Chapter 171: Just Want You, A Li

Di Jin's tall and straight build blocked that person completely solid.

Knowing he'd grown taller, but it seemed a bit too tall?

This back view is wider than Dad's.

Once again……

It faintly gave Shen Qingli the feeling she had when she first saw that statue.

Huge enough to stand between heaven and earth, as if able to shoulder everything;

Yet it was wickedly charming and unrestrained, not like any orthodox path.

Her Immortal-Demon Transmission is both righteous and demonic, not limited to immortal or demonic cultivation; strength alone is truth; it also does not care whether one loves all beings, for the Dao is impartial, only then can fairness prevail and all things operate without decay, and cultivation is the same.

Having no bias toward any power earns that power's acknowledgment; as long as it makes her stronger, everything becomes her supreme treasure.

These ideas……

If it were her previous life, Shen Qingli might not have truly understood them.

Especially before she awakened, her belief truly was benevolent love for all beings, immortal cultivation the proper path, demonic cultivation too extreme.

After all, she had a "mother" who instilled the idea of sacrifice from childhood; only after suffering utterly did she awaken.

Sometimes she also wonders, she identifies so strongly with the Immortal-Demon Transmission because of these experiences; what about her master? He must have originally been an immortal cultivator or a medical cultivator, later fell into demon, practicing both immortal and demonic cultivation—what did he endure?

"A Jin,"

Shen Qingli gazed at Di Jin at the end of the street, her steps unconsciously wanting to move forward.

Zhong Minglan called out, "Little beauty?"

Shen Qingli came to her senses, seeing her mother walking back over, asking, "What are you looking at?"

"A Jin." Shen Qingli looked toward the end of the street, "People from the Dao Palace have come for him; I'm a bit uneasy."

"What's there to worry about? He's such a big person." Shen Kuo frowned, "Don't bother him, let him handle it himself." If he can't handle it, strip him of his child fiancé status.

Earlier he had been quite troubled about A Jin's identity, but the child's mother was right—it's just adding one more person to the household, not marrying into the family, so whatever the Dao Palace's situation, there's no need to worry.

"Your father is right, he'll handle it himself; besides, he didn't ask for our help." Zhong Minglan stared that way, wanting to see who had come, but just as Shen Qingli couldn't see, neither could she.

"If there's really a need, he'll speak up himself." Zhong Minglan added, then it would be a case of soft mouths and short hands, easier to manipulate.

Shen Qingli didn't think so, but she felt Di Jin should also want to handle it himself; besides, being so close, if there truly was a need, he could simply call out; plus, there's Li Li.

Some things, if he still doesn't want her to know, then let him be.

Furthermore, Dad's right—he's already this big, likely also wanting to stand on his own.

"Let's go." Zhong Minglan took Shen Qingli's hand again, pulling her home.

At that moment, at the street's end, Nine Black had already covered its eyes with its paws, but its shiny black eyes still peeked through the dark fur, furtively looking out~

"Young Lord!" the arriver bowed down, face full of reverence.

Nine Black widened its eyes, then froze……

It clearly sensed that Di Jin beneath its feet had changed.

A wicked, unrestrained, matchless aura naturally emanated.

The kneeler shuddered instantly! Yet Nine Black could "see" that this was also a god!

Just this, and he's only a Young Lord? Nine Black didn't believe……

Look, this person hasn't uttered a word beneath its feet, yet the arriver comes trembling like a sieve, reporting everything: "Young Lord, I report! The pardon order—yes, the elders all agree, Your Majesty has been in seclusion too long, elders, elders,"

Even a god wiping sweat already doesn't know how to explain it—obvious! The elders' thoughts aren't proper; while some genuinely worry about the Dao Lord, others clearly hide other motives.

"Young Lord,"

The god who couldn't continue directly kowtowed.

"You should still come back?"

The pleading god also begged for the Dao to come.

"Go back?" Di Jin replied with a playful tone.

Nine Black's legs went weak, let alone the one beneath it.

"It's the subordinate who overstepped! Young Lord, calm your anger!"

The begging god was about to flop straight onto the ground, unable to stay kneeling!

How is the Young Lord's aura gotten even stronger? The Great Formless Realm isn't—hasn't it been closed again? The Young Lord hasn't entered it, has he?

"Do you know why only you recognize this lord?" As soon as Di Jin asked, that god really flopped down.

Nine Black was about to listen further, but Di Jin had already turned and left, leaving the kneeling god to suffocate on its own!

So, why is that!

Nine Black wants to know, super wants to~

"Meow~"

The soft and cute one let out a cry, looking at Di Jin.

Di Jin glanced at it, it immediately shrank its head, it didn't want to know!

If not said, then not said! What's the big deal, humph~

A Li will know sooner or later! It will also know.

And Di Jin, instead of looking at Nine Black, the superior's overwhelming presence, as he step by step walked back to Vermilion Bird Palace, gradually faded.

As he stepped onto the stairs, seeing Shen Qingli's back, his eyes dispersed the thick darkness, leaving only the youth's clear breeze and bright moon.

Nine Black looked up at him, as if understanding something, "Meow?"

Di Jin lowered his gaze, his thick lashes covering, "You really think you're a cat."

"Ow~" Nine Black scratched its ears, in front of him, it's nothing but a little cat, right?

What bad thoughts could a little cat have? Super obedient and super cute~

Di Jin snorted lightly, but his palm was gripping Jiuli's skull.

Jiuli instantly tensed! It felt like it was about to be pinched again.

But no, a whole set of fist techniques has also been transmitted into its mind!

"Taiji Yin-Yang Fist?" Jiuli's eyes widened!

It just knew that following this big shot, it wouldn't go wrong!

As expected! Hahahaha~

"Next time, flip over the turtle."

"Received!" Jiuli indicated it could do it!

After devouring so many black vines, its stored explosive power has become strong.

Moreover, it was innately compatible with Yin-Yang Taiji power, making it an innate He Dao physique that gets meals for free!

So, as long as it learns the fist technique, in its Burst Battle state it can truly resist a true god!

After all, the gods now are also recovering, and they haven't yet returned to their peak.

"In the future, I can teach A Li." Di Jin also said.

"You don't teach yourself?" Jiuli asked cutely.

"You're about to spill the beans; teach more and you'll really spill them."

Di Jin himself knew in his heart that his A Li was so smart, he guessed she'd figure it out soon.

However, he didn't intend to keep it hidden forever; he was just afraid that once she knew, she wouldn't be as close to him as she is now.

Master?

He certainly didn't want to be one.

Oh~

Jiuli held back laughter!

Just for fun!

Wait until A Li finds out, hehehe~

Nie!

Suddenly, Jiuli, whose throat was locked, felt like vomiting!

What the heck are you doing!

Jiuli rolled its eyes straight.

A Li.

Di Jin had already long-stridden after Shen Qingli, and offhandedly threw Jiuli over.

Shen Qingli immediately caught it, saying, "Finished talking? So fast?"

"Blasted back." Di Jin stepped forward, "I'm not going back anyway, I'll just follow you."

Shen Qingli helplessly said, "Your father doesn't want you anymore?"

"No." Di Jin said seriously, "I just want you."

This isn't a joke, after all...
