Do you think this world is serious?

Cecilia quickly edited the message and sent it to Maria and Angelia respectively.

Then, she looked at Chen Xiuming and asked curiously, "I forgot to ask you yesterday, what kind of improvement did Wendy bring you? Was it like me, Maria, and Angelia, which provided improvements in physical fitness and Honkai energy?"

"Wendy didn't improve my physical constitution, she only improved my Honkai energy, and..."

Chen Xiuming said in a low voice, "When Wendy first experienced human affairs, I obtained the Lawyer powers that Wendy possessed."

"Hmm? Does that mean... Wendy's power has been taken away by you?"

"No, Wendy's power hasn't disappeared."

Chen Xiuming shook his head slightly, as if explaining, or perhaps guessing, and continued, "It should be because I have Sirin's Herrscher core within me, and Wendy is the Herrscher of Wind, so I obtained Wendy's Herrscher powers."

Chen Xiuming clearly sensed that although he had obtained Wendy's Herrscher powers through sexual intercourse, those Herrscher powers were attached to Sirin's Herrscher core, not to him personally.

In other words, if Chen Xiuming hadn't refined the world bubble where Sirin was, the effect of his sexual encounter with Wendy might have been simply an increase in Honkai energy.

Moreover, unlike Wendy, a "first-generation Herrscher," Chen Xiuming cannot use Herrscher powers as freely and effortlessly as Wendy.

Without the corresponding knowledge, one can only do simple things like conjuring gales and wind blades, and cannot tear the sky and earth apart like Wendy.

There's no problem using Sirin's Herrscher powers, since it uses Sirin's Herrscher core as a vessel to invert the entire world into her body.

The thought that he not only needed to study the forging methods of various tools, but also had to learn about Wendy's Herrscher powers made Chen Xiuming feel that the future was bleak.

Fortunately, Wendy's Herrscher power is related to "wind" rather than creating an ideal fluid.

Chapter 254 Flora makes a request for "in-depth communication".

That evening.

Cecilia drove her car into the Forbidden City, covered in dust, and then gently woke the sleeping crowd.

"Ugh... Sleeping in the car is really uncomfortable."

Chen Xiuming rubbed his lower back, feeling stiffness and soreness.

He had worked hard all night and then drove for a whole morning and half an afternoon. Even though he was quite energetic, he couldn't help but feel exhausted.

Hearing Chen Xiuming's complaint, Einmed yawned and gently rubbed Chen Xiuming's waist to relieve his stiffness and soreness.

"Lord Chen Xiuming, how about I help you with the movements tonight?"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Chen Xiuming had just woken up and was still groggy, so he didn't immediately understand what Aynmed meant.

Einmed tiptoed and whispered in Chen Xiuming's ear, her breath sweet as orchids: "Your back is aching, so how about I help you move around from behind tonight?"

"Forehead……"

Perhaps it was the warm breath lingering in his ear, or perhaps it was Aynmed's astonishing words, that instantly cleared Chen Xiuming's drowsy mind.

"No, no need. I should be fine after resting for a while."

"But……"

Einmed then reminded them, "Tonight, it's not just us, it's also Delta, Maria, and Angelia."

"..."

Chen Xiuming fell silent. He had indeed forgotten that Delta, Maria, and Angelia also needed to be "fed".

"Well, thank you for your help then."

This was the first time Chen Xiuming had ever experienced having someone help push him from behind.

Aynmed smiled and nodded, then continued to massage Chen Xiuming's waist.

Under the moonlight, Chuyong yawned, listlessly leaning against Chen Xiuming, as if half-asleep, muttering incoherently in her sleep.

Wendy simply used her Herrscher powers, drooping her head as she floated behind the group.

Zofia and the Spring Spirit were in good condition and quickly shook off their drowsiness.

"The last time I came to Huangjin City was the last time."

The Spring Spirit stretched and uttered a meaningless, nonsensical remark.

"Let's go."

Cecilia closed the car door tightly, greeted everyone with a slight smile, and at the same time reached out to grab Wendy, who was floating in the air.

Immediately, just like leading a group of children across the street, she walked in front to lead the way, followed by six "children".

……

Welcome back, everyone.

As if she knew when Chen Xiuming and his group would arrive, Prime Minister Rita appeared before them immediately.

"Huh? Rita, didn't you and Stargazer rest?"

