"Okay, I'll be waiting for you. It just so happens that I'm at the age where I need to get married. With a handsome and promising young man like you, I'm definitely not losing out."
Jiang Ning fell silent. "No, why is your nightmare acting so unpredictably?"
He sighed and gave up: "Lisa, what's wrong? Tell me..."
Lisa smiled and said, "Call me 'older sister'."
"Lisa, I'm serious, if you have anything to say, just say it..."
"Call me 'sister'."
Although Lisa was still smiling, for some reason, Jiang Ning felt that if he didn't do as Lisa said, he would be tricked badly.
So he could only obediently say, "Sister..."
"Mmm, so good, little cutie." Lisa felt completely comfortable from that call.
"Actually, it's nothing much. I often enjoy afternoon tea, and with such a lovely and pleasing person like you in front of me, the black tea and pastries taste even better."
"However, I won't leave you here for nothing. Although I'm not omniscient, I do know quite a few things and legends. If you have any questions, just ask me."
Lisa, holding a cup of red tea, abandoned her alluring demeanor and revealed her true nature as an elegant and intellectual scholar.
Although Jiang Ning was skeptical that such a good thing could really happen, he still honestly asked:
"Hmm, how exactly do I obtain this demon god's body? I feel like my powers are enough, but my physical condition isn't up to par."
Lisa was somewhat surprised: "Your master should be that Rock King Emperor, right? Didn't he tell you?"
"No, my master is a demon god himself, so he hasn't deliberately looked into these things. I heard that he is also consulting ancient texts to help me find a solution."
Jiang Ning shook his head. Although he could slowly and reluctantly refine his body through dual cultivation, it was still too slow.
"Well, although I'm not sure either, according to the ancient records, constantly tempering one's body should be possible one day... Don't you guys in Liyue have those novels where people stand under a tall waterfall, enduring the cascading water, and then use lightning to temper their bodies? You could give it a try."
Lisa made a joke.
Jiang Ning said, "Sigh, I'll go back and ask my master again..."
However, he did keep Lisa's words in mind and would discuss them with his master when he got back, just in case they were useful.
"Sigh, Qin has started to act tough again lately, but fortunately, those cunning and sly guys won't go too far, which makes things a little easier for Qin."
Lisa suddenly sighed, then looked at Jiang Ning with a half-smile.
"Little guy, you're digging in the corner really comfortably."
Jiang Ning feigned ignorance: "What?"
But I was still somewhat relieved. Luckily, I listened to my system and didn't try to poach talent with my own cleverness. Otherwise... I reckon we'd be at the point of falling out with Mondstadt by now.
But then again, the little bad things I did felt like petty theft, and I was really looking forward to doing something big.
As a result, his teammates carried the team while he was just lying around the whole time. He bullied others by taking advantage of Liyue's background, both with Yura and with the usurpation...
What kind of innate "soft rice" constitution is this?
Seeing Jiang Ning's feigned ignorance, Lisa didn't continue.
After all, in her opinion, Yura's experience in Mondstadt was quite disheartening, and Lisa was surprised that Yura had been able to persevere for so long.
"Would you like to come over tonight? Yura is leaving Mondstadt with me later, so I was thinking of treating everyone to dinner."
Jiang Ning quickly changed the subject.
Lisa said, "Since it's a cute invitation from you, then of course I'll accept!"
"Then it's settled. After afternoon tea, come with me."
Jiang Ning said.
"Okay, then I'll leave the rest of today to you, my little cutie."
"Also, regarding Liyue... Although I know Liyue is very dissatisfied, please give Jean some time. This is my personal request, is that alright?"
Lisa straightened her expression and said.
Jiang Ning said, "It's okay... but it's best not to take too long, because it's not just Ningguang who's dissatisfied, the other Seven Stars are also somewhat unhappy, especially Keqing."
"That Yuheng Star is efficient and decisive, no wonder she's dissatisfied."
Lisa said.
"Why did the ensemble leader send you to talk to me?"
Lisa sighed sadly, "It's all because of my good friend. She's really having a hard time, so I had no choice but to ask her for help."
“But compared to the matter of the Knights…” Lisa’s eyes showed a hint of curiosity, “I’m more curious about why you and that Traveler were able to absorb and even purify Dulin’s poisonous blood.”
"Furthermore, how did you manage to acquire the authority of a demon god in such a short time? And how did Ying obtain different elemental powers by touching the Seven God Statues?"
