Legend of the Dragon King: I am Genshin Impact

Chapter 260: Xiaogong's favorability is achieved!

"By the way, it looks like you got ripped off by them." Xiao Gong circled Feng Zixi twice. "But it's a good thing you weren't hurt, and it's a good thing you gave them the money. If you hadn't given them the money, the Tianling army would have come and beaten you up and taken all the money you had on you."

Feng Zixi never expected that Inazuma would become so corrupt. The Tenryo magistrate is practically the only one in power. In Inazuma, whatever they say goes.

"Doesn't General Thunder care about such matters?"

"The General?" Yoomiya pursed her lips, her expression somewhat forlorn. "I don't know what the General is thinking, but the Tenryo Magistrates generally don't directly seize the locals of Inazuma. Perhaps, to the General... outsiders would disrupt Inazuma's eternity..."

"Furthermore, with the Heavenly Territory Magistrate and the Surveying Magistrate colluding together, the Shaman Magistrate doesn't even have the right to speak. Perhaps, even the Shogun doesn't know that Inazuma Castle is in this state now. After all... for us subjects, it's practically impossible to even see the Shogun..."

"Enough of that, look, we're here! That's our Naganohara Fireworks Shop over there!" Yoomiya waved to the old man standing at the door and shouted, "Dad, I brought a friend home!"

Ryunosuke Nagano frowned. "What did you say?"

Xiao Gong, holding Feng Zixi's hand, had already walked to the old man's side. Xiao Gong whispered in the old man's ear, "Dad, I said... I brought some friends over to play!"

"Oh, oh, oh." Nagano Ryunosuke nodded as if he understood, even though he still hadn't heard clearly. But in order not to bother the other person to repeat it, he pretended to understand.

"Dad's getting old, and his hearing isn't what it used to be," Xiao Gong said to Feng Zixi. "But he's still a very hospitable man! Come on, follow me, I'll prepare a room for you..."

Before Feng Zixi could even speak to the old man she didn't know how to address, she was pulled away by Xiaogong. This energetic girl always brought a pleasant feeling to people!

The Naganohara Fireworks Shop isn't very big; there are only three bedrooms. The decor is standard Japanese style—not luxurious, but cozy enough.

"This is it! It's very simple, please don't mind it."

Feng Zixi laughed and said, "How could I complain! This bedroom looks quite new; was it just renovated?"

Xiao Gong's expression changed. After hesitating for a moment, he pulled Feng Zixi closer and whispered in her ear, his words carrying a gentle breeze that brushed against Feng Zixi's earlobe, causing her ears to turn red for the first time ever...

"This room was originally used to hide some important people." Yomiya said, sitting on the tatami. "There are too many pitiful people in Inazuma. They have done nothing wrong, but they are imprisoned. Our Naganohara Fireworks Shop is a place to temporarily take them in."

[Ding! Your affinity with the target character, Xiaogong, has reached the required level. You have been granted one regular sign-in opportunity!]

Huh! Feng Zixi was stunned. This energetic girl was so unguarded? She'd only known her for less than an hour and she already considered her a friend?

"By the way, young man... oh wait, Zixi, what do you think of Inazuma's isolationist edict and the eye-hunting edict?"

"The isolationist order, in the words of the Wind God... is to imprison human freedom. The Eye Hunting Order is even more unacceptable; it even deprives humans of their desires. What is the meaning of human life then?" Although Feng Zixi's tone was calm, Xiaogong always felt that Feng Zixi radiated a divine light, giving people a feeling of wanting to worship her...

"Hey, why are you looking at me like that? I get shy." Feng Zixi instantly lost her composure.

Xiaogong chuckled. "What? I originally thought you were a super great sage."

"Hey, hey, aren't I?" Feng Zixi blinked. "Look into my eyes, aren't they full of wisdom?"

Xiao Gong glanced at Feng Zixi's eyes, eyes that seemed to contain the stars of the heavens, and almost made Xiao Gong fall for them.

"Ahem." Xiaogong coughed deliberately to divert attention, turning her slightly flushed face away. "What do you mean by 'full of wisdom'? It's so stupid!"

Xiaogong fled in disarray, the air still thick with the girl's shyness.

[Check-in successful: Congratulations, host, you have received the blessing of fireworks!]

[Protection from Fireworks: Immune to fire damage, including burns, high temperatures, and explosions!]

Feng Zixi leaned back, lazily lying on the tatami. Her biggest gain today was meeting that rascal fox and the energetic Xiaogong.

For some reason, although the scumbag fox was more charming than Xiaogong, it was Xiaogong's innocent nature that stirred Feng Zixi's heart more. In other words… he wanted a pure, innocent romance with Xiaogong, but with the scumbag fox… please hurry up and get to the wedding night…

Hehe...

……

The night in Inazuma is very quiet; apart from the faint croaking of frogs, there is not a sound of human habitation. If one had to find a place that still has a sense of life at night, it would be Narukami Taisha Shrine.

Enveloped in the light of the Divine Cherry Tree, even at night, there is a unique vitality.

Dawn...

The priestess of the shrine, Yae no Miko, stood lazily stretching beneath the sacred cherry blossom tree, her shrine maiden robes slipping down her shoulders to reveal a glimpse of her delicate shoulder. Unfortunately, no one witnessed this alluring scene…

"Master Yae, the child Hayaru is back." Kano Nana led the tiny Hayaru to Yae no Miko.

Zayu tugged at Kano Nana's shrine maiden outfit, trying to hide her small body behind Kano Nana as much as possible. At this moment, she felt that being short had its advantages, at least she could completely hide herself.

Although Yae no Miko appears to be very intelligent and gentle, Yoru's sixth sense tells her that the further away from this beauty the better, otherwise there might be "danger"! Although she is also afraid of the shrine maiden, compared to the priestess, the shrine maiden is simply an angel!

"Oh?" Yae no Miko turned around in surprise and glanced at Hayato. "Little one, when it comes to serious matters, you don't seem like the kind of child who would slack off..."

Zaoyou poked her little head out, "Zaoyou didn't slack off! It's just... it's just... Zaoyou felt that if I stayed with that person, I would definitely be in danger, so... I ran away."

"Oh?" Yae no Miko became interested. If we're talking about danger, Hayako, who has obtained the Eye of God, is definitely not less dangerous than an ordinary person!

That's right, yesterday, Yae no Miko's task for Hayato was to monitor the shop owner who was cursed by Feng Zixi. For Hayato to sense danger and run away, something must have really happened…

"Tell me your reason, little one. If it doesn't work, you're staying by my side all day."

"Ugh... How scary..." Zaoyou trembled. "It's really dangerous because... because, Zaoyou has never seen such an unlucky person before. It feels like... if you stay near him, bad luck will just keep coming..."
