Chapter 130: Chapter 130 Get Lost

Tongming Hall.

The Jade Emperor was receiving visitors from the Western Buddha Sect, and the visitors were still Buddha Jialyusun and the Golden Cicada.

The two monks paid their respectful greetings, "We pay our respects to His Majesty the Jade Emperor."

The Jade Emperor ignored them, engrossed in carefully flipping through a booklet in his hands.

Seeing this, Taibai Venus also initially left them hanging for a while before, stroking his beard with a smile, he said, "Please wait a moment, His Majesty is examining Moluo’s past experiences."

Moluo?

Buddha Jialyusun and the Golden Cicada exchanged glances, the former shocked, the latter puzzled.

The Tongming Hall was deadly silent as the Jade Emperor meticulously perused the booklet page by page; after finishing, he asked Buddha Jialyusun, "Does the Buddha Sect have a Bodhisattva by the name of Jinna Luo?"

Buddha Jialyusun quickly replied, "Yes, Jinna Luo was originally a disciple of the Western teachings. He was quite talented. After Buddha Dipankara took over the West, Jinna Luo was appointed as a Great Protector of the Buddha Sect. However, he later violated the Buddha Sect’s precepts and rules and was expelled from the Buddha Sect by Buddha Dipankara."

The Jade Emperor tossed the booklet to Buddha Jialyusun with a cold laugh, "So this was your good doing!"

Buddha Jialyusun’s expression changed, and he hastily caught the booklet. Although he knew what the Jade Emperor was referring to, he still pretended to seriously flip through it attentively.

The booklet recorded the life and experiences of Moluo in clear detail.

This included Jinna Luo, under orders from Buddha Dipankara, heading to the southern part of Western Niu Hezhou to spread the teachings, only to be later expelled from the Buddha Sect and fall into the demonic path, eventually becoming a Demon Lord.

The problem, however, was that Jinna Luo becoming a demon was a secret of the Buddha Sect; how could the Jade Emperor know this?

Buddha Jialyusun couldn’t understand, and after seriously reviewing the booklet in his hands, he formally said, "Your Majesty, this matter is of great significance. I will have to report it to Buddha Dipankara once I return to Mount Ling."

The Jade Emperor’s intent was to warn rather than to relentlessly pursue, so he nodded slightly, "I hope the Buddha Sect is not a place harboring filth; aside from this Moluo, there is also the Taoist Lu Ya. What is his relationship with the Buddha Sect?"

Buddha Jialyusun did not dare hesitate and quickly said, "Your Majesty, the purpose of my visit is to follow Buddha Tathagata’s orders to explain this matter to you, to dispel any misunderstandings.

Taoist Lu Ya did indeed join the West in the past, and his good corpse became a Zen Master Wuchao.

We all thought he was in secluded cultivation of Buddhist Law, but to our surprise, he conspired with the demonic cult, a grave sin!

Fortunately, Your Majesty’s wisdom has allowed the discovery of his crimes and the punishment of his wrongdoing, preventing him from causing greater disaster.

The Buddha has said that our Buddha Sect will also make every effort to investigate Taoist Lu Ya and capture him to demonstrate the righteousness of heaven and earth."

The Jade Emperor watched him with an indifferent expression, only tapping the desk before him.

Taibai Venus waved his horsetail whisk and said, "Buddha Jialyusun may have left something out. Why bother with a difficult investigation when the Buddha of the Great Sun isn’t just another incarnation of Taoist Lu Ya’s Three Corpses?"

Buddha Jialyusun hurriedly said, "Please do not misunderstand, be assured, Your Majesty, the Buddha of the Great Sun is a venerable and revered monk of our Buddha Sect, with absolutely no connection to Taoist Lu Ya."

Taibai Venus smiled and said, "If that is the case, why not have the Buddha of the Great Sun come for an audience?"

Buddha Jialyusun explained, "Without intending to deceive Your Majesty, the Buddha of the Great Sun has long since entered closed-door cultivation, please forgive us."

The Jade Emperor remained silent.

Taibai Venus scoffed and said, "His Majesty says, what a fine closed-door cultivation; you may leave!"

Buddha Jialyusun paid another respectful salute but did not leave immediately. Instead, he requested, "Your Majesty, the honored Golden Cicada wishes to study in the Heavenly Court, we seek your gracious permission."

