My brother is so cunning

Chapter 1161 Exposing the Secret Talks
Looking at the tense expressions on the two saints' faces, Wen Rui smiled faintly and said gently to the live broadcast camera, "All beings in the Three Realms, rest assured, I will protect the children and have a good 'talk' with the two saints. I will never let the conflict escalate."

He paused, then turned his gaze back to the two saints, his tone carrying an unquestionable air: "Both saints, if you are willing, we will talk in the school's conference room; if not, please leave—this is a children's paradise, where no disputes are tolerated."

The crowd watching the live stream instantly shifted their sentiments to "persuading for reconciliation":
"Let's talk in the conference room! Don't stay in the classroom!"

"Exactly! Don't disrupt the children's classes!"

"Anyone with a modicum of manners would agree, right?"

"It's hard to say. Western monks have always done inhuman things. You've seen that old movie, right? Western Tantric monks actually skinned and gutted living girls to make them into Buddhist ritual implements!"

"They're utterly beasts! No, they're even worse than beasts! Beasts absorb the essence of the sun and moon to gain intelligence, and after receiving education from my Jie Sect, they become knowledgeable, reasonable, civilized, and kind!"

……

The Buddha and the Sage Zhunti exchanged a glance, both seeing compromise in each other's eyes—they had no other choice. If they refused again, they would truly become "fierce and evil beings" despised by all beings in the Three Realms, and sit idly by while the Western Sect fabricated accusations of speaking human language but doing human things.

After the two saints left the land of ultimate bliss, they had long heard the Buddha and his disciples from the Western Paradise accuse Wen Rui of all sorts of evil deeds. They also knew that after Wen Rui’s persistent and relentless smear campaign for more than a hundred years, no monk dared to set foot on the land of Jambudvipa to preach.

Wen Rui's slander was not entirely unfounded. Many of the pieces of evidence he presented to convict the Western religion were indeed true, such as the fact that some Buddhist esoteric sects had indeed engaged in the production of ritual implements made from human bones and human skin.

Even the two saints dared not say that the Western religion was absolutely correct. After all, with so many sects developing over the years, there are bound to be one or two bad apples. Even if you try to whitewash it with Buddhist teachings and do everything you can to exonerate them, you really can't wipe them all clean.

However, the two saints can still guarantee that the vast majority of Western believers are not as evil, barbaric, and insane as Wen Rui claimed, and do not seek to survive by oppressing the masses.

In this situation, if they, as the most accomplished and accomplished representatives of the Western Religion, and even more revered founders than the current leader, were to fight Wen Rui in front of countless people, disregarding the lives of the children, it would confirm that the Western Religion is corrupt from top to bottom, with no good people among its members, and only the stone lions at the entrance are clean.

"Okay! Let's talk in the conference room!"

The guide said in a deep voice, his Buddhist light diminishing considerably, yet his exhaustion was still evident: "But if you try to play tricks, don't blame us for being impolite!"

Wen Rui nodded slightly, turned to the children and smiled gently: "Children, I need to talk to these two bald uncles with bumps all over their heads. You can follow the teaching assistant for class first, okay?"

"it is good!"

The children answered in unison, but still looked at Ersheng with some worry. It wasn't until Wen Rui comforted them with a smile that they reluctantly left with the teaching assistant.

Wen Rui was merely saying goodbye to the children when his words stirred up a nameless rage within the two Western Saints standing nearby.

What does it mean to have your head covered in bumps?

That's called a fleshy protuberance, one of the Buddha's features. It's an external manifestation that comes from countless lifetimes of practice and the accumulation of immeasurable merit. It represents the Buddha's impeccable wisdom and compassion and is a symbol of the Buddha's "transcendence."

