Chapter 459: Fulfill the Husband's Duty — This Time, I'll Accompany Her
Because, everything is His.
He himself has erased it.
Now people have even gradually equated the human ancestor with the Huaxu clan, not the Nüwa clan.
Only someone like Zhan Yuefeng, who once was the head of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, would know the true history preserved by special power.
All this has been leisurely recounted by Imperial Yue Sovereign, and at the end she gave her conjecture: 'Young Lord, I personally think——
The Emperor Sovereign has never treated you well, and constantly severed karma with the Three Pure Ones; the reason may also be related to the Dao Mother erasing her own existence. As for the specifics, I really don't know.
The old sovereign, having spoken sincerely, looked at Di Jin, thinking he could see his emotions stirred.
After all, in the old sovereign's view, this father and son seem to be opposing each other, but in fact they both care about each other.
However, there was none.
Di Jin's point, however, lies——
"Heh! That old thing, eating tender grass like an old ox, still nitpicks me."
"?"
"?"
Shen Qingli and the old sovereign both had the look of 'You're not sick, are you?'
"Alright, I understand, you may step back." Di Jin waved at the old sovereign again.
Old sovereign: "... Then you have no thoughts?"
Di Jin glanced at her, and she grudgingly stepped back.
Whether to speak or not, after the Young Lord suddenly became powerful, he gave her an even greater sense of oppression than the Emperor Sovereign did.
Forget it, blame her for talking too much; hurry off to contemplate the Dao.
But once she stepped back, Shen Qingli exposed Di Jin: 'Are you afraid she'll delay her Dao contemplation?'
"Or maybe sister understands me." Di Jin replied, leaning his head against Shen Qingli as he spoke.
Shen Qingli pushed him away impatiently: "Come on, what's the plan?"
"Of course we have to go fetch that old thing." Di Jin never really intended to let Emperor Hao stay alone in the Qilin Lord's lair.
Moreover, his idea is the same as Shen Qingli's: the Qilin Lord must be completely eradicated! Otherwise, wouldn't that be betraying the sacrifice of his deceased mother?
At this moment, Shen Qingli instead embraced his head, gazing into his eyes and asking, 'Are you sad?'
Di Jin grasped her wrist, but shook his head: 'We've never met, never been close; I just treat it as a story to hear.'
Shen Qingli observed carefully, confirmed he wasn't lying, and nodded reassured: 'It's good that you think that way.'
"Otherwise?"
"Afraid you'd feel wronged, thinking your mother doesn't want you. She acts for all beings in the world, yet never considers that you too are one of those beings."
Shen Qingli asked herself, if she were that person, she couldn't do this! Especially since she herself has suffered enough from lacking a mother's protection.
She saw Di Jin's situation, and it was no better for her.
She is also pregnant now.
Putting herself in others' shoes, she doesn't care about the Three Pure Ones' world at all.
She now possesses a true Primordial Spirit Realm, able to bring those she cares into her own small world; even if she must sacrifice the greatest source of her power for it, she doesn't mind.
But to have her sacrifice herself for the sake of all beings in the world, especially scum like Yin Zhi and Xiahou, causing her child to be born motherless—no way!
What right do they have?
So, she actually feels indignant on Di Jin's behalf.
Di Jin felt it, and instantly leapt up with joy.
"But I have a sister who needs me. Other than that, I fear nothing."
This is Di Jin's sincere words: whether it's the newly learned Nüwa clan or Emperor Hao, whom he's opposed for so long, he doesn't care whether they truly love him; he just wants to understand some things.
Now, he has figured out some things, but not all.
He still needs to know more, after all, he must ensure his wife and child are safe in Chang'an; only then can this world be well.
However, his words caused Shen Qingli's heart to faintly ache; she recalled that she once felt the same, not caring whether her parents loved her, and became fearless.
Because she never felt even a trace of love from them, that's why she became fearless.
Shen Qingli instantly embraced Di Jin, promising: 'Yes, you have a sister who needs you, and Xiao Xiao Li needs you too.'
Di Jin stared blankly……
That little creature, which had been quiet for a long time, immediately became lively~
"Go~"
Xiao Xiao Li!
It's me~
The little thing that seemed to respond, so lively it made Di Jin involuntarily chuckle.
He unconsciously placed his hand on Shen Qingli's abdomen, feeling the little creature's joy.
"Does it often bother you like this?" Di Jin asked softly.
Shen Qingli shook her head; a certain little one instantly stilled.
Di Jin chuckled: "Can you little brat still understand?"
The little creature kept blowing bubbles! It's not a fool, so how could it not understand?
"This little brat is fun." Di Jin said, lowering his head to Shen Qingli's abdomen to listen closely.
As expected, the little creature's tender 'dad, dad' voice appeared again, but over and over it was just that sound, nothing else.
"Can you little brat say something else?" Di Jin asked through his belly.
"......" The silence was that of the five-month-old Xiao Xiao Li at this moment.
Shen Qingli also didn't know what the two were communicating, but she said, "The little one's still young, what can they say? Being this healthy and active is already super impressive, really great!"
Some little one immediately puffed up with pride; as long as Mom doesn't dislike it, that's fine~
Who cares about Dad! Lazy-worm Dad, always sleeping, lazy worm.
The contemptuous intent was obvious! Even without forming words, Di Jin could sense it, leaving him laughing and crying at once.
"Alright, let's go." Shen Qingli didn't want to delay.
Although they had previously used that strange power to heavily wound the Kirin Lord, the enemy surely wasn't dead yet; they needed to take advantage of its weakness, go over and finish it off, and at the same time bring Di Hao back.
Di Jin had no objection, already rose and left the hall together with Shen Qingli.
Jiu Li immediately ran over, looking left and right, "All good?"
Just as Di Jin was about to act, Shen Qingli hugged it to her chest, then looked toward Yu Jia and the others, "Jia,"
"None of us will stay behind; Taiqing Dian is very safe, Shen Kuo and Empress Zhong won't be in danger here, we'll go with you." Yu Jia cut off Shen Qingli's words, wisely guessing that the couple would definitely go do something big.
"Right!"
"Right!"
Whether Jiu Ying, Xiao Bai, or Shen Que, they all agreed.
Di Jin also said, "This place is indeed safe; the last gap has already been sealed by us just now, moreover, we are over there, how could we let Lin Jun come over?"
Shen Qingli pondered, that's also true.
But she still set up protective wards for her parents, who were sitting cross-legged at the hall gate, comprehending the Dao.
Di Jin, seeing this, added another ward.
However, when they arrived at their destination and saw Di Hao, his eyes almost bulged out.
"What kind of look do you have, you dead old man?" Jiu Li now isn't afraid of Di Hao, after all, the opponent is weak!
Di Hao said angrily, "Driving you back is just to tell you not to come again; you really don't listen to a word."
"As long as you know." Di Jin was even more displeased, "That dead old man is incapable of success but more than enough for failure."
"You—" Di Hao felt his heart clench, then resigned, ultimately only able to say pleadingly, "Even if we consider that this time we didn't actually kill you and saved you, hurry up and take your wife back; don't you think she's still pregnant, why are you still coming?"
Previously, he not only bore the responsibility of Taiqing Dian, but his life and death were also tied to the Three Pure Worlds.
Now that Taiqing and the Three Pure Worlds have changed masters, he can finally fulfill his husbandly duties and come to keep her company.
