Beat Them Up First! / Fines!
"Junior Sister Nuwa, your brother is truly foolish beyond measure!"
Taiqing Laozi had already foreseen that Nuwa was in seclusion and that Fuxi was falsely conveying Nuwa's Imperial Decree, but he simply didn't expose it.
For Taiqing Laozi, it didn't matter if Fuxi falsely transmitted the Imperial Decree, as long as someone else took the blame.
Whether Fuxi can shoulder this burden is not something Taiqing Laozi should consider.
Furthermore, Fuxi dared to deceive me, Taiqing Laozi, and dared to lie to this sage in front of me. He was incredibly audacious. When the time is right, I will definitely punish him for deceiving a sage.
It is said that Taiqing Laozi has already tricked Di Jun and Fuxi, because the mine he told Di Jun and Fuxi was actually Bai Chen's mine.
Taiqing Laozi felt that he had only told them where there was a mine, and hadn't said anything else.
Therefore, whatever Di Jun and Fuxi did was none of my business.
At this moment, Taiqing thought of Nuwa Laozi, feeling that she was both unlucky and lucky.
Nuwa's misfortune lay in having a pitiful and hateful, utterly incompetent brother like Fuxi.
Nuwa's good fortune lay in the fact that the other party had Bai Chen, a close friend. This time, Bai Chen essentially prevented Nuwa from falling into the water pit.
Following Taiqing 'Laozi instructions, Di Jun and Fuxi quickly found the mine.
When Di Jun saw so many miners constantly digging in the mine, a hint of disdain appeared in his eyes.
This is the sage Taiqing Laozi!
On the surface, he was highly respected and revered, but in reality, he enslaved all living beings to work as miners.
Before Jieyin and Zhunti the great thief Primordial World, who cheated, swindled, and robbed others, and even plotted against his own son.
In the story, Nuwa allows cats to commit atrocities, usurping her power and enslaving the demon race.
Today, there is a sage Laozi Taiqing who enslaves all living beings, making them mine slaves.
Di Jun felt that although Yuanshi Tianzun and Sect Master Tongtian didn't have any scandals yet, they probably weren't good people either.
Di Jun felt that once he attained sainthood, he would definitely expose the true nature of these saints.
Di Jun was unaware that he had misunderstood Taiqing Laozi, because the mine did not belong to Taiqing Laozi, but to Bai Chen.
Chapter 418 Give them a beating first!
Di Jun and Fuxi looked down at the mine below and decided that since it was Taiqing Laozi who had sent them, they wouldn't stand on ceremony.
They raised their hands and used their supernatural powers to take away the Shouyang Copper, successfully entering the pit that Taiqing Laozi had dug for them.
"This much Shouyang Copper is enough to forge the Witch-Slaying Sword!"
Di Jun thought that this much Shouyang Copper was enough. If there were enough human beings, he might be able to forge a few more Witch-Slaying Sword.
Since joining Bai Chen's Holy Fire Meow Meow Cult in his early years, the ancestor Ziyishi was sent by Bai Chen to Shouyang Mountain to guard the mine as a supervisor.
After realizing that the Shouyang Copper had been stolen, the ancestor Ziyishi immediately gave chase.
"Who are you, daring to steal the Shouyang Copper?"
The ancestor Ziyishi was furious as he looked at the two thieves opposite him.
Normally, even the sage Taiqing Laozi would send Xuan Du to him to retrieve the Shouyang Copper, rather than directly robbing it.
These two thieves dare to come and rob us directly! Shouyang Mountain is Bai Chen's territory, the site of Taiqing Laozi's Daoist temple. Aren't these thieves incredibly audacious?
"This is Emperor Di Jun."
When Di Jun unleashed his power, he directly announced his name, believing that this mere ant-like Daluo Golden Immortal would be greatly startled upon hearing his name.
"The ancestor of humanity, the Ziyishi, I am the demon Xi Huang, Fuxi!"
When Fuxi revealed his identity, he also revealed the identity of the ancestor of mankind Ziyishi.
There was no way around it; the identity of the Human Ancestor Ziyishi was too obvious. The human race was an acquired race with few Daluo Golden Immortal. The only ones who could possess such strength and the power of Merit and Fortune were the Three Ancestors of the Human Race.
Ziyishi was shocked when she learned of Di Jun and Fuxi's identities. She never expected that these two petty thieves had such a powerful background.
In particular, Fuxi was the elder brother of Nuwa, the mother Nuwa of the Human Mother Goddess.
However, considering that Bai Chen had entrusted him with an important task—guarding the mine— Ziyishi still steeled himself and said:
"Two great masters, this is the mine of Sect Leader Bai Chen. Please return the Shouyang Copper."
Ziyishi felt that she could not betray Bai Chen's trust and had to uphold her duty.
"!!!"
"That Evil Cat has a mine here, how come we didn't know?"
When Di Jun and Fuxi heard that the mine belonged to Bai Chen, they were immediately shocked.
Isn't Shouyang Mountain the territory of Taiqing Laozi? When did it become Bai Chen's territory?
In fact, very few people in the entire Primordial World knew that Shouyang Mountain was Bai Chen's territory. After all, Laozi of Taiqing preached the Tao to the human race on Shouyang Mountain, and thus attained sainthood.
