Randeng saw this scene and suddenly felt an endless chill growing and spreading within the pit of his heart.
He clenched his teeth, "Is Shakya Muni truly prepared to commit such an egregious transgression against our Buddhism, ready to honor Great Master Lianhuasheng's request?"
What 'Dirulai', what enlightenment eons ago—absurd!
Avalokitesvara didn't directly answer, but instead, his tone shifted, "As far as I know, Fighting Buddha and Maitreya Buddha both hold high regard for Prince Fenyang. Their temperaments, uncle-teacher, are also known to you.
"Dari Tathagata discussed this matter with me a few days ago, saying that Prince Fenyang is truly a remarkable person. He even smiled and pointed toward the southwest, saying that in the lands of Tiannan and northwest, it is unknown how many Buddhas will realize their fruition."
Randeng was rendered speechless; he understood the implication in Avalokitesvara's words.
The situation being such, Shakya Muni had no choice but to agree.
