Chapter 144: Silly Girl Picked Up Bad Habits
Her domineering aura that she normally had in front of outsiders appeared even more regal, and she grew intimidating without even being furious.
She looked at the woman coolly and walked towards the chair to take her seat. She took another brief look at the other woman and finally looked at Wang Hu.
A ray of light flashed before Wang Hu’s eyes, and he conveyed a summary of his conversation with the woman to Silly Girl.
Di Baijun’s heart felt heavy, and she frowned.
She was pensive for a moment before turning to look loftily at the woman.
Her domineering voice was unassailable. “You came from the Deep Abyss?”
“Does Her Majesty have any questions?” The woman’s expression did not change, but she spoke with more seriousness.
“I’m asking you. Did you come from the Deep Abyss?” Di Baijun raised her brows, and her powerful aura surged forth at the woman.
The woman looked on with more seriousness and firmness. She said in a nonchalant manner, “So what if I do?”
“The power in your body is strong, and I do not sense any chaotic or disorderly aura. Seems like your bloodline is not bad.” Di Baijun complimented her.
However, her attitude was that of a superior telling a subordinate that their work capabilities were not bad; her bone-deep arrogance was clearly visible.
It was as if a royalty said to a beggar that today’s earnings were not bad.
Just then, something caught the attention of Wang Hu. Silly Girl had an understanding of the Deep Abyss?
He looked at Silly Girl with surprise and then took another look at the demoness who looked more serious and stern.
Suddenly, he sensed a faint smell of gunpowder smoke.
Although he was a little baffled and amused, he was wise enough to not speak at this point.
He decided to wait and see if Silly Girl really had an understanding of the Deep Abyss and knew about this woman’s trump card…
The woman appeared undaunted as she looked coldly at the Tiger Queen, yet her heart felt heavy.
Did this Tiger Queen know a lot about the Deep Abyss?
The moment they just met, her instincts told her that this would be a very tough opponent. The Tiger Queen would be harder to deal with than she had imagined.
However, she did not think that the situation would be like this.
It was even more unexpected that the Tiger Queen seemed to have an acute understanding of the Deep Abyss.
Moreover, her arrogance was definitely not imparted to her by being the Tiger Queen.
It was something innate, from the bloodline.
The Tiger Queen’s bloodline must be very powerful; much more powerful than she expected.
As the different thoughts flashed through her mind, the woman took a side glance at the Tiger King and saw that he had no intention of speaking. She then realized that the last obstacle would be this Tiger Queen.
She spoke with a calm voice, “You have a good eye, Her Majesty. Seems like you have a deep understanding of the Deep Abyss.”
A faint smile appeared on Di Baijun’s face, which further emphasized her arrogance and disdain.
“It’s only just an abandoned world that will never see the light and will forever be chaotic.”
The woman’s eyes were filled with shock. It was the first time that she heard this.
The Tiger Queen also did not hide her contempt for the Deep Abyss.
If it was someone else who said it, she might not care for what they thought, but as she looked at the Tiger Queen now, she actually felt an incredulous feeling that the Tiger Queen was qualified to say such things.
Wang Hu was certain now. Silly Girl had a pretty good understanding of the Deep Abyss.
In that case, they wouldn’t have to rely entirely on this demonic woman.
At the same time, he also felt uncontrollable pride and admiration.
He watched Silly Girl undermine the demonic woman with just a few sentences and maintain an upper hand in the conversation. Her domineering arrogance was unparalleled and dazzling, and he felt so delighted.
That’s my wife.
The woman took a good look at the Tiger Queen and put aside her incredulous thought. She braved the intimidating aura that overwhelmed her—which was more powerful than the Tiger King’s—and said nonchalantly, “Since the Tiger Queen knows so much about the Deep Abyss, then that’s incredible news.
“I don’t need to waste my breath to elaborate then. I wonder if Her Majesty has any opinions about our collaboration.”
Di Baijun raised her eyebrows and said sternly without hesitation, “Collaboration? What do you have to offer for us to collaborate? Are you even qualified?”
The woman’s expression turned serious. She took a look at the Tiger King and saw that traces of amusement could be seen in his eyes.
She knew that the situation was out of her control now.
She did not expect the Tiger Queen to know about the Deep Abyss; her biggest bargaining chip was gone.
However, why was it that the Tiger Queen knew, and the Tiger King didn’t?
She was silent for a moment before speaking calmly, “What does Her Majesty mean?”
“You wish to protect your life from the humans, sure. But you have to join our Tiger King’s Cave from now on and pledge allegiance to me and the King,” Di Baijun said coldly, and her voice turned even more high and mighty.
