Cat Loans-Interested? (Continued)

On Di Jun's side...

Di Jun looked at the golden pill that Xihe handed him and asked:

"Xihe, you refined this elixir yourself."

Di Jun had to admit that Xihe's poison pill was very well disguised, with no flaws on the surface.

"Certainly!"

When Di Jun asked her, Xihe and admitted it; she felt there was nothing wrong with admitting it.

"Di Jun, although your physical body has been reformed..."

However, your aura is still somewhat weak; this golden pill can help you recover some of your injuries."

Xihe handed the poison pill back to the other party, hoping they would eat it quickly.

Di Jun picked up the poison pill, pretended to examine it, and said:

"Xihe, why does this golden core contain a trace of the Moonlight Divine Water?"

Di Jun did not expose Xihe immediately because he did not sense Fuxi's presence nearby.

He planned to wait a little longer before closing the net, to see if he could detect Fuxi's aura and expose the guy.

Xihe was greatly alarmed upon hearing this.

I went to great lengths to remove the Moonlight Divine Water aura from the poison pill, so how did the other party discover it?

Now that the other party has found out, what should I do?

No, the other party hasn't discovered it yet; they're just a little suspicious.

Upon thinking of this, Xihe immediately feigned anger and sternly rebuked:

"Di Jun, the Eight Treasures Glazed Vase that condenses the Moonlight Divine Water is in Bai Chen's hands. Where would I get the Moonlight Divine Water?"

"Di Jun, this golden elixir was refined by me using the essence of the Moon Star. Just because its aura is somewhat similar to the Moonlight Divine Water, you actually suspect that I poisoned you."

In this desperate situation, Xihe's mind raced. First, she used Bai Chen's possession of the Eight Treasures Glazed Vase to disprove her own claim of having the Moonlight Divine Water.

Finally, she turned the tables on Di Jun, using words to portray herself as a victim in an attempt to make Di Jun feel guilty.

If it weren't for Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi keeping an eye on Xihe and watching her personally refine this highly poisonous substance with Moonlight Divine Water, the two brothers would have truly believed Xihe's words.

At that moment, the brothers couldn't help but sigh, "Women are born drama queens."

"That's right, the Moonlight Divine Water is formed by the Eight Treasures Glazed Vase absorbing the moonlight of the Moon Star."

"Your golden core was refined by absorbing the essence of the Moon Star, so it's normal that the two have some similarities in their auras."

When Di Jun replied to Xihe, he secretly transmitted his voice to Eastern Emperor Taiyi, allowing the latter to sense the auras of Fuxi and Bai Chen.

"You have good judgment."

Xihe breathed a sigh of relief when she realized she had finally fooled Di Jun.

Luckily, I acted quickly and cleverly, otherwise I would have messed things up.

Xihe Di Jun believed her words, Xi He began to look forward to Di Jun taking the poison pill.

Di Jun wasn't stupid; knowing full well it was a poisonous pill, he still swallowed it.

"Xihe, I remember your cultivation hasn't fully recovered yet, right? You should take this golden pill to restore your cultivation!"

As soon as Di Jun finished speaking, he handed the poison pill to Xihe.

Di Jun did this so that the person hiding in the shadows would inadvertently reveal their true colors.

"Di Jun, this golden pill was specially refined for you. How could I possibly take it?"

Xihe was immediately alarmed when she saw the poison pill that Di Jun handed back to her.

This poison pill was personally refined by Xihe, so she dared not take it and handed it back to Di Jun.

"Xihe, why say such things between husband and wife? You should take it and use it to increase your cultivation!"

"Di Jun, you are the head of the family, your cultivation is the most important. I want to eat, but I'll refine it later."

"..."

"With Taiyi here, even if I consume this golden pill, it won't be of much use to my cultivation, as it might increase my power slightly. You should take it and consume it!"

Di Jun Xihe his wife Xihe began to make excuses. Di Jun was trying his best to stall for time in order to buy time for Eastern Emperor Taiyi to find the enemy hiding in the shadows.

