Chapter 239: with translation of chapter title

~9 min read 1,777 words

Di Er also handed over the marriage alliance letter, which he had been forced to draft; it was polite, humble, and courteous.

Di Er

While copying it, he actually also had a tacit understanding with Jialuona, as if seeking to marry into the family.

Jialuona

So he really couldn't bring himself to say it, and had already handed it to Zhong Minglan; after all, he could sense her.

Zhong Minglan

"What the hell is this?" Zhong Minglan exclaimed, and heaven knows she's about to blow up!

- Already have Zhong Minglan.

That said, as soon as she came out, she saw the so-called betrothal gifts and fell silent for a moment.

- No new names.

Shen Kuo also appeared, took the marriage alliance letter from her hand, and upon flipping through it, he began to frown.

Shen Kuo

The writing is full of a little rascal's style.

- No names.

"What do you mean?" Shen Kuo raised his eyes and asked.

- Shen Kuo.

Shen Qingli had already come over and

- Shen Qingli.

Holy Buddha, she knows! It could be A Jin.

The term "Holy Buddha" is a title, not a personal name, so it should be translated; "A Jin" is a nickname for Di Jin and should be romanized.

Upon seeing this, she became even more convinced.

- No names.

What marriage alliance document? It's all——

- No names.

I want to marry into your family, take me with you, don't forget me.

- No names.

It's similar to that meaning; anyway, Shen Qingli thinks so.

- Shen Qingli.

Zhong Minglan also now sensed a hint of Di Jin's thick-skinned nature.

Zhong Minglan and Di Jin are mentioned; Di Jin is already in the glossary.

She looked at Shen Qingli, and all she could think was, "This scoundrel toyed with the true Holy Buddha and replaced him?"

Shen Qingli and the Holy Buddha have already been mentioned.

Shen Qingli said, "No way!"

Why rush to the Holy Court? Isn't it just for verification?

The term "Holy Court" refers to the institution and should be translated.

Moreover, she worried that Di Jin would let things take their natural course.

- Di Jin.

"That's what you see," Di Er said, not wanting to elaborate.

- Di Er.

Shen Kuo pressed his lips and said, "If I, as the lord,"

- Shen Kuo.

Di Er was just waiting for Shen Kuo to refuse!

- Di Er, Shen Kuo.

He cannot defy the Holy Buddha!

- Holy Buddha.

But the Kunlun God Lord can!

The term "Kunlun God Lord" is a title and should be translated.

However——

- No names.

Dad.

- "Dad" generic, not a name.

Shen Qingli grabbed Shen Kuo's sleeve.

- Shen Qingli, Shen Kuo.

Seeing his daughter clutch his sleeve, Shen Kuo felt his heart turn cold.

- Shen Kuo.

He knew that as soon as that little rascal arrived, his daughter would be led astray.

- No names.

The old father's heart felt heavy.

- No names.

Meanwhile, Di Er opposite him had his heart leaping to his throat.

- Di Er.

As for Shen Qingli, she had already looked his way and said, "Long time no see, Earth Guardian."

Shen Qingli and the title "Earth Guardian" should be translated.

"Well, well," Di Er said, his scalp tingling; this little girl surely won't agree.

- Di Er.

As for the marriage alliance, it's not impossible; I'll first accept your betrothal gifts.

- No names.

The first half of Shen Qingli's statement gave Di Er a bit of hope, but the second half made his heart feel chilly.

- Shen Qingli, Di Er.

You Holy Buddha said it yourself—whether I agree or not, give me all of this.

- Holy Buddha.

"Right," Di Er wanted to say, "Why don't you show some backbone?"

- Di Er.

Then I'll accept it.

- No names.

Shen Qingli raised her hand, and amidst Di Er's anguish, she accepted all the betrothal gifts!

- Shen Qingli, Di Er.

Seeing this, Cang Pei could no longer sit still, saying, "A Li, you're short-handed."

The name "Cang Pei" should be romanized, and "A Li" is already in the glossary.

Shen Qingli ignored him, thinking, "This is A Jin's bride price—how could I not take it?"

- Shen Qingli, A Jin.

No, the suffering A Jin endured wasn't for nothing; to her, this is still far from enough!

- A Jin.

Seeing Shen Qingli already accept all the betrothal gifts, Cang Cong grew suspicious and sent a mental message to Cang Pei: "God Sovereign, God Princess, is this preparing to reject you?"

The name "Cang Cong" should be romanized; "God Sovereign" and "God Princess" are titles and should be translated.

Besides that, Cang Cong could think of no other possibility.

- Cang Cong.

Although the Holy Court's betrothal gifts are lavish, the God Sovereign's preparations are not much different.

- Holy Court, God Sovereign.

Furthermore, Shen Goddess and the Holy Court Holy Buddha have never even met—how could they agree to this?

The term "Shen Goddess" is a title and should be translated; "Holy Court Holy Buddha" combines two titles and should be translated as such.

