"Hey Xiangling, if you don't let go soon, Guoba might get strangled to death..."

"Oh, I'm so sorry, Guoba, I'm really sorry, I was just too excited."

Seeing Guoba struggling in her arms, Xiangling hurriedly put Guoba on the ground. Seeing her old friend being bullied like this by a little girl, Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun snorted coldly.

"Little girl, don't be too happy yet. The dishes made by my magic mechanism may not be any worse than yours."

"Now that a winner has been chosen from these two, let's also try the dishes made by this immortal."

Seeing that Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun seemed very confident in his mechanism, Xiang Ling couldn't help but feel a little nervous. If she were really defeated by that mechanism, wouldn't that prove that her years of hard-earned cooking skills were no match for a mere mechanism?

Chapter 243 The Festival of the Moon (The End)

"Su Bai, is Uncle Tian really alright...? Although he respects immortals, he wouldn't have eaten all the dishes made by True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng, would he? Now he's got food poisoning. Luckily, Bubulu isn't far from here, otherwise..."

After watching her subordinates escort Uncle Tian to Bubu Lodge, Keqing couldn't help but sigh. It seems that even immortals aren't good at everything. Indeed, it's the right thing to do for humans to govern Liyue.

Su Bai gave a wry smile. He had subtly tried to persuade Uncle Tian, ​​but Uncle Tian wouldn't listen. Fortunately, Uncle Tian didn't come away empty-handed. At least when True Lord Liu Yun Jie Feng discovered that Uncle Tian had an accident, he injected a large amount of immortal power into him. It seemed that Uncle Tian's body would be much stronger after he recovered.

"Now I know what immortals usually eat. No wonder Sister Shenhe always eats so heartily. It turns out she eats this kind of thing all day on the mountain. It must be hard for Sister Shenhe."

After seeing that Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun had flown away with her three mechanisms, Hu Tao made a comment. But as soon as she said it, a gust of wind blew her hat away.

"Hey, hey, hey, this is my hat."

Seeing that Hu Tao had gone after her hat, the remaining few exchanged glances and silently swallowed the words of complaint that were about to come out of their mouths. Hmm, it seems that True Lord Liu Yun Jie Feng hasn't gone far yet.

"Wait, look! The stone that symbolizes the Kitchen God has developed a crack!"

"Guoba, did you break the stone?"

"Lululu???"

Guoba tilted his head, looking puzzled. Xiangling breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Guoba indicated it wasn't his fault. Thank goodness, it wasn't Guoba who did it. She had previously thought that Guoba's constant circling around the rock had caused it to crack from his fire.

"Wait, something seems off about this stone. I don't know why, but I feel like there's something inside it."

Su Bai walked to the enshrined stone, and his immortal power slowly seeped into it. The cracks on the stone grew larger and larger. The Thousand Rock Army soldiers around him originally wanted to step forward to stop him, but when they saw that it was Su Bai, an immortal, who was touching the stone, they returned to their original posts. After all, only immortals truly understand the things of immortals.

Meanwhile, Granny Ping, who had originally intended to join the fun at Shi Tou, stopped in her tracks after seeing Su Bai and his friends gather around Shi Tou. The future of Li Yue ultimately belonged to these young people; this old woman shouldn't go and join the commotion. She remembered that the Emperor seemed to be drinking tea nearby; perhaps she should go and chat with him instead.

"It's cracked! It's cracked! Wait, how can this be rice crust?!"

"Lululu!"

Looking at the statue in front of him, Guoba felt a strange sense of joy. He walked around the statue with his short legs, making "lululu" noises all the time.

Unlike the shocked crowd around him, Su Bai's expression was calm. After asking Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun about the story of the Kitchen God yesterday, Su Bai had a feeling that Guo Ba, whom he often bullied, was very likely the Kitchen God, because he had felt a very strange power on Guo Ba before.

"It's really unexpected that the silly and cute rice crust is actually the highly respected Kitchen God in history."

Ying picked up Guoba and pinched Guoba's little face. Guoba gave Ying a big smile. It seemed that Guoba was no different from usual.

"Su Bai, are you going to take the rice crust away?"

"Hmm? Xiangling, why are you suddenly asking about this?"

"It's nothing, I just feel a little sad thinking about you taking Guoba to find other immortals."

Xiangling was a little downcast. She lowered her head and reluctantly patted Guoba's head. Su Bai was a little confused. When did he say he was going to take Guoba away? Had Xiangling been spending too much time with Hu Tao lately and been infected by Hu Tao's whimsical ideas?

"Goodness, Xiangling, you're overthinking it. Even if I were an immortal, I wouldn't interfere with Guoba's choices."

“I’ve heard from the True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng that the Kitchen God once exhausted his power for the people and fell into a deep sleep. Now that you have awakened him, you are the destined one for Guoba. I will not take Guoba away from you.”

"Also, Xiangling, I understand that you don't want to part with Guoba, but if you don't stop what you're doing, you might pull Guoba bald."

Seeing that Xiangling was still picking at the hair on Guoba's forehead without stopping, Su Bai had no choice but to remind her. Xiangling then looked at the large clump of hair in her hand and realized what was going on.

