Chapter 530: Dispatching troops to Lingshan
The Happy Arhat had a strange look on his face, but he concealed it well and said calmly, "I am here as an envoy to the Heavenly Palace, naturally following the Buddha's command..."
Wen Rui didn't even need to activate the lie detection AI to determine that he was not telling the truth. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Think carefully. If you commit verbal sins in front of the gods and the Jade Emperor, even if you are an arhat, you will inevitably go to the hell of tongue-pulling."
"I have not committed any verbal offense. There are three Buddhas in my religion..."
"Oh..." Wen Rui suddenly realized, and said: "So that's it, it really wasn't Tathagata's intention. Even if he was confused, Guanyin would have reminded him in time."
"The Maitreya Buddha had long understood the Dharma Ending Age. When he was in power, there were probably not many good people in your religion. When there were too many lice, they were not afraid of being bitten. They would never care about those movies and TV shows that exposed the dark side of things."
Wen Rui thought for a moment and said, "Then the one who sent you here must be the Buddha Dipankara, the ancient Buddha of the past, right?"
Having been exposed in front of him, the Happy Arhat no longer tried to hide his lies and said confidently, "This is the decree of the Buddha in the past. The Buddha Dipamkara said that if we allow you to instigate believers to smear our religion, people's hearts will not be as good as before and the world will go downhill. If the evil thoughts in Jambudvīpa are not eliminated, it will become the most evil place in the three realms. It will be too late and the Dharma will not be able to save people."
"Randeng Tiao, old dog, the meaning of his existence has long been gone since the Conferred God Tribulation. Why is he unwilling to quietly wait for extinction in a dark corner and dare to come out and jump around?"
When Wen Rui heard the word "Ran Deng", his expression suddenly became sinister, and he spoke word by word: "In the past, Buddha managed the present, worried about the future, and reached out to the heavens...
He turned to the Jade Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, has the Heaven Court fallen to such a state? The mascot of Lingshan dared to interfere in the internal affairs of the Heaven Court, and sent a little Arhat who knew nothing to point fingers in the Lingxiao Palace and frame the important officials of the Heaven Court. You are not qualified to be the Second Jade Master now. If we arrange the seats, you should be the Fourth Jade Master..."
With a sarcastic tone, Wen Rui said jokingly, "There are many Buddhas in Lingshan. In addition to arranging them in chronological order, there are also five Buddhas arranged according to directions. So your ranking will have to be a little further back."
Even though the Jade Emperor was very shrewd, he couldn't hold back after being insulted, and his expression became increasingly ugly.
As a person in power, the importance of supporting slanderous ministers in the court was reflected at this moment. Being publicly attacked by a traitor like Wen Rui, he could only remain calm even though he was extremely angry.
After all, throughout history, except for some absurd small courts, there have been cases of emperors and their ministers fighting in the Golden Palace.
In this situation, if the Jade Emperor wins, it will be embarrassing. If he loses... just change the opponent...
His right-hand men, Li Jing and Taibai Jinxing, who he had worked hard to support for many years, were too incompetent. After all, you can't have your cake and eat it too. An immortal with real abilities will never serve as a dog for anyone.
These two useless henchmen are now trembling in their calves when they see Wen Rui.
Li Jing’s pagoda was lost, and his son was about to be lost too—his soul was taken away by that evil game.
Taibai Jinxing was even more miserable, having lost both her moral integrity and chastity.
As a result, the Jade Emperor felt like a lone man in the court, and no one in the court, civil or military, stood up to rebuke Wen Rui for him.
Of course, the Jade Emperor had to agree with part of Wen Rui's statement. The Western religion was indeed a bit too much. If it was Guanyin Bodhisattva who came back this time, then their identities were still equal and it was a diplomatic inquiry under equal conditions.
An arhat has arrived, and he was sent by the Buddha from the past. It seems that he no longer regards the Jade Emperor as a reliable resource.
"Your Majesty, the Buddha of the Past was the first to be deified five hundred years ago. The current structure of the Heavenly Court is entirely due to the efforts of the Ancient Buddha."
