Chapter 978: Chapter 978: Maitreya: My work is Hell-Level difficulty
Beep beep beep!
Jiang Liu was sitting on the White Dragon Horse, heading westward on their journey when suddenly, a notification sounded in his mind.
Hearing the sound, Jiang Liu naturally pulled up his friend list and saw that Gaoyang’s avatar was blinking.
Jiang Liu opened the ssage.
“Everything’s settled, Xueyu has accepted as her mother.”
Seeing this ssage, Jiang Liu was shocked, feeling incredibly surprised, and quickly sent a ssage back: “How did you manage that!?”
“It’s simple, hit with a stick, then give a jujube!” Gaoyang quickly replied with a ssage.
“Hit with a stick? Give a jujube?” Gaoyang’s words made Jiang Liu’s mouth twitch slightly.
Is it really that simple? If it were that simple, should I have used this thod earlier as well?
However, thinking about it, if he himself tried to hit Xueyu, he believed that before he could give a jujube, Xueyu would already be fighting for her life with him, right?
After all, her resentnt towards him was so deep that such a simple thod would only work for Gaoyang; he himself couldn’t do it.
“In that case, Xueyu will require more of your effort!” Shaking his head, knowing it was impossible for him to achieve this, Jiang Liu sent a ssage to Gaoyang.
“Don’t worry, I’m her only mother, and she’s my only daughter, so of course I’ll teach her with care!” Gaoyang replied, which secretly reassured Jiang Liu.
…
Over at the Netherworld Blood Sea, after Gaoyang and Jiang Liu ended their call, she looked at Xueyu beside her.
Looking at Gaoyang, Xueyu’s expression no longer had the initial resistance.
Perhaps she had been subdued, or perhaps after being hit, the act of this newfound motherly figure applying ointnt on her made Xueyu feel motherly love.
So, although Xueyu hadn’t fully accepted Gaoyang yet, at least there wasn’t the strong rejection there was before.
After all, the object of Xueyu’s resentnt was only Jiang Liu, and her anger toward Gaoyang was just misdirected.
“It seems that this relationship needs to be built slowly…” Seeing Xueyu stare at her, Gaoyang murmured to herself.
After pondering for a mont, she roughly ca up with a thod to handle all this.
“Alright, this ointnt is no ordinary product. This injury of yours, after applying it, should heal in about four or five days!” Having applied the ointnt, Gaoyang sat down beside Xueyu.
“Okay, I understand!” Xueyu nodded slightly, responding.
Logically speaking, after confirming their relationship, and having t, even applying ointnt, she should be leaving, right?
Honestly, having just acknowledged such a mother, being alone together now, Xueyu felt a bit awkward, not knowing what to say at all.
So, she was sowhat hoping she’d leave soon.
However, after waiting for a long ti with no sign of leaving, Xueyu couldn’t help but ask, “You, do you have anything else?”
“Didn’t I say already?” Turning to glance at Xueyu, Gaoyang replied, “With this ointnt, it will take about four or five days to heal. Naturally, I’ll stay here until you’re healed before leaving!”
“It’s not necessary, I can manage myself. You’re managing the whole Ming Sect, shouldn’t there be a lot to handle?” Hearing Gaoyang’s words, she’d be staying for four or five days? Xueyu was a bit anxious.
“Though Ming Sect’s matters are important, your injury is equally important. Enough, I’ll leave once you’re healed, that’s settled!” Gaoyang’s words were assertive, not giving Xueyu any room to argue.
Alright then, with things said to this extent, arguing would be useless, so what else is there to say?
Xueyu opened her mouth but chose to remain silent.
“By the way, Xueyu, don’t you think your father’s disposition is sowhat poor?” Perhaps out of boredom, Gaoyang suddenly started a casual conversation with Xueyu.
“Poor!?”
If Gaoyang were to indoctrinate positive opinions about Jiang Liu, Xueyu would certainly resent it, but Gaoyang seed to be about to badmouth Jiang Liu? Naturally, Xueyu was quite interested.
“Yes, think about it. He’s a Buddhist disciple, right? But he drinks alcohol and eats at without hesitation!” Gaoyang nodded, listing Jiang Liu’s shortcomings while counting on her fingers.
“Moreover, as a monk, he should cultivate himself, but no? Instead, he invented gambling gas like Mahjong and poker cards!”
“Another thing, as a monk, he should be compassionate, yet on his journey westward, the lives lost at his hands are countless!”
…
To be honest, with each fault Gaoyang pointed out about Jiang Liu, Xueyu felt a little closer to Gaoyang.
The more she picked apart Jiang Liu’s flaws, the more Xueyu felt a sense of kinship with her.
Four or five days may not be long, but it’s not short either.
