The people were collapsing the iron, giving the immortal boat a little shock to the Holy Lord

"I am also very curious about Xumi. Many of their inventions are very meaningful."

A rare look of curiosity appeared on Xianyun's face.

"Well, let's go!"

Bai Zhi didn't hesitate. After saying this, she took the lead and took a step forward.

The others shook their heads and quickly followed Bai Zhi.

Not long after, the view ahead suddenly became clear. Different from the steep terrain of Liyue, Xumi had some characteristics of a tropical rainforest and looked very vibrant.

The sacred statue of the grass god stands high up, adding to the atmosphere of the place.

We have arrived at Huacheng City.

Before Paimon could say anything, a scream came from above the crowd.

"Get out of the way!!"

"boom!"

A black shadow fell and Paimon, who was about to stand in front and introduce this place to everyone, was hit directly.

........

After a second of silence, Xianyun immediately made some hand seals and became alert to his surroundings.

Bai Zhi shook her head and looked at the thing that fell down... Oh no, to be precise, it should be a person.

With green hair, black clothes that were very characteristic of Xumi, and two obvious ribbons behind him, Bai Zhi easily recognized who this person was.

Yes, it is our Xumi guide——Colai

"It's okay, Sister Xianyun, this should just be an accident."

Baizhi comforted Xianyun and asked her to retract her attacking stance, then looked at Kelai and waved her hand, activating the chicken spell to separate her from Paimeng who was pinned down underneath.

Our poor little Paimon has fainted, probably because of the great physical impact.

"This little Paimeng has fainted. Miss Ying also said that little Paimeng is emergency food. Otherwise, we..."

Looking at the fainted little Paimeng, Bai Zhi suddenly said with some evil humor.

"Ah, no, Paimon is not some kind of emergency food!!"

Paimon, who seemed to have fainted, woke up immediately.

"It's small, but looks pretty strong~" Bai Zhi teased.

"Your body is also small, but also very strong." Paimon retorted unwillingly.

"Maybe we shouldn't dwell on this now, Miss, are you okay?"

Zhongli brought the topic back in time.

"I'm fine." Cole held his head and explained with tears in his eyes:

"I'm sorry, you must be the travelers who just arrived at Xumi. I was just collecting some herbs and wanted to fly down with the wings of wind, but my magic scale disease happened to flare up, and my hands and feet were a little out of control, so I fell on this... Miss Paimon."

"To express my apologies, please come to my house. I will prepare some Xumi specialties for you as compensation."

Cole stood up weakly, and then spoke to everyone in a reserved manner in a very Inazuma-style apology.

"Great, we have food to eat!" The first one to speak was naturally Paimon, the little guy who forgot everything else when he had food to eat.

"Demon scale disease?" Xianyun raised his red-framed glasses and asked with some confusion.

"Well, it's a chronic disease. Scales grow on the body, and people gradually lose consciousness..."

When Cole talked about this, his expression became a little reluctant, but then he became a little excited. "Although it sounds serious, it doesn't matter. My master has been studying how to cure it. You don't know my master, his name is Tinari, and he is a top student in the Order Academy."

"Master Tinari developed a lot of medicine for me. Although it didn't completely cure me, it has delayed my condition a lot."

Just as Cole was introducing himself, a group of people in blue uniforms quickly came up to the crowd.

"Are you guests from Liyue official website?"

The leader, a middle-aged man wearing glasses, didn't care about Cole at all. He pushed her aside and asked loudly.

"If you mean visits, it is indeed us."

Seeing Clay being pushed aside, Bai Zhi frowned, but still answered the group's questions.

"Ah.... Hello, respected..." An almost visible expression of flattery appeared on the face of the middle-aged man with glasses.

"Don't call me that name, you can call me Baizhi."

"I understand, respected Lord Baizhi, your arrival has made our humble home more glorious."

The middle-aged man with glasses understood Bai Zhi's idea almost instantly. It was a secret visit, and it was too ostentatious to loudly call out the title and name of the god. It was also normal to use a pseudonym to inspect various places.

"You are quite sensible."

Although this guy's attitude towards Clay was not very good, it must be said that this guy is indeed a smart guy. When Bai Zhi said something, he could immediately grasp the essence of it.

"Dear distinguished guests, we have arranged the highest-class guest rooms in Xumi City. Please follow us."

The middle-aged man with glasses half-bent his body and made a very enthusiastic gesture of invitation.

Bai Zhi waved her hand, "There's no rush. This girl said she wants to treat us to Xumi cuisine, so let's go visit her first."

"Visiting her home?"

The middle-aged man with glasses then looked at Ke Lai, a trace of contempt flashed across his eyes, and then he turned to persuade:

"Dear guests, in fact, we have already prepared a banquet of the highest level in Xumi City. You don't need to waste your time here. Moreover, the great sage also wants to have a chat with you, hoping that your wisdom can give you more inspiration."

"It's okay. Just experience the local customs and culture of Xumi. It would be boring to just stay in the guest room arranged by the government, right?"

After the middle-aged man with glasses mentioned the great sage, Bai Zhi raised her eyebrows slightly, then looked at Ke Lai who was a little at a loss. She felt that the reason to see the Grass God was ready.

"This... If you insist, we have no objection, but this ordinary family may not be able to perfectly display the essence of our Xumi cuisine. After eating, you may be a little dissatisfied, which shows that we Xumi are not hospitable enough."

The middle-aged man with glasses hesitated for a moment and had to say this. After all, he couldn't limit the choice of a god.

136 Zhongli: Baizhi has the potential to become an emperor!

"You are using such a small place to entertain guests. It's really rude. You are so poor, why are you still talking big?"

