Chapter 157 Is Springtime Coming for Cows?
Upon hearing the voices coming from inside the hall, Niu Ben was taken aback, a look of bewilderment appearing on his face.
"What's going on?"
"Is this my first time visiting the Moon Palace?"
Niu Ben was stunned.
He quickly realized that the people inside had mistaken him for a member of the demon race.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. It comes from the Bull Clan, so if we're really talking about it, it could actually be considered a demon.
After defeating the Purple Mansion army, Di Jun sent the demon god Fei Dan to invite him to join the demon race.
For this reason, they were even willing to make him the third emperor of the demon race.
But Niu Ben ultimately rejected him.
"It seems that these two fairies, Xihe and Changxi, don't really like people of the demon race!"
"This demon race not only sealed off the Taiyin Star with an array, but also dispatched several Grand Luo Golden Immortals to guard it outside."
"It looks like these two goddesses have been placed under house arrest here."
"Could it be that Dijun is trying to force the two of them to submit?"
After thinking for a moment, Niu Ben came to his senses and then spoke:
"The fellow cultivators inside have probably misunderstood."
"My name is Niu Ben, and I am a disciple of the Taiqing Sage of the Bajing Palace on Shouyang Mountain."
"Today, while traveling through the celestial realm, I happened to pass by this place."
"I was intrigued by the mysterious formation here and thus ventured in! I am not a member of the demon race, so I hope you will not take offense."
Niu Ben's words were neither humble nor arrogant.
He not only stated his identity and origin but also explained why he was there, and his tone was extremely polite.
Upon hearing what Niu Ben said, the palace fell silent.
Before long, the gates of the Moon Palace slowly opened.
Immediately afterwards, two beautiful figures came into view.
Both women possessed unparalleled beauty.
"What a nice view!"
Niu Ben looked up and his eyes lit up; he couldn't help but secretly admire it.
He naturally knew that the two women who appeared before him were the two fairies formed from the moon, Xihe and Changxi.
The woman at the front was dressed in a moon-white palace gown, her hair styled in a high bun, and she had a dignified and graceful demeanor.
Her features exude a gentle and graceful charm, like the brightest full moon in the night sky, captivating all who behold her.
It was none other than the fairy Xihe.
The woman standing slightly behind Xihe wore a light blue dress, her attire simple, with a hint of aloofness and stubbornness in her eyes.
At first glance, it resembles a cold, crescent moon on the horizon, exuding an aura that keeps strangers at bay.
Who else could it be but Xihe's younger sister, Changxi?
The two fairies stood together, one gentle and the other cold, one still and the other dynamic, complementing each other perfectly.
It actually made the cold and desolate Guanghan Palace seem a bit more lively.
Just as Niu Ben was engrossed in watching, Xi He, who was in the lead, spoke first:
"So you are a disciple of the Supreme Sage. I was a bit rude earlier."
"My name is Xihe, and this is my younger sister, Changxi."
"Just now, my sister mistook you for a demon and was very offensive. Please forgive her."
Xihe's voice was so gentle that it felt like a spring breeze on one's face.
"snort!"
Before Niu Ben could reply, Chang Xi, who was following behind Xi He, pouted and said with a look of dissatisfaction:
"elder sister."
"We didn't do anything wrong."
"If anyone's to blame, it's himself—his aura is just like those demons!"
Hearing Chang Xi's words, Niu Ben didn't take it to heart, knowing that the two sisters had very different personalities.
At this moment, Xihe turned to look at Changxi and gently reprimanded her:
"Little sister, don't be rude!"
This wouldn't be a big deal if it were anyone else.
However, Niu Ben comes from a family of sages, whose status and position are extraordinary, and therefore cannot be easily doubted or offended.
As she spoke, Xihe turned to look at Niu Ben, her face filled with apology, and said:
"Fellow Daoist Niu Ben, please don't be offended."
"My younger sister is straightforward and didn't mean to offend me."
Upon hearing this, Niu Ben smiled slightly, naturally not wanting to stoop to Chang Xi's level. He changed the subject and asked:
"The Fairy Xihe".
"What's your relationship with this demon clan?"
While asking the question aloud, Niu Ben already had a guess in his mind.
He wondered if it was because Di Jun wanted to marry Xi He, but she disagreed, which led to the sealing of the Taiyin star.
"well……"
Upon hearing Niu Benyan's question, Xihe sighed helplessly.
Before she could say anything, Chang Xi said angrily:
"What else could it be?"
"This demon emperor Di Jun has taken a liking to my sister. He thinks he's something special just because he's some kind of demon king."
"They've sent people time and again to invite my sister to join the demon race, saying they'd appoint her as the Goddess of the Moon. Isn't their real intention to use this opportunity to get close to her and eventually marry her?"
At this point, Chang Xi was already red-faced with anger, and added:
"When his sister ignored him, he became enraged and actually had Fuxi, a demon who was skilled at setting up amplitudes, set up a great formation that sealed off the entire Taiyin Star."
"They call it protecting us sisters, but in reality, they've just kept us under house arrest here!"
"This will make my sister give in and agree to marry her."
Mentioning Di Jun ignited a burning rage within Chang Xi.
"Sister! You..."
After hearing what Chang Xi said, Xi He was stunned. She didn't expect her younger sister to be so outspoken, revealing such a private matter.
After thinking for a moment, Xihe blushed and didn't know what to say.
She was naturally unwilling to marry the Demon Emperor Di Jun, but now the entire Taiyin Star was sealed off by an array, and there were also Great Luo Golden Immortals guarding the outside.
Xihe didn't know how much longer she could hold on.
Upon hearing this, Niu Ben frowned slightly, as it was roughly what he had guessed.
He paused for a moment, then couldn't help but let out a cold snort and shouted:
"snort!"
"This Di Jun is supposed to be a king of the demon race, yet he acts so despicably; he's truly a shameless scoundrel!"
"He's no good!"
As soon as Niu Ben uttered these words, Xi He and Chang Xi were taken aback, their expressions filled with astonishment.
This was the first time they had ever heard someone so bluntly berate Di Jun.
After all, this is the Heavenly Realm, and Di Jun, as the Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan, rules over the entire Demon Clan and wields great power and influence.
In this celestial realm, no one has ever dared to be so disrespectful to Emperor Jun.
Shocked, Chang Xi unconsciously glanced at Niu Ben a few more times.
Previously, she didn't like Niu Ben very much.
But hearing Niu Ben scold Di Jun like this, I suddenly found Niu Ben much more pleasing to the eye.
While observing, Chang Xi suddenly thought of something, and her eyes lit up. She said:
"Fellow Daoist Niu Ben."
"What do you think of my sister?"
"She is a primordial deity born from the Taiyin star, with both appearance and cultivation being of the highest caliber."
"I think you're a pretty good person, and as a disciple of a sage, your status is worthy of my sister."
Niu Ben was completely dumbfounded when Chang Xi said those words.
I was wondering if the topic had taken a bit too far in a roundabout way.
They were just denouncing Di Jun, how come in the blink of an eye, Chang Xi is already acting as a matchmaker for him and Xi He?
Especially since they've only just met!
