Succubus Star Sister, but the original god

Unexpected incidents, the mysteries of the immortals... After understanding them, Hu Tao's attitude changed. She was willing to treat Qi Qi as an exception and let her continue to live in this world.

She even started to show concern for Qiqi, but unfortunately, Qiqi's psychological trauma was too great and she didn't like her at all.

Chapter 14 Two People Drinking Tea in Front of Yujing Terrace

In the pavilion near Bubu Lu.

Qiqi sat next to Xing, holding a cup of coconut milk in both hands and drinking it in small sips.

This was something Xing specially bought from a nearby store. Hu Tao said this is Qiqi's favorite.

Hu Tao sat on the other side of Xing and gave Xing a simple explanation about Qi Qi's situation.

"Anyway, that's it." Walnut sighed slightly and finally explained everything clearly to Xing. Otherwise, it would be bad if Xing misunderstood that Wangshengtang was a terrorist organization.

"Oh, I see..." Xing turned his head and looked at Qiqi.

I didn't expect this child to have such a heartbreaking past.

"I used to use coconut milk to fish for Qiqi, and I always caught one. But later on, Qiqi didn't fall for it." Hu Tao also turned his head to look at Qiqi and said with a smile.

Qiqi shrank back again, hiding completely beside Xing.

"I guess this kid has already figured out a way to deal with it?" Xing looked at Hu Tao speechlessly.

According to Hu Tao, as a zombie, Qiqi's memory is not very good.

In this situation, he was able to remember what time period he should hide and how to avoid Walnut.

If Hu Tao hadn't brought Xing to Bubu Lu today to familiarize herself with the environment of Liyue Harbor, she probably wouldn't have bumped into Hu Tao.

"It seems like it will take a long time to make Qiqi trust me." Hu Tao said with his hands spread out.

"Hutao, you're so annoying." Qiqi finished drinking the coconut milk and put it aside, then took Xing's hand and hugged her arm. She seemed to think that as long as she held Xing, she would not be taken away by Hutao.

"Hu Tao will never hurt you again." Xing gently touched Qi Qi's cheek and said softly.

It was icy cold, and the zombies didn’t seem to have human body temperature, but they felt very good to the touch.

"You, like it." Qiqi raised her head and looked at Xing, her face still expressionless, and no emotion could be read in her pupils.

If it were someone else, perhaps such a cold voice would only make people think that the word "like" was just a casual perfunctory response.

But Qiqi is different, Xing can feel it.

"Thank you, I like Qiqi too." Xing smiled gently.

Although Qiqi's liking might be affected by her physique, she was very happy that such a cute child could say the word "like" to her no matter what the reason was.

I really want to take her home and raise her as a daughter... and a daughter who is a different type from Diona.

Unfortunately not.

"It's really strange to say that Qiqi would take the initiative to approach you." Hu Tao looked at this scene and couldn't help but recall what happened just now.

Qiqi seemed to have not reacted when she first saw her, but when Qiqi finally remembered, she ran behind Xing almost in an instant.

In the past, she always hid behind Bai Zhu. This was because Bai Zhu picked up Qiqi a long time ago and saved Qiqi from Hu Tao so many times.

But Xing and Qiqi had only met for the first time, but Qiqi subconsciously hid towards Xing.

"If you hadn't done those things, I think Qiqi would have been willing to get close to you." Xing shook her head. Although she mostly relied on her physique, Qiqi was essentially a very good child. If you got along well with her, she would never be hated.

"There's nothing we can do about it. Yin and Yang are in order. Besides, Bai Zhu has his own purpose in adopting Qiqi..." Hu Tao's voice gradually faded away.

The pursuit of immortality goes against the laws of life and death, and it is difficult for Walnut to agree with this idea.

But she didn't want to tell Xing more about these things.

---------------------------------------------------------------

They quickly said goodbye to Qiqi. Qiqi had to go back to Bubulu, and they also planned to continue walking towards Yujingtai.

