Chapter 392: Ashes: Di Hao, wake up, I'm a live-in husband

~8 min read 1,561 words

One of these two is precisely the Yuanwu True Lord, and the other is Di Hao.

Di Jin's brat was suddenly "abducted", and Di Hao, as his father, originally felt nothing about it.

But given that the Candle Monster insists it didn't steal food, while the Yuanwu True Lord insists it was the one who ate it!

Thus the two fought all over the Endless Abyss, thoroughly sweeping away Shen Que's aura without even noticing the hole (they'd broken too many holes), and still found no clue.

This caused Di Hao, who was stirred up again, to already be on the verge of rage.

But regardless of the facts, finding the brat first is the priority.

The Yuanwu True Lord now looks utterly dejected, saying, "You've seen it, right? This young lady is so busy—where would she find the time to sneak off with the Young Lord? She doesn't even have that ability, yet she has actually become the female sovereign revered by all races."

According to the Yuanwu True Lord's thinking, they should have actually taken the young lady along from the start! With this girl supervising, the Young Lord would surely not cause trouble.

Now it's done.

And now they've courted death again.

"She doesn't, you do."

Just those four words—Di Hao—made the Yuanwu True Lord break out in a cold sweat!

What? Him letting things slide isn't that obvious, is it?

No matter what, without evidence, he refuses to admit it!

"Then you really have a high opinion of your subordinate."

The Yuanwu True Lord spoke frankly, after all he indeed lacks that ability.

I also don't know how that little ant managed it, or rather how this young lady managed it.

The fact that Shen Que carries Shen Qingli's aura naturally cannot escape the Yuanwu True Lord's discerning eye; otherwise he wouldn't have let things slide.

Of course, his goal was still for Di Jin, who at that time gave him a feeling like a brief revival before death, and he feared the latter might truly die.

Since the young lady has come to rescue, she must have a way to save him, right?

The Yuanwu True Lord isn't certain, but it's still better than having no hope of rescue.

But Di Hao then said, "Human female sovereigns do not marry out."

This,

The Yuanwu True Lord stared blankly for a good while.

Indeed, that's true!

The primordial ancestor of the Huaxu clan, that is, the Human Ancestor, did not marry out either.

Thereafter, any female sovereign of the Huaxu clan who holds power will not marry out but will instead take in a live-in husband.

This is quite normal, after all, being a female sovereign means excellent lineage and strong ability; all those who bow at her feet would surely be willing to become live-in husbands.

But the Young Lord could never become a live-in husband…

Thus Di Hao snorted coldly, "He still wants to marry? Dream on."

Yet neither of them realizes that Di Jin himself was originally a live-in husband!

At this very moment—

His father-in-law is actually also quite worried.

His mother-in-law is the same; Zhong Minglan is practically speechless and heartbroken.

"He'll only accept it if it carries the aura of a lovely young lady—what kind of situation has this become, with villains all around?"

"I don't know." Shen Kuo also had a headache; at first he couldn't even treat it.

After trying for so long, he could only rely on the bloodline aura shared with A Li, slowly seeping healing power into the translucent white light cluster that Di Jin had shielded himself with.

But soon he discovered that, although his healing power was weak, it could trigger Di Jin's own powerful self-healing ability! That allowed him to relax.

But thinking about how this kid ended up like this, his daughter probably isn't doing well either, and he grew anxious again: "You little brat, when you married my daughter you swore you'd protect A Li. Now you're almost dead yourself—how can you protect her?"

These words, like a chicken-blood therapy, instantly "excited" Di Jin, greatly boosting his self-healing power and proving quite effective.

Shen Kuo: "……"

Zhong Minglan, on the other hand, had nothing to say.

Seeing that Di Jin could finally "accept" treatment, she relaxed a bit and went out to chat with Shen Que.

Three Pure Heavens.

Before the Huaxu Tombs.

After several attempts, Yin Zhi, Xiahou, and even Hetian all noticed a serious problem.

This space has been sealed off! They truly cannot instantly summon their own elite celestial divine army.

Actually, even if they really summoned them, would they truly fight? Impossible.

Right now, the morale of all races is high; rashly starting a fight might not win them victory, and the cost would outweigh the gain.