With the separation of the Three Pure Ones, Taiqing Laozi moved the Eight Views Palace to Shouyang Mountain, so everyone subconsciously regarded Shouyang Mountain as Taiqing Laozi's territory.
But no one expected that after Laozi of Taiqing attained sainthood and returned to Kunlun Ruins, Bai Chen and Nuwa immediately occupied Shouyang Mountain and built a mine.
Later, when Taiqing Laozi moved to Shouyang Mountain, he still paid Bai Chen rent in front of Nuwa.
Of course, in order to save face for Taiqing Laozi, Bai Chen never took the initiative to say that Shouyang Mountain was his territory.
"Tell Bai Chen that the Saint Taiqing sent us to retrieve it."
Di Jun didn't care anymore. After leaving his message, he took Fuxi and fled.
Anyway, it was Taiqing Laozi who sent him to retrieve the Shouyang Copper, and Nuwa also agreed to forge the Witch-Slaying Sword.
Therefore, Di Jun thought it best to let Bai Chen cause trouble with Taiqing Laozi and Nuwa!
Only Fuxi felt uneasy, because he knew very well that Nuwa had never agreed to the demon race slaughtering humans!
Seeing that Di Jun and Fuxi had run away and that he could not catch up, Ziyishi quickly prayed to Bai Chen.
On their way back, Di Jun and Fuxi were blocked by a small figure.
There are only so many people who dare to block Di Jun and Fuxi's path, and this figure is undoubtedly Bai Chen.
Bai Chen pulled out the Heaven Measuring Ruler and angrily rebuked Di Jun and Fuxi:
"You two fiends have some nerve, daring to try and steal from me, the great god."
"That little brat from the Ziyishi, I've already told you this is my territory! You think you can just take what you want and leave? Are you tired of living?"
It was originally waiting for the demon race to come and buy its mines, but instead, they came and robbed it.
In this Primordial World, below the level of a sage, only I, the Great God Bai Chen, have ever taken what belongs to others. When has it ever been my turn for others to take what belongs to me?
These monsters dared to provoke the Great God Bai Chen; they were truly rebelling against the Heavenly Gang.
When Di Jun saw Bai Chen holding the Heaven Measuring Ruler, he immediately frowned. He hadn't expected the cat to arrive so quickly.
"Bai Chen, it was the Saint Taiqing who brought us to retrieve the copper from Shouyang Mountain."
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Di Jun deliberately brought up Taiqing Laozi.
"Tell this great god what the Saint Taiqing said?"
Bai Chen didn't believe Di Jun's words at all, thinking that given Taiqing Laozi's personality, he would never get involved in a mess that had nothing to do with him.
Di Jun quickly explained the whole story, and Bai Chen sneered upon hearing it, then sternly rebuked him:
"Damn monsters! The Saint Taiqing only told you that there was a mine on Shouyang Mountain, he didn't say anything else. Did he ask you to take my Shouyang Copper?"
Bai Chen finally understood: Taiqing Laozi had dug a pit for Di Jun and Fuxi, waiting for the two of them to jump into it themselves.
"This..."
Upon hearing this, Di Jun and Fuxi were momentarily at a loss for words to refute Bai Chen.
"Two prodigies, behold the magic treasure!"
Without saying a word, Bai Chen immediately unleashed the Heaven Measuring Ruler and began the fight.
Bai Chen's idea was simple: first, beat up Di Jun and Fuxi, then demand compensation.
Otherwise, if you demand compensation first, you can't beat someone up.
After all, if Di Jun and Fuxi offered compensation, and Great God Bai Chen, still beat them up, it would only make people say that Great God Bai Chen, was unethical.
"Bai Chen, do you really think we're afraid of you?"
When Di Jun saw Bai Chen attack without warning, he was furious.
Both I and Fuxi are powerful cultivators, and with two against one, I have the advantage. What do I have to fear from Bai Chen?
The two sides immediately began fighting. Although Di Jun and Fuxi were in high spirits, they soon regretted it.
After an unknown amount of time, Ziyishi and Xuan Du finally arrived at the scene.
They only saw Bai Chen chasing after Di Jun and Fuxi, holding the Heaven Measuring Ruler Bai Chen one hand and the Hammer of Reason in the other, his body protected by spiritual treasures.
Di Jun and Fuxi, unarmed, struggled to use their magical powers and were in a very sorry state.
This was the first time that the Ancestor Ziyishi had seen Bai Chen, the sect leader, take action and fight against Innate Great God of the same level.
She used to think that Bai Chen was just a kept man, mainly relying on the Human Mother Goddess Nuwa.
Today, upon seeing Bai Chen overpower two Innate Great God, her understanding of their combat prowess has been completely overturned.
You really can't judge a cat by its appearance!
Although Xuan Du had heard from Taiqing Laozi that Bai Chen was quite powerful, seeing it today confirmed it.
However, Xuan Du thought that Di Jun and Fuxi were also stupid. These two, as Innate Great God, actually went to fight Bai Chen, who was fully armed, with their bare hands. Weren't they just asking for a beating?
Chapter 419 Fine!
If Di Jun and Fuxi knew that Xuan Du was criticizing them, they would definitely give Xuan Du a good whack on the head.
