The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard

Chapter 2612: Chapter 2610: Sanzang’s Disciples

After the Three Demon Race Heavyweights finished their deliberations, they ordered all Demon Kings to remain well-behaved for now.

They would await Jin Chanzi’s arrival, and then the group would initiate their grand action.

However, their temporary leadership’s orders weren’t particularly effective.

The Demon Kings listened through one ear and let it out the other.

Some from the Demon Clan have already infiltrated the Great Xiangguo Temple, devouring a few monks, thus making the temple’s atmosphere one of fear.

In a vegetable garden outside the temple, a burly monk grumbled and cursed, "If my master hadn’t sent me here to help out, I wouldn’t have bothered coming. You folks look down on others, no wonder you got gnawed down to bones by the Demon Clan."

A novice monk, clutching a quilt, awkwardly attempted to persuade him, "Great Master, you’ve really misunderstood. This time for the Ullambana Festival, monks from all over are gathering, and our Great Xiangguo Temple truly has no more rooms available. For you to have a secluded spot here in the garden is already quite a privilege. Other monks have to pay their own way to stay at inns outside!"

"You guys know nothing!"

The Great Monk slapped them on their heads twice and told them, "I’m saying this not because of prestige, but for the Great Xiangguo Temple’s safety. Allow me to be stationed within the temple, and let’s see which little demons dare to come in and cause trouble!"

The novice monk rubbed his head and chuckled dryly, "Rest assured, Great Master, today three holy monks are visiting our temple. With them here, no demon would dare to create a disturbance!"

"Who are they?"

The Great Monk raised his eyebrows curiously.

The novice monk whispered, "They are the three disciples of the Sandalwood Merit Buddha: one is the Cleansing Altar Envoy, one is the Golden Body Arhat, and the other is Guangli Bodhisattva of the Eight Heavenly Dragons, all with incredible powers."

"It’s them?"

The Great Monk instantly fell silent, touched his head, and said, "Had I known this earlier, I wouldn’t have come from Wutai Mountain."

He was still at the Arhat cultivation level and hadn’t yet forged a golden body, incomparable to these three.

The novice monk laid out the bedding and chuckled, "Great Master came here to listen to sermons, not to fight. Perhaps listening to a discourse from the Sandalwood Buddha could enlighten you to become a Buddha and a patriarch instantly!"

The Great Monk laughed heartily, "You’re quite the speaker, little monk. Here are some pieces of silver for you. Take it and go buy some wine!"

He pulled out a handful of broken silver from his bundle and tossed it to the novice monk.

The novice monk, delightedly accepted it, folded his hands to bid farewell courteously.

After they left, he secretly murmured, "Country folks are indeed country folks, what can anyone do with these pieces of silver?"

"And he wants us to buy wine! Surely a gluttonous monk!"

The two chuckled as they departed, without paying much attention to this Great Monk.

In the dining hall of Great Xiangguo Temple, a table over ten meters long was laden with various foods.

A chubby, pig-nosed, big-mouthed monk was devouring a large basin of rice ravenously, dumping tofu and greens from the table into it, eating them mixed together.

Two monks sat beside him.

One had a face full of beard, while the other was young and handsome, eating quietly and gently.

The monks serving in the dining hall covered their mouths laughing, often adding food and rice to the table.

"Second Brother, Second Brother!"

The bearded monk reminded.

The big-eared monk lifted his head, smacking the inner portions of his food, mumbling, "What’s up?"

The bearded monk embarrassedly said, "Watch your eating manners!"

The big-eared monk wiped his mouth, glanced around at the giggling young monks, and disdainfully said, "Your grandfather is having a meal, what are you laughing at here for?"

He swung his large hand, sending these monks out.

The young one chuckled, shaking his head, "Second Brother, you’re the Cleansing Altar Envoy, at least pay some attention to your image!"

The big-eared monk gulped down a large bowl of oily tea, rinsed his mouth, and said, "Who needs image anyway, with Sun Wukong not around, sending the three of us here; isn’t it just offering pies for demons to eat? I’m filling my belly round now, so I can be a well-fed ghost in the future!"

The bearded monk raised his eyebrows and said, "Second Brother, perhaps it’s not as bad as it seems? This is the capital city of the Great Song, with clear skies and bright earth; could there really be Great Demons here to wreak havoc?"

The big-eared monk picked his teeth with chopsticks and said, "Junior Brother Sha, you’re still too young. These days, Western Heaven belongs to the reign of the Big Belly Buddha, while our Master remains by Tathagata’s side. Currently, he’s neither here nor there, unwelcome both in the West and by the Daoist Sect. Just you wait, this sermon is bound to be more perilous than our journey for scriptures. Otherwise, why would Sun Wukong hide away and not come?"

"Second Brother, how can you speak about Senior Brother like that?"

The bearded monk sighed helplessly, precisely the third disciple of Tang Sanzang, Sha Monk.

Beside him sat a young gentleman, none other than Guangli Bodhisattva, Little White Dragon.

The one eating is their Second Brother, Zhu Bajie.

Speaking of which, Zhu Bajie and Sha Monk now held lesser status in Western Heaven compared to the Little White Dragon who once served as Monk Tang’s mount.

Little White Dragon is now a Bodhisattva, officially a level higher than the two of them.

Yet among them, Little White Dragon still considers himself as the Junior Brother.

He also spoke a fair word for the Senior Brother, "Senior Brother breaking through this time is crucial. Otherwise, why wouldn’t he care about even Master’s safety? Besides, didn’t he assign us a helper?"

Zhu Bajie’s ears perked up, "You mean that new Eastern Emperor? What kind of helper is he? We haven’t even met him yet, probably been devoured by demons."

Little White Dragon coughed twice, solemnly said, "Second Brother, speak cautiously, I know this Eastern Emperor. My father has dealt with him several times; he’s genuine and righteous, definitely not vainly famed."

He introduced them, "Brothers know of Emperor Shi Tian?"

Sha Monk said, "Certainly, the head of the Eight Divisions of Heavenly Dragons!"

Little White Dragon said, "It was the Demon Corpse of this Emperor Shi Tian that was recently slain by the Eastern Emperor. Even the Primordial Blood Mosquito was subdued by the Emperor, and is now whereabouts unknown. And the Patriarch Buddha’s brother-in-law, Great Roc Celestial Venerable, he too was captured by the Eastern Emperor. If not for Peacock Bright King’s plea, he might have faced catastrophe!"

Zhu Bajie and Sha Monk exclaimed together, "Wow, that powerful?"

Little White Dragon assured, "Not an exaggeration, or else, how could Senior Brother be at ease entrusting Master to him?"

Zhu Bajie covered his mouth, "Why didn’t you say earlier? If old pig were heard by him, I’d be beaten to death."

"You know fear!"

Sha Monk and Little White Dragon both laughed, and after finishing the meal, they promptly summoned monks from the temple to prepare defenses.

The Great Xiangguo Temple’s monks, including those who came from other places for the sermon, now numbered over ten thousand.

Sadly, this outcome was disappointing for the three, as all these monks were merely dull, capable only of chanting and meditation.

Not one among them had true martial skills.

Sha Monk scratched his head in distress, sighed, "No wonder demons dare to rush into this temple causing chaos, turns out not a single monk here possesses genuine skills."

Zhu Bajie gnawed on a big pancake, "Chanting, chanting, all they know is chanting; besides chanting, what else can these monks do!"

Little White Dragon reassured them, "Protecting Master shouldn’t fall upon them. In the current situation, it’s up to us."

Among the monks, one with shifty eyes chuckled secretly.

After the monks dispersed, one person employed the Earth Escape Technique and vanished from the temple.