Everyone came to Cole's residence. When the official wearing glasses saw Cole's simple residence, he immediately got angry and started scolding loudly.

"You don't have to be so harsh....Do you usually talk like this?"

Baizhi was quite speechless. She hadn't even said anything yet, but you spoke first.

"Ah, haha, sorry, I was just impatient at the moment, that's why I acted like this."

The bespectacled official immediately turned around, looking apologetic, but his disdain for Cole was clearly evident in his eyes.

Cole pursed his lips, but didn't say anything. He went to prepare food silently.

"Hey, you're being unreasonable, aren't you?"

Paimeng felt a little unfair.

"Miss...I just spoke too quickly. The main reason is that the guest is of noble status. We at Xumi must receive him well. I believe you can understand."

The bespectacled official responded to Paimon's words slowly and calmly, with a hint of arrogance in his tone.

As a high-ranking official in the Citadel, he would not be arrogant towards the Demon God, but if he faced a little fool, his arrogance would be revealed.

"Damn guy, your attitude is disgusting!" Paimon stomped his feet angrily.

Bai Zhi shook her head and asked, "Regarding the demon scale disease on Ke Lai, do you know what it is?"

"Oh, I know about that." The bespectacled official smiled slightly. "Devil scale disease is said to be caused by excessive exposure to forbidden knowledge. Scales will grow on the body, and as the scales grow more and more, the body will become unable to move, and finally become a complete vegetable."

"Hmm... I see." Bai Zhi nodded as if she understood, and asked casually: "As the country with the most scholars, does Xumi have any scholars who can solve this problem?"

Perhaps because Bai Zhi's words seemed like idle chat, the official with glasses did not take any precautions and answered very bluntly: "You are joking. Although Xumi is a country of wisdom, it cannot solve all problems."

"Human wisdom always has its limits, and the Demonic Scale Disease is also beyond this limit of wisdom. We can only achieve simple relief, and it requires very troublesome steps."

"In other words, you can't solve this problem?" Bai Zhi asked with a smile.

"Although I am somewhat unwilling, sir, this is indeed the case."

"Then have you ever thought about asking a higher wisdom for a solution? For example...the God of Grass? As the god of wisdom, she should have a solution, right?"

Baizhi continued the conversation and brought the topic to Nashida.

"Little Auspicious Grass King... ahem, Little Auspicious Grass King is still young and needs time to grow. Besides, this is just a relatively rare disease. There are not many cases in the entire Xumi. There is no need to trouble Lord Grass God."

"If Lord Grass God does everything, then what will our Order Institute do? Don't you agree?"

"That's true. It's impossible to ask the gods to take care of everything personally." Bai Zhi easily revealed the matter, causing the official with glasses to breathe a sigh of relief.

He was really afraid that this Rock God from Liyue would ask him about Nashida, which would be difficult for him to explain, and his life might even be in danger.

At this moment, accompanied by a scream, Cole, who was holding the food, staggered at some point, and the food in his hand flew out and came towards everyone.

The bespectacled official's expression changed immediately. He could already foresee that the plate of scorching food would fly onto Rock God's face.

But then, Bai Zhi stretched out her hand, and the food flying in the air stopped in the air.

This made the bespectacled official feel relieved, but then he became completely furious. He immediately rushed over, raised his arm, ready to teach this ungrateful guy a lesson.

However, when he raised his right hand to strike, he found that his hand could not move at all.

"I think there are problems with the way you treat the people. This is enough. Miss Cole didn't do it on purpose. I think it was caused by her magic scale disease."

The bespectacled official's expression changed, but he still nodded.

"Well, let's enjoy the food, Cole, you come too."

Zhongli watched the entire conflict from the side and couldn't help but feel relieved. No matter what Baizhi's true form was, at least her compassion for the people was enough to make him feel happy.

He is knowledgeable, has a broad perspective, is capable, and also has compassion for the people.

This is simply the seed of a perfect ruler.

I think this Angelica dahurica has the potential to become an emperor!

Such a perfect seedling...I should pay more attention to her and teach her everything I know.

By then, I will be able to retire perfectly and no longer have to worry about anything else. Liyue will also be able to run smoothly for at least several thousand years.

It’s such a beautiful thing to think about.

Xianyun glanced at Zhongli with some concern. This man with an inexplicably familiar temperament had been laughing at something just now. It was strange.

He seemed quite calm and composed, but now it seems that appearance is not the best indicator of a person's character.

At that time, I must remind the Emperor that this guy is an unreliable person and not to be fooled by his boastful appearance.

Compared to Zhongli's profound thoughts, Paimon and the Traveler were pure foodies. They started eating non-stop as soon as Cole's food was served.

I also tried Baizhi, it tasted pretty good, fried crispy dough balls with a rich sauce, very exotic.

"How do you...feel?"

Ke Lai asked timidly. From the words and actions of the bespectacled official from Xumi City, she had vaguely guessed that Bai Zhi was probably a big shot, and not just an ordinary big shot.

Because ordinary guests would never be taken seriously to this extent by the officials of Xumi City, and they would even get so angry if he just ate a little of her food.

But she didn't think too much about it. She just thought he was a distinguished guest and it had nothing to do with her. As long as she could perform her best, she would feel at ease.

"Very good, come on, child."

Baizhi waved to Ke Lai.

"What do you want?"

Ke Lai walked over with some confusion, only to find Bai Zhi's hand gently stroking her head.

In an instant, a vibrant and burning force rushed into her body, and her limbs, which had begun to become stiff due to the demonic scale disease, actually regained their original consciousness, which was rare.