In the past few days, Gaoyang has been staying with Xueyu. At first, she defeated her fiercely, then personally applied ointnt to her, even expressing her willingness to stay for her, putting aside many matters of the Ming Sect.
During these days together, Gaoyang kept talking about Jiang Liu’s shortcomings, indicating she was on the sa side as Xueyu.
So, in just a few days, the relationship between Gaoyang and Xueyu has grown much closer.
Though it wasn’t like a real mother-daughter relationship, nowadays, when Xueyu calls her ‘mother’, there’s hardly any rejection.
Everything happening in the Blood Sea naturally cannot be hidden from Ancestor Minghe’s eyes. For Gaoyang’s actions over these days, Ancestor Minghe has taken notice.
He nodded slightly in approval, feeling satisfied, thinking that she truly deserves the attention of Sect Master Tongtian; she indeed has her ways.
Although on the surface, Gaoyang continually spoke of Xuanzang’s shortcomings, Ancestor Minghe naturally saw that her initial strategy was to build a good relationship with Xueyu.
If the relationship between the mother and daughter was established well, as the diator, easing the relationship between Xueyu and Xuanzang, the father and daughter, would surely beco much easier.
“Yes, yes…” Feeling quite satisfied, Ancestor Minghe secretly praised Gaoyang’s deeds.
In a blink, a few days passed, and indeed, under Gaoyang’s ticulous application of ointnt, Xueyu’s swollen buttocks had already healed.
On this day, Gaoyang opened her mouth to bid farewell to Xueyu.
“Xueyu, your injuries have healed. For now, I’ll return to the Ming Sect! During these days, stay in the Blood Sea and cultivate well! Understand?” Gaoyang said to Xueyu.
“Um, understood!” Xueyu nodded, without a hint of resentnt in front of Gaoyang.
“If you have the chance to co to the Mortal World, you can co to the Ming Sect to find . Of course, if I have free ti, I will co to find you too!” Gaoyang said, reaching out to pat Xueyu’s head.
“Okay, I understand!” Xueyu nodded in response.
After bidding farewell properly, Gaoyang soon turned her attention to Ancestor Minghe beside her, saying, “Sect Hierarch, please take care of the young girl’s matters!”
“Of course! No need to worry!” Ancestor Minghe nodded slightly, responding.
After greeting Ancestor Minghe, Gaoyang didn’t say much more, and with a movent, she left the Netherworld Blood Sea and returned to the Mortal World.
Xueyu said nothing more, only watching Gaoyang leave.
Ancestor Minghe glanced at Xueyu’s expression, the corners of his mouth slightly raising, saying, “Xueyu, it appears you seem to like this mother quite a lot!”
“She wasn’t bad to !” Xueyu thought for a mont, responding to Ancestor Minghe’s words.
“Indeed, she has good feelings for Princess Gaoyang; maybe, it’s truly because of the mother-daughter bond!” Ancestor Minghe nodded in agreent internally upon hearing Xueyu’s response.
The most ruthless are least afraid of those who feed on blood, but are afraid of those who treat them sincerely and kindly!
This seems to fit Xueyu quite well.
Born as a Demon Infant, Xueyu’s evil disposition is understandable, but Gaoyang managed to gain her acknowledgnt; naturally, her power is one aspect, but another is Gaoyang’s heartfelt kindness, right?
Heaven is indeed unfair to Xueyu because after drinking the water from the Child-Mother River, she never had a mother, while at least Lingyu has a biological mother.
However, heaven is also fair to Xueyu. Precisely because she does not have a biological mother, Gaoyang can truly treat her as her own.
If one wants Gaoyang to treat Lingyu like she does Xueyu? That should be impossible.
“Alright, go back and cultivate!” Ancestor Minghe felt quite satisfied with the mother-daughter bond between Xueyu and Gaoyang.
After pondering for a mont internally, he summoned Xueyu to go cultivate.
…
“Difficult, difficult, difficult!”
Speaking of which, over at the Netherworld Blood Sea, no matter the current situation there, over on the other side, at the rebuilt Eastern Temple, Maitreya Buddha’s face was filled with an expression of distress as he touched his big bald head.
If he had hair, Maitreya Buddha might have lost a lot already.
As the Coordinator of the Journey to the West, Maitreya Buddha, at this mont, felt that his work was incredibly difficult, at a Hell-Level.
First of all, the Calamity Book is gone, and he doesn’t even know how many calamities the Journey to the West for Scriptures will have.
Secondly, the current Scripture Seeking Team has strength that seems sowhat overwhelming, right?
A few days ago, even that mysterious person was defeated by Xuanzang and others?
Such terrifying strength, how exactly can one create calamities for them?
In recent days, he has summoned not a few Heavenly Court and Buddhist Sect experts to descend to the Lower Realm to et calamity.
Yet, they’ve all rejected him.