Seeing the Jade Emperor's expression change, Happy Arhat said hurriedly: "The ancient Buddha is wholeheartedly concerned about the Heavenly Court, the Western Church, and all sentient beings in the three realms, and has absolutely no other intentions. Wen Rui, the traitor, has an extremely sinister plot and is worthy of death. On the one hand, he slanders the Buddha and destroys the Dharma, confusing people's minds, and on the other hand, he destroys the diplomatic relations between the Heavenly Court and the Lingshan Mountain, splits the two levels of the righteous path, and creates disasters." "If we don't get rid of this thief, cut off his followers, and clean up the evil atmosphere in the world, a catastrophe is bound to come, and it is unstoppable!"
Wen Rui listened at the side, his expression unchanged, but he was a little nervous.
The old man, the Buddha of Burning Lamp, had a good eye and really saw through Wen Rui's bad intentions.
That's right, he has bad intentions. He hopes that the Heaven and Lingshan will fight each other, and then the demons from the Earth will invade, so that the entire Three Realms will be in chaos.
This kind of thinking seems to be something only a villain should have.
Fortunately, the one who discovered his evil ambitions was an old man, not a passionate young man, otherwise the gears of fate would have started to turn, and his end might not have been very good.
“It’s alarmist and inexplicable.”
Wen Rui shook his head and said, "You Western religions like to make up horror stories to scare people. You say that if you do evil you will go to hell, and if you don't realize it you will be trapped in the cycle of reincarnation forever. Anyway, if you don't believe it, you deserve to die, right?"
"This set of rhetoric may be enough to scare ignorant mortals, but to scare gods like us, do you really think we are a bunch of fools?"
"Isn't that obvious enough?"
Wen Rui counted on his fingers and listed them one by one: "First of all, the people who filmed these videos were the evil offspring you taught the Happy Sect to create. They are giving you retribution in this life. It is the cycle of cause and effect. Retribution will come. Instead of reflecting on it, you are randomly passing the buck and putting the blame on me."
"Secondly, the content related to Western religions in the film is all taken from reality and has real prototypes, and has not been distorted."
"You are allowed to do it, but others are not allowed to tell others about it? Why, you Western religions don't punish people who tell lies, but only punish those who tell the truth?"
"In the end, it is obvious that there is a problem within your sect. The scum of Buddhism is harming sentient beings in the name of Buddha. The Dharma Ending Age will come."
"Instead of resolving your own problems, you shifted the conflicts to Heaven, asking Heaven to pay for your problems in order to ease the conflicts and delay the arrival of the Dharma Ending. You are treating Heaven, your ally, as a vassal that you can exploit at will."
After finishing the list, Wen Rui said sternly, "Who is the one who deserves to be killed? The ancient Buddha Randeng relied on his trickery and opportunism to get a high position as the executive vice-Buddha. He is not worthy of the position. It would be fine if he didn't just act as a good mascot, but he even has the nerve to take credit for himself and dare to sit on the Jade Emperor's head and shit. Even if the Jade Emperor can tolerate it, loyal ministers and brave generals like me definitely can't tolerate it!"
At this point, Wen Rui turned to the Jade Emperor, with a look of loyalty: "Your Majesty, the ancient Buddha Dipankara openly insulted you, how can you tolerate it? I beg you to kill this thief and sacrifice the flag, lead the army to attack Lingshan, persuade Tathagata, and capture the ancient Buddha Dipankara to kneel down and admit his fault in the Lingxiao Palace! So that those bald donkeys in the West can figure out who is the boss in the three realms!"
The Happy Arhat was horrified and said in astonishment: "You, are you crazy? If there is a war between the Heavenly Palace and the Holy Mountain, the Three Realms will be in disaster!"
Wen Rui narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Yes, don't you claim to be compassionate and kind to all living beings? What we believe in is that the way of heaven is ruthless and we regard all things as straw dogs. It's super cruel. Good people in this world should be pointed at with guns. So when our army arrives, you should just admit your mistakes and tie up Randeng and hand him over. Then won't the world be peaceful?"
"If you dare to fight back, you will be entering the Dharma Ending Age. Don't call yourself a moral role model anymore. Change your doctrine right now."
At this point, he turned to the Jade Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I am confident that we will win. If the Western Religion dares to start a war, it will tear apart its hypocritical disguise and destroy the foundation of its religion. If you hand over Ran Deng, you can save the people of the Three Realms. If Ran Deng is really a good person, he will take the initiative to tie himself up and sacrifice himself to quell the war."
"Now there is an opportunity for the East to overwhelm the West before you. I will fight for your title of the boss of the Three Realms. I am just waiting for your words!"
