How Could the Great God's Business Be Called Stealing? (cont.)
"Little White, remember to tone it down a bit, don't go too far."
Nuwa saw through Bai Chen's wicked sense of humor, but still handed him the Sage's Imperial Decree, though she gave him a word of advice.
Nuwa was afraid that Bai Chen would go too far and push Di Jun to his limit.
"Nuwa, rest assured, this great goddess knows what she's doing."
After Bai Chen finished speaking, he took the divine Imperial Decree given to him by Nuwa and flew towards the Heavenly Court, fearing that Nuwa might go back on her word.
Nuwa watched Bai Chen's departing figure, then flicked a divine light from her fingertip, which entered Bai Chen's body.
Bai Chen, the cat involved, was completely unaware of anything unusual.
"Your Majesty, you left a protective barrier on Bai Chen, why didn't you inform him?"
Jin Ning, who hadn't spoken before, finally spoke up.
Although she couldn't see through Nuwa's divine power, she could roughly guess that it was a protective barrier used to protect Bai Chen.
"Jin Ning, what if Little White knew that I left a protective restriction on it?"
It dared to use the Heaven Measuring Ruler to steal Di Jun's Hetu Luoshu and Eastern Emperor Taiyi's Chaos Bell.
Nuwa said helplessly, "Others may not understand Bai Chen, but don't I, Nuwa, understand this cat?"
It was precisely because of this that Nuwa secretly used her divine powers to protect Bai Chen, without letting the cat know.
The South Heaven Gate of Heavenly Court...
A small white-furred beast arrived riding on auspicious clouds. Before the demon leader could even speak, the troublesome deputy leader blurted out a rebuke:
"This is the main gate of the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court— the South Heaven Gate. Untransformed ants, leave at once!"
In the Primordial World, not having taken human form was synonymous with low cultivation level.
That's why the deputy commander guarding the gate referred to the small beast before him as an ant.
The commander guarding the gate was so frightened by the deputy commander's words that his legs went weak!
Oh no!
After he came to his senses, he immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy from the white-furred beast not far away:
"Great God Bai Chen, it is that ignorant fool who has offended you."
"This little demon has not offended you; please spare my life!"
The gatekeeper was a descendant of a certain Demon Saint's clan, so he had heard more about Bai Chen than the deputy gatekeeper, and thus recognized Bai Chen's identity.
The deputy commander also sensed something was wrong, but Bai Chen didn't give him a chance at all.
"Even that damned three-legged crow, Di Jun, wouldn't dare call this great god an ant."
"You lowly gatekeeper ant dare to insult this great god? You're truly courting death!"
Bai Chen roared angrily, then opened his mouth wide and swallowed the deputy commander guarding the gate, chewing up his flesh and Primordial Spirit True Spirit!
Bai Chen glanced at the other guards of the South Heaven Gate and asked in a cold voice:
"Do any of you still dare to stop this great god? This great god can give you a chance to sacrifice yourselves for the demon race!"
It had only eaten one ant of Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, and it wasn't full yet, so it didn't mind eating a little more.
"Great God Bai Chen, we dare not!"
The gatekeeper commander quickly bowed and saluted, then reprimanded his remaining subordinates:
"A bunch of fools who don't know their own mortality! Quickly open the South Heaven Gate to clear the way for the Great God Bai Chen!"
The gatekeeper commander didn't want to end up like the deputy commander, becoming Bai Chen's cat food.
Under the command of the gatekeeper, the demon soldiers guarding the gate quickly opened the South Heaven Gate.
Although the South Heaven Gate has opened, Bai Chen no longer wants to go in.
"Go tell those three-legged crows to roll over to the South Heaven Gate and receive the Holy Emperor's Imperial Decree!"
Originally, this great deity was planning to go to the Lingxiao Treasure Hall to proclaim Nuwa's Imperial Decree, but this blind beast just ruined my mood.
If it were to enter the Heavenly Court like this, wouldn't that be beneath its dignity?
Since Di Jun is lax in managing his subordinates, making Great God Bai Chen) unhappy, he shouldn't blame Great God Bai Chen for making them suffer.
"This..."
The gatekeeper commander knew that the three-legged crow Bai Chen mentioned was Di Jun, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.
"Looks like you're tired of living!"
Just as Bai Chen's fiery temper was about to erupt, the Demon Saint Ji Meng arrived at the South Heaven Gate with his guards.
The Demon Saint Ji Meng was originally just inspecting the Heavenly Court, but he came here because he saw something unusual at the South Heaven Gate.
"I have met the Demon Saint Ji Meng!"
When the guards at the South Heaven Gate saw their savior arrive, they quickly bowed to the Demon Saint Ji Meng.
The Demon Saint Ji Meng ignored them and turned his gaze to Bai Chen, whose face was filled with anger, and asked:
"Fellow Daoist Bai Chen, why are you so angry?"
