Their commission was suspicious.
Page 2178
“I’ve already notified them,” Chen Luo said.
"what?"
"Bang!" The bar door was kicked open the next moment.
Fu Xuan stormed in, furious.
"Chen Luo, you bastard, you've crossed me again! And wasn't it you who caused that mess just now? I can tell it was you just by looking at those black sword marks!"
"Look, isn't Fu Xuan here?" Chen Luo pointed to the door.
"Hmm? Jingyuan? General, you're not handling official business at the General's Mansion, and you still have time to visit a bar? If you really intend to rest, General, why don't you just retire?" Fu Xuan raised an eyebrow and looked at Jingyuan.
"Fu Qing, you've arrived. I happen to have an important matter to discuss with you."
"What important matter is it?"
"Regarding... the foundation of the Immortal Ship!" Jing Yuan said solemnly.
"Huh? The Immortal Ship's background? You're talking about it in a bar?"
"Well, here's what happened..." Jing Yuan began slowly, recounting the whole story.
……
"..." Fu Xuan immediately looked at Chen Luo.
"So, your third wish is for me to agree to let you possess my Golden and Silver Dharma Eyes?" Fu Xuan asked.
“That’s right.” Chen Luo nodded.
[Ding! The commission has been posted!]
【Fu Xuan's Eye of Truth】: 300 Origin Stones.
After catching his breath while waiting for Fu Xuan, Chen Luo was able to issue another commission.
People who make wishes to Chen Luo are unlikely to make consistently high-quality wishes.
Similarly, Chen Luo's wish using the magic lamp was also a result of this.
The difference lies in the fact that the magic lamp's conversion efficiency is not good and it is not as useful as Chen Luo's talent. Otherwise, Chen Luo's request would be worth at least 700 primal stones!
But since it's free anyway, why be so demanding?
"Is your magic lamp truly invincible below even the Star God?"
"Anyway, once the Dark Essence in the Holy Grail is fully gathered, it's just a matter of wishing for five Illusions or even seven Mirror Elements to arrive," Chen Luo nodded.
Chen Luo has already been quite restrained in his words.
"..." Jing Yuan tilted his head to the side.
Why compare yourself to Huanlong? And why are you worse than Huanlong?
“Fu Qing, there’s no need to feel pressured. At worst, we can ask Chen Luo to change his wish. It’s not a big problem,” Jing Yuan said.
"...If it were possible to exchange wishes, why would Chen Luo have called me here? Besides, if even Tingyun is willing to make such a sacrifice, why can't I?"
"Isn't it because of the shared senses due to observing the formation that Chen Luo felt a strange sensation when playing with the Golden and Silver Dharma Eyes?" Fu Xuan's tone became more and more firm as he spoke.
"Fu Qing, Tingyun, she..." Jing Yuan wanted to say something more.
You are different from Tingyun. Tingyun did it voluntarily, or rather... one was willing to hit and the other was willing to be hit.
You can't compare to her. Calm down.
"No need to say anything! I agree to this wish!" Despite his short stature, Fu Xuan interrupted Jing Yuan with one hand on his hip and said firmly, his face showing a stubborn refusal to admit defeat when he looked at Chen Luo.
"Minister Fu is very righteous. I will propose that you take over the position of general at the next meeting of the Six Emperors." Jing Yuan was deeply moved.
"Hmph! Are you satisfied now? So what if it's the Golden and Silver Dharma Eyes? If you're so capable, keep playing. I won't admit defeat!" Fu Xuan said stubbornly to Chen Luo.
Actually, when Chen Luo was playing with the golden and silver Dharma Eyes, Fu Xuan's feeling wasn't bad. Compared to the pain caused by the conflict between the Dharma Eyes and Fu Xuan's body, which was practically a torture device, what was Chen Luo's playing with them?
Fu Xuan was unwilling to let Chen Luo touch his golden and silver Dharma Eyes, mainly because when Chen Luo helped Fu Xuan relieve the pain caused by the Dharma Eyes, he used a head pat. After being enhanced by the power of eternity, the Dharma Eyes even brought Fu Xuan a little comfort.
This feeling of comfort becomes even stronger after Chen Luo's hand touches the Golden and Silver Dharma Eyes.
Because the Dharma Eye is located on the forehead, which is part of the head, and because Chen Luo touched the Golden and Silver Dharma Eyes with his hands, the comfortable feeling of being patted on the head by Chen Luo due to his control of the Qiong Guan Formation would be partially transmitted to Fu Xuan.
