In Yuanshen, no one understands holy relics better than me

"Hmph, please feel free."

It's just what you want, and the "lady" doesn't want to be with an incompetent smelly man.

With long legs, he walked towards the direction of the gate, which was also the direction of Xia Tian.

Her steps are as elegant as a cat... I still remember that this was the evaluation when Xia Tian first saw her.

Like a night dotted with stars.

It's just that at that time, she was clearly regarded as an enemy, so what about now?

Her eyes are like thousands of years of ice, they have never been hot, and they have never shown the slightest friendship.

Mona is like a little bitch with fried hair, standing in front of Xia Tian, ​​deeply afraid that he will come into contact with this woman.

"Heh." The "Ma'am" chuckled disdainfully, without squinting, she went straight forward.

It's just that when walking by, the surrounding air instantly turned cold and condensed into ice.

A seed gathered by ice crystals germinated in the sight of everyone, and then grew vines and branches, and at the top was a shy flower bud.

Just like that was sent to Xia Tian.

The buds are in full bloom, it is a rose carved from ice, facing the golden light, revealing the crimson of the floor.

I still remember that when I was crushed under the ruins, the "lady" also transformed into such a rose, and the floating ice crystals covered the wounds on Xia Tian's body, stopping the blood flow for him.

In Xia Tian's heart, she was actually a little happy, at least this cold "lady" did not forget the past of suffering together.

Really smug, ready to pluck that rose—

Bang!

The flowers seem to be evaporated by the flames, and the ice crystals rush to the nose like a mist.

This time, there is no wound that needs to be hemostatic. Xia Tian's cheeks are flushed from the cold, and his nose is about to flow out.

"Ha ha……"

The charming laughter of the "lady" was left in the hall, but the figure had disappeared behind the door.

Chapter 290 Three Non-Existent Contracts

The curvaceous and sexy "lady" left, and the ashamed Dadalia disappeared without knowing when.

The huge "North Country Bank" doesn't even have a guard of fools, it's empty, and it looks like it's about to go bankrupt.

I don't know if the Mora left in the bank has been removed and locked. You must know that this is a society without surveillance...

Xia Tian suddenly thought of the gorgeous treasure chest hidden on the second floor in the game, there are a full 20 moras in it!

I don't know if it still exists in reality... It's not good to go up to the second floor blatantly under the eyes of everyone, thinking that it will lure Paimeng, a money-grubbing ghost, to look for it later.

"Whoosh-"

The surrounding air was extremely cold, Mona stood on her tiptoes and blew hot air on Xia Tian's face, helping to blow away the ice debris from her nose.

On the way to the Northland Bank, she and Paimon finished a catty of pumpkin pie together, with white sugar sticking to the corner of her mouth, and the hot breath she exhaled had a sweet aroma.

After confirming that Xia Tian was not damaged by the frost, the distressed and concerned eyes immediately reversed 180 degrees.

"It was 'rose' just now, right?You told me that it means "love" in your hometown...so you hooked up with her? "

Squinting his eyes, his vision was extremely sharp.

Xia Tian is quite used to Mona, who is so jealous: "Don't use such an ugly word as "hook up"... just know, know. "

Mona puffed up her cheeks angrily, because Zhongli and Ying were still there, and she didn't dare to go too far.

She leaned closer and whispered, "Hmph, how many girls are you dating behind my back...Although I'm not saying that I'm so firmly against you knowing beautiful girls, but don't hang out with that kind of bad girl..."

Like Barbara, Amber... those cute and obedient girls, Mona still likes them very much.

Even if it was a serious Keqing, Mona could accept it, it was nothing more than difficult to get along with.

...However, for the "ladies", I always feel that if I join, I will be completely inferior.

There is a feeling that children are fighting with adults, and Mona doesn't have enough confidence in this.

"I've said it all, I really have nothing to do with her, it's nothing more than... When you get back to Mond, you can ask Amber yourself."

