"Hou Yi?" Hearing Gong Gong's suggestion, Houtu was stunned. It wasn't that she didn't know this man well. On the contrary, she knew him too well. He was the strongest Senior Magus in her Houtu tribe, and could be called her right-hand man.
But…
This right-hand man was referring to the battlefield, not life. Was it really okay for him to take care of this child?
Houtu was a little worried.
Her original plan was to entrust this Soft Bone Rabbit to a female shaman to take care of. Hou Yi was a man.
At the same time, he didn't know why he suddenly said Hou Yi's name. After saying that, Gong Gong's eyes lit up, feeling that this man was really suitable. Hou Yi, that kid, liked to grow flowers and grass when he had nothing to do. It was a good idea to let him raise this rabbit. When he grew fat, he would ask him to kill this rabbit and roast it for his little sister.
Thinking of this, Gong Gong opened his big hand. Instantly, this soft bone rabbit named 'White Jade' disappeared from Hou Tu's arms and reappeared in his hand.
Gonggong grabbed its rabbit ears and said,""That's it, little sister. It's just a mere Soft Bone Rabbit. If you want to raise it, then keep it. Let Hou Yi take care of it for you. We should go back.”
Houtu suddenly felt empty in her arms. Looking at the soft bone rabbit, whose ear was grabbed by Gonggong and hung in the air, Houtu opened her mouth, but in the end, she shook her head and didn't say anything.
"Forget it. Hou Yi it is. With his personality, even if he can't take good care of this child, he can at least protect her.”Houtu thought.
Then, he lowered his head and looked at Rollie, who was still sleeping soundly on the ground. A helpless look flashed across his eyes.
Originally, she wanted to teach this big fat bear a lesson. She wanted to teach it how to act and make herself feel touched for nothing. However, looking at the current situation, she was afraid that it would not work. Forget it, she would wait until it woke up a year later.
While thinking, Houtu looked at Gong Gong again and said,""Alright, Fourth Brother, let's go back then.”
"Yes." Gong Gong nodded, then waved his hand. In the next second, he, Houtu, the bear, and the rabbit all disappeared from where they were, leaving this Soft Bone Grassland.
After they left, many Xuan Immortal and Golden Immortal level demons came here and frantically collected the corpses of the Soft Bone Rabbits that were killed by the explosion, preparing to bring them back as food.
……
At the same time, in the Heavenly Court, Emperor Dong's Palace.
"Your Majesty, I have returned." Ao Yue stood at the foot of the jade steps and bowed to Taiyi, who was sitting on the main seat. Taiyi had a cold expression on his face and a majestic aura. The light of the great sun shone behind him.
"Meng Zhang of the Dragon Clan greets Donghuang." Meng Zhang, who was beside Ao Yue, also bowed to Taiyi.
" Yes, Ah Yue, I know what happened. It's not your fault. I underestimated the Iron Eater. I didn't expect it to be so blessed and loyal to Houtu and the Wu Tribe. Such a creature can't be bought over by a lamp or a Demon God."”Before Ao Yue could apologize, Tai Yi said this to him.
" Your Majesty, I…" Hearing Taiyi's words, Ao Yue felt deeply apologetic. He had failed to complete the first mission that His Majesty had given him. In the end, His Majesty had even taken the initiative to say that it was not his fault and had placed the responsibility on him. This made Ao Yue, who had been neglected by the Ancestral Dragon for tens of thousands of years, feel an indescribable feeling in his heart.
"Alright, this matter is already in the past. Let's not talk about it anymore.”Taiyi raised a palm and interrupted Ao Yue.
Then, he looked at Meng Zhang beside him and said,"What do you think, Dragon God? Are you willing to join my celestial heavens? If you are willing, I will immediately ask the Celestial Thearch to confer you the title of the leader of the eleven demon race's quasi-saints?”
