Chapter 156 Golden Crow Patrols the Sky
"Tell me the specifics of how to proceed?" Di Jun was eager to try. He could gain merit and rule the prehistoric world. Only a fool wouldn't do such a good thing.
Fuxi: "Let the little princes replace the sun star to give light and warmth to the earth. In this way, the princes will save countless lives and accumulate merit."
The ten princes can take turns ascending to heaven, which allows for rotation and avoids the need to constantly suppress the True Fire of the Sun. Doing so in the long run would be detrimental to their cultivation. Furthermore, circling the primordial world allows for the calculation of celestial timing—a triple benefit.
If Di Jun doesn't agree, then Fu Xi has no choice but to let his sister worry about it herself.
“The essence of the sun is not hidden even if the sun star is concealed, and the demon race can cultivate without hindrance. The princes can patrol the sky in place of the sun star…” Di Jun’s eyes grew brighter as he thought about it, and he clapped his hands and laughed, “Fu Xi, I hereby grant your permission. The princes shall patrol the sky to determine the timing of the heavens.”
As soon as Di Jun finished speaking, Heaven bestowed a massive amount of merit, giving one-tenth to Di Jun and Fu Xi who devised the plan, and the remaining nine-tenths equally among the ten little golden crows.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. On behalf of the human race, Fuxi thanks Your Majesty for your benevolence." Fuxi was overjoyed that something he thought would be difficult to accomplish had been achieved so easily. The merit meant that the benefits outweighed the drawbacks, and now he could give an explanation to his sister and the Demon Emperor.
However, Di Jun forgot one thing, which is why he is now smiling bitterly as Xi He pinches his soft flesh and dares not make a sound.
Changxi's eyes pierced Dijun like knives. This father was too ruthless. How could he have the nerve to give his nephew a divine position at such a young age?
Is it still forced buying and selling? What? If someone neglects their duties or misses the appointed time, will the Emperor punish them according to the Heavenly Rules?
Taiyi, assessing his nephew's stamina, patted Xiaoshi's head and asked, "Can you keep going? If not, let your brothers take turns flying for you."
Xiao Shi glanced at his mischievous older brothers, "Uncle, who will fly for whom?"
If these sworn brothers truly loved each other, he wouldn't be the first one standing here; he was just pushed out.
Taiyi patted Xiaoshi comfortingly. As a younger brother, especially when the younger brother is very sensible, he sometimes has to be more tolerant of his older brothers' occasional unreliability and support them.
"Yaya, your father has full confidence in you. You are no longer the Yaya who couldn't even walk and could only hop on the ground with one foot tucked in, leaving rows of footprints. Fly!"
Di Jun glanced disapprovingly at the little golden crows hiding on Xi He and Chang Xi's backs. They were usually quite capable, but ever since they learned that they had to fly from east to west every day in a tedious way, they had all become quails instead of golden crows.
Xiao Jiu and the others were in Xi He and Chang Xi's arms, getting all worked up. What do you mean, Father Emperor? Why don't you fly around the prehistoric world every day? They don't know how tiring that is. But when they looked at the endless road ahead, everything went black.
Xiao Shi's face turned completely black. She stomped on Di Jun's foot angrily, "Who is Ya Ya? I told you to call me Xiao Shi." She had lost face big time, in front of all the high-ranking members of the demon race.
Xiao Shi transformed into its true form, no longer suppressing the true fire of the sun around it. It flapped its small wings and set off from Tang Valley, flying westward as if fleeing.
After today, everyone will know that he is a golden crow that cannot walk on three legs, and he also has a girlish nickname.
Having survived the Golden Crow's death tribulation, he must return to his original form and become a Quasi-Saint. As for Yaya and the like, they should stay as far away as possible.
Di Jun grinned foolishly, "Taiyi, look how well Xiao Shi flies! Chang Hao, look, even when Xiao Shi unleashed the True Fire of the Sun, it didn't hinder him."
"That's enough! You know Xiao Shi doesn't like the name Ya Ya. Next time, call him by his full name." Tai Yi just couldn't understand what was wrong with his older brother, who was always deliberately trying to make his nephew angry.
Chang Hao was incomparably handsome, his skin so black it seemed to drip ink. Looking around, Chang Hao was completely beyond saving.
“But if Xiao Shi doesn’t get angry, his True Fire of the Sun will only work intermittently. It’s better to let him stay angry and get through today first.” Di Jun meant well. If Xiao Shi couldn’t unleash the True Fire of the Sun, it would be more serious than revealing his nickname.
“You guys watch closely. Xiao Shi’s first flight was like he’d flown a million times. You older brothers can’t let him down.”
In response to Di Jun, the little golden crows buried their heads in Xi He and the others, worried to death that Little Ten might suddenly fall from mid-air.
Chang Hao glared at him angrily and stormed off. How could he not be skilled? He could swear to God that Xiao Shi's flying was an instinct that had completely formed in his subconscious, which was why he could fly so smoothly. If he were to fly, this would be the best he could do.
If you don't believe me, let the eldest try it tomorrow. If he doesn't fall, he can change his name to Di Hao.
"Big brother, this is Xiao Shi's first time flying. I'll secretly accompany him." Taiyi couldn't help but turn invisible. That little thing has flown far enough, but its wings haven't fully grown yet. Won't it fall down?
"Yes, Uncle, you should go quickly." Xiao Jiu was really worried, but her mother said that Heaven had given so much merit, and something bad would happen if she didn't go.
"It's alright, Auntie will fly with you. If you fall, you can rest in Auntie's hands for a while." Chang Xi stroked Xiao Jiu's golden head. Such a small child, Di Jun, you're ruthless.
……………………
Chang Hao stormed back to Taiwei Palace and saw Yuanshi Gaoqing sitting leisurely by the window, admiring the sudden changes in the world, completely unaware that he was an uninvited guest and should have stayed in the shadows.
"How did you sneak into the Demon Court?" Chang Hao asked anxiously, pulling Yuan Shi away from the window. Should he be glad that Di Jun and the others weren't here?
"The heavens have changed, so I must come and see," Yuanshi said grandly.
"You really can use anything as an excuse." Where's your shame? You're looking at him but don't want to confront him directly, are you?
Chang Hao really didn't expect that Yuanshi would still be able to report for duty on time after he moved into the Demon Court. If Dijun and Taiyi had run into Yuanshi, he would have had a hard time explaining it.
"Don't you know that the Demon Court has the Three Pure Ones Heaven among its thirty-three heavens? That belongs to the Three Pure Ones." Yuanshi avoided answering; it was indeed dishonorable for a dignified sage to sneak into the Demon Court.
Chang Hao wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Yuan Shi's words had a hidden meaning, as if they were hinting at something to him.
"You've misunderstood me. I came to the Demon Court on important business, not to avoid you," Chang Hao said, his voice becoming increasingly confident as he spoke, though he had initially seemed a little guilty.
That's right, nothing is more important than life.
"Serious business? Don't tell me this whole 'heavenly upheaval' thing was a trick you and Di Jun pulled." Yuan Shi dared not speak his anger.
“This wasn’t my idea,” Chang Hao wasn’t out of his mind; he wished he could keep Little Golden Crow locked up until after the Lich Wars were over.
However, Heaven bestowed immense merit upon this, forcing the little golden crow to fly whether it wanted to or not, leaving no room for escape.
"Doesn't this mean there's another version to this story?" Yuanshi immediately seized on the loophole in Chang Hao's words.
Chang Hao was speechless. Yuan Shi, do you have to be so perceptive? You can find something to hold against him every time.
How can he do bad things in the future?
