How Could the Great God's Business Be Called Stealing? (cont.)

Bai Ze added insult to injury, leaving Ji Meng speechless.

Even Ji Meng is Innate Divine Beast that has cultivated for countless eons, can't he see what Di Jun wants to hear?

"Ji Meng, you're overthinking it."

Di Jun, the Heavenly Emperor, also spoke up appropriately, and then added:

"The East Prince Gong is not that important to the Dao Ancestor, and the Dao Ancestor said that our demon race was born in accordance with the Great Dao's Destiny."

"The East Prince Gong has repeatedly provoked our demon race; his crime deserves death!"

"If the other party is willing to submit to my demon race, considering that he is the Head of Male Immortals appointed by the Dao Ancestor, we can spare his life."

Although Di Jun also wanted to kill East Prince Gong, he knew he had to give Dao Ancestor Hongjun some face and give East Prince Gong a way out.

Of course, if the East Prince Gong doesn't want this way out, then he shouldn't blame the demon race for being ruthless.

"The Heavenly Emperor is wise!"

This time, none of the Ten Great Demon Sages objected to Di Jun's proposal.

"As for Kunpeng, we'll deal with him after we've dealt with the East Prince Gong!"

Di Jun wasn't in a hurry to deal with Kunpeng, mainly because the Northern Darkness Demon Clan was in the Northern Darkness Sea, which was quite far from the Heavenly Court. After all, one has to take things one step at a time.

"Bai Ze, speak freely!"

Di Jun suddenly noticed Bai Ze's hesitant expression and gestured for him to speak directly.

Among the Ten Great Demon Sages, Di Jun and Bai Ze had the best relationship.

Because Eastern Emperor Taiyi spends most of his time cultivating and doesn't concern himself with the affairs of the demon race.

Bai Ze often helped Di Jun with his worries, so it can be said that Bai Ze was already Di Jun's right-hand man.

"Heavenly Emperor, the Dao Ancestor once said that someone from the Witch Clan would attain enlightenment in the future, but my Demon Clan has some grudges with the Three Pure Ones."

"We failed to snatch that Hongmeng Purple Qi Hong Yun ~"

Before Bai Ze could finish speaking, Di Jun was interrupted because Bai Ze's words were detrimental to the morale of the army.

"Bai Ze, what exactly are you trying to say?"

Di Jun was warning Bai Ze not to say things he shouldn't, because some things, once spoken, would be detrimental to the demon race.

Di Jun feared that some of the Ten Great Demon Sages might develop a sense of dread and consider leaving the demon race, which was not something he wanted to see.

"Heavenly Emperor, my demon race needs a Heavenly Dao Saint to oversee things, in case someone from the Three Pure Ones or the Witch Clan attains enlightenment and then targets my demon race."

Under Di Jun's warning, Bai Ze didn't beat around the bush this time and went straight to the point.

As a wise man among the demon race, Bai Ze was all Taiqing the current situation of the demon race.

Among the Ten Great Demon Sages, some have already begun to feel fear and regret joining the demon race.

If a stabilizing force isn't provided for the demon race, sooner or later one of the Ten Great Demon Sages will succumb to the pressure and lead his forces to withdraw from the demon race.

Once someone looks up, the others will follow suit, and it would be good if five of the Ten Great Demon Sages were left.

Di Jun understood Bai Ze's meaning and asked Bai Ze in return:

"Bai Ze, you know what Zhunti, Jieyin two future Heavenly Dao Saint, did before."

"And are you sure you mean for them to join the demon race and take charge of my Heavenly Court? Or for my Heavenly Court to be merged into the Western Primordial Era?"

Di Jun believed that the "Sea-Stabilizing Needle" that Bai Ze was looking for was Zhunti and Jieyin.

After all, the demon race doesn't have any future Heavenly Dao Saint with whom they have any Jieyin; currently, they only have Zhunti and Jieyin.

However, Di Jun Zhunti Jieyin. He was afraid that inviting Zhunti Jieyin the Heavenly Court would be like raising a tiger to cause trouble.

At that time, the magic needle that stabilizes the sea will transform into a hungry tiger, devouring the entire demon race of the Heavenly Court.

Seeing that Di Jun had guessed wrong, Bai Ze quickly corrected him:

"Heavenly Emperor, I'm referring to Nuwa of Phoenix Perch Mountain!"

Although Zhunti and Jieyin are future Heavenly Dao Saint, Bai Ze is not confident in inviting them to the Heavenly Court.

To put it bluntly, if Zhunti joined the demon Jieyin, Bai Ze would quit without hesitation, because he didn't want to be Zhunti and Jieyin.

Nuwa of Phoenix Perch Mountain!!!

"Bai Ze, your joke isn't funny at all!"

Di Jun believed that Bai Ze must have been hit on the head by one of the Twelve Ancestor Witches during their Ancestral Witch last time, causing brain damage.

You must know that the demon race and Nuwa are already enemies, so how could Nuwa possibly join the demon race?

Ji Meng saw an opportunity and immediately gave winks to his close associates Shang Yang, Qin Yuan, and Fei Lian.

