As soon as Empress Houtu said this, Brahma was immediately dumbfounded on the spot. He originally thought that even if he could not turn the Asura world into Buddhism legally, he would still have the right to preach here. With the prestige of the Blood River Ancestor, the Asura clan here would sooner or later become Buddhist disciples. At that time, even if it does not belong to Buddhism in name, it will still be equivalent to occupying it in substance.
But Empress Houtu was lucky enough to see what Brahma was thinking at a glance, and simply asked him to take away all the converted Asuras, thereby breaking Brahma's dream!
Da Brahma was naturally not willing to let it go, so he said again: "Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. They are all native creatures here, how can they move around at will?"
At this time, Song Zhong also knew that Queen Houtu was not good at words, so he quickly said, "Since they have converted to Buddhism, it means that they yearn for the Pure Land in their hearts, so they naturally want to leave with you!"
"Yes, that's right!" Empress Houtu didn't really know how to argue at first, but now after hearing what Song Zhong said, she naturally nodded her head in approval. The two people immediately exchanged looks, both feeling satisfied with this wonderful cooperation.
Brahma on the other side was so angry that his face turned green. He couldn't help but said angrily: "With so many Asuras and their families, how can they all be transported to the Pure Land? Do you know how far away the Pure Land is from here? ?”
Indeed, the Western Pure Land is hundreds of worlds away from here. It would have taken several months for Song Zhong to travel there. At that time, Song Zhong's strength was already quite high, and he could fly very fast by himself.
If it were the Asura tribe, with their children and their families, numbering in the thousands, then most of them would die if they were not attacked by demons and monsters along the way!
When Song Zhong heard this, he just smiled slightly and said: "Since they only have the Pure Land in their hearts, no matter how far the journey is, they will still reach it to show their piety. This is also a test!"
"You~" Da Brahma was immediately angered to death by Song Zhong's words. If he hadn't been concerned about the Houtu Empress beside him, he would have been unable to resist and kill Song Zhong.
However, Song Zhong didn't bother to pay attention to the angry him, and just continued: "Besides, so far, the Asura clan only has one guy who betrayed the immortal world. Although his prestige was not low before, now, since his belief has changed, Then his identity will also change!"
Upon hearing this, Da Brahma and the Blood River Ancestor were both shocked. Even Queen Houtu looked surprised as she didn't know what kind of medicine Song Zhong was selling in the gourd.
After all, this matter was related to the foundation of the Blood River Ancestor, so he couldn't help but jump out and asked: "Song Zhong, what do you mean?"
"What I mean is very simple!" Song Zhong said unhurriedly: "Since you have become a Buddha, it means you have jumped out of the Three Realms and are not in the Five Elements. Then the position of the leader of the Asura Clan is not suitable. You!"
…
As soon as Song Zhong said these words, everyone understood that he was forcing Patriarch Xuehe to abdicate his throne and give way to someone more worthy! As long as Patriarch Xuehe loses this identity, his prestige in the Asura clan will be reduced to the extreme. At that time, as long as the new clan leader prefers the fairy world and uses some tricks, it will not be difficult to defeat most of the Asura clan. All stay.
After all, the road to the Western Pure Land is too far, and the road is not safe. I'm afraid not many people are willing to leave their hometown and go so far away to seek refuge in Buddhism.
Of course, even if he loses his position as clan leader, the Blood River Ancestor's personal prestige is still there and he can still influence some people, but the number will definitely not be large.
If a new Asura King is really elected who is highly virtuous and has his heart set on the immortal world, then Brahma's plan to annex the Asura world will be completely over!
So when Brahma heard this, his brows suddenly furrowed and he was worried. Then Tu Niangniang's eyes lit up and she immediately shouted: "That's right. Since the ancestor of the Blood River has become a monk, he is no longer suitable to be the leader of the Asura clan. It's time to replace the Asura clan with a new one." The right clan leader!"
Of course Brahma couldn't just sit back and watch something like this happen. He hurriedly stopped him and said, "I'm afraid this is not good? You and I are both outsiders, how can we decide the internal affairs of Asura?"
"That's right!" Ancestor Xuehe also shouted loudly: "I don't want you to worry about the internal affairs of Asura!"
Before Empress Houtu could express her position, Song Zhong immediately pretended to be sad and indignant and shouted: "Oh, my father-in-law, why do you stop treating me as one of your own so quickly? If Xueer hears what you say, How sad that is!”
When the Blood River Ancestor heard this, he almost died of anger. But Queen Houtu burst out laughing, and then she laughed loudly and said: "Yes, Ancestor Blood River, this is your fault! A son-in-law is equal to a son-in-law, how can you treat him like a son-in-law?" Are you an outsider?"
