Chapter 53: The Cold Shoulder; Di Jun and Tai Yi Arrive

~4 min read 795 words

"Fellow Daoist, what do you mean by that?"

The expressions of the Three Pure Ones froze, and Taqing spoke up to ask.

"What do you think? No one is a fool, or do you truly believe our Demon Tribe consists entirely of brutes? Enough, do not waste your breath. If you wish to know the answer, find it yourselves; there is nothing to say here in our Demon Tribe."

Di Jiang sneered.

"......"

The Three Pure Ones.

Are you saying our Demon Tribe are not brutes?

Looking at the eleven Ancestral Witches and thinking of Hou Tu who had not yet appeared, the Three Pure Ones opened their mouths, but in the end could only leave with faces as pale as iron.

The twelve Ancestral Witches gave them no face; what could they do? Fight head-on? They feared they would be slapped to death by Hou Tu with a single backhand. They could only leave first to find another way. Pity the gifts they brought were wasted. How infuriating.

"Do they truly take us for Bai Chi? If we revealed information about that One and that One took a dislike to us, what then? Absurd."

Watching the direction the Three Pure Ones left, Zhu Jiuyin sneered.

"Enough, there is no need to worry much about those three. The matter of our younger sister is the most important right now. She is only one final step away from perfection; everyone, hurry and prepare."

"If the Cycle of Reincarnation is opened in the Primordial World, Supreme Hongjun will surely be unable to sit still. That will be when the trial arrives."

Di Jiang said gravely.

"Yes!!!"

"Yes!!!"

"Yes!!!"

The Ancestral Witches felt a chill in their hearts and spoke in unison.

Mount Kunlun.

After returning from the Chaos, the Three Pure Ones gathered together once more.

"Eldest Brother, what do we do now?"

Shangqing asked in a rush: "Should we go directly to find Empress Wa?"

"Impossible. We have no karmic connection with Empress Wa. If we go rashly, we will likely meet with her displeasure. We must think of a foolproof method. There is no rush for that moment; let us all think together on what to do."

Taqing shook his head and said.

Though he longed for it, he still possessed calmness. To run over like that? The outcome would not be better than when they went to find the twelve Ancestral Witches. Why seek humiliation for oneself?

"We can only do this then."

Yuqing sighed and said.

Creation Grotto-Heaven.

Queen Mother of the West did not stay with Nuwa and Li Mo for too long; after chatting for a while, she immediately left and returned to her own Daoist field.

The Supreme Law has already been obtained. Under such circumstances, who could resist such temptation? Queen Mother of the West was no exception; the fact that she could hold back and stay for a while already showed great willpower.

"A new era has already begun; more and more people will walk the path to the Supreme. Sister, you must work hard."

Li Mo looked at Nuwa opposite him and teased.

"Does this need you to say it? I am your sister. If I fall behind others, would I not lose face? Rest assured, I am nearly finished with the first stage. Brother still has a long way to go, Hou Tu also needs some time, and as for Queen Mother of the West, do not even mention it."

"They still have a long way to go before they can surpass me. When sister attains the Supreme, I will cover for you."

Nuwa patted her chest and said with full confidence.

"Good."

Glancing at the billowing waves where Nuwa had patted, Li Mo smiled and said.

While chatting idly, as if sensing something, the two turned their gaze toward the entrance of the Creation Grotto-Heaven.

Someone else has arrived!

"Di Jun? Tai Yi? I thought they could endure for a while longer. I did not expect them to come now. Xiao Mo, shall I have Brother go to receive them?"

Nuwa raised her beautiful brows and spoke.

"No need. Sister, you go cultivate. I will handle them myself. I have laid out plans for so long for this very purpose. Why should we turn them away at the door? The more people who walk the path to the Supreme, the greater the benefit to me."

Li Mo shook his head and said.

"But..."

Nuwa stopped short, wanting to speak but holding back.

Some matters, even between brother and sister, cannot be discussed, after all, everyone has their own secrets. The two clearly maintained this tacit understanding, so Nuwa did not ask further; she only had some guesses in her heart. This need not be said.
