The citizens watched as Wan Di and his men entered the city, and they discussed it amongst themselves.
"But...are the rumors true? That Oronis has fallen?"
"Hmph, just like the Senate said, with a formidable enemy at hand, the Golden Descendants will only incite more war, rather than consider the safety of the people..."
"That's Medemus...? The spark of conflict ultimately went to the Suspended Peak Man."
Listening to these sounds, Wan Di frowned as he walked, "Tsk...so noisy."
Bai Er glanced at the crowd:
"The atmosphere... is a little awkward."
“It’s probably because of Oronis’ departure,” Tibo said uncertainly.
"In the eyes of the world, Oronis has always been a generous Titan. It bestows miracles, allowing people to reap benefits from the past..."
Bai Er shook his head. "But they don't know that the Titan's [generosity] was not voluntary."
Yan Huan had already confirmed during his previous exploration of the temple that the so-called "miracle" was actually forcing the Titans to do specific things.
It was more of a command than a prayer.
"...In any case, the death of the Titans is a foregone conclusion, and we must return the flame of Oronis."
Bai E looked at that moment Xia.
After defeating the Fire Thief, its strange artifact was preserved by Naksha.
Although it's unknown whether the Fire Stealer possesses any resurrection magic, at least Oronis's fire has indeed been retrieved.
"Heh... I'm going to see that woman again so soon. It seems my tribulations are far from over." Upon hearing that she was going to see Aglaia, Xia immediately felt uneasy.
Bai Er comforted him:
"Teacher Xia, I was thinking...why don't you find a place to rest for a while?"
“There are already a lot of things that Aglaia needs to decide right now, and if you two meet again—to put it bluntly—it will inevitably distract her.”
The fall of the Tree Garden, the death of Oronis, the attack on Tian...
All of these things combined could be used by the Senate to create momentum and promote the incompetence of the Golden Clan.
The fact that these gossiping citizens were a bad omen when they entered the city was a sign of trouble.
"Even if I don't go looking for her, she'll come looking for me sooner or later." Xia said expressionlessly at that moment.
"From the moment I stepped into the Holy City, I was already in her prison."
"Who told me to have a Titan living in my head? Don't worry, I don't want to make things difficult for myself."
After saying that, Xia left on her own.
He is not under the command of anyone here.
“…” Dan Heng frowned slightly as he watched Xia’s retreating figure.
At such times, the lingering contradictions within humanity are extremely fatal.
Chapter 1304 I'm Not That Simple
"Hey, kid, you're back?!"
The sprightly old man, sitting in a recliner made of welded scrap metal, was surprised to see Yan Huan being carried over in a wheelchair.
"What happened to your leg? Did you get it broken for peeping at a girl taking a shower?!"
"You're the one who got a discount, your whole family got a discount." Yan Huan was speechless.
Immediately, the dark gold eyes beneath the long black hair glowed slightly, and she began to carefully examine the old man.
This guy... is the grandfather of the previous client, 'Plastic Bag'.
"There's nothing wrong with that."
Yan Huan withdrew her gaze and looked at the blade behind her.
"Uncle, are you blind? This is clearly a human being, okay?"
Even if he had taken special pills, Bu Lilang, disguised as a fox, could easily see through him, which clearly showed that Grandpa was a normal human.
In this place littered with garbage and waste, people are the cheapest commodity.
For a pittance, they'll do anything for you, running ten kilometers for a single steamed bun...
"Take a closer look."
With his hands clasped behind his back, he said in a deep voice:
"Are the bones, blood, heart... these internal parts you see really the same as those of a normal person?"
"?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Huan narrowed her eyes again, carefully observing her grandfather's inner thoughts.
"Hey, what are you doing?!"
Seeing Yan Huan staring at him lecherously, Grandpa quickly got up from the rocking chair, not forgetting to pull up his pants and quickly touch his buttocks to make sure he wasn't exposed.
“Young man, although I’m not a proper man, I absolutely cannot be a man… mainly because I really can’t handle this old man.”
"Um... if you really want to, how about a few days later? My fertile period is approaching..."
March 7th stared wide-eyed at her pinkish-blue eyes:
"Grandpa! You're a grown man, what kind of dangerous period do you have!"
"He really does have it!" Yan Huan frowned.
"Holy crap, upon closer inspection, they really are different from normal humans..."
"What's going on? Even the chromosomes seem a bit off, and the color of the blood looks like it's been dyed."
"Real blood doesn't look that shiny, sir. What race are you?"
"Huh~?" The old man stuck out his ears and mumbled in confusion:
"Speak louder, I can't hear you! You love me? This...this isn't quite right!"
"..."
"Actually... it's not impossible." The old man twisted his body awkwardly, his pretty face slightly flushed.
"..."
"I'm getting old, and I've seen plenty of young girls... but I've never been with a young man like you before."
"?" March 7 and Blade frowned at the same time.
"Although... I don't have much pension, I can still afford the bride price."
Under the varied gazes of the three men, the old man slowly took out a fresh meat bun.
"Hehe, this is my treasure... To be honest, young man, I actually quite like you. If you're willing to come with me, I'll give you this..."
"Go find whoever you want." Yan Huan rolled her eyes.
"If I really want to eat steamed buns, I'll go somewhere else to buy them, it's better than eating yours."
In this run-down place, anything you eat is bound to cause illness, let alone these suspicious buns that this old geezer brought out.
The things Sambo brought out were probably a hundred times more reliable than his.
"How can you talk like that? Young man, do you really think I'd even look at you?"
Seeing that Yan Huan remained unmoved, the old man suddenly became furious, slammed the steamed bun on the ground, and angrily shouted:
"I want to use you so you can go find my daughter!"
"You're so young, yet you're already getting too big for your britches..."
Seeing Yan Huan's bewildered expression, the old man became even more disdainful.
"Hmph, I didn't expect that even selling my beauty wouldn't sway you. It seems I'll have to find another way."
"Why would you think of selling your good looks?" Yan Huan's eyes widened. "Do you think you're that handsome?"
"Pah, short-sighted! I knew you had no sense of propriety!" The old man stared at Yan Huan, picked up his pipe, and tapped it on the dark wooden table beside him.
"Back in my youth, I was a well-known local gentry!"
"So many beautiful girls would love to be your grandmother, but none of them have the good fortune to be one."
"I never thought that such a perfect body would be right in front of you today, yet you don't know how to cherish it!"
“No, you could have easily used other people’s good looks to seduce me.” Yan Huan raised her hand.
"?" March 7th narrowed his eyes and looked at Yan Huan with disdain.
"So you've finally become interested in humans?"
"I'm not interested, I was just reminding you," Yan Huan explained.
"I'm getting tired of seeing you guys every day."
"Especially you, San Mouqi, you even have to call me to bring you toilet paper when you run out..."
"Pah! What aesthetic fatigue? That's just a complete fabrication!" March 7th raised his chin and snorted coldly.
"I think you just don't know how beautiful I really am."
"Ha, that's hilarious... When everyone is beautiful, one individual no longer stands out."
Seeing Yan Huan and March 7th arguing, Ren angrily said:
How old are you?
"After seeing the structure of that person's body, you should understand that there is no one on this planet worth saving."
"What's wrong with the body's structure?" Yan Huan turned around and retorted:
"So what if your internal organs are a bit more refined than an ordinary person's? You're still a demon in disguise."
"..." Blade remained expressionless.
