"I cannot possibly lose," Ji Changsheng asserted confidently. "Tongtian lacks planning, and while Buddha Tathagata does have plans, he has been severely misled by Tongtian. Furthermore, among the three great leaders of Buddhism, Maitreya is my senior brother, and I hold Dipankara's fatal weakness in my grasp. What can Buddha Tathagata compete with me using?"
"Right, He competes against me using the Jade Emperor."
At this, Ji Changsheng and Empress Nuwa both burst into laughter.
In the absence of the Saint's intervention, Buddha Tathagata's greatest ally indeed turned out to be the Jade Emperor.
This was truly a coincidence.
Thinking this, Empress Nuwa also completely set her mind at ease.
She increasingly felt that Ji Changsheng, this "filial son," was very reassuring as he wholeheartedly managed affairs for Empress Nuwa's Palace with almost no need for her help.
Not only did Saint Taiqing appreciate such a talented individual, but Empress Nuwa naturally did as well.