For a female scholar, Jiang Ning's existence is like a delicious meal with perfect color, aroma, and taste, making one want to devour him.
Enjoy it.
138. Yura: Don't go.
Jiang Ning and Lisa spent a leisurely afternoon tea.
For Lisa, it was just an ordinary afternoon, but for Jiang Ning, it was a novel experience.
In the past, he was either cultivating or clearing out the remnants of demons and gods. During his few moments of rest, he would drink tea and listen to opera with Master Zhongli...
In fact, he was also following Master Zhongli's earnest teachings.
This can be considered theoretical learning.
Doing nothing, thinking nothing, just sitting there quietly, enjoying the tranquility of life, drinking tea and chatting—it really is the first time I've ever done this before.
However, what made Jiang Ning a little awkward was why Lisa, after sitting for a while, moved from the sofa opposite him to his own, and then moved closer and closer. Finally, she even leaned against his shoulder for a short rest?
When the time came, Lisa prepared to go with Qin, while Jiang Ning took the initiative to go home first.
[Host, you're such a wimp! Shouldn't you be unleashing your power at this crucial moment and making that woman kneel down and sing "Conquer"?]
"...Keep talking nonsense. I'll show you how to sing 'Conquer' when you have a real body."
Jiang Ning said.
[Okay, I have no objection. I'm very curious about what you said about the feeling of being in the clouds after having a physical body...]
The system said with a chuckle.
Why are you curious about everything?
Although it doesn't have a physical form yet, Jiang Ning can even imagine his own system's silly grin.
Such a stupid system could trick her into having a dozen babies and even help her count the money.
…………
"Everything's bought, time to cook!"
Yura bought lots of things, then put on an apron and prepared to start cooking.
I buy things directly from the Liyue merchants. When I saw it was Yura, and I knew it was a banquet for her next Geo Archon, everyone brought out their best items, and they didn't even ask for Mora.
Yura was naturally unwilling, but these merchants said that they were all merchants under the command of Lord Tianquanxing, and that Lord Tianquanxing had a very close relationship with Lord Jiangning, so they definitely couldn't accept Mora.
Otherwise, if Lord Tianquanxing found out, he would probably be unhappy.
Unfortunately, Yura could only get it for free once.
"I'm back……"
When Jiang Ning arrived home, he called out to her, and Yura felt a warmth in her heart, a sense of belonging to a home she had once felt.
Compared to the past when I would come back to a cold, empty room, this feeling of waiting for someone to come home is really nice.
"You're back? Come over here quickly and help me out, and make a few dishes while you're at it."
Yura gave the orders directly.
"Hey, you should know I'm too lazy to cook, right? And how can you order the future Geo Archon around like this? When you come to Liyue, you'll practically be my subordinate. That's called insubordination."
Jiangning's complaints.
"You said you'd be in charge of everything once we got to Liyue. What? You've changed your mind?" Yura said smugly.
"No... never mind, let's make it clear first, I'll help you out, but don't expect me to cook."
Jiang Ning sighed.
"Hurry, hurry, everyone's coming!"
Yura smiled happily.
As lunchtime approached, Yura was busy in the kitchen, while Jiang Ning finished his tasks and rested outside.
Heureya floated directly onto the sofa, holding a sunset fruit and munching on it.
"Indeed, the fruit in Mondstadt is very sweet."
Heureia sighed with emotion, feeling very happy now that she had accomplished something great.
"Actually, I'm really curious, Sister Leah, you're supposed to be a spirit, right? And my hand can pass right through you, so how did you manage to hold the Sunset Fruit and still eat it..."
Jiang Ning was very curious.
Heureia froze, realizing the problem herself: "I don't know either..."
"Shall we discuss this?"
"What are you discussing? Mind your own business when it comes to pretty girls..."
Heurelia said.
Jiang Ning said, "I've noticed that you seem a bit too eccentric lately... Ancient books clearly record that you are a gentle and benevolent deity... I always thought you had the personality of an older sister."
Moreover, compared to the Goddess of Salt, Heureia's appearance is more like that of a snow goddess in a snowstorm, pure white and flawless.
But how did someone who seemed like a mature and sophisticated woman gradually become like a little girl?
Heuria said, "Perhaps it's because I suppressed myself too much before... In front of my subjects, I must maintain a composed and mature image as a god."
