Chapter 81: An Old Cow Eating Young Grass

Tu Tu was silent as it considered Zhu Lin’s answer. After a while, Tu Tu said, "I heard that the Devil God is immortal. In the past, when the ancient gods combined their power together, they also failed to kill him. Even if he really dies, he will be reborn after ten thousand years."

Zhu Lin nodded and said, "Mhm. Since he was born from chaos energy, as long as there is negative energy in the universe, his power will not be lost and he can be resurrected infinitely."

"Then what is the use of killing him? In my opinion, the Devil God is not the source of the problem. If you really want to achieve true peace, all you need to do is to clear the negative energy in the universe." Tu Tu said after pondering on her words.

Zhu Lin shook her head and said, "It’s impossible. Every sentient being is born with two sides of energy, which is positive energy and negative energy. There is no way to get rid of negative energy without getting rid of the positive energy. But if sentient beings lose these two energies, they will cease to exist."

Tu Tu thought for a while and said, "In that case, what is the use of killing the Devil God? Moreover, as far as I know, the Devil God is the only remaining ancient god. He rarely shows up and never does anything to disrupt the order of the universe. The first time he appeared after the legendary battle between the ancient gods was actually when you were born."

Zhu Lin looked at Tu Tu and asked, "You are only three thousand years old. How much do you know about him? Let alone you, even I can’t say I know much about him."

The rabbit patted its chest with its furry paws, and said proudly, "Master, although I am still young, I have already traveled to many places. What’s more, the one who told me this was the Heavenly Emperor himself."

Hearing that her elder brother is the one who told Tu Tu about this, Zhu Lin raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "Why did my elder brother tell you about this?"

Tu Tu shook its head and said, "I don’t know why the Heavenly Emperor told me about this. One day, when you were in seclusion, the Heavenly Emperor suddenly visited your divine cave. He called me, and suddenly told me this story. He looked troubled at that time, and I even saw guilt in his eyes."

Zhu Lin was surprised by Tu Tu’s answer and said, "Tell me everything that you know. I wonder why my elder brother never told me anything about the Devil God except that I was born to kill him."

Recalling the past, Tu Tu said, "The Heavenly Emperor said that on the day you were born, the Devil God suddenly appeared in the Divine Ice Lake. Because you are in your critical moment, no one dares to take action for fear that the battle will affect you. After your soul flew out of the ice flower under the Divine Ice Lake, the Devil God suddenly flew towards your soul and wanted to take you away."

"Then? What happened after that?" Zhu Lin asked curiously.

Tu Tu shrugged and said, "After that, the Devil God beat up all the gods who dared to stop him, including the Heavenly Emperor. Fortunately, when he wanted to touch your soul, your soul suddenly dimmed and almost disappeared. The Heavenly Emperor said, that is when fear is shown in the Devil God’s eyes for the first time. Until the time he told me this story, the Heavenly Emperor still couldn’t believe that the Devil God had something he was afraid of."

Zhu Lin thought for a while and asked, "So the reason why the Devil God didn’t kidnap me when I was born is because he cannot touch my soul and is afraid I will cease to exist?"

Tu Tu nodded and said, "I remember that the Heavenly Emperor said before he left, the Devil God threatened that if the Heavenly Emperor dared to set up marriage for you, the Devil God would destroy the universe and then snatch you away. He claims that you are his wife, and he will destroy anyone who dares to covet his wife."

Hearing this, Zhu Lin pinched the bridge of her nose and said in disbelief: "That shameless man... I didn’t expect that he dared to recognize a newborn baby as his wife. It’s really an old cow eating young grass!"

Tu Tu looked at its master’s expression, patted her arm and said, "Master, it’s hard on you. Every time he came to see you before, you must have been under a lot of pressure."

Hearing the pity in the rabbit’s tone, Zhu Lin sighed. After a moment of silence, she said, "If what you just said is true, then I really have no reason to kill him."

Tu Tu nodded and said, "That’s right. Besides, If the Devil God only cared about chasing after his wife and you really killed him without any reason, wouldn’t you be the villain and he is the victim? Just imagining the expression on his face when he was killed by the one he loves already brings tears to my eyes. How heartbroken would he be? How pitiful would he be?"

Hearing Tu Tu’s words, Zhu Lin shuddered. She glared at the rabbit and said quickly, "Who is his wife? Don’t talk nonsense."

Tu Tu looked at her displeased expression, quickly covered its petal-like mouth with its paws, and said, "I’m sorry, Master. My bad."

Seeing the rabbit’s antics, Zhu Lin pinched the rabbit’s cheek and said, "No second time."

Tu Tu nodded quickly and said, "Master, since you have no reason to kill the Devil God, then you have no reason to worry, right?"

Zhu Lin thought about the rabbit’s words for a long time, before hesitantly saying, "It seems so...?"
