"So, when someone tries to help another person up, the person who fell down has to exert effort themselves?"

 Xian Kui couldn't help but say this.

 "..." Cong Yu was silent for a moment, and tried to break free but failed to break free from Xian Kui's tight grip... Don't do this, sister, he is a respectable man.

 But let her hold it for a while...

 "Yes, that's true for getting up, and it's true for life... But in any case, it's always a good experience to have someone lend a hand when you fall down, isn't it?"

 Cong Yu responded in this way...

 Cong Yu was quite adept at using the technique of speaking with hidden meanings.

 As Cong Yu said this, she walked towards her seat in the meditation room, which had already been thoroughly demolished by Etzel.

 At this moment, Xian Kui realized that she had been holding Cong Yu's hand the whole time. She immediately let go and pondered for a moment: "That makes sense... After experiencing it firsthand, it seems to be true."

 That's quite honest, actually.

 After being thoroughly beaten up, Xian Kui seemed to have given up on his stubborn "unmoved" act.

 Anyway, it seems like her power in this life has reached its limit; she's neither the best nor the worst off.

 Cong Yu sometimes couldn't help but sigh that Xian Kui was really like her former self... not in terms of being arrogant and stubborn.

 I've said it many times, he himself is not arrogant at all, it's pure slander. A man being arrogant sounds disgusting.

 The similarity refers to the aspect of "walking silently alone".

 "Do you understand now?"

 Regarding Cong Yu's question, Xian Kui, who was recovering from his injuries, pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Perhaps..."

 "After falling down, just seeing an outstretched hand can be a small comfort."

 As he said this, Xian Kui paused, then fell silent for a moment before honestly saying, "Unfortunately, I have no friends... and I don't know how to make any."

 The former is a statement, and the latter is also a statement.

 But to Cong Yu, it was no different from asking for a request for help.

 Shaking his head helplessly, Cong Yu looked at his phone, at a message from an acquaintance, and then glanced at Xian Kui.

 [Eileen Greneau: We've arrived in Brightmoon Town, China. The problem in Beidu has been resolved, and the Snow Maiden has already paid the reward.]

 [Eileen Grenor: There are some things I want to discuss with the King of Death, the King of Strife, and the Celestial Lord… I wonder if you could introduce us?]

 "..."

 "What a coincidence... Then I'll take you to find your friend."

 As Cong Yu said this, she looked at Xian Kui and invited, "It's a good way to help someone out completely. You might get along well with them."

 Xian Kui hesitated for a moment, wanting to say that she still needed to think about the matter of "Nascent Soul crushing Qi Refining", but she was also unwilling to refuse Cong Yu's invitation... For some reason, she always felt that Cong Yu was quite nice.

 I inexplicably feel a sense of "an older brother who is very similar to me," or even a "male" version of myself, a version that is "completely free of confusion."

 How could the immortal not yearn for such an ideal self, one that never falls into confusion?

 "it is good."

 So, Xian Kui answered by casually making up an excuse for his stubbornness: "A place for quiet cultivation also needs time to be repaired."

 She then followed Cong Yu out the door, waving to stop her subordinates who were guarding the gate outside from speaking, and left with only the word "repair" before departing.

 The two magical girls guarding the door couldn't help but glance at the meditation room, which startled them.

 Holy crap! It's all ruins now...

 Playing so big? !

 ……

 "If I take you to a coffee shop, you probably won't know which places have good coffee... So, shall I arrange a place?"

 Cong Yu asked this question.

 "it is good."

 Xian Kui answered in this way.

 "..."

 "By the way, the way you described me in your book is weird. The phrase 'blinding the sun and slaying the great evil' is too awful and misleading."

 "The negative impact on teenagers is immeasurable. I suggest you change it... to be worthy of someone as loving as me."

 Cong Yu said this.

 "it is good."

 Xian Kui answered in a way that... could only be described as quite obedient.

 -

 Zhao Anhua: "Teacher, I have some new information. Someone saw Xian Kui and that... King of Fengdu, going to a coffee shop to eat cake together."

 Zhao Anhua: "And he even had a smile on his face."

 "..." The magical girl silently drank.

 He took a sip of tea, nodded to show his understanding, and then gave a "I knew it" look.

 "Sigh... I'm afraid my worst fears have come true. It seems that China is almost finished."

 Zhao Anhua: "???"

 Chapter 670 Caught in the Act

 China has teahouses and restaurants, and similarly, coffee shops... Perhaps this is the value of Starbucks.

 Do you understand what a global chain is? A global chain.

 Although Cong Yu himself felt that Starbucks was just so-so and not as good as instant coffee... actually, he preferred instant coffee.

 Because many instant coffees are sweet enough.

 And sweetness is good.

 However, it's not impossible to have Xiankui take you to eat some local Chinese food... Milk tea would be nice too.

 Even just going out to make a cup of tea is fine, as long as you don't drink soy milk.

 However, considering the tastes of the Reverse Kings team and his own dislike of bitterness, Cong Yu ultimately arranged to meet at a coffee shop.

 It's a popular spot, similar to an afternoon tea shop, offering snacks and cookies in addition to coffee.

 "..."

