Cat Loans-Interested? (Continued)
If Di Jun dares to make a move in the main hall of the Nine Splendor Jade Palace, then he's quite something; I admire his courage.
In any case, Kunpeng himself wouldn't dare to make a move within the Nine Splendor Jade Palace; he simply didn't have the guts.
Bai Ze, fearing that Di Jun would fall into a trap and be provoked by Kunpeng, quickly advised him:
"Heavenly Emperor, this is a sacred place; you must not make a move!"
Bai Ze knew that if Di Jun made a move here, the other party would be doomed.
Actually, even without Bai Ze's advice, Di Jun wouldn't have made a move here.
Although he was angry, he wasn't stupid; how could he not understand what it meant to take action here?
This is the sacred ground of the sages. No matter the reason, any action taken here is an offense against the sages.
Not to mention Houtu, who was an enemy sage.
"Kunpeng, quickly put away the light screen for me, or don't blame me for being impolite after we leave the Underworld."
Di Jun dared not make a move here, so he could only threaten Kunpeng.
"Heavenly Emperor, even outside the Underworld, you probably can't attack us."
"After all, if Vice Cult Leader Bai Chen and Empress Nuwa find out that you attacked us, the core members of the demon race, without cause, they will definitely not let you off!"
"Heavenly Emperor, if you want me to remove the light barrier, you should go and discuss it with Vice Cult Leader Bai Chen!"
Kunpeng is a wise man; he understood the situation of the demon race long ago.
Di Jun's position as Heavenly Emperor is nearing its end.
From the moment Di Jun envisioned the demon race becoming the protagonist of heaven and earth, thereby seizing supreme fortune and attaining sainthood through primordial chaos, he was already courting death.
Nuwa, the sage of the demon race, would not allow a second sage to appear among the demon race.
Of course, if the second saint of the demon race were Fuxi or Bai Chen, that would be a different story.
Nuwa did not depose Di Jun for two reasons: firstly, Di Jun still had some value, and secondly, there was no suitable reason for him to do so.
If Di Jun dares to kill her, Nuwa will have a reason to use the Monster Summoning Banner even if Di Jun doesn't die.
Kunpeng's attitude enraged Di Jun:
"This is outrageous!"
"This is outrageous!"
Ever since Kunpeng became Bai Chen's lackey, this guy has become increasingly audacious, often contradicting himself.
But ever since he was defeated by Bai Chen, Kunpeng has stopped hiding his true intentions and openly mocked him, going against him directly.
Di Jun was deeply saddened by the thought that Kunpeng had humiliated him, the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan, in front of outsiders, showing him no Heavenly Emperor whatsoever.
They even used the names of Nuwa and Bai Chen to intimidate him, which made his killing intent even stronger.
That treacherous traitor Kunpeng deserves to die!
When they attacked Northern Darkness, they should have killed Kunpeng outright instead of leaving him alive!
Kunpeng: Di Jun, do you know what it means that you were defeated by Bai Chen in a head-on confrontation?
This means that Bai Chen already possesses the strength to become the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan, and it means that Di Jun's value to Nuwa is almost zero.
This means that Nuwa could depose Dijun from his Di Jun at any time and make Bai Chen the new Heavenly Emperor of the demon race!
You've fallen on such a state, why should I respect you?
Eastern Emperor Taiyi Kunpeng was furious that he had shown such disrespect to his elder brother Di Jun. He wanted to speak up and rebuke him, but Bai Ze told him not to speak.
Bai Ze knew very well that, given the current situation, it wouldn't make much of a difference if Eastern Emperor Taiyi spoke up.
Kunpeng's backer is Bai Chen, and Bai Chen's backer is Nuwa.
Eastern Emperor Taiyi had no powerful backing and could not intimidate Kunpeng at all.
To intimidate Kunpeng nowadays, one still needs to find someone with a sage as their backer.
Bai Ze turned his gaze to Fuxi Fuxi, seeking his help.
Among his group present, Fuxi was the only one with the backing of a sage.
Fuxi's backer was also Nuwa. Although Fuxi couldn't defeat Bai Chen, Bai Ze felt that Fuxi should be able to handle Kunpeng.
After understanding Bai Ze's meaning, Fuxi nodded, feeling that his chance to shine had arrived.
If even Fuxi himself couldn't handle the Evil Cat Bai Chen, surely he could handle a mere lackey?
"Kunpeng, I command you to remove the light barrier!"
Fuxi put on a very high ego, acting as if he were the one in charge.
Before Kunpeng joined Bai Chen, Fuxi was somewhat polite to Kunpeng, wanting to win him over and make him loyal to the demon race.
However, ever since the other party sided with Bai Chen, Fuxi has regarded Kunpeng as an enemy.
There's no need to be polite when dealing with enemies.
