Genshin Impact: The Sage's Disciple Doesn't Want Fame

Ji Ming and Gan Yu exchanged a quick glance. The two senior and junior disciples seemed quite interested in teasing Ke Qing, but they dared not show it too obviously, otherwise the purple cat head would definitely get all puffed up.

Ji Ming smiled: "How is it?"

Ke Qing replied haughtily, "So-so."

"Then do you still want it?"

"want!"

Chapter 120: Offering His Heart to Senior Sister Gan Yu

In the dead of night, a group of suspicious figures appeared on the streets of Liyue Harbor. Although there was no rule against night markets in Liyue Harbor, their strange behavior still attracted the attention of many Thousand Rock Army patrollers.

"Hey Ninth Brother, you sneaked out with us to drink, won't the head of the Rebirth Hall be angry?"

"What does my going on with Hu Tao being out drinking have to do with her? Besides, she's probably still sleeping in my bed right now. Let's just have a good drink, guys."

Upon hearing this, the leaders of the Nine Gates all showed admiration. They never expected their sworn brother to have such ability, managing to get Hall Master Hu to sleep in their bed. He had probably already won her heart.

Zheng Laosan scratched his head: "Then why did you choose to call us brothers out in the middle of the night?"

Ji Mingyi said sternly, "It's all for the sake of having a good drink."

"Can't you drink to your heart's content during the day?"

"You can enjoy drinking even more at night."

"To be honest, Ninth Brother, you're just afraid of getting caught by that leader of the Hall of Rebirth, aren't you?"

Ji Ming said expressionlessly, "Third Brother, you can pay for the drinks yourself."

Zheng Laosan quickly smiled apologetically, "No, no, no, my money has all been spent elsewhere. Lao Jiu should treat us. Anyway, Lao Jiu's birthday hasn't passed yet."

There was nothing he could do; Hu Tao was his neighbor, and Ji Ming usually wouldn't stop her from having a few drinks.

But today is different. Ji Ming is going to drink himself into a stupor with his sworn brothers. If he goes back drunk like this, he will definitely be questioned by Haji Tao.

Of course, Hakitao would take care of him until he sobered up, and then gather all the relatives and friends he knew for a rather harsh trial.

Just thinking about this scene made Ji Ming shudder. He didn't want to see Senior Sister Gan Yu angry, after all, Hu Tao really dared to go to Yuehai Pavilion to find Miss Qilin Half-Immortal.

Liu Muzhi smiled and changed the subject: "Alright, since Lao Jiu invited us, let's have a good drink with him. It's been a long time since we last met."

Zhao Huaisheng nodded: "Of course, I didn't expect that the Ninth Prince would be chosen by the Emperor. It seems that among us, the Ninth Prince is the most promising. I guess he will soon be able to become one of the Seven Stars."

Upon hearing this, Ji Ming became displeased: "What do you mean I'm the most promising? The Nine Gates are all in this together, sharing both glory and ruin. Stop pushing me out, Second Brother."

Yang Zaifeng, who had been wary of the Qianyan Army soldiers around him, finally had a chance to interject: "Hey Ninth Brother, you're already nineteen, it's time to talk about marriage?"

Ji Ming was greatly shocked: "No, shouldn't we be discussing the reorganization of the Nine Gates tonight?"

As the eldest son of a prominent family, Chen Huaizhang smiled with a wicked grin, putting his arm around Ji Ming's shoulder and saying, "Ninth Brother, the reorganization of the Nine Gates can be put on hold for now. After all, you've been appointed by the Emperor, so we still need to consider your marriage."

Li Sui agreed, saying, "That's right, it's time for Lao Jiu to have a child. It would be best if it were a son, but a daughter is perfectly fine too. I want to be an uncle."

As expected of someone from a nursing home, while the other sworn brothers were all concerned about Ji Ming's marriage, Li Sui, the sixth brother, took the lead and started asking whether Ji Ming wanted to have children.

Ji Ming glared with dead fish eyes: "Too early, and I don't even have a wife yet, how am I supposed to have a child?"

Zheng Laosan: "That Master Hu in your bed?"

Ji Ming: "You'll pay for the drinks yourself?"

Zheng Laosan: "No, Third Brother is wrong."

Seeing that Zheng Laosan was speechless after being rebuked, Qingkui chimed in: "Laojiu, you have so many women around you, isn't there a single one you like?"

Hong Yansheng expressed his support: "Yes, you have to have a future wife you like, right?"

Ji Ming glanced sideways and said, "Seventh Brother, why don't you set an example for me first? Go to Qingce Village and marry Aunt Jin as your wife. If that happens, I'll get married right here and now."

Hong Yansheng is truly at a loss this time. To be honest, he doesn't have the courage to propose yet, since he doesn't have a stable home.

Honestly, one or two is one thing, but his maternal grandmother's eight sworn brothers have all started pressuring him to get married and have children. How can Ji Ming possibly withstand that?

Ji Ming sighed and said, "Let's go to the shop we bought first, no matter what. It's a quiet place."

They practically emptied all the general stores and small shops on the street, and almost every member of the Old Nine Gates had two cases of Mondstadt bottled liquor, planning to drink until they were completely drunk.

The shop was very clean, and it was clear that it was regularly cleaned. The group of the Nine Gates found a place to sit down and started drinking. Although the topic was still Ji Ming, it was normal at first.

But after a few rounds of drinks, the group drank more and more, and became increasingly drunk, inevitably causing their conversation to veer off course.

Liu Muzhi, his face flushed, slurred drunkenly, "Oh my god, this Mondstadt liquor is really potent... Old Ninth, listen to me, I think Xiangling is a great girl, really great. You should hurry up and marry her as your wife, you hear me?"

