Cat Loans-Interested? (Continued)
Upon hearing this, Di Jun was immediately dumbfounded. Xihe wasn't wrong, was she?
"I gave that useless Fuxi so many benefits, so it is only right that he retrieves my son's remains."
Di Jun was quite self-righteous, believing that Fuxi had received benefits from him, he should help him with his affairs.
This is receiving the emperor's bounty and sharing his burdens.
Upon hearing this, Bai Ze, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but gasp.
Fortunately, Fuxi wasn't here. If the other party had heard Di Jun's words, they probably would have rebelled against Di Jun on the spot.
It's even possible that Fuxi might cooperate with Bai Chen to deal with Di Jun.
At that time, Bai Chen will offer slanderous words to Nuwa, Fuxi will then provide further assistance by spreading falsehoods and deceiving the saints.
At that time, it would be difficult for Di Jun to survive.
Bai Ze bowed to Di Jun and said:
"Your Heavenly Emperor, Your Empress is right. We should indeed reimburse Xi Huang for this debt!"
Bai Ze felt that the relationship between Fuxi Di Jun was now on the verge of collapse.
Now that Fuxi has given part of the remains of Di Jun's son to Xihe, this is a gesture of goodwill towards Di Jun!
Di Jun could also use this opportunity to return the courtesy to Fuxi and ease tensions between the two sides.
Fuxi: Bai Ze, please stop making things up.
Am I trying to curry favor with Di Jun?
This person is clearly trying to curry favor with Xihe, the wife of Di Jun!
"This..."
Upon hearing this, Di Jun hesitated for a moment.
Honestly, if anyone else had said this to me, even if it were Xihe or Eastern Emperor Taiyi, I would have immediately and firmly refused.
But it was Bai Ze who said that!
This is his strategist and advisor!
Based on my experience over the years, if I listen to Bai Ze, I'll at most suffer a small loss.
If you don't listen to Bai Ze, you'll definitely suffer a great loss.
"Bai Ze, go and find out what price Fuxi paid to retrieve my son's remains from that Evil Cat."
When the time comes, just reimburse Fuxi truthfully!
But we must not let the other side gain any advantage whatsoever.
In the end, Di Jun agreed to reimburse Fuxi, but his bottom line was that Fuxi could not gain any benefit whatsoever.
Bai Ze breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Di Jun was willing to listen to his advice.
If the other party is willing to listen to advice, it means there is still hope for them.
"Um!"
After bowing, Bai Ze withdrew to carry out his duties.
Although Di Jun agreed to reimburse Fuxi, Xihe He was still unhappy.
Because Di Jun listens to Bai Ze, not himself.
Xihe really wanted to ask Di Jun: was he, his wife, more important, or Bai Ze, his subordinate?
So much so that you, Di Jun, listen to Bai Ze like this?
The Lingxiao Treasure Hall...
After separating from Xihe, Fuxi immediately went to find Bai Chen.
Fuxi looked at Bai Chen, who was slumped on the high platform, and shouted:
"Bai Chen, wake up! I need to talk to you."
Fuxi came to see Bai Chen this time to discuss business.
∩(●?(工)?●)∩Aww~~
Bai Chen opened his eyes after only a short while, stretched, and exhaled a breath of stale air.
(●?(工)?●)
Bai Chen stared at Fuxi with his triangular eyes and asked:
"Damn monster, why aren't you doing your own thing? What are you doing here looking for me, this great god?"
Despite Bai Chen 'Bai Chen calm expression, he was actually a little flustered by Fuxi's sudden arrival.
Could this fiend have discovered the Innate Marriage Red Thread?
That's not right. With this prodigy's cultivation level, he shouldn't have been able to discover it!
Even if the other party finds out, I Great God Bai Chen, will absolutely not admit it!
Fuxi no longer bothered to hide his intentions and directly stated his purpose:
"Bai Chen, the remains of Xihe's sons Bo Huang and Shu Kun, are in your hands. Name your price?"
Previously, Fuxi had given some of the bones from Shu Kun's remains to Xihe, which greatly pleased Xihe.
Therefore, Fuxi took pity on Xihe, her mother, and wanted to obtain Bo Huang's remains and Shu Kun's remains from Bai Chen to give to Xihe.
Upon learning of Fuxi's purpose, Bai Chen was immediately shocked!!!
Fuxi, you're amazing!
Others gave the female fairy gifts that were all rare and precious treasures.
You, Fuxi, sent Xihe a gift—a skeleton—you've pioneered a new school of thought!
"Bo Huang's remains have already been turned into a kite by this great god, and it's impossible for me to sell them to you. This great god wants to keep them for my collection!"
"As for Shu Kun's rotten bones, this great god is considering selling them to you for a flat price of 1.5 billion Merit and Fortune Coin."
Bai Chen only planned to sell one kite, not because the kite made by Bo Huang was particularly valuable.
Instead, it can occasionally fly a kite in front of Di Jun and say something to Di Jun:
Di Jun, isn't my kite pretty good?
Made from your son's bones!
"Bai Chen, isn't your price a bit too high?"
Fuxi was somewhat dissatisfied with Bai Chen's offer; Shu Kun was merely a Daluo Golden Immortal in his lifetime.
Even if Shu Kun was Three-legged Golden Crow, his remains wouldn't be worth 1.5 billion Merit and Fortune Coin, would they?
One hundred million Merit and Fortune Coin are already too much!
Bai Chen was a little unhappy when he saw that Fuxi thought the price was too high.
Does this guy really think that his Great God Bai Chen doesn't know that he bought Shu Kun's remains as a gift for Xihe?
Being stingy when giving gifts to others is a disgrace to the Innate Great God and Disgrace to Innates!
"Damn monster, this great god can tell everyone you spent 10 billion Merit and Fortune Coin!"
A price reduction is impossible; Bai Chen can at most offer Fuxi some verbal favors.
Anyway, there's no tax on these Merit and Fortune Coin, so it doesn't matter what you say about them.
As long as it's not too outrageous, there will be people outside who believe it.
After pondering for a moment upon hearing this, Fuxi asked:
Is this really true?
Fuxi thought that turning 1.5 billion Merit and Fortune Coin into a staggering 10 billion yuan seemed like a pretty good idea.
"Really!"
Bai Chen nodded. This guy... why should he lie to him about something like this?
Would I gain anything from lying to him?
"Good!"
Fuxi finally nodded in agreement, and Bai Chen exchanged money for goods.
After Bai Chen and Fuxi reached a deal, it immediately summoned several lackeys and ordered them to spread the news.
In no time, news that Fuxi had spent billions of Merit and Fortune Coin to redeem Shu Kun's remains spread widely in the Heavenly Court.
The news quickly reached Di Jun's ears.
"What, 10 billion?"
After hearing the news from Bai Ze, Di Jun was shocked by the figure of 10 billion.
One hundred billion Merit and Fortune Coin is no small sum for Innate Great God; it's far beyond a simple act of sacrifice.
It's like cutting a piece off your heart!
"Is Fuxi just pretending to be so generous because he knows I'm going to reimburse him?"
Di Jun strongly suspected that Fuxi knew he was going to reimburse him and was therefore feigning generosity in order to swindle him out of money.
You, Fuxi, you spend money like water and pretend to be generous, making me Di Jun, pay for everything, like a wronged child, huh?
Bai Ze tentatively asked Di Jun:
"Heavenly Emperor, should we still reimburse Xi Huang now?"
To be honest, Bai Ze was also shocked when he first found out about this.
Buying the remains of a Daluo Golden Immortal for 10 billion Merit and Fortune Coin? That price is absolutely outrageous!
