Chapter 460

"Father, although I am already pregnant, I have not lost my combat ability, so don't use me as an excuse." Shen Qingli respectfully had him place Di Jin properly beforehand, yet she didn't frown or glare.

And her single utterance of "Father" also left Di Hao silent for a moment; Di Jin had never called him father since childhood, which naturally relates to his own issues, so there's nothing to say.

In his view, he also wouldn't have much father-son affection with Di Jin.

One day, the little brat will replace him; that is both what he wishes and what he is fostering.

Therefore, they cannot possibly have father-son feelings; otherwise, how could they act in earnest?

"Let's sit down and talk." Shen Qingli took out a table and chairs from the Primordial Spirit Realm.

Jiu Li moreover thoughtfully prepared water for the father and son...

It also knew not to pit Shen Qingli, saying, "A Li has a baby, can't drink cold stuff, you guys drink."

Di Jin glanced at it, and it jumped down from the table, clinging to Shen Qingli's legs, looking all "I'm so well-behaved."

Di Hao didn't think much, and at that moment he took a sip of water to suppress his fire, and ended up tasting a fishy flavor? But it was indeed full of spiritual energy, with a sweet aftertaste.

"You came to look for Mother Nuwa, right? Is she still alive, or is she being controlled by the Kirin Lord?" Shen Qingli asked bluntly upon opening the door.

Upon hearing this, although Di Hao's expression didn't change, he crushed the cup in his hand, showing that his inner turmoil was not as calm as his outward appearance.

"Lay out the situation clearly, don't hide anything. Your lack of ability doesn't mean I lack it. Now everyone in the Taiqing Dian is comprehending the Dao; perhaps in the near future, we can all break free from the Taiqing Dian." Di Jin stated this bluntly.

Upon hearing this, Di Hao's face didn't show much joy, but he finally sighed, "Come with me."

Di Jin frowned, wanting to scold; at this point, still playing mysterious? He hated this old fogey's act.

Shen Qingli, however, grabbed his sleeve and glanced at him.

Di Jin, taking the opportunity, slipped his long fingers through hers and held her hand.

Shen Qingli couldn't shake him off no matter how she tried, so she could only let him hold her hand; besides, his sleeve was wide, so it wasn't very noticeable.

The group of people and beasts then proceeded through the Kirin Lord's dim, jade-green lair, resembling the den of a yin-evil cavern, occasionally seeing the Kirin Lord's soft, sprawling vines.

Jiu Li bared its teeth; each time it tried to take a bite, Yu Jia snatched it up with a claw, preventing it from startling the snake.

Although the Kirin Lord had been severely wounded and fallen back into a stupor, it wasn't dead yet! Biting it in its lair isn't that just provoking it to forcibly awaken?

Moreover, this is after all someone else's lair; even if it's unconscious, that doesn't mean it's safe—there must be autonomous defensive prohibitions and such.

"Eat anything, and you'll die." Yu Jia scolded.

Shen Que had already joined in the mockery: "Exactly! So fat and still eating eating eating!"

"Hmph!" Jiu Li tucked in its paws, following beside Shen Qingli's leg, "Since we're here, we might as well eat; Xi Xi won't let me suck a few bites, nor let me bite the Kirin Lord—how domineering!"

Shen Que practically wanted to beat it to death, shouting, "Call me Shen Que!"

"Xi Xi!"

"Shen Que!"

"Xi Xi!"

"..."

The two little ones bickering made the dark, evil cavern look like a playground.

Di Hao glanced at the two little ones, also not expecting his daughter-in-law's beast to be so noisy, just like Yuan Wu.

As for the leader...

Di Hao glanced at the formidable figure, hands clasped over chest, striding forward with head held high, appearing very steady—a humanoid version of Jiu Ying—and nodded.

There was also that youngster in full silver armor, wielding a silver spear, bringing up the rear—not bad either.

As for Yu Jia, he actually seemed a bit unclear.

With Di Hao's eyesight, he naturally recognized Yu Jia's current true form; what he couldn't fathom was the aura on Yu Jia's body that actually originated from the ancient vicissitudes of the vast sea and mulberry fields.

But before he could inquire, Di Jin asked him, "Your body is still usable, huh?"

Di Hao: "..." Not mentioning it is fine; bringing it up just makes him angry!

"You're doing this on purpose!" Di Hao scorned, "Childish!"

They actually depicted him so ugly, not even one ten-thousandth of a deity's statue; he still has to find a statue to possess himself.

Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to meet his wife; it's simply unbearable to look at.

"What do you mean, on purpose?" Jiu Li, too busy fighting to argue, immediately asked curiously.

Di Hao glanced at it, said nothing, and instead quickened his pace!

Jiu Li also didn't indulge him: "If you won't say, then you won't say—what's so miraculous about it? We A Li are broad-minded, but I'm petty! If I were to speak, I shouldn't bother with this old fogey."

Just thinking about that old fogey speaking with eyes open before the Taiqing Dian, causing A Li and her childhood husband to be forced apart, makes it angry!

Hmph!

A Li doesn't remember!

So she bears no grudge against that old fogey!

But it remembers everything!

And Di Jin, who held a grudge just like it, at that time seized it by the throat and lifted it up.

"Huh~"

Jiu Li's heart broke.

Could it be that it's not allowed to call him a scumbag father?

As a result, Di Jin sent it to a lush patch of Kirin Lord vines, saying, "Eat up."

Jiu Li's eyes welled with tears, really wanting to say: "Why don't you open your eyes and see where you've locked me? How am I supposed to eat?"

"Come this way." The leading Di Hao, however, said.

Shen Qingli already sensed a change at the end, and immediately grabbed Di Jin, quickening her pace to catch up.

Di Jin then tossed the little Jiu Li onto the vines, letting it eat first.

But compared to munching on fragrant black vines, Jiu Li obviously preferred melons, and sprinted to catch up.

"What are you looking at?" Nine Li squeezed out from beside Shen Qingli's leg, and at a glance saw a scene so shocking it left it speechless.

Shen Qingli even more tightly gripped Di Jin's hand! After a long while, after a long while, she then asked: "Is what's wrapped in that three-colored spirit mist the Three Pure World? These vines are all the Qilin Lord's tentacles,"

What kind of scene is this? Using Nine Li's words to describe it: "The Three Pure World is like a tiny pill, and the Qilin Lord's true form is simply thousands upon thousands of times larger than it!"

A single black vine could snap it apart; the black vines we saw earlier were just tiny hairs on the main vine! My heavens, what an apocalyptic sight!

Nine Li plopped down onto the ground.

To be honest, its legs feel a bit weak.

What is this like?

Earth is shrouded by myriad giant vines, lying in wait to devour.

Moreover, these black vines hide in the dark universe, invisible to ordinary people!

Nine Li felt that at least one needed to be a Heavenly Purity Realm expert! Only with its current cultivation could it see.

Shen Qingli could do so entirely because she possesses the Coiling Ancestor Pupil…

"Swish!"

A huge vine swept over at this very moment!

Obviously it sensed their intrusion.

Even though the Qilin Lord's true form hasn't awakened, its main vine still possesses tremendous attacking power!

This strike is clearly a hundred times stronger than that sword earlier against the Heaven Fighting Mother!

It was about to sweep Shen Qingli's group into dust! But—

"Yin Extreme!"

"Yang Rising."

Shen Qingli and Di Jin's voices rose simultaneously.

With their tightly clasped hands as the starting point.

That primordial yin-yang diagram reappeared, even clearer and more distinct than before!
