Chapter 1492 Master and Disciple
After hearing Liu Nian's words, several saints fell into deep thought. Soon Yuanshi Tianzun asked Liu Xu to reflect Yun Zhongzi. Yuanshi Tianzun had many disciples, and there were more than a dozen second-generation disciples. Among them, the Twelve Golden Immortals were the most famous.

Yun Zhongzi was probably the weakest among all the disciples. However, Yuanshi Tianzun entrusted his general to Yun Zhongzi. This shows that among Yuanshi Tianzun's many disciples, there were too many unreliable guys.

What Zhunti Taoist hesitated for a long time and then asked Liu Xu, "I want to talk to Wukong, is that okay?"

"Wukong?" Liu Xu was stunned. He didn't expect that the Taoist Zhunti would ask for a meeting with Sun Wukong. He actually planned to hand over the important task of preaching his own doctrine to Sun Wukong... Let's not talk about whether Sun Wukong has the ability to be a cult leader, the key is why he thinks Sun Wukong will listen to him?
However, Liu Xu quickly reacted and said thoughtfully, "Could it be that the senior is really Bodhi Patriarch?"

"My friend, you have guessed it!" Zhunti sighed and said, "I am indeed Patriarch Bodhi, and I can be regarded as the first master of that monkey."

"I have seen it in some research materials of Journey to the West scholars a long time ago. I think Bodhi Patriarch is Zhunti Taoist. After all, Bodhi itself is a sacred object of Western religion, and this name has a great relationship with Western religion. And Bodhi Patriarch's strength is amazing, and his origin is so mysterious, so many people think that Bodhi Patriarch is your good corpse. Is this true?"

"The wisdom he gained later is admirable!" Zhunti Taoist nodded and said, "But Patriarch Bodhi is not a kind corpse. Although we do have the method of beheading the three corpses during our practice, it is only for our convenience and concentration in understanding the great Dao. We will never deliberately release another self to act. Otherwise, if the clone loses control, the loss will be far more terrible than we can imagine."

"I was the one who taught this monkey at that time. We have been planning the Great Tribulation of the Journey to the West for a long time, and it is also our last desperate struggle against the Doomsday. In fact, we don't want to give up the prehistoric world, so we think that if we can create another master of the prehistoric world, then the prehistoric world will not have to be abandoned, and the Doomsday can naturally be avoided."

"No way... Don't tell me you are planning to make that monkey the master of the prehistoric world!" Liu Xu said in surprise.

"Of course this is impossible. Although the monkey is kind-hearted, he is a good disciple. Expecting him to be the master of the world means that he can't wait for the world to be destroyed sooner. We actually want the six saints to have a complete heart-to-heart talk, put aside all conflicts of interest, resolve all past grievances and causes and effects, and finally hand over the six people's understanding of the law to one person, so as to help this person achieve the way of heaven!"

"So who did you choose to help in the end?"

"Who else could it be? Of course it's the eldest brother. After all, among the six of us, the one with the least karma and the most popular people is the only one who can possibly bring everyone together, and that's the eldest brother."

"Only by helping our eldest brother one step further can we not worry about being liquidated by him in the future. However, this would have been a huge loss for the two of us, and we completely gave up hope of making further progress. So the Three Pure Ones took the initiative to propose a journey to the West, allowing us to spread Western religion to the East, and giving us twice as much land to freely preach as compensation for our concession. This is how the Journey to the West disaster happened."

"And that monkey is a person born to face calamity, so naturally he has to be taught by us brothers. But my brother is not good at teaching disciples, and the only few he taught turned out to be traitors in the end. My brother was disheartened and had no intention of accepting any more disciples, so naturally I had to teach that monkey."

"At first I didn't care much about it. I was thinking of giving him thirty-six transformations as agreed with my senior brother. But I didn't expect that he would choose seventy-two transformations. Obviously, the sky is bigger than the earth, but he insisted on choosing the one that sounded more. He is really a brainless monkey!" When Zhunti said this, his face was full of smiles. Liu Xu also understood why Zhunti chose a monkey to assign the task.

Zhunti really likes this disciple. "Actually, I was there when he ran back to Fangcun that day and called me Master over and over again. I have accepted many disciples in my life, but I have never felt so sad to hear the word Master!" Zhunti Taoist sighed and said, "Now that I think about it, he is probably the one who really cherishes me as a master. In his eyes, I am his master. In the eyes of other disciples, I am a saint. This is different!"

"I understand. I'll find Brother Monkey for you!" Liu Xu hesitated for a moment, then asked, "But does Brother Monkey know your identity?"

"This..." Zhunti Taoist suddenly hesitated again, "He may not know yet. After all, I haven't met him since then."

Seeing the look on Zhunti Taoist's face, Liu Xu wondered whether Zhunti Taoist might not dare to meet Sun Wukong, his true disciple, anymore.

"Or you can meet him in the appearance of Bodhi Patriarch?" Liu Xu suggested.

“Okay…” Zhunti Taoist nodded subconsciously, but then he thought of something and shook his head, “I can’t do that. He must have been upset with me for what happened back then. If I meet him again with my incarnation, he might be even angrier!”

"No!" Liu Xu shook his head and said, "Of course you should treat your closest relatives as if they were your closest relatives. Isn't this Bodhi Patriarch one of your appearances? Believe me, if you still act like Bodhi Patriarch, the effect will be better!"

"Really?" asked Zhunti Taoist like an innocent little boy who had never been in love. Only when he saw Liu Xu nod vigorously did he make up his mind.

Soon, the Zhunti Taoist transformed into the appearance of Bodhi Patriarch which had not changed for a long time... In fact, this appearance was the original appearance of the Zhunti Taoist, but the Zhunti Taoist was used to wearing a black Taoist robe and had no beard, looking like a middle-aged man.

Patriarch Bodhi was wearing a white linen Taoist robe, and he had a head full of white hair and a white beard, which made him look more like a Taoist priest. His face was essentially the same, with no other changes.

Liu Xu nodded, then waved his hand, and Sun Wukong was pulled directly into Liu Xu's Luoyang Palace.

"Why did the Great Celestial Venerable suddenly call me here? Why did he want me, Old Sun..." Before Monkey King could finish his words, he saw Patriarch Bodhi standing opposite Liu Xu. This monkey, who was always very strong, suddenly felt his knees weaken and he knelt directly in front of Patriarch Bodhi, crying out in a weeping voice, "Master!"
