Walnut used me to boost her sales performance.

After searching for several days without success, I was just about to try my luck at the shrine the next day when I unexpectedly ran into the shrine's acting chief priest.

Although it's a cat, it can communicate by talking.

"Meow~ I'm just the acting head priest. The real head priest is Hibiki, but I don't know where she went..."

At this point, Qinzi's tail drooped, its ears drooped, and its expression was visibly downcast.

Walnut took out a small dried fish. "Have a small dried fish and tell us in detail. Maybe we can help."

"really?"

The girl stared at Hu Tao with wide, hopeful eyes.

*?((???))?*

Hu Tao felt charmed by it.

Who can resist an adorable kitten?

"Uh-huh!"

Hu Tao learned a little about the story of this dormitory.

Asagi Shrine is the only shrine on Seirai Island. The shrine maidens here, like those at Narukami Shrine, serve their god, Raiden-sō, in the shrine.

However, due to the remoteness of Qinglai Island, there is only one shrine maiden in the shrine, named A-Xiang.

There are many cats in Asagi Shrine. They have always lived in the shrine and lived with Hibiki.

It was very sleepy, so Ah Xiang named it Qinzi.

Then one day, Ah Xiang disappeared, and a thunderstorm submerged the entire Qinglai Island, leaving only the shrine as a pure land where the blue sky could still be seen.

It waited and waited at the shrine, for who knows how long, and from having only a little intelligence, it has become a cat that can talk to people and understand many things.

No longer lazy and prone to sleeping, it appointed itself as the acting priest and took care of the shrine's cats.

It would occasionally come out to search when the thunderstorms weren't so intense, hoping to find Ah Xiang.

Then I smelled the aroma of fish and found their place.

"He's a bit like Wu Baizang..." Jiang Bai remarked.

Five hundred treasures await the Fox Palace, and the sleeping quarters await its peeping.

The cat has no concept of time, but it remembers that there was a thunderstorm on the island when Ah Xiang left.

The thunderstorm on Qinglai Island occurred about four or five hundred years ago, meaning it had been waiting for at least four hundred years.

After so much time, Ah Xiang must have passed away long ago.

Chapter 544 Let me take you on a journey to experience flying on a sword.

Jiang Bai didn't point out this sad fact, but instead put a large piece of fish on its plate.

"It's ready, come and have a taste."

Qinzi sat upright on the table and took a bite with great elegance.

"Meow! So delicious! I haven't had such delicious fish in so long since Ah Xiang left!"

"Eat more if you like it." Jiang Bai's eyes were full of affection.

After taking a few bites, Qinzi resisted the urge to continue eating and stopped.

"May I take some back for the other cats to try?"

There are other cats at the shrine, and she wanted them to try the delicious fish as well.

"No problem, I've cooked a lot of dishes, I can give you the whole thing without any problem."

"You guys are so kind."

The girl was very happy, but then she looked at the big fish and became a little worried.

How is she going to take it back?

"If you're not in a hurry, we'll take it back for you after we finish eating."

According to the map, Asahi Shrine should be on another island, but it's not hard to get there quickly.

"Yes, yes, I'll be waiting for you."

The group quickly finished their lunch, and Jiang Bai conjured a huge broadsword of rock element.

"Come up here and let me show you my new mode of transportation."

Ichidou, holding a plate of fish, stood on the broadsword, puzzled.

"Transportation? How is this supposed to get around? Can it even fly?"

Congratulations, you guessed right!

This is Jiang Bai's latest research on transportation.

Since he can manipulate wind to make himself fly, he can also make other things fly.

As long as you maintain a good balance and control the strength of the wind element, flying on a sword is not a dream.

The reason for choosing a sword is because of the Sword Master.

Jiang Bai did what he couldn't do before.

Hu Tao trusted Jiang Bai quite a lot and went up to him without saying a word.

Once Lin Zi jumped up, Jiang Bai sat at the tip of the sword and used his elemental power to make the stone sword float.

"Sit tight, the bus is about to depart!"

The flying sword soared into the air, succeeding on the first try.

"Oh my! This is the first time I've ever flown!"

Qinzi curiously stretched his head and looked down.

The outline of the islands below is clearly visible.

If it weren't for Qinglai Island, this would definitely have been a very pleasant experience.

However, this is on Qinglai Island, where thunderstorms are frequent.

As if enraged by the tiny flying sword soaring into the sky, lightning relentlessly poured down, aimed directly at the stone sword.

"careful!"

