Chapter 231: Di Baijun’s New Hobby
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The first day of the troops’ expedition went by smoothly.
On the second morning, w.a.n.g Hu let the two little fellows go and play by themselves after helping them wash up. He carefully scanned the vicinity of Tiger King’s Cave and went back to cultivating.
While he cultivated, a part of his divine senses was looking out for accidents at all times.
When it was nighttime, he made Su Ling change into Di Baijun’s looks again and tricked the two little fellows.
The two little fellows saw their Mommy and did not sense anything amiss. They continued to spend each day happily for the time being.
In the blink of an eye, a few days pa.s.sed, and the Tiger King’s Cave remained peaceful.
Meanwhile, in the Scarlet Blaze World, it was engulfed in battle flames.
On the plains with no end in sight, with the world pa.s.sage as the center, a city was built on ground zero within a few days.
The city was the command center of the troops of Tiger King’s Cave.
In the center of the city was the city’s largest villa. Here, Di Baijun sent out one command after another.
In the villa and everywhere in the city, everyone was as busy as a bee.
Inside the villa, the beings were mainly in their Dao form. On the other hand, the beings outside the villa were mainly in tiger forms.
Occasionally, some Third Realms would fly into the distance, either by themselves or with a few Second Realm tigers.
In the center-most drawing room…
Di Baijun sat atop a chair, and her imposing aura filled the entire drawing room.
In front of her was a sandbox that was nine meters in length and width. More than 10 figures stood around it.
Apart from them, more than 20 figures were awaiting instructions in the drawing room. A few of them were even manipulating some technological items.
“Queen, the cell tower’s signal range has now exceeded 2,000 kilometers,” suddenly, one of the few beings manipulating technological items stood up, bowed, and said reverently to Di Baijun.
Immediately, everyone’s faces—including Di Baijun’s—appeared delighted.
All of them then turned to look at Di Baijun.
All the pairs of eyes looked on expectantly, seeming to be awaiting some command.
Unhurriedly, Di Baijun said with a cool voice, “Good. Order the troops to continue to move ahead. Subdue all forces within the range of the signal.”
“Yes,” someone answered immediately.
The command was sent out quickly with the use of technology.
“Queen,” Jun Wen—who stood by the side of the sandbox—bowed and said with a solemn voice, “The Shanhe Sword Sect in the north that is more than 1,000 kilometers away is quite powerful. Should we send reinforcements to the north?”
Di Baijun pondered for a moment and instructed: “Jun Yong, Xiong Zong, the both of you shall lead 10 Third Realms, 500 tigers, and 2,000 Second Realms and send reinforcements to the north.” Two figures, who stood beside the sandbox, immediately abided and left the drawing room to take action immediately.
Very soon, the squad left for the sky, flying to the north like a looming dark cloud.
In the drawing room, the discussion continued. As time went by, one command after another was transmitted in all directions.
Di Baijun remained composed and sent out commands unhurriedly—as if unbothered by the annoyance that she usually felt when dealing with ch.o.r.es in the past.
Rather, she looked like a true marshal who ruled the armed forces.
It made w.a.n.g Liang and Jun Wen, who were slightly more familiar with her, feel slightly amazed.
They could not help but feel that their understanding of their Queen (Sister-in-law) was too superficial.
When they did things, they made sure to be more careful and meticulous.
A few hours later, the arrangements for the present situation ceased.
Two senior officials were left in the room to pay attention to any updates, while everyone—including Di Baijun—left.
Di Baijun returned to her place of residence at the back of the villa and closed her eyes to cultivate.
It was the eighth day of invading the Scarlet Blaze World. It had been the same routine for the past few days.
After making arrangements and sorting out the current progress, senior officials took turns to stay in the room to pay attention to updates, while the other senior officials left and did their own thing. They had a break time when they could use it to cultivate or to do other things.
At this moment, Di Baijun felt complete peace of mind. She was not anxious at all, unlike when she expressed to w.a.n.g Hu that she wanted to battle. This state had lasted for a few days already.
Even w.a.n.g Hu would be surprised to see her like this.
This was his compet.i.tive wife who disliked dealing with ch.o.r.es? However, Di Baijun was not surprised at all. This was normal for her.
Leading troops in an invasion and personally fighting were two different things.
She already understood this since the last time they conquered the Lichi World.
At the same time, she felt that leading troops in an expedition was also a great feeling.
It was another form of battle.
She did a lot of preparation for this moment. For example, she studied all kinds of war strategies and knowledge about troop battling from the humans.
Hence, even though she knew that the invasion of this world was mainly for the sake of training the tiger species and that she would probably not get a chance to personally fight since the combat power of this world was quite weak; she still expressed a strong desire to come.
The main reason was that she had fallen in love with the feeling of leading troops in an expedition.
For this purpose, she separated the commanding of troops from ch.o.r.es.
She still disliked ch.o.r.es, but commanding troops was no ch.o.r.e.
A few hours later, she paused her cultivation.
She took a look at her phone and saw that there was nothing urgent to settle. She let her mind run wild, and gentle longing appeared on her originally expressionless and naturally aloof face.
How were Big Treasure and Little Treasure coping? Did that jerk take good care of Big Treasure and Little Treasure? It has been eight or nine days, yet the jerk did not send any message. What a jerk! What is he doing? As she thought, displeasure and some wariness became visible on her face.
That jerk! Could he be bewitched by that fox?! Or did he let himself go wild in enjoyment when I’m gone?
Di Baijun recalled the videos that she saw on the Chinese Internet. When some men left their wives’ side, they set themselves free and did not miss their wives at all.
She became suspicious out of instinct.
It had been eight to nine days since she left, but he did not send any message. There must be a problem.
As the thought arose, she felt more and more suspicious. Did the jerk really not miss me at all?
Immediately, fury swept her mind, and she felt an urge to go back right away.
However, she managed to hold it back. The invasion had not stopped. As the marshal, how could she leave?
She could not do that.
She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. A dangerous vibe flashed across her eyes.
Jerk! I shall give you one more chance. I shall wait for one day—no, three… five days! If you still do not send me a message, you will be doomed!
She silently made up her mind. With a ‘hmph’, she walked to the drawing room.
In the Tiger King’s Cave…
w.a.n.g Hu once again managed to fool the two little fellows and put them to bed. He started to cultivate again.
Suddenly, he felt a weird sensation.
Did he forget something? He blinked and could not think of anything.
He thought for a few seconds and did not think further. He continued to cultivate with peace of mind.
Somehow, he felt a very subtle carefree feeling in the past few days.
This feeling felt pretty good.
