Chapter 1084: Chapter 329: Zhunti’s Betrayal (Part 4)
Zhunti actually defected, which he did not expect.
In Tianpeng’s eyes, a boundless fury flashed.
“Go invite Tathagata Buddha and Amitabha Buddha.”
Tianpeng said.
Although he didn’t know what was going on, he thought that the two could explain it to him.
As for Tathagata Buddha and Amitabha Buddha, they certainly wouldn’t do such a thing as defecting.
One received the Heavenly Court’s grace and became the Lord of the Buddhist Realm.
While Tathagata Buddha, although ambitious, is a sensible person.
He actually understands very well which side has the advantage now, the Heavenly Court or Emperor Jun.
The side of Emperor Jun, appearing strong, is merely that in appearance.
They have no foundation in the Three Realms, like floating duckweed without roots, their survival itself being a question.
The current Heavenly Court is growing day by day, though currently not as strong as Emperor Jun’s side.
But their potential is enormous.
With The Three Pure Ones behind them, resisting the pressure from Emperor Jun’s side is not a problem.
Surpassing the Divine Dynasty created by Emperor Jun and Eastern Emperor Tai Yi in the future is only a matter of time.
There’s even a possibility that the Ziwei Heavenly Court will create an even stronger Divine Dynasty.
Now is the most chaotic time in the Three Realms, with The Primordial and descendants of living beings, and previous generations’ Divine Dynasties converging with the current Divine Dynasty in one era, this is both a test and an opportunity for the Heavenly Court.
To abandon the Heavenly Court to seek those like Emperor Jun who have exhausted their potential is utterly foolish.
Tathagata Buddha is very wise, naturally, he wouldn’t do such a thing.
Mu Zha hurried to find the two of them.
Before long, Amitabha Buddha and Tathagata Buddha arrived.
“Zhunti has defected.”
Tianpeng said calmly.
Amitabha Buddha’s face darkened, and he said angrily, “That traitor, I warned him yesterday, I didn’t expect he still made such a choice.”
“I also met Zhunti yesterday and warned him.”
Rukai Buddha Ancestor said.
Tianpeng looked at the two in confusion and asked, “What happened yesterday?”
The two explained to Tianpeng, recounting what happened yesterday.
Amitabha Buddha, somewhat displeased, said unhappily, “Why were Sun Mother and Mother Moon the ones to visit you, whereas it was Ji Meng who came to me? Who’s being looked down upon? Is this old monk not worthy of an Empress of Heaven personally coming?”
He was very disgruntled, feeling somewhat inferior to Tathagata Buddha and the others.
Tathagata Buddha was speechless, giving Amitabha Buddha a look, what’s there to compare?
Besides, Ji Meng is the First Marshal under Emperor Jun, if we talk about status and strength, he may not necessarily be inferior to Sun Mother and Mother Moon, Amitabha Buddha is being too petty.
Tianpeng couldn’t help but smile wryly; is now really the time to talk about this?
He quickly interrupted the two and said, “I invited you two to ask how we should handle Zhunti’s matter. After all, he is a great power in the Buddhist Realm.”
Amitabha Buddha sneered coldly and said, “What’s there to say about a traitor? Kill him if he should be killed, why keep him around?”
Tathagata Buddha said in a deep voice, “This seat is also of the same opinion, kill him if he should be killed, there’s no need to keep him.”
Their meaning was very clear, which was to eliminate Zhunti, no need to keep him.
Even Tianpeng did not expect the two to be so decisive.
He thought for a moment before saying, “Since both of you say so, I will report this matter truthfully to Great Emperor Ziwei. As for how the Great Emperor will handle it, that’s not for us to interfere.”
“Good.”
“Agreed.”
Amitabha Buddha and Tathagata Buddha both agreed.
With Zhunti defecting, they are now the two strongest in the Buddhist Realm.
Since they have both abandoned Zhunti, naturally, no one would continue to vouch for Zhunti.
In the Ziwei Heavenly Court, when Tianpeng’s memorial reached Great Emperor Ziwei, it immediately darkened his face.
All the immortals were somewhat alarmed, clearly noticing that Great Emperor Ziwei was displeased.
They didn’t know why, but none dared to speak at this moment for fear of provoking Great Emperor Ziwei’s anger.
Finally, Yang Jian spoke: “Your Majesty, what happened?”
Great Emperor Ziwei’s expression softened slightly, and he said coldly, “Zhunti has defected and joined Emperor Jun’s camp.”
As these words were spoken, everyone was taken aback.
No one expected that just after a great battle, Zhunti would defect.
For the side of the Heavenly Court, this was undoubtedly a significant blow.
It might even lead to much speculation, with some thinking Zhunti had no hope for the Heavenly Court and hence defected to Emperor Jun’s camp.
The impact on the Heavenly Court is substantial.
No wonder Great Emperor Ziwei was so furious, this matter regarding Zhunti really touched the Heavenly Court’s reverse scale.
