When the real timeline of Huonan City appeared, all the major sects sensed the changes in the Nangong family and led their great cultivators to provide support.
The encounter between the Nangong family and Huonan City instantly shook the entire Tang Domain.
The Buddhists have gone so far as to use their supernatural powers of concealing time and space to try and wipe out the Nangong family.
What is even more infuriating is that the Buddhists, who claim to save people, the world, and all things, and to suppress evil and promote good, actually slaughtered 3 billion people in Huonan City.
This move enraged the cultivation world of Tangyu.
At this moment, Ling Yun and the others, along with the senior members of the Nangong family, entered the main hall.
Nangong Chen looked at Ling Yun and asked:
"Fellow Daoist, did you summon the leaders of various sects to eliminate Buddhist spies?"
Ling Yun nodded slightly and said in a deep voice:
"The fact that the Buddhist sect was able to mobilize countless powerful cultivators to annihilate the Nangong family is enough to show that the Buddhist sect has been lurking in the Tang Domain for countless years."
I suspect that Buddhism has already taken root in many parts of the Tang Dynasty.
When war breaks out in the future, the Buddhist strongholds will be deployed to divide and encircle the Tang army.
After a pause, Ling Yun continued:
"Many families have already sided with Buddhism. If these strongholds and traitors are not eliminated in time..."
Tangyu is destined to lose!
Hiss~
Upon hearing this, everyone in the Nangong family couldn't help but gasp, their faces turning solemn.
Nangong Chen immediately thought of the Buddhist bodhisattva who had been captured by the golden lion.
Ling Yun didn't let Golden Lion kill the other party in order to obtain information on all the strongholds and traitors.
Then, the golden lion lifted the Bodhisattva out.
This person was a powerful True Immortal from the Demon Subduing Star Domain, named Situ Ye. After joining Buddhism, he was granted the title of Bodhisattva.
"Hmph!" Situ Ye snorted coldly and said sarcastically:
"Tang Domain's resistance is futile. In the future, our army will crush the entire Tang Domain!"
"Nangong family, you are lucky to have encountered a master who intervened, but your good fortune will only end here. After conquering Tang Domain in the future, your Nangong family will be publicly executed!"
"Haha... My Demon-Subduing Starfield is backed by Buddhism, what can you possibly use to resist me!"
"..."
Snap!
Golden Lion slapped Situ Ye hard across the face and scolded him:
"Still arrogant even when death is imminent!"
Nangong Chen, exuding righteousness, looked directly into Situ Ye's eyes and said sternly:
"Compared to the entire Buddhist community, my Tang Domain is like an ant, yet my Tang Domain dares to resist Buddhism."
As for your Demon Subduing Starfield, when the Buddhists invaded, you surrendered after only half a month of resistance.
As one of the few supreme experts in the Demon Subduing Starfield, you can only watch as the Buddhists slaughter cultivators in the Demon Subduing Starfield who refuse to believe in Buddhism.
The Demon-Subduing Starfield, home to trillions of lives, was half-slaughtered, staining the starry sky with blood.
For hundreds of thousands of years, the starry sky of the Demon-Subduing Starfield has been blood-red; this is the price of letting wolves into the house.
You are not ashamed, but proud.
My Tang Domain is indeed weak, but my Tang Domain will never surrender. Even if we fight to the last man, we of the Tang Domain will die standing.
As long as I, Nangong Chen, am here, Tang Yu will resist to the very end!
boom!
Nangong Chen's words resounded in Situ Ye's ears like a thunderclap.
He was filled with shame!
However, he still wore a disdainful and sarcastic expression, saying:
"It's like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. Once my Demon-Subduing Starfield army arrives, you'll know what despair and invincibility truly mean."
"Kneeling in surrender is indeed shameful, but we're still alive, which is better than you dying for so-called justice."
Such shameless words made even Ling Yun want to slap him to death.
"But now is not the time to kill him," the Golden Lion shouted, pointing at Situ Ye.
"Tell me about the Buddhist strongholds hidden in the Tang Region, and which families or sects have sided with Buddhism! I'll give you a quick and painless answer!"
Situ Ye turned to look at the Golden Lion and said sarcastically:
"Disgrace! You are a disgrace to Buddhism. As the supreme and noble mount of Buddha, you have betrayed Buddhism."
You're still putting on this self-righteous act in front of me, I'm ashamed for you!
With a loud bang!
No sooner had he finished speaking than the Great Sage smashed Situ Ye's head with his staff, roaring:
“Watch your mouth when you talk to my brother. Can’t you see what Buddhism is really like? Aren’t those Buddhist monks the ones who don’t hesitate to commit bloody massacres to conquer?”
Your faith in Buddhism stems from a desire to avoid death, while my brother's faith stems from a refusal to aid and abet evil. There is a fundamental difference between you and him.
Now close your eyes and think about the lives lost in the Demon-Subduing Starfield, think about the three billion souls who perished in Fire South City! Doesn't your conscience hurt?!
Situ Ye subconsciously closed his eyes, and instantly his mind was filled with a bloody light. Scenes of Buddhist monks in robes with compassionate faces, wielding butcher knives and slaughtering indiscriminately, appeared in his mind.
One image after another flashed through his mind, some of whom were his friends and some of his disciples.
These were all unbearable scenes that he had sealed away in his memory, but the Great Sage unsealed them.
At this moment, Situ Ye's face was contorted with rage, and tears of blood streamed from his eyes.
"Is this the Buddha? Why are you slaughtering us?!"
"Mother! Father! Waaah... Wake up!"
"We just don't believe in Buddha, why are you killing us? Isn't Buddha benevolent? Heavens!"
"..."
The mournful sounds lingered in his ears.
In a daze, he saw countless dead souls, covered in blood, walking towards him, densely packed and stretching as far as the eye could see.
Ah~
Ah~
"..."
Situ Ye screamed. He was a true immortal but not a bloodthirsty person. The scenes of slaughter made his Dao heart extremely unstable.
Human nature is inherently good. Anyone who is not completely evil will feel grief and indignation upon seeing these scenes.
*Snap*
The golden lion slapped him across the face and roared:
"Aren't you going to tell me now?!"
"I'll talk! I'll talk! I'll talk!"
Situ Ye knelt on the ground, his face full of remorse and self-reproach.
He revealed all the strongholds and surrendered forces without any concealment.
Looking at the tens of thousands of strongholds of all sizes, Nangong Chen's hands trembled with anger.
When they saw the Wang family, Qinghuo Sect, and other powerful forces siding with Buddhism, the Nangong family's top leaders were almost furious enough to vomit blood.
"These families and sects all have an unparalleled history of glory; their ancestors all sacrificed themselves for the Tang Domain."
But they actually chose to surrender! How shameful! Have they lived up to the honor of their ancestors?
At this time, thousands of leaders from sects and families arrived at the Nangong family.
Apart from the families and sects that surrendered, everyone who could come came.
Even the pond owner came.
Upon learning of the families and sects that had surrendered, everyone was filled with rage.
Their fury shook the entire Tang region.
It took a huge price and so many lives to sacrifice for the independence of the Tang Dynasty.
But some people with weak knees choose to kneel down.
Nangong Chen calmed himself down and made everyone quiet. Then he looked at Ling Yun and said:
"Fellow Daoist, what do you think should be done about the Buddhist cultivators and the traitors from the Tang Domain?"
Ling Yun said solemnly:
"This is a matter for the Tang Domain; fellow Daoists, you can make the decision!"
