When Paimeng's little fish monster was about to release a tidal attack, Su Chen continued his high-speed attack. How could Paimeng's small body withstand it?

Soon, Paimon felt the effect again, and the second wave of tidal attacks came again. However, for Su Chen, whose level had already reached an unprecedented high, this was simply child's play. It was not even as ferocious as the attack of Yingmei's Iron Armored Molten Emperor, and he took it easily.

But now, Paimeng no longer cared about so much. She just wanted to drink the coconut milk that Su Chen gave her.

"Paimon's performance tonight was also good, so I'll reward you with some delicious coconut juice!"

As he spoke, Su Chen controlled the coconut juice-producing machine and released Dawn towards Paimon's little fish monster.

The next moment, a large amount of water elemental power gushed out, and coconut milk entered Paimon's little mouth.

Paimeng finally got to drink Su Chen's coconut milk as he wished, and then collapsed completely.

Tonight, the three of them had finally finished their intense training, and they fell asleep snuggling up to each other.

Chapter 148: Encounter with the -meter-tall True Lord

Early the next morning, Su Chen went out to exercise and practiced the anal lifting secret he had learned yesterday.

After all, as I have more and more women, it will be normal to have several battles in a row in the future, so I have to exercise.

Just when Su Chen went out to exercise, he suddenly saw a man with tattoos clearing out a few hillbillies in a reed marsh not far away.

Su Chen looked carefully and found that this big man with flowery arms was none other than the demon-slayer Xiao.

Xiao, this name is well-known in the world of monsters and demons.

He looked so young, as if he had just entered adolescence, but in fact, he had lived for more than two thousand years.

In the past two thousand years, he has gone through many hardships, subdued demons and eliminated monsters, and became a legend among the people of Liyue.

His hair is a unique cyan gradient, from light to dark, as if it is changing from the blue sky to the deep sea. Such hair is particularly bright in the sun, giving people a mysterious and inviolable feeling.

The "wisdom eye" in the middle of his forehead is his symbol. It is the result of his thousands of years of practice. It can see through all illusions and recognize the truth from falsehood.

Xiao's costume is also very classic, which is the battle robe he has been sticking to for thousands of years. The main body is white, with deformed cloud patterns embroidered on it, as if it is the flowing clouds in the sky, ethereal and elusive.

His sleeves were wide, with ribbons fluttering in the wind, and the back of his clothes swaying in the wind, as if he were a fairy in the clouds.

He has jade pendant-like ornaments on his legs, cuffs and shoulders, which he collected from all over the place, and each piece has its own unique story.

On his wrist he wore a piece of rustic armor with some ancient runes carved on it, which was said to be a powerful protective spell.

There is a small incense burner hanging on his left waist, which he uses to exorcise evil spirits. The incense burning in it is a special kind of incense that can dispel all evil spirits.

The Nuo mask on his right waist is his other side. When he puts on that mask, he becomes another person. That is his other side, that is his true face.

In general, Xiao is a person full of mystery and charm. Every detail of him is full of stories, and every action of his is full of power.

Su Chen actually had no intention of getting close to the immortal Xiao, after all, he was not a female character. But on second thought, Xiao was an immortal from Liyue and also a capable general under the command of the Geo King Morax. If he could get close to him, maybe he could establish a good relationship with Morax in the future and pave the way for the Emperor to transform into a female.

(Ask all readers, should we write a plot where the emperor transforms into a female body and the protagonist takes her into his harem?)

Su Chen was secretly amazed in his heart and was about to step forward to say hello, but suddenly he felt a sense of crisis.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a few thunder archers and hillbillies lying in ambush in the reed marsh nearby, drawing their bows and drawing arrows, ready to shoot a sneak attack on Xiao.

Su Chen knew that the archery skills of these Hillichells were very accurate, and if they shot an arrow, the fighting Xiao would inevitably be injured.

So, without saying anything, Su Chen quickly condensed the power of thunder element and turned it into several thunder element arrows.

His arrows drew streaks of lightning in the air, and combined with his superb hunter archery skills, he accurately hit the hillbillies.

Those hillbillies were struck by lightning, their bodies were instantly paralyzed, and they fell to the ground.

Su Chen walked closer to Xiao and wanted to say hello to him, but was stopped by Xiao.

There was a hint of worry in Xiao's eyes, and he said, "Stay away from me, it's not safe here."

Su Chen's heart moved, and he guessed that Xiao's worry was due to his own karma.