Before parting, Qiqi specifically asked Xing's name, and then carefully wrote down Xing's name in her little notebook.

"The annual ceremony of inviting the immortals will be held at Yujingtai, and the old Emperor Yanwang will also issue oracles here at that time." Hu Tao jumped in front, introducing things related to Yujingtai to Xing along the way.

Xing also listened very seriously. Since this was the place where the ceremony of inviting the immortals was held, he had to pay close attention. After all, if there was really no way to reasonably enter the process of the ceremony, then in the end he could only use some not-so-bright means.

"Look there." Walnut pointed to the sky.

Xingye looked in the direction where Kurumi's finger pointed and saw a palace floating in the distant sky.

Yujingtai is quite high, so from here, the outline of the palace is relatively clear, and you can even vaguely see people walking on it.

"Could it be the Qun Yu Pavilion?" Xing couldn't help but ask.

"That's right, it's Tianquan Ningguang's Jade Pavilion. No matter how many times you see it, it's always so spectacular... I hope our Wangsheng Hall can be of this scale someday." Hu Tao exclaimed.

"..." Automatically ignoring Hu Tao's next words, Xing stared at the Qun Yu Pavilion in the sky without blinking.

She inexplicably felt that there was a pair of eyes from above fixed on her, staring at her from a distance.

"I wonder if there is any way to get up there..."

"Apart from getting an invitation from Tianquan Star, there shouldn't be any other good way, right?" Hu Tao thought about it seriously and then said.

"Okay, let's keep going."

"Hmm..." Xing nodded and looked away.

The Jade Pavilion is indeed magnificent. I heard that it was only the size of a room at first. Thanks to Ningguang’s efforts, it finally reached its current size after several years.

When I chatted with Hu Tao before, I also heard Hu Tao's comments about her:

[Heavenly power condenses light, rich and powerful; bright eyes are good at looking, peaches are ashamed of apricots; eyes are sharp and ears are connected, hundreds and thousands of things are known. ]

No matter how you look at it, Tian Quanxing is a very powerful woman.

"Hey!" Walnut suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Xing's mind was still thinking about Tianquan Xing Ningguang, and he almost bumped into Hu Tao who suddenly stopped.

"I've met an acquaintance. Come on, I'll take you to meet him." Hu Tao took Xing's hand and walked towards a corner of Yujingtai without saying a word.

"Ah? An acquaintance?" Xing turned his head and looked into the distance.

There was a flower bed, in front of which was a set of tables and chairs. Two people were sitting together drinking tea and chatting, a young man and an old woman.

As he watched, Xing's brows slowly frowned.

These two people gave her very different feelings.

Although she couldn't describe what this feeling was exactly, but...

In any case, they are definitely not ordinary people.

Chapter 15 No one sends himself away

One of them is called Zhongli, who is one of the guests of Hu Tao's Hall of Rebirth and seems to have a very good relationship with Hu Tao.

The other one calls herself Grandma Ping. She looks like an ordinary old lady, but upon closer inspection, she seems to be more than that.

Xing first greeted both of them politely.

She always felt that it wasn't just her who felt something was wrong with the two of them. The two of them seemed to have noticed something wrong with her as well.

"This young man seems to have a good relationship with the hall master." Zhongli said slowly. He glanced at Hu Tao and Xing's hands which were still holding each other.

"Ah, well, Hu Tao helped us a lot..." Xing then realized that Hu Tao was still holding her hand. She tried a little harder, but was unable to pull her hand away from Hu Tao.

Although they have not known Hu Tao for a long time, Hu Tao is very enthusiastic and has given them a lot of help.

Of course, this might be partly due to her physical condition, but no matter what, she was very grateful to Walnut.

"Of course, Xing is my best friend." Hu Tao held Xing's hand tightly and said to Zhongli with a smile.

"Sincerely, dear friend..." Xing thought Hu Tao would tell Zhongli that she was a new guy in Wangsheng Hall.