When Da Brahma and the Blood River Ancestor heard this, they smiled bitterly and were speechless.
Indeed, if it were anyone else, Patriarch Xuehe could have used the excuse that outsiders were not allowed to interfere in the internal affairs of the Asura clan to send him away. Even if it were Empress Houtu, her words would be dishonest and her reputation would be dishonored at this time!
However, Song Zhong here now married the youngest daughter of the Blood River Ancestor and became the son-in-law of the Blood River Ancestor. As the son-in-law, he is indeed qualified to participate in the affairs of the Asura clan.
…
In desperation, Patriarch Xuehe had no choice but to argue: "Son-in-law doesn't count, and you didn't barge in the door!"
"Okay!" Song Zhong said immediately, "The son-in-law doesn't count, but the daughter can always count, right? I now officially announce that I will participate in this matter on behalf of my wife. Is that okay?"
"This~" Ancestor Xuehe was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said: "Xue'er can't do it either. The so-called water thrown by a married daughter, she is no longer a member of my family, so naturally it cannot be counted!"
"Haha, what you said is wrong!" Song Zhong immediately laughed and said: "Xue'er is not a member of your family, but she is still an asura, right? You can't just marry her. Are you saying that she is not from the Asura tribe?"
"I didn't say she wasn't Asura, I just said he wasn't from my family!" Ancestor Xuehe hurriedly corrected him.
"Haha, that's right!" Song Zhong immediately laughed and said: "The matter of establishing a new king is a major event for the entire Asura clan. As long as you are from the Asura clan, you can participate. This has nothing to do with whether you are a member of your family. Relationship, your family cannot represent the entire Asura!"
In fact, if the strength of Patriarch Xuehe's family is considered, his family can really represent Asura. But Song Zhong is now speaking uprightly on behalf of the entire Asura clan. The ancestor of Blood River himself is embarrassed to say that his family is the Asura clan, right
At this time, the ancestor of Blood River finally realized that he had been fooled, and he was so angry that he shouted: "Song Zhong, as long as I am still here, you don't need to worry about the affairs of the Asura clan!"
"But the problem is, you are no longer here?" Song Zhong shrugged and said, "Didn't you convert to Buddhism? After jumping out of the Three Realms, you should abandon all worldly things and serve the Buddha wholeheartedly! So the matter of Asura has already been It has nothing to do with you anymore!”
Ancestor Xuehe was so angry that he couldn't speak. Although he wanted to shout out his grievances and say that he was simply making a fuss with Buddhism and not sincerely seeking refuge, how could he dare to say that in front of the World-Destroying Great Brahma? I can only sulk on the side.
Seeing this, Brahma hurriedly said: "Song Zhong, don't just talk about him. Aren't you yourself the Happy Buddha of our Buddhism?"
"That's different. I was forced back then. Now I can announce in front of you that I am quitting and will no longer be that piece of shit Happy Buddha!" Song Zhong then smiled and said to the Blood River Ancestor: " I just don’t know if this person dares to say that? If he dares, I will admit that he is still the head of the Asura clan!"
"Yes, I can admit it!" Houtu Empress also followed.
When Patriarch Xuehe heard this, his whole face turned green. In front of the fierce Brahma of Destruction, if he dared to say this, wouldn't Great Brahma kill him in an instant
Therefore, in desperation, Patriarch Xuehe could only quickly say: "What nonsense are you talking about? Since I have converted to my Buddha, I will always be a disciple of Buddhism. How can I betray you?"
Everyone present could see that the Blood River Ancestor was just a temporary solution and had no sincerity at all. He was clearly telling lies. Therefore, Queen Tu and Song Zhong both showed contempt.
On the other hand, Brahma knew clearly that Patriarch Xuehe was talking nonsense, but he smiled and nodded in approval.
Song Zhong was too lazy to watch the show of these hypocritical guys, so he said: "Okay, I think, let's not argue here anymore, let the Asura tribe make their own decisions! Three days later, a conference will be held on Blood Lotus Island. Let all the tribal chiefs of the Asura tribe come. At that time, they will decide on the candidates for the tribe leaders and their respective fates! How about that?"
"I think it's okay!" Empress Houtu nodded and said: "If they are willing to convert to Buddhism and return to the Pure Land with you, then we will definitely not be in trouble! But if they have other choices, then please also ask the Great Brahma Saint Please don’t interfere!”
Da Brahma knew that his force was not as good as that of Houtu Empress, so there was no point in arguing any more. It would be better to start from other places. As long as the chiefs compromised under the pressure of the Blood River Ancestor, he would still win the game. So he nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it this way!"
