Chapter 244: For the Sake of All Beings

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A spy?

Amon and Backo were perplexed.

Backo nearly threw up blood.

A golden light exuded from his body like cancer being imprinted on it. On the part Yuecha attacked, there was a golden Buddha sign glowing like the brightest star in the night sky.

‘Is this a…buddha sign?!’ Backo’s pupils dilated. He was so shocked that he almost cried out loud as if he had just seen a ghost. ‘Are you crazy? We’re demons! Yet, you went and practiced Buddhism?!’ Amon snapped out from his thoughts. He cried out, “Possessed! Yuecha’s possessed! Tell me, who’re you?”

“Who am I before I was born? Who am I when I’m born? Who am I when I grow up? Who am I when I close my eyes?” Yuecha looked at Amon with an astonishing look, her eyes filled with awe. “You’re so wise. You asked such a fundamental question. You’re fated to be a Buddhism.”

Amon was dumbfounded. He said, “Fated?! Yuecha, have you gone crazy? When did you become this way?”

“I didn’t have a choice before, but now… I only want to be a good person.” Yuecha took off her black armor and put on a robe. “Amitabha, Buddhist Yuecha’s here.”

Spit!

This time, Backo did not hold it in. He instantly spat out a mouthful of blood. “Is your brain functioning? We’re demons! Demons! You should be good at being a demon, but now you’re being good at the wrong thing!”

“Demons, humans, Immortals are just what we call ourselves. In this massive universe, we’re just dust, similar to one another.” Yuecha’s voice was calm and hurt, exuding an air of Buddhism from within. Instantly, she looked sacred. “I’m doing this for the sake of all beings!”

“I…!” Backo had nothing to say. He gulped and swallowed back the blood.

“Yuecha, aren’t you scared of being punished by the Lord Demon God?!” Amon scoffed coldly. “Buddhism has been washed out by time. It’s acting against us, the demons. We’ll live on forever, our Lord Demon God is omnipotent! You’ll have a terrible death!”

“From today onward, I, Yuecha will bring back the glory to Buddhism! To enlighten all the beings.” Yuecha’s face was compassionate and sacred. She looked at Amon and said, “You said the Lord Demon God is omnipotent. If so, could he create a stone that he can’t pick up?”

Amon replied without thinking, “How hard would that be?”

Yuecha continued, “If the Lord Demon God cannot pick up a stone, how’s he omnipotent?”

“This…” Amon was perplexed.

Yuecha continued, “As you can see, the Lord Demon God can’t be it! There’s no end to the suffering. Just come back to the shore. Come on, come to Buddhism.”

Amon was still perplexed. “Wait up. Why would the Lord Demon God create such a rock?”

Yuecha asked, “But, can he?”

Amon asked, “But, why would he?”

“It appears that you’re not enlightened.” Yuecha’s face instantly turned serious. “So, let me transform you. First, take my Heavenly Dragon…”

Amon’s face darkened. He scoffed loudly, “Backo, Yuecha’s helpless. We’ll join forces to take her down!”

“Take my Demon Flame Swallowing the Sky!”

“Where? Take my second Heavenly Dragon!”

“Do you only have one trick!?”

“Heavenly Dragon!”

…

Below, Gu Yuan and everyone else were like sculptures, watching this unbelievable series of events unfold.

Even as the three demons fought, their battle going further and further away, they were still unable to snap back to reality. It was like a dream!

Gu Changqing could not help licking his lips. He could not believe it. “Grandpa, that… Yuecha’s a spy?”

“She said so.” Gu Yuan nodded blankly. “However, she seems to be using Dharma. How can that be? Dharma still exists in the world?” He coughed gently in pain and spat out a mouthful of blood.

He simply wiped away his blood. He could not help shaking his head. “What was I doing earlier? It seems that everyone gathered together like fools!”

He used up his strength to stop the demons while the demons used up everything to unseal the Kraken.

Finally, they found out that the enemies they were trying to defeat released a spy!

What a screw-up! Perhaps nobody would believe it even if they told them.

Gu Changqing suddenly speculated, “Grandpa, do you think it was the doing of the expert?”

“Oh? How so?” Gu Yuan asked curiously.

Gu Changqing analyzed, “Grandpa, do you remember in ‘Journey to the West’, the main point of the story was Buddhism. It seems that the expert’s into Buddhism.”

“Wonderful! Your understanding has skyrocketed after spending time with the expert!” Gu Yuan praised and said, “I heard about a secret rumor in the Immortal Land. I don’t know how true it is. Back in ancient times, Buddhism was at its peak and there were at least a hundred and eight Buddhas. However, since the appearance of demons that came out of nowhere, the world had a crisis and it wiped out the entire Buddhism religion. The only person who still knows about Buddhism is probably the expert alone!”

Gu Changqing sighed. “The expert’s setup is indeed unmistakable. Chess pieces everywhere, how fascinating!”

Gu Yuan nodded deeply. “Yeah, even the demon servant was able to be transformed into a spy. How unbelievable!”

…

At the four-part architecture.

It was very lively. Everyone was doing their things.

This was merely because Li Nianfan suddenly thought about making a cake.

Originally, he was grinding the flour as he usually did. He was trying to decide if he should make the steamed buns, vegetable buns, or meat buns.

Suddenly, he saw the Firefinch Demon by the side and his eyes flickered. He now had eggs, flour, and flavoring. Why did he not think of making a cake?

Thinking about what the cake would taste like, he could not help drooling.

With that, he could not wait to get into action.

He had a freshly laid egg in his hands. He cracked it into a bowl and used chopsticks to whisk it. He then added a pinch of salt to make the egg even more diluted and yellow.

He then added in room-temperature water. That was a key ingredient. Too little of it would make the cake too stiff and chunky while too much of it would make the cake too watery and unappetizing.

Normally, one egg needed two eggshells full of water. In simpler terms, the water to egg ratio would be two to one.

Of course, Li Nianfan knew about these. Effortlessly, he prepared the ingredients.

Daji was helping him while Xiao Bai was in charge of kneading the flour. The Fire Phoenix glanced at the lighter, pushed it toward a corner and made a gesture. A flame appeared below the pot.

Boil-boil-boil!

The water inside the pot started to boil.

Instantly, Li Nianfan put the egg over the steaming water and closed the lid. The Fire Phoenix was supposed to control the fire.

He left a gap instead of closing the lid tight. If not, the steamed cake would be stiff and hard.

Swiftly after, Li Nianfan moved on to the second one.

Dagin was laying by the side. Her small head tilted to one side. She was watching everyone running around. Their actions opened her eyes, making her drool.

Although she did not know what cake was, it must be yummy! Waa…so excited!

The Fire Phoenix looked at her and scoffed, “Go and water the plants at the back!”

Dragin shook her head and said coquettishly “No, let me watch. I’ll water them in the afternoon.”

“No way! Go, now!” The Fire Phoenix was not budging.

Dragin looked as if she was wronged. She was unwilling to leave.

After a moment of hesitation, she thought it was time to show her power. She gritted her teeth and said in a small voice, “Sister Fire Phoenix, I’ll tell you a secret. My ancestor’s in the backyard and he’s super powerful!”