The Kunlun God Lord and the Vermilion Bird Empress seem unwilling to refuse, and this is likely aimed at the God Sovereign.

- Kunlun God Lord, Zhu Que Nu Di (glossary), God Sovereign.

Cang Pei obviously thought the same, his face turning cold as he sent a mental message to Shen Kuo: "God Lord, even if you don't want to betroth A Li to me, why provoke those outsiders? A Li taking these gifts will likely entangle her with the Holy Court in the future."

- Cang Pei, Shen Kuo, A Li, Holy Court.

Shen Kuo glanced at him; although he was unhappy with the little rascal's method of luring her away, compared to Cang Pei, the hypocrite, the little rascal was still more pleasing to the eye.

- Shen Kuo, Cang Pei.

"Don't worry about it," Shen Kuo replied directly.

- Shen Kuo.

At this moment, Shen Qingli had already turned her gaze to Di Er.

- Shen Qingli, Di Er.

"Then there's nothing else; I'll go back to report."

- No names.

"No rush."

- No names.

"What instructions does the God Princess have?"

The term "God Princess" is a title and should be translated.

"Come here."

- No names.

Shen Qingli beckoned.

- Shen Qingli.

Di Er was filled with exasperation.

- Di Er.

After all, he is a Dharma Protector God, an existence of the Eternity Realm!

The term "Dharma Protector God" is a title and should be translated; "Eternity Realm" is a cultivation level and should be translated.

This little girl is really rude to him...

- No names.

But there was nothing he could do; he still went over.

Dad, help us soundproof.

Sure. Shen Kuo always obliged.

Shen Qingli then pulled over the fidgety Di Er.

What are you doing, goddess? Don't try to scam me, or I'll blame you when you lie down later.

You know about scamming too! Jiu Li laughed.

If you get scammed, it's your own fault." Shen Qingli sneered, "Last time you tied me up, did you ever think I'd become your lady of the house?"

Ah this..." Di Er's forehead filled with more black lines, "You actually agreed! That's your brother, your brother!"

We're not blood-related." Shen Qingli got the answer she wanted without a trace, secretly relieved, "I want to see him."

Impossible!" Di Er exclaimed, "You're not supposed to be going to war—how could you have time to meet?"

I'm seeing my brother—why are you anxious?" Shen Qingli sized up Di Er, "Did you do something to my brother?"

I wouldn't dare!" Di Er felt wronged; they could only be crushed by the Holy Buddha, not daring to have any petty thoughts, and began to miss the former young lord.

Truly, this one who came from the Great Formless Realm is becoming more and more unlike what they expected—it's making people anxious and flustered.

Then I want to see him.

Impossible!

Di Er insisted, and explained—

You're on the battle roster; the Holy See couldn't possibly let you in.

He, Tian Yi, and Jialuona with great difficulty sent that person into seclusion, just to prevent the two from possibly meeting.

Although they were certain, the Holy Buddha must have let go of past dust, having no attachments! A marriage alliance must have some other deep meaning.

But what if? If a thunderbolt from heaven and fire from earth really came together…

I'm telling you, just focus on the battle; we can talk after. After all, your brother is also in seclusion, with no time to see you.

If you won't let me see him, I might still manage. Look at that fellow down there—your Dharma Prince—I don't think he's of one mind with you." Shen Qingli lifted her chin, gesturing toward Zong Jue.

Di Er just wanted to curse, "Stupid thing!"

What damn thing, daring to act behind the Holy Buddha's back.

But hey, not bad either!

Di Er felt a stir inside and said, "You've figured it out."

Hmm?" Shen Qingli raised an eyebrow.

The Holy See is divided into the Holy Hall and the Political Court.

Go on.

Di Er felt a bit uneasy—after all, he was a Dharma Protector!

In front of the Holy Buddha it's fine, but why do I feel a little lower in status before Shen Qingli?

But thinking of the plan just forming in his mind, he endured the discomfort and explained it slowly.

The Holy Hall where the Holy Buddha resides—that's us; we focus on cultivation and are immensely strong.

The Political Court split off from the Holy Hall, consisting of those better at managing the Holy See's affairs.

The Holy Buddha—your brother—still can't fully control the Political Court; these stubborn losers now revere that fool downstairs as their King Sovereign. Among them is also an Eternal Ancient Realm god, the Regent King of the Political Court holding things up.

So?" Shen Qingli narrowed her eyes, calm as an ancient well.

Di Er had been observing her, yet couldn't fathom her thoughts.

You can get closer to Zong Jue and meet the Regent King.

Then?

Di Er's mood was a bit complicated; he still wanted to lead that little girl by the nose.

As a result, he kept being led around…

Make him submit to the Holy Buddha, and it'll help your brother resolve his urgent crisis.

His urgent crisis?

Not bad. Though your brother is already the Holy Buddha of our sect, if he can't fully unify the doctrine, he'll suffer backlash.
