#1687 - Chu Hao: You didn't expect that the relic is here with me.

The Buddhas were also angered to death by the Shadow Demon's impervious attitude. They really didn't expect this Shadow Demon to be so bold, even daring to joke and laugh on this Western Heaven.
No, it wasn't just joking and laughing; this Shadow Demon was even pointing fingers and scolding the Buddhas.
Dipamkara Buddha looked at Tathagata Buddha and said directly:
"Tathagata Buddha, this fiend does not know repentance and deserves to die. Why not directly suppress him under the foot of Mount Ling, allowing him to be baptized by the spiritual light of the Western Heaven day and night, so that this fiend converts to Buddhism."
Dipamkara Buddha had calmed down and didn't say he wanted to kill that little bastard. However, suppressing him under the foot of Mount Ling, while useless, was a form of revenge.
However, Tathagata Buddha chuckled and said:
"Dipamkara Buddha, listen to my words. Since this fiend is the Left General of the Demon Clan, we should try our best to persuade him to abandon darkness and turn to the light. Especially now that the Demon Clan is in power, it would be a great fortune if this fiend could obediently join our Western Heaven!"
A trace of displeasure flashed in Dipamkara Buddha's eyes. It was like this again, like this again!
Since his one failure, his say in this Western Heaven had become less and less. No one respected him, the Past Buddha, anymore; no one would recognize him as the Past Buddha!
Dipamkara Buddha coldly snorted,
"This fiend is unrepentant. I fear you will waste too much time on him. Don't say you weren't warned."
Dipamkara Buddha also used the phrase 'Don't say you weren't warned,' clearly wanting to shirk responsibility.
How could Tathagata Buddha not notice Dipamkara Buddha's dissatisfaction? Just as Tathagata Buddha wanted to appease him, he suddenly heard the Shadow Demon say:
"Tathagata, tell me your thoughts and conditions. If it's you, we might be able to talk."
Tathagata Buddha: "…"
This brat, is he setting me up?
A master of inciting discord?
Sure enough, when Tathagata Buddha looked over, he saw that Dipamkara Buddha's face was even darker. Clearly, Dipamkara Buddha felt slighted, slighted by a demon, and even surpassed by Tathagata Buddha in public!
The dissatisfaction in Dipamkara Buddha's heart ignited once again.
He, the most senior Buddha, seemed to be losing his authority, replaced by this Tathagata Buddha, who was gradually sidelining him!
As anger arose, it could not be extinguished.
Chu Hao also grasped this point and proactively said to Tathagata Buddha:
"If you want me to betray the Demon Clan, that is absolutely impossible. However, if you want me to deceive Hell God Chu Hao, I am willing to give it a try."
Tathagata Buddha raised an eyebrow,
"It seems you already have an idea in mind? Tell me about it."
The Shadow Demon said directly:
"Now that Hell God is obsessed with the relics, I can be your bridge to lure him out. Then, you can deal with him as you please, and I just want freedom."
Tathagata Buddha chuckled. 'I believe you? You old codger is very bad!' He didn't know whether he would be sold out or Chu Hao would be sold out.
However, the matter in the Kingdom of Jisa was not resolved, and Tathagata Buddha was also very anxious. The most urgent task now was to complete this task first.
As for the rest, he was not in a hurry at all, especially letting the Shadow Demon go back. It was even more impossible to let the duck that had just been caught fly away.
Tathagata Buddha pondered for a moment and said:
"I am not in a hurry for you to deal with Hell God Chu Hao. The important thing now is to return the relics of the Kingdom of Jisa to Jin Guang Temple and exchange back the things that my Western Heaven previously gave to your Demon Clan."
The Shadow Demon smiled slightly,
"They're gone."
The Buddhas present were stunned for three full seconds,
"What things? What do you mean they're gone?"
The Shadow Demon spread his hands helplessly,
"To be honest, when Dipamkara Buddha captured me back, I don't know where I dropped the things.
Well, I know you don't believe me, but you only need to scan my body with your divine sense to know."
The Buddhas were furious and quickly scanned the Shadow Demon.
The Shadow Demon let go of his defenses, being extremely generous, and straightforwardly allowed the Buddhas to see the treasures on his body.
Apart from some of the Shadow Demon's own weapons, there was nothing else!
When the Buddhas saw this, their hearts turned cold.
Was this considered losing a watermelon to pick up a sesame seed?
No, the important thing now was, where did the things go?
If they were still in the hands of the Demon Clan, the problem wouldn't be too big. But if they fell into the hands of Hell God, then Western Heaven would be in big trouble!
Tathagata Buddha was very nervous,
"Think carefully, where exactly did you lose the things? Also, Dipamkara Buddha, please recall. Such treasures must be treated with caution!"
The Shadow Demon spread his hands,
"I don't know. Perhaps someone picked them up."
Just kidding, when the Shadow Demon got the things, he secretly hid them somewhere for Chu Hao to take.
The Buddhas looked at Dipamkara Buddha, with a hint of questioning in their eyes.
Dipamkara Buddha was furious and frantic,
"What are you looking at me for! I worked so hard to bring this fiend to justice. Would I take those things away?"
Guanyin Bodhisattva coughed lightly,
"Dipamkara Buddha, don't misunderstand. We didn't mean to suspect you, but we just want you to think about where those things roughly fell, so we can retrieve them.
You also know that if Hell God Chu Hao picks up these things, the danger to our Western Heaven will increase exponentially!"
Dipamkara Buddha's mouth twitched. Wasn't this still questioning his incompetence?!
Damn it, there wasn't a single good person here!
He, a dignified Past Buddha, was reduced to doing odd jobs for them, and going to catch a small fry was already shameless enough. Now they were even questioning him? Were they not giving him enough face!
Dipamkara Buddha was also very angry and coldly snorted,
"You all should stop guessing. That Hell God Chu Hao doesn't have any real ability. I was quick and ruthless in capturing the Shadow Demon, leaving no trace behind. How could Hell God Chu Hao possibly…"
"— Report, outside Mount Ling, Hell God Chu Hao claims to have obtained the relics of the Kingdom of Jisa and requests an audience!"
The reporter's voice plunged the scene into dead silence.
Everyone looked at each other,
But everyone found that the expressions on everyone's faces were the same—pale!
Damn, how could the relics of the Kingdom of Jisa be with Chu Hao!?
Was this such a coincidence?
The Buddhas suddenly remembered something and looked at Dipamkara Buddha, with even more suspicion in their eyes.
Dipamkara Buddha was still confidently saying that he was quick and ruthless, leaving no trace behind, but he was afraid that Chu Hao had picked it up as soon as he left!
Moreover, no one noticed!
Dipamkara Buddha's ability to handle affairs was not even as good as White Lotus Boy!
When Dipamkara Buddha saw that the Buddhas were still questioning him, the anger in his heart rose up!
