Di Jun's Dissatisfaction with Nuwa! (cont.)
If this Evil Cat wants to cause trouble, just say so. Don't beat around the bush and stir up trouble for no reason!
"Stop!"
Bai Chen interrupted Di Jun and then explained:
"Of these 22 million Merit and Fortune Coin, 20 million were used by you and Eastern Emperor Taiyi- one battle."
The other two million is compensation for your defamation of me, the great god, because you insulted me in private.
As a noble and virtuous Innate Divine Beast, Great God Bai Chen, and all his actions are justified.
"You... you~"
Di Jun pointed at Bai Chen, too angry to speak.
I tried to reason with this Evil Cat Evil Cat, but it beat me to the punch.
In all his countless eons of cultivation, Di Jun had never seen such a shameless person!
"You damned three-legged crow, if you want to hear the sermon, buy a ticket now, or get out of here!"
"Don't get so angry here, or you'll blame me later!"
Bai Chen's words made Di Jun's blood boil. Di Jun was now certain that this Evil Cat couldn't beat him and was trying to anger him to death.
Just then, Fuxi prepared to enter Wa Saint Palace to see Nuwa and accuse Bai Chen.
Seeing that Fuxi was trying to evade the fare, Bai Chen threw the Hammer of Reason at him, forcibly forcing Fuxi back and stopping him from doing so.
"Sis-con, stop right there! Didn't you hear me say I need to buy a ticket?"
Bai Chen sternly rebuked Fuxi, realizing that he could no longer be so lenient with him.
So much so that these monstrous talents didn't take him, the Great God Bai Chen, seriously at all, and even tried to sneak in without paying right in front of him.
These damned monsters have no manners at all; I'll have to talk to Nuwa about it later.
Fuxi dodged the Hammer of Reason, steadied himself, pointed at Bai Chen, and rebuked him:
"Bai Chen, this is my sister's training ground. I, Fuxi, have to buy a ticket? How ridiculous!"
Fuxi felt that Bai Chen was being unreasonable, after all, the Wa Saint Palace was the sacred site of his younger sister Nuwa, and he was Nuwa's older brother.
You don't need to buy a ticket to come to Nuwa's temple.
"Sis-con! Nuwa is your sister, what does that have to do with me?"
"If you dare to skip the ticket, I'll beat you to death!"
Bai Chen Bai Chen swung his hammer to threaten Fuxi, but he never took Fuxi's identity Nuwa's brother seriously.
After all, it dared to hit Nuwa when it was unhappy, so why would it be afraid of Fuxi, Nuwa's brother? How ridiculous!
"You are a group of fourteen, each with a destiny, and each destiny has a source of 129,600. This great deity will give you a round number of 2 million Merit and Fortune Coin."
Bai Chen read out the ticket price and gestured for Di Jun to pay quickly.
Third Elder of Taiyin Wang Shu whispered to Di Jun:
"Di Jun, Bai Chen overcharged you by more than 180,000 Merit and Fortune Coin. It was rounded up by the higher-ups."
Wang Shu finally understood why Bai Chen was so infamous—because that cat was truly awful.
"Thank you for the reminder, Wang Shu."
Despite Di Jun's outward expression of gratitude towards Wang Shu, he was actually speechless inside.
Can't you figure this out yourself? Do you need Wang Shu to remind you?
If it weren't for the fact that Wang Shu is Xihe's sister, I wouldn't even give her a second thought.
"Bai Chen, let's not even talk about how much you overcharged us."
"Take Kunpeng, Ji Meng, Fei Lian, Qin Yuan, and Shang Yang, for example. None of them recognize me as the Heavenly Emperor anymore. Shouldn't you, Bai Chen, pay for their admission fees?"
Di Jun's words were directed at Bai Chen, and also at those traitors.
"They are Demon Saint and Demon Master, but I am neither the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan nor a member of the Demon Clan. What do they have to do with me?"
"And you, Di Jun, are the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan. Shouldn't you pay for their tickets?"
Bai Chen was speechless, even though he could have let them in with just a word.
But the problem is that Great God Bai Chen, isn't a demon, so why should he buy tickets for Demon Saint and Demon Master?
Upon hearing this, Di Jun turned his gaze to the four great Demon Saint, Ji Meng, Fei Lian, Qin Yuan, and Shang Yang, and said:
"Ji Meng, you four, did you hear that? In Bai Chen's heart, you're not even worth a few hundred thousand Merit and Fortune Coin."
Di Jun thought that if these four Demon Saint were willing to admit their mistakes and return to his side, it would be better if they did.
He, as the Heavenly Emperor, could be magnanimous and forgive them for siding with Bai Chen Bai Chen bribing him.
As for Kunpeng, Di Jun understood that this traitor still harbored resentment over the time when the demon race captured him.
Because Nuwa attained sainthood, that traitor dared not hate Nuwa, but only dared to hate himself, Di Jun, and borrowed power from Bai Chen to oppose him.
