Chapter 250: Chapter 224, Bai Jin Rescues Taishang Bai Jin left the Ksitigarbha Temple and went directly into the depths of the Underworld. Diting came over slowly with snorting and rubbed his tiger head against Ksitigarbha’s calf, saying in a muffled voice, "I can’t hear the slightest news about him, there’s no way to trace him within the Three Realms." Ksitigarbha spoke calmly, "Of course, my mentor is not an ordinary Immortal God; the Heavenly Secret has been concealed long ago." "But I have a feeling, and don’t think too much of it, just a feeling! Your mentor seems to be fooling you." Ksitigarbha glanced at Diting and said with annoyance, "Your feeling is not accurate at all. My mentor is a wise man, a true friend and a good teacher who can understand me and is willing to help. A virtuous role model who is pure, kind, and amicable, he is the example I follow in my progress and learning." Diting had a look of confusion in his eyes. Were there really such people in the Primordial World?! ... Bai Jin made his way back to the Pingxin Palace. What he previously said about helping Ksitigarbha in one way or another might not have been entirely untrue. After entering Pingxin Palace, Bai Jin found Wa Niangniang in the backyard and bowed with a smile, "Your Grace, your disciple is back again." Wa Niangniang glanced at Bai Jin and said lazily, "What? Can’t bear to leave?" Bai Jin stood up, came closer, and sat beside Wa Niangniang, saying, "Earlier, I saw that Your Grace was very annoyed with Ksitigarbha, so I just went to see him to understand the situation. When I learned that he had delivered the Underworld souls to the Western Sect Disciples, my heart was also enraged, and I reprimanded him harshly. He has deeply realized his mistakes and reflected profoundly. Now that Ksitigarbha knows what he did wrong, Your Grace should not be angry anymore, so as not to affect your mood." Wa Niangniang nodded slightly and said softly, "You are considerate." Bai Jin’s eyes darted around, and he asked curiously, "Your Grace, were there many souls that Ksitigarbha gave to the Western Sect?" Wa Niangniang nodded and said, "Many! All were souls from the Human Clan." Bai Jin immediately angrily exclaimed, "This little brat, I’ll deal with him later." "Disturbing the Underworld’s Reincarnation, this is a grave sin!" "What Your Grace said is absolutely right. The punishment must be severe to deter the gods of the Underworld." Ping Xin asked, "What do you think the punishment should be?" "Why not lock Ksitigarbha in a dark cell! Detain him in the depths of Yin Mountain where he can’t see the outside world, and make him purify Fierce Ghosts tirelessly day and night; a moment’s slack, and he’ll never be released." Ping Xin nodded with satisfaction, "Very well!" Bai Jin smiled and said, "Your Grace, are we just going to let go of those souls taken by the Western Sect? Shouldn’t we settle this account with the Western Sect?" Ping Xin looked towards the West, her voice distant, "My true body cannot leave the Underworld, and with two Saints in the West, for now, we can only let it be! Time is on our side, and I will slowly settle the score with them." "Your Grace, let me handle this affair!" Ping Xin looked at Bai Jin doubtfully and said, "You?" Bai Jin immediately stood up and bowed deeply, speaking earnestly, "To bully Your Grace is to bully me. Your Grace may have the bigger picture in mind to settle things slowly, but I, Bai Jin, do not understand such calculations, nor do I understand the notion of waiting for the long term. I’m a straightforward person; anyone who dares bully Your Grace, I’ll fight them with everything I’ve got." Wa Niangniang flicked her finger, and with a pop~ a red mark instantly appeared on Bai Jin’s forehead. "Ouch~" Bai Jin immediately covered his forehead, looking aggrieved at Wa Niangniang, but I’m trying to help you, Your Grace! Wa Niangniang said with annoyance, "Fight what? Do you think you’re so powerful that you can rival a Saint?" Bai Jin subconsciously shook his head, "No!" "Then go back and properly seclude yourself to comprehend the Tao of Reincarnation." "Oh~" Bai Jin responded weakly and left the Underworld. ... After leaving the Underworld, Bai Jin did not return to the East Sea but went straight to Shouyang Mountain. On the outskirts of Shouyang Mountain, Great Master Xuandu sat by a small stream, leisurely fishing, occasionally turning his head to look in the direction of the main peak with a helpless shake of his head. A ray of light descended from the sky and transformed into Bai Jin’s form beside him. Bai Jin called out with a smile, "Senior Brother!" Great Master Xuandu stood up, bowed with cupped hands, and said, "I have seen Senior Brother!" Bai Jin returned the bow, then asked with a smile, "Senior Brother, why are you fishing here? I remember that below the Eight Sceneries Palace, there is a river with particularly plump fish and shrimp." Xuandu turned his head toward the main peak and said helplessly, "Several days ago, Nuwa matriarch arrived to discuss the Tao with the Master, and the great Tao of heaven and earth throughout the Shouyang Mountain range was twisted; even I cannot stay for long." Bai Jin was secretly amazed, it seemed Nuwa truly got angry, and she hadn’t left to this day. "What about your disciple Zhu Ganglie?" "He has gone to the Heavenly Court to seek refuge with Zhenwu; I let him go to gain some experience." "It looks like Zhu Ganglie is about to graduate!" Xuandu smiled slightly and said, "He still has a long way to go," his eyes subtly showing satisfaction. "Then I won’t disturb Senior Brother’s fishing; I’ll go see Master first." Great Master Xuandu hesitated for a moment and said, "Senior Brother, be careful!" "Sure!" Bai Jin nodded, took a deep breath, soared into the sky, and headed towards the Eight Sceneries Palace, calling out urgently as he flew, "Master, I have finally found out about the matter you asked me to investigate." The twisted Eight Sceneries Palace instantly returned to normal. Bai Jin flew in and saw Taishang and Nuwa sitting in the courtyard, sipping tea, in perfect harmony. Taishang looked at Bai Jin with a warm smile and said, "Bai Jin, you arrived just in time. Even if you didn’t come to the Eight Sceneries Palace, Master would have had to find you. With something as serious as the Evil God, why didn’t you tell Master but went to trouble matriarch Nuwa instead?" Bai Jin shrank his neck, feeling subconsciously guilty and sensing a strong danger coming from the unknown, he quickly said, "Master, weren’t you matching wits and courage with the Western Sect? I was afraid that the matter of the Evil God would affect your mental state, so I troubled matriarch Nuwa to take action. Master, I have already found out about the matter you asked me to investigate, and it is indeed as you speculated – the Western Sect is behind it." Matching wits and courage with the Western Sect? When did that happen, and how come I don’t know about it? What did I ask you to investigate? Taishang maintained his composure on the surface, nodding and smiling, "Since Sister Nuwa is also here, tell us about your findings." Nuwa also looked at Bai Jin. Bai Jin promptly said respectfully, "Thirteen hundred years ago, you, Master, mentioned that the disciples of the Western Sect were up to something, asking me to look into it. I traveled to the heavens and the earth, mingling among various powers, and kept a superficial relationship with the disciples of the Western Sect. In the course of this, I accidentally encountered the incarnated form of Senior Hao Tian and learned about the matter of the Evil God. Only by investigating both did I stir some reaction. Afterwards, I reported the matter of the Evil God to Senior, and I focused on secretly investigating the disciples of the Western Sect. Now, I finally have some results and have come to report. It turns out that the disciples of the Western Sect have created the Palm Buddha Country, where they plunder the souls of the Human Clan and imprison them in the Buddha Country, transforming human souls into Buddha’s sons to provide faith, bolstering the power of the Buddha Country."
