Compensation

"Fellow Daoist Chu, please stop! Everything can be discussed, let's talk things out."

Seeing that the main character had finally appeared, Chu Feng stopped his attack, stood with his hands behind his back, and said, "Jieyin, you've come at just the right time."

"Today, you two from the Western Religion have trespassed into the palace of my Great Shang Dynasty and attempted to assassinate the Human Emperor's Consort. Shouldn't you give me, the Human Emperor, and the entire Human Race an explanation?"

The pain on Jieyin's face deepened, and he quickly explained, "Fellow Daoist, you've misunderstood, a huge misunderstanding."

My junior brother didn't really intend to assassinate the three imperial concubines; he merely wanted to remind His Majesty that the three demons were demons in human form and should not be trusted!

"Heh, what a helpful reminder!"

A cold laugh echoed from deep within the palace.

Di Xin, dressed in Black Bird King Robe, strode out of the imperial study with the air of a dragon and the gait of a tiger.

Behind him Human Dao Destiny Golden Dragon coiled and roared, exuding the supreme imperial aura of a supreme ruler, which countered this pressure!

"Your Western Religion's underhanded schemes and tricks have long been seen through by me and the Saint Father!"

"If you do not provide a satisfactory explanation today, do not blame me for mobilizing all the fortune of the Human Race and personally leading a large army to raze your Western Spirit Mountain to the ground."

Di Xin's words were a blatant threat.

Jieyin and Zhunti exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with helplessness.

If we don't bleed a lot today, things might really not end well.

Fortunately, it was just acting.

It's not a big problem.

Even if there are some losses, Hongjun will compensate himself.

Thinking of this, Jieyin sighed deeply and slowly spoke:

"This matter was indeed due to Buzhou foresight on our Western Religion, and to express our apology, we two are willing to offer two spiritual treasures as compensation."

Before Chu Feng could speak, Di Xin sneered.

"Two Innate Spiritual Treasure are enough to atone for your heinous crime of disrespecting the Human Emperor? Jieyin, Zhunti, do you take me for a three-year-old child, or do you think my Great Shang is so weak that you can manipulate me at will?"

Di Xin took a step forward, Human Dao Destiny Golden Dragon above his head let out a deafening roar. The imperial pressure became increasingly solid, making it hard for them to breathe.

"I don't need your so-called top secrets that can't be brought to the table! If you want things settled peacefully today, there are two options!"

Di Xin held up two fingers. "First, I will mobilize the destiny of Human Race to fight your Western Religion to the death! I want to see if your Western Religion can withstand the trampling of my Great Shang cavalry!"

Upon hearing this, Jieyin and Zhunti's faces immediately turned green.

Madman!

This Di Xin is simply a complete madman!

How dare they use their status as a former Human Emperor to threaten the orthodox lineage of sages!

And damn it, that threat actually worked!

Human Race is the protagonist of heaven and earth. If Di Xin disregards everything and uses the destiny of Human Race as a catalyst to launch a desperate attack on the Western Religion by inciting the Great Shang National Fortune.

Although their lives are not in danger, the foundation of the entire Western Religion may truly be destroyed!

The consequences are too great for them to bear!

Zhunti was so angry that he trembled all over and almost couldn't help but unleash his magic weapon to fight Di Xin, but Jieyin firmly by Jieyin.

Jieyin his frustration, Jieyin asked in a hoarse voice, "What is the second path?"

"The second path is very simple!"

A sly glint flashed in Di Xin's eyes. "Compensation! You disturbed my beloved concubine, destroyed my palace, and terrified my people! You must offer some form of compensation!"

"I don't want any more."

Di Xin counted on his fingers and said slowly, "You are responsible for repairing the destroyed palace and making it even more magnificent than before!"

My beloved concubine was terrified! Surely you should pay compensation for her emotional distress? I think your Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree and Merit Golden Lotus are quite good..."

"Don't even think about it!" Zhunti hearing this, Zhunti immediately flew into a rage. This was his treasure for attaining enlightenment, more important than his lifeblood!

