Rabbit Must Die

Chapter 803: Chapter 399: Scratch!_1

The Demon Teacher Kun and Peng covered their face, obviously at their wit’s end with the embarrassing Overlord. "A great Overlord like you actually going for a bath just to bathe with a female immortal? Can you be any more disgraceful?"

Hence, Kun and Peng took the initiative and said, "Overlord, that Rabbit’s baths are pretty expensive."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was startled and then said, "Then forget it. Some other time." After speaking, Eastern Emperor Taiyi exclaimed, "Wait a minute, didn’t we agree on a partnership? When the time comes, I’ll be a shareholder, surely it’ll be free!"

Demon Teacher Kun and Peng: "$#^..."

Taibai Star Monarch bitterly smiled to himself: "My Cao, he hasn’t forgotten about it? He can’t be serious, can he?"

While they were talking, Li Jing angrily barged in, shouting as he entered, "Jade Emperor, you must stand up for me! That damn rabbit must have fed my daughter some kind of love potion; my foolish girl actually dug up the peach and plum tree that had been growing in our home for eight hundred thousand years and took it away!"

The Jade Emperor was taken aback, then laughed and said, "That rabbit sure is quick. The peach and plum tree from Heavenly Lord Li’s household is a natural peach plum tree. Such a unique specimen is rare in the world nowadays..."

Li Jing, with a sobbing tone, said, "Jade Emperor, stop making fun of me. You have to stand up for me."

The Jade Emperor helplessly said, "But was it the Rabbit that dug it up?"

Li Jing was stunned, shook his head and said, "No, it was the child Zhenying. I don’t know what got into her, she’s the one who dug it up."

The Jade Emperor nodded and said, "Then there’s no rush."

"No... no rush? Jade Emperor... I’m... quite anxious." Li Jing knew all too well, anything that fell into the rabbit’s hands was basically like a meat bun hitting a dog – gone forever. The worst part was, that damn rabbit might eat the tree at any moment. He was right to worry. Especially with the constant battles recently, he might be dispatched at any moment, and if he was not around to take care of it, probably no one else would later on. After all, his sons at home spoiled Zhenying even more than he did...

The Jade Emperor coughed dryly and said, "Just wait a bit longer, let’s deal with it when everyone’s here."

"Everyone?" Li Jing was puzzled.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was also startled, dropped the melon seeds in his hand, then slapped his thigh and said, "Well, well... I get it now, that rabbit isn’t likely to just pull one job! Suddenly, I feel like this investment might not be minor..."

Kun and Peng desperately nodded their heads, wishing nothing more than for Eastern Emperor Taiyi to forget about this venture!

Otherwise, if word got out later, people would say that the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court Overlord, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, made his first deal after resurrection by buying into a small bathhouse in some remote mountain area!

No matter how he thought about it, it was just too embarrassing!

As soon as the words were spoken, a woman rushed in to report, "Your Majesty Jade Emperor, the plants in the Imperial Garden have collectively run away, led by that Conghua, the natural grass and wood spirit. The one paving the way is that rabbit... Do we do something about it?"

The Jade Emperor sighed and said, "We’ll discuss it in a bit."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi followed up with a laugh, "What do you mean ’discuss it in a bit’? As an Overlord, one should be broad-minded. You shouldn’t always focus on your own little plot of land... as the saying goes, ’all land under heaven belongs to the emperor’. Since the world is ours, it doesn’t matter where it is placed, does it? Why fixate on it being just outside your doorstep?"

The Jade Emperor let out a chuckle, glancing at Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

Suddenly, Eastern Emperor Taiyi had a bad feeling...

Just then, a man clad in armor came in, and as he entered, his helmet shattered, nine birds’ heads cried and howled with tears and snot flying everywhere as he rushed in, shouting while running, "Overlord, disaster! That rabbit has carried away the Wine-fragrant Chestnut Tree you planted in the back courtyard!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was taken aback, while the Jade Emperor beside him looked at him with a smile, saying, "As an emperor, you should be broad-minded..."

"Why does this sound so familiar?" Eastern Emperor Taiyi wondered.

It seemed like Dijun had said the same thing to him last time, that Emperor Qinghua of the East was a repeater too!

A myriad of curses raced through Taiyi’s mind as he gritted his teeth and said, "You new age Overlords, do you all like to parrot others?"

Jade Emperor chuckled and replied, "Not bad, we prefer to ask humbly for guidance."

Taiyi slammed the table, stepped one foot on the dragon throne and the other on the chair’s back, looking like a hooligan as he rolled up his sleeves, his face red with rage, he roared, "Ask humbly for guidance? Who’s asking who here? In terms of age, you’re younger than me, in terms of cultivation base, I’m not afraid of you! Who on earth came up with that phrase? I want to kill him!"

"When three people walk together, there must be one who is my teacher; I do not hesitate to ask if I do not understand," the Jade Emperor said.

Upon hearing this, Taiyi instantly went from being explosively angry to squatting on the chair, holding a plate and tapping on his cane while chuckling, "I like hearing that, say it again?"

Demon Teacher Kun and Peng couldn’t bear to watch his Overlord disgrace himself further and coughed, saying, "Overlord, that saying has a story behind it. It essentially means that a sage, encountering three idiots on the road, will still ask them what he doesn’t understand... That’s the origin of ’When three walk together, there must be a teacher among them...’ "

Smack!

Taiyi slapped a plate of sunflower seeds on Jade Emperor’s head, exclaiming, "Damn it! I realize I just shouldn’t hang out with you guys! You lot from the posterior heavenly court, always thinking about all this roundabout stuff in your heads? Can’t we just fight it out if there’s a problem? What’s with all the incessant yapping?"

Unperturbed, the Jade Emperor casually picked a sunflower seed and cracked it leisurely, "If you don’t make a move soon, your tree will be relocated to the Moon by the rabbit."

Taiyi pursed his lips and said, "I’ve told you, as an emperor, you must be magnanimous! It’s just a Wine-fragrant Chestnut Tree, right? Let him have it! I’m not bothered!"

"Really?" the Jade Emperor asked.

Taiyi nodded vigorously: "Really!"

"Then could you stop scratching my chair? It’s quite expensive," said the Jade Emperor.

Only then did Taiyi realize that while speaking, he had scratched three lines into the Jade Emperor’s dragon throne, looking like a galactic squad captain’s emblem...

Taiyi quickly withdrew his hand and tried to change the subject nonchalantly: "Guiche, why is that rabbit digging up our tree, anyway?"

With a pitiful look, Guiche said, "Overlord, you know I wouldn’t dare provoke that rabbit. I also don’t know why he would dig up our tree, so I didn’t venture to ask..."

"Smack!"

Nobody saw how Taiyi picked up the plate from the ground and simultaneously smacked it on Guiche’s face nine times!

By the time the plate fell, Guiche’s face was full of sunflower seed shells.

Taiyi pointed at Guiche, fuming: "Look at the sorry state of you! If you can’t stop him, can’t you at least ask?"

With a pathetic retort, Guiche asked, "Wouldn’t the result be the same?"

Taiyi was momentarily at a loss for words, instinctively stretching his hand to the side, fingers coming together, ready to scratch! But he clawed at thin air.

Turning his head, he saw the Jade Emperor had moved the chair five meters away without him noticing!
