But just as she had thought before, in just half a month of getting along, her relationship with Master Su made rapid progress, from superiors and subordinates to ordinary friends and now close friends. This can be seen from the fact that the way she addressed Su Che changed from "Master Su" to "A Che".

Philgodette received a call from Qun Yu Pavilion early on.

When she learned that her immediate superior was coming to inspect in person, reportedly with a man, she was surprised, but she did not forget her own responsibilities.

The best room in the entire inn, Room No. 1, was cleaned up and servants cleaned it every day, ready to welcome Lady Ningguang at any time.

But beyond her expectation.

It took the convoy half a month to get from Liyue Harbor to Wangshu Inn... Were they using snails to pull the carts?

Although she was complaining in her heart, Filgodette still put on her signature smile on the surface: "Lord Ningguang must be tired after the long journey. I think the room has been prepared for you and you can move in right away."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Su Che who was standing beside her, not ignoring him: "This must be Mr. Su, right? He is indeed a handsome man. Your room has also been prepared. It is next to Lady Ningguang. If you need anything else, you can always tell the maid. We will do our best to meet your requirements."

"Thank you, boss lady." Su Che nodded at her and smiled again.

Filgodette thought to herself, no wonder Lady Ningguang, who is not interested in men, brought a man with her when she went out. Who wouldn't be confused by this smile? Could it be that this Mr. Su was really the canary that Lady Ningguang kept by her side?

In fact, it is no wonder that she would misunderstand. After all, Su Che's identity is a secret among secrets in Liyue today. Except for a few close people, only Ningguang's personal secretaries know it.

"It's not the boss lady, it's the boss." So Philgodette smiled at him and patiently corrected the mistake.

Then she clapped her hands again and gestured, "Yan Xiao's signature banquet will be ready soon. Please follow me."

The group went up the water ladder and came to the private room on the top floor of the inn. Upon learning that their immediate boss was coming, Yan Xiao put in all his effort and cooked a table of delicious food that was both delicious and appetizing.

Philgodette originally wanted to stay and serve personally.

Unexpectedly, Ningguang waved at her, indicating that it was not necessary.

Although she felt something was not right, since the boss had spoken, a worker like her had no choice but to step out and leave the space for Ningguang, Su Che, and Qiqi.

Yan Xiao’s craftsmanship is indeed good.

The dish that Su Che liked the most was the almond tofu, which was sweet, delicious, and extremely smooth. It was both refreshing and heat-removing, and was truly a great summer food.

No wonder the True Lord, who never leaves your sight when you look up or down, likes the dishes cooked by a mortal so much. He is indeed quite skilled.

As he was thinking, Su Che accidentally glanced out the window and saw a flash of green light.

Ok?

He was a little confused and looked again, but found nothing.

Yes, did I see it wrong?

……

Xiao was in a bad mood.

The reason is simple... He hasn't eaten the almond tofu made by Yan Xiao for a whole month.

As the immortal who protects Liyue and the only remaining Yaksha in the world, it is his duty to slay demons and eliminate evil.

Even though no one is grateful, even though no one offers sacrifices to him, Xiao remains consistent, just silently swinging his gun to eliminate all hidden dangers that threaten Liyue.

Mortals fear him, are terrified of him, but also respect him.

Xiao doesn't care about these. This battle has no end. No matter life or death, victory or defeat, he is already prepared.

But, even so.

The mighty and majestic Great Sage who subdues demons also has his own little hobby.

He really liked the almond tofu made by the chef named Yan Xiao in Wangshu Inn.

It wasn't because he liked sweet things, it was simply because... the taste of the almond tofu always reminded him of the time a thousand years ago when he was captured by the devil and committed endless killings, and he had swallowed up the sweet dreams of a loser.

In his spare time, he slays demons and monsters, and when he feels craving for something, he eats a dish of almond tofu. The Demon-Subduing King is not interested in fame or wealth, he just thinks that such a life is very good.

Now this peace has been broken.

