"We can consider it."
"Really?"
Zhen Yuanzi was overjoyed. Although he had not received a definite answer, it was enough that she was willing to consider it.
Zhunti, Tongtian, and Jieyin under the bed exchanged glances, all revealing embarrassed indignation. So this brat treated everyone the same!
Just then, two golden rainbows appeared in the sky and rapidly approached Mount Buzhou. The scorching waves could be felt from far away.
"Di Jun, Eastern Emperor Taiyi!"
Zhen Yuanzi's expression changed. He hurriedly pulled Hong Yun along, preparing to leave. He absolutely could not let those two see him, or there would be trouble.
"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, Di Jun and Taiyi have come to pay you a visit."
Unfortunately, it was already too late. Accompanied by a hearty voice, two golden beams of light descended into the courtyard, revealing the figures of Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi.
Hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi was frantic. How could he get out? His eyes darted around as he searched for somewhere to hide.
"Uncle Zhen Yuanzi, you can hide under my mother's bed."
Shen Hongfei gave a playful smile and spoke in an adorably innocent voice.
This rotten brat!
Tongtian and the other two cursed furiously in their hearts under the bed. Once this child was born, they would have to teach him a good lesson.
"Thank you!"
Zhen Yuanzi was delighted. After thanking him, he pulled Hong Yun over.
Rustle!
Zhen Yuanzi pulled open the curtain and immediately saw the corner of a garment through the gap beneath the stone bed. His excited expression froze. There were people underneath!
Zhen Yuanzi hurriedly lowered his head and saw Tongtian's livid face, as well as Zhunti and Jieyin clinging tightly to each other. His heart sank. It's over. Why were they here?
Hong Yun, on the other hand, looked at the three of them curiously. "Fellow Daoists, what are you doing here?"
The three of them looked awkward. "Fellow Daoists Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun, long time no see!"
Pfft!
The Three Xiao Sisters could not hold back their laughter. But when they saw Tongtian's gaze sweep over, they quickly stopped, their little faces flushed from holding it in.
Hahaha, this is so much fun.
Shen Hongfei laughed heartily, staring fixedly at the edge of the stone bed. He wondered how they would hide and looked forward to it. "Uncles, Uncle Di Jun and the others are coming in. Aren't you going to hide?"
Zhen Yuanzi was startled. He could not worry about anything else and hurriedly lowered himself, preparing to hide.
"Don't come in, there's no room!"
The three of them hurriedly stopped him. They were already packed in tightly enough. If two more people came in, would they not be squeezed out of shape? Tongtian hurriedly pushed Zhen Yuanzi with all his strength, forcing him out.
Zhen Yuanzi had no choice but to look for another place. When he saw the space beneath the stone table, his eyes lit up. He casually tore down the curtain on one side and walked over.
"Zhen Yuanzi, give me back my curtain!"
Zhen Yuanzi acted as if he had not heard him. He covered the stone table with the curtain, which happened to conceal the space beneath it, then pulled Hong Yun inside with him.
Tongtian saw that one side of the curtain was missing. Since it could no longer conceal his body, his expression grew even darker, and he forcefully shifted farther inside.
Jieyin's face was squeezed out of shape. But seeing that Nuwa had already gone outside and estimating that Di Jun was about to enter, he could only endure without losing his temper.
Seeing this, Shen Hongfei's face twitched. That was my mother's curtain! How could you just tear it down, Zhen Yuanzi?
I'll definitely find a way to get it back later!
Shen Hongfei pondered this secretly. Seeing that there was no more show to watch, he lost interest and turned his gaze toward Di Jun and Taiyi, wondering what treasures he would receive this time.
Di Jun was the leader of the Demon Clan. Although the Demon Clan had not yet reached the scale it would have in later generations, it should still possess plenty of good things.
"Greetings, Fellow Daoists!"
Nuwa walked out of the cave abode and saluted the two of them. "Have you two Fellow Daoists also come because of my child?"
"Yes and no!"
A ripple flashed through Di Jun's golden eyes. After exchanging a glance with Taiyi, he smiled boldly. "My brother and I have come for you!"
