Haotian Caves In! (Continued)

"This is highly likely!"

The Queen Mother of the West felt this was highly likely, after all, the feud between Donghua, Haotian, and Bai Chen was not insignificant.

Now that these two have fallen into Bai Chen's hands, even if that cat doesn't kill them, it will make them wish they were dead.

Suppressing the South Bright Undying Volcano and letting the Southern Ming's fire burn forever would undoubtedly be a beneficial method.

"Fellow Daoist Queen Mother of the West, now that Bai Chen and the others have left, perhaps this is a good opportunity."

Startled, Haotian made a suggestion to the Queen Mother of the West.

He didn't want to be suppressed, to be suppressed South Bright Undying Volcano!

Seeing that Haotian was hinting to the Queen Mother of the West to break out of the Heavenly Prison, Donghua quickly spoke up to advise her:

"Fellow Daoist Queen Mother of the West, do not listen to Haotian."

"Bai Chen and his group are just waiting for you to make a move. Once you do, they'll have a reason to attack you, or even kill you!"

"Even if you intervene now and manage to rescue us and escape from the Heavenly Prison, you still can't escape the Heavenly Court."

Donghua felt that Bai Chen deliberately led his men away, leaving Queen Mother of the West in the Heavenly Prison, which was like digging a pit for Queen Mother of the West Queen Mother of the West see if she would fall into it.

If Queen Mother of the West dares to jump into the pit, Bai Chen will immediately lead his men to fill it with soil and kill Queen Mother of the West.

Donghua could see that this was a trap set by Bai Chen, and Queen Mother of the West could see it just as clearly.

If Queen Mother of the West hadn't been subdued by Bai Chen in just a few moves, she might still have dared to break into the Heavenly Prison.

However, because of that battle, the Queen Mother of the West knew the gap between her cultivation and Bai Chen's; going to the Heavenly Prison was suicide!

"What should we do then?"

"Are we just going to wait for Bai Chen to judge us and exile us to the South Bright Undying Volcano?"

Seeing that there was no chance of breaking into the Heavenly Prison, Haotian felt a sense of despair.

She complained inwardly about Donghua, blaming him for teaching her fox language, which led to her being captured by Bai Chen.

"If there's something Bai Chen particularly wants, perhaps we can persuade Bai Chen to release you."

The Queen Mother of the West felt that the best way to deal with the situation was to offer Bai Chen something to appease the cat and get it to release the person.

"Unfortunately, this humble Daoist does not possess what Bai Chen desires."

The Queen Mother of the West couldn't help but sigh, realizing that this was one of the reasons she had been rejected by Bai Chen before.

The only truly valuable items he possesses are the Kunlun Mirror, the Pure Water Alms Bowl, and the Phoenix Tail Golden Hairpin —three Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Bai Chen, being a wealthy collector of spiritual treasures, looked down on his own.

As soon as the Queen Mother of the West spoke, Donghua suddenly thought of something and said:

"Speaking of what Bai Chen desires, I do know of one thing: the Innate Spiritual Root, the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree, which Yaochi possesses."

Donghua knew that Bai Chen was extremely greedy, so if he used the Innate Spiritual Root Ren Water Flat Peach Tree as a bargaining chip, there was a high chance that the other party would release the person.

"That's right!"

"Bai Chen has always wanted the Innate Spiritual Root, the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree, from Yaochi. If we give it the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree, it will surely release us."

Haotian echoed, at this moment he only wanted Bai Chen to release him, without considering that the Innate Spiritual Root of the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree belonged to Yaochi, not to him.

"Fellow Daoist Queen Mother of the West, please first go to find Fellow Daoist Haotian's younger sister, Yaoji, and then go with Yaoji to find the Yaochi."

Donghua knew that if he asked the Queen Mother of the West to go directly to Yaochi to ask for the Innate Spiritual Root, the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree, she would definitely not get it.

If you go with Yaoji, there's still a chance.

"Can!"

The Queen Mother of the West nodded in agreement, exchanged a few words with Donghua, and then left the Heavenly Prison to find Yaoji.

"Even if we don't break into the Heavenly Prison, it would be better to attack Bai Fengjiu!"

Bai Chen, who was watching from the shadows, looked displeased when he saw that the Queen Mother of the West had not made a move.

"Heavenly Emperor, if you say that the Queen Mother of the West broke into the Heavenly Prison, then it is a break into the Heavenly Prison."

Fei Lian bowed to Bai Chen and made a suggestion.

"I, the Heavenly Emperor, am that kind of person!"

Bai Chen sternly rejected Fei Lian's suggestion. He reasoned that it might be inconvenient to deal with such matters now, as even the Sages might be watching the situation.

After Yaochi Yaoji, Yaoji went to the Purple Cloud Palace to ask Dao Ancestor Hongjun for help, but as Yaochi had guessed, she returned empty-handed.

Just as Yaoji was about to seek help from other sages, the Queen Mother of the West found her and went with her to Yaochi.

