin retreated when she realized the difficulty. It shows that Wenrui is a person that even Bodhisattvas have a headache about, but he cannot be used by me."
The Queen Mother frowned and advised: "The way to be a king is to know people. If you just guard against suppression, mediocre people will succumb to the majesty of the imperial power and obey orders. But people with ambitions cannot be intimidated by coercion. Perhaps Your Majesty should treat people differently and change the way he controls Wen Rui."
The Jade Emperor spread out his hands and said, "It is precisely because I don't know what he wants that I have to be wary of him. If I knew what he likes, even if it means grabbing the moon and picking the stars, I can satisfy him. Why worry about not being able to use him?"