He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I am also the owner of the Eye of God and will not be affected by karma."

Xiao looked at the defeated Hilichurls, then looked at Su Chen, and only then did he feel relieved.

He said, "Since you helped me, I should do you a favor."

Su Chen smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Brother Immortal."

"What do you want me to help you with?"

"I have a story here, you should listen to it first." Then, the two came to a towering rock.

On the rock, two figures, one tall and one short, stood upright. The short figure was naturally the 1.58-meter-tall True Lord.

After all, height is always Xiao's pain.

"In this way, those heroes have been remembered for centuries, and their reputations will live on forever. However, the only surviving heroic young man was also tortured by the sins of killing committed during years of war. However, in order to protect the people and to abide by the oath he had made, he continued to fight."

"To protect the people you cherish, what does it matter if you kill people all over?" "Because the sacrifices of those heroes have brought peace and prosperity to countless people, all the people are grateful to them, and their stories are still circulating in the city."

"So, one person's karma brought peace to countless people. Do you think that the killing of that hero can still be considered a sin?"

After listening to Su Chen's story, Xiao's expression froze. Phantoms seemed to appear in front of his eyes, and his dead comrades appeared before his eyes one by one. In the end, only he survived.

If one person's karma brings peace to countless people, can this still be considered a sin?

Listening to Su Chen's words, the lock in Xiao's heart seemed to be suddenly unlocked.

For a long time, Xiao has been guarding near the Wangshu Inn, killing non-stop, trying to ease the pain in his heart. However, after so many years, neither the mental illness nor the karma in his body has subsided.

But I didn't expect that just by listening to this man's story today, the knot in my heart was completely untied.

"Okay, now that the story is over, I'm going to have breakfast too."

Su Chen yawned lazily and prepared to turn around and leave.

"Wait...your name."

Su Chen turned around and heard Xiao's voice.

"Su Chen." He responded softly, with a deep light flashing in his eyes.

Not far away, Xiao stood quietly, his figure seemed to blend into the land. His eyes revealed curiosity and vigilance towards Su Chen.

Xiao never interacts with others easily. He looks cold and speaks few words, but his heart is full of curiosity about the world and memories of the past.

Su Chen's words seemed to touch a sensitive chord in Xiao's heart. He recalled those years when he fought side by side with his comrades, for his hometown and for his beliefs, at all costs.

But time seems to have erased those vows and beliefs, leaving only endless fatigue and confusion.

Xiao took a deep breath, trying to calm his heart, and said softly: "Thank you, Su Chen." Although his voice was flat, every word was full of emotion.

Su Chen smiled slightly, walked to Xiao's side, and said softly: "You're welcome. Everyone has their own story and their own pain. But sometimes, we need a voice from the outside world to awaken the voice deep in our hearts."

Xiao nodded silently. He knew that what Su Chen said was right. He used to be a young hero like that, but now, he just wanted to find a quiet place and live a simple life.

The two stood side by side, as if time had stopped. Xiao suddenly turned around, looked at Su Chen deeply, and then turned away. He knew that from now on, his life would be different.

Su Chen looked at Xiao's back, and he felt a little emotional. He knew that his story might just be an episode in Xiao's life, but he hoped that this episode could bring some inspiration to Xiao and help him find himself again.

The sun gradually rises, and the golden sunlight shines on the earth, bringing warmth and hope to this land.

Su Chen smiled slightly, turned around and left, walking towards the inn's dining hall.

……

Chapter 149: The Greedy Astrologer Mona

After saying goodbye to Xiao, Su Chen went to a small restaurant and ate a lot of nourishing meals, such as leek buns, oysters and seafood, leek scrambled eggs, yam and wolfberry porridge, etc.

The sunlight shines through the window lattice and onto the table of the small restaurant, adding a bit of warmth to this morning.

Su Chen sat by the window, with a sumptuous breakfast in front of him. He picked up a leek bun with chopsticks and took a bite. The heat and the aroma of leeks immediately filled his mouth.

He savored the food carefully, as if he could feel the freshness of every ingredient and the chef's dedication.

Then, he took another sip of the yam and wolfberry porridge. The porridge had a smooth texture, and the flavors of yam and wolfberry were intertwined together, making people feel relaxed and happy.

Just as Su Chen was immersed in this world of delicious food, the shop door was pushed open and Mona walked in hurriedly.

