Daoism Revival System: Start with fighting against Debunker Streamer

Chapter 515 - 514: King of Guangmu: The Buddha Is Truly Wise! [Part 1]

At this moment, the Cang Feng Bodhisattva of the Little Western Heaven also arrived here.

Seen from afar.

Ling Shu Bodhisattva was invigorated, putting on a bright smile, and greeted him with utmost importance.

"Cang Feng Bodhisattva, I’ve been eagerly anticipating your arrival like the stars and the moon," Ling Shu said, speaking with absolute respect for the other, his face beaming with a welcoming smile.

"Haha, how could I refuse your invitation, Ling Shu Bodhisattva?" Cang Feng also smiled broadly, and the two talked as if old friends reunited, with a deep bond.

After the pleasantries, Ling Shu couldn’t help but quietly bring up serious matters.

"Cang Feng Bodhisattva, I ask for your assistance to probe Yellow Eyebrow Ancestor’s intentions, I wonder..."

His eyes looked expectantly at Cang Feng.

Cang Feng chuckled softly: "Bodhisattva, rest assured, Yellow Eyebrow Ancestor has agreed and will be attending the feast shortly."

"That’s wonderful."

Ling Shu, excited, clenched his fist, expressing immense gratitude: "Your matchmaking kindness is like that of a great mentor, and I shall heavily thank you in the future!"

"Please, do come and take the seat of honor!"

He warmly pulled Cang Feng forward, preparing to lead him inside.

Unexpectedly, Immortal Light descended, revealing a familiar figure who came uninvited.

"Guangmu Heavenly King?"

Cang Feng was slightly surprised, looking at Ling Shu with a peculiar gaze, as if to say, isn’t this supposed to be a Bodhisattva banquet? What’s he doing here?

"Guangmu? Why are you here?" Ling Shu couldn’t help but frown slightly at this moment.

Unlike his warm welcome to the other Bodhisattvas, he showed some disdain towards the Guangmu Heavenly King.

"Why, has Ling Shu Bodhisattva become so successful that he doesn’t want to recognize me as an old friend?" Guangmu Heavenly King, straightforward, was greatly displeased by Ling Shu’s disdainful glance.

"It’s not that..." Ling Shu’s smile appeared somewhat awkward.

"If that’s the case, then why didn’t I receive an invitation to this Cyan Ox feast?" Guangmu Heavenly King’s tone was rather dissatisfied.

This drew sidelong glances from several Bodhisattvas yet to enter, who all showed a smile at the spectacle.

It was well-known.

In earlier years, Guangmu Heavenly King and Ling Shu Bodhisattva shared a deep friendship, interacting very closely.

But later, as one continued to hold a nominal title of patrolling Heavenly King, the other smoothly ascended and attained Bodhisattva Path Fruit.

Thus, their interactions gradually ceased.

"When one gains wealth, don’t forget each other" ultimately remains an idealistic concept of scholars.

Examples like Guangmu Heavenly King and Ling Shu Bodhisattva are the norm in human relations.

It surprised everyone that Guangmu Heavenly King, having mingled in the Western Heaven for hundreds of thousands of years, still didn’t grasp this fact...

"No wonder he remains just a mountain patroller." Several Bodhisattvas shook their heads, secretly amused.

Ling Shu’s eyes also revealed annoyance, but since today was his feast, he couldn’t speak too bluntly, so he casually explained:

"Heavenly King, don’t be offended, I’m merely concerned that you’re too busy with your duties to attend, which is why I didn’t invite you. Besides, as you see, today is a special Bodhisattva feast. I’ll make sure to extend the first invitation to you for my next banquet, how about that?"

Every word was polite, but between the lines, it was clear he was urging the Guangmu Heavenly King to leave.

The Guangmu Heavenly King naturally understood the pretense, but he didn’t create a scene. Instead, he coldly said, "Very well, Bodhisattva, there’s no need to worry. This Cyan Ox feast isn’t for me, and I won’t shamelessly attend."

"However, there are orders from above. Recently, spies from other factions have tried to infiltrate our Buddha Country for unscrupulous activities."

"This feast has invited many Bodhisattvas from other Immortal Realms, so I fear someone might be mixed in, thus I need to check things out."

"It’s my duty, so Bodhisattva, please don’t be offended!"

He stood tall, neither humble nor arrogant, speaking with a distant tone, purely businesslike.

"This..."

The remark made several visiting Bodhisattvas frown, showing faint displeasure.

Ling Shu too felt slightly annoyed, but since Guangmu’s words were already laid out, he couldn’t say much more.

After all, even though his position was not high, he was in charge of patrol duties. If something were to happen in the Buddha Country, and he exaggerated and reported on it, it would be difficult to explain.

"If that’s the case, Heavenly King, do as you wish." He nodded helplessly, but his disdain for the Guangmu Heavenly King grew even more apparent.

"Hmph," Guangmu chuckled indifferently, not caring at all.

Wearing armor, he swaggered into the Dao Field.

During the Ancient Celestial Court era,

Bodhisattvas of the Western Buddha Country were not many, a little over twenty in total.

But with the flourishing of the Buddha Country.

Bodhisattvas who attained their paths post-Western Heaven began to increase rapidly.

Over three hundred thousand years, within the Buddha Country and those presiding over Dao Fields outside, the total number reached over two hundred.

And today,

almost a hundred had gathered.

In the magnificent Buddha Palace, all attendees were Bodhisattvas, making it a grand spectacle.

Yet Guangmu’s appearance seemed somewhat out of place.

Many puzzled gazes fell upon him, and as Ling Shu appeared to explain to everyone, they exchanged knowing smiles and whispers.

In their conversation,

inevitably, there was critique and subtle mockery of Guangmu, the old-guard heavenly king, making him rather embarrassed.

At this moment, the ’Buddha’s’ voice transmitted to his ear.

"Something’s amiss, very amiss."

Guangmu’s eyes narrowed as he secretly transmitted, "Has Buddha found something?"

Lin Heng spoke solemnly: "There is a Daoist aura present, but it’s well concealed, indistinguishable from whom it emanates."

"What?" Guangmu was slightly shocked: "The infiltrator in Western Heaven is a Daoist? How bold!"

"Buddha, what should we do?"

Lin Heng pondered and said: "No worries, I have a plan."

"Daoists don’t eat beef, so later, I will transform a special item to resemble beef, and you will serve it to the attendees, forcing them to eat it and observe their reactions!"

"Huh?" Guangmu frowned: "Considering the risk of exposing themselves, even if a Daoist doesn’t want to eat, they probably will, right?"

"Eating it is just fine!"

"The special item I offer can penetrate cultivation techniques and reflect the physical body. If a Daoist truly eats it, their Daoist aura will instantly trigger, making them unable to hide!" Lin Heng fabricated.

Hearing this, Guangmu Heavenly King marveled at the ingenuity.

"Whoever doesn’t eat can be identified, and if they eat, the spy will be revealed!"

"As expected of the Buddha, truly wise beyond measure. My admiration for you is like the ceaseless waters of the great river, like the surging Yellow River, unstoppable!"

Known for his lack of social finesse, Guangmu Heavenly King, at this moment, could not praise ’Buddha’ enough.