By this point, Yin Zhi Tianjun suddenly realized that the Shen Qingli who could previously be easily pinched to death by him had merely made a trip to the Huaxu Tombs, and in less than a month had already grown to this level.

Not to mention his acceptance of inadequacy.

Ji Yun Doumu and Yi Yuan Tianjun both felt deep sorrow.

"Yin Zhi, Xiahou, Hetian—you might really have gotten it wrong."

Yi Yuan Tianjun tried to smooth things over, after all he too is a celestial deity, and still doesn't want to lose face.

"As a Human Ancestor, Shen Qingli also inherited the Human Ancestor's legacy; surely she wouldn't lie—when she says she didn't kill, she really didn't."

"Not bad." Ji Yun Doumu also said, "If she really did such a thing, there's no need to deny it. She doesn't seem to want to sit down and make friends with you anyway; if she really killed, then she killed."

This is the fact!

Shen Qingli fundamentally has no need to curry favor with Yin Zhi and the other two.

She doesn't even care about being their enemy!

Even if she really had killed them, what would she have to fear admitting it?

The feud has come to this; there's no need.

We have come to this moment.

Yin Zhi and Xiahou actually also believed Shen Qingli's words.

Thus, strength equals authority.

However, they are already in a bind.

Shen Qingli stated again, "Come on, hand over your apology gifts, and I might let it slide depending on the situation."

"What more apology gifts do you want? At most I'll give you an apology! We didn't do anything—it's just a confrontation." And Tian Dou Mother sneered, adding, "Although what Ji Yun said for you makes sense, you also have no evidence proving you didn't kill."

"What if I do?" Shen Qingli said teasingly.

Tian Dou Mother was slightly stunned—how could that be?

Everyone involved in this plot, even her own clansmen, has already been silenced.

Where does Shen Qingli get her evidence?

"Shao Guang said it outright."

"If you really have it, why waste so much breath with us?"

Tian Dou Mother was certain Shen Qingli could not possibly have evidence.

Yin Zhi and Xiahou also clearly understood her words!

Regardless, as long as Shen Qingli truly cannot prove her innocence, it's not up to them to apologize.

"Just by talking, you can't be absolved; even if you are now the leader of the Twelve Provinces of Kyushu, you can't turn black into white! For now, we can let you go, but if we wait until we find concrete evidence, this matter will be pursued to the end." Yin Zhi stated.

After his words, he glanced at Xiahou and said, "Let's go."

However, "Without my order, I doubt any of you can leave."

Shen Qingli didn't indulge them; the Pangu pupil's light blazed forth with immense radiance, as if it held the energy to strike these two dead directly.

"You dare to strike us?" Xiahou Tianjun didn't believe it.

"Go ahead and try." Shen Qingli replied coldly.

Xiahou actually tried; he was certain Shen Qingli wouldn't dare.

But he was wrong.

No need for Shen Qingli.

"Slap!"

His face also got a slap.

Same as Tian Dou Mother's.

But he lost more face than Tian Dou Mother.

After all, he was just hit earlier, and only insiders saw it.

Now, the Twelve Provinces of Kyushu and myriad races—all are watching.

"Ha!"

Ancestor Tianqing laughed.

The Twelve Provinces of Kyushu are also holding back laughter.

"I advise you one last thing: don't give face and then be shameless."

Shen Qingli doesn't indulge! What's wrong with slapping faces publicly? To dare act shamelessly, getting slapped is only natural.

Xiahou Tianjun's face grew so dark it seemed water could drip; he also got serious: "I can apologize, even offer compensation, but you must prove! You really didn't kill Xia Yuan and Xia Pu. Otherwise, let's go to war."

Upon these words...

Tian Dou Mother was satisfied!

She also added, "Not bad! Humiliating us warrants a price."

"Shen Qingli, produce the evidence, and we can talk. If you can't, you can't kill us, but everyone here must at least die here." Yin Zhi also got serious.

After all, they are the clan chiefs of the Heavenly God race!

What a proud existence.

How could we tolerate public face-slapping humiliation?

But this is the result Shen Qingli wanted.

She also didn't waste more words: "One word, it's set."

Then, she gave out Tian Dou Mother's memory.
