Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings

Chapter 518 - 512: The Peacock Great Ming King Takes the Blame

Lady Ming King walked ahead, followed closely by Bai Ze and Xiang Liu, their steps quick and full of urgency.

Soon, Lady Ming King led Bai Ze and Xiang Liu to the pavilion where the Life Lamps were stored.

At the entrance of the pavilion, two Little Monks were chatting.

Upon seeing Lady Ming King arrive with the Great Wisdom Buddha and Pingjiang Dinghai Buddha, they quickly fell silent, standing at the door in a formal and solemn manner.

Upon seeing the Little Monks, Lady Ming King immediately inquired, "Did you patrol the Lamp Pavilion on schedule?"

Hearing this, the two Little Monks quickly replied, "Reporting to Lady Ming King, we dare not neglect, we patrol daily as usual."

Then, one Little Monk continued to inquire, "In the Lamp Pavilion, has any Life Lamp extinguished?"

The two Little Monks exchanged a glance, then shook their heads, "No Life Lamp has extinguished, according to the rules, if any Life Lamp extinguishes, we must report it immediately."

"We dare not conceal anything, in the Lamp Pavilion, no Life Lamp has extinguished."

After receiving a definite answer from the two Little Monks, Lady Ming King glanced at Bai Ze and Xiang Liu behind her.

Bai Ze hesitated briefly, then said to Lady Ming King, "Let’s go have a look!"

Bai Ze still wanted to see for himself, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to relax.

This Lamp Pavilion isn’t involved in any secrets, if Bai Ze wants to see it, let him see it.

Thus, Lady Ming King instructed the Little Monks guarding the Lamp Pavilion, "Open the pavilion doors."

The Little Monk quickly opened the doors of the Lamp Pavilion and said, "Lady Ming King, Great Wisdom Buddha, Pingjiang Dinghai Buddha, please come in."

After inviting Lady Ming King and the two Buddhas inside, the Little Monk thought to himself, "Hmph!

"If you don’t believe what we say, you can see for yourself, it’s the same."

Lady Ming King led Bai Ze and Xiang Liu to the place where the Life Lamps were stored.

The position where these Life Lamps were stored was indeed very carefully chosen.

In the Sect, the higher the status, the better the position of the Life Lamp, naturally.

Within the World Honored One Sect, Tier Two Peak Experts are limited, so Bai Ze and Xiang Liu easily found the Chongming Bird’s Life Lamp.

At this moment, the Chongming Bird’s Life Lamp was burning brightly, showing no sign of extinguishing.

Upon seeing the Chongming Bird’s Life Lamp still lit, Bai Ze sighed in relief.

The lamp still lit meant that the Chongming Bird was still alive.

Being alive is certainly better than being dead.

As long as there is life, there is hope for recovery.

If the lamp had extinguished, whatever actions taken would be too late.

"The Great Auspicious Buddha’s Life Lamp is still lit!" Lady Ming King said with a heavy tone.

Bai Ze nodded, replying, "It seems this way, the Great Auspicious Buddha must have encountered some danger and is trapped."

Upon hearing this, Lady Ming King asked in confusion, "The Great Auspicious Buddha went to pacify Black Dragon Heaven, how could Black Dragon Heaven, only a Tier Three Peak, trap the Great Auspicious Buddha?"

The danger Chongming Bird faced, Bai Ze did not know.

This was also something Bai Ze couldn’t understand.

Bai Ze furrowed his brow and said deeply, "This I do not know!"

"Perhaps something dangerous was encountered on the way there."

"Or perhaps there is something strange about Black Dragon Heaven."

After saying this, Bai Ze said to Lady Ming King, "Lady Ming King, the disappearance of the Great Auspicious Buddha is no small matter. There’s a high possibility of a conspiracy involved in this."

"I request Lady Ming King to summon the Medicine King Buddha, Infinite Buddha, Dingguang Buddha, and others to discuss this matter."

The disappearance of the Chongming Bird instilled a sense of crisis in Bai Ze.

Or rather, Bai Ze sensed a hint of conspiracy in the disappearance of the Chongming Bird.

Bai Ze felt that the Chongming Bird’s disappearance most likely involved a hidden hand targeting them.

If this continued unchecked, they might not survive.

Having pledged allegiance to the World Honored, Bai Ze certainly would not undertake this alone.

He needed the strength of the World Honored One Sect to ensure his and Xiang Liu’s safety.

"Is the Peacock Great Ming King responsible?"

"Or the old tortoise named Bai?" Bai Ze contemplated.

After consideration, Bai Ze still felt the likelihood was higher for the Peacock Great Ming King to act.

This was the World Honored’s territory, even if the Chongming Bird encountered trouble near the Silent Sea, it was still close to the World Honored’s domain.

The old tortoise named Bai likely wouldn’t dare act recklessly in World Honored’s territory, moreover, they had no deep-seated enmity with Elder Bai, no reason for Elder Bai to take such risks.

Instead, it seemed to be the Peacock Great Ming King; the Peacock Great Ming King has been in the Sect for many years, with many experts having close ties with him.

Being able to make the Chongming Bird disappear without a trace in the territory of the World Honored seems only possible by the Peacock Great Ming King.

Furthermore, they had enmity with the Peacock Great Ming King, giving him every reason to act.

Thinking of the Peacock Great Ming King made Bai Ze shiver with fear.

It’s known that the destruction of the Ten Thousand Mountains was entirely due to the Peacock Great Ming King.

In the battle at Ten Thousand Mountains, the Peacock Great Ming King indeed frightened Bai Ze and his allies terribly.

At the mention of the Peacock Great Ming King, Bai Ze and his allies were deeply afraid.

Thus realizing the possibility of the Peacock Great Ming King acting, Bai Ze insisted on involving the Medicine King Buddha and others for enough courage to investigate the matter.

The joining of Bai Ze, Xiang Liu, and Chongming Bird into the Sect as Buddhas was entirely facilitated by Lady Ming King.

The three of them counted as Lady Ming King’s achievements.

Therefore, with the Chongming Bird’s incident, Lady Ming King couldn’t just ignore it.

"Alright!"

"I will immediately summon the Medicine King Buddha and the other Buddhas to discuss this matter!" Lady Ming King readily agreed.

Lady Ming King first dispatched someone to invite the Medicine King Buddha, Dingguang Buddha, Infinite Buddha, then took Bai Ze and Xiang Liu to the grand hall to await.

Soon after, Medicine King Buddha, Dingguang Buddha, and Infinite Buddha arrived one after another.

"Lady Ming King summoned us here, did the Great Auspicious Buddha succeed in pacifying?" Dingguang Buddha asked upon entering the grand hall.

Before Lady Ming King could speak, Infinite Buddha followed up with, "Why don’t we see the Great Auspicious Buddha?"

After Infinite Buddha finished speaking, Lady Ming King intervened, "Everyone, the Great Auspicious Buddha, I’m afraid something has happened."

Then Lady Ming King recounted the entire story truthfully.

After listening to the story, Medicine King Buddha and the others had grim expressions.

The identity of the Great Auspicious Buddha was recognized by the World Honored, now, someone has acted against a Buddha under the World Honored’s command, this is a slap to the World Honored’s face, a slap to the Sect’s face!

Medicine King Buddha pondered for a moment, then asked Bai Ze and Xiang Liu, "You two have been with the Great Auspicious Buddha day in and day out. What are your thoughts on this matter?"
