#2404 - The demons have taken action
Chu Hao's words gave the Future Buddha a bad feeling, and he frowned as he looked at Chu Hao.
"Chu Hao, what do you mean by this?"
Chu Hao did not directly answer the Future Buddha's question, but instead asked him a question in return.
"Since the conflict lies between me and the Western Heaven, this matter cannot be resolved by us alone.
Moreover, this matter is related to the Journey to the West, and although the Journey to the West is arranged and executed by the Western Heaven, the Heavenly Court has always attached great importance to it.
Therefore, the Heavenly Court, as a third party, should be the most impartial, and there is no existence within the Three Realms more suitable to control the overall situation than the Heavenly Court."
On the surface, the Future Buddha could not find any fault with Chu Hao's words and had to nod in agreement.
Therefore, it is even more reasonable for the Heavenly Court, as the official institution of the Three Realms, to take over and control the overall situation."
The gods of the Heavenly Court naturally agreed with Chu Hao's words.
"Buddha, the Western Heaven is just a religious core, the Heavenly Court is the official authority of the Three Realms, you must understand the priorities."
"Since the Western Heaven is already unable to control the situation of the Journey to the West, it is only natural for our Heavenly Court to take over."
"The Western Heaven has already led 90% of the Journey to the West, but it is a mess. For the sake of the Three Realms, you should voluntarily give up your leading position."
Hearing the gods of the Heavenly Court say this, the Future Buddha became a little anxious.
The Journey to the West was the last chance for the Western Heaven to reverse the situation, how could he hand over the leading role to the Heavenly Court now?
"Absolutely not!"
The Jade Emperor looked at the somewhat anxious Future Buddha and smiled.
"Buddha, we can each take a step back. The Journey to the West plan can be arranged by your Western Heaven, but our Heavenly Court must participate in it.
If you still disagree, then if it causes dissatisfaction among the gods and they secretly make things difficult for your Western Heaven, then I will not be able to handle it."
When the Jade Emperor said this, he deliberately glanced at Chu Hao.
The Jade Emperor's actions were to put pressure on the Future Buddha through Chu Hao, which the Future Buddha himself understood.
If the Heavenly Court really ignored the situation and allowed Chu Hao to do whatever he wanted, then the Western Heaven would really not be able to bear it.
Chu Hao might directly lead Tang Sanzang and his disciples into the Spirit Mountain in a fit of anger, and the Future Buddha really had no way to deal with Chu Hao.
"Alright, but I also have conditions."
"Chu Hao must no longer directly attack my Spirit Mountain, otherwise, it will be deliberately provoking a conflict between the Western Heaven and the Heavenly Court."
The Future Buddha said to the Jade Emperor.
"Chu Hao, what do you think?"
The Jade Emperor turned around and asked Chu Hao's opinion.
"Agreed!"
In fact, as far as Chu Hao was concerned, the Western Heaven no longer had any need for him to take action.
Tang Sanzang and his disciples would be able to reach the foot of the Spirit Mountain in a few days, and for the Future Buddha, time was running out.
"Then we will settle it like this. The Western Heaven's next design will inevitably be discussed with the Heavenly Court."
"I am feeling unwell today, so I will take my leave."
At this Peach Banquet, the Future Buddha had suffered both anger and humiliation, and he could no longer stay.
After speaking, he directly waved his sleeves and left.
At the same time as the Peach Banquet, Tang Sanzang and his disciples continued to rush towards the Spirit Mountain.
"Master, at this rate, we can reach the foot of the Spirit Mountain in at most three days."
Sun Wukong said to Tang Sanzang and the others after looking into the distance in the air.
"Yes, we have not been hindered by the Western Heaven in the past two days."
"This is somewhat inconsistent with the Western Heaven's style of doing things. I wonder what they are up to."
"Perhaps the Western Heaven is planning an even bigger conspiracy. Immortal Chu Hao is not here, so we must be careful."
Tang Sanzang and his disciples discussed.
Just as they were discussing, Sun Wukong in the sky had already made a discovery.
"Not good, there is demon energy."
Sun Wukong reminded Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie and the others, and he took out his golden staff to prepare for battle.
Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng also formed a battle formation with Tang Sanzang.
Just as the four of them were preparing for battle, a cloud of black mist floated over from the front.
As the black mist approached, Tang Sanzang and the others had already seen clearly that there were many figures on top of the black mist.
The person in the lead looked somewhat familiar, and was a bald fat man.
"It seems to be Maitreya."
Sun Wukong saw the clearest and recognized the identity of the person.
As the black mist descended, Tang Sanzang and the others also saw clearly that it was indeed Maitreya who had come, and behind Maitreya, there were many demon soldiers and generals.
"Maitreya, why have you suddenly come here?"
Sun Wukong asked Maitreya.
"Great Sage, don't misunderstand. I have come to invite you to the Demon Clan. His Majesty the Demon Emperor wants to meet the four of you."
Maitreya spoke to Tang Sanzang and his disciples politely.
"We are not familiar with your Demon Clan, and as for your Demon Emperor, we have no friendship with him. We still have to travel west, so we have no time!"
Sun Wukong directly refused.
"Buddha Maitreya, looking at your intentions, it doesn't seem like an invitation. Why bring so many soldiers and generals to invite someone?"
"Since the visitors are not friendly, why be so polite?"
"We are determined not to go, what will you do?"
Tang Sanzang and Zhu Bajie also said to Maitreya.
"Four, I am sincerely inviting you, but His Majesty the Demon Emperor wants to meet the four of you, you cannot refuse him.
If you insist on refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, then I can only offend you."
Maitreya waved his hand, and the demon soldiers and generals immediately stepped forward and surrounded Tang Sanzang and his disciples.
"We are not afraid of the Western Heaven, let alone your Demon Clan. If you want to fight, then try it."
Tang Sanzang was already somewhat annoyed by Maitreya's actions.
Before Sun Wukong and the others could take action, Tang Sanzang had already spurred his horse and swung his nine-ringed tin staff to kill the demon soldiers and generals.
Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng also immediately took out their weapons and joined Tang Sanzang in killing the demon soldiers and generals.
Sun Wukong did not move, because his opponent was Maitreya.
Although there were many demon soldiers and generals, Tang Sanzang and his disciples were enough to deal with them, so there was no need to worry.
But Maitreya's cultivation was extraordinary, and even Sun Wukong was not his opponent.
"Four, since you are so uncooperative, then don't blame me."
As Maitreya spoke, he took out an item from behind him.
"Human Seed Bag! Master, Bajie, be careful!"
When Sun Wukong saw the treasure that Maitreya had taken out, he immediately reminded Tang Sanzang and the others.
This Human Seed Bag is a powerful treasure that can instantly take people into it, and even Sun Wukong is afraid of it.
