#2767 - The panicked Li Jing and his son
In the Primordial World, the probability of a Saint-level cultivator falling is very low.
Once they go to Chaos, after losing their Saint-level cultivation...
Heaven knows what the consequences will be.
It can be said that only a Great Dao Saint is a true Saint.
Although a Heavenly Dao Saint also possesses the power of a Saint.
In the end, they are still taking shortcuts.
Under certain environments and restrictions, they can possess the power of a Saint.
But once they lose the environment and restrictions, they immediately expose their true form.
Being able to choose to go to Chaos from Quasi-Saint to break through to become a Saint requires great courage.
The Golden Winged Great Peng King has met the requirements to go to Chaos to break through to become a Saint for so many years.
The reason he is still cowering in the Western Religion is because he doesn't dare to go.
The attack launched by the Golden Winged Great Peng King directly landed on the Bottomless Cave magic weapon refined by Haotian.
In an instant, white light burst out.
As the white light slowly dissipated, the Golden Winged Great Peng King was in a state of serious injury and near death.
In the Lingxiao Palace of the Primordial Heavenly Court.
Yuanshi Tianzun said to Haotian, "Why didn't you just completely kill this Golden Winged Great Peng King?"
Haotian shook his head and said, "He is only acting under the orders of the Receiving Saint and the Zhunti Saint."
"It is not easy to cultivate to Quasi-Saint, killing him like this... I can't bear it."
Yuanshi Tianzun looked at Haotian.
He obviously didn't believe a word of what Haotian said now.
Bullshit about cultivating to Quasi-Saint and being unable to bear it.
When Haotian killed Quasi-Saints in the past, he didn't see him having such mercy.
It's clearly a pretext for not wanting to continue to escalate this matter!
In this confrontation with the Western Religion, the Heavenly Court has already won a great victory.
As the Saint on the Heavenly Court's side, Yuanshi Tianzun was naturally extremely happy in his heart.
Since Haotian was unwilling to kill the Golden Winged Great Peng King, he would not force him.
Also as a Saint, he was not powerful enough to make an existence like Haotian do things he didn't like to do.
The seriously injured Golden Winged Great Peng King saw that the 'Bottomless Cave' magic weapon refined by Haotian had no further reaction after launching an attack.
He immediately understood that Haotian did not want to take his life.
He wasn't an ungrateful fellow.
Being able to cultivate to Quasi-Saint, he obviously wouldn't lack too much in terms of intelligence.
The Golden Winged Great Peng King thought to himself, "Thank you, Heavenly Emperor, for showing mercy."
As a Quasi-Saint, he was very clear about the real gap between himself and Haotian.
If you want to talk about it, it's the relationship between a firefly and the bright moon.
Haotian's willingness to let him off the hook was beyond the Golden Winged Great Peng King's expectations.
Regardless of what kind of punishment he would receive when he returned to the Western Religion.
For the sake of his own little life, the Golden Winged Great Peng King hurried towards the Western Religion.
Being punished would definitely not be a capital crime!
If he continued to stay here, he would appear a bit ungrateful.
If he really angered Haotian, he would definitely be finished.
The creatures paying attention to the situation of the Bottomless Cave saw the Golden Winged Great Peng King leaving with serious injuries, and there were many emotions in their words.
"The Golden Winged Great Peng King is already very powerful as a Quasi-Saint. For me, perhaps I don't even have the qualifications to look up to the Golden Winged Great Peng King. Such a powerful existence was actually seriously injured with one blow. The power of a Saint is terrifying!"
"The Heavenly Emperor must have shown mercy when he seriously injured the Golden Winged Great Peng King. Otherwise, as such a powerful Saint, killing the Golden Winged Great Peng King, who is only at the Quasi-Saint realm, would be a sure thing. I just don't know why he showed mercy."
"You wouldn't think the Heavenly Emperor is stupid, would you? I think the Heavenly Emperor's actions are full of his own calculations. As the Lord of the Primordial Heavenly Court, he definitely doesn't want the situation to continue to expand to the point where it can't be contained."
"Killing the Golden Winged Great Peng King is of no benefit to the Heavenly Emperor. You must know that Saints pay attention to benefits. If a Quasi-Saint of the Western Religion falls into the hands of the Heavenly Emperor, you can imagine the consequences yourselves."
......
Many creatures immediately fell silent.
Everyone, even children, knew the consequences that would be triggered if a Quasi-Saint of the Western Religion fell into Haotian's hands.
Neither the Receiving Saint nor the Zhunti Saint would allow this to happen.
Western Religion.
The Receiving Saint and the Zhunti Saint both had extremely gloomy faces.
The Zhunti Saint said in a deep voice, "The Golden Winged Great Peng King is a complete waste."
"Why didn't he dare to continue fighting with the Heavenly Emperor at the Bottomless Cave?"
When saying these words, the Zhunti Saint was not standing from the Golden Winged Great Peng King's personal perspective to think about this matter.
He was considering this matter from his own and the Western Religion's interests.
The Receiving Saint shook his head and said:
"If we let the Golden Winged Great Peng King continue to fight with the Heavenly Emperor, the ultimate loss will still be the Western Religion."
"Our Western Religion losing a Quasi-Saint will definitely hurt our foundations."
The places where he and the Zhunti Saint were annoyed were different.