That's why Fu Xuancai hated Chen Luo touching his Dharma Eye.
[Ding! Mission complete!]
Upon hearing the sound of the mission being completed and seeing Fu Xuan's unyielding yet resigned expression, Chen Luo suddenly put away the Golden and Silver Dharma Eyes.
"What? Have you suddenly had a change of heart?" Fu Xuan raised an eyebrow.
"No, it's because you got bored after you agreed. Actually, I'd rather see your displeased expression, but you can only let me touch the Eye of Dharma, than play with it. Once you get something, you lose interest in it." Chen Luo sighed.
Just like when playing a game, after completing daily tasks and maxing out a character's affinity, you should try to replace the character with maxed affinity to refresh the affinity.
"Chen! Luo! You, you, you...you scoundrel, I'll fight you to the death!"
"Hey, Fu Qing, calm down! The position of general is right in front of you!"
"I don't care! Chen Luo, I'm going to stuff you into the star-gazing device!" Hearing Chen Luo's words, Fu Xuan angrily pulled out his star-gazing device and rushed towards Chen Luo.
Chapter 2171 Stargazing: Huh? There's an astrolabe inside this magic lamp? 9.5k
"Hmph, you'd better stay in the star-gazing device and reflect on your actions for a while!" Fu Xuan crossed his arms and calmed down after seeing Chen Luozhen being stuffed into the star-gazing device.
Although the short-statured diviner didn't have much of a chest.
[Ding! Mission complete!]
[Ding! You have a new request!]
[Stay in the Observatory]: 300 Originium.
Just now, Fu Xuan, who was so angry with Chen Luo, genuinely had the desire to lock Chen Luo inside the star-gazing instrument.
Let's not even talk about how feasible this wish is, but wishes are inherently illogical.
So... Chen Luo reluctantly entered the star-gazing instrument.
Fortunately, Chen Luo was able to control his body freely.
This is a basic operation for the Genie.
Fortunately, Fu Xuan's star-gazing instrument was quite luxurious and could be considered a decent cage, so Chen Luo didn't find it objectionable.
I'll definitely have wild thoughts.
For example, because they are smaller, when they look up at Fu Xuan, they can better understand Fu Xuan's magnanimity.
It can't be described as a completely flat plain, but the magnitude of the change is certainly not large.
"Are you thinking about something rude?" Fu Xuan slammed his hand on the star-gazing instrument on the table.
Fu Xuan usually treasured his star-gazing instrument. Once it was summoned, he would wipe it clean even if a speck of dust fell on it.
However, since we're in a bar, there won't be any collision damage. Even if you beat up Chen Luo with the stargazing device, it won't leave a mark.
So Fu Xuan let himself go.
The main problem was that Chen Luo's words were too infuriating.
What does it mean that what you can't have is always the best?
I told you not to touch the Dharma Eye, but you insisted. Then I let you touch it, but you put it away, too lazy to touch it again. Chen Luo truly deserved the beating.
Why don't you pull Aha down from his position as a star god and take his place?
"No, how could that be? I've been locked inside the star-gazing instrument, how could I possibly think of anything impolite?" Chen Luo blinked innocently while trapped inside the star-gazing instrument.
"...Hmph!" Seeing that Chen Luo's attitude of admitting his mistake was quite good, Fu Xuan had nothing to say.
"So Mom... Luo, how long are you going to stay in here?" Tiamat looked curiously at the observatory in front of her and Chen Luo inside.
"This..." Chen Luo glanced at Fu Xuan, who was standing beside him looking at him suspiciously.
It has to be said that Fu Xuan's intuition is quite accurate, or perhaps it is his divine eye that makes his intuition more accurate. In any case, Fu Xuan now suspects that Chen Luo is talking badly about him in his heart.
"Why are you looking at me? I just told you to stay inside. How was I supposed to know that after it became a commission, you'd have to stay inside for hours?" Fu Xuan turned his head away.
But then Fu Xuan remembered that he was the one who should be right, so he turned around and glared at Chen Luo.
Chen Luo felt even more innocent.
She herself didn't say it was Fu Xuan's fault.
"It depends on fate. I can come out when the commission is completed," Chen Luo said, shaking his head.
The commission itself didn't specify a timeframe, but given the reward wasn't much, the timeframe couldn't be long either; otherwise, they would definitely have added more money.
