Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#1827 - The acting skills of the golden-winged Peng bird

After leaving Mount Ling, Namo Water Heaven Buddha traveled west, following the footprints left by the sage, searching for the figure of the White Lotus Child.

He moved with extreme speed, like a shooting star traversing the void, vanishing in an instant.

After about half a day, he saw a special white cloud.

Above the white cloud, a white lotus flower bloomed, its petals emitting a pure and holy aura.

The moment Namo Water Heaven Buddha approached, the white lotus instantly contracted and gathered, and a surge of immense power erupted.

"Child, it is I," Namo Water Heaven Buddha quickly said.

Upon hearing this, the power quietly dissipated.

With a flash of white light, a figure slowly emerged from within the white lotus, it was the White Lotus Child.

However, at this moment, his face was pale, his aura unstable, and his eyes held a deep wariness.

"What happened?" Namo Water Heaven Buddha hurriedly asked.

The White Lotus Child scanned his surroundings, and seeing that there was no one else, he exhaled a breath of turbid air and said, "It was the demons, they intercepted me and injured me."

"What? How did the demons know where the Child was going?" Namo Water Heaven Buddha asked in surprise.

He noticed that the spiritual energy fluctuations around the White Lotus Child had not yet dissipated, clearly still wary of him, which puzzled him.

"There is a traitor in Mount Ling," the White Lotus Child said coldly, his eyes lowered with a somber gaze, appearing somewhat frightening.

Upon hearing this, Namo Water Heaven Buddha could no longer conceal his shocked expression. He stared at the White Lotus Child with wide eyes, and in an instant, he seemed to understand many things.

After a long while, he calmed his emotions and said seriously, "This matter is extremely important, we need to report it to the Buddha."

Namo Water Heaven Buddha did not quite agree with this, and he said in a low voice, "The matter of the demons is no small matter. Child, you should come back with me first. If you encounter the demons again, it will not be good."

"I have made up my mind. You can go back and secretly inform the Buddha, but do not make it public," the White Lotus Child instructed.

After speaking, he stepped on the white clouds and drifted away.

This left Namo Water Heaven Buddha at a loss. He hesitated in place for a long time, and finally decided to inform the Tathagata of this matter.

On the other side, the White Lotus Child, who had originally left, suddenly had a smile on his lips. A flash of light appeared on his body, and he transformed into the appearance of Arhat Subduing Dragon.

And in the void beside him, Arhat Taming Tiger walked out, smiling faintly, "That Namo Water Heaven Buddha did not even see through your disguise."

"He is anxious, so naturally he cannot bother to investigate carefully. Let's go, return and report to the Buddha," said Arhat Subduing Dragon.

The two of them, under the orders of Maitreya Buddha, deliberately deceived Namo Water Heaven Buddha, wanting to stir up the waters of Mount Ling even more.

On the other side, after the Peacock Great Ming King appeared, she descended to the Lion Camel Ridge.

As soon as she appeared, Golden Winged Great Peng immediately came out to greet her. Facing this dear sister, he dared not be negligent, and hurriedly bowed to her: "Sister, why have you come?"

"Hmph, I heard that you want to ask Xitian for benefits? Who gave you the courage?" Peacock Great Ming King said in a deep voice.

These words made Golden Winged Great Peng's body tremble. Suddenly, he revealed a pitiful expression, ran to Peacock Great Ming King, and said with a crying voice, "Sister, you don't know how badly I was schemed against by Xitian."

As he spoke, a few tears even remained in the corners of his eyes, and coupled with that tragic expression, he looked as miserable as could be.

Peacock Great Ming King was also frightened by his act of selling misery. Obviously unprepared, she had no choice but to ask seriously, "Tell me about it."

Immediately afterwards, Golden Winged Great Peng's voice came like a surging river, explaining in great detail how Xitian had schemed against him, and frantically complaining about his dissatisfaction.

Peacock Great Ming King, as a member of Buddhism, rarely participated in Buddhist affairs. Hearing this at this moment, her expression could not help but turn slightly gloomy.

After all, no matter what, Golden Winged Great Peng was a brother with the same mother as her. Even if the two of them had different statuses, there was still a connection.

Therefore, upon learning that Golden Winged Great Peng had been used in this way, a trace of dissatisfaction arose in Peacock Great Ming King's heart.

However, on the surface, she still advised, "At present, the Journey to the West tribulation is the top priority, and the overall situation must be taken into account."

"Sister, I just want a little benefit, I don't want much," Golden Winged Great Peng muttered.

Hearing this, Peacock Great Ming King sighed and said, "You have worked hard in this matter, so this benefit will be provided by this seat."

After speaking, she waved her right hand, and a jade bottle fell into the field, appearing in front of Golden Winged Great Peng.

Golden Winged Great Peng's face lit up with joy, and he hurriedly put it away: "Thank you, Sister."

"In the future, live peacefully, and do not cause trouble," Peacock Great Ming King instructed a few words before leaving.

Outside the cave, the Primordial Sky Eagle and others saw this scene, with envy on their faces.

"It's different to have a backer, you can easily get benefits," Black Bear Spirit said with emotion.

"Are you kidding? That's the Peacock Great Ming King, can't she just casually take out hundreds of thousands of merits and virtues divine water?" Primordial Sky Eagle said.

"That's true, but this Great Peng's acting skills are really good," Black Bear Spirit said with a smile.

"It's a family tradition," Primordial Sky Eagle said.

Just as they were talking, a figure fell from the sky, it was Chu Hao.

The crowd hurriedly appeared and bowed to him: "Boss."

Chu Hao nodded, and then walked into the cave.

As soon as he entered the cave, Golden Winged Great Peng immediately respectfully presented the hundred thousand merits and virtues divine water he had just obtained.

After Chu Hao accepted it, he nodded and said, "You did a good job. Next, I plan to go and crusade against the demon army."

"Ah? Didn't you say you weren't going, Boss?" Primordial Sky Eagle was somewhat surprised.

"If I say I'm not going, then I'm not going?" Chu Hao glanced at him, and then said, "The matter of Lion Camel Ridge has not yet ended. Great Peng, you must pay more attention to the movements of Xitian. If anything happens, run to the Law Enforcement Hall, understand?"

"Understood, Master," Golden Winged Great Peng nodded, and then asked, "What about Tang Sanzang and his disciples?"

"You don't need to worry about them, Xitian will take care of them. You just need to worry about yourselves," Chu Hao said indifferently.

At this time, Golden Winged Great Peng suddenly thought of something and asked, "Master, I wonder how my two elder brothers are?"

"Don't worry, they are in a mountain range a hundred miles away. Don't worry, they are also my people," Chu Hao said calmly, as if he was saying something very ordinary.

However, these words, when they fell into the ears of the crowd, caused a storm, especially Golden Winged Great Peng, who looked shocked, as if he couldn't believe these words.

"Master, you're lying to me, right?" Golden Winged Great Peng said in shock.

"Am I the kind of person who likes to lie?" Chu Hao said.

These words caused the subordinates next to him to reveal a matter-of-course expression.