"Hey! Sorry, Guoba, I wasn't paying attention to what I was doing."

"Lulu~"

Guoba scratched his slightly cool forehead, not taking Xiangling's plucking of his hair to heart. Perhaps because he was exhausted, Guoba seemed even more honest and simple than the approachable Kitchen God described by Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun.

"Speaking of which, Ying, you're going to Inazuma soon, aren't you?"

"Yes, do you need me to bring a cell phone over for Yae no Miko-nee? Or should I send a cell phone to all your close female friends?"

Ying stood with her hands on her hips, looking utterly scornful. Su Bai's lips twitched. "How come she was perfectly fine this morning? After participating in a cooking competition, Ying has become so scornful. Has her true nature been revealed?"

"What is all this about? I just wanted to say that I'm also going to Inatsuma. If you want to go together, then come to the port in three days and take Hokuto-nee's ship to Inatsuma with me."

"Ahem, Ying was just joking with you, Su Bai, haha. Um, about the ship tickets, Su Bai, since you know that Captain Beidou, could you ask her for a discount?"

Upon hearing that Su Bai seemed to know the captain named Beidou, Paimon immediately sidled up to Su Bai and started chatting about their friendship. His greedy behavior made Ying feel a little embarrassed. Sure enough, it was better to cook such an embarrassing emergency food as soon as possible. If she had known that this emergency food was so embarrassing, she would have taken it to the chef competition.

"Alright, alright, stop fooling around. Grandma Ping has already posted the story of the Kitchen God in the group. If you're interested, you can go and take a look. Speaking of which, who gave Grandma Ping her phone? Was it Sister Gan Yu?"

Just as Su Bai was wondering, in a pavilion in Yuehaiting, Ruo Tuo was explaining to Grandma Ping how to use her phone, while Zhong Li looked somewhat troubled.

You said you were going to demonstrate how to use a phone to A-Ping, but instead you snatched it away. Well, looks like I'll have to go check on Xiao at Wangshu Inn later.

“I remember that young man named Abedo said that the latest version of the phone has been successfully developed. If that’s the case, I’ll just go and get one on my way.”

Chapter 244 Preparations Before Departure

"Hu Tao, are you sure you want to go to Inazuma on Beidou's boat? What about the Resurrection Halls in Liyue and Mondstadt?"

"Well, with a mobile phone as a tool that allows for remote command, even if we encounter any problems, I can answer them. Besides, Liyue and Mondstadt are peaceful right now, so there aren't many places where we can use our Hall of Rebirth."

“But Inazuma is different. Su Bai, didn’t you say Inazuma is very chaotic? Well then, this hall master will go and expand his business.”

As Hu Tao packed her luggage, she pondered what else she should bring. After all, Grandma Ping had given her a lot of small bags with built-in compartments a few days ago, which would be perfect for storing coffins and such.

Su Bai's face twitched. He was now filled with regret. If he had known that Hu Tao would think this way, he wouldn't have told Hu Tao about Dao Qi's recent situation. Now, the place Su Bai didn't want her to go was the place Hu Tao was most interested in.

"Kurumi, Inazuma has been carrying out the Eye Hunt Order lately. Aren't you afraid that your God Eye will be stolen by Inazuma's shogunate army? Who knows, Raijin might suddenly appear and slash you."

"Rest assured, for safety reasons, I have already made preparations."

Su Bai deliberately exaggerated the situation to discourage Hu Tao, but Hu Tao seemed confident. Looking at the coffin, which was now mostly empty, Hu Tao patted the dust off her hands with satisfaction.

If all goes well, she should be able to make a fortune in Inazuma this time. If she can establish a reputation for cheap and high-quality coffins, then her Inazuma branch should be able to successfully open in Inazuma.

"Preparations? Hu Tao, what preparations have you made? Do you need me to do a divination for you?"

Mona, who was outside researching which ingredients best complement slime gel, heard what Hu Tao was saying and came over to join in the fun. Su Bai rolled her eyes at Mona, wondering what Mona had divined. Originally, Mona wanted to go to Inazuma with them, but after a night of divination, she refused to go with them.

"Hmph, I have already persuaded Zhongli and Sister Zhongtuo to accompany me to Daoqi. How about it? With two immortals protecting us, I don't believe we can encounter any danger."

After hearing Hu Tao's preparations, Su Bai swallowed his words again. Hu Tao, with the Staff of the Homa, was already very strong. With the help of the two immortals, Zhong Li and Zhong Tuo, as long as she didn't encounter that old woman Ying, Hu Tao could basically do whatever she wanted in Inazuma.

"How was it? Was I well prepared this time?"

"Yes, that's plenty of time. I won't bother you any longer while you pack, Hu Tao..."

Su Bai remained silent for a while before walking out of the Hall of Rebirth. If he had known that Hu Tao was so well-prepared, he wouldn't have wasted his breath. Damn it, if Zhong Li and Zhong Tuo had been with him when he went to Daoqi back then, he wouldn't have been tricked by that pink-haired fox so many times. Sigh, just thinking about it brings tears to my eyes.