"For me?"
Nuwa's beautiful eyes went blank. She pointed at herself with her delicate hand, astonished.
She usually stayed at Fengqi Mountain and had never interacted with Di Jun and Taiyi. Why had they suddenly come looking for her?
Could it be because of the gourd spiritual root from a hundred years ago?
Nuwa looked toward the gourd pond in the courtyard and panicked. What should I do?
Inside the cave abode, Zhen Yuanzi, Tongtian, Zhunti, and the others were also startled when they heard that Di Jun had come for Nuwa. Di Jun and Taiyi's goal differed from theirs. If they found out why they had come, would they not be exposed?
No, they absolutely could not let the two of them see them. They all held their breaths, while Tongtian shrank backward with all his strength. The two Westerners did not dare to lose their tempers and could only hug each other even more miserably.
Leaving aside what the others were thinking, Shen Hongfei sensed his mother's gaze from inside her womb and instantly understood her thoughts. He found it secretly amusing. If Di Jun regretted giving up the gourd spiritual root back then, he would have come to demand it long ago. Why would he only come now? His mother was truly so naive.
Di Jun and Taiyi had come today. If he had guessed correctly, they probably intended to recruit his mother into the Demon Clan!
At this thought, Shen Hongfei got a headache. The Witch-Demon Great Tribulation was a fiery pit. If things went wrong, one could suffer eternal ruin. Although his mother would become a Saint and face no real danger,
As the Holy Mother of the human race and a dignified Saint, his mother had later hidden in the Chaos and refused to come out. She had definitely been implicated by the karmic consequences of the Witch-Demon War!
No, he could not let his mother join the Demon Clan!
Shen Hongfei looked at Di Jun and Taiyi outside and grinned. "Uncle Di Jun, you came to see Mother, but you didn't come to see me."
"Don't you like me anymore?"
When Di Jun heard Shen Hongfei speak, a trace of amusement flashed through his eyes. This child seemed to have had a good impression of him before; otherwise, he would not have said such a thing. He hurriedly replied, "How could that be? I like you more than anything, Nephew."
"Besides, I prepared a gift for you when I came here!"
As Di Jun spoke, he looked toward Taiyi and nodded slightly.
Receiving his elder brother's signal, Taiyi waved his large hand. A ripple appeared in space, spiritual energy churned, and dazzling treasure light burst forth, illuminating the courtyard with brilliant splendor. Ten sparkling spiritual treasures appeared in the air and slowly rotated.
Shen Hongfei looked over and directly ignored the six Innate Spiritual Treasures that appeared extraordinary at a glance. Instead, he looked toward the remaining four. There was a small sapling that appeared to be an Innate Spiritual Root, as well as a small flame containing a rich aura of the great sun. His heart stirred. Could that be True Sun Fire?
Di Jun truly lived up to his status as the leader of the Demon Clan. He was far more generous than the others!
Shen Hongfei then looked toward the jade slip on one side and a stone shining with five-colored light. His heart stirred again. Could this stone be the Sky-Mending Stone?
At this thought, Shen Hongfei could not help asking, "Uncle Di Jun, what are that jade slip and that pretty stone?"
Di Jun was delighted to hear this. It seemed that the child really liked these treasures; otherwise, he would not have asked. He immediately said, "This jade slip records my divine ability, the Golden Crow Transformation Rainbow Technique. With one escape, you can travel a hundred and twenty thousand miles."
"As for this five-colored stone..."
Di Jun's tone turned solemn. He looked toward Taiyi. What kind of thing is this?
Seeing his elder brother's gaze, Taiyi shook his head. He had only seen the stone in the treasury and casually brought it along because he thought it looked beautiful. He did not know what it did either.
Seeing the expressions of Di Jun and Taiyi, Shen Hongfei found it hilarious. He knew that the two of them might not even know the stone's function, so he stopped making things difficult for them. "Thank you, Uncle. I like it very much!"
"Mother, the uncles have been waiting at the door for a long time. Let them come in!"
