Chapter 243: Mount Ling

He had thoroughly investigated the situation within the Buddhist Sect.

However, the words of the Divine Exorcist Great Sage did not elicit a joyful smile from the Jade Emperor. Facing an entity as enormous as the Buddhist Sect, even he was not assured of victory.

"Maitreya," the Jade Emperor murmured to himself.

This was not an easy character to deal with. Despite his perpetual smile and seemingly genial demeanor, he was actually very domineering.

As a representative of the radical faction within the Buddhist Sect, Maitreya had always wanted to establish an Earthly Buddhist Kingdom and spread the profound mysteries of the Buddhist Law to every corner of the world.

This also gave him a strong desire to expand. It could be said that in recent years, the expansion of the Buddhist Sect was backed by this Future Buddha.
