One night passed, the two of them cuddled on the carpet in the study room, and everything was in a mess. Open books were scattered everywhere, as if there had been a fierce battle.
"Master, you are so amazing~"
Chen Xing laughed loudly and patted the head maid on the shoulder, "You are also very good."
The charming atmosphere lasted for a while, and Chen Xing rang the bell to call Ye Qian and Li Mei. I put on the bathrobe sent by the maid, went to the bath to change, and then went to the restaurant to have breakfast.
Chen Xing gave Jian Yue Cang Lian a day off as a guest instead of the head maid.
Jian Yue Canglian was not used to dining at the same table with her master, and she felt a little restless. However, Chen Xing repeatedly emphasized that it was only for one day, and Jian Yue Canglian accepted it calmly as a reward for being promoted to the Holy Realm.
"When you stabilize your realm, I will find a suitable undercurrent relic for you."
Jian Yue Canglian hesitated for a few seconds, raised her head, looked at Chen Xing across the long table and said, "Master, I feel a strong resonance in you. Maybe you have something suitable for me."
Chen Xing was slightly stunned. He only had one undercurrent relic on his body, and then he pulled out a pendant made of black pottery fragments from his neck, "Is this it?"
Jian Yue Cang Lian shook her head.
Chen Xing carefully thought about the items on his body, stretched out his hand to grab it, and took out a tree species the size of a yellow lemon from the storage space.
"Is it this one?"
Jian Yue Cang Lian's eyes widened and she stared at the seeds of the Tree of Life. Her expression already gave the answer, just like when Chen Xing saw the Goblin skull for the first time.
"then."
Chen Xing tossed it casually, and the tree species flew towards the Moon Seeing Canglian in an arc. The latter stretched out his hand to grab it and caught it in the air.
"Thank you Master for your grace."
Jian Yue Canglian, who had a cold nature, showed a rare expression of surprise. She left her position and came to Chen Xing, knelt down on her knees and expressed her gratitude to her master.
This tree species is a bit useless to Chen Xing. It has no resonance and he dare not plant it. If it can resonate with the moon-seeing Canglian, it can be regarded as a good use.
"Don't rush to communicate with the undercurrent of time and space. Wait until your realm is stable and everything is foolproof before you start." Chen Xing taught as a person who has experienced it.
"As you command, my master."
After breakfast, Chen Xing asked Jian Yue Canglian to continue practicing while he went to the lobby to browse the news.
With the help of Dr. Akita, the small satellite signal receiving station in Orchid Town has been put into use. As a scientific observation station connected to the main network, although the signal is weak and intermittent, and only a few fixed sub-terminals can be connected, it can basically meet the needs.
[Marquis of Red Rock, Copperhammer Grantham scolded Trilis and Aaliyah, "They are a bunch of thieving bitches!"]
[Duke Black Feather, Dongfang Xuanyuan talks to Bronze Hammer Grantham, "Be careful with your beard."]
[Marquis of Shangshui, Takijian River II, "We will protect the glory of the water weasel clan!"]
[Duke Bai Ye, Bai Wancheng shouted to Duke Tianqin, "Don't lose big for small things!"]
[Duchess of Dawn Moon, Delys Mante, shouts to Marquis of River Bird, "When you get the fish, you forget about the fish trap, when you forget about the ancestral line, it's sad, hateful, and pitiful!"]
…
Nowadays, the community network in the Red Country is full of all kinds of heavy information. In peacetime, every one of them would shock the world, but now it is just one of many waves.
In just a few days, Ambergris River has been torn apart and can be divided into thirteen major camps.
Trilis occupied the Ice Blue City and obtained the River Bird and the White Night Principality.
support.
Triris did not directly ascend the throne as the queen, but controlled the overall situation by "ruling on behalf of the queen", but everyone could see that it was just a temporary measure during a transitional period. After all, the Malan royal family has ruled this land for thousands of years. Whether it is out of respect for tradition or to make the supporting nobles feel better, a hypocritical mask is still needed.
Similarly, Aaliyah did not directly ascend the throne as king, but inherited the royal family as a princess.
Hence the term "South Queen and North Princess".
To put it bluntly, openly seizing other people's property will be criticized even in a world where the strong are respected.
The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, his lips are cold and his teeth are dead. If you go too far, other royal families will definitely feel jealous, fearing that one day their families will encounter the same disaster, thus attracting the hostility of the whole world.
Obviously, Trilis and Aaliyah have no intention of becoming an enemy of the world, and selling some of their status does not affect their actual power.
Except for the two women, nine principalities including Lyra, Norton, Red Mulberry, Xiaoyue, and Nice in the south, and nine principalities in the north such as Red Rock, Silver Claw, Water Weasel, and Black Spear declared independence. Although Tezera and the Ten City-States did not declare independence, , but said that "the current situation is in chaos, and in order to fight against foreign enemies, I have disobeyed the emperor's orders", which means that he will not listen to anyone.
Thirteen camps are engaged in a war of words online, hurling insults and accusations at each other.
In fact, Chen Xing doesn't care about this. The fight between gods in the sky has little to do with him, the mayor of a marginal town.
The reason he paid attention to the news was to prepare for what was to come. When the principalities close their borders, what route can be taken to Seagull Island?
