Tricky!
At this time, Buddha of the South Baosheng found the situation extremely tricky.
Like Bodhisattva Guanyin, Buddha of the South Baosheng also belonged to the lineage of Tathagata. Naturally, if Tathagata had some important tasks to entrust to him, Baosheng Buddha was duty-bound to comply.
The mission arranged by Tathagata this time was not difficult; in simple terms, it was just a stratagem to shift the blame onto someone else.
Maitreya Buddha had become the Coordinator of the Journey to the West. In addition, having heard from Bodhisattva Guanyin before, Xuanzang greatly admired Maitreya Buddha.
Therefore, Tathagata naturally had to be on guard against the possibility that Maitreya Buddha would successfully win over Xuanzang.
With the capabilities of Maitreya Buddha, now acting as the Coordinator of the Journey to the West for Scriptures and with his skills, subduing Xuanzang would not be difficult; thus, Tathagata naturally had to be wary of this.
