649: Chapter 246: Good to Come_2 649: Chapter 246: Good to Come_2 Facing the wild, storm-like assaults from the two attackers, the Senior Commander-in-Chief was driven back in a frenzy.
He looked up to the skies and howled, almost unable to hold on any longer.
Sun Wukong and Yang Jian were far too ferocious.
Together, they pummeled him relentlessly, leaving him no room even to breathe.
Even when facing four top Heavenly Venerates, he wouldn’t be this disheveled.
Shao Siming was somewhat surprised, casting a worried glance at the Senior Commander-in-Chief.
Her momentary distraction allowed Tathagata Buddha to seize the opportunity, striking her pectoral muscles directly with Buddha’s Light.
Shao Siming was sent flying immediately, her pretty face flushing red as her pectoral muscle was brutally crushed.
This instantly drove her crazy, and her eyes filled with fury as she glared at Tathagata Buddha.
“Shameless cretin,”
Shao Siming cursed angrily.
However, Tathagata Buddha was somewhat embarrassed, saying hesitantly, “If I say it was not intentional, would Shao Siming believe me?”
“I’ll believe you once you’re dead,”
Shao Siming maneuvering her Mysterious Skill, healing her pectoral muscle.
She glared coldly at Tathagata Buddha, her disdain for him reaching its peak.
Seeing that Shao Siming didn’t believe him, Tathagata Buddha brought his palms together and said gravely, “Since Shao Siming doesn’t believe, there’s nothing this poor monk can do but to kill Shao Siming.
Then, there will be no need for belief.”
“Arrogant old monk,” Shao Siming said disdainfully.
Tathagata Buddha was taken aback, then couldn’t resist retorting, “Shao Siming, that’s a bit too much, don’t you think?
Who’s older between us, really?
I haven’t even called you an old woman yet.
Compared to you, this monk is still a young man.”
Old woman?
There’s probably no woman who could endure such a label.
Shao Siming was no exception.
Her face turned dark, her eyes cold and emotionless, fixed on Tathagata Buddha, ready to strike him down at any moment.
Seeing Shao Siming annoyed didn’t make Tathagata Buddha fearful; instead, he smiled faintly, saying, “A monk doesn’t lie.
Although Shao Siming appears young and fresh, she really is an old woman.
I can smell the old age on you.”
Shao Siming was left speechless, just glaring coldly at Tathagata Buddha.
“Are you done talking?”
Shao Siming asked.
For some reason, seeing Shao Siming’s expression at that moment gave Tathagata a fleeting sense of guilt.
It seemed now Shao Siming was even more terrifying, making him somewhat afraid to face her.
“Yes, I’m done,”
Tathagata Buddha answered honestly.
Shao Siming said coldly, “Now that you are done, you can peacefully pave your way to the afterlife.
If there’s a next life, don’t be so insolent with your words.”
Having said that, Shao Siming took action directly.
At this moment, she was silent,
but her strikes were at least twice as ferocious as before.
Tathagata Buddha dodged left and right, evading in a pitiful way.
Now, he could only defend reactively.
He was regretting now.
He hadn’t expected that a woman spurred by provocation could be so overwhelmingly powerful in battle.
While the two were initially evenly matched, even with Tathagata Buddha having a slight advantage,
he was now being overwhelmed, completely unable to block Shao Siming’s attacks.
Every move Shao Siming made was brutal and decisive, each one aiming at Tathagata Buddha’s life.
Tathagata Buddha lamented, this was the price of running his mouth.
He still misunderstood women; he hadn’t expected that when provoked, a woman wouldn’t lash out like men often do, but would become even more composed.
This state of Shao Siming’s wasn’t true composure, but a calm fury.
That is to say, she was now furiously calm, not as wild, yet seeming very rational in her actions.
However, due to her rage, her attack power had greatly increased.
Now, Tathagata Buddha truly felt like he was riding a tiger, unable to dismount.
Provoking the mother tiger came with this price.
From a distance, the Tenth Prince of the Golden Crow watched the ongoing battle and smiled.
“Tenth Prince, it’s a pity that Senior Commander and the others meant to harm us; otherwise, if we had joined forces now, we could have defeated Sun Wukong and the rest.”
The Tenth Prince of the Golden Crow expressed his regret,
wishing they could kill both Sun Wukong and Yang Jian, even eliminate Tathagata Buddha.
Then, Great Emperor Ziwei would lose his left and right arms, along with a powerful combatant like Tathagata Buddha.
But now, he couldn’t take action,
as Senior Commander and Shao Siming had dared plot against him, even seeking to kill them.
He now wished he could personally kill Shao Siming and Senior Commander, hardly inclined to help them.
Baize also appeared regretful,
wishing that if Senior Commander and the others hadn’t been so malicious, infringing on both his and the Tenth Prince’s bottom line, they might have acted to help against Sun Wukong and the others right now.
Losing any of these three figures would be a heavy blow for Ziwei Heavenly Court,
with Yang Jian as the Judicial Deity, even described as the Second Heavenly Emperor.
His authority was alarmingly high, almost on par with Great Emperor Ziwei.
The role such an individual played within Heavenly Court was significant,
and if Yang Jian were killed, today’s Ziwei Heavenly Court would definitely be thrown into chaos for a while,
and replacing a capable Judicial Deity like Yang Jian wouldn’t be easy.
As for Sun Wukong, he had helped establish the Ziwei Heavenly Court, and up to eighty percent of the Heavenly Venerate’s combat power above the court had good relationships with Sun Wukong.
If Sun Wukong were to die, it would definitely cause a great commotion.
Those who had helped Heavenly Court on account of Sun Wukong might not stand with Ziwei Heavenly Court anymore.