Since mobile phones have gradually become popular in Liyue, Wangshu Inn has naturally launched a telephone reservation service.

Customers who want to stop by for a meal just need to make a phone call and someone will make all the arrangements.

Thanks to such convenient pleasure, coupled with its unique geographical location, and the frequent coming and going of merchants, Wangshu Inn's business was already very good, and now it is even more popular.

Many people came from thousands of miles away, even from Liyue, to taste Yanxiao's cooking skills. Among them, almond tofu is the most popular.

Of course, booming business is a good thing.

But after all, the inn only has one talented chef, Yan Xiao. Now the number of reservations is increasing, and the schedule is directly scheduled until one month later. Yan Xiao is so busy every day that he even wants to resign!

Xiao is an immortal.

Immortals are detached from the world and should be separated from ordinary people.

Moreover, due to his special position and the evil spirit around him, he should stay away from the crowd.

So even though he really liked the almond tofu made by the chef, and even though he knew that Wangshu Inn was the place to stay provided by the Qixing for him, Xiao seldom came here.

In the past, this happened about once a week, and I would eat almond tofu every time.

Although the inn's business was good at that time, Yan Xiao still had some free time if he squeezed in some time.

He seized this free opportunity and treated it as his meal time.

Although Yan Xiao always complained, "Here comes the freeloader again?", she would always do her best to make the most delicious almond tofu for him.

Days like this have been going on for a long time, so long that they have developed a tacit understanding.

But now Yan Xiao is getting busier and busier. This good man is being treated like a mule. He has to circle around the stove every day and doesn't even have time to drink a sip of water. He is busy until late at night before he can rest. He starts snoring as soon as his head touches the pillow and is so tired that he can't even lift a finger.

Xiao really couldn't find an opportunity to ask the chef to make almond tofu for him again.

In fact, with his status, he could have easily cut in line. You said you made an appointment in advance? I am the Great Demon Slayer who has slayed demons and protected Liyue for thousands of years. Four of my five brothers and sisters died, and I almost got jade syndrome because of suppressing the remnant of the demon god. What's wrong with cutting in line? Don't you understand that soldiers should be given priority? Can't relatives of martyrs have some privileges?

I believe Philgodette will never say anything more.

But Xiao can't do such a thing.

He protected Liyue not for the gratitude of the people nor for those privileges, but simply to fulfill the contract with the Emperor.

not to mention……

A great immortal cuts in line just because he is greedy... Will he still be a human being if this gets out to others? !

Xiao waited and waited, wanting to wait until the business of the inn was a little slower and Yan Xiao was less busy, then he would show up and ask him to make a dish of almond tofu.

This wait lasted for a month.

During this period, he also went out to inquire and learned about the existence of mobile phones, and was shocked by their functions.

It can allow weak mortals to pass messages thousands of miles away. It is comparable to the creation of immortals! No, it is even better!

At least he had not heard of any immortal creation that could even project a person's image, but transmitting sound was simple.

It’s a good thing that such a convenient thing appeared in Liyue. As an immortal, Xiao should be happy.

But when he thought that it was this thing that caused him to not eat almond tofu for a month, the Monkey King's expression became complicated.

Today in Ogihua Province, he sensed a trace of the devil's remnant. After returning from exorcising the devil, he really missed the taste of almond tofu.

So I went to Wangshu Inn to watch other guests having dinner.

...Just think of it as eating it yourself.

This was not the first time he had done this. He was always very careful and had never been discovered.

Unexpectedly, something went wrong today. The remnant of the one he had killed before was too powerful. Even he was forced to use all his strength to suppress it, and there was very little immortal energy left in his body.

Xiao moves very quickly.

If it were someone else, even if they saw that hint of green, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye, they would probably just think that they were dazzled.

But after a little thought, Su Che quickly identified the suspect.

Such a healthy color combination, and we are in Wangshu Inn. Apart from the man who can’t be seen when you look up and can be seen when you look down, there seems to be no one else here, right?

