Chapter 486 - 480: On the Day of the Dharma Assembly, the Ming King Holds Court
Bai Ze and the others remain unchecked for a day, the Peacock Great Ming King’s heart remains unsettled for a day.
The Peacock Great Ming King himself is unafraid, but he must think of Kong Mengmeng.
Therefore, he is determined to eliminate Bai Ze and others completely.
Living in the world, who does not have three or five friends.
The Peacock Great Ming King, although proud and aloof, has friends within the sect.
The Peacock Great Ming King’s best friend is named Guanyin Bodhisattva.
This Guanyin Bodhisattva has just ascended to the Tier Two Peak, so has yet to be enshrined as Buddha.
Besides this Tier Two Peak friend, the Peacock Great Ming King has two other friends who are at the late Tier Two, just a step away from the Tier Two Peak.
These two are named Manjushri Bodhisattva and Manjushri Bodhisattva.
The Peacock Great Ming King, nearly recovered from his injuries, originally planned to use the law meeting tomorrow to directly confront the sect and coerce Lady Ming King into revealing the whereabouts of Bai Ze, Xiang Liu, and Chongming Bird.
Ultimately, he was persuaded otherwise by these three friends.
In the venue, the Peacock Great Ming King is conversing with the three friends.
"Great Ming King, you must not act impulsively. If a grave mistake occurs, it will be difficult to manage." Guanyin Bodhisattva advised.
Manjushri Bodhisattva also advised, "To confront the sect would provoke wrath from other Buddhas, certainly leading to a great battle. It does not guarantee the killing of Bai Ze and others."
"This Lady Ming King has truly pushed me to the limit."
"Knowing the deep hatred between me and Bai Ze, they dared to seal Buddha on behalf of their father."
"In any case, I must kill Bai Ze and the others." The Peacock Great Ming King’s tone was firm.
Guanyin and the others know the Peacock Great Ming King’s personality, they know once he decides on something, even nine oxen cannot force him back.
The only thing they can do now is to avoid resolving this matter with violence.
If violence becomes necessary, the sect would inevitably fall into chaos.
Remember, back when Wu Nengsheng employed tricks, it threw the sect into a mess.
The chaos affected only the sect’s middle and lower levels, causing more than half to be dead or wounded.
If the Peacock Great Ming King causes an uproar this time, it involves more than the middle and lower levels.
It involves the sect’s top-tier combat power in conflict.
If not handled well, the situation could escalate, and the sect could even face annihilation.
Manjushri Bodhisattva pondered for a moment, then solemnly said, "Tomorrow is the sect’s law meeting. Three of us shall appear first, explain the severity to Lady Ming King, have him retract the Dharma Scroll, and expel Bai Ze and the three."
"Once Bai Ze and the others are expelled, then Great Ming King can act against them without violating sect rules."
Manjushri Bodhisattva’s suggestion received nods and agreements from Guanyin Bodhisattva and Manjushri Bodhisattva.
The Peacock Great Ming King nodded and said, "In that case, for the sake of the World Honored, let us give Lady Ming King another chance."
"If he does not repent, then he cannot blame me for being ruthless."
After the Peacock Great Ming King spoke, the three Bodhisattvas felt an inexplicable sense of urgency.
They seem to feel as if this matter might not be resolved easily.
At this moment, there are no other options, they can only do their best and leave the rest to fate.
...
...
The next day, within the sect.
Today is the World Honored’s rebirth day.
This rebirth day of the World Honored marks the day he gave up severing the mountain’s corpse to attain the way, choosing the way of nine reincarnation bodies to attain enlightenment.
The World Honored’s nine reincarnations all chose to be reborn on the same day, which is today.
On this day each year, the sect organizes a grand law meeting.
This meeting, except for Tier Two powerhouses who are not mandatory, those below Tier Two must attend.
Each law meeting invites Tier Two Peak powerhouses to preach to the sect members.
Listening to such preaching is a great opportunity for the weak to enhance their strength.
Therefore, this law meeting has become a grand event for the sect.
This time, the Tier Two Peak powerhouse invited to preach is the Medicine King Buddha.
The Medicine King Buddha resides on the Buddha Platform, while Lady Ming King is seated cross-legged on the first cushion below the platform, followed by other sect members.
"Dong!"
"Dong! Dong!"
As the saying goes, morning bell and evening drum, after three bell chimes, the Medicine King Buddha was about to begin preaching.
At that moment, three Buddha’s Radiance manifested, revealing Guanyin Bodhisattva, Manjushri Bodhisattva, Manjushri Bodhisattva arriving together.
"What wind has blown my friend Guanyin here?" Asked the Medicine King Buddha upon seeing them.
The strength gap between Tier Two Peak and late Tier Two is substantial.
Thus, the Medicine King Buddha addressed only Guanyin as a friend.
Regarding Manjushri Bodhisattva and Manjushri Bodhisattva, in the Medicine King Buddha’s eyes, unless they reach Tier Two Peak, they are not worthy of his attention.
Guanyin Bodhisattva did not beat around the bush, straightforwardly saying: "We are here on behalf of the Great Ming King."
People in the sect know they are close to the Peacock Great Ming King, so no need for concealment.
After Guanyin spoke, Manjushri Bodhisattva also said to Lady Ming King: "Currently, Lady Ming King is in the wrong!"
"Great Ming King has been in the sect for years, how can Lady Ming King disregard the elders and protect newcomers? Is this not making Great Ming King disheartened?"
After Manjushri Bodhisattva spoke, Manjushri Bodhisattva also said, "Please, Lady Ming King, retract the World Honored’s Dharma Scroll and expel Bai Ze and the three from the sect."
Seeing the aggressively persuasive Manjushri Bodhisattva and Manjushri Bodhisattva, Lady Ming King’s face instantly turned grim.
Keep in mind, today is the day of the law meeting, the congregation is gathered, confronting her so aggressively in front of many sect members, this makes Lady Ming King lose face.
Lady Ming King thinks if she yields today, public morale would dissipate, and it would be hard to lead the group in the future.
"The World Honored commands me to manage the sect, my intent is the World Honored’s intent."
"Do you intend to defy the World Honored’s intent?" Lady Ming King retorted.
After the rebuke, Lady Ming King turned to the Medicine King Buddha.
Remember, Lady Ming King, only being Tier Four, needs the Medicine King Buddha’s support to confront Tier Two.
The Medicine King Buddha slightly nodded, indicating Lady Ming King not to panic.
Then, the Medicine King Buddha asked Guanyin Bodhisattva: "Friend Guanyin, is this also your intention?"
Guanyin Bodhisattva nodded slightly, softly said: "Bai Ze, Xiang Liu, Chongming Bird only bring disaster to the sect, keeping them is unwise."
The Medicine King Buddha closed his eyes, subtly said: "Today is the day of the law meeting, not the time to discuss this matter."
"You three should return, we shall deliberate again after the law meeting concludes."
The Medicine King Buddha prefers not to confront Guanyin Bodhisattva directly, thus adopting a delaying tactic.
"We can wait!"
"Great Ming King cannot wait, please urge Lady Ming King to decide swiftly!" Guanyin Bodhisattva issued a final ultimatum without leaving.
Upon hearing this, Lady Ming King grew angry, she exclaimed, "What, does the Peacock Great Ming King intend to kill me?"