There is no time to tell stories now, Xia Tian looked at Zhongli: "...Let's listen to Li Yue's story first."

Mona is still very sensible, and she didn't continue to mess around and force her.

Zhong Li had already finished what he felt should be frank, and looked at the crowd: "Then, is there anything else you want to ask?"

Of course, Ying immediately said: "What is worth the price of God's Heart? What bargaining chip did the Ice God give?"

Paimon has been thinking about this question with his small brain: "Yes, Zhongli often said that the transaction should be fair... But, what else in this world is worth exchanging with the heart of God?"

"Heart of God" represents the authority of the seven gods, and it can be said to be the most precious existence in the Tivat continent.

Behind the competition surrounding the "Heart of God" are countless killings, sacrifices and betrayals.

Let’s just talk about Zhongli himself, in order to get this "Heart of God", not only did he personally suppress his best brother, but he also had to defeat his most important friend, not to mention so many subordinates and disciples who gave their lives for it...

Such a hard-won "Heart of God", what is worth exchanging?

Zhongli was silent for a while, and gave a reasonable answer: "In terms of universal rationality, there really is not."

The topic changed, and he said: "But I am the god of contracts. I have signed thousands of contracts through my hands for thousands of years. If a transaction is not profitable, I will never make it lightly..."

A simple translation of this sentence is... I will not suffer.

"All the previous contracts, whether it was me and Liyue, the immortal and Liyue, or even other countries and Liyue, those contracts were all established on the premise of the "Rock Emperor" with the guarantee of force and divine power..."

"The developing Liyue, the future Liyue, shouldn't have this kind of contract... So, my deal with the God of Ice is a contract I made at the last moment as the God of Rock to end all contracts."

Without the existence of Yanwang Dijun, the immortals protected Liyue no longer because of a contract, but because they wanted to do it so they did it.

Other countries will not plot against Liyue, not because of the agreement between the seven gods, but because Liyue is strong enough to resist.

Without Emperor Yanwang, Liyue will definitely become better... After the test, Zhongli believed in it.

Paimon couldn't understand at all, but she knew that she didn't wait for the answer to the question: "So...you still didn't say what the deal between you and the Ice Queen was in the end!"

Zhongli smiled: "...As for what you are concerned about, on the other side of the balance, what kind of bargaining chip does the Ice Queen add... During your future journey, it is up to you to reveal the answer!"

Standard NPC lines, but Xia Tian didn't have any expectations, after all, I asked when we first met.

The answer I got was...associated with another contract, which cannot be disclosed to others.

But from Zhongli's successive words, it can be understood that... the heart of God was handed over voluntarily by him.

The relationship between Lenovo Zhongli and Barbatos is not bad. Could it be that the "Heart of God" of the original world line Barbatos was given out on purpose?

Otherwise, it would be too cheap for a majestic god to be so heartbroken.

Well... even if it was voluntary, that slap is quite miserable.

It doesn't matter if it's true or not, since Zhongli is willing to give the God's Heart, it means he agrees or doesn't object to the plan that the Ice Queen wants to promote... Then Barbatos' God's Heart is here with me, so doesn't it disrupt the progress of the plan?

Xia Tian can't be sure, maybe he has to wait until he goes back to Mond and ask Barbatos.

I will go to other countries in the future, and the fools will continue to carry out the plan to snatch the heart of God without accident...

Xia Tian originally regarded fools as villains, so it was natural to obstruct them.

But after seeing that Zhongli voluntarily gave it for nothing, he had to think about it... But these are all things for later.

Zhong Li finished his words here, and was about to leave: "If it's okay, I'll go back and prepare for the gift ceremony...you can come to watch the ceremony then."

Interesting, hold a funeral for yourself, and then invite other people to come... Are you planning to celebrate together?

"I..." Xia Tian still has something to do.

He still bears the contract with Zhongli, although I don't know if it is a violation... Even if it is a violation, Xia Tian still wants to learn the "Cave to Heaven Art"!