The Zhunti Saint was annoyed at why the Golden Winged Great Peng King didn't resist to the end.
He was annoyed that Haotian really didn't give the Western Religion face this time.
Fortunately, after slapping them in the face fiercely, he didn't allow the Western Religion to continue to expand its losses.
Otherwise, with Haotian's combat power, he would have really completely wiped out the Golden Winged Great Peng King.
At most, he and the Zhunti Saint would just issue a statement of condemnation.
Going to confront Haotian face to face about this matter.
Not to mention the Zhunti Saint, even the Receiving Saint didn't have the guts.
While the two Saints were talking, the seriously injured Golden Winged Great Peng King returned.
The Zhunti Saint was just about to flare up when he was stopped by the Receiving Saint.
The matter had already happened, and it was useless to complain about anyone now.
Moreover, the Golden Winged Great Peng King's various actions were commendable in every aspect.
Since that was the case, it would seem that they were a bit petty if they made things difficult for such a meritorious person.
The Receiving Saint tried his best to make his tone slightly gentle and said:
"You've worked hard, take good care of your injuries."
After saying that, he took out healing pills from his space ring with some heartache and handed them to the Golden Winged Great Peng King.
People were injured for the Western Religion.
The most basic healing pills must be given.
However, every pill that could speed up the recovery of a Quasi-Saint's injuries was extremely precious.
Some had already been consumed at Lion Tuo Ridge before.
Now there was more consumption, which made the Receiving Saint, who always advocated thrift and frugality... bleed in his heart!
The Golden Winged Great Peng King took the pills and left.
He didn't secretly rejoice that the Receiving Saint and the Zhunti Saint had let him go this time.
He had definitely tried his best.
If they still chose to make things difficult for him at this time, it would really be a bit disheartening.
Many disciples of the Western Religion were somewhat astonished when they heard this news.
This attitude was not in line with the Receiving Saint and the Zhunti Saint's way of doing things.
"I thought the Golden Winged Great Peng King would be punished in some way after returning this time. I never expected that the Receiving Saint and the Zhunti Saint would let him go. The matter of the Bottomless Cave has caused our Western Religion so much loss!"
"You can't say that. The matter of the Bottomless Cave was not caused by the Golden Winged Great Peng King's loss to our Western Religion. I would say that the Heavenly Emperor is the one who really caused our Western Religion's loss. If he hadn't been idle and set up such a situation, how could there have been any loss?"
"You can eat anything, but you can't talk nonsense. No matter what, this kind of thing can't affect the Heavenly Emperor. Even if it was really the Heavenly Emperor who set up the situation, we, who are like ants in front of the Saints, can't mention it like this."
"Be careful to avoid trouble. The unpredictable methods of the Saints are simply beyond our imagination. If you're not careful, you might bring disaster upon yourself. Never discuss Saints behind their backs, especially this kind of bad thing."
...
Bottomless Cave area.
Qin He looked at Curly Tail Mouse, who had no idea that this drama was over.
He was still diligently sticking to his 'post'.
Qin He hadn't seen this kind of somewhat dull behavior for many years.
Li Jing and his son in the Heavenly Court seemed to 'subconsciously' ignore this new member of the family.
There was no way, Li Jing and his son also wanted face.
The most important thing was that they were both from the Chan Sect.
The Chan Sect had always claimed to be the orthodox human race.
During the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, they regarded the Jie Sect, which taught without discrimination, as a heresy!
In Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes, these monster beast spirits were not worthy of becoming Saint disciples.
Even though so many years had passed since the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation.
This brand, deeply engraved in the depths of their blood, still existed.
And it was constantly reminding every disciple of the Chan Sect.
In the blink of an eye, a year was about to pass.
Qin He really couldn't stand it anymore.
The Journey to the West plan was very important, and it would be a sin to delay such an important matter for this reason.
He sent a voice transmission to Haotian, explaining the matter in detail.
Haotian muttered to himself after receiving the voice transmission, "I almost forgot about the finishing work of the Bottomless Cave..."
It wasn't his fault.
Logically speaking, based on the tacit understanding between the monarch and his ministers.
Even if Haotian hadn't issued an order to finish the job.
Li Jing should have made his own decision or come to ask for instructions.
But now... Li Jing and his son seemed to have forgotten about the existence of Curly Tail Mouse.
This made Haotian instantly understand what Li Jing and his son were thinking.
This was the old tradition of the Chan Sect, which was nothing more than excluding alien races.
There was no problem with them communicating with alien races.
But if they were to have this kind of close relationship with alien races.
Then it would definitely touch the string in their hearts.
It was nothing more than fear of his identity, so they didn't dare to openly resist him.
That's why they used the means of resisting him secretly.
Haotian stroked his chin and said, "It's time to knock them down a peg or two."
With this in mind, he directly summoned Li Jing and his son.
When Li Jing and his son saw Haotian's somewhat gloomy face, their hearts couldn't help but thump.
As the saying goes, if you haven't done anything wrong, you don't have to be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door!
Although they hadn't done anything wrong, they hadn't carried out Haotian's orders to the fullest...
For other powerhouses, perhaps reaching this level was already very good.
But for an existence like Haotian, who was nitpicky, having even a little flaw was a big problem.
The key was how Haotian himself measured this matter.
This kind of thing could be big or small...
Anyway, standing in Haotian's position and status.
Even a small thing could be magnified countless times!
