Chapter 238: Past Events (Kiss His Ass)
After changing clothes and walking out of the laboratory, Chen Yue got back into the elevator and pressed the button leading to the collection room.
Kitsunesai was still reading the scroll of Impure World Reincarnation, but the expression on her face at this moment could no longer be described as shocked.
"Haha, this may be a little too advanced for you. It's normal that you can't understand it. If you can understand it at first glance, I will doubt the authenticity of my research."
Chen Yue's words interrupted Hu Zhaigong's contemplation. She raised her head, her eyes flashing with curiosity and awe of the unknown, with a bitter smile on her lips: "I really don't understand it very well, but I can probably understand it."
Chen Yue smiled gently, walked to Hu Zhaigong, stretched out his hand, took the scroll from her hand, and patted her shoulder gently.
"This world is far more complicated than you think. What you see is just the tip of the iceberg. I have a lot of space here. If you don't like it, you can change it here. It's no problem."
"Forget it. These scrolls look very old. I won't be able to read them even if I change them. So I don't want this kind of gift."
Hu Zaigong shook her head gently, and a barely perceptible sense of loss appeared on her beautiful face.
Chen Yue keenly caught this subtle change, and his mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a gentle smile. He carefully put the scroll in his hand back to its original place, then walked lightly to the side of Hu Zhaigong and gently patted her shoulder.
Chen Yue said softly, "If this gift is not to your liking, I will change it for another one. Liyue has many mouth-watering delicacies that you may not have tasted. You and Zhen can taste them tonight."
Changing the subject, Chen Yue suddenly asked in a playful tone, "However, should we also settle the friendship fee between us?"
Hu Zhaigong was startled for a moment, then smiled, waved his arms, and his beautiful eyes flashed with a smart and naughty light, just like a cunning little fox.
She responded in a delicate voice: "Oh? Are you asking me for a debt? Well, then I'll show you what a real 'bad friend' is!"
Chen Yue nodded to show his agreement, "Okay, then I'll thank Lord Palace Administrator in advance." After that, Chen Yue took Hu Zhaigong towards the elevator.
Looking at Chen Yue's back, Hu Zhaigong's face revealed an imperceptible loneliness. "Chen Yixuan, I have a question, I hope you can tell me the truth."
......
As night fell, countless sea lanterns lit up, emitting warm light, dotting Liyue Harbor like stars. The entire harbor was brightly lit, just like daytime.
“I never thought that our Liyue could attract a foreign god to come in person. This truly makes me, the master of Liyue, feel deeply honored.”
Zhongli took a sip of tea, his eyes fell on Zhen, a faint smile on his face, and said softly.
Zhen smiled unnaturally and waved his hands quickly, saying, "Ah, haha, well... I came here just to experience the feeling of walking in the world as a mortal like you. So there is no need to mention things about identity here. You just need to treat me as an ordinary foreign tourist."
Zhen Zhen's tone seemed a little embarrassed, as if she was a little embarrassed about her identity as a god. After all, the one in front of her was the oldest demon god in the world, Morax!
After hearing this, Zhongli raised the corners of his mouth slightly and smiled. He nodded slowly and said softly: "In this case, I will entertain you, the guest from afar, as an ordinary Liyue citizen." After that, Zhongli slowly stood up and prepared to lead Zhen to the market in Liyue Harbor.
"No need, no need, I can just walk by myself." Zhen waved his hands quickly, with a hint of shyness on his face.
She would rather be able to stroll freely on the streets of Liyue like an ordinary mortal and experience the local customs and culture firsthand, rather than being treated as a VIP.
Zhongli naturally understood what she was really thinking. He did not force her, but just kept a gentle smile on his face and spoke softly.
"In that case, feel free to wander around. However, there are many interesting stories and delicious food hidden in the streets and alleys of Liyue Harbor at night. I hope you can enjoy this time to the fullest." After saying this, Zhongli stared at Zhen quietly, with a hint of concern in his eyes.
Zhen nodded, watched Zhongli leave, and then took a step forward and walked outside.
"Look at Saigū. I told you that with your personality, you would never stay in the same room with Shin for more than an hour."
Looking at Zhen walking out of the teahouse, Chen Yue said to Hu Zhaigong who was standing beside him.
Hearing this, Kitsaigong couldn't help but chuckle with his hands covering his mouth, his eyes flashing with a playful light: "Oh, you always like to tease others. But then again, she is really brave, she dares to be in the same room with such a serious god."
Chen Yue laughed and shook his head. "Serious? Are you talking about Morax? That guy is more than serious, he's a rock! His personality is as cold and hard as an iceberg that has not melted for thousands of years. It's hard for others to feel any warmth and tenderness from him. But then again, although she looks a little silly, she is actually full of wisdom and cunning deep in her heart."
The two chatted and laughed as they walked towards Zhen. At this time, Zhen had already walked out of the teahouse and was standing on the street of Liyue Port, looking around curiously.
"Really? How is it? How do you feel?" Chen Yue walked forward and asked with a smile.
Zhen turned around and couldn't help but smile bitterly. "To be honest, it's not very good. The atmosphere made me feel a little breathless. Although Morax acted very gentle and kind. The majesty and solemnity he exuded was like a heavy mountain pressing on my heart, which really made me a little nervous."
Chen Yue heard this and couldn't help but comfort him, "It's okay, Zhen. You don't need to care too much about the emperor's identity and majesty. Since he is willing to talk to you, it means that he doesn't treat you as an outsider."
"Your situation is already very good. Last time the Wind God from next door came here, the Emperor even asked me to receive him. Just like this."
As he spoke, Chen Yue pulled out a green figure from the alley next to him. This person was none other than the Wind God from Mond next door, who was hiding in the alley stealthily, eavesdropping on the conversation of several people, Wendy.
"For a god like this who doesn't do his job, I usually kiss his butt with the back of my foot."
