Their commission was suspicious.

Chen Luo's pat on Fu Xuan's head just now was, of course, a way to interrupt Fu Xuan's realization that something was wrong.

If you don't have enough tricks, just use a head pat to make up for it.

“The power of wishes is omnipotent, so you can use it to do anything and fully unleash your imagination. However, the Star God of Wishes has placed some restrictions on the wishes that can be granted, so it cannot be truly omnipotent. But healing the Demonic Yin Body is clearly within the scope of a reasonable wish,” Chen Luo said.

The real omnipotence is to throw in the raw stone and get whatever you want.

Wish-granters can do similar things, but the power of wishes used by those who use these wish tokens is severely weakened.

This is inevitable; otherwise, wouldn't it be unfair to those who have made tremendous efforts to become wish fulfillers?

Besides, Wish Walkers are recognized for their actions, so there's no need to worry about them causing trouble after gaining power, unlike ordinary people.

"In that case, the distribution of this wish token might affect the importance of Paradise Gold Coins on the Immortal Ship," Fu Xuan said, frowning.

But how long has the Paradise Coin business been running in Fairy Ship?

Fu Xuan was somewhat worried that Chen Luo, the master of Paradise, would suffer a loss, after all, Chen Luo had indeed helped the Immortal Ship a lot.

On the other hand, there are also concerns about the impact of frequent policy changes.

"Worried about me? Don't overthink it. It's actually a good thing that the power of wishes can slowly heal the demonic body of the Immortal Boat. After all, I promised the Star God of Hunting that I would help the Immortal Boat resolve the matter of the demonic body. As for those Paradise Gold Coins, they don't really have any impact, since only a few people ultimately possess these tokens. It's good to keep some Paradise Gold Coins on hand to prevent a relapse."

"Besides," Chen Luo said, "the soldiers of the Celestial Ship are meant to protect their homeland anyway. Adding a layer of spiritual energy to their weapons so they drop Paradise Gold Coins after killing enemies won't affect them much. It'll also give them some extra money, boosting their morale on the battlefield. Now that Paradise Gold Coins have been used to spread knowledge, they're easy to sell. And if they really can't be sold, billions of Paradise Adventurers would be happy to help you get rid of those Paradise Gold Coins."

The Dimensional Sea is where Paradise Coins sell the best.

Items from the Dimensional Sea are also very popular on the Starry Sky Railway.

Even if adventurers in the amusement park simply run trade routes, they can make a fortune.

Therefore, there's no worry about the Paradise Coins not selling.

"Who, who's worried about you? What I'm worried about is whether the devaluation of Paradise Gold Coins will affect the economic stability of the Immortal Ship!" Fu Xuan vehemently denied Chen Luo's words.

Paradise coins have now become a major source of revenue for Fairy Ship.

After all, there are only two places in the entire Honkai Impact 3rd world that can produce Paradise Coins: Paradise Adventurers and Immortal Ships. However, Paradise Adventurers never sell Paradise Coins to the Honkai Impact 3rd world because it's a bad deal.

Therefore, the entire market of the Ironclad World relies entirely on the meager Paradise Coins produced by the Immortal Ship.

Unless one day, the price of Paradise Gold Coins in the Honkai Impact 3rd world becomes higher than the price in the Dimensional Sea.

In fact, Chen Luo had received many cooperation invitations from various forces in recent days, wanting to sign "gold farming" contracts with him like Xianzhou had, but Chen Luo ignored them.

"Yes, yes, yes. Make good use of this genuine messenger-level wish token; it will bring you a lot of help." Chen Luo nodded perfunctorily.

"What I said is true!"

"Yes Yes Yes."

"you!"

She felt guilty.

"Lord Taibu, we just got back. It seems like it's working hours now, right?" Qingque whispered from the side.

Since Chen Luo had helped her out of a predicament and given her a lot of wish power, Qingque naturally wanted to repay the favor by helping Chen Luo overcome his current difficulties.

"How dare you say that?" Fu Xuan's attention was instantly diverted, and he placed his hand directly on Qing Que's ear.

"Don't you want to think about why I came to the bar during work hours to check on things? And those little Xuanzi, you'd better get out of here right now!" Fu Xuan said, pulling Qing Que's ear.

"But Lord Taipu, those little Xuan... cough cough, those Fu Xuan were created using the power of wishes. Wouldn't it be a waste to remove them now?" Qingque said softly.

