"For 'Xue Qinghe,' this was the first time putting something on a tab, and it was somewhat embarrassing.
After she, Zhongli, and Paimon walked out of the Seven Treasure Hotel, she hurriedly said goodbye.
There will be plenty of time to make friends in the future, so there is no need to waste time on this. Right now, she just wants to find a quiet place.
"Zhongli, Qinghe left in a hurry. Is there something wrong?"
"As a guest of the Crown Prince, would you like to help?"
Rubbing her stomach, Paimon withdrew her gaze from Xue Qinghe's back, turned to Zhongli, and said.
"Um..."
Seeing Xue Qinghe's hurried steps, almost like she was fleeing, Zhongli knew that things weren't so simple.
After all, it's normal for a girl to feel embarrassed.
Unlike him, being a six-thousand-year-old old man, he didn't feel the slightest bit of awkwardness!
Wait a minute, Zhongli looked at Paimon with some surprise. This little fellow truly lives up to the title of "Quest Giver"!
Xue Qinghe left in a hurry, was there something going on?
If he just followed up with a few words, wouldn't that trigger a quest?
Maybe give a little help?
No wonder that blonde aunt always had endless tasks to do, it turns out this little one was constantly "seeking out" quests!
At over six thousand years old, doing tasks was out of the question!
"She's fine, let's go."
"Huh?"
"Why?"
Paimon was stunned, a little confused. This routine seemed a little different.
Traveler wasn't like this before!
If it was Traveler, they would have followed her stealthily!
"Zhongli!"
Paimon stamped her feet, looked at Zhongli's receding back, and hurriedly followed him.
In this different world, without Zhongli by her side, she didn't feel safe at all.
"You, don't tell me you're still the same as when you were in Liyue?"
"Strolling through the streets, watching birds, listening to storytelling..."
"This isn't Liyue!"
"I think we should really explore the Douluo Continent..."
"Heaven Dou Empire, Star Luo Empire, Spirit Hall, Star Dou Forest..."
"That's the true meaning of travel!"
Paimon chattered incessantly. Zhongli glanced at her sideways, not annoyed, but just watching her with a smile.
This little fellow was probably bought off with just two meals.
No wonder the Traveler was so poor in the early days, even after helping Mondstadt with such a big problem, they didn't get any Mora.
Wait a minute!
Zhongli touched his chin. If he remembered correctly, he didn't give the Traveler any reward either, did he?
Rewards aren't important. What's important is the bond of friendship!
Yes!
"Little one, the journey will eventually reach its end. There is no need to rush!"
As soon as Zhongli finished speaking, Paimon subconsciously complained, "You just want to give up, right?!"
After hearing this, Zhongli looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, a sense of loneliness emanating from him.
Paimon: "???"
The little head is filled with big question marks.
"Paimon, you have a pure heart!"
High emotional intelligence: You have a pure heart.
Low EQ: I think you are stupid...
"Our journey has just begun. There is still a long way to go and we need to be fully prepared."
"…"
"You don't want to be without food while on the road, do you?"
"Yes I didn't think of that!"
"Zhongli, I think we still need to make some preparations!"
"Well, let's go to the teahouse first."
"good!"
Sure enough, this little guy can be fooled seven times a day.
At least!
At this time, Shrek and his group were still hanging around the city gate.
"Heaven Dou City is too dangerous. We just arrived and We have offended the Crown Prince, the Fourth Prince and two Titled Douluo."
"Flander, how about we go back to Shrek Academy?"
Zhao Wuji folded his arms, a look of loneliness on his resolute face.
In all the years they have dominated Souto City, they have never encountered such a situation.
How long has it been?
In less than a day, they almost lost their life twice.
Even if you are brave and courageous, you can't stand such stimulation!
After hearing this, Flanders fell into deep thought.
Because Dai Mubai beat up Xue Beng, they were unable to successfully join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Because Dai Mubai lost his temper, he almost... No, he was just looking for death, to offend a Titled Douluo with a 100,000-year spirit ring!
That is the most terrifying existence in the entire Douluo Continent!
Fortunately, they have some connections here...
Suddenly, Flander seemed to have thought of something and suddenly realized it!
"Compensation?"
He didn't know who gave the compensation, but he could vaguely guess.
Either he is Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao, or he belongs to the Star Luo Empire.
No matter who it is, this "compensation" is definitely not that simple.
"Yes, teacher, let's go back to Sotou City, back to the village… No, let's go back to Shrek Academy."
"Here in Heaven Dou City, this place is really unfriendly."
Ma Hongjun, Flander's direct disciple, also spoke from the side.
He had had enough, and his heart was still trembling!
"Dean, don't hesitate anymore. We were kicked out of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, let's go back to Shrek Academy. We'll make our academy bigger and stronger, achieve glory once more, and give the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy a hard slap in the face!"
With Ma Hongjun's previous experience as a cautionary tale, Oscar dared not mention the name of any powerful individual and directly talked about the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy situation.
After a while, Flender shook his head; he hadn't forgotten the main reason they came to Heaven Dou City!
"Er Long..."
If it weren't for Liu Erlong being in Heaven Dou City, he wouldn't have come to Heaven Dou City after leaving the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Flander saw an advertisement posted on the city wall.
"Blue Tyrant Academy is recruiting teachers?"
"Blue Tyrant Academy?"
Isn't this the academy opened by Liu Erlong?
Flander didn't show any sign of fluctuation, as if he didn't know anything about Blue Tyrant Academy.
After some discussion, everyone finally listened to Flander's advice and went to Blue Tyrant Academy.
The sun sets in the west and the moon appears. Under the night sky, there are also many busy figures.
Some major forces finally got information about Zhongli.
"What?!"
"Twin martial spirits!"
"Title Douluo with Hundred thousand year spirit ring!"
Not only does he have twin martial spirits, he is also a Titled Douluo. Not only is he a Titled Douluo but he also possesses a hundred thousand year spirit ring!
What kind of terrifying expert is this?
"Qinghe, did you say this formidable expert is a guest official at Prince Palace?"
Such a terrifying existence actually becoming a Guest Official for the crown prince!
"Yes, Father. Mr. Zhongli is not only immensely powerful but also a rare genius seen once in a millennium."
"Today, I was fortunate to meet Mr. Zhongli and invite him to be a guest official, which is a great fortune for your son."
Xue Ye's eye twitched; he couldn't fathom how Xue Qinghe had managed to recruit Zhongli.
Could such an existence be swayed by money and status?
If that were possible, the Heaven Dou Empire wouldn't have only the "weakest titled" Dugu Bo as a guest elder.
Dugu Bo: So, should I leave then?
If he is sent by other forces...
No, it's impossible!
How could other forces send such a terrifying existence to come undercover?
