#1383 - Chechi Kingdom, no need to worship gods and Buddhas

It is said that the arrival of Tang Sanzang and his companions had already reached the palace.

Within the royal palace of Chechi Kingdom, the king sat upon his throne with a deep frown. His face, square and imposing, usually radiated authority, but at this moment, it was etched with worry.

"The arrival of Tang Sanzang and his group is likely the final ultimatum from the Western Paradise. They have always wanted to establish the Western Religion as the state religion, thereby controlling my Chechi Kingdom."

"How can mortal bodies resist the divine? This Tang Sanzang and his entourage are probably people from the Western Paradise as well. They come with ill intentions, ill intentions indeed!"

"What should I do? Chechi Kingdom barely survived the twenty-year drought. Now, if we are to establish the Western Religion as the state religion, wouldn't we become like many countries in Xiniu Hezhou, where the people live in misery?"

"If it really comes to that, how can I have the face to face my ancestors!"

The King of Chechi Kingdom sighed inwardly, unable to think of any way to cope.

He only knew that the Western Religion was definitely not a good thing. At least, among the Western Religion followers in Chechi Kingdom, not a single one was wholeheartedly for the people.

On the contrary, those few national preceptors who seemed to have some demonic aura were actually willing to pray for rain for Chechi Kingdom, relieving the twenty-year drought.

The King of Chechi Kingdom, able to uphold the nation and serve the people in Xiniu Hezhou, was naturally not a pedantic person.

He knew very well that so-called good and evil never depended on race, identity, or status.

Even within the Buddhist sect, there were demonic monks who devoured people without spitting out bones.

Even among the demon race, there were kind-hearted demons who enjoyed doing good deeds.

Therefore, even though the king knew that the three national preceptors were not simple, after a long period of observation, the king found that the three national preceptors were much better than those bald donkeys in the country before!

The three national preceptors not only solved the country's drought, but also, who knows where they got so many methods, they were actually able to bring in many wild animals from the outside willing to help Chechi Kingdom cultivate farmland.

Chechi Kingdom suffered a twenty-year drought. After a long drought, there was a sweet rain, and with the help of the three national preceptors' many methods, it was able to recover so quickly.

The king's gratitude to the three national preceptors was beyond words.

But now, at the thought that the Western Paradise probably couldn't bear it any longer and was about to come and issue a final ultimatum, the king felt worried.

The king did not think that the three national preceptors could resist the powerful pressure of the Western Religion.

Although he did not know the struggle between gods and Buddhas, how many countries in the entire Xiniu Hezhou could escape the control of the Western Paradise?

These three national preceptors were just a gift of fate, fleeting in an instant, and Chechi Kingdom was finally about to face its greatest crisis!

The king suddenly remembered that the three monks were here to exchange official documents, and he made up his mind to simply not meet them, give them the official documents, and let them leave quickly?

Just as the king was entangled and worried, he suddenly saw a eunuch coming to report: "The three national preceptors have arrived."

The king hurriedly put away the official documents, quickly stepped down from the dragon throne, ordered the close attendants to set up embroidered stools, and bowed to welcome them.

He saw the three great immortals swaggering in, followed by a pair of little boys with disheveled hair, heading straight inside. The two rows of officials bowed their backs and did not dare to look up.

Although the three great immortals were somewhat rude in this demeanor, the king did not care at all.

They had relieved the twenty-year drought in Chechi Kingdom and saved the people of Chechi Kingdom. Not to mention being rude, what harm would it do for the king to kowtow to them a few times?

The king said: "National Preceptors, I did not invite you. How did you condescend to come today?"

The king was very courteous and approachable, without any airs.

Moreover, he didn't know if the king was mistaken, but he always felt that the three national preceptors looked very strange today…
