Serving the Buddha

When Ning Huang was ordered to serve that bald monk, Liao Jin, he was still a rookie who had transmigrated into a corpse. Liao Jin, meanwhile, was already a renowned Buddhist cultivator. They ate, lived, and slept together for decades. Who could have guessed Ning Huang would find the monk's face more and more captivating? He wanted to break the monk's vow of passionlessness and shatter his diamond body. He wanted to stain that snowy purity atop the pine with a touch of worldly dust. Unfortunately, before they could settle their romantic entanglement, the monk completed his virtuous deeds and was welcomed into the heavens by the gods and Buddhas. He became the Holy Buddha worshipped by all at the Great Thunderclap Temple. Ning Huang, meanwhile, slaughtered his way through the world and was welcomed back to the infernal realms by demons and monsters, becoming an evil fiend whom the Buddhist and Daoist sects vowed to eliminate at all costs. During a great battle, Ning Huang fell into a trap laid by the gods and Buddhas. Before the gathered deities, he asked through a mouthful of blood, "Monk, was I ever even a little bit different from anyone else in your heart?" Liao Jin: "Could you be more specific?" Ning Huang stared straight at him. "Did you ever love me?" The monk's eyes, calm as a dried-up well, rested on him for a long time. He gave no answer. "So, could you bring yourself to kill me?" Ning Huang moved closer and pressed on. With all the Buddhas watching, Liao Jin gazed at Ning Huang's face again and again. "You can't bring yourself to do it." Ning Huang smiled with bewitching allure, his voice barely a breath. "How could you bring yourself to do it?" . "Hey, hey, hey! Did that fiend just escape?!" "What??? The joint operation of the Immortals and Buddhas, with everyone out in force, actually failed? This is absurd!" All the deities turned in unison to Liao Jin, who had said nothing.