Looking from the docks of Liyue Harbor towards Guyun Pavilion, the massive Death Star is moored near Guyun Pavilion, and its owner is chatting and laughing with Ningguang, one of the leaders of Liyue, on the dock.

"Ningguang, are you so sure that traveler can solve Inazuma's problem? You're starting to buy up the supplies that Inazuma is lacking right now, aren't you afraid of losing everything? Let me tell you in advance, if you lose money, you can't get my transportation fees for nothing. I still have a whole bunch of brothers to support."

"Hehe, Beidou, we've been working together for so many years, and I've never let you work for free without paying Mora. Don't worry, I believe in the Traveler's abilities. Besides, Su Bai is also going to Inazuma this time. Given his relationship with the Traveler, even if the Traveler fails, his life won't be in any danger."

Ningguang gazed at the distant Dark Star, seemingly lost in thought, while Beidou, standing beside her, asked with some concern.

"If the traveler fails, won't you lose money? Then I won't be able to freeload off you anymore."

"It's just a small amount of money, not worth mentioning. But if you want to come here for a free meal, Beidou, you're very welcome."

"Alright, just tell me, what do you want my help with this time?"

Beidou rolled her eyes at Ningguang. Every time Ningguang spoke to her in that foxy tone, she definitely wanted something from her, and it was something she didn't want to ask for money. Sigh, she didn't know why, even though she knew Ningguang wanted to get a free girlfriend, she just couldn't help but want to help Ningguang.

Seeing that she had achieved her goal, Ningguang revealed a sly smile of triumph. She smiled lightly, her tone full of joy.

"Actually, it's nothing serious, it's just that I need your help with a small thing for the Lantern Festival a few months from now."

"A small favor? Sure, but you'll have to treat me to meals."

"Don't worry, this time we'll not only provide meals, but also give you a good reward."

"Wait a minute, why do I feel like I've been tricked by you again?"

Realizing she had fallen for Ningguang's tricks again, Beidou pursed her lips and jumped into the small boat on the shore. Damn it, she couldn't talk to this fox Ningguang anymore. If she did, she might be completely fooled by Ningguang.

"I'm not talking to you anymore. If I keep talking to you, I'm afraid I'll give you the entire Southern Cross fleet. I'm leaving now. We'll keep in touch by phone from now on. This new phone has so many new features, I'll just have to try it out on you."

"Yes, just contact me by phone if anything comes up. Speaking of which, Beidou, if you encounter anything you can't decide on, I can give you some advice."

"That's a good idea. If I ever encounter any unscrupulous merchants again, I'll have Ningguang figure out how to deal with them."

Beidou's eyes lit up. Her fleet had encountered many unscrupulous merchants while sailing through various countries. Now that she had a mobile phone, she could have Ningguang provide remote assistance. Brilliant! She wanted to see whether Ningguang's methods were superior or those unscrupulous merchants were more cunning.

After watching Beidou sail away in his small boat, Ningguang's eyes flashed with a hint of reluctance. To be honest, Beidou was one of her few friends, and it was only in front of Beidou that she would let down her guard. Now that Beidou was leaving, she was indeed a little sad.

On the Death Star, which was already bustling, it became even more noisy. When Beidou boarded the ship, he was surprised to find that Hu Tao had brought two large buckets of milk tea and was distributing them on the Death Star.

This thrilled the sailors who had been unable to buy milk tea. Not only that, but Kurumi also became friends with the children on the ship thanks to the milk tea. It's a pity that Klee went back to Mondstadt with Abedo, otherwise Klee would have had a lot of fun with these children.

"Master Hu, are you planning to open the Rebirth Hall in Inazuma? Why are you even bringing along the guest elders of the Rebirth Hall?"

Seeing Hu Tao board the boat with her family, Bei Dou couldn't help but tease her. Hu Tao handed Bei Dou a cup of milk tea and chuckled.

"Hehe, Sister Beidou, you're absolutely right. This master really does have that plan in mind."

Chapter 245 Sea Voyage

"Hey Su Bai, stop dawdling with your girlfriend. If you keep dawdling, I'm really going to leave you here at Guyun Pavilion and head straight there."

Beidou felt a bit of a toothache looking at the two of them dawdling in front of her. Damn it, she and Ningguang weren't even this long-winded when they parted. She didn't expect Su Bai, this immortal, to give her a dose of dog food in Guyun Pavilion.

"Sister Shenhe, it's time for me to leave too. You can go back without worry. I will definitely take good care of myself."

"If anyone bullies you, write down their name. If my master approves my trip to Inazuma in the future, I will personally avenge you."

As he spoke, Shen He took out a small piece of extremely hard crystal ore and, under Bei Dou's shocked gaze, crushed it into powder. Watching the powder dissipate in the wind, Bei Dou looked at Su Bai with a hint of pity. Someone with such abilities must be no ordinary person, Su Bai's girlfriend must be extraordinary as well.

"Sister Shenhe, don't you believe in my strength? If anyone dares to bully me, I will definitely take revenge."

He was someone who could do whatever he wanted in Inazuma's eyes. If anyone dared to bully him, not only would Su Bai take action himself, but Yae no Miko and Hana Sanri would also teach that person a lesson they would never forget.
