Where are the Five Directions Bodhisattvas?!

The urgent words of the Golden Toad, though revealing some anger and shame from being slapped in the face for his earlier teasing, also happen to be the doubts of many members of the Bodhi Sect.

This time, the Pure World Venerable arranged for the Five Directions Bodhisattva in the Eight Extremes Valley, and this newly promoted Dragon Subduing and Tiger Suppressing Bodhisattva was only supposed to assist, so why is it that he alone has come with the Great Demon?

Shen Yi did not reply.

Instead, the two Dragon Demons behind him bowed respectfully to him, then spoke with lingering fear: "The True God detected the means of the Five Directions Venerable, devised a plan to kill him, and also subdued both of us brothers, fortunately, the Dragon Subduing and Tiger Suppressing Venerable arrived in time, beheaded two Third Grade True Gods, and eradicated all the spirits in the Eight Extremes Valley, saving us in the process!"

Whether it was the words of these two Demon Venerables or their respectful attitude.

They were both shocking to everyone.

One must know, although the Demon Venerables brought by the Seven Treasures Bodhisattva were equally obedient, however... they were released from the Venerable's sleeve and undoubtedly had Buddhist constraints placed upon them.

Completely incomparable to these two Dragon Demons now.

Both being Third Grade Experts, the Dragon Subduing and Tiger Suppressing Bodhisattva actually placed no restrictions, seemingly not worried at all about these two Demon Venerables developing rebellious thoughts or seizing the opportunity to escape midway.

Such actions carried terrifyingly powerful confidence, almost appearing somewhat arrogant.

Everything has a reason.

The reason for this scene may lie hidden within the words just spoken by these two Dragon Demons.

Slaying two Third Grade True Gods, massacring all the spirits in the Eight Extremes Valley.

Such a simple sentence; let alone the Arhats, even the Bodhisattvas present, as well as those demons accustomed to slaughter, felt a tinge of horror at this moment.

Though sometimes strong-armed measures are necessary to prevent accidents.

But this is just... too much!

Even the most hypocritical members of the Bodhi Sect, who preach compassion all year round, will at least show some restraint when acting, but such restraint seems entirely absent from the Dragon Subduing and Tiger Suppressing Bodhisattva.

This person has done only two things since entering the sect: spreading scriptures for the Great Sect and subduing Demon Venerables.

All involved are renowned figures.

But left alive... only half a person.

That half being the Taixu Pill Emperor, whose life and death remain unknown to this day.

The opponent seems born for the great calamity, with an innate killing destiny!

"..."

The Seven Treasures Bodhisattva slightly furrowed his brow.

"Why is it that every time with you, these disturbances arise." Although the Golden Toad Bodhisattva's words contained undiminished hostility, he grudgingly retreated.

After all, the True God had prior knowledge, something we ourselves brought up first.

Furthermore, having battled the True Gods, one realizes the terrifying power these beings, born at the dawn of creation, truly possess.

He, along with the Tianluo Bodhisattva, and with two Demon Venerables aiding, took four to barely suppress and kill two True Gods, even losing a Demon Venerable in the process.

This person can accomplish these tasks alone, showing strength that cannot be underestimated.

Even feeling somewhat slighted, the Golden Toad Bodhisattva had to temporarily endure, being a Disciple of the Future Buddha, it was unnecessary to quarrel and lose decorum with those of uncertain prospects.

"..."

Shen Yi gave him a brief, indifferent glance before retracting his gaze.

In the eyes of the crowd, the meaning of disregard could not be more apparent, yet no one found it inappropriate.

He quietly settled upon the lotus leaf, whether Arhats or demons, all spontaneously made way for him.

At this moment, Shen Yi turned to pay respect to the Seven Treasures Bodhisattva.

Not to mention others, even the Seven Treasures Venerable himself was somewhat astonished, though he surpassed the other in both sect seniority and strength, here and now, the other was certainly in the limelight, not even considering the Golden Toad.

With a slight hesitation, he quickly raised his hand in return: "The Venerable seems familiar."

"I have listened to sermons under your guidance before."

Shen Yi nodded slightly, unexpectedly bringing up the past on his own: "However, I had urgent matters at the time and could not reveal myself to acknowledge you."

"..."

The Seven Treasures Bodhisattva was silent for a moment, his earlier frown had been due to recalling the events on He Mountain.

At the boundary of a Third Grade Venerable, past events are vividly remembered, how could he forget that back when he held a sermon, this individual, coming as a disciple of Shenxu Mountain with Ye Lan, was seated prominently.

Now, the other bringing this up on his own dissolved much of his suspicion.

After all, the Thousand-Armed Bodhisattva is arguably the deepest-involved Venerable, and this Dragon Subduing and Tiger Suppressing Bodhisattva was introduced into the sect by him personally, certainly having done many things in the human world beforehand.

"Consider it fate."

The Seven Treasures Bodhisattva smiled gently, agreeing to the matter.

Seeing that the two Venerables actually knew each other already, the atmosphere in the venue immediately eased somewhat.

"Would the Venerable like to take charge?"

The Seven Treasures Bodhisattva politely gestured, indicating Shen Yi should lead the situation.

"I'm not good at these, it would be better for you to do it."

Shen Yi shook his head, his gentle and peaceful demeanor starkly different from his cold composure at the beginning.

"In that case, this old monk will not decline." The Seven Treasures Bodhisattva slowly walked forward.

In just a few words, the two had made a decision, yet seemed to deliberately overlook the nearby Golden Toad.

The gazes of numerous Arhats quietly swept over the two young Bodhisattvas.

No matter in Southern Sumeru, outside, the status between the two has subtly shifted.

"These today are the generous gifts from our sect to make amends for past mistakes."
