Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

Chapter 323: The Demon God Descends?

The person who arrived was Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe. She looked at Zhongli and Paimeng with doubt in her eyes.

What do they talk about in public?

How can we make these young men and beautiful women blush?

Could it be...?

As if she had thought of something, a light shone in Qian Renxue's eyes—a light of hope!

Could it be that Zhongli has figured it out? This "figured it out" is quite profound.

For example, unclogging drain pipes.

"Qinghe, I'm talking to Paimon about some clothing and fashion."

"On a whim, I couldn't help but say a few more words."

Zhong Li said without changing his expression, "He didn't say anything, did he?"

It's just a misunderstanding by these young people.

I don't know why they're blushing.

Even this old man who has lived for thousands of years has such a strong ability to learn; these young people...

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue frowned. Could it be that she had misunderstood again?

Looking around at the people present, the men seemed unremarkable, but the women were the main concern. They were dressed in impoverished short skirts, with black stockings wrapped around their legs and small coats draped over their shoulders.

How should I put it? I always feel that it's somewhat indecent and immoral.

It's not that Qian Renxue is traditional, it's just that she finds it a little hard to accept right now.

She had only been back for a short time, and along the way she had encountered many women dressed like this, but she hadn't paid close attention to them.

It's not proper for a dignified "Crown Prince" to be staring at a woman like this.

"Is this the kind of outfit you were talking about, my guest?"

Zhong Li's eyes twitched slightly. He merely glanced at it with an appreciative gaze, or perhaps a "critical" look.

After all, it was produced by our own industry.

Seeing Zhongli's hesitant expression, Qian Renxue seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes lit up again, like the brightest star in the darkest night.

"Guest, I have some matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."

"By the way, Qibao Hotel has recently launched some new dishes. Guest Elder and Paimon could go and try them out."

After saying this, Qian Renxue left in a hurry, just as she had come in a hurry.

"well……"

"They hadn't even exchanged two words before Qinghe left?"

Paimon scratched his head, looking somewhat puzzled.

This was the first time she had ever seen Xue Qinghe so anxious; it really seemed like something urgent had happened.

But she was perfectly fine when she arrived.

"Zhongli, Qinghe said Qibao Hotel has new dishes!"

"Should we give it a try?"

Paimon stared wide-eyed, a hint of tears glistening at the corner of his mouth.

Paimon has a great obsession with food.

Especially when it comes to food.

When traveling with travelers, the monthly expenses of 300,000 Mora are no joke.

Many indigenous people don't even have 300,000 mora in savings from the first half of their lives.

Although Zhongli doesn't usually carry much money, he's actually not short of cash right now.

Glancing at Qian Renxue's back, Zhong Li had a feeling that she deliberately said the second half of the sentence, with the aim of getting him to go to Qibao Hotel.

As for the purpose, Zhong Li was not clear.

"Let's go check out the new dishes Qinghe recommended."

There was something Zhongli didn't say.

Let's also see what kind of medicine Qianrenxue is selling in his gourd.

There must have been a reason why she deliberately took him and Paimon to the Qibao Hotel.

"Yay!"

Paimon looked excited, his emotions written all over his face.

"There's delicious food again!"

Suddenly, Paimon seemed to remember something, his face fell, and he leaned close to Zhong Li, whispering, "Zhong Li, did you bring any money this time?"

Zhong Li: "..."

When did he pay for the Qibao Hotel?

"Hanging on the seven-jeweled glazed tile..."

At this point, Zhong Li paused slightly. He remembered making a deal with Ning Fengzhi, which allowed Ning Fengzhi to successfully break the curse of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and evolve his martial soul into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

This transaction also repaid the favor owed to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

From now on, we can live far apart and not bother each other.

If it continues to be displayed on the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's banner, it will generate some goodwill.

"Let's hang it on the Crown Prince's tent."

Anyway, it was this "Crown Prince" who sent them, so it's perfectly reasonable for it to be displayed in the Crown Prince's residence.

Paimon nodded meaningfully, which was why she asked Zhongli if he had brought any money.

Everyone says Paimon is a bit silly, but sometimes she's quite lucid!

They handle interpersonal relationships and social niceties with ease.

Of course, this was just a rare moment of clarity for her.

"Paimon, why do you seem to have grown a little bit?"

On the way to Qibao Hotel, Zhong Li spoke casually, as if it were just a casual chat.

Upon hearing this, Paimon paused slightly, his smile faltering as if he had lost his train of thought.

The next moment, she returned to normal.

"Is...is that so?"

"Zhongli, you must have seen wrong, right?"

"Paimon has always been this big!"

Paimon put his hands on his hips and said, his tone neither righteous nor confident.

Based on her performance, Zhong Li fell silent.

Was it intentional or accidental?

If she's acting so guilty on purpose, what is she trying to hide?

If she didn't do it on purpose, there must be a reason for her guilty conscience.

Has her injury healed somewhat?

Zhong Li glanced at Paimon before looking away.

"I must have misread it."

What level of strength does Zhongli possess?

It's no exaggeration to say that his eyes are like rulers.

How could I be wrong?

"I wonder what kind of strength and abilities Paimon possesses."

The unknown is the most terrifying thing.

Once you know everything, your way of thinking becomes much simpler.

Seeing that Zhongli had "committed" the letter, Paimeng breathed a sigh of relief.

He followed slowly beside Zhong Li, his gaze flickering between light and shadow.

"Zhongli, what do you think would happen if one day, people or demons from the Teyvat continent descended upon the Douluo Continent?"

Paimon asked tentatively, seemingly casually, as if it were just a casual question.

"That depends on who is being descended upon."

If some strange demon gods were to descend upon the Douluo Continent, it would be a catastrophic disaster for the continent.

Not all demons are so gentle with their people.

This refers to demons, not the seven ruling powers of the mortal realm.

"Like O'Sullivan?"

Zhong Li: "..."

A demon god like Oser is already incredibly powerful and terrifying.

They were suppressed twice by Liyue.

"It'll probably unleash a horrific massacre, and turn the land into an ocean in the process."

What war?

It was just a one-sided massacre.

Oser, considered a sea god, possesses terrifying power.

However, He was facing an even more terrifying being...

Upon hearing this, Paimon's face showed a hint of hesitation and reluctance, but as if she had thought of something, she gritted her teeth and made up her mind.

Time is running out in Teyvat.

"Zhongli, you are one of the oldest and most powerful demon gods. I believe you can solve all of this."

Paimon has indeed grown up a bit and regained some of his memories.
