I'm a male god in Liyue

Page 778

Xia Le thought for a moment, then tilted her head and gently rubbed her face against Xia Zhi's body.

Great, now my scent is all that's left on my older brother.

A satisfied look appeared on Xia Le's face.

After having breakfast at the restaurant, Noelle returned to the Knights of Favonius.

Since no one had any competitions to participate in today, everyone just wandered around and joined in the fun of the Feng Hua Festival.

Charlotte took out her new camera and said she was going to take the best photos. The little girls were very interested and followed Charlotte along.

Xia Le didn't go; she stayed by Xia Zhi's side the whole time.

Today is her second day in the city. She is still very curious about the toys and sundries on the street stalls. She stops every now and then, tugs at Xia Zhi's sleeve, and says in a coquettish tone that she wants to buy something.

Xia Zhi simply gave her some Mora and let her buy whatever she liked, allowing her to indulge in a shopping spree.

In the evening, it was time for the familiar massage session again.

"Big brother, I want to try an aromatherapy massage!"

"Xia Ci told you that again, didn't she?"

"Uh-huh."

"I see."

"Does this mean I have to take my clothes off?"

"Yes, but you don't need to take them all off."

Xia Le looked completely satisfied, having experienced a completely new sense of pleasure.

It's better to be human!

You can eat delicious food, drink delicious drinks, listen to great music, buy whatever you want, and even sleep with your older brother at night...

What fun is there in being a dragon?

After taking a bath, Xia Zhi came out of the Dust Song Pot and did not go straight back to his room, but walked towards the outside of the West Wind Cathedral.

Rosalia was taking a walk in the square, holding the white cat.

These days, she's gotten to know the white cat better.

She now prefers being with her cats to lying on the rooftop alone, lost in thought.

Rosalia, who was playing with the cat, suddenly noticed a familiar figure walking by in the distance.

She looked up and saw that it was the Liyue man who was temporarily staying at the Favonius Church.

Why is he out so late?

Every time I see him, he seems to be with them. Why is he alone today?

Where is he going?

Rosalia stroked the cat in her arms, pondered for a few seconds, and then quietly followed.

She always felt that this man was very mysterious.

We want to find out his true purpose in coming to Mondstadt.

This is a pretty good opportunity right now.

The white cat in her arms raised its head and looked quietly at Rosalia with its dark blue eyes.

From its current perspective, all it can see is a vast expanse of white and enormous scenery.

Xia Zhi arrived at the intersection not far from the Knights of the West.

This is the place where he made his appointment with Noelle yesterday morning.

Noelle was already standing there quietly waiting.

Noelle's eyes lit up with joy when she saw Xia Zhi arrive as promised.

"Mr. Xia!"

"Wait a long time?"

"No, no! I just finished my duties with the Knights!"

"Were you always busy until this time of day before?"

"Well, after washing the dishes in the restaurant, then wiping the tables, and then mopping and sweeping the hallway, that's about it."

"Then you must have had a tough time."

"But this level is far inferior to that of the Knights."

Noelle shook her head and looked at Xia Zhi with hopeful eyes.

"Mr. Xia, um..."

"Don't worry, I've got it ready, but there are too many people here. Let's find a quiet place first."

“You can go to the open space behind the Knights’ headquarters. It’s quiet there and there’s no one around. I used to go there at night to practice my swordsmanship by myself.”

"Then go there."

"Alright, Mr. Xia, please follow me!"

Noel led Xia Zhi toward the Knights of Favonius.

Not far away, Rosalia frowned, but still chose to follow.

The open space Noelle mentioned was quite large, and there were many wooden dummies with many sword cuts on their bodies.

Xia Zhi looked up and, through his glasses, could see the window of Commander Qin's office.

The lights were still on there.

This means that Qin is still working overtime in the office.

In the darkness, a glittering light appeared on a leaf outside the office window—it was the firefly he had released earlier.

Noel asked in a low voice, "Mr. Xia, is this alright?"

Xia Zhi nodded and said, "Okay."

He waved slightly.

Noelle felt the wind in the air suddenly become still.

No, it's not just the wind that has become quiet.

Noelle looked at it.

Even the sounds coming from the distant streets had disappeared.

The whole world seemed to fall silent, with only her own breathing and heartbeat clearly visible.

"Mr. Xia, what is this?"

"I have temporarily frozen time here."

"Time stopped?!"

"Well, because there's a kitten following us the whole time, and it would be hard to explain if she saw us doing this."

"kitten……"

Noelle looked behind her but didn't see any kittens.

All I could see were the trees, which looked like statues, with all their branches and leaves completely still.

Time stands still.

This...this kind of power...even the wind god Barbatos couldn't do it, right?

A small round stick appeared in Xia Zhi's hand.

Noelle couldn't help but look at it.

Xia Zhi said, "This is the transformation item I prepared for you."

He handed the round stick to Noelle.

Noel carefully held it in her hand, feeling the cold, hard texture of the metal, and asked somewhat blankly, "Mr. Xia, what should I do?"

"This is actually a sword hilt. You can hold it with both hands just like you would a greatsword."

"I've got it."

"Do you feel it?"

"Hey?"

"Don't you feel anything?"

"It seems...there isn't..."