Taibai Venus discreetly glanced over and saw that His Majesty had already closed his eyes; he coughed and said, "Do you not see me here?"

Buddha Jialyusun instantly became anxious and fearful, "Your Majesty’s heavenly might terrifies us, there is not the slightest disrespect!"

The Golden Cicada also followed suit, bringing his hands together and bowing.

Taibai Venus waved his horsetail whisk again, stroking his beard as he said, "Leave!"

Buddha Jialyusun and the Golden Cicada dared not linger, hastily taking their leave.

Only then did the Jade Emperor open his eyes, his gaze like the swirling of the Milky Way, he glanced at Taibai Venus, "Did I tell you to tell them to leave?"

Tai Bai Jin Xing said in a panicked voice, "Your servant is at fault!"

His Majesty the Jade Emperor stood up, with his hands clasped behind his back, looked toward the west, and laughed, "Well, it’s good that he’s gone. Listening to lies always grows tiresome."

Tai Bai Jin Xing sighed in relief and said no more.

However, he knew that Sun Buddha and Golden Cicada most likely hadn’t left so swiftly.

Since they spoke of a pilgrimage, Golden Cicada would surely stay.

And Sun Buddha was likely to go around the Heavenly Court to persuade others, as His Majesty had this time, with the affair of Moluo and Taoist Lu Ya, put the Buddha Sect under great pressure.

Moreover, the one from the North Pole had already grown restless.

Previously in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, the situation was so clear, yet Ji Shuqian of the esteemed stars still dared to speak out in defense of Taoist Lu Ya, revealing his true intentions.

Thinking of this, Tai Bai Jin Xing once again praised His Majesty’s sage wisdom in his heart for timely appointing Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, as the Celestial Venerable of the North Pole, having this sharp blade might indeed deliver a fatal blow to them.

Of course, this would require the right opportunity, and one must not rush.

"Hmm?" Suddenly, the Jade Emperor turned around to look toward the north.

Tai Bai Jin Xing also followed his gaze and said with a laugh, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, the opportunity has arrived."

...

After the two monks left the Tongming Hall, they headed for the North Pole of the Heavenly Court.

Along the way, Golden Cicada hesitated several times, but still could not help asking, "Sun Buddha, the Heavenly Emperor clearly does not want us to stay, so why not just leave the Heavenly Court?"

Sun Buddha replied with a tranquil smile, "Did His Majesty issue a decree ordering us to leave?"

Golden Cicada frowned and thought for a moment, "No, he didn’t."

Sun Buddha laughed and said, "Well, there you go, no rejection means acceptance!"

Golden Cicada seemed thoughtful.

Sun Buddha continued, "Besides, the pilgrimage in the Heavenly Court is a task entrusted to you by Buddha Dipankara with repeated exhortations, which shows the high expectations he has for you.

You should have this thought in mind, no matter what difficulties and slanders you encounter, you must do your utmost to complete it.

This is the bearing that a disciple of our Buddha Sect should have."

Golden Cicada nodded solemnly, "Amitabha, I understand now."

Sun Buddha smiled contentedly, "Then let’s start with Sun Wukong. He should be the most interesting one in the Heavenly Court right now. You should humbly ask him for guidance."

Golden Cicada was about to agree when, suddenly, he and Sun Buddha both looked up toward the north.

The two monks were both surprised, as they were just talking about Sun Wukong, and they hadn’t expected to see him so soon.

"This shouldn’t be, how could the Ziwei Great Emperor be so reckless and give him a handle?" Sun Buddha questioned in doubt.

Then the two hastened their pace and hurried toward the north.

In the north of the Heavenly Court, in the starry sky above the Ziwei Star.

After Yuan Hong pointed out which palace it was, Sun Wukong wanted to go over.

However, a squad of patrolling celestial soldiers from the Ziwei Star came forward, with the leading Patrolling Heavenly General shouting, "This is the dwelling of the Ziwei Great Emperor, all who approach must stop!"

Yuan Hong slapped the leader with his hand, "Are your dog eyes blind? Do you not recognize the Celestial Venerable of the North Pole?"

Sun Wukong, with his hands behind his back, putting on airs, flashed his figure and headed straight for the Sun Star Lord Mansion above the Ziwei Star.

Yuan Hong and Deng Jiugong followed closely behind.

The Patrolling Heavenly General did not dare to hesitate and hurriedly pounded the rallying drum, summoning all the celestial soldiers on the Ziwei Star.
