I am a male god in Liyue

"Oh!"

Chapter 197 Mr. Xia is really a strange person

When the girls came back from buying vegetables from the market, Xia Zhi walked into the kitchen and started to prepare the dishes.

Not long after, Zhong Li came from the Hall of Rebirth, Gan Yu came from the Yuehai Pavilion, and Yan Fei came back from the law firm.

Afterwards, Ningguang, who was wearing a gorgeous dress, also came over with gifts.

The last person to arrive was a young man with a cold temperament.

He has short cyan hair, a purple diamond eyebrow pattern in the middle of his forehead, and wears a close-fitting bunt. His top is white with moire patterns, and has wide sleeves, a streamer in the front, a hem in the back, legs, cuffs and There are jade-like ornaments and small objects with simple patterns on the shoulders.

He wears armor on his wrist, with a wind-type God's Eye embedded on it.

He wears a demon pestle around his neck, a tattoo of a fairy beast on his right arm, a small incense burner on his left waist, and a snake-print amulet in the middle.

He also carries a Nuo mask in black, blue and gold colors on his right waist.

Grandma Ping saw him and greeted him with a smile: "Mandrill, you are here."

The young man named Mandrill nodded, responded softly, said hello to several other immortals, and sat silently in a corner.

He seems to be very bad at dealing with people.

Several immortals didn't think his behavior was inappropriate, and they all smiled and nodded at him kindly.

Ning Guang glanced at Mandrill one more time, his eyes a little surprised.

She knew about Mandrill's existence, and his name was on Yelan's special list.

Although he looks like a young man, he is actually over [-] years old. He is the only Yaksha left in Liyue, and he is known as the "Great Sage of Conquering Demons".

Since the end of the Demon God War, he has been ordered by Emperor Yan to guard Guiliyuan and deal with the filth transformed from the Demon God's residue for hundreds of years.

In order to support his work of subduing demons, Qixing established a spy agency called "Wangshu Inn" in Guiliyuan.

Mandrills are taciturn and dedicated to their duties, rarely leaving the area they guard.

Mandrill never came when Grandma Ping celebrated her birthday in previous years, but I don’t know why he came again this year.

Ning Guang's eyes couldn't help but look a little thoughtful, but she quickly gave up thinking because she couldn't concentrate at all.

The aroma of food wafting from the kitchen at this time is so tempting.

She resisted the urge to swallow and quietly looked at the others. She found that everyone was similar to her. They had no intention of chatting anymore and were all smelling the fragrance.

Even Mandrill, who was sitting in the corner, looked towards the kitchen.

Everyone waited hard for a while, and finally the meal was served.

Sumptuous dishes filled a large table.

When Xia Zhi walked out of the kitchen, the first thing he noticed was Mandrill.

There is another platinum progress bar in the room.

"Mr. Xia, thank you for your hard work."

"No, I was in a hurry and the dishes were not cooked well. Please forgive me."

Lord Lishui took out a jar of wine, said it was a good wine that he had treasured for a long time, and poured it for everyone.

A mellow aroma of wine filled the air.

Diona looked at the wine in her glass with a worried expression.

She doesn't drink!The rice wine the boss made last time does not count.

But today is Grandma Ping's birthday, so it seems a bit bad for her not to drink.

The face of an immortal... still needs to be given, right?

Diona was still struggling, so Xia Zhi helped her pour the wine in her glass into the glass he had just finished drinking.

"Children, don't drink and eat more food."

"Oh."

Diona felt grateful.

Still good boss!

Everyone enjoyed the table of master-level dishes and praised Xia Zhi's cooking skills.

Xia Zhi looked at the three platinum treasure chests and one silver treasure chest that he had just picked up in the inventory, and smiled modestly.

Serve the immortals, that's what you should do.

After having enough wine and food, the young man named Mandrill was the first to say goodbye and leave.

Then came Gan Yu and Yan Fei, who also had to rush back to continue working.