“That makes sense… Can these wishes be reused?” Fu Xuan turned to look at Chen Luo.

Chen Luo is an expert at manipulating the power of wishes.

“Ordinary command mirrors won’t work, but the real command mirror you have will. Isn’t this a kind of wish-making power being used again? So just keep these talismans with you, and when you need to make a wish, just use them as consumables,” Chen Luo said.

"Can't we just turn them back into wish power?" Fu Xuan was reluctant to accept the idea of ​​using these little Xuanzi as expendable resources.

Because it sounds really weird.

"No." Chen Luo shook his head.

[Liar elements +10]

Okay, sure.

However, it seems quite interesting to have Fu Xuan leading a group of Fu Xuans to work in the Taibu Si.

It won't delay anything anyway, right?

"Alright. But Qingque, if I see you wasting your wish power like this again next time, watch out for your ears." Fu Xuan poked Qingque's forehead with his finger, somewhat annoyed.

Using the power of wishes to create several fake talismans and then having them serve you, you're really dreaming.

"But isn't the power of wishes meant to be used?" Qingque said softly.

"Still dare to talk back? The power of wishes is indeed meant to be used, but the power of the Star God should be used only when possible. Every gift from fate comes with a price tag in secret," Fu Xuan admonished.

Qingque turned her head to look at Chen Luo, the true God of Wishes and the originator of the power of wishes.

“Ahem, well… although the power of wishes doesn’t actually have many side effects, it’s still best to listen to the Grand Diviner and not use it recklessly. Sooner or later you’ll need this power of wishes. You only realize how little you know when you need it, and the same applies to the power of wishes. Also, don’t get used to it, because not all powers are as fair as the power of wishes. And doing so will also make you lose your awe of the Star God’s power,” Chen Luo said.

The price of the power of wishes is mutual assistance, and from this perspective, Qingque and the others have already paid the price for using the power of wishes.

However, based on the truth that subordinates are not allowed to contradict their superiors, Chen Luo chose to join Fu Xuan and train Qing Que together.

"..." Qingque scratched her head.

Qingque felt that Chen Luo had said a lot, but it seemed that he hadn't mentioned what the price was.

Losing reverence for the power of the Star God is utter nonsense... Qingque is terrified!

“Chen Luo is right,” Fu Xuan said to Qing Que after thinking for a moment.

Chen Luo said everything he wanted to say and everything he didn't want to say.

“By the way, Chen Luo, I think the wish to create a phantom of someone else using the power of wishes should be included in the category of unreasonable wishes.” Fu Xuan then turned his head and said.

“That’s exactly right,” Chen Luo nodded.

In fact, this is a limitation and prohibition of the power of wishes. Unless it is for the need to protect others and so to create illusions or to escape by creating clones or fake bodies, like the cicada shedding its shell, the wish of Qingque to create a large number of Fu Xuanxu shadows is not allowed.

At most, it can create some "dolls" with a generic appearance, but cannot specify a particular image.

The reason Qingque was able to do it was because Chen Luo, the privileged dog, was right there beside her.

Heh heh! That's right, Lord Fu Xuan is the one I betrayed.jpg

“Qingque is right. It’s not advisable to go out during working hours. Let’s go back now, Qingque, let’s go.” Fu Xuan glanced at the time and walked straight out of the bar.

"Lord Fu Xuan, please go ahead. I'll be there in a minute. I have something I'd like to discuss with Chen Luo, but it involves my personal secrets. Lord Fu Xuan, could you please leave now?" Qing Que said with a very embarrassed expression.

Qingque's expression made Fu Xuan's heart skip a beat, and he began to scrutinize Chen Luo and Qingque.

No, what's going on?

You two can even collaborate?

"Okay. You have one minute. After you're done slacking off, hurry up and come to work." Fu Xuan suppressed his restlessness and curiosity and left the bar.

After confirming that Fu Xuanzhen had left, Qingque burst into tears and hugged Chen Luo's leg.

"Chen Luo, you really have to save me this time! Lord Fu Xuan has already started to mark me closely. If you don't give me something substantial, I might never be able to slack off again in my life. A life without slacking off is too painful!" Qing Que said with a pained expression.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

Qingque once said that working is not about gaining value, but about exchanging labor for rewards; taking a break while working is what it means to gain value.

Qingque never takes a break when it comes to finding time to relax amidst her busy schedule.