Xihe Di Jun was unwilling to eat the poison pill she had concocted, Xihe said:

"In that case, why not give this golden pill to Eastern Emperor? If Eastern Emperor's cultivation increases, he will surely be able to better fight against Bai Chen and the Witch Clan!"

Xihe thought it would be a good idea to give the poison pill to Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

After all, the threat posed by Eastern Emperor Taiyi far outweighs that of Di Jun.

If Eastern Emperor Taiyi is poisoned and crippled, Di Jun will be no threat without this trump card henchman.

"???"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was immediately dumbfounded; how did he suddenly get dragged into this?

"Xihe, you're not taking this golden pill? Could it be poisonous and you're afraid to eat it?"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi had no time for beating around the bush with Xihe; he immediately launched into a soul-searching question.

"How is that possible?!"

Xihe panicked completely. When Di Jun made excuses earlier, she had already suspected that her suspicions had been exposed.

Now that Eastern Emperor Taiyi has spoken, Xihe can confirm that she has been exposed.

"Then you should eat it!"

When Eastern Emperor Taiyi saw that Xihe still refused to admit it, he immediately rebuked her sternly and pressed her closer.

Xihe wanted to ask Di Jun for help, but was met with a cold look.

"Eat!"

"If you take this pill, I might consider pretending this never happened."

Now that things have come to a head, Di Jun doesn't want to pretend with Xihe anymore.

"Good!"

Xihe, and just as she was about to swallow the poison pill, she transformed into a beam of divine light and vanished.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was about to use the Golden Crow Transformation Rainbow Technique to catch up with Xihe, a single sentence stopped him:

"Taiyi, don't chase her too fast. Let her escape, and that will lure out the other fish!"

Xihe was able to escape just now because Di Jun deliberately created a weakness, giving the other party a chance to escape and making them subconsciously seek allies.

The plan is now in place; all we need to do is catch up with them when the time comes.

"Understood!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi suddenly realized why Xihe was able to escape earlier.

She had just thought that Di Jun had deliberately let Xihe escape because of their past relationship.

So it turns out my brother was planning to play the long game!

Xi Huang Palace...

A divine light entered Fuxi's Daoist Xi Huang Palace. Fuxi saw Xihe and anxiously inquired:

"Xihe, is it done?"

Faced with Fuxi's question, Xihe shook her head and said:

"Di Jun Eastern Emperor Taiyi saw through it!"

"They didn't take the poison pills made with my Three Lights Divine Water, so they probably already knew about us and were on guard."

"We must leave Heavenly Court immediately!"

Xihe came to find Fuxi because things had been exposed, and she wanted to ask Fuxi to leave the Heavenly Court together.

"It's too late, they're already here!"

Fuxi smiled wryly, for he had already realized that Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi were outside the Xi Huang Palace.

"Xihe, stay here and don't go out."

Fuxi gave Xihe a few instructions and then went alone to see the two brothers, Di Jun. He didn't believe that these two brothers would dare to attack the Daoist temple of their sage elder brother.

Di Jun: If it were Bai Chen's dojo, I really wouldn't dare to fight, but if it were Fuxi's dojo, I would definitely dare to fight.

Outside the Xi Huang Palace, Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi stared intently at the Daoist temple before them. They had just witnessed Xihe entering the Xi Huang Palace.

What Xihe and Fuxi did is now a done deal; there's no escaping it.

Fuxi emerged from his sacred space and, seeing Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Fuxi composure, feeling guilty, and said:

"Heavenly Emperor, Eastern Emperor, what brings you two brothers to my Daoist temple?"

Fuxi now had only one thought: he was betting that Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi would hesitate to take action directly because of his reputation as the elder brother of a sage.

"Fuxi, you know perfectly well what you've done."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi see Fuxi, this big bad wolf, still pretending to be innocent.

How come I never realized before that this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes was a bad apple?

Eastern Emperor Taiyi's words did not move Fuxi much; he had already anticipated this before he came out.

"Eastern Emperor, don't make things up without evidence."

Fuxi vehemently denied it, saying that these things could not be admitted, for admitting them would cause a great deal of trouble.

"Once we brothers capture you and that wicked woman, we'll have the evidence."