"..." Upon hearing Chen Luo's words, a hint of worry appeared in Fu Xuan's eyes.
"What? Now you're worried?" Chen Luo noticed the worry label on Fu Xuan's head.
"Well, if you keep hogging my star-gazing instrument, how am I supposed to do divination? And can the star-gazing instrument still be used after you've messed it up like this?" Fu Xuan nodded and asked with concern.
"...I thought you were worried about me. You have no conscience at all!"
"Why should I worry about you? Even if you and the Star God fight, I should be worried about whether the Star God will get hurt," Fu Xuan said irritably.
What am I worried about?
Are you worried that you'll get used to living inside the stargazing device and won't want to come out?
We should worry about the condition of the observatory instead.
Within a short period of time that Chen Luo had stayed there, Fu Xuan's star-gazing instrument had undergone significant changes.
Fu Xuan has a set of star-gazing instruments, consisting of an instrument panel and a core in the center—a purple crystal ball.
When Fu Xuan was thinking of beating up Chen Luo, he picked up the entire Star Gazing Instrument. However, after putting Chen Luo into the instrument, Fu Xuan put the instrument away, and now only a purple crystal ball remains.
Normally, the inside of this purple crystal ball is like a starry sky, but now that Chen Luo has moved in, it has been stained with Chen Luo's color.
Not only did the exterior become radiant and iridescent, like a raw stone, but the internal structure could also be clearly seen.
"Can it still be used? Why don't you just try it?" Chen Luo said, lying inside the stargazing device.
"...Won't it explode?" Even the well-informed Fu Xuan had never seen anything like this before.
"Don't worry, at worst you can just stand at the bar entrance and not go out, right? Because of the bar's rules, if it can explode, it can't be used, and if it can be used, it won't explode."
"Alright then, I'll give it a try." Fu Xuan frowned as he picked up his star-gazing instrument, letting it float in front of him, and then attached the instrument plate to it.
"Let's just observe and see if anyone's slacking off at work today," Fu Xuan muttered to himself as he walked to the bar entrance.
Fu Xuan arrived at the entrance she had used to enter the bar, and this entrance happened to be in the Taibusi.
Fu Xuan gently tapped the star-gazing instrument, and it began to operate. Just as Fu Xuan was about to perform divination in the usual way, the star-gazing instrument suddenly lit up and then presented a picture.
Fu Xuan was taken aback.
This kind of imagery is less like divination and more like a direct glimpse into the future.
The background of the image on the astrolabe seemed to be the library of the Imperial Divination Bureau, and the figure was one that Fu Xuan recognized very well. He was currently stacking up Imperial Jade Tablets because he was extremely bored...
"Qing! Que!" Fu Xuan, who not only knew whether someone was slacking off, but also saw the scene of the other person slacking off, gradually became unpleasant.
Of course, besides Fu Xuan, there must have been other people slacking off in the Taibu Si, but their images only flashed by. Only Qing Que's image lasted the longest, indicating that Qing Que slacked off for the longest time.
"Looks like I need to give Qingque a little surprise." Fu Xuan turned off the stargazing device and walked forward.
Fu Xuan hadn't expected that the Star Gazing Instrument would become even more useful after Chen Luo entered it, but considering Chen Luo's special abilities, Fu Xuan could accept it.
The most important thing now is to give a slight warning to the employees who are slacking off.
"Wait, wait, don't take me away! I still need to stay in the bar!" Chen Luo shouted into the stargazing device.
"...Remember to return the stargazing instrument to me after you come out." Fu Xuan walked back to the bar and placed the stargazing instrument on the table in the box specifically for storing stargazing instruments.
"Oh, right. General, you haven't forgotten your promise to recommend me as General Luofu at the next Six Emperors Conference, have you?" Fu Xuan glanced at Jing Yuan before leaving.
“Of course I haven’t forgotten, of course I haven’t forgotten. Speaking of which, I really should take care of some miscellaneous matters and prepare to convene the Six Emperors Conference. Yanqing, let’s go.” Jingyuan nodded repeatedly, then carried the magic lamp in his hand and walked outside.
"Oh, yes, General. Goodbye, Teacher Chen Luo." Yan Qing quickly followed Jing Yuan and then respectfully said to Chen Luo.
Yanqing had a truly eye-opening day.
Although Chen Luo's sword strike when he killed the pseudo-Star God Sui Yang carried the power of corrosive authority, the sword intent of that strike itself was indeed amazing enough.
