251: Chapter 182 Shao Siming_9 251: Chapter 182 Shao Siming_9 This was a woman of utmost beauty, as if she embodied the spirit of everything under the heavens.
Qiong Qi and the others were dumbstruck, their gaze at the woman filled with infatuation.
However, Baize acted as if he had seen a fearsome flood dragon, stumbling backward, his gaze toward the woman filled with reverence.
Seeing Baize’s reaction, Qiong Qi and the others realized the situation, hastily retreating to Baize’s side.
Although they did not recognize the woman, they knew from Baize’s reaction that she was not to be trifled with.
Gulp.
Baize swallowed hard, fighting the urge to flee.
He took a deep breath and said, “I never expected Shao Siming to still be in the Three Realms, truly a surprise for Baize, it seems that the destruction of the Great Sage Temple was indeed Shao Siming’s doing.”
Shao Siming blinked, smiled sweetly and said, “Yes, I did it myself.”
Suppressing the fear in his heart, Baize asked, “What does Shao Siming need from Baize?”
Shao Siming pouted unhappily and said, “Why do you look so scared of me?
Do I seem like some terrible monster?
How boring.”
Baize dared not speak, those who knew Shao Siming never took her lightly.
One of the chief ministers of the Eastern Emperor Tai Yi’s bone, she possessed the strength of a Great Heavenly Venerate.
She was a deity in charge of fertility and also the protector of children.
Such a deity should, in theory, be gentle.
But what set Shao Siming apart was her decisive and ruthless nature; under Eastern Emperor Tai Yi’s command, she was one of the most feared deities.
Even Guan Shouyao, who oversaw life and death, did not dare to act recklessly before her.
“How many in the world are not afraid of Shao Siming?”
Baize said with a wry smile.
Shao Siming’s mouth curled into a hint of a smile as her beautiful eyes fixed on Baize and said, “You don’t need to worry, I just came to chat with you.
After all, in the current Three Realms, there aren’t many old friends left.
Both Eastern Emperor Tai Yi and Senior Commander-in-Chief have been exiled from the Three Realms, suffering beyond the Domain, and Yao Ji doesn’t want to deal with me.
I’m quite lonely, you see.”
Baize mentally sneered, lonely my ass.
After many years of lying low, it was unknown how much power Shao Siming had amassed under her command.
Now that she dared to show herself, it indicated that she had strong confidence in her position.
Baize forced himself to remain calm as he analyzed Shao Siming’s intention.
After a while, Baize finally lifted his head and said to Shao Siming, “Shao Siming, what exactly do you want to do?
Please speak plainly.
If it’s within Baize’s power, I definitely will not refuse.”
“I want your allegiance,” Shao Siming replied indifferently.
Baize wanted to refuse immediately, for it was something he could not do.
His loyalty was to Emperor Jun, and naturally, he could not pledge allegiance to another.
Shao Siming giggled and said, “Oh, I’m just scaring you.
Look how frightened you are; your cultivation isn’t something I covet.
Although you’re smart, you’re still a bit dumber compared to me; of what use could you be?”
Baize smiled bitterly; was he really that bad?
With Shao Siming’s words, it seemed as if he amounted to nothing.
Seeing Baize look as if he had taken a blow, Shao Siming chuckled lightly and said, “But although you’re a bit weaker, a bit dumber, you’re still useful.
I want to join forces with you to unseal the path of all beings, allowing both your Emperor Jun and my Eastern Emperor Tai Yi to return.”
Baize’s eyes lit up; if that was the case, he was quite willing.
Both of their masters were outside the Domain, and if they could join forces, the chances of returning were naturally great.
“I agree, what does Shao Siming need me to do?” Baize asked somewhat excitedly.
He wasn’t worried about Shao Siming double-crossing him, for their objective was the same.
Shao Siming might say she dismissed their power, but with their force, the situation was entirely different.
The people by his side were all Heavenly Venerates.
Although none were Great Heavenly Venerates, no one could afford to overlook them.
“I do things, and then you claim it was your doing, to shield my existence,” Shao Siming said simply.
Baize: “...”
From Shao Siming’s plan, she really did seem to dismiss his forces.
Plainly put, Shao Siming merely wanted to use their reputation without any other intent.
“That’s it?” Baize asked skeptically.
“That’s it,” Shao Siming glanced at them with a bit of disdain and said, “What else do you think you could do?
A few big and small cats...
Emperor Jun is counting on you for a return to the Three Realms, but chances are, you’ll die old beyond the Domain before that happens.”
Baize almost let out an exasperated curse.
He was furious, being so belittled.
But, thinking about what Shao Siming had said, he also felt somewhat ashamed.
At least up to now, he had not found a chance to bring Emperor Jun and the others back.
Baize sighed and lowered his head.
The situation was stronger than the person; he had to accept it.
Shao Siming’s mouth twitched into a slight smile before she turned and walked away.
“Baize, you can bear even this?”
Only after Shao Siming had left did Qiong Qi finally speak.
He looked indignant and very angry.
Baize gave him a glance and said, “Bear it I must.
If you think you can defeat her, you’re welcome to try yourself.”
Qiong Qi shrank his neck; he too had heard of Shao Siming’s formidable reputation.
Encouraging others was one thing, but him stepping up?
Impossible.
“Baize, be careful, don’t let that woman trick you, I don’t quite trust what she says,” the Nine-tailed Fox reminded.
“Don’t worry,” Baize replied indifferently, “I’ll be cautious, and won’t be easily double-crossed.”
Everyone breathed a slight sigh of relief.
The dominance Shao Siming had displayed moments before had given them a great sense of oppression.
Now, seeing Baize so composed, they felt somewhat reassured.
Everyone thought that Baize must have been feigning weakness just now, deliberately showing vulnerability to fool the enemy, and then finding an opportunity to turn the tables and plot against Shao Siming.
Baize gave them a look, knowing full well their thoughts.
He only wished to tell these people, you’re overthinking it; I’m genuinely afraid of her.
