Seeing Jin Chanzi like this, Daoist Jie Yin was slightly displeased and frowned.
Maitreya, being observant, immediately understood Daoist Jie Yin's intention and began to scold.
"Jin Chanzi, why are you dawdling? Does Master Jie Yin intend to covet your treasures?"
Seeing Daoist Jie Yin's displeased expression, Maitreya quickly changed his tune.
"Moreover, it is an immense honor for you to be accepted into our Western sect. It is only right to offer a treasure or two. If you remain so uncooperative, do not blame your senior brother for being impolite!"
Joking aside, when he himself joined Daoist Jie Yin's tutelage, he had been fleeced of several treasures by this master. How could he let his junior brother refuse?
As long as everyone suffers a loss, then I will not be at a disadvantage!
Jin Chanzi looked at the silent Daoist Jie Yin, and then at his senior brother, who had been all smiles moments ago but was now speaking harshly. He could not help but sigh inwardly.
Was he not simply escaping one tiger's mouth only to fall into a wolf's den?
However, under the pressure of his master and senior brother's united front, Jin Chanzi knew resistance was futile. He quickly spoke.
"Master, it is not that I am unwilling to part with my treasures, but rather that I have none to give!"
Jin Chanzi lamented. Seeing the displeased expressions of Daoist Jie Yin and Maitreya, he quickly stopped sighing and continued.
"To be honest, Master, I had long since refined the cocoon into the Celestial Silk Kasaya. But recently, I had a conflict with someone, and in order to escape, I used my life-saving divine ability, barely managing to flee."
Jin Chanzi spoke of this matter with immense grief and indignation.
"Not only was my foundation damaged, but even the Celestial Silk Kasaya and the cicada shell were lost!"
Daoist Jie Yin and Maitreya exchanged glances and then looked at Jin Chanzi in unison.
Indeed, Jin Chanzi's aura was unstable, his qi and blood churning, appearing severely wounded.
"Detestable! Who is it that dares to be so disrespectful!"
Daoist Jie Yin was indignant. When he accepted Jin Chanzi as his disciple, the Celestial Silk Kasaya would naturally become his treasure. Yet, someone had preempted him and claimed it for themselves?
As a future Saint, how could he tolerate such an interception without seeking retribution?
"Yes, junior brother, do not fear. You have powerful backing now. We will seek justice for you!"
Maitreya also appeared to be voicing his indignation on Jin Chanzi's behalf, saying.
"Master, it's not that I doubt you, but I think it's best to let it go. Wait until you become a Saint!"
Jin Chanzi spoke. The stories of Xu Fang circulated in the Primordial Era, and he had some knowledge of the grievances between him and the two from the West.
If he remembered correctly, his master and the yet-unmet martial uncle had never fared well against Xu Fang, reportedly having been forced to roll away three times between them.
Jin Chanzi did not believe that the current Daoist Jie Yin could contend with Xu Fang, so he reminded him considerately to wait until Daoist Jie Yin became a Saint.
However, these words, upon reaching Daoist Jie Yin's ears, made him feel belittled.
"Jin Chanzi, what are you afraid of? I, your master, am a future Saint handpicked by Dao Ancestor Hongjun."
"This is not just your matter; it concerns the prestige of our West. Quickly tell me, which being dares to be so audacious? I will seek justice for you and restore our honor!"
Daoist Jie Yin declared with finality, appearing determined not to rest until he had sought justice for Jin Chanzi. Maitreya repeatedly seconded him.
"Yes, junior brother, do not panic. Master is here for everything!"
Jin Chanzi felt the sincerity of his master and senior brother. He pondered.
Perhaps he had misjudged. After all, his master was a future Saint handpicked by Dao Ancestor Hongjun. He should have already surpassed Xu Fang?
Thinking thus, Jin Chanzi rekindled his hope and responded.
"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Senior Brother!"
"The one who injured my foundation and stole my treasure is Xu Fang, the Dao Ancestor of Penglai. I implore Master to act on my behalf!"
Upon Jin Chanzi's declaration, he was quickly met with a strong endorsement from Daoist Jie Yin.
"Rest assured, it is merely Xu Fang, the master of Penglai Island. I will definitely avenge you, Jin Chanzi... Wait, you said Xu Fang!"
Daoist Jie Yin, mid-sentence, suddenly realized and exclaimed, looking at Jin Chanzi.
"It is Xu Fang, please Master for me..."
"Jin Chanzi, actually, I think losing one or two treasures is not a big deal. What's important is what lessons you can learn from it. Also, you will cultivate in the West from now on and should not go out."
Daoist Jie Yin interrupted Jin Chanzi, preventing him from continuing.
Joking aside, that great demon Xu Fang, he wished he could stay far away from him. Why would he seek trouble and run into him again?
He did not want to roll around in front of him again!
This, however, left Jin Chanzi bewildered. Where was the arrogance of looking down upon the heroes of the Primordial Era he had displayed moments ago?
"Master this..."
"Junior brother, in fact, justice is in the hearts of the people. It doesn't matter whether it's sought or not. You have just joined the West, and some things are best listened to from Master and Senior Brother."
Maitreya, seeing Daoist Jie Yin's reaction, took the opportunity to console him.
He had also heard about his master's grievances with the master of Penglai Island, Xu Fang. Seeing Daoist Jie Yin's demeanor at this moment, he naturally understood his master's intentions.
"..."
What else could Jin Chanzi say? Moments ago, he had appeared ready to seek justice for him, but now he was making all sorts of excuses. Had he not chickened out?
Jin Chanzi was momentarily at a loss for words. When he joined the West, he had hoped to one day rely on the power of the West to exact revenge on Xu Fang.
However, it now seemed his plans had gone awry. The West seemed to be nothing more than a cowardly alliance against Xu Fang!
[Measuring Heaven Ruler: Haha! That's hilarious. The way Jie Yin was just now, I really thought he was going to come charging in!]
[Ruyi Jingu Bang: What's there to fear? If he comes, he'll just roll away again!]
[Treasure Dropping Golden Coin: I have to say, everyone in the West is a talent. I really like the West, and I really like bullying them!]
[Jade Butterfly of Creation: By the way, has your Xu boy really given the West psychological trauma?]
[Enlightenment Tea Tree: Alas, don't kick a man when he's down. Everyone, that's enough.]
[Chaos Bell: But I just want to laugh. He's too much of a coward, yet he pretends to be fearless, haha!]
[Qing Ping Sword: Jie Yin of the West, cowardly online! Haha!]
[Merit Golden Lotus: That's enough, stop laughing. My live broadcast debut has been ruined by this fellow Jie Yin!]
[Seven Treasure Exquisite Pagoda: I told you long ago not to do it, and what about letting other spiritual treasures see it? The path of the West's revitalization, what kind of revitalization is this!]
[Jie Yin Linglong Flower Lamp: Exactly. Look at me, I'm right next to you. Do I have any interest in these matters? You're not enhancing the prestige of the West, you're just making the already precarious reputation of the West even worse!]
Merit Golden Lotus was also helpless. Originally, he had intended to livestream the West's path to greatness while Daoist Jie Yin was accepting disciples. But Daoist Jie Yin had ended up creating such embarrassing situations.
Now, not only Jin Chanzi, who had just joined, but even the spiritual treasures of the Primordial Era knew that their West was the Cowardly West Alliance.
How could he still make a living in the world of Primordial spiritual treasures? What would other lotuses think of him?
