Di Jun, Hand Over the Hush Money!
"What a disgrace!"
After Nuwa appeared, she glanced at Di Jun and immediately rebuked him, showing no respect whatsoever to this Heavenly Emperor Di Jun.
Nuwa reprimanded Di Jun, then turned her gaze to Bai Chen. Before she could speak, Bai Chen preemptively said:
"Nuwa, you can't insult this three-legged crow just because you insulted it!"
Bai Chen didn't think he was a useless piece of trash like Di Jun who would obediently stand there and take the scolding.
"Snort!"
Nuwa snorted coldly and glared at Bai Chen, but ultimately did not scold him.
Nuwa knew that if she scolded the cat, it would definitely talk back to her, given its boldness.
"You yourselves, how do you plan to handle this?"
Nuwa didn't have time to announce her own ideas, but instead turned her attention to Bai Chen Di Jun, letting them come up with their own solutions first.
"Empress Nuwa, we don't need those 3 billion Merit and Fortune Coin."
As for the 2 billion Merit and Fortune Coin that Bai Chen wanted as a confidentiality fee, how about we just let it go?"
Di Jun was actually aware of the situation. Although Nuwa had appeared to uphold justice, Nuwa was still more inclined to side with Bai Chen.
After all, this wasn't the first or second time that Nuwa had allowed cats to commit evil deeds.
Therefore, Di Jun didn't expect anyone to help him get back the 3 billion Merit and Fortune Coin that Bai Chen had swindled from him; he only hoped that the confidentiality fee would be waived.
Upon hearing that Di Jun didn't want to pay a confidentiality fee, Bai Chen immediately lost his composure and shouted:
"A confidentiality fee of two billion Merit and Fortune Coin is required, not a single one less. If you dare to shortchange me even one, this great god will make sure this matter is known throughout the entire Primordial World!"
You want Great God Bai Chen to keep quiet without paying? Dream on!
No, you shouldn't even dream about it!
Even in Di Jun's dream, Great God Bai Chen, was determined to spread this matter throughout his dreams and turn it into his nightmare!
Di Jun: Bai Chen, you're really too mean.
Nuwa was somewhat troubled by the attitudes of Bai Chen Di Jun.
Although it seems that this matter was Bai Chen's fault, and that the Bad Cat set a trap for Di Jun, Di Jun would not have fallen for it if he hadn't had bad intentions.
Nuwa now wondering if she would be suspected of covering up Bai Chen's actions!
In fact, the outcome was already predictable when Nuwa was considering whether or not to side with Bai Chen.
Seeing that Nuwa had not yet expressed her opinion, Eastern Emperor Taiyi bowed and said:
"Empress Nuwa, this whole affair was orchestrated by Bai Chen from beginning to end, a scheme to harm my brother. I implore you, as a Heavenly Dao Saint, to witness this and uphold justice!"
Eastern Emperor Taiyi suggested using the name of the Heavenly Dao Saint to morally blackmail Nuwa, but he forgot one thing: the Heavenly Dao Saint represents the Heavenly Dao, and his words are just and fair.
Eastern Emperor Taiyi's moral blackmail enraged Nuwa.
With a single glance from her, Eastern Emperor Taiyi was lifted up by the neck by an invisible force of rules, just like a dead dog.
"Eastern Emperor Taiyi, you're supposed to be Innate Divine Beast who's cultivated for so many eons, don't you even understand such a simple principle as flies don't land on eggs without cracks?"
"If Di Jun hadn't harbored evil intentions, would he have been able to be outmaneuvered by Little White?"
As soon as Nuwa finished speaking, she threw Eastern Emperor Taiyi hard to the ground.
Nuwa hadn't made a decision yet, but Eastern Emperor Taiyi's words made her decide.
Fuxi was speechless. Why was Eastern Emperor Taiyi courting death for no reason?
To put it nicely, that's called moral blackmail; to put it bluntly, that's courting death.
"Hey! Hey! Hey!"
Bai Chen was immediately displeased when he heard Nuwa reprimand Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Di Jun:
"Nuwa, watch your mouth! This great goddess is no fly!"
Nuwa can scold Di Jun as a rotten egg with cracks, but she shouldn't have accidentally hurt the cat!
Great God Bai Chen, is a well-known good cat in the Primordial World. How did he become a fly in the other party's mouth?
"Nuwa, what else do you mean by saying that this great goddess schemed against this three-legged crow?"
"Clearly, this great god saw that this three-legged crow harbored evil intentions, so he used a little trick to teach it a lesson and show it that it shouldn't be thinking about crooked ways all the time!"
Bai Chen continued to correct Nuwa's mistake. He was clearly doing good deeds and punishing bad people, so how did he become the bad person in her eyes?
