The Buddhist saints who have dominated the Western Paradise for thousands of years have always been in the left ear and out of the right ear for the imperial edict of the Heavenly Court. To put it nicely, it is called listening to the tune but not listening to the preaching. To put it bluntly, it is not taking the Heavenly Court seriously!

As the second-ranked figure in Buddhism, Amitabha Buddha relied on his strength to become king in the Western Paradise. When was the Heavenly Court so blatantly worn through his shoes?

However! The current situation is not enough for Amitabha Buddha to be picky... This is the Heavenly Court, the Lingxiao Palace, and the Jade Emperor who leads all the saints and controls the heavens. This is the power given by the way of heaven!

There is an unfathomable Taishang Laojun staring at him. Zhao Qingshan shamelessly chose to read the imperial edict in public. How could he not accept it? Do he dare not accept it?!

After all, Buddhism is also part of the Heavenly Court. Although the Jade Emperor favors Taoism, he is also considered a god who is neither Taoism nor Buddhism nor Confucianism, and he definitely has the power to issue orders to Buddhism.

If it weren't for the Lingxiao Palace, Amitabha would have avoided it and sent his subordinates to deal with it. He wouldn't even look at the imperial edict, and he wouldn't have known it at all, and the Heavenly Court would have no choice but to do anything to him.

But now... Zhao Qingshan, the Jade Emperor with no lower limit, actually put his shoes on him so blatantly in front of the immortal gods in the palace, and directly forced him into a dilemma of being unable to advance or retreat.

He has to accept this imperial edict even if he doesn't! Otherwise, it will be deemed to be a real person. If Zhao Qingshan takes the opportunity to get angry, the Emperor Taishang is accomplices of the tiger... How can he withstand the threat of the immortal gods in the palace?

Disrespectfulness of the order is also a great sin. At the least, it is deprived of Buddha's teachings, and the god's position is demoted to the mortal world for a lifetime. At the worst, it is demoted to reincarnation. If you are accidentally killed, it will be annihilated by the soul!

After the expression on Amitabha's face changed repeatedly, he finally had to lower his proud head. Zhao Qingshan occupied the commanding heights. Once he met, it would be normal to be eaten by someone!

A long sighed in his heart. Amitabha Buddha slowly bowed to Zhao Qingshan, and said without kneeling down, "Since His Majesty's order has been issued, I have to accept the order..."

Anyone with a discerning eye could see Amitabha's reluctance. Only Zhao Qingshan pretended to have no idea of ​​anything, stood up from the dragon throne with a smile, took the imperial edict from Zhang Daoling, and handed it to Amitabha's arms in person. Finally, he patted Amitabha on the shoulder and said, "The Holy Buddha is a pillar of my heavenly court. This matter is of great importance. I am really worried about handing it over to others. I can only trouble the Holy Buddha for a hard time. After the reason is found out, I will reward the Holy Buddha heavily to show the great grace of heaven!"

Hearing Zhao Qingshan's words, Amitabha even had the urge to rush up and kick Zhao Qingshan hard... But Zhao Qingshan's words made him unable to find any fault. Even if his chest was churning, he could only show a faint smile and leave a sentence, "It is my honor to be valued by Your Majesty. Please rest assured. I will do my best and will never be careless."

After saying that, Amitabha Buddha seemed to have eaten a mouse poop and vomited, leaving no unnecessary nonsense, and turned into a golden light. He left Lingxiao Palace with Zhao Qingshan's imperial edict.

Looking at the direction of Amitabha Buddha's departure, Zhao Qingshan smiled, turned his head and asked Gou Chen, "What should I do next? I don't need to say it?"

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. I will arrange for people to follow Amitabha to enter the West. After all, the number of Buddhists is withering now, and it is always a shame to lack a few useful people around me." Gou Chen smiled understandingly and replied seriously.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Chang'e and Yang Wanyan couldn't help but look at each other... What's going on? Hasn't the Western Taiji Emperor Gou Chen always been a selfless cold ice cube? Why did he become... so without a lower limit after contacting Zhao Qingshan?

It was obvious that he was finding a reason to put a few eyeliners around Amitabha to monitor his actions, but when Gou Chen said that it seemed to be very natural, and it became a welfare policy that the Heavenly Court cared for his subordinates?

To put it nicely, Zhao Qingshan and Gou Chen's actions are called weighing Buddhist teachings, and to put it bluntly... It is called rejecting dissidents! Obviously, Zhao Qingshan already has a major characteristic of becoming a foolish monarch...

The immortals and gods in the Lingxiao Palace dispersed and returned to their respective positions. Zhao Qingshan was in a good mood and hummed a small song all the way back from the heaven to Longsu Mountain in the world.

At the same time, Amitabha Buddha, who had just returned to his position and was worn by Zhao Qingshan and others, also turned into a middle-aged monk in his forties and appeared in a temple in the world.

