#2350 - Remove the power of ten thousand Buddhas

In reality, Chu Hao was waiting for the arrival of the Tathagata Buddha. Seeing the Tathagata Buddha being so humble and taking the initiative to negotiate, Chu Hao naturally wouldn't refuse.

"Negotiation is certainly possible, but Tathagata Buddha, what you've done is far from righteous.

You actually had Guanyin transform into the daughter of Kou Shanren, devising such a conspiracy, and even trapping this Prison God in Diling County for days.

Tell me, how should you compensate me for my losses? If the outcome isn't satisfactory, then there's no need for negotiation."

Chu Hao feigned anger as he spoke to the Tathagata Buddha.

"Chu Hao, I am very sincere this time. As long as you agree to release the people of my Western Paradise, I can agree to any condition you propose."

The Tathagata Buddha seemed very sincere this time, which made Chu Hao a little suspicious.

"Could there be some conspiracy involved?"

Although he thought so, since the Tathagata Buddha had already said so, Chu Hao wouldn't be Chu Hao if he didn't take the opportunity to bleed him dry.

"My conditions are very simple. First, you must erase this Ten Thousand Buddhas' Vow Power, leaving not a trace behind."

Chu Hao put forward the first condition to the Tathagata Buddha.

This Ten Thousand Buddhas' Vow Power was created by Western Paradise at the cost of its very foundation. For the Tathagata Buddha, destroying it would undoubtedly be like losing half his life.

"This… I agree."

The Tathagata Buddha gritted his teeth and still agreed to Chu Hao.

After saying that, he immediately began to chant incantations.

As the Tathagata Buddha chanted incantations, cracking sounds came from all around Diling County, and golden rays of light flickered out.

After appearing, they gradually dissipated in the air. These golden lights were naturally the Ten Thousand Buddhas' Vow Power gathering and taking shape.

As the golden lights dissipated one after another, the Sanskrit Buddhist chants that originally echoed above Diling County also disappeared.

The power of suppression in Diling County was also rapidly weakening, slowly disappearing without a trace.

Chu Hao naturally felt that the Ten Thousand Buddhas' Vow Power had been removed by the Tathagata Buddha, and along with it, the special rules of Diling County were also removed.

"Very good, it seems the Buddha is still very sincere."

Looking at the Tathagata Buddha's unsightly expression after removing the Ten Thousand Buddhas' Vow Power, Chu Hao immediately smiled.

"Second, you must promise in person that Diling County will no longer be under the jurisdiction of your Western Paradise, and the people of Western Paradise must not come to Diling County to cause trouble again."

Chu Hao put forward the second condition, which was essentially asking the Tathagata Buddha to cede territory from Western Paradise.

"Alright, I agree."

The Tathagata Buddha didn't hesitate at all and directly nodded in agreement.

This made Chu Hao even more puzzled, but he couldn't figure out what conspiracy the Tathagata Buddha had in mind.

"Third, your Western Paradise must provide 100,000 magical treasures and one million elixirs to compensate me for my losses."

Chu Hao continued to state his conditions to the Tathagata Buddha.

"Chu Hao, the foundation of my Western Paradise has almost been taken away by you. Where am I going to get so many magical treasures and elixirs?

We, the people of Western Paradise, are almost so poor that we have to beg for alms. You can't be such a demanding extortionist!"

However, in order to redeem Guanyin and Dipankara Buddha, he would accept the IOU. Otherwise, Western Paradise would probably not be able to withstand the attack of the Anti-Western Paradise Alliance.

After receiving the magical treasures, elixirs, and IOU from the Tathagata Buddha, Chu Hao waved to his subordinates.

"Release them!"

As Chu Hao's order was issued, Dipankara Buddha and the others were released from the Huaguang Brothel.

"Buddha, that Chu Hao is being too unreasonable."

"We can't just let it go like this."

"We are irreconcilable with Chu Hao."

Guanyin and Dipankara Buddha had suffered a lot while being imprisoned by Chu Hao in the Huaguang Brothel.

Tens of thousands of people crammed into such a dilapidated temple, one can imagine how uncomfortable it would be.

"Silence! Return to Western Paradise first, otherwise the Demon Clan and the Demon Race will attack Western Paradise."

The Tathagata Buddha gave Guanyin and Dipankara Buddha a look, signaling them to shut up.

The Tathagata Buddha left with Guanyin and Dipankara Buddha, while Chu Hao discussed with Tang Sanzang and the others how to reorganize Diling County.

Diling County was a special place created by Western Paradise, and the people here were all incomplete souls, ghosts.

"The first step is naturally to make the people of Diling County have complete souls and become normal mortals."

"Only in this way can Diling County fully return to normal and restore order."

"However, we must also explain clearly to the people of Diling County."

Tang Sanzang and the others suggested to Chu Hao.

This was naturally what Chu Hao wanted to do as well. Now that the Ten Thousand Buddhas' Vow Power in Diling County was gone, the next goal was naturally to restore the people to normal.

"Go and notify the people of Diling County to gather at the plaza. I want to return their souls to them."

The souls of the people of Diling County were now in Chu Hao's hands.

Tang Sanzang and the others immediately split up and began to summon all the people to gather at the plaza.

On the way back to Western Paradise, the Tathagata Buddha, Guanyin, and the others were naturally filled with resentment.

"Buddha, are we just going to let that Chu Hao get away with it so easily?"

"In this way, we have suffered a great loss in Diling County."

"If this matter spreads, Western Paradise will lose a lot of face."

Guanyin and the others said to the Tathagata Buddha. They hated Chu Hao, but they didn't have the strength to deal with him, so they naturally wanted to instigate the Tathagata Buddha to take action.

"Chu Hao, he thinks he has profited, but he doesn't know that this Venerable One still has a backup plan."

"After we abandon Diling County, Chu Hao will inevitably return the souls of those people to them. By then, Chu Hao will know how powerful this Venerable One's backup plan is.

It will definitely catch Chu Hao off guard, and he may even die here!"

The Tathagata Buddha laughed loudly, then whispered something to Guanyin and the others.

"The Buddha is truly wise."

"The Buddha is still one step ahead and has such a backup plan."

"That Chu Hao is going to suffer a big loss this time."

After hearing what the Tathagata Buddha said, Guanyin, Dipankara Buddha, and the others also smiled triumphantly.

"Let's go back and protect Western Paradise first. As for Diling County, let's just wait and see Chu Hao's misfortune."

Even so, the Tathagata Buddha felt extremely uncomfortable when he thought about abandoning Diling County, giving up the Ten Thousand Buddhas' Vow Power, and being swindled out of a large number of magical treasures and elixirs by Chu Hao.

"Chu Hao, you wait for me. When you beg me, I will definitely take revenge tenfold!"

The Tathagata Buddha shouted in vent, as if making a vow.