"Lord Guanxing has already rested and asked me to wait here for your return."

Prime Minister Rita bowed slightly, then looked at the Spring Spirit who was looking around.

"Lord of the Spring, it's been a long time."

"Just call me A-Quan. 'Lord Spring Spirit' sounds too strange."

"Yes, Lord A-Quan."

Prime Minister Rita nodded, but did not fully heed the Spring Spirit's advice.

The spirit of the spring hesitated, but ultimately gave up the idea of ​​persuading Prime Minister Rita to change her mind.

"Would you like me to prepare a dinner for you all?"

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Rita."

"That's my job."

Prime Minister Rita smiled gently, then turned and led Chen Xiuming and the others toward the "dining hall" of the Forbidden City, and took the initiative to introduce what had happened that day.

Although Flora's power had been limited by Delta, Delta still seemed a little uneasy, so she took Flora with her on her way home, not letting her out of her sight.

As for Maria, Angelia, Vita, Levi, and Incresin, they followed closely behind and left the Forbidden City, returning to the previous residence of Chen Xiuming and the others, without staying overnight in the Forbidden City.

Since Chen Xiuming and his entourage were quite large, and it was already late, Prime Minister Rita did not cook herself, but instead ordered some food online and went to pick it up herself.

After quickly finishing their meal, Chen Xiuming and the others left the Forbidden City and returned to their residences, while the Spring Spirit stayed in the Forbidden City temporarily.

……

Chen Xiuming's home.

"Brother-in-law! You're back!"

As soon as I opened the door, a beautiful figure, accompanied by a faint fragrance, wafted towards me.

Unfortunately, it wasn't Chen Xiuming who opened the door, but Cecilia.

"Angelia, don't block the doorway."

Cecilia sighed and ruffled Angelia's hair, then shoved her into the entryway.

Although Angelia was somewhat disappointed that she couldn't run into Chen Xiuming's arms, Cecilia's rubbing soothed that disappointment and brought a joyful smile to her face.

The group following Cecilia entered the house one after another, and then saw Flora sitting quietly on the sofa.

At the same time, Flora also saw Chen Xiuming and the others.

With just one glance, she locked her gaze on Chen Xiuming, who was standing among the girls.

“Mr. Chen Xiuming, it’s nice to meet you—I am Flora, the former Prime Minister of Jormungandr.”

Jormungandr will soon be merged into the Kingdom of Hoenn and become history. Therefore, Flora introduces herself as "former prime minister of Jormungandr" rather than "former prime minister of Jormungandr".

"Hello."

Chen Xiuming nodded slightly in response, "I already know about what happened to you."

Seeing that Chen Xiuming had important matters to attend to, Yuexia Chuyong and Wendy did not linger with him. Instead, they staggered towards the bathroom, intending to take a shower and return to their room to wait for Chen Xiuming to finish his work.

Cecilia took Chen Xiuming's arm and sat with him on the sofa on the other side of Flora's.

Flora sat up straight, staring intently at Chen Xiuming, waiting for him to continue.

"I will help you beat your sister."

Without wasting any words, Chen Xiuming gave Flora a direct and affirmative answer.

Upon hearing this, Flora immediately broke into a joyful smile, but her gaze remained fixed intently on Chen Xiuming.

After receiving Chen Xiuming's affirmative reply, Flora inevitably felt a surge of greed—

If I can completely bind myself to Chen Xiuming, then I can guarantee that I can consistently defeat Claire every time.

"Mr. Chen Xiuming, may I have you?"

"...Get me?"

Chen Xiuming was completely baffled. "What does that mean?"

"In layman's terms, it means developing a relationship that goes beyond 'friendship'."

Flora showed no embarrassment and continued earnestly, "I want to be your—partner!"

Chen Xiuming: ?

This is not just a simple giveaway, it's a complete "free gift".

Chen Xiuming couldn't understand Flora's thoughts and thought process, but he could tell that Flora was serious.

He subconsciously looked at Cecilia beside him, only to see that Cecilia was also somewhat surprised.

A few seconds later, Cecilia snapped out of her shock and lowered her voice.

"Honey, I think it's okay."

"...Isn't this too fast?"

"It is indeed a bit fast, but feelings can be cultivated later—she is the vizier of Jormungandr, and should be good at management."
