775: Chapter 267: The New Supreme_5 775: Chapter 267: The New Supreme_5 No one had expected that the first Supreme to arrive would be this one, one of the ten most ferocious beings of the Primordial era.
Jin Chan personally welcomed the guest.
As the Second Disciple of Buddha and the true person in power at Mount Ling, Jin Chan’s personal reception accorded considerable respect to the other party.
Soon, Tathagata Buddha would certainly accompany them in person.
The Nine-Headed Exotic Beast landed in front of the gates of Mount Ling, and the Golden Body stepped out from the carriage.
Unexpectedly, the Golden God was a woman.
She was tall, wore a short skirt, and had long, straight legs.
Her clothes covered only the essential parts, exposing a lot of skin.
Her attire was primitive, as if she had just emerged from a barbaric era, but it wasn’t unattractive; there was a raw allure to it, and her graceful figure captivated everyone in sight.
The Golden God’s beauty was breathtaking, her demeanor cool and filled with a mature charm.
This one of the ten most ferocious beings of the Primordial era turned out to be astonishingly beautiful.
Even Jin Chan couldn’t help being surprised, then exclaimed, “I never imagined that the Golden God would be such a beautiful goddess.
I had thought the Golden God to be a man just moments ago.
The ten most ferocious of the Primordial truly live up to their reputation, with an allure that astounds the world.”
“So what if I’m a woman?
Does that make me inferior to a man?”
the Golden God said coldly.
Realizing his remarks might be misconstrued, Jin Chan laughed and said, “It’s just a worldly prejudice.
This junior was wrong.
Please, senior, come in.”
The Golden God glanced at Jin Chan, handed her gift to Arhat Dragon-Subduing on the side, and then walked in.
She found Jin Chan’s explanation acceptable.
At this moment, Sun Wukong arrived with Nu Ba.
“My disciple, you’re here, that’s great!
Come in, and we’ll have a good talk later.
Your master has heard about your deeds.
It’s truly satisfying.”
Jin Chan said with a smile.
Nu Ba presented the gift she had prepared, ready to hand it over.
But Jin Chan intercepted it with a gesture.
“We’re all family here, why bother with gifts?
Keep it, don’t make Tathagata that old monk richer.
By the way, daughter-in-law, this is for you.
I don’t know what it is, but since it was given to that old monk by the Golden God, it must be something good.
Consider it a welcome gift from your master.”
Jin Chan snatched the gift originally presented by the Golden God from Arhat Dragon-Subduing and stuffed it into Nu Ba’s hands, wearing a beaming smile on his face.
Arhat Dragon-Subduing opened his mouth to speak but dared not say anything.
It was Jin Chan’s wish; what could he say?
Inside the great hall, Tathagata was entertaining the Golden God.
His Divine Thought sensed this scene, and his face darkened instantly.
However, the Golden God was slightly taken aback before she chuckled and said, “Your disciple is quite interesting.”
Tathagata Buddha sighed, “The sect’s misfortune, who knew that such a calamitous disciple would be taken in?
Even the thought of disciplining you is now impossible.”
Hearing Tathagata Buddha’s words, a trace of a smile appeared on the Golden God’s stunning and cool face: “My friend, you’re being too modest.
Your disciple is extraordinary.
Leaving other things aside, just the disciple he has taken on is enough to make many envy you.”
Tathagata Buddha gave a wry smile.
Sun Wukong was indeed formidable, but only if he would be obedient.
Tathagata Buddha was certain that if a conflict were to arise between him and the Heavenly Court, Sun Wukong would be the first to strike at him.
The pair stopped their discussion, as Sun Wukong and Nu Ba entered.
“Congratulations on becoming a Supreme, old Tathagata,”
Sun Wukong said cheerfully.
Tathagata Buddha stood up to greet him.
Although Sun Wukong was only a Sub-Paramount, his status and influence were second to none compared to a Supreme.
Even the proud Golden God nodded slightly to Sun Wukong and greeted him, not treating him like an ordinary Great Heavenly Venerate.
After all, which of the ordinary Great Heavenly Venerates could kill a Supreme?
“Thank you, Great Saint.
Please, take a seat.”
He invited Sun Wukong to sit, and Nu Ba took her seat next to Sun Wukong.
The Golden God studied Sun Wukong with curiosity, as well as Nu Ba by his side, clearly intrigued by them.
The Supremes of the Primordial knew Sun Wukong’s name.
But they lacked an understanding of him.
Now observing up close, the Golden God could sense the formidable power within Sun Wukong, which, although not equal to a Supreme’s, was still astonishingly strong for those below that level.
Furthermore, Sun Wukong’s methods were extraordinary, and the destructive power he could unleash in battle was far greater than anyone imagined.
The next moment, another visitor arrived – it was Yang Jian.
Hearing that Yang Jian had come, Sun Wukong was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, “Looks like Ziwei still doesn’t trust you fully, Tathagata.
You’ll have to prove yourself.”
Tathagata Buddha chuckled bitterly, fully aware of this point.
If Gold Star Taibai had come, it would have indicated that Great Emperor Ziwei had complete trust in him.
If Yang Jian had come, the intent to intimidate him was clear, signifying that Great Emperor Ziwei did not fully trust him.
At the same time, sending Yang Jian also served to deter Tathagata Buddha, warning him not to get any ideas.
Yang Jian had a track record of slaying Supremes, so Tathagata Buddha naturally had to be wary.
Tathagata Buddha went out to meet him, as Yang Jian’s current status was that of the Judicial Deity, even tantamount to the Second Heavenly Emperor.
He dared not neglect him; doing so would be disrespectful to the Heavenly Court.
Also, Yang Jian’s visit granted considerable face to Tathagata Buddha.
It demonstrated the Heavenly Court’s regard for Tathagata Buddha.
Tathagata Buddha stepped forward and exchanged greetings with Yang Jian.
Yang Jian, with a solemn expression, said in a deep voice: “I’m here on behalf of Great Emperor Ziwei to congratulate Tathagata Buddha on becoming a Supreme.
Also, Great Emperor Ziwei hopes that after Buddha is done here, he will pay a visit to the Heavenly Court.
Great Emperor Ziwei intends to bestow an honor upon Tathagata Buddha.”
