Tathagata Buddha said to Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong did not even glance at him, his expression serious as he stood there, completely immobile.
A thought crossed Tathagata Buddha’s mind, and then he exclaimed in surprise, "That is the Great Saint’s false body."
The immortals were in an uproar—was the Sun Wukong standing above in the Heavenly Court a fake?
This was something they had not anticipated, and it was utterly indiscernible.
"The Judicial Deity and the Great Sage Equalling Heaven are already by Great God Great Yi’s side, so as long as Shao Siming and the others dare make a move, they can protect Great Yi and capture Shao Siming and her group simultaneously."
Great Emperor Ziwei gave a faint smile.
Even Tathagata Buddha was taken aback.
He thought his scheming was already formidable, but he had not expected that the plotting of Great Emperor Ziwei and others was truly formidable.
Without changing their expression, they had arranged everything.
Tathagata Buddha bitterly smiled; however, he also understood that although Great Emperor Ziwei said he trusted him, he was also giving him a warning.
The words spoken just now had the intent to warn him.
Even Shao Siming’s such calculations were seen through by Sun Wukong and others, if he tried to plot anything, it would probably not escape their notice.
Thinking of this, Tathagata Buddha sighed dejectedly in his heart.
It was not just that he now had no opportunity, as long as there were no major upheavals in the Heavenly Court, or even just as long as Ziwei, Sun Wukong, and Yang Jian were still there, without even The Three Pure Ones, he would not stand a chance.
At that moment, Tathagata Buddha glanced at Great Emperor Ziwei and suddenly showed a look of shock.
At this time, Great Emperor Ziwei, with his aura retracted, gave him a feeling of being unfathomable.
Is it because of the power of the masses and the fortune of the Heavenly Court amassing onto him, allowing Great Emperor Ziwei to perfectly conceal his realm, or is it because he has already reached the supreme level, but is keeping it secret, letting others think he is just below that supreme status, underestimating him in their dealings?
If it were the latter possibility, Great Emperor Ziwei would be too terrifying.
Apart from Sun Wukong and Yang Jian, whom he trusts most, he might have deceived the entire Three Realms.
Tathagata Buddha completely refocused, staring into the Cloud Mirror.
Great God Great Yi looked resolute as he continued to search the Three Realms, trying to locate Shao Siming and her group.
From his appearance, he seemed utterly unaware of this matter.
Seeing Tathagata’s puzzled expression, Great Emperor Ziwei smiled faintly and said, "Only I, the Judicial Deity, and Wukong know about this matter; no one else does."
Even Gold Star Taibai was kept in the dark.
Just now, he was puzzled why Sun Wukong, guessing Shao Siming and her group’s intentions, remained inactive within the Heavenly Court; this was uncharacteristic of the Great Saint.
Now Gold Star Taibai understood that Sun Wukong and the others had already left; they just hadn’t told everyone.
The reason they hadn’t informed Great Yi was because they were worried that Great Yi would be alerted, making it easier to reveal flaws.
In the Lower Realm, Baize received the news that Tathagata Buddha had ascended to the Heavenly Court.
He revealed a confident smile and conveyed through secret technique, "Crown Prince, Shao Siming, you can take action now. Tathagata Buddha has ascended to the Heavenly Court; I believe no one now has the time to pay attention to Great Yi."
Upon hearing Baize’s words, Tenth Son of the Golden Crow and others flashed a cold light in their eyes and immediately charged out, blocking Great Yi.
Great Yi’s expression changed; he had not expected to be surrounded.
From the appearance of the others, they were clearly well-prepared.
Shao Siming and the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow, together with five other Great Heavenly Venerates, were certainly enough to hunt down Great Yi.
