Chapter 953 - 957: I Am the Father, All Beings Are My Children

Did the groom voluntarily get killed?

Both the Golden Buddha and the people of the Beast Clan were momentarily stunned, thinking to themselves how this could be possible?

Today was supposed to be the groom’s most joyous day, how could he voluntarily be killed?

Unless he was a fool.

The Golden Buddha’s eyes turned, fixing on Wu Tian, the corner of his mouth curled into a benevolent smile: "Amitabha, would the benefactor please share the reason?"

Wu Tian shook his head: "This is the secret of the Mantis Clan."

"The old monk will keep the secret." the Golden Buddha said.

The other members of the Beast Clan all nodded in agreement.

Of course, some from the Beast Clan remained silent; they knew themselves well, and understood that if they knew such a secret, they couldn’t guarantee not to reveal it under circumstances like drunkenness or torture, so it was better not to know.

"Can you guarantee that you truly won’t tell anyone?" Wu Tian surveyed the beings around him mockingly.

The expressions of the curious beings appeared reflected in Wu Tian’s eyes, most just wanted to know for gossip’s sake.

But would they really not tell?

They couldn’t guarantee it; they were simply driven by curiosity.

The curious ones glanced at each other, guarantee?

How to guarantee it?

Once more, the Golden Buddha joined his hands in prayer: "Wu Tian, if the groom truly chose death voluntarily, there must be an unavoidable grievance in it. Speak, and we will find ways to resolve it."

Wu Tian laughed: "You don’t have that ability."

Boom!

At that moment, the atmosphere instantly became tense!

Wu Tian speaking frankly caused the Golden Buddha and the Beast Clan beings to stare fixedly at him, fury etched at the corners of their mouths.

What a joke!

Saying we cannot resolve it is calling us incompetent!

What a joke!

There are many of us here, even the Golden Buddha, how could it be unresolved?

Even the Golden Buddha felt disbelief that he wouldn’t succeed in solving the problem.

... A young creature watched the scene from the side, while pulling on Qin Yuhan, asking her to feed him something.

Dao Feng, Si’er, and others trusted Wu Tian’s words; even if Wu Tian said the sun rose from the west, they believed it unwaveringly.

Miaoshan, Daji, and Master Li the Fortune Teller didn’t expect trouble wherever Wu Tian went,

without a doubt, he was a man favored by misfortune!

... "I advise you all, don’t bother me." Wu Tian said annoyed, his tone cold.

"As long as the benefactor reveals the problem, we won’t pester any longer." the Golden Buddha said.

Many Beast Clan beings nodded similarly, too curious to understand why the groom would willingly die.

"It seems there’s only one path left." At this moment, Wu Tian’s words left the Golden Buddha and many Beast Clan beings shocked.

Listening to Wu Tian, was he finally going to speak?

The Golden Buddha, Beast Clan beings, widened their eyes and strained their ears, excited to finally learn the gossip.

Just then, Wu Tian’s next words caused their smiles to freeze instantly.

"You want to pester me? I shall drive you away."

As soon as he said that, most Beast Clan beings paused, and the Golden Buddha was dumbfounded.

Silence!

At that moment, the atmosphere there became suffocating!

"Amitabha." The Golden Buddha’s face showed compassion, a disappointment as if looking at uneducated steel, gazing at Wu Tian with empathy, yet saying: "Benefactor, your temper is excessively large; why cause such a commotion? We spoke courteously with you; we never acted with force."

"Right."

Most Beast Clan beings nodded, staring resolutely at Wu Tian, their eyes flashing with anger: "We just want you to reveal the secret so we can solve it together."

"Yes, we want to know this secret to resolve it."

"Why guard this for yourself?"

"Speak out; solving it together would be better."

They had strength in numbers and didn’t fear Wu Tian.

Feeling morally righteous, they were fearless.

... The Golden Buddha’s eyes filled with compassion, looking at Wu Tian as if gazing at his child.

"Mr. Wu Tian, the Buddha Emperor says all beings are his children; so... child, speak, and the old monk will help resolve your issue."

Wu Tian glared at the Golden Buddha and the Beast Clan beings, treating them as fools.

"You think of resolving it? You learn only to satisfy yourselves."

"As for helping? Why waste time on such matters?"

"As for Buddha? Haha, Wutian Celestial Emperor once left behind sayings about Buddha, like all beings are equal. The meaning isn’t some understanding like all beings are children, and I’m the father as nonsensical as that."

Wu Tian’s candid speech voiced what many in the Beast Clan wanted to know, why did the male mantis willingly die?

Helping solve it?

If it’s troublesome, they aren’t interested; they claim to find ways on the surface but don’t actually ponder it!

But even if this was true, openly admitting it was unacceptable.

The Beast Clan beings erupted in anger!

... But none were angrier than the Golden Buddha,

The Buddhists revered the Buddha Emperor’s sayings as absolute truths, never mistaken.

For Wu Tian to openly distort this truth was a grave error.

The Buddha Emperor’s saying of equality was embracing all as the father and beings as children.

How could Wu Tian misrepresent it?

Wu Tian chuckled, equality among beings was initially a notion he introduced in the Immortal Emperor Realm,

his sayings evolved across families over time.

Because at the time of Wu Tian, knowledge of these sayings was limited to a few words,

so over many millennia, distortion was inevitable.

... "Wu Tian, you’re spreading falsehoods, slandering us, apologize."

"Yes, we want to understand the groom’s death to find a solution; failing to do so isn’t our fault."

"Right, it’s not our fault; you can’t claim we only want to know without any time to help find solutions. That’s slander; you must apologize."

The Beast Clan beings felt this way, and the Golden Buddha even more: "The Buddha Emperor says all beings are equal; I am the father, beings are the children—this cannot be wrong. Mr. Wu Tian, your words insult both the Buddha Emperor and the Quasi-Immortal Emperor. Mr. Wu Tian, you must spend ten years with the Green Lamp Ancient Buddha to reconcile with the Buddha Emperor."

The concept of karma was also first mentioned by Wu Tian in the Immortal Emperor Realm,

and is now utilized by the Buddhist Sect.

At this moment, the Beast Clan beings and the Golden Buddha all pressured Wu Tian to apologize and serve the Green Lamp Ancient Buddha.

A grand aura enveloped Wu Tian.

They advanced step by step towards Wu Tian, demanding compliance.

The young creature exclaimed "666," then called out: "Dad, do you need us to help you?"

Wu Tian shook his head: "Clowns, unnecessary."
