290: Chapter 188 Pure Dislike for You_3 290: Chapter 188 Pure Dislike for You_3 Elder Lord ceased his watch, leaving him here could indeed spell his demise.
Therefore, as soon as Elder Lord finished speaking, Sun Wukong, without a second word, turned and fled.
By the time Shao Siming and the others reacted, Sun Wukong had already departed.
“Lucky for him, he’s fast.”
Tathagata said with a cold snort.
Glancing at Tathagata, Shao Siming spoke discontentedly, “If he didn’t run, would you dare to make a move?”
Tathagata: “...”
Elder Lord was surely still watching, and if he dared to make a move, Elder Lord would likely intervene.
Even if Sun Wukong hadn’t run, it was hardly a certainty that Tathagata would have acted.
“Just a mouthful of tricks,”
Shao Siming said disdainfully.
Tathagata: “...”
“Humph, now in the Three Realms, apart from The Three Pure Ones and the Jade Emperor, everyone else is useless.
If it were back then, I wouldn’t have thought of collaborating with you.
If you perform poorly in the future, I will not hesitate to abandon you,”
Shao Siming finished speaking and disappeared within Mount Ling.
Tathagata Buddha’s face turned an iron blue, his heart inflamed with towering rage.
At this moment, mental fortitude was useless.
Scolded by a woman in front of so many others, as if reprimanding a servant, Tathagata admitted that his mentality had cracked.
He snorted coldly, his face chilled as he sat upon the Nine-Colored Lotus Platform.
The Buddhist Realm’s Bodhisattvas at Mount Ling dared not speak.
In front of Shao Siming, Tathagata’s cowardice was quite something, but in front of them, his authority was immense.
“Ha.”
At that moment, Jin Chan, who had been silent, suddenly laughed.
Tathagata turned around, his eyes flashing coldly as he stared at Jin Chan.
“What do you mean by that?”
Jin Chan, fearless, locked eyes with Tathagata and said, “Master, how is it that you’ve lived as a mortal for so many years, yet it seems like you are going backward?
Are you weaker than Shao Siming?”
“There’s no significant difference,”
Tathagata said coldly.
Were it not for this strength, he would not dare dream of challenging for the position of Great Heavenly Venerate.
Jin Chan scoffed, “Then why are you afraid of her?
True collaboration is when both parties are equals.
What you have now can only be called dependency.
Where did the dominance of the Lord of the Buddhist Realm go?
You even dare dream of taking over the position of the Great Heavenly Venerate and replacing The Three Pure Ones to become the true foremost being of the Three Realms, yet now you’re afraid of just a Shao Siming?”
Tathagata was startled, turning back to look at Jin Chan, his eyes glinting sharply.
Jin Chan met his gaze, his face tranquil.
Tathagata fell silent, not having seen as clearly as his disciple.
He thought he was merely humoring Shao Siming, but perhaps he was intimidated by her reputation.
If one truly had confidence, it would naturally be an equal collaboration.
Why the need to pretend?
Realizing this, Tathagata looked at Jin Chan with a hint of admiration.
“Although I don’t particularly like you, I must admit, you have awakened your master,”
Tathagata’s eyes flashed fiercely.
He was a man who dared to scheme against the Great Heavenly Venerate, already stronger than the Four Heavenly Kings.
Just a Shao Siming, why should he cower before her?
“I’ll be right back,”
After saying this, Tathagata vanished from Mount Ling.
The crowd exchanged looks, all somewhat speechless.
Meanwhile, Jin Chan spoke with surprise, “He actually believed my words?
I hope Shao Siming kills him.”
The crowd: “...”
They were all speechless, realizing that Jin Chan wasn’t advising Tathagata but had hoped that Shao Siming would kill him.
It was imaginable that, with Tathagata’s departure, a conflict with Shao Siming was inevitable.
Lamp-Burning Ancient Buddha glared at Jin Chan and coldly snorted, “The Second Buddha Ancestor, when the Buddha returns, I must tell him what you just said,”
Glancing at Lamp-Burning Ancient Buddha, Jin Chan smiled faintly and said, “Are you still a three-year-old child?
Knowing only how to tattle, even if Tathagata is beaten half to death and returns, he will have to thank me.”
Lamp-Burning Ancient Buddha scoffed, but he did not believe it.
Maitreya Buddha looked unhappy as well.
Originally ranked as the third most important figure at Mount Ling, now that Jin Chan had become the Second Buddha Ancestor, he had slipped to the fourth spot.
This demotion was irksome for Maitreya.
His greatest concern was about the position of Buddha.
If Tathagata became the Great Heavenly Venerate, to whom would the title of Buddha go?
Now, it seemed unlikely for him and more likely that Jin Chan would succeed.
Therefore, Maitreya naturally had no fondness for Jin Chan.
As for Lamp-Burning, he was indifferent.
As an Ancient Buddha, he only desired to see the prosperity of Mount Ling.
Who became Buddha was of little importance to him.
Within Mount Ling, although Lamp-Burning was not exactly virtuous, among them, his lust for power was the least.
Shortly after, Tathagata Buddha returned with a swollen face and a bruised nose.
Seeing his condition, everyone was dumbfounded.
He appeared to have been severely beaten; Tathagata Buddha had actually been thrashed so badly by Shao Siming.
Seeing the odd glances from everyone, Tathagata Buddha knew what they were thinking.
He smiled proudly and said, “I know what you are all thinking.
You’re wondering how I got beaten so badly.
What if I told you that Shao Siming is in worse shape than I am?
What would you think then?”
“Buddha is mighty.”
“Buddha is invincible.”
Tathagata wore a smile, feeling slightly comforted.
It was only after clashing with Shao Siming that he realized he had overestimated the Ancient Gods.
They weren’t as formidable as he had imagined.
At the very least, Shao Siming had not dominated him.
Although he hadn’t gained any advantage over her,
In a mysterious space, Shao Siming clenched her teeth, her face flushed red, her clothes torn, her hair disheveled, and her delicate body trembling slightly.
She hadn’t expected the old monk to be so formidable; she had nearly lost to Tathagata.
It was clear she couldn’t be careless anymore.
The beings of the Three Realms weren’t as simple as she had imagined.
