Taiyi the Tool Man, Taiyi's Emotional Problems

Wu Chu, unaware of this, was somewhat puzzled, but did not refuse Taiyi's request to stay. After Taiyi, Wu Chu quite liked Taiyi's bold and unrestrained nature.

Although Di Jun was equally bold, the domineering nature that accompanied his boldness was not what Wu Chu liked. However, he naturally wouldn't show it.

Seeing this, Di Jun stayed at Purple Jade Mountain for a few more days. Changxi was asking Little Moon Spirit and the others about making pastries and brewing spirit wine, while Di Jun privately asked Taiyi why he was staying at Purple Jade Mountain. Was it because he had taken a fancy to one of Nuwa's fellow Daoists?

Then she directly told Taiyi that even if he took a liking to one of them, it was impossible, because Fellow Daoist Nuwa had Fellow Daoist Fuxi! And in the eyes of Houtu Daoist Houtu and Qingqiu, there was only Fellow Daoist Chu; what use was he staying here?

Di Jun, who saw through everything perfectly, failed to realize that Taiyi actually liked Changxi... But it's not fair to blame Di Jun for not noticing, because Taiyi concealed everything so well. In their daily interactions, Taiyi would almost never glance at Changxi.

Even Wu Chu, an observer, didn't notice, let alone Di Jun, who was directly involved.

Taiyi was stunned when he heard Di Jun say that.

After his initial surprise, he transmitted his voice to Di Jun, saying, "What are you saying, brother? Houtu Daoists Houtu and Fellow Daoist Nuwa, as well as Fellow Qingqiu, are all good, but they haven't moved me. I'm staying on Purple Jade Mountain simply to enjoy the fine wine and food for a while longer; I have no other intentions. Besides, without me around to get in your way, brother, wouldn't it be perfect for you to spend this time with Fellow Changxi, traveling around and seeing the sights? Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

"Is that really what you think?" Di Jun looked at Taiyi with some suspicion.

Taiyi rolled his eyes at him and retorted, "What else could it be? Do you think I've taken a fancy to that Little White, Little Moon Spirit?"

Di Jun laughed and said, "If you really have the ability to lure that Little White, Little Moon Spirit, back to our Solar Palace, then that's your skill."

Taiyi laughed and said, "Forget it! Otherwise, you'll fight me to the death."

"Don't worry, you have the Chaos Bell protecting you. Even if you face those fellow Daoists, you will be invincible," Di Jun said with a smile.

Taiyi shook his head and chuckled, saying, "Brother, how could you know that Fellow Daoist Nuwa and Fellow Daoist Fuxi don't possess Primordial Supreme Treasure to protect them? Even the weakest of them, Fellow Daoist Chu, should not be underestimated! Alright, I'll stop joking with you, Brother. Please make yourselves at home, Brother and Changxi."

And so, Di Jun and Chang Changxi enjoyed their time together, indulging in romance and beauty.

Taiyi, on the other hand, stayed at Purple Jade Mountain, spending his days drinking and chatting with Wu Chu. He even served as a tool at Fuxi's invitation, refining a Spirit Treasure for Bai Ze.

Wu Chu was at a loss for words. Why did Taiyi mere tool while Fuxi was refining Spirit Treasure for Bai Ze?

The Spirit Treasure the two crafted for Bai Ze was a bone banner modeled after the Wu Chu Innate Central Wuji Apricot-Yellow Banner. It was made with a section of the spine of Two-Headed Crocodile Dragon as the pole and the Alligator Dragon skin as the banner surface. Its quality was also top-grade, but only at a low-grade level. It had both defensive and offensive effects.

Furthermore, because the skin of the Two-Headed Crocodile Dragon has the ability to devour, this White Bone Banner, while not invincible in terms of defense, can absorb some of the power of the opponent's magic.

Bai Ze clearly hadn't expected that this creature, which seemed to be merely a guest here, would receive a reward from Wu Chu, and not just any reward, but a Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasure.

Even though it's only a low-grade, top-quality item, it's still a top-quality item!

Although it is an Acquired treasure, it cannot easily unleash the full power of Spirit Treasure due to the limitations of its own cultivation level, but this is still a great surprise for it.

Holding the White Bone Banner, Bai Ze couldn't help but think: It really is better to be a pet on Purple Jade Mountain! No wonder Little White and A Qiu are so devoted to them. If I'm still so fickle, it seems I'm letting them down!

Unfortunately, no one could hear its heartfelt words; all they saw was its tearful appearance, completely moved.

Wu Chu rubbed its head and laughed, "Work hard on your cultivation! Otherwise, you won't be able to unleash the power of this Spirit Treasure. You should know that this Spirit Treasure was jointly crafted by my elder brother Fuxi and Taiyi. Old Round's Spirit Treasure are only of the high-grade level!"

Of course, that superior grade is a high-level superior grade, only one level lower than the initial level of the best grade.

Unfortunately, even the Golden Immortal Realm Old Round Lao Yuan was unable to unleash the full power of the high-grade acquired Spirit Treasure, the Acquired Primordial Wootz-Iron Staff.

The difference between Innate Spirit Treasure and Acquired Spiritual Treasure is simply too obvious.

Bai Ze hugged the White Bone Banner, nodded, and then happily skipped and hopped away to go into seclusion to refine the Spirit Treasure.

Wu Chu looked at Taiyi beside him and smiled, "Thank you very much, Brother Taiyi!"

Taiyi waved his hand and laughed, "It's a small matter, not worth mentioning. However, I do have something I'd like to ask you, fellow Daoist. Would you be willing to accompany me for a stroll around Flower Mountain?"

Wu Chu coughed lightly and said, "Taiyi has just come out of seclusion and doesn't know that my sister and the others are soaking in the Hot Spring on Flower Mountain! Let's go for a walk in the snow!"

Winter has come again, with snow covering the ground and icicles hanging everywhere, creating a silver-white world.

Wu Chu, dressed in a white silk robe, and Taiyi, dressed in a red robe, walked in this white world. From a distance, it was easy to overlook Wu Chu.

"I wonder what questions Taiyi has for me?" Wu Chu asked, his hands tucked into his sleeves behind his back, letting the cold wind whip his hair and robes.

He was quite curious about Taiyi's question, after all, this was the future Demon Emperor.

Taiyi coughed lightly, glanced around involuntarily, and said, "Before we go on, may I ask what your relationship is with Houtu Daoist and Qingqiu?"

Upon hearing Taiyi's question, Wu Chu was taken aback for a moment, then asked doubtfully, "Taiyi, could it be that you have taken a fancy to one of my two older sisters?"

"That's not true!" Taiyi hurriedly denied, "My elder brother said that Houtu Daoist Houtu and Qingqiu have eyes only for fellow Daoists, how could I possibly steal someone else's love?"

Wu Chu coughed lightly, breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded, saying, "Just as your elder brother said, my relationship with those two sisters is indeed special. I do like them, and they like me too, but because of my cultivation level, so..."

Taiyi nodded slightly and said, "It seems you have a good understanding of the feelings between men and women. It's like this, I have a friend who, along with his elder brother, seems to have fallen for the same woman at the same time..."

Upon hearing this, Wu Chu was speechless, thinking: Why don't you just say it was you?

Meanwhile, Yibao inside Wu Chu was roaring with laughter, "Big news, big news! I never expected this hearty guy to actually like his sister-in-law!"
