That's true. Although it has only recently developed a mind, it could still be a demon god, and cannot be viewed in the usual way.

According to her understanding, many demons seem to be born with special abilities, such as knowing languages ​​and being able to think, as well as having a high ability to distinguish between good and evil.

Su Zhe's coldness towards her was likely a sign of wariness, given his young age and status as a demon god; naturally, he would be cautious.

But this happened naturally, it doesn't mean I dislike her.

Yes, that must be it.

After figuring this out, Ningguang was no longer worried.

She kept chatting with Su Zhe about everyday things, like his favorite foods and his daily routines—all trivial matters. If the people from Li Yue saw this, they would probably be so shocked that their jaws would drop to the ground.

For Ningguang, a dignified star of Tianquan, time is money, and she can't afford to waste a moment making money. She has never been so 'bored' before.

Bai Xiao, the secretary who accompanied her, felt the same way at that moment.

She quickly and quietly moved aside and walked towards the cabin.

There are some things you can hear and know, but there are some things it's better not to know.

"By the way, Ningguang, I'd like to ask you for a favor."

Ningguang smiled slightly: "You said we have such a good relationship, so feel free to ask me anything, and I will definitely help you."

"It's nothing major. I'm looking for someone. I don't quite remember their name, but I do remember they had a nickname, 'Little Stone.' Their family used to be in the seafood business, but they later went to the Kingdom of Winter."

"Merchants who migrated to the Winter Kingdom?"

Ningguang raised an eyebrow.

She had no good feelings towards the Kingdom of Winter.

However, she is now more concerned about the relationship between the little whale and the other party.

"You know him?"

"I don't know him. I'm asking around for a friend."

“I see.” Ningguang continued with a smile, “Leave it to me, this information is enough.”

"Then I'll leave it to you. I have other things to do. Goodbye."

After saying that, Su Zhe flipped over and disappeared under the surface of the sea, walking away with great style.

"She's such an impatient person, but... it's kind of cute."

It is said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and the one you choose is naturally the best.

Under normal circumstances, who would dare to treat her like this?

But ironically, Ningguang found Su Zhe's actions perfectly reasonable and even quite comfortable.

Conversely, if Su Zhe were to be truly polite, Ning Guang would have to wonder if the fathead fish she had her eye on was truly heartless.

However, Ningguang wasn't stupid. Since Su Zhe had asked her for help, she was definitely going to take advantage of the opportunity.

In fact, it was very easy for her to find out about Sun Shi. His family sold seafood, he had a small stone, and he had moved to Dong, so it was almost impossible for them to repeat themselves.

However, Ningguang knew the news, but she didn't tell Su Zhe everything.

Instead, after each meeting, they would share some news and progress, and the rest of the time would be spent either chatting about everyday things or testing each other and pulling each other along.

Her idea was simple: once you're unfamiliar, twice you get to know each other, three or four times you become good friends, five or six times you go home to take her along, seven or eight times...

In short, Lady Ningguang has been in a very good mood lately.

...

"Is this woman deliberately keeping me hanging?"

Su Zhe was helpless.

He sought information from Ningguang because he thought it would be much easier with her status; wouldn't it be a piece of cake?

But to my surprise, it's been four days and it's still not done.

Ningguang's reason was that Winter's Land was too far away, and it would take a long time to send messages back from there.

If the child is simple-minded, they will most likely believe it.

Su Zhe didn't believe it. He knew that Sun Shi was a businessman and must have business dealings in Liyue. It wouldn't be too difficult for Ningguang to find out about this.

So he felt that Ningguang was keeping him hanging on.

But then again, Su Zhe is now in a somewhat awkward situation.

As a harmless little whale, there's nothing wrong with chatting with humans and having casual conversations, right?

But as the chat continued, problems slowly began to emerge.

At first, Ningguang only talked to him about trivial things.

But as they chatted, things got a little off, and the conversation shifted from everyday matters to major events in Liyue and personal matters.

Day 1: "Everyone knows I am Ningguang of Tianquan. Although they show me some respect when they see me, they often have other opinions behind my back, saying that my business is so big and I am so rich that I can rival a country, all because of the power of Tianquan Star. How ridiculous! Do I, Ningguang, need to rely on these things to make money in business?"

