106: Deserted by everyone?

The surrounding Buddhas had originally intended to step forward and seize Wu Ming.

But after hearing these words, they all froze in place.

Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed true; the Buddha had handed over the Treasure Appearance Golden Lotus, and on top of that, provided the Nirvana Sacred Art and Spirit Stones, showing absolutely no dignity befitting a Buddha.

Coupled with the fact that a Buddha Slave could never betray Galan Temple, the Buddhas all fell into deep thought.

Could their own Buddha have truly betrayed them? And defected to the Demonic Sect? Otherwise, why would he be so readily compliant?

One must know that as the Buddha, the Treasure Appearance Golden Lotus was undoubtedly his Magic Treasure. Handing it over so readily was completely out of character for him!

Seeing the questioning gazes of the surrounding Buddhas, the Buddha became infuriated.

"Wu Ming, I see that you have truly fallen into a demonic obsession without even realizing it!"

With that said, the Buddha slapped out, and a powerful golden light illuminated the entire great hall.

If this palm strike were to land, it would surely make Wu Ming perish completely!

But just at this moment, a Buddha stepped forward, directly blocking the space between the Buddha and Wu Ming, and he intercepted that massive palm strike!

"Buddha, do you not wish to explain what Wu Ming has said?!"

Buddha: "?"

At this time, the Demon Venerable and Elders of Supreme Bliss Holy Land all stood to the side, watching them like spectators enjoying a show.

After all, opportunities to see dogs biting dogs were truly rare; if they didn't watch the show, they would be doing a disservice to themselves for being on the scene!

Such an excellent spot to watch the show was worth more than any amount of Spirit Stones.

The Buddha was also filled with rage; he never expected that his own Elders would actually believe the words of a Buddha Slave and even block him from killing that Buddha Slave.

"Get out of my way!!!"

But despite the Buddha's rage, what he received in return was even more Buddhas standing before him, looking at him with vigilance.

"Buddha, you need to provide an explanation for this matter. Wu Ming absolutely cannot be killed by you so easily! He is a witness, and the matter of the Ancient Buddha Reincarnation also needs to be verified!"

"Hmm?!"

The Buddha looked incredulous: "Do you not know that true experts never believe in Reincarnation! Has all your years of studying Buddha Dharma been fed to the dogs?!"

"Are you trying to silence a witness?!"

Wu Ming stepped out, his face devoid of joy or sorrow, showing no fear that the Buddha might deal a lethal blow to him.

Instead, he pressed his palms together and softly chanted amitabha.

"Buddha, are you so anxious to kill me because you fear your true motives will be exposed to the world?"

"When I went to kill Lin Ye, you specifically told me that since Lin Ye could trigger the top-tier phenomena of our Buddhist sect, he must possess great Karma and great Power Of Will! Such a person must join our Galan Temple!"

"But what was the meaning of you turning around to look at those books on Possession? If I hadn't read those scriptures before, I would have almost been fooled by you!"

"???"

The Buddha looked at Wu Ming in shock; he did not understand why a Buddha Slave had become like this—daring to confront him was one thing, but to slander him like this was unthinkable.

Scriptures on Possession? When had he ever looked at such things?

Although his current physical shell did not possess such Heaven-Defying Aptitude, he was still a favored son of heaven; the path to Immortal Ascension was not necessarily beyond his reach.

Besides, he was in the prime of his life; why would he need Possession?!

But those Buddhas clearly believed it, and one by one, they looked at their own Buddha in shock.

"So that was the plan; no wonder, no wonder! Buddha, you still refuse to admit that Lin Ye is the Ancient Buddha Reincarnation. Thinking about it, if he weren't the Ancient Buddha Reincarnation, how could he possess the top-tier phenomena of our Buddhist sect!"

"amitabha, Buddha, you had better explain your own issues first."

"That's right, I suspected you had problems long ago! After we return, you must go to the Discipline Hall and give everyone an explanation. No, wait! What if you don't even want to return to the temple?!"

After one of the Buddhas said this, all the Buddhas looked at the Buddha with vigilance.

And with great tacit understanding, they surrounded the Buddha.

They formed the Demon-Slaying Great Array.

As the Buddha, his cultivation of Buddha Dharma was naturally profound; if they fought him one-on-one, they certainly would have no chance of winning.

Since that was the case, they would join forces!

With so many Buddhas standing together, they would surely be able to subdue the Buddha right here.

Seeing the surrounding Buddhas, the Buddha was almost amused by his own rage.

He never imagined that he, a Buddha, would one day find himself forsaken by all because of a single sentence from a Buddha Slave.

Not far away, the people of Supreme Bliss Holy Land were whispering to each other.

"No way, no way, has the Buddha become a traitor? And he's thinking about Possession while still young?!"

"What do you know! I heard that when the Buddha was young, in order to obtain the Mahayana Buddha Dharma, he willingly castrated himself! Now that he has become the Buddha, he naturally has other ideas!"

"Oh~~~ So that's how it is. No wonder he wants to perform Possession. But wait, at his Realm, he should be able to regrow severed limbs, right? Since he lost his masculine symbol, he could just use a holy medicine, couldn't he? Why go through with the highly risky Possession!"

"Can't you see? The Buddha... *cough cough*, looks rather disappointing, and the Fairies aren't interested in him either. He has to find a better skin, and he just happened to take a liking to our Disciple."

"Now that you put it that way, I understand. Looking closely, the Buddha is indeed... hard to describe!"

"You can't talk like that! He might have already been turned by our Demon Venerable. Didn't you see how he gave them whatever they asked for?! He is one of our own!"

"So that's it! Then I'm going to support the Buddha! He is our good brother!"

The people of Supreme Bliss Holy Land became loyal spectators, not only watching the show but even offering commentary.

Offering commentary was one thing, but they made no attempt to use sound transmission, whispering directly, making it hard for the Buddha not to hear.

His face grew darker and darker, until finally, it was almost black as ink!

A group of demonic cultivators slandering him was one thing, that wouldn't be a big deal, but as members of the Buddhist sect, those Buddhas also wore expressions of spectators, and they even believed it!

"What are you looking at?! Do you think I am that kind of person?! Do you think I would betray my own faith?!"

The Buddha roared at the crowd of Buddhas!

But clearly, no matter how sincere his words were, compared to the Buddha Slave, his words lacked credibility.

After all, Buddha Slaves were all converted using the Du Hua Sutra.

The Du Hua Sutra was the real deal; it was truly capable of turning a person into the most loyal servant.

But what about the Buddha?

Not to mention his loyalty to Galan Temple, just the fact that he gave whatever was asked when facing Demonic Cultivators was enough to raise a question.

"Buddha, why do you want to silence Wu Ming?"

"Hmm?!"

The Buddha looked at that Buddha with a surprised expression.

After all this, was it his fault?

He wanted to kill the Buddha Slave who had abandoned his faith, and instead, it had become his problem!