Wang Hu frowned inwardly. Silly Girl was a little impatient; they hadn’t even figured out what the woman’s trump card was.
He still did not have a clue how she managed to escape that night without leaving a trace.
However, he did not say anything. No matter what, he was confident that he could cover the bases even if Silly Girl messed up.
He decided to just let her do whatever she wanted.
If the cold, domineering, competitive Silly Girl—who followed her heart—changed one day; he would not get used to it.
At this point, the woman let out a sigh. With nonchalance as though she had let go of all the desires in this world, she said, “Does Her Majesty think that that is possible?”
“Nothing is impossible,” Di Baijun said bossily, and her eyes continued to intimidate the woman.
“Does the Tiger King think the same way?” The woman turned to look at Wang Hu.
Without hesitation, Wang Hu said calmly, “The Queen’s wishes are naturally my wishes as well.”
“In that case, I have no choice. Seems like I have to continue to lie low and hide.” The woman sighed in resignation and suddenly looked straight at Di Baijun. She spoke calmly, “Will the Tiger Queen also try to capture me?”
“You came from the Deep Abyss. Whatever happens to you has nothing to do with our tiger species; neither do I wish to care about you.
“However, you trespassed into our territory twice. Compensate us accordingly, or I will not spare you,” Di Baijun instructed coldly.
The woman smirked, and she sneered, “About my compensation, let’s wait till you can catch me!”
Di Baijun went fierce, and she extended her palm. Wang Hu was even faster than her, and his divine power and divine senses quickly enveloped the entire drawing room.
The next moment, Di Baijun’s palm strike penetrated the woman’s silhouette and appeared to have made a hole in it.
The woman’s silhouette began to dissipate. She kept looking at Di Baijun. Feeling pleased with herself, she said, “Seems like you can’t catch me.”
Immediately after she finished her sentence, her figure completely disappeared.
Wang Hu looked on with surprise. Did she escape the same way two nights ago?
Di Baijun was angry and also surprised. She said, “She’s actually a Phantom Demon.”
“What’s a Phantom Demon?” Wang Hu asked.
“This species was quite strong in the Deep Abyss. In their bloodline, they are very good in the Art of Cloning and Phantasm.
“The body of that demoness just now was just a clone. Her bloodline is slightly stronger than I thought, for her to be able to conceal it from me and you,” Di Baijun explained, and her arrogance still remained.
It seemed that the other party’s bloodline was not worthy of her attention at all.
She paused and continued to say glumly, “If I knew she was a Phantom Demon, I should have found her original body first before talking. We’d be able to give her a good lesson.”
Wang Hu was amused. He rarely saw Silly Girl treat an outsider with so much animosity.
Usually, when she interacted with outsiders, she did not even bother to give them any attention.
The saying ‘some women just didn’t see eye to eye’ was apt in this case.
“Baijun, how do we find her original body?” Wang Hu asked. He was feeling rather bothered after letting her escape two times.
“The demoness was only at Transformation Realm now. Even if her bloodline was extraordinary, she cannot be further away from her original body for more than 200 kilometers,” Di Baijun said.
Wang Hu pondered and decided to give up the idea of searching for it now.
It would be hard to comb an area with a radius of 200 kilometers. She would also have left by now.
At the same time, Silly Girl was knowledgeable about the Deep Abyss; they didn’t need her. They also didn’t have a real feud, so it was unnecessary.
Even for Silly Girl, she also didn’t intend to do anything to that woman.
Asking for compensation was more likely an excuse to give the woman a lesson because Silly Girl did not like her.
He put aside this matter and asked seriously, “Baijun, what’s the situation like in the Deep Abyss?”
After hearing his question, Di Baijun’s brows furrowed slightly, and she did not appear to have as much disdain as before.
She composed her thoughts and said seriously, “The Deep Abyss is very powerful. In the beginning, it was just an abandoned world, and it was full of chaos and disorder.
“However, I’m not sure what happened afterward. It became stronger and stronger, and it focused on swallowing other new worlds to make them its own.
“At the same time, it transformed all the creatures in that world into demons.
“Until now, no one really knows how strong the Deep Abyss really is. There are very few people in the universe who dared to enter the deepest section of the Deep Abyss.”
As she spoke, a chunk of information was transferred into Wang Hu’s brain.
As he sorted through the information, his heart sank.
This Deep Abyss was terrifyingly strong. Luckily, they were protected by the limits set by the world passage.
Moreover, the Deep Abyss was divided into different Planes. The one they had contact with now was just one of the Planes. It probably wasn’t that strong if they allowed that Transformation Realm demoness to escape.