Zhongli stopped in his tracks, and before Xia Tian spoke, he replied in advance: "I have terminated all contracts...so you don't need to worry about it."

Paimon's puzzled eyes flashed: "Is there a contract between the ogre and Zhongli?"

Ying was thoughtful, probably understood something.

Xia Tian will not be happy because the so-called contract is terminated!I just feel that I am a clown like the son!

For Zhongli, terminating all contracts is clearly a foreseeable result.

Doesn't that mean that the contract signed at the beginning is like waste paper, no matter whether Xia Tian intervenes in Li Yue's affairs, whether he violates or abides by it, he will not be punished in the end!

Then why did you stop me on the hillside?

As if preparing to fight, finally forced me to say something that looked handsome at the time, but was actually extremely embarrassing in retrospect?

What about protecting Liyue, signing a contract like a fairy, etc...

Xia Tian murmured unhappily: "...Then can those words I said be invalidated?"

"Which ones?" Zhongli was puzzled.

Xia Tian scratched his head in embarrassment: "The ones before I went to Qunyu Pavilion at the end..."

"Hehe..." Zhong Li laughed: "I classify those words as ordinary oaths, which do not belong to the scope of a contract, and have no effect... Whether or not to invalidate what you said is entirely up to you .”

……

What a "vow"!It's a good one to invalidate what you said!Isn't this directly checkmate?

Without further discussion, Zhongli said: "You guys also participated in Ningguang's banquet... why don't we talk at the banquet."

Eh?Zhongli is going to attend Ningguang's banquet?

Xia Tian remembers, Ning Guang seems to have always wanted to win Zhong Li over, wouldn't this be the beginning?

Pai Meng came to his senses: "That's right! Let's hurry up to Ningguang's banquet! Maybe we can start eating earlier..."

"Yeah, hurry up and eat crabs." Mona licked her lips, but she was also anxious.

She pulled Ying, regardless of Xia Tian, ​​and Paimeng stepped out of Beiguo Bank.

Xia Tian also wanted to say that there might be 20 on the second floor... Forget it.

If you take ill-gotten wealth, you will be murdered.

Chapter 290 The Story of Ningguang and Wanmintang

Stepping out of Beiguo Bank seems to have changed the sky.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the pillars and eaves, and the sunset glow reddened the moon, which is too beautiful to behold.

Liyue's clothes are decorated with a unique classical beauty, excellent craftsmanship coupled with outstanding silk technology, making it extremely comfortable to stick to the body.

But Xia Tian can't just go to the banquet like this, he grabbed Mona who was thinking about the big crab: "Let's go home first, I have to take a bath."

Dirty is not dirty, but the underwear is crowded and must be changed.

But what he said made Ying a little embarrassed.

Ying has been busy all day, returning from the ruins of the end of the world, and has to fight with the "gongzi", and go to the Jade Pavilion to fight off the fools, so she has no time to care about her image.

Although his face was still so pretty, his white body had turned to gray.

Xia Xia’s words seemed to be talking about her, so she took two steps back in embarrassment, and whispered to Paimon: "Pimon, let's go back to the inn and get ready!"

"Eh? But..." Paimon's expression was reluctance, she was worried that if she was late, all the delicious food would be snatched up by others.

But Ying's appearance is really out of place.

To participate in such an important event as a banquet, you still have to dress up beautifully, so that you will have face.

I had no choice but to nod aggrievedly: "Okay."

So, everyone met at the port an hour later.

……

Yujing Terrace was very quiet, and the signboard disturbed by the storm was repaired very quickly, as if nothing had happened.

Go back to Yuheng mansion along the white stone road.

Instead of going to the big bathhouse, I chose to use the small shower that comes with the room to rinse.

The silk clothes slid down the skin, and Xia Tian noticed that the body was very clean, and most of the wounds had signs of being healed.