Upon hearing Tai Yi's question, Meng Zhang looked at Ao Yue beside him, then bowed slightly and replied,"" Thank you for your favor, Your Majesty. Ever since the Dragon Han Tribulation, Meng Zhang has become accustomed to being idle and does not wish to be involved in the conflicts of the Untainted Land. Now, he only wishes to complete the orders of Great Elder Zhulong and protect Your Highness. As for joining the Demon Tribe, I hope Your Majesty can forgive him.”
" Meng Zhang…" Ao Yue's expression changed slightly when she heard Meng Zhang's reply, and she called out to him softly.
"Your Highness, please forgive me." Meng Zhang turned around and bowed to Ao Yue.
"What do you mean forgive me? The Dragon God has the right to choose. Since the Dragon God is unwilling to enter my celestial heavens, I won't force you. However, the gates of my celestial heavens are always open for the Dragon God. In the future, the Dragon God can enter and exit the Southern Heavenly Gate at any time without reporting.”Donghuang Taiyi said candidly, as if he did not care at all about Meng Zhang's refusal of his invitation.
Upon hearing this, Meng Zhang said to him,""Many thanks, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty…"
"It's fine." Taiyi said to Ao Yue.
"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty." Seeing that Taiyi really did not seem angry, the nervousness in Ao Yue's heart gradually disappeared. This also represented Meng Zhang thanking him. Then, with a flick of his sleeve, he returned the Emerald Light Duality Lamp to him.
Taiyi took the Emerald Light Duality Lamp, then his brows suddenly furrowed for a moment before relaxing. He said to Ao Yue and Meng Zhang,""Alright, you guys have worked hard. Go and rest. I still have some things to deal with.”
"Yes, I will take my leave."
"Meng Zhang will take his leave."
Ao Yue and Meng Zhang bowed to Taiyi. Then, Ao Yue turned around and left, followed by Meng Zhang.
After they left, a ball of Grand Sun Primordial Fire appeared beside Tai Yi. Then, a domineering man wearing the Great Sun Golden Crow Emperor Robe and the Hong Meng Heaven Earth Crown appeared.
"Big brother!" Taiyi stood up and nodded at the newcomer.
"Yes." Emperor Jun hummed and turned to look at the gate of Emperor Dong's Palace. He asked Taiyi,""Since Meng Zhang didn't agree, why didn't you just suppress him and force him to give a trace of his true spirit to the Demon Summoning Banner?”
Hearing this question, Taiyi replied,""If I do this, Ah Yue will hate me. I don't want my protector to hate me.”
"Hmph, you're really good to him. First, you made him a guardian, then you gave him the command of the six guards of the heavens. You even ignored the objections of the various officials and established his status above Demon Saint. Do you know how many memorials I've received for this matter? If you do this, those who don't know will think that he's not the son of the Ancestral Dragon but your son!”Emperor Jun snorted and put his hands behind his back, discontentedly saying to Taiyi.
" I…" Taiyi opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, he lowered his head and said,""His strength is worthy of the position I gave him.”
"However, he has only joined the Demi-human race for a hundred years, and he hasn't made any achievements. And Meng Zhang…"
"Although Meng Zhang is unwilling to join the Heavenly Court, he is Ah Yue's guard. As long as Ah Yue is still my guardian, I can control Meng Zhang through him. As for achievements, Eldest Brother, haven't you already decided to send troops to Penglai? For this battle, I recommend Yue to be the commander.”Taiyi said to Dijun.
"Hmm? Him?" Hearing Taiyi's words, Emperor Jun frowned and said to him,""He's too young. I'm afraid he's no match for Prince of the East.”
"No, I believe he can.”Taiyi said to Dijun seriously.
It was the first time that Taiyi trusted an outsider so much. Emperor Jun looked at him and was silent for a long time. Finally, he closed his eyes and said lightly,""Forget it, it's up to you."
"Buzz ~" With that, the Real Sun Fire reappeared and Dijun's figure disappeared in the fire.
