Singular Sword to Multitude

Chapter 296 Jieyin and Zhunti's Schemes

After Jieyin and Zhunti returned to Mount Sumeru, Zhunti looked at Jieyin and asked with some worry:

"Senior Brother, will we be discovered by Taishang doing this? Will Taishang come to trouble us if he finds out?"

Jieyin looked at Zhunti's worried expression and shook his head with a smile:

"Junior Brother, what are you afraid of? So what if Taishang discovers it? We only gave that kid a cultivation technique. Even if Taishang finds out, he has nothing to say. Would Taishang personally come all the way to our Mount Sumeru!"

Zhunti was still a little worried: "Senior Brother, he is Taishang's disciple after all!"

Jieyin smiled upon hearing this: "Junior Brother, who told you he is Taishang's disciple? How come I don't know!"

Zhunti was stunned by this and became confused.

"Senior Brother, that kid has Taishang's aura on him. Moreover, judging from his cultivation method, it must be from Taishang. If he is not Taishang's disciple, how can he have Taishang's aura? How could Taishang create a cultivation method for him?"

Seeing that Zhunti still hadn't caught on, Jieyin couldn't help but shake his head and smile: "Junior Brother, we don't know anything. It's just that the kid has a karmic connection with the West, so we gifted him a secret cultivation method! Do you understand?"

Zhunti also caught on, his eyes gleaming as he looked at Jieyin: "Senior Brother means to play dumb? This way, even if Taishang finds out, we'll have an excuse!"

"Senior Brother is brilliant!"

Jieyin smiled slightly at Zhunti's praise: "Junior Brother, if our Western religion is to develop, our various lineages must not fall behind. As for the Joyful Zen Dharma, it depends on whether that kid falls into the trap. If he cultivates the Joyful Zen Dharma, he will surely become addicted to it and like it. If Taishang expels him from his sect, you and I will then bring him into our Western religion, and the Joyful Zen sect will have hope for development!"

Zhunti nodded. What Jieyin said was right. The Joyful Zen Dharma was a side branch of the Western religion they founded. Once one cultivates it, it is very difficult to resist the temptation of pleasure.

"Senior Brother, that kid is Taishang's disciple after all. It would be bad if Taishang found out. We still need to find a way to choose another disciple!"

Jieyin nodded upon hearing this, then shook his head: "Junior Brother, the Joyful Zen Dharma is not something anyone can cultivate. Only those with karmic connections can."

"We can't find a suitable candidate for the time being. Let's have Yaowang and Dizang go down the mountain to gather three thousand novices!"

Zhunti sighed upon hearing this, then suddenly remembered Chang'er, whom they had seen when they went to Kunlun: "Senior Brother, do you remember that time we went to Kunlun Mountain and saw a long-eared person among the disciples of the Three Pure Ones?"

Jieyin also remembered that there was indeed such a person, and his name seemed to be Chang'er. He was a disciple under Tongtian and seemed to have a karmic connection with them. Thinking back now, Chang'er would be perfect for this Joyful Zen Dharma! Sudan Novel Network

Jieyin narrowed his eyes and asked: "Junior Brother, do you mean to ferry Chang'er to our West and let him cultivate the... Joyful Zen Dharma?"

Zhunti nodded: "Senior Brother, I observe that Chang'er has a karmic connection with you and me. Why don't we find a way to recruit him? Our Western religion will then have another excellent disciple!"

Jieyin nodded upon hearing this, and after a moment of thought, he said: "Junior Brother, if we want to ferry him, we still need him to leave Kunlun himself, or have the Three Pure Ones expel him from the sect. Otherwise, if we ferry him in, the Three Pure Ones will likely not let this matter rest! We need to plan carefully!"
