The moment Xuan Zang said this, the reactions of the people in the Great Hall were all different.
Sun Wukong already knew what Xuan Zang was thinking, but he was not surprised at the moment, he only held the Jingu Bang, and swept his gaze over the crowd of Gods, pausing on Medrofurazone, Luo Han, and the others for a moment, and then his gaze landed on Tathagata's face, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly in ridicule.
Zhu Bajie and Sand Monk looked at Liu Tie in surprise. The position of the buddhist leader wasn't something that could be seen everywhere along the road, even though the reputation of the buddhist sects had already dropped greatly after Sun Wukong's farce.
After all, the current buddhist faith was still the main character of the Infinitesimal Calamity, it was struck by the destiny of heaven and earth. The Eastern Crossing Buddha Dharma also had a general trend, and the current Heavenly Court, which had divided one into three, was completely unable to stop it.
Unless something unexpected happened to the buddhist faith and the buddhist faith was unable to take care of itself, otherwise, the rise of the buddhist faith was inevitable!
It was not an exaggeration to say that as long as Xuan Zang inherited the position of the leader of the Buddhist Sect, his status in the Three Realms would instantly rise to the same height as Huai Ti and Celestial Sovereign Yuan Shi.
Otherwise, if Xuan Zang was just a newly promoted Saint, it would be hard for him to be acknowledged by the other Saints in the Three Realms if he did not have the heaven-defying combat power of Xiao Tian!
In the eyes of Zhu Bajie and Sand Monk, Xuan Zang's rejection of Tathagata's invitation was undoubtedly a rejection of a ticket to the Three Realms' top-level existence circle!
"Master …" Zhu Bajie pounded his chest as his gaze fell on Xuan Zang. He said with regret, "You're confused!"
Whether it was active or passive, at least he had this level of status. Once Xuan Zang inherited the position of the Buddhist leader, he would be able to use Xuan Zang's tiger skin as a banner. At that time, his position in the Three Realms would not be as awkward as it was now.
Now that Xuan Zang had rejected Tathagata's invitation, his plan naturally failed. Without a backer like the Buddhist sect, even if Xuan Zang was a saint, his status in the Three Realms was extremely limited.
It must be known that among the saints in the Three Realms, other than Xiao Tian, who was not supported by a huge force?
Even Mother Nuwa, who had always stayed within the imperial palace of the Snail Palace and refused to pay attention to the affairs of the outside world, had an enormous monster behind her back!
Sand Monk's thoughts were similar to Zhu Bajie's. However, as the spy sent by Jade Emperor, Sand Monk didn't care too much about Xuan Zang's decision.
His mission was to find a way to destroy the Dharma East Crossing this time. Even if he couldn't stop it, it would take more effort for the Buddhist Sect. Therefore, Xuan Zang rejecting Tathagata's invitation was actually a good thing for him.
If Zhu Bajie and Sand Monk's thoughts were only a little regretful, then at this moment, the thoughts of Tathagata and the others had already flown away.
A look of confusion flashed across Guan Shiyin's eyes as she looked at Xuan Zang. She didn't understand how Xuan Zang was able to resist the temptation.
One must know that even if Zen heart was as firm as her, when facing the position of buddhist leader, she would still be unable to resist the impulse.
Guan Shiyin believed that if Tathagata really did give up the throne and let her be the leader of the Buddhist Sangha, she would definitely not agree without the slightest hesitation!
