Cat Loans-Interested? (Continued)
Seeing you two get along so well makes this great master very happy. All of Bai Dashen's hard work has not been in vain!
"If that good-for-nothing Di Jun were even slightly useful, he would have already retrieved my son's remains from Bai Chen's hands. Why bother Xi Huang?"
While thanking Fuxi, Xihe also complained to him about Di Jun.
"The Heavenly Emperor is indeed somewhat incompetent!"
Fuxi followed Xihe's words and said a sentence
"How could I be incompetent?"
"He's utterly unworthy of being a husband and a father!"
Xihe saw that Fuxi agreed with her, she felt that she had met a kindred spirit and began to pour out her troubles.
"In the past, I regarded the Heavenly Emperor as a close friend and brother. I shed blood and tears for him, but he thought I was incompetent and useless..."
Upon hearing Xihe's words, Fuxi also began to open his heart and accuse Di Jun.
Di Jun: You guys are going too far, actually stepping on me to strengthen your relationship.
Inside the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, Bai Chen, who was arguing with Di Jun, suddenly chuckled.
Despite its argument with Di Jun, it's actually keeping an eye on what's happening outside.
To prevent Xihe and Fuxi's affair from being discovered too early, it has been secretly using Fragment of the Jade Plate of Creation to help them conceal their secrets.
It was arguing with Di Jun here to buy time for Fuxi and Xihe.
"Bai Chen, what are you laughing at?"
When Di Jun noticed that Bai Chen had laughed for no apparent reason, his intuition told him that something bad was going on, so he asked him about it.
"You guess?"
Bai Chen chuckled. Now that he knew about Xihe and Fuxi's situation, no matter how he looked at Di Jun, he felt that the other man was being cuckolded.
Di Jun didn't have time to play riddles with Bai Chen; he got back to the main topic:
"Bai Chen, are you really unwilling to stop this?"
Di Jun's words contained a hint of threat towards Bai Chen.
He hoped the cat would behave and stop after taking the money; if the cat continued to cause trouble, he wouldn't get a single penny from it.
Bai Chen lay lazily on the small chair, a playful smile on his lips:
"Dead Bird Di Jun, you're the one who started this mess, yet you're talking like I, the great god, am trying to frame you?"
Bai Chen had previously sought wealth, so he had already agreed to spend money to avoid disaster for Di Jun.
But this time is different. This time, Bai Chen is not after money, but to restrain Di Jun and create more time for Xihe and Fuxi.
Given the current situation, which keeps Di Jun occupied, why would Bai Chen help Di Jun solve his problems for petty gains?
"Bai Ze, let's go!"
Seeing that Bai Chen was being disrespectful, Di Jun waved his robe and left with Bai Ze.
He refused to believe that he couldn't handle this situation without Bai Chen.
After bringing Bai Ze back to his palace, Di Jun discussed with Bai Ze how to break the deadlock.
After discussing it for a long time, the two came up with a solution that was hardly a solution at all.
Just then, Xihe returned. Upon seeing Xihe, Di Jun instinctively asked:
"Xihe, what were you doing outside just now?"
"Don't you know that the Heavenly Court is in chaos right now, Bai Chen and his gang are all watching us?"
Because Xihe has caused a lot of trouble, Di Jun is now genuinely worried that Xihe will bring back a few more big problems for him.
Di Jun thought it would be better for the other party to stay obediently in the dojo. Why did they have to go out?
"Di Jun, it's all because you're incompetent. If you had any ability, you wouldn't have been forced into this situation by Bai Chen and the others."
Xihe showed no respect to Di Jun. Xihe already harbored considerable resentment towards Di Jun because of the tragic deaths of her sons earlier in the Yuanhui era.
Because Bai Chen tied the Innate Marriage Red Thread between Xihe and Fuxi, it triggered Xihe's increased dissatisfaction with Di Jun.
"I'm incompetent?"
Upon hearing this, Di Jun was furious. How many of the three thousand Innate Great God in Primordial World primordial world dared to go against Bai Chen?
Di Jun and Bai Chen had already shown commendable courage by fighting for so many eons.
Three thousand Innate Great God: Di Jun, is that commendable courage? You're clearly brainless.
Knowing full well that Bai Chen had powerful backers, they still went to fight Bai Chen; they were simply asking for trouble.
