Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2557: Chapter 64: Great Nirvana Temple! The Buddha Master Descends

Wang Shouzhe knew that the Fragrant Jade Holy Concubine was no simple character. If she easily escaped, she would likely suspect him upon reflection.

What if she became stubborn and decided to cause trouble for him out of spite?

“But that’s the Buddha Master! Even if it’s just a projection, it still represents the Nirvana Buddha…” Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme shot a displeased glance at Wang Shouzhe, transmitting, “I’ve heard he’s quite petty. What if he holds a grudge against me in the future?”

“Is our Primordial Taoist Palace this cowardly?” Wang Shouzhe glanced at him, clearly trying to provoke him, “The other party is riding over our heads, and yet you still dare not make a sound here, cowering?”

“I’m not cowardly… I’m just worried it might trigger a war between the two states,” Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme worriedly transmitted, “The situation on the Void Battlefield is tense right now, it’s not a good time for internal strife. Why don’t you, Shouzhe, use your Dao Seal to summon your Old Ancestor over?”

“…”

Wang Shouzhe was speechless.

If he had a Dao Seal, would he need you?

Immediately, Wang Shouzhe’s expression turned serious, his voice calm and cold as he continued to transmit, “If you don’t go today, Baoguang will definitely write this into his magazine and spread it everywhere. By then, how will you explain it to fellow cultivators across the world? How will you explain it to the Taoist Master?”

Saying this, he shifted his tone and said, “Moreover, if they are riding over our heads and the Primordial Taoist Palace does not make a stand, if word spreads, where will the Taoist Master’s face be? Senior Cloud Peng, at times like this, you must at least give them a profound lesson, so they know the severity and dare not easily act recklessly in the future.”

Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme looked at the seemingly “harmless” Wang Baoguang and gulped.

Alright, he was also well aware of Wang Baoguang’s character. If this really got publicized, he, Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme, might as well stop being a person.

At that moment, Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme made a swift move to “attack.” As he left, he still heard Wang Shouzhe’s reminder in his ear: “Sacred Supreme, cheer up, don’t bring shame to the name of the Primordial Taoist Palace.”

Only at this moment did Wang Shouzhe slightly breathe a sigh of relief.

As the saying goes, when the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. As long as Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme and Emperor Tianrui attract attention and hatred and do not fall, Wang Shouzhe remains safe. And they are esteemed Sacred Supremes, with the Primordial Taoist Palace and Central Continent backing them up.

Sure enough.

When the Nirvana Buddha saw Emperor Tianrui remain silent, seemingly a bit hesitant to retreat, he understood his intention.

At this moment, he no longer spoke more, reached backward to hold the Fragrant Jade Holy Concubine in the palm of Buddha light, and prepared to swagger away.

At this critical moment.

Another overpowering and savage presence of the Sacred Emperor suddenly exploded in the sky, sweeping in all directions.

Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme, clad in wide sleeves and a robe, exuding an aura of grandeur, also crossed the void and appeared before the Nirvana Buddha.

He flicked his sleeves, clasped his hands behind his back with a righteous anger on his face, “Does the Nirvana Buddha think he can come and go as he pleases? Does he really think he can use Martial power to forcibly take away the criminal, displaying such arrogance, putting our Primordial Taoist Palace in disregard?”

The more he spoke, the more he felt he was right, and his imposing demeanor became even more majestic and severe, blocking the direction for the Nirvana Buddha to leave from afar.

“Brother Cloud Peng, this is…” Emperor Tianrui hesitated slightly.

The affairs of today were originally a setup by Cloud Peng to apprehend the Fragrant Jade Holy Concubine after he “discovered” something amiss about her, to nip the potential threat in the bud.

Unexpectedly, it became deeply entangled afterward…

“Brother Lu Qiu.” Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme spoke seriously, “This Fragrant Jade Holy Concubine infiltrated the Tianrui Saint Dynasty, she certainly has great intentions, and today I, Cloud Peng, on behalf of the Dao Palace, hereby declare that we absolutely cannot let her leave without getting to the bottom of their intent!”

Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme even pulled in the Dao Palace, leaving Emperor Tianrui no choice but to acquiesce, “In that case, today we will all follow Brother Cloud Peng’s lead.”

“Nirvana Buddha, if your true self were here today, we naturally would have no objection.” Only then did Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme turn his attention over, speaking coldly, “But it’s a pity, today you came here as just a projection. Leave the Fragrant Jade Holy Concubine behind, and return to where you came, otherwise…”

“Otherwise what?” Nirvana Buddha said coldly.

“Otherwise, don’t blame us for ’extinguishing Buddha’ today.” Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme said domineeringly, “When your projection is destroyed today, it’ll definitely impact your true power. By then, I don’t believe you can still contend with our Taoist Master.”

He mused inwardly, that brat Shouzhe was right—such matters that ride over your head must not be tolerated. He, Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme, was not an Independent Cultivator without a backing.

Moreover, that brat Shouzhe had a formidable power behind him. If anything happened, there was still that brat to hold up the sky.

Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme thought more and more that he was in the right.

Hmph hmph~ if this Nirvana Buddha still doesn’t know what’s good for him today, let him leave behind this projection.

He was confident in his heart, and the momentum bursting from his body grew increasingly imposing and vast, firmly locking onto the Nirvana Buddha with lethal intent.

Neither the Nirvana Buddha nor the Fragrant Jade Holy Concubine expected Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme to adopt such a firm stance.

The atmosphere fell into a stalemate for the moment.
