"The Heavenly King of Eastern Dhrita?"

"Is he also the god of the eight heavenly beings?"

Xiaoqing, who appeared silently behind Pei Wende, turned into a human again and asked curiously.

As early as when Pei Wende launched the "Whispering Pure Land", Xiaoqing had already noticed what happened outside the Tutu Temple.

And when Mo Laosan and Pei Wende returned, Xiaoqing, who was almost connected with Pei Wende, also keenly captured the shock deep in the other party's heart.

"I have no idea……"

Not surprised at all by Xiao Qing's sudden voice, Pei Wende just shook his head in confusion.

Pei Wende really didn't know whether Mo Laosan was the legendary "Dongfang Zhiguo Celestial King". He didn't even know whether the "Dongfang Celestial State Celestial King" was a god in the Eight Deities System.

Because in the future Buddhist system, although the four heavenly kings and the eight heavenly beings are both the protectors of Buddhism, their popularity is vastly different.

The only thing Pei Wende knew clearly was that if the legend of the "Four Heavenly Kings" were to take shape and be successfully incorporated into the future Buddhist system, Mo Laosan's future life would be destined to be uneven.

Now that I think about it carefully, Pei Wende seems to have met many legendary figures along the way.

The Eight Heavenly Beings, the Eight Immortals of Shangdong, the Legend of White Snake, and today’s Four Heavenly Kings...

It seems that Pei Wende has been related to the more famous mythological figures in later generations, and is even witnessing their birth and formation.

【So, who will be next? 】

At the intersection between myths and legends and historical eras, Pei Wende suddenly began to look forward to the mythical characters he might encounter in the future.

The feeling of witnessing history, witnessing myths, and even actively participating in it is much more satisfying than defeating one or two powerful enemies.

"have no idea?"

Xiao Qing frowned slightly, obviously not satisfied with this answer.

However, after carefully feeling Pei Wende's inner thoughts, Xiaoqing decided not to continue to struggle with this issue.

Because no matter who the so-called "Dongfang Celestial King" is, it will not affect the subsequent conversation between Xiaoqing and Pei Wende.

"Forget it, let's leave here tomorrow morning?"

Long before Mo Laosan came to Tutu Temple, Pei Wende and Xiaoqing had decided to have a good night's rest and then leave Yongle Town early tomorrow morning.

In fact, if Pei Wende had not reversed the time of this land with the "whirlpool pure land", Xiaoqing would probably still be soaking in the wine jar now!

"Of course, but before I leave completely, I have to deal with some things first."

After listening to Pei Wende's words, Xiaoqing hesitated briefly, and finally couldn't help but complain.

"I knew that was the case. Is it because of that Mo Laosan this time?"

He couldn't help but touch his bald head. Pei Wende was not a fool, so he naturally heard the complaints in Xiao Qing's words.

The previous grudges were just to purify the Earth Temple, but now I have finally decided to leave here, but in the end, I got in trouble again.

Xiaoqing, who had never wanted Pei Wende to cause trouble, was naturally very dissatisfied with this.

According to Xiao Qing's thoughts, Pei Wende should not even come to Chang'an. The most important thing for him to do is to return to Weishan to accompany Zen Master Lingyou.

"Forget it, it doesn't count!"

Under Xiao Qing's very dissatisfied glare, Pei Wende had no choice but to spread his hands, gave up this Zen-like way of speaking, and continued to explain honestly.

"Actually, Mo Laosan and I just returned to seventeen years ago and met the ghost girl who might become my 'adoptive mother'..."

"And he also had a fight with Xuan Jue seventeen years ago. The resentment of Tutu Temple was left behind by him before his death..."

Pei Wende's two-sentence explanation immediately silenced Xiaoqing.

She had only noticed that something might have happened on Pei Wende's side.

But I never expected that Pei Wende would get into such big trouble again in such a short period of time.

Let's not talk about the situation of the ghost girl, just saying "go back seventeen years ago" is enough to sink Xiaoqing's rationality.

"Go back seventeen years ago?"

"Why do you have such magical powers?"

"Have you never considered the consequences of doing this?"

"For a stranger you don't even know, use a magical power that you can't even master?"

Xiao Qing did not doubt Pei Wende's words, she was just mocking Pei Wende's boldness.

After all, no matter which practice system you are in, time is the most mysterious and terrifying force.

Not to mention, Xiaoqing and Pei Wende have been together for such a long time, and have heard each other mention theories such as time paradox and causal loop, so they have a full understanding of the dangers of space-time relationships.

"That...I know it well."

After retorting without any confidence, Pei Wende did not continue to dwell on this issue, but decisively changed the subject.

"Anyway, I finally came to the conclusion that Yongle Town is not simple."

Without Xiaoqing interjecting at all, Pei Wende deliberately lowered his voice and spoke.

"Remember those evil spirits who were attracted by resentment?"

"I originally thought that those evil spirits were attracted by my action of overcoming my resentment, but in the end I did not dare to cause trouble to Yongle Town because I was afraid of your intimidation."

"But after learning about what happened seventeen years ago, many questions suddenly arose in my mind..."

After a slight pause, Pei Wende's eyes gradually revealed an aura of understanding and danger.

"Are those evil spirits really just attracted by chance?"

"Seventeen years ago, the battle between Gui Gushen and Xuan Jue was not discovered by anyone?"

"Gui Gu Shen is the Gandharva among the eight gods. Are we the only ones who have noticed His residual resentment in the past seventeen years?"

"The most important thing is, why is Mo Laosan coming to Tutu Temple? And not other people in Yongle Town?"

As Pei Wende asked questions one after another, various clues in his mind were gathered together, trying to piece together a complete truth.

"According to what you said, there are indeed a lot of doubts."

The topic was successfully changed by Pei Wende, and Xiaoqing also began to fall into deep thought.

Xiao Qing had simply expelled those evil spirits before, but had not really explored the origins of those evil spirits.

"There are many doubts, but there are also many clues."

With a slight smile on his lips, Pei Wende looked in the direction of Yongle Town and said.

"The two purposes of our trip to Chang'an are: one is to come to Chang'an to see my senior brother, and the other is to find Xuan Jue's reincarnation."

"If my guess is correct, I seem to have found a 'shortcut' to accomplish the second goal."

"Xuan Jue suddenly appeared in Yongle Town seventeen years ago and successfully killed Gui Gushen, which means that he is likely to have his own spies in Yongle Town..."