Although the word "best friend" is not a very rare rating for Hu Tao, both Qi Qi and Da Mi and Er Mi who appeared earlier have won this honor from Hu Tao.

But even though they are close friends, the meanings they represent seem to be different.

It depends on how Walnut defines this word.

"I see." Zhongli nodded and looked at Xing again.

This made Xing inexplicably nervous, as if he was being taken by his girlfriend to meet her parents.

"This little girl is so pretty. Come, please sit down." Grandma Ping smiled and asked the two to sit down. She took out two chairs from somewhere and poured them a cup of hot tea.

Xing and Kurumi also sat down, and finally let go of the hands they were holding.

"How come Hall Master has time to come to Yujingtai today?" Zhongli picked up the teacup and blew on it, but then put it down again.

"Of course I'm bringing my best friend to Liyue for a stroll. She's new here and isn't familiar with the place yet," Hu Tao explained.

"Oh? Is this your first time in Liyue?" Zhongli looked at Xing.

"Well, yes, yes, come and watch the ceremony of inviting the immortal." Xing nodded and said, she was inexplicably nervous facing Zhongli.

"Come and see the ceremony of inviting the immortals..." Grandma Ping nodded, and her eyes seemed to change, but Xing didn't notice.

There are indeed many foreigners who are interested in the ceremony of inviting the immortals, but those people would not come so long in advance. Perhaps this girl has other reasons.

"But it's too early, so for now I can only work in the Wangsheng Hall to make a living..." Xing touched his head and said embarrassedly.

"Yes, yes. Now Xing is considered a temporary employee of our Wangsheng Hall. He works for two months for free without any salary." Hu Tao said with a smile.

“Working in the Wangsheng Hall…” Zhongli touched his chin.

Working in the Hall of Rebirth, I’m afraid there is basically no work available.

Although Wangshengtang is the largest funeral institution in Liyue, it is basically the first choice for Liyue people to hold funerals.

But funerals don’t happen every day, and it’s even possible that the business may not open for half a year.

For two months, maybe the only job is to play with the hall master...

"Speaking of which, Zhongli, you have to take better care of our Xingbao when the time comes. You know a lot, and she will definitely be able to learn well." Hu Tao said to Zhongli, and gave Xing a strange nickname.

"Pfft, Xingbao?" Xing almost spit out the tea he was drinking. It was the first time he heard someone call him like that.

"As for the nickname, I just came up with it."

Hu Tao's thinking has always been very jumpy, for example, he previously classified customers into different categories.

Xing only found out later that it was just an idea that Hu Tao came up with on the spur of the moment. In fact, Wangsheng Hall had never defined adventurers as [Peach] level guests.

"Then should I also call you Taobao... Uh, I always feel that this is weird." Xing raised his eyebrows.

It feels like calling the name of a certain platform, which is a bit strange.

After all, I'll continue to call her Walnut...

"Oh, Hall Master, don't worry, I will do my best." Zhongli smiled softly and nodded.

As a guest official, his duty was to give lectures to the ceremonial officers of the Hall of the Rebirth to improve their quality.

However, he felt that he would not have much time to teach this girl in the future.

-----------------------------------------

The two did not stay too long at Zhongli and Grandma Ping's place. They just took a simple break, drank two cups of tea, and then left quickly.

Grandma Ping and Zhongli watched the two people slowly leave.

"What do you think, that girl..." Grandma Ping didn't finish her words, but Zhongli understood what she wanted to say.

"It's okay. Although it's dangerous, there's no harm." Zhongli shook his head and said slowly.

This visitor from outer space had some strange and terrifying energy in his body, which Zhongli could see.

It seems to be an unstable factor, but there is no indication from the sky, so they don't need to be too anxious.

Even in the future, this girl might become their helper.

"It seems that Hu Tao likes her very much." Grandma Ping smiled slightly. She also did not think that the girl was a threat to Liyue.

The girl even gave her an inexplicable sense of intimacy, which made her like her very much.
