Those henchmen were not easy to handle either.
To kill by himself, he would probably have to meticulously prepare, set an ambush, and take down an entire First Grade Large Formation to slay Fire Buddha, who was at the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
But where could he find a First Grade Large Formation to dismantle?
Besides, with such a huge cost to dismantle a First Grade Large Formation, killing Fire Buddha seemed like a wasteful extravagance.
And Fire Buddha was cautious. Even with a trap set, it was uncertain if he would fall into it.
So, it had to be done by someone else...
He would assist from the side, giving a little help.
Then, who could be relied upon?
Mo Hua stroked his chin, thinking...
Senior Sister Murong and Senior Brother Feng, they definitely wouldn't do.
His Senior Brothers and Sisters were only at the Middle Stage of Foundation Building, and although they were among the chosen of the Eight Great Gates, they were still far from comparing to Fire Buddha who was at the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment and capable of mass murder.
Whether they could win or not was another issue.
If they failed, they might even lose their lives.
Senior Sister Murong cared for him and didn't want him to take risks.
Similarly, he did not want his Senior Brothers and Sisters, who had helped him a great deal, to face such deadly peril.
They didn't have as many life-saving methods as he did.
Who else was there?
After much thought, Mo Hua could only think of one person who might be just adequate for helping dispose of Fire Buddha.
That was Uncle Gu, Gu Changhuai...
Golden Core Realm cultivation, Dao Court Canon Supervisor.
The identity fit and the cultivation was sufficient.
Moreover, Uncle Gu seemed to have always been intent on bringing Fire Buddha to justice.
But the problem lay right there; as a member of the Daoist Court, even if he captured Fire Buddha and extracted the Secret Manual of the Meteor Fire Skill, publicly or privately, it was highly unlikely he would give it to Mo Hua.
Putting himself in the shoes of "Uncle Gu," Mo Hua wouldn't hand over the Meteor Fire Skill to an unknown "Mo Hua" either.
In Uncle Gu's eyes, he was already a "dangerous" element.
It was impossible for him to let a small cultivator already deemed "dangerous" to learn an even more "dangerous" Forbidden Technique...
But after much contemplation, Mo Hua had no other options.
Uncle Gu was the only choice.
