Journey to the West Arrives: Start by becoming an apprentice of the Tongtian Sect Leader!

The Jade Emperor turned his head and looked at Li Xuancang with some confusion.

The Jade Emperor was originally watching a good show when the Three Pure Ones used the creation treasure to trigger the phantom of Pangu's Axe.

Then, the Buddha of the West recruited the demon master Kunpeng, which made Zhen Yuanzi an enemy of the West.

Moreover, Zhen Yuanzi's words were very clear: if the West protects Kunpeng, then even if I have to storm the Western Spirit Mountain, I will still kill Kunpeng!

Everyone knew in their hearts that Zhenyuan Daxian was definitely not just making empty threats.

These top experts are all aware of the friendship between Zhenyuan Daxian and Hongyun Laozu, so there is no need to doubt that Zhenyuan Daxian is lying, because Zhenyuan Daxian is truly willing to risk his life to avenge Hongyun Laozu.

Therefore, the Jade Emperor was quite looking forward to it, hoping that Zhenyuan Daxian and the two Western Saints would fight each other, so that the Western Spirit Mountain would have another great enemy.

But why would my own nephew suddenly stab me?

The Jade Emperor then looked at Li Xuancang with some confusion…

"Nephew, why did you stab me?"

Li Xuancang whispered in the Jade Emperor's ear.

"Uncle-Master, would you like to have another top-tier combatant in our Heavenly Court?"

Upon hearing this, the Jade Emperor was taken aback at first, but then his eyes lit up!

How could the Jade Emperor, the supreme ruler of the Three Realms, possibly fail to grasp the deeper meaning behind Li Xuancang's words?

Kunpeng and Zhenyuan Daxian are mortal enemies. Western Buddhism protects Kunpeng, so why should my Heavenly Court recruit Zhenyuan Daxian? That makes sense, right?

Moreover, Zhenyuan Daxian has made it clear that he wants to be an enemy of the Western Buddhist sect. The current Journey to the West is a conflict between Taoism and Buddhism. Although Zhenyuan Daxian is not a person of the Heavenly Court, he is still considered to be from the Xuanmen lineage.

According to this logic, Zhenyuan Daxian should have joined forces with the Heavenly Court!

Zhenyuan Daxian should join forces with the Heavenly Court to fight against the Western Buddhist sect!

Then he thought of the Jade Emperor here, his eyes shining as he gazed at the distant figure of Zhenyuan Daxian…

"Nephew, do you mean you want me to invite Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi to the Heavenly Court?"

Although the Jade Emperor had already understood the meaning behind Li Xuancang's words, he still asked a question.

Li Xuancang immediately nodded.

"That's right!"

"The situation is now clear: there is absolutely no chance that the hatred between Senior Zhen Yuanzi and Kunpeng will be amicable."

"Now the schemes of the two Western Saints have been laid bare."

"The reason why the two Western Saints revealed that Kunpeng was related to the death of Senior Hongyun must have been because they wanted to scheme against Kunpeng."

"It's likely that the two Western Saints already harbored the idea of ​​recruiting Kunpeng from that time onward..."

"Kunpeng, knowing that he and Senior Zhen Yuanzi were destined to be enemies to the death, would definitely want to find a safe haven in the prehistoric world."

"I think Kunpeng should be able to figure it out, and understand that what the two Western Saints are doing today is to plot against him."

"But even though he understood, there was nothing he could do, because now, in the entire primordial world, the only place willing to shelter him was probably the Western Spirit Mountain."

"Therefore, Kunpeng must enter Mount Ling. If that's the case, isn't this an opportunity for our Heavenly Court?!"

The Jade Emperor nodded in approval when he heard his junior disciple analyze everything so logically.

"Nephew, it's truly remarkable that you can see these things so clearly at your age."

"Think about it carefully, when your uncle was your age, he used to pee and play in the mud next to the master all day long~"

"And now you have such insight."

"Not bad, not bad."

"What happened today was pretty much as you analyzed. It's just that I was so focused on watching the show that I forgot about the most important point. Luckily, you reminded me."

"Since that's the case, we can't let the two Western Saints be too happy. Now that they've obtained the Kunpeng, let Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi join my Heavenly Court!"

After speaking, the Jade Emperor did not hesitate for long. Without saying a word, he took a step forward and appeared next to Zhenyuan Daxian.

Then they heard the Jade Emperor speak loudly…

"The Buddha of Assistance truly deserves to be one of the three saints; he speaks with such authority."

The Jade Emperor's sudden appearance startled the Buddha of Guidance, who then had a very bad premonition.

Especially after seeing the Jade Emperor standing right next to Zhen Yuanzi…

The Buddha of Guidance was no fool; he realized it in an instant.

Is Haotian trying to use this opportunity to recruit Zhen Yuanzi?!

Although he had considered this, the Buddha remained outwardly calm and composed.

"Amitabha Buddha, Haotian, today's events seem to have nothing to do with you, do they?"

"Although I am a saint with three corpses, I have never thought of using my power to oppress others."

"It is just that this humble monk really does not want to see Fellow Daoist Kunpeng and Fellow Daoist Zhenyuanzi fight to the death. After all, both of them are top experts in our prehistoric world. If either of them suffers a loss, it will be a loss for the prehistoric world."

"What? Does Your Majesty, as the Great Celestial Venerable of the Three Realms, actually wish to see Fellow Daoist Kunpeng and Fellow Daoist Zhenyuanzi fight to the death, or even have one of them perish?"

"This doesn't seem like the kind of thinking a Great Celestial Venerable of the Three Realms should have..."

Upon hearing the Buddha of Guidance immediately turn the tables and accuse him, the Jade Emperor shook his head disdainfully and did not respond to the Buddha's words. Instead, he turned to look at Zhenyuan Daxian.

"Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, your relationship with Fellow Daoist Hongyun was known throughout the primordial world. Although I have always served as a disciple by the Dao Ancestor's side, I have also heard about it."

"I have long admired the relationship between the two of you."

"Today, seeing that Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi was willing to sacrifice his own essence to avenge Fellow Daoist Hongyun, I am deeply moved."

"I thought that Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi would be able to successfully avenge his friend, but I never expected that the two Western Saints would interfere and protect Kunpeng, and even use their power to oppress others."

"I simply couldn't stand by and watch, so I spoke out for justice. Please forgive me, Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi."

Zhenyuan Daxian was no fool either. Everyone knew what the Jade Emperor wanted to do when he suddenly stepped forward at this moment.

After all, the Journey to the West was originally a conflict between Taoism and Buddhism. The Heavenly Court was originally an enemy of the Western Buddhist sect, and now the Western Buddhist sect has gained another enemy, namely Zhenyuan Daxian.

In that case, wouldn't the enemy of my enemy be my friend?

Zhenyuan Daxian first glanced at Kunpeng standing beside the Buddha of Reception, then took a deep breath and turned to look at the Jade Emperor.

"This humble Taoist thanks the Great Heavenly Venerable for speaking out in defense of justice!"

"The Western Buddhist sects have gone too far. Since they are willing to protect the murderer from back then, then they should bear the consequences for the murderer."

"I had no intention of being an enemy of the West, but I never expected that the Western sages would force me to become their enemy..."