In fact, we can see a lot from the attitude of the Demon Saint Ji Meng towards Bai Chen.
"Ji Meng, why don't you ask them yourself?"
Bai Chen's anger had not subsided, and even though the Demon Saint Ji Meng's attitude was good, it was in no mood to pay much attention to him.
Ji Meng turned his gaze to the gatekeeper, signaling him to tell the truth.
"Chieftain, the situation is..."
The gatekeeper was a member of the clan of the Demon Saint Ji Meng. When questioned by Ji Meng, the clan leader, he truthfully reported the situation.
"Fellow Daoist Bai Chen Fellow Daoist Bai Chen has arrived bearing the Imperial Decree of the Sage. You have not only failed to greet him from afar but have also offended him. Your crime deserves death!"
After learning the whole story, the Demon Saint Ji Meng waved his sleeve, and several gusts of wind appeared.
The gale transformed into wind blades, slaying the gatekeeper commander and the other demon soldiers guarding the gate, obliterating their Primordial Spirit True Spirit and ensuring they would never be reborn.
Although the gatekeeper was a member of the Demon Saint Ji Meng's clan, he was of little value to Ji Meng.
After handling the matter, Ji Meng bowed and apologized to Bai Chen.
"Fellow Daoist Bai Chen, I apologize to you on behalf of the demon race."
Ji Meng knew the current situation; the demon race couldn't afford to offend Bai Chen.
Nuwa's attitude towards the demon race is currently unclear, but Bai Chen definitely has Nuwa's backing.
"Ji Meng, you've really gone all out!"
Bai Chen mocked Ji Meng's comment, feeling that Ji Meng was wasting his potential.
Why let those guards be annihilated? Wouldn't it be better to let the Great God Bai Chen devour them?
Ji Meng, as Innate Divine Beast, is so wasteful; he's Disgrace to Innates.
Unlike Great God Bai Chen and hardworking, he always licks every single grain of rice out of his bowl!
"They have offended Fellow Daoist Bai Chen; they deserve to die!"
Ji Meng didn't take Bai Chen's sarcasm seriously. How many Innate Great God who have survived from birth to the present day aren't formidable characters?
If he weren't a formidable character, he would probably have been killed by other Innate Great God long ago.
For Ji Meng, the lives of the demon soldiers guarding the gate were far less important than quelling Bai Chen's anger.
"Ji Meng, even if you handle it this way, you cannot change this great god's decision."
"Go now and have those two three-legged crows bring the high-ranking members of the demon race here to receive the Holy Imperial Decree."
Bai Chen's attitude was firm; he knew it was absolutely impossible to quell the wrath of the Great God Bai Chen with the lives of some ants.
"Ji Meng, if I don't see them before my patience runs out..."
"At that time, I, the great god, will take Nuwa's Imperial Decree back to the Wa Saint Palace and prove that you have disobeyed the sacred Imperial Decree."
Bai Chen also warned Ji Meng to urge the demon race's higher-ups to act quickly.
"Fellow Daoist Bai Chen, rest assured, I will immediately arrange for someone to inform all fellow Daoists to come and receive the Sage's Imperial Decree."
Ji Meng quickly calmed Bai Chen down, because if Bai Chen really took Nuwa's sacred Imperial Decree back and accused the demon race's higher-ups of disrespecting the sacred Imperial Decree, they would be finished.
Ji Meng quickly contacted the higher-ups of the demon race via telepathy. Just in case, he also sent his personal attendant to find the higher-ups, while he stayed here to keep Bai Chen calm.
"Fellow Daoist Bai Chen, what exactly did Empress Nuwa's Imperial Decree say?"
While keeping Bai Chen calm, the Demon Saint Ji Meng also tried to get some information out of Bai Chen.
Although this Imperial Decree from the sage was intended for the demon race, Ji Meng was certain that Bai Chen knew the contents of Nuwa's Imperial Decree.
Even if the cat didn't know the contents of the sage's Imperial Decree at first, it definitely peeked at it on the way.
Bai Chen: Does this great god need to peek at Nuwa's sacred Imperial Decree?
This is the sacred Imperial Decree that I, the great god, instructed Nuwa to issue to the demon race!
"Hey-hey!"
Bai Chen chuckled, revealing a rather amused smile, and said:
"Ji Meng, seeing that you're sensible, this great god doesn't mind telling you some news in advance."
From now on, you Ten Great Demon Sages will have one more superior to manage you."
Bai Chen believed that Ji Meng was the second-in-command among the Ten Great Demon Sages, which was why it leaked the information to him in advance to annoy him.
convex
Just as Bai Chen had predicted, Ji Meng's face turned extremely ugly upon hearing the news.
It's hard for any normal person to accept that a leader or superior has suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Not to mention Ji Meng, an incomparably noble Innate Divine Beast and Quasi-Saint powerhouse.
