Chapter 554 I, Yuanshi, sever my ties with Laozi!
Let's start with the Taoist Ran Deng. He was the chief disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun, the leader of the Chan Sect, and his status was almost as revered as that of the vice leader.
This Burning Lamp was one of the three thousand guests in the Purple Cloud Palace, and the head disciple of the Jade Void Sect Master, Yuanshi Tianzun, whose status was second only to Yuanshi Tianzun, the leader of the Chan Sect.
Why is he said to be a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun?
That's because he became a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun, and thus was relegated to the position of Yuanshi Tianzun's disciple!
The Primordial Celestial Venerable saw that he was one of the Three Thousand Guests of the Purple Cloud Sect, so he appointed him as the Vice Sect Leader!
In a way, he was also a disciple under the name of Yuanshi!
...........................
Back then, in that thrilling battle of the Investiture of the Gods, Daoist Ran Deng was always at the forefront, repeatedly achieving great feats and earning the utmost respect.
However, who could have predicted that such a vice-leader would ultimately choose to leave the Chan Sect and resolutely join the Western Sect, where he would be revered as the Dipankara Buddha?
Moreover, as time went by, he gradually grew into the ancestor of all Buddhas in later generations, and his status was second only to the renowned Tathagata Buddha.
Then there's Julusun, who was also a prominent figure among the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, especially renowned for his skill in using the magical Immortal Binding Rope.
After that, he followed in the footsteps of the Taoist Ran Deng, joined the Western Sect, and transformed into the Buddha Julusun.
As for Manjushri, Samantabhadra, and Cihang Daoren, they all joined the Buddhist community and transformed into Guanyin Bodhisattva, Manjushri Bodhisattva, and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, respectively, thus shining brightly in Buddhism.
And all of this was caused by the two Western saints who abducted him.
It can be said that Yuan Shi had the least affection for them.
At this moment, Lao Tzu slowly put away the Taiji Diagram and the Linglong Pagoda, his face calm and composed, and replied unhurriedly, "What I did was simply to follow the predetermined fate of Heaven. As for my second brother, Yuanshi, his actions this time were truly unreasonable and illogical!"
"You're turning right and wrong upside down! You're like a mad dog barking at the sun!" Yuanshi said coldly.
Laozi was trembling with anger: "How dare you speak to my elder brother like that? What kind of tone and attitude is that!"
Yuanshi pointed at Laozi and roared, "You keep saying you're following the Way of Heaven, but in reality you're plotting against my Chan Sect, trying to weaken my power. From this day forward, our brotherhood is severed!"
The words were like a thunderclap in the chaos.
Even Tongtian of Jin'ao Island was taken aback by these words.
He never expected that Yuanshi would break up with his best brother.
What kind of trick is this?
.........................
Nuwa quickly advised, "Brother Yuanshi, please don't act impulsively. There may be a misunderstanding."
But the Primordial Celestial Venerable ignored him completely, turned to face the primordial world and issued a proclamation, his voice as loud as a bell!
"Today, I, Yuanshi, sever all ties with Laozi. Kunlun Jade Void Palace will no longer welcome you!"
This proclamation shook the entire world, and all the gods and immortals were filled with fear and unease.
They didn't expect Yuanshi to be serious.
What the hell is going on?
The two Western Saints exchanged a glance, knowing full well that this matter was in trouble.
Lao Tzu sighed, but inwardly he sneered. Anyway, all that's left is the Journey to the West tribulation; so what if family ties are gone?
In any case, he walks the path of ruthlessness!
Then Lao Tzu said calmly, "Since you are so resolute, then so be it. But don't regret it later."
Having said that, he turned and left, departing from this chaos.
Yuanshi Tianzun watched Laozi's departing figure, his eyes still burning with anger.
He knew this was because he had walked a ruthless path.
Back then, he and his third brother had advised him not to take the path of ruthlessness.
But he said ruthlessness is the way!
Now look what's happened, the brothers have fallen apart!
Nuwa shook her head helplessly. Although she wanted to resolve the conflict, the two had accumulated deep resentment that would be difficult to eliminate in a short time.
The situation in the primordial world has become unpredictable and turbulent because of their affair, and the future is full of uncertainties. The two Western Saints have also quietly returned to the West to prepare for the impending turmoil.
However, they stopped at the Eight Views Palace halfway there, intending to discuss the Journey to the West calamity with Lao Tzu.
..........................
And at this time.
Sanxian Island.
Yunxiao was dressed in a pure white, gossamer-thin robe. The robe was so light and soft that it fluttered in the wind like a fairy dancing gracefully.
Her figure was graceful and her waist was as slender and supple as a willow in the wind; her steps were as light as a swallow, each step seemed to be on the clouds, silent yet carrying a captivating elegance.
Her long, jet-black hair cascaded down her shoulders like a waterfall, swaying gently as she walked. The strands shimmered with a black gemstone-like luster, contrasting beautifully with her fair, jade-like skin, making her even more stunning.
Finally, she returned to the Three Immortals Island she had longed for.
As she stepped onto this familiar land, she couldn't help but sigh deeply.
Ever since Laozi imprisoned it under Qilin Cliff, the Three Immortal Islands have been neglected and unattended.
What she saw before her was a desolate and bleak scene.