Zhao Huaisheng, equally drunk, retorted angrily: "What do you mean, Boss? Xiangling is a good girl, but is she as interesting as Mr. Yun Jin from Yunhan Society? Ninth Brother, don't listen to the Boss. Yun Jin is a girl who can be caring and has a lot of charm. Marrying her would guarantee a happy life."

Zheng Laosan remained silent, instead chugging down the liquor from the bottle. He was then elbowed by Zhao Huaisheng, at which point he looked at everyone with a bewildered expression.

"I don't have any particular ideas. How about we let the ninth prince marry them all?"

Everyone ignored Zheng Laosan's nonsense; this fool was even more greedy.

Putting aside whether those girls are willing or not, even if they are, what if Lao Jiu doesn't handle the emotional distribution well? Wouldn't Lao Jiu's family instantly fall into chaos?

Among the sworn brothers of the Nine Gates, Chen Huaizhang had the best education, but he was also drunk at the moment and could only express his thoughts intermittently: "Ninth Brother, Yu... Yuheng Star is good, you two are quite a good match, it's also good for your future career..."

"I don't see it that way. If Lao Jiu is spoiled by a powerful figure like Yuheng Star, can he get used to it?"

Yang Zaifeng, having come from an interrogation background, naturally had the best alcohol tolerance. At this moment, his logic was clear, and his analysis was logical and reasonable: "Hall Master Hu is quirky and clever, and he and Old Nine are a perfect match. Even if they try to interfere, they won't interfere too much."

Seeing that the fourth and fifth brothers were about to start arguing, Li Sui interjected, "I support the eldest brother. Xiangling is a good woman who knows how to manage a household. She will definitely raise her children well after they are born."

Hong Yansheng followed closely behind: "Yun Jin and Hu Tao are both good, and these two have a special relationship with Lao Jiu."

Qingkui, drinking alone, suddenly blurted out, "You guys are talking about Wendy from Mondstadt next door..."

The members of the Nine Gates: "Eighth Brother, get out of here."

After arguing for a long time without any result, the members of the Nine Gates had no choice but to look at Ji Ming, who was crawling on the ground. This little brother was already completely drunk and would probably start talking nonsense soon.

As the most clear-headed one, Yang Zaifeng asked without hesitation: "Ninth Brother, which woman or girl do you like the most?"

Ji Ming didn't reply, and lay on the ground writhing and crawling.

Chen Huaizhang was resourceful and, in his drunken state, he unleashed his extraordinary wisdom. He lay down next to Ji Ming and began calling out the names of every woman, but Ji Ming didn't respond at all.

Zheng Laosan, with his hands tucked in, suddenly blurted out, "Gan Yu?"

Ji Ming suddenly stood up, clenched his fist and placed it in front of his chest, and said in a resounding voice: "I offer my heart to Senior Sister Gan Yu!"

Then, Ji Ming fell to the ground again and continued to crawl in the shadows, muttering "Gan Yu" over and over again.

A moment of silence fell over everyone. Chen Huaizhang said quietly, "I forgot, Ninth Brother is Junior Brother Gan Yu."

"Indeed, it seems that Lao Jiu likes women who give birth naturally, but whether he can win her over depends on his abilities."

Li Sui clicked his tongue and reignited the flames of conflict: "If you can't win her over, Xiangling is a really nice girl..."

"Not as good as Wendy..."

"Eighth Brother, get out of my way!"

Chapter 121 A Belated Birthday Gift (Total 4000 words)

"My dear Minister Zhong, I've come to bother you."

It was another early morning, and Ji Ming, unusually, got up early. Then, wearing cotton slippers, he barged into the courtyard of Wangsheng Hall as if it were his own home.

Unlike Ji Ming, Zhong Li has developed a good habit of getting up early and going to bed early during his travels in the human world, and he has not abandoned it to this day.

At this moment, Zhongli was reading the latest Liyue Prefecture newspaper in the courtyard. When he heard Ji Ming's voice, he was slightly taken aback. It was hard to imagine that his crown prince would get up so early.

Five or six days have passed since Ji Ming's birthday banquet, about a week ago. During these days, the child has been sleeping until noon every day, and sometimes he doesn't even get up until lunchtime.

On the bright side, it's a little embarrassing to say that Liyue has such a lazy crown prince.

On the bright side, the Crown Prince of Liyue is still young, so what's wrong with him sleeping?

Besides, the ruling deities of the other countries each have their own abstract forms. Ji Ming just likes to sleep in late, which is no big deal.

Zhongli smiled slightly, tilting the Liyue Prefecture Gazette in his hand, and nodded in response, "The early bird catches the worm, and it is excellent that you have grasped this point."

"Actually, I was woken up by the urge to pee, and I couldn't fall back asleep for a while, so I had to come and bother you."

With his hands behind his back, looking just like an old man, Ji Ming approached Zhong Li and said, "Minister Zhong, could you tell me about Morax?"

Raising an eyebrow without making a sound, Zhongli remained composed: "Morax, I am not familiar with Him."

Zhongli, what are you still pretending for?

Ignoring Zhongli's disguise, Ji Ming continued, "I've heard that Morax is very unpredictable. Is it possible that one of the people on the street is Morax?"

"From a generally rational point of view, this is quite possible."

Ji Ming grinned mischievously: "If Morax were a voluptuous older sister, I'd want to marry her."

Zhongli remained expressionless: "Is it possible that, although Morax can transform into a woman, his psychological gender is male?"

"I don't care. Since Minister Zhong wants to recognize me as the new King of Rock, I can naturally expand my harem and take the former king into my fold."

He's hardened his fist. This kid's thinking is really unconventional. Did Barbatos teach him that?

Or did Barbatos deliberately distort the child's sexual orientation?