Because he planned to find and visit Shad Sinclair and ask him about the ghost ship.
In recent times, his resonance with the black pottery fragments has gradually deepened, communicating with the undercurrents of time and space, and guiding the black pottery urn to be completed soon.
The attributes of the personal domain have a great influence on the affinity of Yuling.
The reason why the Linghai is ranked at the bottom of the four major domains is that on the one hand the effect of doubling the capacity is small, and on the other hand it is because there are very few Yulings that are compatible with the Linghai.
For example, mechanical Yulings cannot enter the Spiritual Sea. They will sink into the sea water and their engines will burn out.
Although some marine life is suitable for the spiritual sea, due to human activities on land, the performance of marine life on land is very poor.
Among all the spirits, the ghost ship is the most suitable for the spirit sea.
However, Chen Xing did not find any undercurrent relics related to the ghost ship, so he planned to go to the Legend of the Deep Sea for guidance.
Although his Goblin legion is large, its individual strength is too weak. If it encounters a truly powerful opponent, it can only be used as cannon fodder. For example, Lacey's "Manticore", a firestorm is enough for him to drink a pot, and it is even more embarrassing to encounter a group of snakes.
Therefore, he must have a capable Yuling who can confront his opponent head-on.
Shade Sinclair's deep-sea warship left an indelible impression on him. The scene of thousands of cannons firing was often replayed in his mind. That was how men fought.
He didn't know where the Deep Sea Legend was, but he heard that Seagull Island, more than 200 kilometers east of Jinfen Port, was a gathering place for free fishermen, and he might be able to find useful clues there.
"Sir, there is something I don't know whether to talk about..."
Chen Xing was watching the news when Lao K suddenly spoke, but he hesitated and hesitated.
"Old friend, please speak." Chen Xing said with a gentle smile. He couldn't help but wonder what made this serious and upright steward so hesitant.
"Sir, do you remember the dance before?"
Old K asked, Chen Xing nodded.
Old K continued, "At the dance, Xiao Yang and Mr. Guo's daughter Guo Ying were very attached to each other, and the two danced until dawn."
"This is a good thing." Chen Xing said.
"This is indeed a good thing. Mr. Guo has high moral character, Guo Ying is very caring for children, and Xiao Yang is also a good young man. If they can be together, it will be a good thing, but..."
"But what?" Chen Xing asked.
"But in the past few days, Xiao Yang has secretly dated a woman from outside. I have met that woman once. She speaks in a coquettish voice and is pretentious. She looks like an immoral woman at first glance. If possible, could you please give me some advice? Yang." Old K said earnestly, "Young people must have a sense of responsibility and not be intoxicated by sensuality..."
"What, Xiao Yang actually dares to ride on two boats!" Chen Xing was furious. Xiao Yang actually dared to be half-hearted about the daughter of the black monster. How could this be worthy of the self-sacrificing black monster? It was simply intolerable. He slapped the armrest of the sofa on the spot, "Come on, take me to see who it is that has fascinated our Assistant Yang!"
"My lord, don't alert the enemy. Find out the situation first and then make a decision."
"I know this. Where is Xiao Yang now?"
"This morning, the cook saw Xiao Yang and the woman having breakfast at the cafe on Zhen Street. Lunch is coming soon, and they should be looking for a place to have lunch."
"Okay, send someone to run around immediately to see where he is."
"Yes, Master!"
Orchid Town is small and somewhat upscale, with no more than thirty places to have lunch. Xiao Yang's whereabouts were quickly found.
Chen Xing and Lao K put on casual clothes and sunglasses and sneaked across to Xiao Yang.
A woman with fair skin and a beautiful face sat opposite Xiao Yang. Her expression was indifferent, like a superior goddess.
Although Chen Xing's aesthetics is only about 70%, which belongs to the beauty of wild flowers, in front of ordinary people, she is already at the level of a goddess.
At this moment, Xiao Yang was extremely attentive, even more attentive than when he was around Chen Xing. With a flattering smile on his face, he helped him cut vegetables and pour water, as if he was kneeling and licking.
"This is the woman who has been coming to Orchid Town for a while. She asks Xiao Yang to treat her to dinner every day and orders the most expensive things. Xiao Yang is almost broke." Old K said next to her.
When Chen Xing saw the woman's appearance clearly, he immediately became furious.
Because the other party was none other than Qian Ying who had taken money from him several times and promised not to pester Xiao Yang again.
What a shame!
Chen Xing secretly made up his mind that this time she would not dare to do it again in her life.
Waiting patiently for the two of them to have dinner, with Chen Xing and Lao K following behind, Xiao Yang sent Qian Ying to her accommodation and left.
Chen Xing asked Lao K to go back first, walked to the back of the hotel, and teleported up with a flash of lightning.
"ah!"
When Qian Ying returned to the room, she took off her shirt, revealing her bra that was stuffed with white meat. Suddenly a man appeared in front of her. She was so frightened that her face turned pale and she couldn't help but scream loudly.
At this time, Xiao Yang hadn't gone far when he heard a throat-piercing scream coming from upstairs. He was immediately frightened and thought something had happened to the goddess, so he hurried back.
"What happened!"
"Don't be afraid, I'm coming!"
Xiao Yang shouted anxiously as he rushed to the second floor of the hotel.