"Cough cough,"

Di Xin coughed twice, glanced at the furious Zhunti, and continued, "I was just joking, why should the sage take it seriously?"

However, surely some Houtian Spiritual Treasure and elixirs are indispensable? Besides, since the people of Chaoge have been so frightened, your Western Religion must also show some sincerity.

Well then, let's compensate them with one million dan of spirit rice and ten million bolts of brocade and silk to appease the people.

The most important point!

I demand that you two swear an oath of faith.

From this day forward, during the Investiture of the Gods Calamity, your Western Religion are forbidden from interfering in the internal affairs of my Great Shang Dynasty. Any repercussions from Heaven will result in the instability of your Saint Position!

Di Xin's conditions were undeniably harsh!

It's like tearing off the face of Western Religion and rubbing it on the ground repeatedly!

We demand money, goods, and a swearing oath that you will never again come to the East to beg for money!

Zhunti was so angry that his face turned purple, and he cursed Di Xin and Chu Feng in his heart.

Greedy! Shameless!

But what could he do?

The situation was beyond our control, and we dared not make the slightest move.

Jieyin glanced at Chu Feng and sighed deeply.

"Enough, enough. As long as the green hills remain, there's no need to worry about running out of firewood."

Let us remember this humiliation for now, and settle accounts with them after the great eons have passed."

Zhunti gritted his teeth, forcing out a few words: "Fine! We agree to His Majesty's conditions!"

After saying that, a flash of light appeared, and a mountain of rare treasures, spirit rice, and silk appeared out of thin air in the square.

Immediately afterwards, Jieyin and Zhunti exchanged a glance, raised their hands at the same time, and with immense frustration, swore an oath with their Daoist hearts that they would never interfere in the internal affairs of the Great Shang Dynasty.

The oath was made, and the Heavenly Dao responded, sending down a profound and mysterious power of law that imprinted itself deep within the two individuals' primordial spirits.

Having done all this, the two sages didn't even bother with a polite word. They simply transformed into two streaks of light, tore through the void, and fled.

It felt as if a Primordial World beast was chasing us from behind.

Chaoge City, all the immortals, gods, and mortals who witnessed this scene were completely dumbfounded.

Watching the two sages disappear, Di Xin withdrew his imperial aura, turned around and bowed deeply to Chu Feng: "Thank you for your help, Saint Father!"

If it weren't for the Saint Father's presence, my Great Shang would be in grave danger today, and I would never have allowed those two shameless scoundrels to retreat in such a sorry state!

"Thank you so much for saving my life, senior!"

The three demons, Daji, Hu Ximei, and Noble Lady Wang, also hurriedly stepped forward and bowed gracefully to Chu Feng, their beautiful eyes filled with gratitude.

If Chu Feng hadn't appeared in time, they would have been annihilated long ago.

"No need for formalities."

Chu Feng waved his hand, and a gentle force lifted them up. "It was nothing. Now that you are the Human Emperor's Consort, protecting you is also protecting the honor of the Human Race."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the three demons, his tone becoming serious. "Although the Western Religion has sworn to retreat, we must not be complacent about their clandestine methods. The Investiture of the Gods Calamity is fraught with unpredictable changes. From now on, the three of you must stay by the Human Emperor's side day and night, diligently cultivate, and immediately send me a message if there are any unusual movements."

"We obey your Imperial Decree, Senior!" the three demons replied in unison.

Chu Feng nodded slightly, then moved and returned to the Purple Heavens Palace.

"Husband, what brings you here?"

When Hongjun saw Chu Feng arrive, he asked him in confusion.

Chu Feng instructed Hongjun to distribute resources to everyone to ensure the smooth progress of the Investiture of the Gods Calamity.

After the Investiture of the Gods Calamity ends, one's own magical power can be transformed into Primordial Chaos Power, thereby increasing one's strength and enabling one to cope with unknown dangers...

After hearing this, Hongjun nodded slightly and asked again, "I understand, my husband. Is there anything else you need me to do?"