"Bai Chen, I'm giving you 2.5 million Merit and Fortune Coin. I'll use this to buy tickets for Tong Xihe and the three fellow Daoists as well."
Di Jun generously gave Bai Chen another 2.5 million Merit and Fortune Coin to buy tickets for Xihe and the three sisters.
According to later generations, Di Jun now has the air of a domineering CEO.
Of course, in reality, if we define the sages as the rulers of the Primordial World, then Di Jun, the Heavenly Emperor of the demon race, is indeed a powerful ruler.
A foolish, domineering CEO who spends all his time daydreaming and won't live much longer!
"Sorry, that's not enough!"
After Bai Chen pocketed the 2.5 million Merit and Fortune Coin, he reminded Di Jun.
Bai Chen's main strategy was to collect the money first, since once the money was in his pocket, he wouldn't take it out of the bank.
"Not enough?"
Di Jun was stunned, then questioned Bai Chen:
"Bai Chen, isn't it 129,600 Merit and Fortune Coin for one ticket?"
"I, the Emperor, have given an extra 500,000 Merit and Fortune Coin; how could that not be enough to buy three more tickets?"
Keep in mind that fourteen tickets from the demon Merit and Fortune Coin.
Now that I've only added three tickets and given Bai Chen an extra 500,000 Merit and Fortune Coin, that's more than enough!
"Hehe!"
Bai Chen sneered, then began to mock:
"You three-legged crow, if you can't afford to be rich, then don't pretend!"
Bai Chen despised Di Jun the most; he was clearly calculating, yet he still pretended to be rich in front of outsiders.
"Fellow Di Jun, at first it only wanted us to give it 400,000 Merit and Fortune Coin, but we were not satisfied and said a few words to it."
It then raised its price on the spot, reaching one million Merit and Fortune Coin.
Wang Shu started complaining again, accusing Bai Chen of his evil deeds. She got angry just thinking about it.
The three sisters had no grudge against Bai Chen, so why was this Evil Cat bullying them?
Xihe bowed to Di Jun and said:
"Fellow Di Jun, we won't trouble you with the one million Merit and Fortune Coin; we'll cover it ourselves."
Xihe felt that Di Jun had already been swindled out of a lot of Merit and Fortune Coin by Bai Chen, so it was really inappropriate to ask him to buy tickets for the three sisters.
Xihe retrieved one million Merit and Fortune Coin and handed them to Bai Chen:
"Bai Chen, we three sisters will buy our own tickets."
"Give back the extra 500,000 Merit and Fortune Coin that Fellow Di Jun Di Jun gave you!"
Just as Bai Chen was about to take the Merit and Fortune Coin from Xihe He's hand, Di Jun quickly stepped in front of him and handed over the remaining 500,000 Merit and Fortune Coin that he hadn't given Bai Chen earlier.
"Bai Chen, I've made up for the 500,000 Merit and Fortune Coin I didn't give you earlier, to buy tickets for Fellow Daoist Xihe and the others."
Di Jun's sycophantic behavior left the demon race's high-ranking officials dumbfounded. They felt that something was very wrong with Di Jun today!
Others might not understand Di Jun's sycophantic behavior, but Bai Chen knew perfectly well that it was due to the influence of the Great Dao's Destiny — the Heavenly Marriage.
In the Primordial World, there were Three Marriages of Heaven, Earth, and Man, and Man. Among them, the Heavenly Marriage was between Di Jun and Xihe.
"Di Jun, you don't need to go to such lengths."
Xihe calculated that, including the 500,000 Merit and Fortune Coin from earlier, Di Jun had given Bai Chen a total of 25 million merit coins today!
"Fellow Daoist Xihe, if you had given Bai Chen that one million Merit and Fortune Coin just now, you would have given Bai Chen an extra five hundred thousand Merit and Fortune Coin."
Knowing this cat's temperament, there's absolutely no way it will return those 500,000 Merit and Fortune Coin to me.
"I'll make up the 500,000 Merit and Fortune Coin, and we'll save 500,000 Merit and Fortune Coin."
Di Jun knew Bai Chen's temperament all too well; with that Evil Cat's nature, he would absolutely not give up the Merit and Fortune Coin he had obtained.
"Di Jun, you've already lost enough money today. You should accept this one million Merit and Fortune Coin!"
Xihe handed one million Merit and Fortune Coin to Di Jun, hoping Di Jun would accept them.
Di Jun quickly refused, then smiled apologetically at Xihe:
"Fellow Daoist Xihe, it is all due to my incompetence that you have made me a laughingstock."
"This one million Merit and Fortune Coin will naturally be paid by this humble Daoist priest on your behalf!"
Di Jun felt it was all Bai Chen's fault. If it weren't for that Evil Cat deliberately causing trouble, he wouldn't have repeatedly lost face in front of Xihe.
If Xihe develops a bad impression of me because of what happened today, I'm not done with this Evil Cat!
Seeing that Di Jun still dared to glare at him, Bai Chen directly shouted:
