Chapter 20 Of course, I'll just sit and watch.
Upon seeing Lady Pingxin's actions, Haotian transmitted his voice, saying, "This matter is not so simple."
He probably won't give up unless you agree to the introduction.
Even if we manage to get through this now, this guy will still find a way to interfere in the future.
Rather than doing that, it would be better to agree to Ksitigarbha's request to enter the underworld now, if the conditions are right.
Now, let's discuss the conditions; we can bring Ksitigarbha.
Or perhaps the tentacles of Western religion have locked them off, leaving them with no further options.
Even if we can't completely cut off their subsequent methods, we can still take this opportunity to bring the Western monks under our rules.
As long as we keep them within our rules, no matter how many Western disciples come, they will just be working for us.
If you agree, I will deal with the guide later.
of course.
If you disagree, I may refuse your guidance later.
However, if we do this, we may not be able to refuse opportunities in the future.
"We might not even be able to raise the conditions next year."
Upon hearing Haotian's voice transmission, Empress Pingxin's expression immediately darkened further.
He originally intended to use Haotian's identity to keep the Western religion out.
Now it seems things aren't that simple.
There is one thing Haotian is right about.
If the guide is determined to interfere in the underworld, then things will indeed be very troublesome.
Even if the two sides join forces this time and force Jieyin to retreat.
What about after that?
In Heaven and the Underworld, it's usually Haotian and she who are in charge.
However, the existence of Zixiao Palace.
However, this was the exception that broke the deadlock.
If things escalate to the Zixiao Palace in the future, who can say for sure which side the Dao Ancestor will side with?
Once things have reached that point, how could the other saints sit idly by and watch the Western religion interfere in the underworld on its own?
At that time, the six saints will surely divide up the underworld at the same time.
If it really comes to that, she will definitely lose most of her control over the underworld.
From what we've seen so far, Haotian's idea seems quite good.
Although I don't quite understand what he meant by "working".
It's probably not a very nice word.
However, first, we need to confine Ksitigarbha within the rules we have set.
With Ksitigarbha setting an example, even if other sages wanted to intervene, they would be confined to the rules.
In this way, some of their power will be taken away.
But at least most of the benefits can still be retained.
After weighing the options, Consort Pingxin nodded slightly to Haotian.
He indicated that Haotian should come and talk.
Seeing that he and Pingxin had reached a consensus, Haotian no longer held back.
He immediately asked, "What is the meaning of this, Sage of Guidance?"
Fellow Daoist Pingxin just now made it very clear that the Underworld has been incorporated into the Heavenly Court.
All personnel matters in the underworld require my approval.
Is it not inappropriate for the Sage to avoid me like this?
of course.
If the Sage feels it doesn't matter whether I agree or not, then you may continue to pester Fellow Daoist Pingxin.
You'll see if I approve it then, and that'll be the end of it.
Without my permission, Ksitigarbha entering the underworld would be disrupting the order of the underworld.
When I punish those who disrupt the order of the underworld, the Sage should not interfere.
Otherwise, the Sage will have to figure out how to explain things to Zixiao Palace.
Upon hearing Haotian's words, Jieyin looked at Lady Pingxin with resentment.
"Fellow Daoist Pingxin, is what Haotian said truly true?"
Empress Pingxin nodded upon hearing this and said, "That's right!"
Fellow Daoist Haotian is the Heavenly Emperor appointed by the Dao Ancestor.
The underworld is naturally under its jurisdiction.
Since that's the case, the personnel matters of the Underworld should naturally be reported to Fellow Daoist Haotian.
Otherwise, wouldn't things fall into chaos?
After hearing these words from Lady Pingxin, even if Jieyin didn't want to deal with Haotian, he had no choice but to face him.
Because Empress Pingxin's attitude has already been made very clear.
Either stop talking, or go talk to Haotian.
But just thinking about Haotian's sharp tongue gave Jieyin a headache.
Moreover, given Haotian's attitude, the chances of reaching an agreement are really slim.
Since things have come to this, let's stop talking.
If Haotian really doesn't agree, then we can only wait for another opportunity.
After thinking it over, Jieyin turned to Haotian and said, "Fellow Daoist Haotian, regarding Ksitigarbha's affairs in the underworld..."
What do you think?
Upon hearing Jieyin's words, Haotian replied expressionlessly, "What can I possibly think?"
"Of course I'll just sit and watch!"
After replying, Haotian couldn't help but secretly complain to himself.
You old scoundrel!
Still trying to get something for nothing?
You wish!
If the terms aren't agreed upon first, will I make my stance clear?
You're trying to get my approval right off the bat.
Am I to blame for this?
That old scoundrel is completely clueless.
Upon hearing Haotian's reply, the Three Corpse Gods immediately became agitated.
Countless Dao Ancestors!
Haotian is really too unscrupulous.
Is it really appropriate for you, a sage, to speak to me like this?
However, since he needed Haotian's help at the moment, Jieyin temporarily suppressed his anger.
He glanced coldly at Haotian and thought to himself, "Hmph!"
Ants!
You have met a righteous end!
Just wait!
I can endure countless times.
You can only make one mistake!
"If I ever get the chance, I will grind you to dust!"
I'll think about it.
After calming himself down, Jieyin slowly said, "Then, Fellow Daoist Haotian, may I ask how you would agree to this?"
Seeing that Jieyin had finally understood, Haotian calmly replied, "Is the Sage going to negotiate with me?"
Let me make it clear first, this was proposed by a sage.
It wasn't my request.
Don't come back and say I'm only after profit.
"To avoid it becoming my problem later."
Upon hearing this, Jieyin suppressed his anger and nodded, saying, "It was my initiative to propose it."
Fellow Daoist Haotian, please state your conditions first!
If an agreement is reached, I will not say anything more.
Upon hearing this, Haotian finally spoke up, saying, "Since that's the case, then I won't stand on ceremony."
Let me make this clear first, these are only my conditions.
If an agreement is reached, I will approve the matter according to procedure.
but.
The procedure in the underworld is that Fellow Daoist Pingxin recommends it, and then I approve it.
Therefore, Fellow Daoist Pingxin, the Sage will still need to discuss this with her later.
Otherwise, if the underworld doesn't recommend it, I can only apologize.
Upon hearing Haotian's words, Jieyin couldn't help but angrily retort, "You..."
But thinking about his own purpose, Jieyin suppressed his anger.
"You go first!"
Haotian nodded upon seeing this.
"First of all, since Ksitigarbha has entered the underworld, he must act in accordance with the rules of the underworld."
I must first remind Your Majesty that if Ksitigarbha were to cause trouble in the underworld and disrupt its order...
According to the rules of the underworld, the most serious offense is being reduced to ashes.
Upon hearing this, Jieyin immediately said in a deep voice, "Impossible!"
Ksitigarbha is a disciple of my Western Sect; the underworld has no right to punish him!
Haotian spread his hands upon hearing this.
"Then there's nothing we can do!"
That's the rule in the underworld; no one is an exception.
Even the witches who come to the underworld have to follow this rule.
Since I have received the position,
Then there would be no witch clan, nor any Western religion.
In my eyes, there is only a certain priest.
That's it!
This is my bottom line!
If the sage wants special treatment, then there's no point in continuing this discussion.