After seeing Su Chen coming back with breakfast, Mona acted as if she had found a life-saving straw and jumped directly into Su Chen's arms.

Her twin ponytails fluttered in the wind, and her eyes were filled with anxiety: "Su Chen, go back and check, there is a ghost in my room!"

"Is your destined person the one who lets you take advantage of him/her every day like this?" Su Chen also unceremoniously embraced the girl with twin ponytails who rushed over to him, with a half-smile on his face.

"Ah? No, I'm sorry." Mona realized at this time that she had lacked self-respect. Coupled with what happened last night, when she thought of that scene, her little face turned red, and she put her palm on Su Chen's chest and tried to push him away.

However, as soon as I touched Su Chen's chest, I felt something hard. Could it be the pectoral muscle?

No, no, it’s already this late and there’s a ghost behind me, how can I even think about this!

Mona shook her head and looked behind her fearfully.

Su Chen put down his chopsticks and looked at Mona's frightened look. He knew that Mona had always been afraid of ghosts, which was also her weakness. He gently held Mona's hand and tried to comfort her: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Mona raised her head with tears in her eyes: “I’m really scared, can you go back with me?”

"What happened?" Su Chen asked.

"I just saw a ghost in the room." "He was still slowly approaching me, as if he was asking something." "He looked like he was going to eat me."

Hearing Mona's answer, Su Chen couldn't help but think in his heart.

What's going on? How come besides Wangshu Inn, this inn is also haunted? Is this a feature of Liyue?

Although Su Chen didn't care too much about it, after all, it was normal to have ghosts in Liyue, but Mona beside him was very scared.

Su Chen nodded. He decided to settle Mona first and then go check. The two walked into the room. Everything seemed so normal. Su Chen began to use his ability to explore and indeed felt a strange breath.

"You rest in my room first, I'll go check it out." Su Chen said.

Mona nodded. Although she was reluctant to leave Su Chen, she knew that Su Chen was doing it for her own good.

Their eyes met, and at that moment, there seemed to be an indescribable tacit understanding between them.

Mona snuggled gently in Su Chen's arms, her heart beating faster, but she knew that as long as Su Chen was there, she would not be afraid.

"Is it really possible?" Mona raised her head, looked at Su Chen and asked.

"Of course, my bed is nice and soft, there is no ghost, only a python."

"Huh? Why is there a snake in your bed?"

Mona had already put the ghost behind her mind at this moment and was very interested in Su Chen's answer. Could it be that her destined person liked to put snakes in the quilt when she slept?

"Of course. I'll show you this python some other day. He can perform all kinds of acrobatics and even foam at the mouth."

"Wait, wait, can you please stop discussing whether it is a snake or not? There are ghosts in this inn!"

Mona looked like the type who was both naive and playful, so Su Chen thought about it, and then said to Mona in a serious manner:

"We can quietly follow the ghost and see what he wants to do. I heard that a wealthy businessman from another place was frightened by a ghost, and now he is offering a reward of 30 Mora to anyone who can find out what the ghost wants to do and then eliminate it."

After hearing Su Chen's words, Mona, whose legs were trembling, was no longer afraid.

Seeing Mona like this, Su Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it turns out that astrologers have such a strong desire to make money!

If I had known earlier, I would have spent more money, let her fall step by step, and climb into my bed obediently, and I wouldn't have to put in so much effort.

When Mona heard Su Chen's words, her eyes lit up instantly, as if she had seen a mountain of gold.

She held Su Chen's arm tightly, her eyes full of expectation: "Is this really the case?"

Su Chen smiled mysteriously and whispered, "Do you think I would lie to you?"

Mona bit her lower lip, obviously attracted by Su Chen's words, but also a little bit unbelieving.

She asked cautiously, "Is that ghost really that powerful?"

Su Chen patted Mona's head gently, with a hint of pampering in his tone: "Don't worry, I'm here, and I won't let anything happen to you."

Mona's face flushed, and she hummed softly to show her understanding. Then, she whispered, "Can the 30 Mora really be split -?"

Su Chen smiled and nodded: "Of course, we are partners, so we must distribute it fairly."

When Mona heard this, she felt relieved and smiled. She knew that Su Chen was a man who would keep his word, and if he promised, he would definitely do it.

The two walked side by side on the stone road. Liyue City seemed particularly peaceful in the night. The lanterns on the roadside swayed, emitting a soft light, adding a bit of mystery to this ancient city.