Qingque is very capable at work, and she always finishes her work before slacking off, but unfortunately, she has a boss who is extremely indecisive.

In order to prevent one's workload from increasing further, one must not appear capable of handling more work than originally assigned!

Just like a company must spend all the budget allocated to a certain department, otherwise the budget will be reduced next year.

"Or, or you could ask Lord Fu Xuan to fire me!" Qing Que changed to an even more niche wish.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"Can't you just resign yourself?"

“How can that be? I’ve worked diligently at the Taipusi for so many years… Well, the main problem is that there’s no compensation for resigning, but there would be n+1 compensation if I were fired,” Qingque said.

With this compensation, Qingque could easily open an Imperial Jade Mahjong Parlor.

"Wait, I suddenly thought of something... Could I use my wish power to wish for a mahjong parlor? That way I wouldn't have to work anymore?" A sudden inspiration flashed through Qingque's mind.

The power of wishes can do anything! That's what Chen Luo said.

Qingque also experimented by feeding cards to others while playing Diyuan Qiongyu, which was considered as fulfilling their wishes.

If the opponent wants this card, and you play it, why doesn't that count as a wish?

What's even better is that beating up Imperial Jade is more of a hobby than a job.

“Qingque, you need to understand one thing: once a hobby becomes your job, you may have to give it up,” Chen Luo said.

Just like... the best way to quit a favorite song is to set it as your alarm!

"Okay, let me think of a good way for you to slack off." Chen Luo began to think.

There are countless methods available, but few are suitable for Qingque.

After all, we can't let Qingque slack off forever, nor can we let Qingque never be able to slack off at all.

The fun lies in the back-and-forth wins and losses.

That's right, Lord Qingque, it was I who betrayed you!

However, Chen Luo stated that he was not doing this for fun; he was simply trying to avoid wasting the power of his wishes.

After all, Fu Xuan couldn't possibly believe that Qing Que didn't touch any fish. What if he discovered that Qing Que really didn't touch any fish and used his wish power to check why Qing Que wasn't touching any fish?

Isn't this just a waste of the power of wishes?

As the God of Wishes, Chen Luo must prevent any waste of wish power.

Ah, right, right...you've finally found a good excuse.

“Qingque, I remember I gave you something called the Guide to Slacking Off, right?” Chen Luo said.

This tool is used to make your boss pay less attention to you, so you can slack off to your heart's content.

After Qingque took a liking to this prop, Chen Luo gave it to her some time ago.

However, this is not a random item; it is an item found in the Treasure Vault of Wealth and Fruit, so its abilities are limited.

“That’s right. But supernatural powers can’t overcome fate… The Grand Master of the Imperial Stud who now holds the true wish-granting mirror is that fate.” Qingque said with a mournful face.

This prop was actually quite useful, until the Wish Star God appeared.

The wish-granting token was used by Fu Xuan as a magic mirror, but the effect was excellent.

"I'll enhance it for you..."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you!" Qingque looked at Chen Luo expectantly.

After obtaining the "Slacking Off Guide," Chen Luo immediately dropped a raw gem into it.

"Alright, the enhancement is complete."

"Ah, aren't you going to use your river god abilities? Is this really so hasty?" Qingque took the book back, somewhat bewildered.

"What do you know? Using primal stones for enhancement is far more effective than enhancing the River God's abilities," Chen Luo said.

"So how was the result?"

"Hmm... I can basically guarantee that you won't be discovered by Fu Xuan, unless Fu Xuan specifically targets you to see if you're slacking off," Chen Luo said.

"No way...? Oh well, something's better than nothing." Qingque sighed.

With so many people in the Bureau of Divination, surely the Grand Diviner can't just keep an eye on him alone?

After all, he was just the lowest-ranking diviner in the Imperial Divination Bureau, and now he'd even been assigned by Fu Xuan to guard the library...

But after thinking about it, since Fu Xuan went to the bar specifically to find him, it's not necessarily true that he wasn't targeting only him.

"Forget it, whether I get caught or not... it's a huge gamble! In any case, not slacking off is impossible, absolutely impossible in this lifetime." Qingque hardened her heart, put away the slacking-off guide, and walked out of the bar.

Fu Xuan might still be waiting for him outside; he only has one minute.

If Fu Xuan enters the bar again because a minute has passed, then I'll be in trouble again.