Seeing that Di Jun Bai Chen had begun to whitewash itself and pin all the blame on him, Di Jun could no longer contain himself.
"Bai Chen, are you saying that you cheated me out of my Merit and Fortune Coin, and now you're extorting me, or is it for my own good?"
"Stop!"
Di Jun wanted to continue criticizing Bai Chen, but Bai Chen forcibly interrupted him.
What constitutes deception? What constitutes extortion?
"This great god just wants to teach you a lesson, so you'll abandon evil and do good, thus becoming a good bird!"
Bai Chen corrected the mistakes in Di Jun's words.
That's right!
Great God Bai Chen Great God Bai Chen, never set up a scheme against Di Jun from beginning to end. He was simply educating Di Jun Di Jun his own good.
"Bai Chen, you~"
Bai Chen's act of distorting the truth left Di Jun speechless with anger. He wanted to retaliate, but his anger prevented him from speaking.
"Di Jun, I will now give you two options:"
First, give Little White another two billion Merit and Fortune Coin as hush money, and I guarantee this matter will remain a secret in Little White's mind.
Secondly, I will return the 3 billion Merit and Fortune Coin to you on behalf of Little White. As for what happens next, you will have to bear the consequences yourself."
To avoid being accused of favoring Bai Chen, Nuwa gave Di Jun two choices.
In any case, Nuwa herself gave Di Jun the choice; how Di Jun chooses is up to him.
If the other party dares to use this incident to cause trouble afterward, that will be the day their "Heavenly Emperor" is dismissed.
After hearing the two choices offered by Nuwa, Di Jun reluctantly made his choice:
"Empress Nuwa, I choose to pay Bai Chen hush money."
Unfortunately, Di Jun dared not choose the second option, since according to the second option, Nuwa would return the 3 billion Merit and Fortune Coin to him on Bai Chen's behalf.
Nuwa offered money, would you dare accept it?
Even if she accepted it herself, Nuwa wouldn't say anything.
Given Bai Chen's personality, he would definitely spread this matter throughout the entire Primordial World, nailing himself to the pillar of shame.
At that time, Di Jun's reputation would probably be no better than that of the three great thieves of the Primordial World: Jieyin and Zhunti, and Bai Chen.
At that time, he would not only be despised by all living beings in the Primordial World, but also possibly hated by Xihe.
"Give me the money!"
Seeing that Di Jun had chosen to pay hush money, Bai Chen stretched out her little paws to ask for it.
"Empress Nuwa, we take our leave."
After handing over the hush money to Bai Chen, Di Jun bowed to Nuwa and left with his entourage.
After Di Jun left, Bai Chen counted the two billion Merit and Fortune Coin that had been paid as hush money.
"Nuwa, as the saying goes, 'everyone who sees it gets a share,' let's split it fifty-fifty!"
Bai Chen felt that although Nuwa hadn't been of much help and hadn't made any significant contributions, she had still put in a lot of effort!
"Why are you being so generous?"
Nuwa was surprised; this seemed to be the first time the cat had voluntarily offered to share money with her.
"This great god is always very generous!"
"Here's your billion!"
Bai Chen handed the ten billion Merit and Fortune Coin to Nuwa, but then her tone suddenly changed:
"But back then, I, the Great God, fined Fuxi ten billion, and you let him escape, so this ten billion is offset!"
After settling the score with Nuwa, Bai Chen pocketed the ten billion Merit and Fortune Coin.
"Bad Cat, are you kidding me?"
Nuwa picked Bai Chen up, realizing that the cat was deliberately teasing her.
In a fit of anger, Nuwa gave Bai Chen another good rub on the cat's head.
Although ten billion Merit and Fortune Coin are a drop in the ocean for Nuwa, she has to deal with Bai Chen's behavior!
Heavenly Court...
Di Jun returned to the Lingxiao Treasure Hall with Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Fuxi. When Bai Ze saw the three of them looking like this, he knew that what he had guessed had come to pass.
After seeing Bai Ze, Di Jun recounted everything that had happened outside the Wa Saint Palace.
"Bai Ze, I regret it! I should have listened to you and gone to the Wa Saint Palace."
Di Jun was filled with remorse. If he had listened to Bai Ze and hadn't gone to the Wa Saint Palace to settle scores with Bai Chen, he wouldn't have been extorted for hush money by the villain Bai Chen again.
Two billion Merit and Fortune Coin!
My money!
My money!
"Heavenly Emperor, try to think more positively!"
"At least your relationship with Xihe is stable now."
Despite Bai Ze's outward Di Jun, he had actually already guessed that Di Jun had been extorted by Bai Chen for hush money.