The way Wen Rui put it makes it sound like he was beaten up!
……

The meeting room at Chengxi Elementary School was small and simply furnished—a long table, a few wooden chairs, and children's drawings of "future cities" on the walls. The drawings featured flying cars, air-purifying trees, and a crayon drawing of "Uncle Tianzun" smiling with a book, echoing the childlike atmosphere outside. Wen Rui entered the meeting room first, sitting directly at one end of the long table. He casually turned the tablet computer on the table towards Ersheng—the screen was playing a replay of the confrontation in the classroom, with a dense barrage of comments like "Support Tianzun" and "Western Religion Get Out."

Even screenshots of the discussion on the spirit world communicator were being synced in real time. Clearly, the meeting was still being broadcast live across the entire internet, and all eyes of all beings in the three realms were focused on this small room.

This was a carefully laid trap by Wen Rui, leading the two Western Saints, who had come with great momentum to kill him, into a predicament where they wanted to kill Wen Rui but couldn't bring themselves to do so.

If a fight breaks out within five seconds of meeting, Wen Rui really has no confidence he'll see the sun rise tomorrow.

After all, their opponents were two saints!

Although Wen Rui knew he was very strong now, he wasn't arrogant enough to be confident that he could defeat two saints by fighting them alone.

The system's mission is to unite the three religions, not to destroy them and make the Jie Sect the sole dominant force. As long as the mission is completed, everything is negotiable and open to discussion.

When the Guide and the Sage Zhunti took their seats, the Buddha light around them had been reduced to its extreme, but they still could not hide their tense expressions.

Just as the Sage Zhunti was about to speak, his gaze swept over the barrage of comments on the tablet, and he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue—he knew very well that every word he uttered at this moment could be amplified, and if he was not careful, he would be accused of "immorality."

"What brings you two sages to me?"

Wen Rui sat down, casually crossing his legs, his tone relaxed as if he were facing not the most powerful supreme being in this world, but two ordinary visitors.

"You asked knowingly!"

The Guide Daoist said coldly, "You extraterrestrial demon, harboring evil intentions, descended upon this realm to bewitch its inhabitants, poison people's hearts, and corrupt the natural order and morality..."

Wen Rui waved his hand impatiently, interrupting his accusation: "Stop spouting such vague and high-sounding empty words; the masses won't understand!"

"I'd like to show you two a special clip, which can be considered a translation of the nonsense you just uttered into something that all living beings can understand."

He raised his hand and tapped the tablet lightly. The screen flickered with light and shadow, and a scene appeared on the top of Kunlun Mountain—in the Jade Void Palace shrouded in clouds and mist, the Primordial Celestial Venerable sat in the main seat, with the Buddha Tathagata and the Sage Zhunti sitting on either side. The three of them set up a barrier around themselves to isolate them from detection, and whispered to each other with solemn expressions.

Yuanshi Tianzun (frowning): "The remnants of the Jie Sect are teaching people technology, allowing mortals to master the methods of 'awakening spiritual roots' and 'extending lifespan.' If this continues, all living beings can cultivate on their own, everyone will be like a dragon, everyone will be like an immortal, everyone will be carefree, and everyone will live forever. How can we live like this?"

The Buddha (making a hand gesture with his fingertips): "This trend must not be allowed to continue! Technology is a heretical art, which will only cause sentient beings to develop greed and deviate from the path of 'purity and non-action'. All technological knowledge of the Intercepting Sect should be banned and its lineage severed!"

Sage Zhunti (the Seven Treasures Tree sways gently): "If we can destroy the mundane scientific and technological books, and then use the Dharma to wash away the memories of sentient beings, allowing them to return to their past simple and ignorant state, their hearts will return to the ancient way, and they will naturally return to Buddhism, worship the gods, and respect the old order of the Three Realms."

Yuanshi Tianzun (nods): "Once the Creation Tianzun is destroyed, the Western Sect will take the lead in confiscating all technological creations in the mortal realm. Anyone who possesses them privately will be punished as 'defying Heaven'!"

The image freezes here, and a note pops up at the bottom of the tablet: "A secret conversation at Kunlun Jade Palace a few days ago, recorded by the 'Time Camera' magical artifact invented by the Creator Celestial Venerable."
