Li Ping'an regarded East Emperor Taiyi as a friend, indeed feeling a bit reluctant.
"His mental state hasn't been well lately," Li Ping'an said, "Let nature take its course with this matter, try to bear with it."
"Eh?" the Nine-tailed Fox hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with Teacher?"
"Sigh," Li Ping'an sighed, "It's just a drama of conflicting loyalty and righteousness; your teacher has always been conflicted. The last time I saw someone so twisted was Hongjun... I'm getting off track."
Li Ping'an said solemnly: "There have been some rifts between him, the Donghuang Bell, and his father, and he is currently in torment."
The Nine-tailed Fox gently bit her lip.
Li Ping'an advised: "In any case, when you arrive in Chaoge City, don't rush to meet him; let him cool off for a few years first before figuring out a way to tell him that Su Daji is Zhi Chu."
"Yes," the Nine-tailed Fox sighed, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your generosity."