Several little novice monks were sweeping away dead branches and leaves in the open space in front of the Main Hall. Suddenly, when they saw a middle-aged monk with a rosy complexion and a compassionate expression coming in outside the door, they were inevitably stunned.

Soon, a little novice monk dragged his broom to meet him and bowed, "Amitabha... I dare to ask where this master came from?"

The middle-aged monk transformed by Amitabha Buddha looked at the little novice monk with a kind smile, and his eyes swept over a pine tree outside the temple intentionally or unintentionally, and said aloud: "I came from the West, went to the West, passed by Bao Temple, and came to ask for a bowl of water."

The sound was neither heavy nor light, but it happened to spread throughout the temple. The little novice monk was stunned when he heard it, coming from the West and heading to the West? Could there be something wrong with the master's head?

Just when these little novice monks were a little confused, a middle-aged monk laughed from the house behind the Great Buddha Hall, "Amitabha~! I wonder which monk came to this temple? I am a polite monk here."

Before he finished speaking, a middle-aged monk walked out of the Great Hall, his eyes flashed with a gleam and a smile of surprise on his face, "It turns out that the master is here. Mingkong is late to take over. I hope the master will not blame him..."

The middle-aged monk standing in the open space smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Mingkong, don't be safe."

"Master, please..." Monk Mingkong looked happy and led the middle-aged monk into the Grand Prix Hall with a faint hand, leaving only the little novice monks standing in the open space, covered in mist.

More than two minutes later, in the meditation room of the temple, Mingkong became Subhuti, and the middle-aged monk turned into Amitabha Buddha. Subhuti respectfully bowed to Amitabha Buddha and said, "Subhuti meets the Buddha~!"

Among the Buddhists, many Buddhas are called Buddhas. The Great Sun Tathagata is the Buddha, and the ancient Buddha of Lanlan is the Buddha. This Amitabha Buddha is also one of the Buddhas of Buddhism.

Amitabha smiled and said in a very gentle voice: "Your Master Subhuti does not need to be polite. Have you ever found the reincarnation body of your master, Dari Tathagata Buddha?"

"Not yet." Subhuti shook his head and said, "I came down to the realm for this reason. Master has immeasurable merits and boundless magic power. Before reincarnation, he used great supernatural powers to change his reincarnation fate. He is a Buddhist in any lifetime. I believe that Master's reincarnation body will be found soon!"

"It's so good." Amitabha smiled again and said, "Remember, if you find the reincarnation body of your master, Dari Tathagata Buddha, be sure to tell him not to immediately seek the Jade Emperor's name for the Buddha's name and the position of the god!"

"Why?" Subhuti was stunned, not understanding the meaning of Amitabha's advice.

Amitabha explained patiently: "The Jade Emperor in the Heavenly Court is obviously planning to regain control of the Western Paradise. If your master goes without preparation, he will inevitably be colluded by the Jade Emperor and the treacherous ministers around him. I will put my Buddhist on the chopping board and be slaughtered!"

"... Could it be... Buddha... you... you... you were also poisoned by the Heavenly Court?" Hearing Amitabha's words, Subhuti was shocked and suddenly thought of a possibility.

Facing Subhuti's inquiry eyes, Amitabha smiled slightly, took out the imperial edict she carried with her, and said, "When I returned to my position, the shameless Jade Emperor colluded with all the ministers to issue an order to send me into the Western world and temporarily exiled me to the land of China."

"What?!" Subhuti, who was originally happy about Amitabha's return to his position, suddenly flashed with anger when he heard this, "The Buddha is an indispensable supreme existence in my Buddhism. Is this heaven crazy? I want to take back the control of the Western Paradise, even Buddha, dare you to take action? It's so heartbroken!!!"

"The matter is now a foregone conclusion, why bother to get angry about it?" Amitabha Buddha smiled faintly and said, "I came to see you today, but I didn't come to hear your anger."

"Then... is the Buddha coming here?" Subhuti's face turned solemn, and he waved his hand to separate all the connection between the Zen room and the outside world. He also knew that he had been targeted by the soldiers in the Heavenly Court.

Amitabha looked at him and said, "I have two purposes here. The first thing is that after I leave here, I will rush to the Western world. I am afraid that the Heavenly Court will not let me return to the land of China in a short period of time. Therefore, the Buddhism in China depends on your support. We must integrate Buddhism and restore the incense of each temple."

"I know this." Subhuti's purpose is also the same as the lower realm, so naturally he understands it.

Seeing Subhuti nodding, Amitabha continued, "The second thing is that the Heavenly Court is so nervous that I return to my position and expelled me from the land of China. I am afraid that it is not just for the control of the Western Paradise. Therefore, you should pay attention to the movements of the Heavenly Court, especially... Qingyun Temple in Longsu Mountain, and find out what the Heavenly Court has concealed as soon as possible!!"

"Yes, Buddha...I will pay attention!"

Subhuti took a deep breath, nodded heavily and agreed.

Amitabha then smiled and disappeared out of thin air into the meditation room...