"Bai Ze, have you forgotten who stole your dojo?"

"Bai Ze, don't forget the grudges between Bai Chen and the Heavenly Emperor and the Eastern Emperor. Bai Chen has insulted the Heavenly Emperor and the Eastern Emperor time and time again."

Moreover, the feud between the Three Pure Ones and the Heavenly Emperor and the Eastern Emperor was also instigated by Bai Chen."

"Bai Ze, Bai Chen are Nuwa's pet Pet Beast. Do you think Nuwa will join the Heavenly Court?"

"..."

The four Demon Saint, including Ji Meng, already had some grievances Bai Ze Bai Ze, and now that they had the opportunity, they naturally wanted to make things difficult for him.

It was Bai Ze who tricked them back then, colluding with Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi to force them to join the demon race.

Ji Meng's words, spoken by the four great Demon Saint, resonated deeply with Di Jun.

"Heavenly Emperor, the one with whom we have a grudge is Bai Chen, not Nuwa."

Bai Ze corrected Ji Meng and the others, pointing out that there was no direct conflict between the demon race and Nuwa.

Some conflicts are only indirect, and all of these indirect conflicts were caused by Bai Chen, this Primordial World thief.

When Bai Ze said that, Di Jun felt that it made some sense, but the problem was that an indirect contradiction was also a contradiction, wasn't it?

Will Nuwa join the demon race?

Even if Nuwa wanted to join the demon race, who could guarantee that that damned beast Bai Chen wouldn't cause trouble?

Given the grudge between his brother and that bastard Bai Chen, the other party would definitely cause trouble.

Bai Ze saw through Di Jun's thoughts and knew that the other party had wavered, but still had some reservations.

Therefore, Bai Ze decided to reassure Di Jun:

"Your Heavenly Emperor, I have some connections with Nuwa's elder brother, Fellow Daoist Fuxi. We can persuade Nuwa to join the Heavenly Court through Fellow Daoist Fuxi."

Bai Ze had a long-standing relationship with Fuxi.

Therefore, Bai Ze planned to start with Fuxi. Bai Ze believed that through Fuxi, he had at least a 50% chance of getting Nuwa to join the demon race.

"Heavenly Emperor, in addition to this, we can also offer him great rewards."

For example, making Nuwa and Fuxi the rulers of the demon race, and sharing the Merit and Fortune of the Heavenly Court with Nuwa and Fuxi."

Bai Ze estimated that with this condition added, Nuwa joining the demon race was basically a done deal.

Of course, this is on the premise that Bai Chen doesn't cause trouble.

"This~"

When Di Jun heard that the Merit and Fortune of the demon race were to be shared with Nuwa, he was immediately displeased.

You must know that Merit and Fortune are invaluable!

"Heavenly Emperor, even though my temple was stolen by Bai Chen, I can temporarily set aside my grudges."

"I implore the Heavenly Emperor to prioritize the greater good for the sake of the demon race!"

Bai Ze was speechless. What kind of situation is this now? Di Jun is still focused on these petty gains.

To put it bluntly, if we don't win over Nuwa now, Nuwa will become an enemy of the demon race.

At that time, once the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, or someone from the Witch Clan attains enlightenment, the very existence of the Demon Clan will be in question.

According to the information I currently have, Nuwa should be the only one among the Six Saints of the Heavenly Dao who has severed her three corpses and reached the peak of the Quasi-Saint.

Given the current situation, Nuwa is very likely to be the first of the Six Saints of the Heavenly Dao to attain sainthood.

The demon race might as well give up some benefits now and win over Nuwa.

This will reduce the number of enemies, and give the demon race an additional pillar of strength.

"Bai Ze, if you can do all this, what does it matter if I, Di Jun, the Heavenly Emperor, sacrifice a little?"

After Bai Ze's reminder, Di Jun finally nodded in agreement.

At the same time, he also had some plans in mind.

First, use Nuwa to stabilize the situation of the demon race. After he and his younger brother Taiyi attain enlightenment, they will then kick Nuwa out of the demon race.

Nuwa: Di Jun, who's scheming against whom is still unknown.

Who knows, it might be you two brothers Di Jun, who get kicked out later!

These insignificant ants, defying destiny, dare to plot against the sages—they are truly courting death!

Ji Meng and the others heard that Nuwa was to be invited to join the demon race, they looked at each other in surprise, and then said in unison:

"Heavenly Emperor, if Nuwa joins the demon race, what if our Daoist temple is stolen?"

"At that time, we beg the Heavenly Emperor to uphold justice for us and make Bai Ze compensate us!"

Ji Meng and the others knew without a doubt that if Nuwa joined the demon race...

Bai Chen, the Primordial World Pet Beast was raised by Nuwa, will also join the demon race.

This is a classic case of letting a thief into a house; the probability of the temple, spiritual treasures, and valuables being stolen is far too high.

They need a promise regarding this matter; otherwise, what if the temple is robbed one day?

Therefore, they want Bai Ze, the one who made the proposal, to bear all the losses.

"My fellow Demon Saint, although Bai Ze's suggestion may displease you, and even I am somewhat dissatisfied with it."