Qinzi's pupils contracted, and his hair stood on end; his biological instincts instilled in him a natural fear of thunder.

Walnut pulled it into her arms and stared intently at the tilting lightning.

The thunder rumbled, as if the might of heaven was overwhelming, and the lightning bolts as thick as buckets instilled fear in people from the bottom of their hearts.

This is the resentment of the Thunderbird, the retribution for the death of the Demon God.

"Hold on tight!"

Jiang Bai looked serious.

Even with his shield, he dared not underestimate this terrifying thunderstorm.

The handrails formed on the stone sword, and the accompanying stone armor firmly secured them to the sword.

The flying sword, like a streak of light, nimbly weaved through the thunderstorm, dodging bolts of lightning.

Yidou felt his stomach churning, and he was just one step away from throwing up the night he had just eaten.

He opened his mouth to speak, but a gust of wind rushed into his mouth, blowing his cheeks open like balloons, and even blowing back the vomit that was about to rise into his throat.

"Slow down...slow down! Slow down!"

"If you're too slow, you'll be struck by lightning!" Jiang Bai focused on manipulating the flying sword without looking back.

The thunderstorms on Qinglai Island, like those on Bayun Island, seem to follow people in the air.

It was as if the sky was their territory, and flying into the sky was an offense against the thunder.

As a result, the birds on the island fly very low.

As they flew towards the vicinity of Asanai Shrine, the thunderstorm gradually subsided, and by the time they arrived at the shrine, the thunderstorm had completely disappeared.

Yi Dou climbed down from the stone sword, handed the plate to Jiang Bai, and leaned against the tree trunk, vomiting violently.

Jiang Bai's flying sword was like riding a roller coaster, making for a terrible riding experience.

"The flying sword's design is too uncomfortable; it's easy to fall off. Next time, let's try a spaceship..." Jiang Bai reviewed the flight, identified shortcomings, and prepared to improve it next time.

Dormitory was also dizzy and disoriented. It took her a while to regain her balance after getting out of bed and swaying around.

Walnut, on the other hand, was clearly very excited and seemed perfectly fine.

"So exciting! So much fun!"

"Meow meow meow~"

When they saw that the shrine had returned with a strange human, most of the cats in the shrine gathered around.

"Meow, I brought you some delicious fish, come and try it."

The child used both paws to lift the lid, though the presentation was ruined in the process.

But the taste is still there, and the aroma is still there.

Several kittens meowed and gathered around the plate, happily beginning to enjoy their meal.

Qinzi stood gracefully to the side, watching the little ones feast with a kind gaze.

"Do you want to rest? There are rooms available at the shrine. I'll take you there."

Jiang Bai looked at Yi Dou, who was vomiting so hard he was dizzy and disoriented.

He waved his hand, indicating that Jiang Bai and the others didn't need to worry about him.

Jiang Bai and Hu Tao went to see the rooms and also visited the shrine.

The shrine's buildings have been standing for five hundred years, and theoretically, without any maintenance, they would soon decay.

However, there are cats here. The cats are like the shrine maidens, carefully maintaining the shrine and waiting for their priest to return.

It's hard to imagine how much effort the cats have put into maintaining this shrine. Jiang Bai walked along and didn't see a single collapsed building; the roofs were all intact.

Although there are some weeds in the courtyard, they are not growing too vigorously.

The dog wagged its tail and led the two to their room to rest.

It pushed open the door with its tail, and a large room appeared before the two of them.

This is a very large room, but much of the furniture in the room is obviously unusable.

The cats obviously didn't have the ability to repair the furniture, so they just left it there.

"This is a room in the shrine where guests stay. I cleaned it a few days ago, so it's very clean and you can stay here without worry."

The shrine proudly raised its chin; it was working very hard to keep the shrine clean and tidy.

"Do you know magic, Dormitory?" Hu Tao asked, curious about how she cleaned the room.

The student shook his head.

"So how did you clean it?"

It's hard to imagine how a cat could clean.

The dog gripped the broom placed beside it with its two front paws and walked on its two hind legs, mimicking human postures, while using its front paws to control the broom and sweep the floor.

Jiang Bai couldn't resist taking out his camera and snapping a picture of the cat sweeping the floor.

Without evidence, no one would believe such a scene if it were told.

After finishing her demonstration, the girl put the broom back in its place, yawned sleepily, and said, "I need to rest too, goodnight meow~"

"Good night."

Chapter 545 All these years must have been tough.

"It seems like this shrine only has cats."
