Chapter 239 Demanding a Saint's Compensation, Shameless? Reward Deposited!
But now, Niu Ba suddenly collapsed to the ground, repeatedly crying out in pain.
The more Donghuang Taiyi thought about it, the angrier he became, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
What else could it be but a blatant attempt to extort money from Niu Ba and Niu Ben?
"Shameless!!"
Donghuang Taiyi spoke out in anger, but there was nothing he could do.
Meanwhile, the many powerful figures who were watching this place were also dumbfounded.
"this?"
"I...I didn't hear wrong, did I?"
"Is Niu Ben... demanding compensation from the sage for his losses?"
"You can do that?"
"That bully's act is obviously fake."
"There's nothing we can do; the demon race is in the wrong in this matter."
"Extorting a saint?"
"..."
Many powerful beings were both amused and exasperated; none of them had expected that Niu Ben had stopped the Sage Nuwa for this very reason.
The Western Realm, Mount Sumeru.
Both the saints, Jieyin and Zhunti, were utterly astonished upon seeing this.
Why does Niu Ben's behavior seem so familiar?
"snort!"
After a slight pause, the Sage Zhunti coldly snorted:
"Senior brother, isn't Niu Ben utterly shameless?"
Zhunti has always harbored resentment towards Niu Ben.
After the Eastern King Duke's Purple Mansion Celestial Court was destroyed by the demon race, he sent his disciple Kasyapa to plunder the Purple Mansion's treasure trove.
Who would have thought that Niu Ben would intercept them halfway through, and most of the treasures in the Purple Mansion Treasury would fall into Niu Ben's hands.
The key point is that they can't say this out loud yet.
Even now, the demon race still believes that the emptying of the Purple Mansion Treasury was done by the Westerners.
Jieyin gave a bitter smile but did not reply.
I had initially thought that a conflict would break out between the demon race and the bull race, which would inevitably cause chaos in the East.
Who would have thought that, for Niu Ben's sake, all three Pure Ones descended upon the Hundred Thousand Mountains to support him.
Even if the demon race had Nuwa's team, they would have no choice but to submit to the Three Pure Ones.
After a moment of silence, Jieyin couldn't help but sigh:
"It seems that Niu Ben's status among the three religions is even higher than we imagined!"
……
At this moment, the Ten Thousand Mountains are located.
On the other hand, the members of the Bull Clan were also somewhat taken aback by their elder chief's vivid performance.
"Isn't the clan leader overacting a bit?"
"Is there?"
"I think it's really real! No, it is real!"
"That's right! Our Bull Clan's grand formation has always been controlled by the clan leader. The demon race's destruction of it will inevitably cause harm to the clan leader!"
"In that case, the demon race should indeed offer some compensation."
"That's right, how can you just leave so easily after saying a few words?"
"..."
At this moment, Taishang, Yuanshi, and Tongtian were all surprised to see this.
They originally thought that Nuwa would give in and leave with the demon race.
Who would have thought that Niu Ben would pull such a stunt?
"My disciple is really something..."
Taishang smiled slightly, said nothing, and waited for Nuwa's response.
Just then, the Sage Tongtian stepped forward and looked directly at the Sage Nuwa:
"Junior sister."
"My nephew is right."
"This whole affair was instigated by your demon race."
"They besieged their ancestral land, destroyed the mountain gate, and frightened many cattle creatures."
"It is only right and proper to compensate for some of the losses."
When he said this, Tongtian appeared righteous and stern, and he seemed to know this matter very well, as if he was very familiar with it.
Not far away, the disciples of the Jie Sect, including Daoist Duobao, were all astonished upon seeing this.
In their view, it was one thing for Niu Ben, the senior disciple, to be trying to extort money from others.
How come their master also looks so skilled?
"Gurgle..."
When Nuwa heard what Niu Ben said to Tongtian, she was so angry that her face turned red and her heart burned with rage.
If it were someone else...
If anyone dared to act like that in front of her, she would have already taken action.
Unfortunately, the other party was Niu Ben, who also had the support of the Three Pure Ones.
Most importantly, the demon race was indeed in the wrong in breaking the formation.
Even if we really wanted to bring Xihe back to the Heavenly Realm, we could have challenged the Bull Clan first and made them hand over their people.
However, after Donghuang Taiyi arrived with a group of demon gods, he did not notify the Bull Clan at all and immediately began to break the formation.
The commotion was considerable, yet it still failed to break the Bull Clan's protective formation.
The more Nuwa pondered, the more her chest heaved.
He looked like he was really angry at Niu Ben's actions.
"Huff huff..."
After a moment's hesitation, she let out a long sigh, knowing that the demon race was in the wrong and that it would be beneath her dignity to try to refute it.
After thinking it over, a resolute look flashed in Nuwa's eyes. With a wave of her jade hand, a beam of light flew straight toward Niu Ben.
Niu Ben took it and, upon closer inspection, saw that he now held a primordial spiritual treasure in his hand.
"Niu Ben, this innate spiritual treasure is yours. Consider it a loss to your Niu clan caused by Donghuang and the others' rude breaking of the formation earlier."
After saying this, the sage Nuwa flew away without waiting for Niu Ben's reply.
When Di Jun and the others saw this, they were filled with resentment, but they were powerless to do anything about it.
"hateful!!"
"Niu Ben, you...you just wait and see."
"I will remember this grudge!!"
Donghuang Taiyi was secretly furious and hated Niu Ben to the core.
After all, he had been defeated by Niu Ben in the previous battle in the East China Sea, and now he was being blackmailed by Niu Ben again, so his hatred was even greater!
Then, Di Jun and the others did not delay and quickly chased after the Sage Nuwa.
Their hurried and anxious manner suggested they were afraid that if they stayed any longer, Niu Ben would cause some more trouble.
Of course, Niu Ben also knew how to behave appropriately.
It's already quite good to be able to obtain a primordial spiritual treasure from Nuwa.
After all, the Bull Clan suffered no losses at all. Although the clan's protective formation had been damaged, it could be restored with a little improvement.
"Have they left?"
At this moment, Niu Ba, who was on the ground, was slightly startled. Seeing the demons leave, he suddenly flipped over and stood up from the ground.
He didn't look injured at all.
"Disciple, now that this matter is settled, it's time for us to return to Penglai Immortal Island!"
The Supreme Sage turned his gaze and it landed on Niu Ben.
Niu Ben nodded and hummed softly:
"Respectfully bidding farewell to our Master and Uncle-Master!"
Then, without delay, the Three Pure Ones left the Ten Thousand Mountains with their disciples, including Guang Chengzi and Duobao.
After the Three Pure Ones left, Niu Ben turned his gaze to Xi He and Chang Xi, and said with a smile:
"My two fairies, if you don't mind, why don't you settle down and live in the Hundred Thousand Mountains of my Bull Clan from now on?"
Upon hearing what Niu Ben said, Xi He and Chang Xi did not refuse and nodded in unison.
"Okay, okay!"
"I can be with my two sisters-in-law again."
Upon seeing this, Niu Xiaomei was overjoyed and cheered with delight.
Just then, a system notification sounded in Niu Ben's mind:
【Ding! 】
Congratulations on completing the selected task!
