After exiting the chatroom, a smile hung on Chen Xiaobei’s lips.
The decision to take Jiang Ziya under his wing was a wise one.
He was, after all, one of the few top talents of China!
During the early phase of League of G.o.d War, when the Chanism and the Zhou Dynasty were put in a difficult situation, Jiang Ziya was waiting for Emperor Zhou to ask for his help. The moment Jiang Ziya agreed to help him, Emperor Zhou appointed him as the general. He had the power to lead all his soldiers to fight King Zhou of Shang.
After the war, Jiang Ziya became the spokesperson for the Primordial Lord of Heaven who handled daily affairs.
With Jiang Ziya as his right-hand man, Chen Xiaobei basically did not have to worry about the state of affairs back in China and j.a.pan. Jiang Ziya would be able to handle them without a problem.
Right now, everything seemed to be in order and was settling down. Chen Xiaobei can finally begin his development.
“Duobao Rulai… Buddha… Gautama Buddha…”
Chen Xiaobei opened up the Three Realms Red Envelope Group and scrolled through the list of members.
“Hmm, that’s not right. Other than Sanzang, there are no Buddhists in the group. I can’t find Duobao Rulai… But if you think about it, it hasn’t even been one year since the Red Envelope Group started. Primordial Lord of Heaven and Lady Nuwo only joined not long ago. Hm… it seems that there are still many powerful people who haven’t joined! Who should I approach to ask for Duobao Rulai’s contact?”
Chen Xiaobei computed in his mind. “Monkey King was trapped under the Five Fingered Mountain for 500 years, which means that he hates Duobao Rulai’s guts. If not, he wouldn’t give up the position as Battle G.o.d and returned to Mount Hua Guo to have a relaxing life. Sanzang, on the other hand, was the reincarnation of Duobao Rulai’s second disciple, Golden Cicadidae. In the early days, Sanzang argued with Buddha and was forced to reincarnate to the earthly realm! I’m pretty sure that he has a lot of hate in him as well. That’s why I don’t think he will add Duobao Rulai as his friend…”
Ding!
As Chen Xiaobei was deep in thought, a message came through.
[Duobao Rulai has sent you a friend request, do you accept?]
“Woooho! s.h.i.+t! He really is the First Saint. Did he predict that I will look for him?”
Chen Xiaobei tapped on the ‘accept’ b.u.t.ton.
Ding!
Duobao Rulai: Xiaobei, I’m observing your fate. I know that I have to meet up with you today. I don’t mean to be rude. I hope you don’t mind.
Chen Xiaobei: Buddha, you are too polite! I don’t know how to react now.”
Duobao Rulai: Xiaobei, you are too humble. The Prime of Tongtian and Gautama Buddha are on the same level. That means you and I are on the same level as well.
“Er…”
Chen Xiaobei was stunned.
“d.a.m.n! It’s so awesome to have such powerful Sifu! Even Buddha is telling me that we are on the same level!”
Still, Chen Xiaobei did not dare to act rudely.
Chen Xiaobei: Buddha, you are so humble! I’m really honored that you see me on the same level as you! I will have to pay my respects to you!
Duobao Rulai: Just relax. I will not force you to do so.
Chen Xiaobei: Mm, to cut the long story short, I’ve wanted to contact you because a friend of mine died and I really need a Cleansing Bodhi to keep her body from rotting!
Duobao Rulai: This is easy. But Chanism is ruling heaven now and the Primordial Lord of Heaven mentioned that no one is allowed to send anything to people in the earthly realm!
Chen Xiaobei:I understand! It’s true that he banned deities from sending Red Envelopes for free to others! But! I can use my merit points to buy it! Please tell me how many merit point to exchange for one Cleansing Bodhi. I will pay you!
After he sent the text, Chen Xiaobei could not help but frown.
“It looks like my ex s.h.i.+xiong does not really care about our relations.h.i.+p! He mentioned that it’s an easy task but he’s asking merit points from me! I don’t think it’s that easy to make him side with me!”
Duobao Rulai: Xiaobei, you can just send me 1 merit point.
“Huh?” Chen Xiaobei dare not believe what he was reading. “You can get 1 merit point by just helping an old lady cross the road. Why would he just ask for 1? He must have typed wrongly!”
Chen Xiaobei: 1 merit point? Buddha, you must be mistaken. ![?]()
Duobao Rulai: No, I’m not. 1 point. You and I are on the same line. The 1 merit point is to keep the Chanism’s mouth shut.
“…”
Chen Xiaobei was dumbfounded. Earlier, he thought that his ex s.h.i.+xiong was someone that did not care about him. Now, he realized that he had not forgotten that he was the very first disciple of Jieism.
Chen Xiaobei: Buddha! I apologize! I was thinking that you did not care about Jieism anymore. Now, I know that you are someone fueled by love!
Duobao Rulai: I have considered myself someone that has abandoned all love and emotions! Better not talk about love.
“Can’t talk about it? The calamity is coming soon and everyone is trying to gather more allies but they don’t want anyone to know about it.”
Chen Xiaobei thought to himself.
Chen Xiaobei: I understand. I won’t talk mention it again!
Ding!
[Congratulations! You’ve s.n.a.t.c.hed Duobao Rulai’s Red Envelope. You have received two Cleansing Bodhi. It has been stored inside your treasure chest!
“Huh? There’s two?” Chen Xiaobei’s eyes lit up. Could he have mistakenly sent one extra?
Chen Xiaobei: Buddha, why did you send me two…
Duobao Rulai: It’s a secret.
Chen Xiaobei: Understood. I will send you the merit point now.
Ding!
1 merit point sent!
Ding!
[Your current merit points is 2,859,999. You need another 140,001 merit points. (Charm: 286,000; Luck: 286,000)]
“I only gave out 1 merit point and after rounding off, my charm and luck hasn’t changed! It’s like I did nothing to get that two Cleansing Bodhi!”
Chen Xiaobei said excitedly, “My ex s.h.i.+xiong is no nice! I think Sifu already knew that. If not, he wouldn’t ask me to come and look for him! This is awesome! I can give one to Little Fox and save the other one for myself!”
Duobao Rulai: You still have to take care of the body of the deceased. We’ll stop our conversation here. If you any problems in the future, and you can’t reach the Prime of Tongtian, you can look for me!
Chen Xiaobei: Okay! Thank you Buddha! ![?]()
Duobao Rulai: Send my regards to the Prime of Tongtian.
Chen Xiaobei: Okay! Will do! ![?]()
That was the end of their conversation.
Chen Xiaobei did not waste another second. The message that he had just received about the Red Envelope appeared immediately in his mind.
Ding!
[Cleansing Bodhi: Found in the Saha World, it belonged to the Primal Bodhi Tree. Nourished by enshrouding Buddha’s warm. Those who wear it will be cleansed and free from all diseases! Do you want to withdraw it?]
“Of course!”
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei withdrew the Red Envelope.