After a while, he came back to his senses. Di Baijun’s eyes wandered briefly, and she looked in another direction. Pretending to be unbothered, she said, “What did you and the demoness talk about outside? Did I spoil your plans?”
“No.” Wang Hu smiled at himself. Silly Girl was so easy to read. He said calmly, “We were talking about the matter of collaboration. I didn’t agree yet.
“Moreover, I just wanted to find out more about the Deep Abyss. Plus, I wasn’t certain about her background, so I brought her back.
“If not, ha! I would have given her a good beating, brought her back, searched her soul, and then made her your servant.”
Di Baijun’s lips curled upward, but she spoke contemptuously, “No way would I want that demoness as a servant. One look at her, and I know that she would not do a good job. Troublesome.”
Wang Hu couldn’t help but laugh. He wondered what that demoness would feel if she found out that Silly Girl was contemptuous about her being a servant.
He could hear that Silly Girl’s contempt was genuine.
Seeing that Wang Hu laughed, Di Baijun felt suspicious again, “Are you speaking the truth? You did not bring her back because you saw that she was pretty?”
Wang Hu was lost for words. He had to admit that the demoness was pretty, but if he had the intention of cheating, would he be silly enough to bring her home?
Wouldn’t he know that there was a tigress at home?
“Silly, don’t you know about my feelings yet? So what if she’s pretty?” Wang Hu said, sounding displeased.
Wang Hu expected that Silly Girl would be feeling embarrassed soon, he guessed that he might even get to receive something in return.
However, the next moment, he saw that Silly Girl’s brows furrowed, and she glared at him. She said in a confrontational voice, “So it means that you admit that the demoness is pretty?”
Wang Hu was taken aback, and he looked at Silly Girl with shock. His Silly Girl knew how to set him up now?
What the heck?! Where did she learn this from?
It must be from the Chinese Internet, most likely from a funny post or video.
B*stard, don’t let me find out who it was that taught my Silly Girl ‘bad’ things!
He blinked and immediately became aggrieved and anxious. He quickly pulled Silly Girl into an embrace.
“Baijun, what are you saying? You’ve wronged me! I did not mean that at all. Don’t you know my feelings for you? In my eyes, you are my one and only. Other women are the same to me.
“You’re pretty; they’re not pretty.
“I don’t recognize their faces at all.
“If you wrong me again the next time, I’ll really be mad at you,” Wang Hu said seriously, with a hint of disgruntlement.
Di Baijun did not see that coming. It was not like this in the video. Why was this rascal’s reaction so huge?
However, immediately after, she understood.
The human men and women on the Internet knew no shame and did not take marriage and love seriously.
This rascal may have lots and lots… and lots of weaknesses, but he saw me as his one and only.
He must have found it unacceptable that I’ve wronged him. If it was me, I can’t accept it either.
As she thought to herself, she felt guilty. I can’t be like this again next time.
Feeling guilty, she overcame her shyness and raised her hands to pat at Wang Hu’s back.
Her voice was tiny as she said, “Alright, I’m sorry. I said the wrong things.”
Wang Hu’s disgruntled voice was heard again. “You can’t be like this anymore. I don’t want there to be any suspicion between us.”
“Okay,” Di Baijun replied softly, and her expression softened.
“Instead of asking for your apology, let me kiss you!” Wang Hu said and gave her a kiss immediately.
“Mwah!”
Di Baijun glared at him with disdain, but she did not try to ‘hide’.
Then, once the kiss was over, she quickly turned and walked away.
Wang Hu blinked, and he smirked. Even if Silly Girl picked up the wrong things…
You cannot never stop me from always having a way to counter you.
However, he had to be careful in the future. In today’s world, Silly Girl was exposed to the Internet—there was a lot of nonsense on the Internet. It was inevitable that she would pick up more ‘bad’ things.
For the tricks that he used in the past, he had to make up for them and quickly find a scapegoat if possible.
The scapegoat could be Old Second, Old Third, Big Treasure, Little Treasure, or the timid fox; as long as it wasn’t me.
I would also need to give them a good lesson to make sure that they will be obedient scapegoats.
Being careful was the utmost priority. I must not let my guards down and fail as a result.
As he thought, he grew angry at the videos and jokes; it made Silly Girl pick up undesirable things.
In the future, if he had nothing better to do, he should pester Silly Girl more, so she would have less time to pick up the ‘bad’ things.
The tiny incident simply passed by with Wang Hu’s wit.
Very soon, Wang Hu turned busy. He communicated with China about the Deep Abyss.
It was necessary to give some reminders and provide some information about their common enemy.
At the same time, more than 100 kilometers away, a woman was dashing into the distance while holding her right chest.