After the Queen Mother of the West and Yaoji arrived at the Yaochi Daoist temple, they subtly explained their purpose to Yaochi.

"What?"

When Yaochi heard the purpose of the Queen Mother of the West and Yaoji's visit, she was completely dumbfounded and asked in return:

"You want me to exchange the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree for Donghua and Haotian?"

Yaochi seriously suspects that the Queen Mother of the West and Yaoji have some mental issues, otherwise why would they say such things?

"Sister Yaochi, you must know this request is a bit unreasonable, but it's the only way to save my brother."

Yaoji, who had previously severed ties with Yaochi, is now playing the emotional card again in order to get Yaochi to hand over the Innate Spiritual Root, the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree.

Yaochi's eyes turned cold. This guy knew her request was excessive and still said it. Is he sick in the head?

"I refuse!"

"Queen Mother of the West, Yaoji, you should go and beg the Dao Ancestor, or some other sage!"

Yaochi directly rejected the request from the Queen Mother of the West and Yaoji, and subtly signaled them to get lost.

"Sister Yaochi, we have been companions for many years, and my brother is eager to become your Daoist partner!"

Yaoji did not leave, and once again played the emotional card.

"Who can they blame for their own grave mistakes?"

"And if he hadn't been so foolish, he wouldn't have ended up like this!"

Yaochi's tone was icy cold; she felt that Haotian and Donghua deserved it.

Bai Chen's creation of the Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws was clearly just an excuse to target Haotian and Donghua.

These two, instead of restraining themselves, went and violated Heavenly Rules and Immortal Laws. Don't they deserve it?

"Besides, I have absolutely no desire to become a Daoist partner with Haotian, a fool who has been having illicit relations with a fox spirit in the Heavenly Court."

Yaochi added that she knew Haotian wanted to become her Haotian partner, but she had no desire to do so at all.

It's all because Haotian is foolish and can't recognize his own place in the world.

Back when he was preaching at the Purple Cloud Palace, this guy, relying on being the Dao Ancestor Ancestor's gatekeeper, acted arrogantly in front of the Innate Great God who came to listen to his teachings.

This caused him to offend Bai Chen and made all the Innate Great God have a bad impression of him.

He was merely the last disciple of the Dao Ancestor, yet he dared to try to be on par with the sages, causing all the sages to dislike him.

Even after Haotian was officially appointed as the Jade Emperor by the Dao Ancestor, the Innate Great God still ignored him.

Bai Chen even led the way in causing him trouble.

Moreover, Yaochi felt disgusted at the thought that Haotian had actually committed adultery with a lowly fox spirit in the Heavenly Court.

It's truly a sin for me to be liked by such a filthy creature!

"Sister Yaochi, how can you be so heartless?"

When Yaoji heard Yaochi say such harsh words, she immediately became unhappy and could no longer pretend to be a sister.

"Yaoji, even the Dao Ancestor doesn't care about Haotian. Is it appropriate for me to go and save Haotian?"

"Under these circumstances, if I use the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree to save Haotian, would that be considered a violation of the Dao Ancestor's Imperial Decree?"

Yaochi's stern questioning of Yaoji was also a questioning of the Queen Mother of the West.

As an observer, she had a very clear understanding of the situation.

"Moreover, rather than handing over the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree to Bai Chen to save Haotian, I'd rather make a deal with Bai Chen Bai Chen and have him support me in replacing Haotian."

Yaochi felt that taking the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree to save Haotian was like throwing a pebble into the East Sea—it wouldn't even make a ripple, let alone bring any reward.

Yaochi isn't an innocent victim, so why would she agree to such a losing proposition?

Moreover, for Yaochi, Haotian being targeted by Bai Chen this time is of great benefit to her interests.

"Yaochi, you~"

Yaoji was speechless with anger at Yaochi. They had clearly been companions for over 1,700 yuan, how could the other party be so cold-blooded?

"Yaochi, I hope you will voluntarily hand over the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree, and I will give you some compensation."

Otherwise, I, as the head of Head of Female Immortals, will have to 'borrow' the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree from you."

The Queen Mother of the West unleashed her magical power, enveloping Yaochi and sealing off the entire Yaochi site. Her intentions were quite clear.

If Yaochi doesn't hand over the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree, she'll forcibly take it; this was something she and Yaoji had agreed upon.

As for the consequences, Queen Mother of the West were not currently considering Yaoji. They only wanted to use the Ren Water Flat Peach Tree to make a deal with Bai Chen and rescue Donghua and Haotian.

Yaochi, seeing Yaoji helping the Queen Mother of the West block her retreat, angrily rebuked:

"Yaoji, I used to treat you like a younger sister, and yet you tried to steal my treasure from an outsider."

Yaochi felt that Yaoji was also an ingrate, completely forgetting the kindness she had shown her in the past.

Just as Yaochi was at a loss, a voice appeared at this inopportune moment:

"Is that a fight going to break out?"

"Take this Heavenly Emperor with you!"

Bai Chen walked in, eating Yellow Middle Plum.
