Chapter 304 The Treacherous Minister Kunpeng
Di Jun was devastated and on the verge of collapse. The demon race, which he and Tai Yi had fought together to defeat, was now being described by Tai Yi as rotten.
When Emperor Jun finished reading the memorial word by word, the evidence was irrefutable and irrefutable, which was like a wake-up call.
Di Jun was completely stunned. Those people who were once so familiar were now so rotten that he didn't even recognize them. Just to break through a realm that hadn't changed in several eons, they even harmed their blood relatives. They had truly gone mad and were beyond redemption.
“Brother,” Taiyi subtly nudged Dijun, “we should let go of what’s past. The Demon Emperor is a thing of the past. The three of us—you, my son, and my brothers—are the closest of kin under heaven. No one else can compare.”
Chang Hao turned his back. If he wanted to subtly intimidate the prehistoric world, the best strategy was to maintain integrity and govern with virtue, while the worst strategy was to use force to govern.
If one's conduct is not upright, misfortunes will arise one after another, without end.
"It's been a long time since we brothers have shared a drink together. By the grace of heaven, we are reunited. Tonight, let's drink until we're drunk."
“Come on, big brother, this way…” Taiyi half-dragged and half-pulled the dazed Dijun out, nodded to Changhao, indicating that he would properly comfort Dijun about this matter.
Taiyi lowered his eyes to hide the reluctance in his gaze. His elder brother was different from him; he had deep feelings for the demon race that he had created. To change his mind, he needed to be guided slowly.
Seeing the Demon Emperor being dragged away from Taiwei Palace by Donghuang, Kunpeng immediately went limp, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, almost scared to death.
"Kunpeng, is the matter finished?" Chang Hao was happy to see that Taiyi had taken over the trouble.
"Your Majesty, you can rest assured that I, the humble god, have handled this matter with utmost care," Kunpeng said, his actions swift, decisive, and ruthless, showing no mercy whatsoever, leaving no one involved unpunished. "Your Majesty, what about the Water Virtue Star Lord?"
"I'll reward you." Chang Hao wasn't one to speak carelessly. He immediately unfolded the Investiture of the Gods and wrote Kunpeng on it.
Kunpeng immediately went over, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his real name was indeed listed under the Water Virtue Star Lord. He glanced at the name under the Righteous God of Fuqing and was about to take a closer look when Chang Hao had already put away the Investiture of the Gods.
“Go ahead, but avoid Di Jun for now. He’s in a bad mood right now. If you suffer a loss, it’ll be for nothing, understand?” This was the only conscience Chang Hao had left.
Kunpeng's expression instantly turned bitter. "This humble god understands. Thank you for the reminder, Your Majesty."
Even though he couldn't die, he was being beaten half to death every day, which was also very agonizing. He decided to go back to Beiming to avoid the limelight.
It wasn't just the Demon Emperor's threat; the great demons of the Heavenly Court were also glaring at him with venomous eyes, practically ready to gang up on him.
Kunpeng only needs to think about how all the Quasi-Saints and powerful beings would display their supernatural abilities and then reveal his past remarks in Taiwei Palace. Although he is also a veteran Quasi-Saint, he really can't withstand being outnumbered.
Chang Hao tossed a Xuanming Pearl to Kunpeng, saying, "You did a good job this time." More importantly, he didn't betray Di Jun in the face of Di Jun's coercion, which showed he knew his place. "Keep up the good work in the future."
He wouldn't trouble two masters with one matter; from then on, the treacherous minister by his side would be Kunpeng.
Kunpeng was surprised by the unexpected joy. The innate spiritual treasure, the Xuanming Pearl, was more suitable for him than the Dinghai Divine Pearl. This time, he hid back in Beiming and could refine it.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Kunpeng's grumbling disappeared. Anyone who said His Majesty was unfair would be making trouble for Kunpeng from now on.
Kunpeng was unaware that he had been completely tamed; the once unruly Kunpeng had vanished into the river of time.
