Chapter 772: Chapter 224: Why Couldn’t the Great Tang Come Back? (Subscription Requested)_2

Cheng Guang merely looked at Dongfang Chiguo Tianwang, not yet saying anything to him, when Dongfang Chiguo Tianwang shrank back, lowering his head in fear.

He didn’t dare to look directly at Cheng Guang’s gaze.

It was only then that Cheng Guang realized that Dongfang Chiguo Tianwang was actually enveloped by an indescribable sense of weariness.

As if he had been severely drained by something.

Realizing this, Cheng Guang’s eyes turned to Guangyin Buddha and Cleansing Thought Buddha.

Without a doubt, this was the handiwork of Guangyin Buddha and Cleansing Thought Buddha.

Noticing Cheng Guang’s gaze, Guangyin Buddha knew what Cheng Guang was thinking and didn’t dare to deceive him. He quickly stepped forward to Cheng Guang, scratching his head with a smile, “Master, I thought this person could be of some use, so I had him help us diligently construct the Master’s domain.”

Cheng Guang nodded slightly, his tone unenthused, “You two must not be lazy.”

If Guangyin Buddha and Cleansing Thought Buddha had shifted all their duties onto Dongfang Chiguo Tianwang, Cheng Guang would be angry and would need to properly teach Guangyin Buddha and Cleansing Thought Buddha a lesson.

However, if Guangyin Buddha and Cleansing Thought Buddha were also working, and simply had Dongfang Chiguo Tianwang join them, there would be nothing to complain about.

Guangyin Buddha promptly nodded, “Master, how could we dare to be lazy? If it weren’t for the Master calling us here, we would still be diligently building.”

Guangyin Buddha spoke with a bit of a wronged tone.

Despite being a supremely powerful Guangyin Buddha, he now appeared almost afraid to draw breath in front of Cheng Guang.

Cleansing Thought Buddha also wore a submissive smile on his face, and before he was aware, his body bent slightly in front of Cheng Guang.

Cheng Guang didn’t care much and shook his head.

Guangyin Buddha paused and carefully probed, “May I inquire why the Master has called us here this time?”

Guangyin Buddha knew that Cheng Guang would not call them here without reason.

There must be some significant event.

Cheng Guang didn’t plan to keep it from Guangyin Buddha, and straightforwardly said, “It’s not because of anything else. When you came to the Great Zhou Capital, you must have seen that Tang Chang’an City around the outskirts, right?”

Guangyin Buddha nodded slightly, “I saw it. That Tang Chang’an City seems a bit similar to the Tang from my memory.”

Cheng Guang nodded in acknowledgment, replying, “It is indeed the Tang from your memory.”

Upon hearing Cheng Guang confirm their suspicions, both Guangyin Buddha and Cleansing Thought Buddha couldn’t help but open their mouths wide, their eyes filled with astonishment.

“Master, it can’t be… The Tang from our memory has already been obliterated for countless years, and that Tang Chang’an City has long been destroyed.”

“This Tang Chang’an City here, no matter how similar, couldn’t possibly be the same as that Tang Chang’an City…”

Cleansing Thought Buddha said with disbelief.

Guangyin Buddha looked at Cheng Guang blankly, his mouth twitching slightly. Though he was also reluctant to believe it, he didn’t outright express his inner doubts like Cleansing Thought Buddha did.

After all, in Guangyin Buddha’s view, Cheng Guang wouldn’t make baseless claims.

Since Cheng Guang had said so, it was highly likely that this Tang Chang’an City was the very one from their memory.

Although Guangyin Buddha didn’t understand how Chang’an City, destroyed so many years ago and completely vanished from the world, could reappear, it didn’t stop him from believing Cheng Guang.

While Guangyin Buddha and Cleansing Thought Buddha were shocked by Cheng Guang’s words, Dongfang Chiguo Tianwang frowned as well.

He had kept his head bowed the entire time, but upon hearing Cheng Guang mention that the city beyond the capital was Tang Chang’an City, he couldn’t help but raise his head.

After looking fearfully at Cheng Guang, he quickly lowered his gaze once more.

“It’s impossible, impossible.”

“How could it be that Tang…”

“That Tang is long dead…”

“Unless it’s like us?”

Dongfang Chiguo Tianwang hadn’t had any particular feelings about Tang, but because of an incident in the past, he had a deep impression of Tang, and of the Great Tang Emperor.

He had personally witnessed when Tang had been trampled by Demon Beasts.

When Jin Chanzi had sacrificed himself for the Buddha.

Even though Jin Chanzi had sacrificed himself, the people of Tang hadn’t been saved, nor had the territory of Tang been preserved.

The people hadn’t attained peace and prosperity.

Everything remained as usual.

Everything seemed like hell.

Thus, he couldn’t believe that the Tang of the past had returned.

However…

If the Celestial Gods of the Heavenly Court could return…

If the Western Buddhas could return…

How could Tang not return?

Thinking of this, Dongfang Chiguo Tianwang suddenly felt a little excited, even as a member of the Heavenly Court. Nevertheless, this did not prevent him from having a favorable impression of the Great Tang Emperor.

At the same time.

He also knew that the Great Tang Emperor, in a certain sense, was also a person of the Heavenly Court.

If the Great Tang Emperor truly still lived.

Could he then escape the predicament he found himself in?
