Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 1948 - 457: The Living Buddha Takes Action (Part 3)

Even he himself was just a chess piece in this giant hand.

Basiba frowned, and at that moment, suddenly heard a rush of footsteps. Following this, Tuotuo appeared hurriedly with his men and said to Basiba, "Lord State Preceptor, something terrible has happened!"

Basiba looked at him, and Tuotuo continued, "Lord State Preceptor, the Imperial Palace is on fire. There must be some trouble. We need to quickly go rescue Your Majesty, if we’re late, it will be a disaster!"

After listening to Tuotuo’s words, Basiba looked at him and said, "It’s good that Lord Prime Minister is here. I ask you, why was Dharma Ba assigned to the Heavenly Prison? He is the Emperor’s trusted aide!"

Upon hearing this, an awkward expression immediately appeared on Tuotuo’s face. He pondered for a long while and then said, "Lord State Preceptor, this... this matter is a long story. Let’s first go save Your Majesty. If anything happens to Your Majesty, then Daqian will be finished!"

Although Basiba frowned, he didn’t move. Tuotuo became even more anxious, pleading with Basiba, "Lord State Preceptor, I beg you, Daqian cannot be without His Majesty!"

Basiba remained silent, and at this moment, Tuotuo was truly anxious. He had reassigned the Emperor’s guard, Dharma Ba, and if anything happened to the Emperor because of this, his opposition forces would have grounds to attack him.

Especially if something were to happen to the Emperor, it would be difficult to maintain his power. Realizing this, he became extremely anxious.

At this time, Basiba furrowed his brows, moving the Buddha Beads in his hand one by one.

And just then, footsteps were heard from outside. Following the sound of footsteps, a monk outside was heard saying: "Lord Living Buddha, a decree has been issued by His Majesty."

Upon hearing this, Tuotuo, before Basiba could react, immediately shouted: "Quickly, quickly invite him in."

Basiba frowned, but Tuotuo ignored this and directly summoned the decree-carrying eunuch inside. The eunuch proceeded inside, saw Basiba, and hurriedly knelt in greeting, "This servant pays respects to the Living Buddha!"

Basiba frowned even deeper and said, "I have told you, there is no need to salute me."

After saying this, the eunuch continued, "Yes, it was my mistake. However, Living Buddha, His Majesty has issued a verbal decree."

Basiba said, "Speak."

Upon hearing this, the eunuch immediately stood up and said, "His Majesty’s verbal decree is that intruders have breached the palace, and the Living Buddha must immediately go to protect the Emperor!"

Upon hearing this, Tuotuo immediately said: "Lord State Preceptor, look, see, this is indeed a decree from His Majesty!"

Basiba sighed and said, "Sigh, so be it, I shall go once."

Upon saying this, Basiba immediately stood up, then looked outside and said, "I wish to leave, you all follow afterwards."

Saying this, Basiba waved his hand towards the Divine Eagle in the sky. The next moment, the Divine Eagle descended directly from the high tower and lay on the ground.

At this time, Basiba lightly landed on the back of the Divine Eagle, then patted the head of the Divine Eagle, and immediately the Divine Eagle carried him and took to the skies.

Seeing Basiba take flight, Tuotuo immediately shouted: "Quickly, quickly, quickly notify the army to follow me into the palace to rescue the Emperor!"

"Yes!"

With an order, a group of people rushed in the direction of the Imperial Palace, and at this moment, Zhao Ya’s group, hidden on the outskirts of the Great Buddha Temple, exchanged glances and said, "The city is in such chaos, yet the Living Buddha can remain so calm!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Baobao said, "Isn’t that so? The Imperial Palace is ablaze, yet the Living Buddha doesn’t move?"

At this moment, Mei Tu followed with, "The reason is that he is the Living Buddha. Such equanimity is not something us mere mortals can fathom."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ya looked at Mei Tu and said, "I really didn’t expect you to show such respect towards the Living Buddha."

Mei Tu gave a wry smile and said, "Respect, who in this world dares not to respect the Living Buddha?"

Zhao Ya said, "I thought that since the Living Buddha fought with your Sect Hierarch, you would hold a grudge and speak ill of the Living Buddha."

Mei Tu said, "Logically, that should be the case, but I’m not foolish. The Living Buddha is an Earthly Immortal, how could I dare speak ill of him?"

"Shh!"

As the two women were speaking, suddenly Wang Baobao made a motion for silence. The next moment, everyone immediately became alert as they heard an eagle cry from within the Great Buddha Temple.

Ah~

The sound pierced directly through the heavens, truly shaking the sky. At this moment, Wang Baobao pointed towards the top of the Divine Eagle and said, "Look, is that monk in the moon-white robe the Living Buddha?"

Upon hearing this, Mei Tu looked over, then said, "No, isn’t your Living Buddha a child? This one looks only about seven or eight years old."

Wang Baobao also frowned and said, "Indeed, this Living Buddha seems too young. I remember having the honor to see the Living Buddha’s dignified appearance; he should be a kind old man."

"Who is this little monk then? The Living Buddha’s illegitimate child?"

Mei Tu joked, to which Zhao Ya replied, "He should be the Living Buddha!"

"Hmm?"

Wang Baobao looked at Zhao Ya in surprise and said, "Him?"

Zhao Ya explained, "In the scriptures of the Esoteric Sect, there is a record. It is said that those with great Divine Skills can reincarnate."

"Reincarnate?"

Everyone looked at Zhao Ya with bewilderment. Zhao Ya said, "That’s right, reincarnation is possible. This is a very powerful Cultivation Technique of the Esoteric Sect, called the Relic Rebirth Skill or something like that, I can’t quite remember."

"It states that, for the great masters of the Esoteric Sect, as long as they’re not killed on the spot, they can ensure rebirth later at the cost of a relic."

"Rebirth?"

Mei Tu looked at Zhao Ya in wonder. Zhao Ya said, "That’s right, it’s exactly the kind of rebirth you’re thinking of, starting from a baby!"

Mei Tu took a deep breath and said, "This, this is too incredible!"

Zhao Ya said, "This is the strength of the Esoteric Sect."

Wang Baobao, upon hearing this, was also left dumbfounded. The Rebirth Technique is truly terrifying.