"Go." Chang Hao glanced at Kunpeng's swollen and bruised face, unable to bear to look any longer; Kunpeng had truly suffered.
"Yes." Kunpeng covered his face and left. After leaving, it would be several hundred years before Kunpeng dared not appear in the Heavenly Court, in front of Emperor Jun, or in front of his colleagues.
"Your Majesty," Lingzhuzi couldn't help but jump out as soon as Kunpeng left, "who was that fierce-looking person?"
He actually kicked down the door! His arrogance is outrageous! Once he reaches the peak of his cultivation, I'll definitely give him a good beating and teach him a lesson for daring to be disrespectful to His Majesty.
"He is the Ziwei Emperor. You should avoid him in the future. You'll only suffer if you face him." Chang Hao looked Ling Zhuzi up and down. This was the proper way to dress. Even Si Rong had to applaud Chang Hao's aesthetic sense.
The Empress is really being ridiculous. She dressed Wudang up like a boy, while Lingzhuzi wore pink instead. Doesn't Lingzhuzi care about her dignity?
Lingzhuzi misunderstood Chang Hao's words. "The Great Emperor Ziwei, is it? Just you wait."
Chang Hao was unaware that he had inadvertently provoked a troublemaker for Di Jun. He put a diamond bracelet on each of Ling Zhuzi's hands and a gold necklace around her neck, and a spirited young general was born.
Chang Hao was quite satisfied. "Not bad, not bad. Si Rong, go down and prepare a few more sets of fairy clothes for Nezha, following this style."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Si Rong accepted the order and withdrew, only to encounter Xi He. "Greetings, Goddess of the Sun."
Xihe nodded, indicating that Si Rong could do as she pleased, and then hurriedly approached Taiwei Palace.
"Xiao Shi, I heard Di Jun has acted recklessly? Where is he? I won't let him get away with this." Xi He looked around. Where is he?
It wasn't easy for Xiao Shi to clean up Di Jun's mess; he sacrificed so much of his own life. Di Jun really deserved a beating.
For Xihe, this is a new beginning. She has let go of everything from the past. Now, her biggest worry is Xiao Shi.
Ling Zhuzi gasped. Wasn't that the Demon Queen? Oh no! Ling Zhuzi quietly retreated, his eyes darting around. The large table was far away from him. He should have just crawled under the table earlier.
"Mother, don't be angry. Dijun was taken away by Taiyi. Taiyi will bring him to his senses." Chang Hao hugged Xihe's arm. "Mother, if you have free time, go to Kunlun Mountain more often. Ninth Brother and the others must miss you."
"Xiao Jiu and the others miss their mother, but don't you miss your mother? Is it because your mother comes so often that you find her annoying?" Xi He and Di Jun were on high alert, determined to prevent Yuan Shi from taking any chances.
But Di Jun… Xi He’s flawless, gentle smile twisted into a sinister grin for a moment. She clenched her fist inwardly, thinking, “Just you wait, she’s more trouble than she’s worth.”
"No, how could that be?" Chang Hao denied it outright. "No matter how upset Father Emperor is, all my troubles disappear when I see Mother Empress."
"You're just trying to fool me," Xihe's heart was already completely biased. "Dijun has made a mistake. Don't worry about it. Your mother will handle it."
"Thank you, Mother. It's so good to have you." Chang Hao didn't refuse Xi He's kindness; Di Jun was no longer a threat.
"Nezha, come and greet the Goddess of the Sun." Chang Hao beckoned Lingzhuzi to come out. Why hide? The more you hide, the more suspicious you become. Just come out openly.
"What's this? Little Ten, when did your Taiwei Palace get a child?" Xihe finally noticed the spirit pearl hiding in the corner. Why did she feel like she had seen it before?
Lingzhuzi slowly emerged from the corner. Chang Hao secretly patted Lingzhuzi on the shoulder. He stood tall and proud, unrecognizable to Xihe.