Ningguang saw that he hadn't picked up his chopsticks for a long time, and she was a little confused: "Ache, have you thought of something?"

Qiqi picked up a chicken drumstick for him and said, "Big brother...eat, chicken drumstick."

The little zombie has no sense of taste, but I still pick out the food I think is the most delicious and give it to him.

"Thank you, Qiqi."

Smiling and patting the little girl's head, Su Che pretended to be puzzled and said, "There seemed to be a green figure outside the window just now. Could it be a bandit?"

The green figure...

Ningguang quickly thought of the Demon-Subduing Great Sage who had left a deep impression on her: "He is not a bandit, but a hero. We are... old friends, so to speak."

After all, Wangshu Inn is hers.

Wangshu Inn is Xiao's place to stay, where he can eat and live for free.

After such a long-standing friendship, it’s not too much to call us friends, right?

"Since I'm a hero and your friend, why don't you invite me to have a meal with you?"

Su Che really wanted to meet the Great Sage who conquered demons.

There is a saying that goes "cold on the outside but warm on the inside", which really suits Xiao. At first glance, you may think he is very cold, but if you really get into his heart, you can feel his passion.

Ningguang actually did not support this move.

The Great Sage Subduing Demons is aloof and extremely cold. How can you invite him just because you want to?

The most likely possibility is that it will be ignored as air.

But she changed her mind and realized that as Tianquan among the Seven Stars, it seemed very impolite for her to come to Wangshu Inn and not even say hello when she knew there were immortals here.

Then give it a try.

The more politeness someone shows, the less blame they will have. Even if they are really ignored, at least they have shown courtesy.

The group then came to the balcony on the top floor of Wangshu Inn, which was a semicircular open space surrounded by wooden railings. Holding the railings and looking into the distance, you could see the beautiful mountains and rivers. Next to the railings were four huge potted plants, each with rockery and green plants, adding a bit of vitality.

There has always been a legend about immortals appearing here, but it has never been proven. However, as the boss behind the Wangshu Inn, Ningguang naturally knows that the rumor is true.

"I heard that the Great Sage who conquers demons is here, so I, the Ningguang of Heavenly Power, specially came to visit you. I wonder if the Great Sage could do me a favor and allow me to have a chat with you?"

Quack, quack, quack.

It seemed as if a crow was flying overhead.

After waiting for a long time without any response, Su Che shrugged: "Well, it seems that the person is not here."

Although I really want to meet Xiao, it is obviously impossible now and I can only wait for the next opportunity.

When he turned around and prepared to leave, he saw someone leaning against the side of the stairs, with his hands on his chest, looking at him calmly: "What we see with our mortal eyes may not be true."

The man had a well-proportioned figure, green hair and golden eyes, just like a pine tree. Although his height was a flaw, the temperament he exuded made people dare not look down on him. One could tell at the first moment that he was a ruthless person.

But Su Che's first thought was.

Wow, he is worthy of being a 1.58-meter-tall True Lord. He is too petite.

In fact, he and Xiao both look like teenagers, but when they stand together, the gap between them is instantly widened.

It seemed as if he had keenly sensed something.

Xiao frowned: "Why...why are you looking at me like that?"

"But I never thought that the famous Demon-Subduing Great Sage would look like such a teenager."

Su Che laughed. To be honest, he was afraid that the other party would shoot him.

elf:"……"

He decided to ignore this strange mortal and looked at Qiqi beside him with a complicated look: "You... are here too?"

Chapter 61: 200,000 Achievements, New Rewards, Ye Lan's Underarm Interrogation

Qiqi was not born a zombie.

She used to be just an ordinary girl collecting herbs. After she mistakenly entered the fairyland, she was accidentally involved in the battle between fairies and demons and was dying.

The immortals couldn't bear it, so they took out their immortal power and sealed it into her body to save her. However, the resurrected Qiqi became a zombie from then on.

Very unfortunately.

Among that group of immortals back then, there happened to be the Great Sage who subdues demons, Xiao.