Ningguang also stood up. When leaving, Zhenyue Zhenjun suddenly said something meaningful to her: "Time is running out, Tianquan Ningguang, are you ready?"

Ningguang smiled and said softly: "All of you, True Lords, please wait and see."

Facing the immortals, she is still neither humble nor arrogant. The rich woman's aura is really quite strong.

Xia Zhi watched her leave silently.

Qixing and the Immortal seemed to be playing some kind of riddle, and the first thing he thought of was the disaster he had calculated for Ningguang yesterday.

Next month, Guyun Pavilion.

If this is really the case, then time is indeed running out.

The hexagram shows that Ningguang and Shenhe will have noble people to help them. Could it be that the noble people here refer to immortals?

Xia Zhi glanced at Zhongli who was calmly drinking tea.

With Prince Yan and the immortals taking care of everything, even if Osel from Guyun Pavilion ran out again, he didn't seem to be very afraid.

Forget it.

It's not his turn to worry about such big things.

He just needs to take good care of Shen He.

Xia Zhi lowered his head to drink tea and chatted with the two Zhenjun and Mr. Zhongli.

Their stories are many and interesting to hear.

Grandma Ping sat next to her and slowly opened her gifts.

The first thing to open was the gift from Yaoyao. Inside was a bracelet as bright as smoke.

Grandma Ping actually knew it a long time ago, but she still had to pretend to be surprised and praise Yaoyao.

The little girl is very happy.

The two True Lords looked at the bracelet in Grandma Ping's hand, and their expressions changed somewhat.

"There is such a master of stone carving in Liyue today?"

"I'm afraid this bracelet is expensive. Yaoyao, how did you get it?"

The two true kings were worried that Yaoyao had done something bad.

"Sister Gan Yu helped me pick the stone! What a beautiful jade came out! Big brother helped me make the bracelet!"

The two true monarchs looked at Xia Zhi: "Mr. Xia can also carve?"

Xia Zhi looked modest: "I just know a little bit."

Zhenyue Zhenjun was silent for a moment and said: "...Mr. Zhongli can also carve. You two may have something in common in this regard."

Xia Zhi looked at Zhongli: "Really?"

Zhongli looked calm: "I know a little bit."

Then, Xia Zhi and Zhongli started talking about various rock-related things that no one understood at all.

Zhuzi watched silently, feeling that the world of the boss was really scary.

However, she learned another saying that shows the saint in front of others.

"Know a thing or two."

It smells a bit literary.

I feel that Mr. Zhongli’s sentence is not as interesting as the boss’s sentence.

The two true gentlemen found themselves unable to get into the conversation at all, which was a bit embarrassing.

Lord Xieyue coughed and said, "Mr. Xia, do you know the art of divination?"

Xia Zhi turned around and smiled: "I happen to know a little bit."

Zhenyue Zhenjun became interested and started chatting with him. He felt that the two of them were very interested in each other.

Mr. Xia is truly a strange person!

Everyone chatted for a while and looked at the time. Xia Zhi and Zhongli both stood up to say goodbye. Yaoyao followed her elder brother to the store to play.

There were only two True Lords and Grandma Ping left here.

Grandma Ping put away the tea sets on the table and asked casually: "Are you two leaving today or tomorrow?"

The two true kings looked at each other.

"Not urgent."

"?"

"Now that Bashi is lurking in the sea, threatening Liyue all the time, the two of us are really worried."

"Isn't Mandrill always watching at the beach?"

"Mandrill is riddled with karma, what if his condition is not good when the time comes?"

"And the emperor..."

"Since the emperor has retired, he must have his reasons. How can he let this old man take action casually?"

"so……?"

"For Liyue's safety, the two of us are going to stay here for a while."

"...It's up to you. There are two more people living in my house, so it's usually more lively."

"Well, let's go out for a walk too."

Grandma Ping looked at their backs, smiled and shook her head.

The two true kings came out of Yujingtai.

"Where?"

"Going to Feiyun Teahouse for tea?"

"good."

Chapter 198 I still have an entangled relationship
