Su Mo's eyes slightly darkened. So, it's true, his master has already been captured. It's fortunate he didn't act impulsively, otherwise, he would've flattened the Buddhist Sect right away.
He hadn't even stirred up any chaotic displays.
It was enough to frighten the Buddhist Sect, though Su Mo found it strange that, previously, when he arrived at Beiji Heaven, the heavens had caused a commotion.
Why was there no movent this ti upon descending to Western Heaven?
Nevertheless, it was all for the best, allowing him to scout the situation.
In fact, Su Mo completely misunderstood. Previously, when he arrived at Beiji Heaven, the grand spectacle caused by the heavens was mainly due to Su Mo's inner desire to not be low-key.
This intention was conveyed to Beiji Heaven's Heavenly Dao, leading to the manifestations in the sky.
This ti, Su Mo ca to Western Heaven, not wanting to make a big show, primarily to avoid alerting others.
Although the Heavenly Dao lacks intelligence, it has so sense, and creating sky-wide manifestations was rely a form of flattery.
If soone doesn't wish for such fanfare, yet it still happens, it's like a complint that backfires.
Moreover, according to normal circumstances, entities intending to enter the Nine Heavens usually are not allowed; if necessary, it's typically an avatar or sothing similar.
A grand entrance is rare, and even when it does happen, it's done discreetly.
If soone descends secretly to avoid detection, and it is still made into a grand spectacle, it's asking for trouble.
At this mont, not only Su Mo but even the surrounding crowd perked their ears, eager for the excitent, a trait not exclusive to people on Earth but common elsewhere as well.
Especially when it cos to gossip about the mighty Buddhist Sect.
Sixteen years ago, the Buddhist Sect suddenly descended and, upon arrival in Western Heaven, quickly established a grand foundation. In just ten years, through their propagation thod, they stood atop Western Heaven.
The incident they stirred recently was no small matter, so hearing soone speak of it naturally piqued everyone's curiosity.
Of course, it's not just these people paying attention here; even Daoist Venerable-level experts in the Void of the Nine Heavens are watching closely.
Especially the five Daoist Venerables of Western Heaven, who previously expressed a desire to curry favor with Su Mo. But since Su Mo wasn't interested in eting them, they could only watch quietly, looking for a chance to ingratiate themselves.
When they saw sothing truly intriguing, their eyes glead, rembering the origins of the Buddhist Sect.
Throughout the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, even in these recent tens of thousands of years, there has been no battle involving Daoist Master-level experts. Any grudges have been managed appropriately.
True battles rarely occurred, yet twenty years ago, there was a sudden battle at the Dao Ancestor level, resulting in the death of eight Daoist Masters!
Even the Dao Sect had to pay attention to such a matter.
Thereafter erged the Insect Race and Buddha Race, two races highly likely to reach venerable status.
Upon further reflection, no one has ever known Su Mo's origins. Now, it seems, he might also be soone who erged from that Little Cosmos.
Perhaps he has a significant connection to the Buddhist Sect, and his visit to Western Heaven is to check on their developnt.
Thinking this, the Daoist Venerables of the West couldn't help but feel smug. They had long seen the Buddhist Sect's great potential for developnt, so they never imposed any restrictions on it.
They even previously instructed their subordinate forces to avoid offending the Buddhist Sect deliberately.
Now, it seems, when Su Mo is truly ready to reveal his identity, they can rush to flatter him just like when they learned of his presence and explain how they have safeguarded the Buddhist Sect over the years.
This connection could be established very quickly.
Thinking this, they even began tidying their attire, ready at any mont to enter Western Heaven.
The speaker casually took a sip of tea, then lightly cleared his throat:
"How we handled that person, I won't say for now. Let ask you all, if you encountered such a situation, how would you handle it?
Perhaps so of you aren't aware of this person's relationship with the Buddhist Sect, so let tell you in detail.
Rumor has it that this person has so ties to the Buddha, and they co from the sa lineage. Because the Buddhist Sect once did sothing that displeased him, he stood at their gate cursing for a whole ten years.
The Buddhist Sect, considering their shared lineage and past grievances, never acted against him all these years, but now they have. What do you think will happen to him?"
"No need to say, the Buddhist Sect didn't act before out of tolerance, but enduring such insults for so long, who could stand it?"
"Exactly, I've always said our monks are too soft-hearted. If soone weaker than dared to curse at my doorstep, even if there was a prior relationship, if I couldn't kill them, I'd cripple them to make them understand that power speaks the loudest in this world."
"This brother speaks the truth. Forget a lineage issue; even if the neighbor next door curses , I'd go after them with a knife. Moreover, this person has been doing it for ten years straight. Who could bear that?
No matter how good-tempered soone is, they'd react. If soone weaker expressed displeasure and left after venting, maybe none of this would've happened."
"What nonsense, it seems like it's all about saving face for the Buddhist Sect. They didn't act at first to show how magnanimous they are, but now they've reached their limit. If they can restrain themselves forever, then don't act."
"Look at you. Clearly, you haven't studied Buddhist texts. Though Buddhism preaches purity and salvation for all, there's also a wrathful, protective aspect. They typically don't interfere unless things are taken too far."
The teahouse was filled with lively debate.
However, Su Mo's face grew increasingly gloomy. Chu Tian, holding his teacup, listened quietly.
His fists were clenched tightly, at so unknown point in ti.
At the sa ti, Su Mo had already prepared himself. If his master faced any issues, he saw no reason to remain here any longer.
Thinking of this, a cold glint flashed in Su Mo's eyes.
"Alright, no need for speculation; let tell you. That day, the Buddhist Sect mobilized thousands of Buddhist Soldiers to trap him outside Dragon Sect. Subsequently, a great battle erupted among the three World Honored Ones due to differing beliefs. Afterward, the person cursing at the gate of Buddhism was never seen again. You understand what that ans, right?"
[Boom!]