"Xi Huang, I'll say it again, you should go and discuss this with Vice Cult Leader Bai Chen!"
"As long as Vice Cult Leader Bai Chen issues Imperial Decree ordering me to remove the light barrier, I will remove it immediately."
Kunpeng showed no respect to Fuxi; who was he talking to?
Return this seat?
According to my true lineage, my predecessor, Kunpeng, was the Chaos Demon God who controlled the Speed Laws — the Old Ancestor Hun Kun, who was of the same generation as Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
Even though I haven't reconstituted my Primordial Fruit Status, I'm still older than you Fuxi, in terms of seniority alone!
"Kunpeng, how dare you disobey my orders!"
Fuxi was furious that Kunpeng wouldn't even give him face.
Kunpeng boarded the Monster Summoning Banner, knowing that the enemy's life was in Nuwa's hands, and that he, Fuxi, was Nuwa's elder brother.
How dare Kunpeng disobey my orders? Does he even want to live?
Kunpeng: Fuxi, I'll just ask you one question: have you ever touched the Monster Summoning Banner?
Bai Chen: This great god knows that; this demon has never touched the Monster Summoning Banner.
He wasn't even qualified to enter the treasure vault of the Wa Saint Palace, let alone touch the Monster Summoning Banner.
"Xi Huang, by what authority do you command this humble Daoist?"
"The Demon King? Or Empress Nuwa's brother?"
Faced with Fuxi's angry rebuke, Kunpeng did not get angry, but instead asked Fuxi a question in return.
"I, Fuxi, am both the Xi Huang of the demon race and my sister's elder brother!"
Fuxi wanted both identities, as he felt they did not conflict.
Seeing this, Kunpeng couldn't help but laugh. Fuxi's two identities also represented two different stances, and one can only occupy one stance at a time.
Otherwise, you'll please neither side and annoy both.
Faced with the pressure of Fuxi's dual identity, Kunpeng kindly offered a reminder:
"Xi Huang, I have something to remind you of."
"According to the hierarchy of the demon cult, Empress Nuwa is the leader, and Fellow Daoist Bai Chen is the Vice Cult Leader."
"And you and I are of the same status, so you have no right to order me around!"
"If you want the light barrier removed, given the status and position of the Demon Sect, you'll have to ask Vice Cult Leader Bai Chen for permission!"
Since Fuxi was not given a specific position when Nuwa Establish Demon Cult last time, Kunpeng has understood one thing.
Fuxi's status with Nuwa had diminished, and Nuwa was almost completely disappointed in Fuxi.
"You... you~"
Kunpeng brought up the matter of the demon cult, which made Fuxi so angry that he couldn't stop breathing.
The fact that Nuwa Establish Demon Cult and appointed Bai Chen as its Vice Cult Leader has always been a thorn in Fuxi's side.
Fuxi had no objection to Nuwa Establish Demon Cult, but he strongly objected to Nuwa appointing Bai Chen as the Vice Cult Leader.
If Nuwa also appointed her own brother as the Demon Cult Vice Leader, she could also tolerate Bai Chen becoming the Vice Cult Leader.
The problem is, as Kunpeng said, that he was not appointed as the Demon Cult Vice Leader by Nuwa. Compared to others, he only had the title of Nuwa's brother.
In reality, his status within the Demon Sect was far inferior to that of Bai Chen, the Vice Cult Leader. To put it bluntly, he was essentially working under Bai Chen.
Even someone like Bai Chen, who served as Nuwa 'Pet Beast, could become the Demon Cult Vice Leader.
As Nuwa's Nuwa brother, Fuxi shared the same identity as Di Jun, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Kunpeng, and the Ten Great Demon Sages.
I was so angry!
Now Kunpeng is bringing this up, and even revealing everything in front of all the Innate Great God. Isn't he trying to infuriate Fuxi to death?
The Innate Great God was observing the gossip had long heard that the Heavenly Court of the Demon Race was rife with murky waters, but seeing it today, he wondered, "Where are these murky waters?"
This is clearly an endless abyss in the East China Sea!
Kunpeng, a creature enslaved by the Monster Summoning Banner, dared to oppose Di Jun and Fuxi, which shows how chaotic the situation in Heavenly Court was.
Compared to the others, Bai Ze discovered something even worse.
That's Jin Ning, the head steward of the Wa Saint Palace, also watching the drama unfold among the onlookers.
Jin Ning, as Nuwa's close attendant, was Nuwa's confidant.
Now, Jin Ning turns a blind eye to Kunpeng's behavior and tacitly approves of Kunpeng humiliating Di Jun and Fuxi.
What this means is self-evident.
Under Bai Ze's persuasion, Di Jun, Fuxi, and their group had no choice but to cultivate the "patience" technique once again.
Without cultivating the art of 'patience', what can Di Jun and Fuxi accomplish?
