Chapter 2086: The Punishment
Fairy Yingxue did not know how to defend herself anymore. It was true that she was nothing compared to the Divine Lord; someone who was not even qualified to be the Divine Lord’s servant. The Divine Lord would have never even heard of her name.
"Prince Nianmo, it was my mistake. I should not have mentioned my name in the same breath as the Divine Lord."
"You have finally realized your worth. Do you think that you can put yourself on par with me, then?"
"I... I dare not."
"If so, who do you think you are to make comments on my personal affair?" At this point, Di Fuyi’s expression was serious, and he was clearly asserting his authority.
Fairy Yingxue said nothing more. She kneeled and apologized to him. "I know that I have made a terrible mistake. Please forgive me, my prince."
Completely ignoring her presence, Di Fuyi gently swirled the tea leaves in his cup. Then, he looked at the Emperor Immortal with a tight smile. "Your highness, I remember clearly that there is a law, stating that if any celestial being is found guilty of distorting facts and giving a false account about the Emperor Immortal, he or she shall be punished by having their tongue removed. Therefore, I could not help but wonder about the punishment that should be placed upon anyone who talks bad about me."
The Emperor Immortal was not aware of such a punishment. "About that..."
Nonchalantly, Di Fuyi took a sip of his tea, then placed it back gently onto the table. "Of course, if you think that my status is merely insignificant, negligible enough to be slandered by anyone, you may disregard my previous request." He had put the Emperor Immortal into a difficult position.
