Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

"Let's not talk about that. Actually, I've prepared gifts for everyone. Would you like to see them?"

Chapter 1370 You'd better go to the waiting room

Led by Xia Die, Yan Huan arrived at a study.

During their conversation, she unconsciously walked to the table displaying the gifts and smiled faintly at Yan Huan:

"Actually, the thing I asked you to come with me to pick up was a little gift I prepared for you."

"It's handmade, just like before... I wanted to leave everyone with a token of my appreciation."

"To meet the [Death] Titan, the future is uncertain... I think it would be best to seize every moment before departure and leave no regrets."

"It's like sending away someone's belongings and leaving a will." Looking at Xia Die's expression, Yan Huan said helplessly:

"If that's the case, shouldn't I leave behind some kind of inheritance or something...?"

"Why don't we build ourselves a grave first, and write 'Deduct 1 to resurrect' on it..."

"Haha, you're really intrigued, but it's quite nice."

Xia Die raised her hand to show Yan Huan the gift on the table, "Look, this is the gift I carefully prepared for you."

"I see." Yan Huan stroked her chin, staring thoughtfully at the exquisite round table.

"I didn't expect you to be a carpenter. This table looks quite old; it's got a nice patina..."

"Are you really willing to give me such an antique?"

"A table? What table..."

Xia Die was taken aback, then looked at the empty table.

"...?"

"The gift...where did it go?"

"How...how could this be..." Xia Die was at a loss for words.

"Wasn't this the table all along?" Yan Huan reached out and stroked the old, patina-covered tabletop.

"Actually, tables are pretty good too. I'm tired of smashing bricks, so I'll use tables to smash people from now on."

"No, I've known this table for a long time. I'm willing to give it to you, but not to use it to smash things..."

Xia Die shook her head and said:

"Please don't do that."

"The gift I wanted to give you... seems to have been lost..."

"Let me think, is there any way to remedy this?"

She was all alone and couldn't think of anything else she could give as a gift.

Perhaps the most unique thing about me is that [curse].

"This stone slab is also quite nice."

Yan Huan picked up a mud brick and a gold coin from the ground and asked curiously:

"Hey, is this made of real gold? It looks valuable..."

This gold coin is different from the Liheng coin; it features a somewhat abstract smiley face.

“The Zagres coin, and this stone slab…” Xia Die stared at the two items, then exclaimed in realization:

"I understand, it really was her."

She looked up and explained to Yan Huan:

"It is Lady Saifeier, whom Lady Aglaia mentioned earlier, the demigod of Zagres, the thief who left behind myths and legends throughout Onpharos."

"It's been such a long time since I've seen her; her entrance is still as awful as ever..."

"Wait a minute." Yan Huan was a little confused.

"A thief who left behind myths and legends throughout Onpharos? That means... her age is also beyond my imagination... she's even become a myth?"

In this wretched place called Onfaros, the Golden Race members are often over a thousand years old, yet they all have the faces of young people.

If you turned off the beauty filters, I wonder what they would look like at their normal age...

"Your Excellency, now is not the time to dwell on this," Xia Die said solemnly.

"Let's follow the clues on the stone slab to find Lady Saifeier."

"Oh?"

Yan Huan turned the stone slab over and found that there were indeed words on it, written in Chinese.

"..."

"It feels really incongruous to see familiar languages ​​on the stone slabs."

The stone slab is engraved with Saifei's Phantom Thief Letter.

This is what she called Xia Die—

[Your reclusive princess:]

[I was just passing by, but I discovered these exquisite gifts, personally prepared by the "Dwelling Narrowness Princess," which are truly outstanding. I love them!]

[I also liked the little gifts you prepared for the other Golden Clan members.]

[In the living room to the right of your residence, there are beautiful felted dolls, tapestries in alternating beige and light purple, and a traditional Audrey unicorn round table...]

[In the living room on the left, I noticed the jewelry and small, exquisite works of art that were intended as gifts.]

[This time, I only accepted this small gift.]

I believe it would easily fall prey to petty thieves with no taste, so I'll reluctantly keep it for you temporarily.

[Of course, I've offered a reasonable price and left a coin here.]

[If you are not satisfied with this price, you are welcome to contact me to discuss redemption.]

[However, in that case, I would naturally not be satisfied with the price of a single coin.]

[If you want to find me, come to the Marble Market. There you'll find a piece of my golden spear that I left behind. You know what to do; it will lead you to me!]

[Just in case you have any questions—I don't accept any questions.]

Please forgive this small intrusion, and accept my deepest respect.

[P.S.: Who keeps a bunch of biological specimens at home? It's kind of creepy. I suggest you put them away when you have guests.]

[P.S.: Although you spent a lot of money to buy the painting "The Burial Grounds of Audrey" in the living room, it's just a fake.]

[The original work was secretly replaced by the malicious scholars of Shingo Juten. For details, please refer to the unpublished *Memoirs of Sephalia*.]

[—From the Phantom Thief Cat.]

After placing the stone slab down, Yan Huan looked up and thought for a moment, then quickly walked towards the living room.

"Eh? Where are you going, Your Excellency?" Xia Die asked from behind.

"Looking at specimens, huh? I never knew you were such a pervert..."

In the large living room that belonged exclusively to Xia Die, there were indeed all sorts of specimens on display.

For example, the deer head on the wall is almost a standard feature of every specimen.

"Oh? You even preserved the organs in formaldehyde? You could actually sit at the same table as Ruan Mei..."

"My God, what a huge penis! Why is it displayed in such a conspicuous place?"

“Those are white radishes,” Xia Die explained, pointing to the radishes in the glass jar.

"This is the first crop I've ever grown myself, it's very memorable..."

"Is this one next to the radish too?" Yan Huan tapped the transparent glass jar near the radish.

“This is deer antler velvet,” Xia Die explained.

"So why did you put the deer's penis here? Is it for aesthetic purposes?" Yan Huan asked again.

“No, those are organs that nurture life… I just hope that I can bring life, not death…” Xia Die explained again.

"But I... I may never have such an opportunity in my life."

Xia Die looked up and tentatively said, "If you don't mind, perhaps we can..."

"What do you want to do?" Yan Huan asked, puzzled.

"Hmm... nurturing life?" Xia Die asked nervously, her pretty face slightly flushed.

“But I’m not grown up yet. Logically speaking, you should go to jail.”

Xiadie: “…”

Chapter 1371 What are you hesitating about?

In order to retrieve the gift, Xia Die and Yan Huan eventually went to the market.

In a corner of the market, the two indeed found the short spear left behind by Saifeier.

"..."

"Why do we still need to solve a mystery at this point?"

Yan Huan gazed at the shattered short spear before him, which required the power of Oronis to reassemble, and asked:

"Does this demigod Zagres really enjoy causing trouble?"

"That's just Lady Saifei's personality," Xia Die sighed.

"Perhaps we still need to put in some effort."

"Maybe not."
