Zhutian: Starting from being forced to bind

This seedling always makes him feel a sense of disharmony.

A little red-haired girl. The golden finger hints that she is talented in swordsmanship, which is fine. The problem is her name. Her name is Leila.

All three elements are gathered together. Looking at each other, Chen Xi can't help but think of Leila in the "Lance" series, especially the plot of "Sengoku Lance", who is so miserable.

No matter what I think, I have to accept it. I believe that with my training, the Leila in this world will not follow the same path as the Leila in the next world.

So, after Amid, Chen Xi once again accepted a new dependent, the 8-year-old Leila.

This god has really become a nanny. Apart from taking care of children, she also cooks every day.

Now that they have arrived in another world, what will be taught to Leila is naturally the swordsmanship from that world. After she has a certain foundation, then we can consider teaching her the swordsmanship from the martial arts world.

It doesn't matter if you don't have internal strength, it doesn't affect the use of swordsmanship. This is how Kawakami Tomie fights now. She uses the extremely sharp Bixue Zhaodanqing and combines it with various swordsmanship. She is invincible in the dungeon.

The cooperation with Astraea's family was also going smoothly. Chen Xi didn't need to worry about it at all. He could just let Kawakami Tomie go alone.

Chen Xi handed the task of training the two new recruits over to Esdeath. This girl had a strong sense of responsibility and would take good care of her companions. She would not be sad if their companions died in battle.

Esdeath hasn't changed. She still has the same personality and advocates the law of the jungle. It's not easy to be recognized by her. At least you have to let her see you working hard. She looks down on people who just eat and wait to die.

Fortunately, Amid and Leila are not that kind of people, they work very hard.

Three months after arriving in this world, Chen Xi had basically visited all of Orario. He wouldn't dare say that he had met all of the children, but at least he had met about 80% of them. Except for Amid in the original book, there were only three children in total that caught his eye.

After Leila, there are Camilla, who is good at magic, and Zoe, who is good at archery. What a coincidence, they are both girls.

Chen Xi's clan has become a real female army, without a single male child. He is also very depressed, wondering if all the growth talents of the male children in this world have been snatched away by that boy Bell?

Esdeath once again made a sensation throughout Orario. She upgraded to LV2, faster than Ai Si.

The adventurers of Orario were divided into two factions because of this. One faction felt that it was no big deal. Esdeath was two years older than her and she didn't start from scratch when she became an adventurer, so it was nothing.

The objectors also have reasons to support their argument. They say that even if Esdeath is not considered a newcomer, if the growth time is doubled, it will only be half a year, which is better than the one year of Ess, right?

The parties involved didn't have any ideas, but the adventurers were arguing with each other.

Chen Xi updated Esdeath's status. This girl was really ruthless. She actually upgraded with all attributes at 999. She had no idea how much she had suffered for this and had almost died several times.

After upgrading to LV2, Esdeath awakened a skill called "The Strongest Ambition". The effect is similar to "Undivided Admiration", both of which are passive gain skills.

As long as Esdeath has the desire to become stronger, her upgrade efficiency will increase. According to the introduction, the gain effect should not be as good as "Devoted to Oneself", but it is also very good.

This is equivalent to having a permanent buff that doubles your experience when playing the game, and it is likely to be more than just doubling it.

Chen Xi was not sure whether he could copy this passive skill when he left, but on second thought, even if he copied it, it would not be of much use to him.

Esdeath wanted to become stronger from the bottom of her heart and was almost obsessed with it, but he was not like that. He just went with the flow and did not have such a deep obsession at all.

Chen Xi also wants to become stronger, but his strengthening is based on the premise of safety. He will not take risks to become stronger. To put it bluntly, he does not have the heart to become strong.

For such a person, even if he had the 'strongest ambition' buff, the benefit he could get would probably be pitifully small.

Chen Xi is very open-minded and doesn't count on this, as it is of no use to him.

Because of Esdeath, the Dawn clan became completely famous. Many people wanted to join, but Chen Xi didn't want any of them. He looked down on ordinary people.

The art studio that I had originally planned to open has not been opened yet. I have already checked on those children, so why open another studio?

Chen Xi used the money brought by the wealth buff to open a private restaurant. The prices are extremely high and not affordable for ordinary people. Ordinary clansmen and adventurers should forget about coming here to consume.

