I'm a male god in Liyue

"It's a deal! Hehe!"

"I just can't do anything with you. I'll have to go to the Adventurers' Guild to take on quests again..."

"Don't worry, traveler, I'll help you too!"

As Cole watched Ying and Paimon laughing and joking, a hint of envy flashed in his eyes.

She used to wander alone. If she had had a companion like Paimon by her side back then, even if those days were tough, she would definitely be much happier.

but……

Ke Lai lowered his head, looked at the empty instant noodle paper buckets in his hand, and fell silent again.

Paimon can eat so much...

At that time, I even ate fireflies and almost starved to death. Even though she was my companion, it seemed that I couldn't possibly keep her alive.

Cole threw away the trash and used the remaining hot water to make tea for Ying and Paimon.

It's not a local tea from Huacheng Guo, but a precious "Silver Thread Dew".

Ying took a sip and felt her thoughts and memories become exceptionally clear. Her expression immediately changed: "This tea... is amazing..."

Paimon exclaimed in surprise, "It tastes even better than the tea at Qiaoying Manor."

Ke Lai smiled and said softly, "This was also a gift from Mr. Xia. I don't have anything else of value here, so I can only use this to entertain you two."

Ying thanked her earnestly, saying, "Ke Lai, you're too kind."

Paimon nodded and said, "Yes, if it weren't for the Tinari taking us in, the travelers would still be lying in the woods."

After chatting briefly and finishing their tea, Cole returned to his room, equipped himself with some of the ranger's usual gear, and prepared to head out.

I ran into Ying and Paimon on the road.

Paimon asked, "Coley, what's going on?"

"I'm going on patrol," Cole said softly.

Ying was slightly taken aback: "Patrol the forest?"

"It's about patrolling the nearby forests, clearing out wild beasts and monsters near the villages, and seeing if there are any travelers on the road who need help," Cole said.

Paimon nodded: "I see. Tinari met us while he was on patrol, right?"

Cole nodded: "Yes."

Ying thought for a moment and said, "Can we come along?"

Cole hesitated slightly: "Together...your body..."

Ying said earnestly, "I feel much better, and I also want to see if I will faint again now when I smell the plants in the rainforest."

Cole thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "Okay."

Paimon said excitedly, "Then let's set off now."

Cole looked at them and said, "You can go back and prepare."

"No need, we are ready at any time!"

"I need to go find my master first and get today's forest patrol route map."

"go together!"

Upon arriving at the treehouse in Tinari, Cole knocked on the door and explained his purpose.

Tinari opened the door, handed over a hand-drawn map, glanced at Ying and Paimon beside him, and asked with some surprise, "You two are going too?"

Ying nodded: "Yes! Since we've stayed here, we'd like to help!"

Tina frowned slightly: "Your idea is good, but today's journey is long, and there's a possibility that those things might appear along this route..."

Ke Lai said earnestly, "Don't worry, Master, I will take good care of them."

Tina hesitated for a moment, then shook her head: "In that case, let Kolai take you to inspect the southern part of Huacheng today. As for that route, it's better if I inspect it myself. If you are confident in your physical strength, you can also take care of cleaning the seven statues."

Seeing the serious expression on Tina's face, Cole silently handed the map back to her: "Yes, Master."

Ying watched from the side, but a question couldn't help but arise in her mind.

What did Tinaly mean by "those things"?

A ferocious beast? A monster? Or something else? Why would he be so wary, even believing that he and someone with the Eye of God like Cole couldn't defeat him together?

Inazuma, Narukami Taisha Shrine.

In the morning, Xia Zhi was taking a walk in the shrine when he saw A Ping standing under a cherry tree, holding a small box and filling it with cherry blossoms.

Xia Zhi walked over to take a look out of curiosity.

"Aping."

"It's Mr. Xia."

"Are you collecting cherry blossoms?"

"Yes, but not entirely."

"Oh?"

“I think the cherry blossoms in Inazuma are very beautiful, and the cherry blossoms at Narukami Shrine have the best fragrance, so I want to collect some cherry tree seeds and plant them in the Dust Song Pot.”

"I see, but it seems there are only cherry blossoms in your box, no seeds..."

"This item is called the [Seed Transformation Box]. It's a small box I used many years ago. I used to use this box to transplant flowers, and the flowers inside could be preserved for a long time. Moreover, after putting the flowers in the box, the box could also produce a few flower seeds... making it very convenient to plant them. Although this box is not very useful now... at least it still retains some of the [Seed Transformation] ability."

"Seedling?"

Xia Zhi looked at the box with some surprise.

"Since this box has such magical abilities, why not try using petals from the Divine Cherry Tree?"

"I've already tried it, but for some reason, the [Seed Transformation Box] didn't work on the cherry blossoms of the Divine Cherry Tree."

"That's it."

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhi pondered for a moment.

Perhaps it's because the Divine Cherry Tree itself is of such high quality that the [Seed Transformation Box] cannot work on it.

What if I evolve it myself? If the quality of the Seed Transformation Box is the same as that of the Divine Cherry Tree, would it be possible to use the Seed Transformation Box to transform the cherry blossoms of the Divine Cherry Tree into its seeds?

If I had the seed and took it back 500 years... could it be that I really planted the sacred cherry tree at Narukami Shrine?

"Ah Ping, may I borrow this for a while?"

Aping paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Of course."

"Thank you."

"However, I also have a small request."

"Oh?"

"I'd like to hear you play the piano and sing for me, the song Liu Yun sent me last time, is that alright?"

Chapter 575 The Worn Seed Box (4K)

It's just a piece of music.

Such a small request is certainly possible.

Xia Zhi nodded and asked, "Now?"

"No, let's wait until tonight,"

Ah Ping handed over the [Seed Transformation Box] in her hand and said softly.

"I'll be waiting for you under the cherry blossom tree then."

After saying that, A-Ping left with an expectant look on her face.

Looking at her slightly excited back, Xia Zhi had a strange feeling of anticipation for a secret rendezvous.

Moreover, A-Ping is Liu Yun's best friend, which makes one feel a subtle sense of immorality.

However, this was just a random thought that popped into my head.

Because Ah Ping has never come to him for a massage even once.

Their views can be described as quite "conservative".

Someone as ethereal as her would never do something as treacherous as stealing her best friend's boyfriend.

Xia Zhi lowered his head and fiddled with the small box in his hand.

Its material is neither gold nor jade, and it feels slightly cool to the touch, with some beautiful patterns on it.

He could sense the aura of immortal power contained within the box.

It must be a special magical artifact that was crafted by some immortal in the past.

The fact that they would specially craft such an item for collecting seeds suggests that they must be a flower lover.
