Lin Jingting's face was gloomy as he said, "Niannian, we plan to go to Mount Ling together, why don't you come with us!"
The Buddha exclaimed in horror, "Why do you insist on taking her to Mount Ling? Mount Ling is not your territory."
Lin Jingting said seriously, "She can only avoid criticism from the sect by going to Lingshan. If she goes to my Demon Mountain, it will be very difficult for her to return to Emei."
Tathagata said, "With her current cultivation level, even if she goes to Demon Mountain, she can ensure that no one knows."
Lin Jingting pointed at Chu Nian with her chin and said, "She is a sensitive human. Not to mention Demon Mountain, as long as she sets foot on Demon Realm land, the entire Emei Sect will definitely know."
Tathagata started peeling dried fruit and eating it again, and also grabbed a handful of beef jerky and stuffed it into his mouth, saying, "I think you're overthinking it. If you want to keep her from going to Demon Mountain, it's impossible for anyone to know."
Lin Jingting said meaningfully, "I think her master had been preventing her from going to Demon Mountain for a long time."
Upon hearing this, Tathagata immediately began to scrutinize Chu Nian, not only scrutinizing him but also scanning Chu Nian's body repeatedly with his vast divine sense.
The Buddha asked in surprise, "I didn't find any tracking spells or magical artifacts on her!"
After Chu Nian's cultivation improved, the tracking spell that Kong Yuan had left on her was removed by her.
Lin Jingting pondered for a moment and began to scrutinize Chu Nian.
Chu Nian was puzzled by his reaction and asked curiously, "Is there something you can't figure out?"
Lin Jingting: "Back when you were on Demon Mountain, I placed a shielding restriction on you, but you were still found by that old nun Kong Yuan."
Chu Nian was startled. With Lin Jingting's abilities, it was impossible for him to let a Mahayana cultivator find Wu Nian.
Buddha was also surprised and said, "How is this possible? That old nun's cultivation is so much lower than yours."
Lin Jingting: "I'm also very curious about how she knew Wu Nian was on Demon Mountain. So I want to see if she can still find her now that Nian Nian has gone to Spirit Mountain."
Buddha's face darkened, and he said, "You brat, don't do anything stupid. You clearly want to lure that old nun to our Mount Sumeru."
Lin Jingting remained serious and said, "You're overthinking it. How could I be that kind of person? Besides, everyone now believes that you've left Mount Ling to travel. Even if that old nun went to Mount Ling, you don't need to show your face."
Buddha: "Lin Jingting, you really have thoroughly implemented the principle of 'better to die than to die.'"
Lin Jingting: "You're really overthinking it. My consideration is simply that I don't want Niannian to be attacked by your entire Buddhist community again."
At this moment, Buddha also put on a serious face and said, "The best way to prevent her from being attacked by Buddhism is for you to stay away from her!"
Chu Nian couldn't help but rub her forehead in exasperation, saying, "You two grown men come here just to spout nonsense?! Do you have anything else to say? If not, then hurry up and leave. Go wherever you want to swim, you don't have to call me."
"Agreed!" This time, Buddha readily agreed, stood up, collected all the dried fruits on the table, and turned to leave.
Chu Nian stared blankly at the pile of CDs on the table for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Wow, Tathagata, you've come here to beg for alms, haven't you!"
Lin Jingting said calmly, "I told you long ago that there are many delicious foods on Mount Ling. Now you should understand why!"
So Buddha was a glutton! Chu Nian nodded to Lin Jingting with a knowing look, then suddenly felt a blur before her eyes, lost consciousness, and slumped onto the table.
Buddha pointed at the unconscious woman and asked in horror, "What happened to her?"
Lin Jingting: "While she's unconscious, hurry up and help me find the things that old nun did to her."
Buddha: "Are you sure that old nun did something to her? But with this girl's current skill level, there's no way she wouldn't have noticed!"
Lin Jingting: "That's why I asked you to come! If we work together to investigate, we're sure to find something."
The Buddha shook his head and said, "No, this is too reckless. You already suspect that the old nun has tampered with her, yet you still treat this girl like this in Emei. This... is inappropriate! Inappropriate!"
Lin Jingting asked impatiently, "What's wrong with it?"
Buddha: "Do you know what tricks that nun played on her? What if it wasn't just tracking her, but also monitoring her? Besides, this Emei is their territory..."
Lin Jingting interrupted him: "There is a magic array outside this Wunian Tower, and I also set up a barrier when I came in. No matter what happens inside the tower, no one outside will know."
Buddha: "That's not appropriate either."
Lin Jingting complained angrily, "You big monk, you just ate so much dried fruit and beef jerky, and now look what's happened, you can't even help me with this little bit of work."
Buddha: "What I eat is all based on other people's enlightenment; what does it have to do with you?"
Lin Jingting: "This matter concerns Wu Nian's future. Whether she can move around freely in the future depends on whether you and I can successfully find out what Kong Yuan did to her today."
Buddha said: "In my opinion, unless she goes to a special place, her master will not care about her."
Lin Jingting: "She went to Demon Mountain and Kong Yuan chased after her to demand her return; she went to Spirit Mountain and also chased after her there to demand her return. Do you think her master would let her roam freely in the cultivation world?"
Buddha said, "Whether they can do it or not is their own business. It's not right for us to interfere. No, no, I absolutely won't do this. Um, if you want to stay and continue working, then we'll..." He waved to Lin Jingting and said, "Goodbye!"
He tried to leave through the door, but a barrier of light appeared on the door, blocking his way. He then tried the window, but another barrier of light appeared there. He decided to simply walk through the wall, but a barrier of light appeared on the wall as well…
"Lin Jingting!" Buddha shouted angrily.
Lin Jingting said, "You should leave after you've finished helping out."
The Buddha said with a dark face, "Your stubbornness is no less than that of the old nun Kongyuan."
Lin Jingting: "I am a demon, so of course I have obsessions."
Buddha: "What if I don't help?"
Lin Jingting: "Then let me find out what exactly was done to her before we talk about it."
Buddha: "Aren't you unable to find out what has been done to her?"
Lin Jingting: "Yes, it's not possible now, but it will be discovered someday."
"Someday...someday?" Buddha said, quite annoyed. "When will that be?"
Lin Jingting: "That's why I need your help."
Rulai sat down in the chair, his cheeks puffed out in anger, and said, "I just won't help."
Lin Jingting: "If I don't help you, you'll be waiting forever."
Suddenly, Tathagata's eyes lit up, and he said, "Hey, that's right, there's no point in just waiting. I can go and remove the barrier you set up." With that, he went to the door to study the light screen.