The reason Chen Xi did this was to get high-energy ingredients. He set rules: either the customer paid and he would provide the skills and ingredients at a very high price, or the customer could bring the ingredients themselves and he would charge half of the ingredients as service fee.

The monsters in this world turned into ashes after being killed, but there were quite a few wild beasts outside of Orario. The powerful ones among them were no less powerful than the monsters in the dungeon, and their meat was full of energy.

Chen Xi was thinking about these things, but he was too lazy to go out hunting himself, so he might as well let other members of his family go. He would keep the half of the food that he withheld as a snack for his own family.

The maximum reward for LV5 cooking skills can maximize the energy of the ingredients, allowing users to better absorb them. As long as diners have tasted the food he personally cooks, they will flock to it.

Who doesn't want to become stronger?

It’s just half the ingredients, they can afford it!

Absorbing high-energy food is like practicing the "Five Animals Health-Preserving Exercise". The direct effect on adventurers is the increase in numerical values. In other words, even if the people of Dawn's clan do not go on adventures, just by eating and drinking, and practicing alone, their numerical values ​​will continue to grow. This makes the people of the clan admire Chen Xi even more. This is a miracle.

Not only that, the "Five Animals Health-Preserving Exercise" can also cleanse the tendons and marrow, and improve the roots of relatives, so this set of exercises has become the treasure of Daoen's family, and everyone keeps it secret from the outside world.

The private dishes of Dawn's family have gained great reputation among gods, but not all gods can afford them. Only the big families can afford them, such as Loki's family.

Freya's family is actually also possible, but she and Chen Xi are at loggerheads, and she would never go to the territory of Dawn's family even if you kill her.

Loki became the VIP of Chen Xi's private restaurant. She was not short of money, and Hephaestus, who was good at forging, was also short of money and came to support her frequently.

Where there are consumers, there are also those who eat for free, such as a certain shameless goddess of justice who always uses the excuse of having a meal after returning from an adventure and refuses to leave this private restaurant.

"Ah~~" Astraea held on to the door frame and refused to let go, tears falling on the spot: "I don't want to leave~~"

The girls of Astraea's family all lowered their heads, not daring to look at anyone. Their goddess was really...

Tomie Kawakami covered her mouth and laughed. This goddess is quite interesting.

Leila looked at Chen Xi helplessly, asking with her eyes: What should I do? I can't pull it.

Chen Xi: ╮(╯▽╰)╭

"Forget it, let her be."

Astraea, who was crying the last second, instantly smiled.

Others: (“▔□▔)/(“▔□▔)/(“▔□▔)/

Once, twice, after a long time, Chen Xi got used to it. Although they belonged to different camps, the relationship between him and Astraea became better and better.

This is also the reason why Chen Xi has never done anything bad to Orario, otherwise Astraea would be the first one who would not forgive him.

But there is no such thing as a free lunch (dinner) in the world. If you walk by the river often, your shoes will get wet sooner or later. Astralia ate so much from others, did she really think it was for free?

During a banquet, Chen Xi got this shameless goddess drunk. Kawakami Tomie, who was very pleased with the goddess, started to force her family members to drink, and eventually knocked them all down.

Don’t drink?

So you guys are not giving me face?

Do you want me to take you on a deep adventure in the future?

After many adventures, Tomie Kawakami has left the image of a big sister in the other parties' minds. Once she speaks, what can those little girls do?

That night, Chen Xi carried Astraea back to the room. After throwing her on the bed, he was also struggling. Was it not a good idea to take advantage of the situation?

Astraea, who should have been drunk to death, suddenly opened her eyes at this moment and looked at the hesitant Chen Xi. Her eyes were full of provocation, meaning...that's it?

Chen Xi: (╬￣皿￣)

You asked for this, man!

Soon, Chen Xi discovered the other party's set of sexy underwear and was stunned. So he was the one being plotted against?

Astraea: (*^▽^*)

I can finally eat openly now~

Chapter 176 Joint Expedition

"You've already planned this, haven't you?!"

Astralia didn't answer. She lay on the bed with a frown on her face and pointed to the window: "Go over there to smoke. It's too choking."

Chen Xi: ╮(╯▽╰)╭

It's strange, how can I see the shadow of Li Chuqing in her.

Chen Xi walked to the window and opened it, but not too wide so as not to expose the view on the bed.

At this time, Astraea said, "I just want to eat the food you cook, but you always refuse. I always have to beg you for a long time. It's too much trouble."