I'm not afraid of that cat's backer; he might crush you one day.
You're incredibly lucky to be alive now.
At this moment, Di Jun noticed what Xihe was holding.
"These are Shu Kun's remains!"
Upon closer inspection, Di Jun recognized the object in Xihe's arms and was immediately shocked. He pointed at Xihe and scolded her:
"Xihe, how did you get it back? Don't tell me you stole it from Bai Chen?"
Do you know how much trouble this will cause us?
In his shock, Di Jun initially assumed that Xihe gone to Bai Chen's place to steal something.
Upon hearing this, Xihe was extremely disappointed in Di Jun. She and Di Jun had been Daoist partners for so many eons, yet he would think such a thing.
Enraged, Xihe offered little explanation, instead relentlessly questioning the other party:
"Di Jun, are you that afraid of Bai Chen?"
"Are you afraid that Bai Chen is using this as an excuse to dethrone you?"
"If Bai Chen questions you, just say that it was Xihe who stole it, and that it has nothing to do with you."
Xihe's scolding and questioning left Di Jun at a loss for what to do.
Bai Ze, who was just watching the drama unfold, was speechless.
He was originally discussing with Di Jun how to deal with the underhanded tactics used by Bai Chen and his group.
As it turned out, Di Jun actually caused a family conflict.
This guy is no good at governing the demon race, and now he can't even manage his own household. He's truly useless.
Left with no other choice, Bai Ze decided to speak up Xihe:
"Heavenly Emperor, you have wronged the Empress!"
"We were just seeing Bai Chen, Empress didn't have time to steal from Bai Chen."
Bai Ze sometimes really wanted to ask Di Jun what was wrong with his brain. Putting aside whether Xihe was strong enough to snatch or steal things from Bai Chen, he wondered.
Just like before, weren't we arguing with Bai Chen?
Xihe wasn't even present during that time, so how could she have stolen Shu Kun's remains from Bai Chen?
Xihe nodded her thanks to Bai Ze for speaking up for her.
At the same time, she regretted it even more. She must have been blind to have fallen for that idiot Di Jun.
With Bai Ze's reminder and seeing Xihe He's disappointed look, Di Jun finally realized how wrong he had been.
"Xihe, I was wrong just now."
Realizing his mistake, Di Jun quickly apologized to Xihe.
After apologizing, Di Jun expressed his confusion:
"Xihe, how did you get this mutilated corpse of Shu Kun?"
Xihe had never had any contact with Bai Chen Bai Chen, so how did she obtain the remains of her son, Shu Kun?
How strange!
"When I went out, I unexpectedly encountered Xi Huang, who gave me the remains of Xi Huang Shu Kun."
Xihe explained the situation, but of course she concealed some things, such as her complaining about Di Jun with Fuxi.
Upon hearing that it Fuxi to Xihe, Di Jun frowned and whispered:
"Fuxi, would this useless piece of trash really be so kind?"
Because Fuxi did not help deal with the negative comments about Di Jun, Di Jun had already mentally labeled Fuxi as a traitor.
Although Xihe didn't show it on her face when Di Jun criticized Fuxi's behavior, she was extremely displeased inside.
Even though Xi Huang was an outsider, he helped me retrieve some of Shu Kun's remains.
And you, Di Jun? A father!
Knowing full well that his son's remains were in Bai Chen's hands, he couldn't get them back.
If Xi Huang was a useless person, then you Di Jun, are even worse than a useless person.
Although Xihe harbored resentment towards Di Jun, she didn't show it much on her face. Instead, she said to Di Jun:
"Di Jun, have someone investigate what price Xi Huang paid to retrieve some of Shu Kun's remains from Bai Chen."
"At that time, we will make up for the losses suffered by Xi Huang."
Xihe felt that Fuxi had already helped enough, so she couldn't let others suffer losses.
Of course, Xihe wanted to compensate Fuxi for his losses and show goodwill, hoping that Fuxi would find a way to retrieve more of his son's remains from Bai Chen.
After all, the remains of his Shu Kun in his arms were not complete, only a part of them, not to mention that the remains of his eldest son Bo Huang, were still entirely in Bai Chen's hands.
"Xihe, you want me to compensate Fuxi? Are you kidding me?"