The next day: "Actually, compared to Mora, Liyue is the most important thing to me right now. As the ruler of Tianquan, it is my responsibility to protect Liyue. If necessary, I will give up everything to ensure Liyue's peace for a hundred years."

Day 3: "Speaking of which, Keqing and I are both Star Seven, but although our personalities are different, our desires are vastly different. People often compare me to her... Kyogre, next time I'll let you meet her and see if I'm prettier or she is."

Day 4: "I don't have any special requirements in my daily life. I mostly eat light meals and don't like those fancy things on the table. I do like clothes, though. I'll take a second look at the newest styles, since I often have to attend banquets... However, I don't like to wear clothes when I go to bed at night... Hehe, that's a secret, not even my secretary knows."

"By the way, there are many immortals in Liyue. In order to prevent you from getting into trouble, I will now refer to you as my 'partner' to outsiders, not a pet. You don't have any objections, do you?"

Su Zhe: "..."

What could he say? What else could he possibly say?

Whenever Ningguang brought up some rather private matters, Su Zhe could only pretend to be clueless, fully playing the role of a pure and innocent little whale.

However, he could sense that Ningguang wasn't just making conversation for the sake of it; rather, she seemed to need him to listen.

As a Tianquan star, one holds a high position and wields great power. Every move one makes is closely watched. In addition to heavy official duties, one must also pay special attention to every aspect of life. Living like this is naturally very tiring.

I have some thoughts in my mind, but I can't just talk about them with others.

Therefore, Su Zhe, the deep-sea listener, is the best person to confide in.

Moreover, sharing heartfelt thoughts can bring people closer together.

Of course, it was genuinely awkward. Su Zhe was really worried that if Ningguang found out he was actually human inside, then...

The Jade Pavilion floating in the sky shouldn't have to wait until then before it crashes down, right?

Fortunately, on the fifth day, Ningguang finally brought him news of Sun Shi.

...

"Boss, thank you so much."

Under the sea, Su Zhe relayed the message to Shi Tou.

"No need to thank me, we're brothers." Su Zhe smiled. "But are you sure you really want to go? Or should I go with you?"

"No need, boss, I can manage on my own."

Stone sticks out his glans, holding it high, looking very proud.

"I was trained by you, Boss, so I won't let you down... Besides, I'm not just going there to take a look; I also want to go out and explore. When I come back, I'll definitely be even more capable and able to help you, Boss!"

Su Zhe said with utmost seriousness, "You have always been helping me."

If it weren't for his brother Stone, who would he confide in on this vast ocean?

Throughout this journey, although Stone was timid and afraid of death, he never hesitated when faced with a challenge.

Such brothers are worth keeping for generations.

"Hehe~"

Stone smiled sheepishly.

"Goodbye, boss!"

He swam away, kicking his legs, and halfway there he stuck out his glans to look back and forth, reluctant to leave.

"Goodbye."

Su Zhe felt a mix of emotions.

Since transmigrating to this world, Stone has been his closest brother. After all, they are the same kind of people, and they can adventure in the sea together and talk about anything.

Shen He is good, of course, but unfortunately she is human and can't live underwater.

Su Zhe was naturally reluctant to see his good brother go on a long journey.

"Perhaps I should go out for a walk?"

Before, lacking strength, I only dared to hide in a corner and secretly develop.

Now at least we have the ability to protect ourselves. As long as we don't encounter sea beasts of the fourth rank or higher, we should be fine.

In addition, the sea area around Guyun Pavilion is too mysterious, making it less than ideal as a beginner's village.

"Inazuma is not bad. I remember there were many remnants of demons in that place, but they were all on the shore..."

"As for Mondstadt...right."

Su Zhe took out the map.

The location marked above seems to be in Mondstadt.

It's a place that might hold the records of the Time Demon, so it's worth a visit.

According to his understanding, the Time Lord, or rather, the Ruler of Time, is one of the four oldest rulers in Teyvat.

In addition, there are Life, Death, Emptiness, and Reason, each corresponding to a different part of the relic.

The principle is the principle of Heaven, while the other four are the four shadows that were originally divided from the principle of Heaven, holding the oldest ruling positions.

Ishtar, the ruler of time, was also a deity who was active in the ancient times.

As for any further information, Su Zhe was unaware of it. The records kept in the White Night Kingdom were taboo and generally unavailable to the average person.

If you see or know too much about something, it will bring disaster.

"Sigh~ that big snake."