"So you just wanted to seduce me, aren't you afraid that I won't admit it?"

"Then your reputation among the gods will be completely ruined, and you won't be able to pursue other goddesses in the future."

"You think I care?"

Astraea: (⊙o⊙)

“Hey…” Astraea, who was so arrogant before, immediately became timid: “I admit that I had a bad attitude just now. I will be obedient in the future, so…”

Chen Xi was also speechless. Who would have thought that the goddess who represented justice was actually a foodie in private.

As if she had noticed the mockery in his eyes, Astralia became unhappy: "I'm not doing this for myself, I'm doing this for those children."

"You think too much. I will only take care of your meals. If they want to eat, they can prepare the ingredients themselves or pay for it."

"No need to discuss?"

"Have you forgotten that I am the evil god? How can you talk about kindness with the evil god?"

"Oh~ All right." Astraea pouted: "I'll let them prepare their own ingredients."

Chen Xi put out the cigarette butt and waited for the smell of smoke to dissipate for a while before returning to bed and lying next to Astraea. He did not rush to sleep, but instead chatted with her for a while, although the topic was not very interesting.

He was waiting, waiting for the cooling time to pass, and then he would take care of her meals. How could he finish it in one go?

Astraea was happy to cooperate. It should be said that she was still very addicted to that feeling, and the thought of eating and drinking for free in the future made her even happier.

Because of the change in the relationship between the two gods, Dawn's family and Astraea's family also became an alliance. When they go out on adventures, they act together, split the profits in half, and Chen Xi is responsible for the lunch.

Chen Xi was also recalling the original plot. The Astraea clan only appeared in memories. After the official plot began, this clan was long gone, and only one Liu survived.

He couldn't remember the specific details, he just remembered that it was caused by a disaster in the dungeon, and other gods were behind it, it seemed that it was done by the evil god.

So...I am the bad guy?

Chen Xi shook his head and dismissed the idea. Maybe it was possible before, but now that he was with Astraea, even if the Evil God faction had any action, they would probably hide it from him.

That's not right. With me here, the evil gods may not dare to take action. Among his followers is Tomie Kawakami, unless... those gods are prepared to drag me down as well.

Astraea and the evil gods have a hostile relationship because those gods are too reckless and do not take the lives of Orario seriously. In fact, this is in line with the divinity. How could gods care about mortals?

Because of these things, the conflict between the two sides is simply irreconcilable, especially given Astraea's character, who cannot tolerate any sand in her eyes.

Chen Xi thought about it and decided that he couldn't control this matter and didn't want to intervene. He just had to be careful not to get cheated. If there was a chance, he could also help Astraea's family.

If Astraea's family really disappeared, the goddess might become disheartened and return to the divine realm. This would not be acceptable, as he had not yet had enough.

We can only ask Tomie Kawakami to keep a closer eye on her.

Speaking of which, it's not just Astraea's family that is thinking about Tomie Kawakami. The Loki family also has the idea of ​​cooperating in the expedition.

In the private restaurant, Chen Xi sat there lazily, with a cigarette in his mouth, not even raising his eyelids: "I don't want to go."

"Why?!" Loki's squinty eyes widened.

"Not interested in."

"Dawn, the expedition will be good for all of us."

"I know."

"Then you still object!"

"I told you, I'm not interested. Tomie is only LV6, and your followers are at most LV5. Even if we go on an expedition, how many levels can we go down to?"

"But expeditions are also a form of training. The more experience you have, the faster you will level up."

"It's fast for your clan to upgrade, but there are so many of them, it's not suitable for me here."

Loki blinked. She could see that the other party wanted benefits. She asked helplessly, "Tell me, what do you want?"

"Transfer Ai Si to me?" Chen Xi asked tentatively.

"Don't even think about it!" Loki slammed the table and stood up.

"Okay." Chen Xi felt a little regretful. It seemed that he couldn't deceive her anymore. He thought for a moment and asked, "Does Livilia have a junior who is currently studying?"

"How did you know?"

"Don't worry about this. I just know that the little girl is considered a reserve for your clan, right?"

"Yes."

"Let her join my clan, and I'll let Tomie go on the expedition with you."

"No way. I won't use that child as a bargaining chip."

"Tsk, tsk, the tone of your voice makes it seem like I'm some evil god."

"You are."