 "A self-service coffee shop and instant coffee machines, along with a wide variety of inexpensive snacks... what a brilliant business idea."

 Xian Kui's calm and sharp comments made the waiter who came out with the biscuit plate feel a little embarrassed... but he didn't know what to say.

 Because this person is a celestial master.

 Who in China doesn't know Xiankui?!

 Many people wanted to gather around to take pictures, but they were blocked by the security guards responsible for security... That was the only use of the security guards.

 After all, they can't be expected to protect Xian Kui or Cong Yu's safety—purely a rebellious force against the Heavenly Gang.

 "Indeed, eighty-eight per person... It's not very expensive, but the quality of the pastries is really not very impressive."

 Cong Yu echoed Xian Kui's opinion, offering his own assessment with an equally expressionless face: "But the taste is passable, at least."

 "The differentiation between the dim sum is quite good; being able to try a wide variety of foods at once is worth the price..."

 "But I probably won't come back a second time."

 As she said this, Cong Yu, who considered her assessment to be fairly objective, picked up an ice cream scoop, scooped out a scoop of ice cream from the large tub full of ice cream, and threw it into the plate in her hand.

 Then, he saw Xian Kui silently raise the plate over. After a moment's thought, he also dug one for the other person.

 From this perspective, Xian Kui is actually quite outgoing.

 Or perhaps Xian Kui actually knows how friends should get along; she might not be socially anxious or autistic, but rather just socially lazy.

 Too lazy to socialize, I guess I'll just focus on getting stronger.

 Or rather, she was numbing herself with the idea of ​​"becoming stronger," making her ignore the fact that "no matter how strong you are, it's meaningless."

 This is even more serious than in the past, since Cong Yu has never made any excuses for his "inability to go back".

 With this thought in mind, Cong Yu turned to look at a member of the Reverse King team following behind: "Do you want one too?"

 In response to Cong Yu's words, the orange-haired member of the Rebel King team nodded and extended his index, middle, and ring fingers (why are X fingers censored?)...

 It probably means three.

 Cong Yu pondered that this magical girl who never spoke was the real socially awkward one... and she also really loved ice cream.

 Following the other person's instructions, I scooped out two scoops of ice cream of different flavors and placed them on the plate of the eager magical girl.

 One is a dark chocolate flavor, like ink, and the other is a green matcha flavor, like tea.

 The last one is naturally strawberry flavored.

 ……

 When the three returned to their seats, Erin Grenouille, Semaiebo, and a blonde magical girl (a member of the Reverse Kings team) were already sitting there.

 Moreover, at this moment, the Reverse King Squad has already learned how to get along with people like the Monster King or the Immortal King.

 Just treat each other with a normal attitude.

 That's enough...

 So, while eating her little cake, Eileen introduced herself to Xiankui and then simply placed a book on the table.

 "What I want to talk about is related to a spell we have mastered, and the balance of positive and negative magic in this world."

 Cong Yu knew what the book was without even looking at it, given that Erin Grenault was saying this.

 Without a doubt...

 It is a book of techniques from "The Source of Interception: Brilliance".

 "The balance of positive and negative magic..."

 Xian Kui repeated, then nodded with a slight understanding: "Ah, the increasingly powerful magical energy these days has been partly due to your efforts... I don't know if the situation is getting better or worse."

 From Cong Yu's perspective, the future is not necessarily getting worse... but it's also hard to say it's getting better.

 If we look at it from a purely human perspective...

 The world probably hasn't changed much...

 The conflict between monsters and magical girls makes little difference to many ordinary people... since being caught in the crossfire means certain death anyway.

 It seems to have been the same for the past hundred years: when the dynasty prospers, the people suffer; when the dynasty falls, the people suffer... In the world of magic, this has never changed.

 Perhaps this is also one aspect of the world of magic.

 Thinking this way, Cong

 Yu quietly ate her small cake, listening intently as the Rebel Kings team explained the whole story to Xian Kui.

 While they were answering each other's questions and asking each other questions, Cong Yu noticed that some acquaintances seemed to have also come to enjoy the afternoon tea buffet.

 I came here entirely after reading the comments on "People's Review".

 After all, we're all unfamiliar with the area... It's perfectly normal to refer to the recommendations on the app when choosing where to eat.

 "Oh, it's alright, it's just eighty-eight, what's with all this talk of a celestial master... We can go see him after we've eaten our fill!"

 Dente's voice was loud, filled with the feeling of "the landlord's foolish son... the foolish daughter".

 The feeling is overwhelming: "A nouveau riche kid who suddenly became wealthy, an arrogant second-generation rich kid."

 However, they might not be quite the same. After all, those rich kids seem to like to say "My dad is XXX" all the time, while Dente would at least be a little more restrained...maybe?

 Cong Yu had some doubts.

 "Am I not allowed to spend money, the granddaughter of the Pope, the next Pope, and a friend of the leader of the last vampire alliance?"

 Dente patted his chest as he said this, and turned to Selena beside him, saying, "Keep eating and drinking! If you're with me from now on and you don't spend two thousand a day, you'll be a disgrace to me!"

 That's it, I feel like Dente is almost beyond saving.
