"is it okay?"
"Of course." Yali nodded, "But if someone comes to see me, I'll ask you to help me and pay attention."
"This is what I should do!" Qili responded with high spirits.
Gathering from all directions ([-])
At noon, the moon elves brought food to Shi Liuli and others who had already settled here to fulfill their obligations as masters.
Because of the different living environments and races, most of the meals are fairy fruits and vegetables from the forest.Although the ingredients are simple, after being processed by the moon elves, the taste is not bad, but it has a unique flavor.
After eating, perhaps because he hadn't had any real rest recently, Penglai Wanyue asked Shi Liuli to push him out to bask in the sun.
Of course Shi Liuli would not refuse and pushed Penglai Wanyue onto the grass in the yard instead of outside.
Sometimes spending some time quietly like this is also a kind of enjoyment.
Sitting on her knees on the grass in the yard, with just the right amount of sunshine bringing pleasant warmth, Shi Liuli rested her head on Penglai's tail holding the moon, and a trace of tiredness flooded into her brain.
But she immediately shook her head violently, trying to drive away the sleepiness from her mind.
Now it was time alone with Penglai Wanyue, how could she spend it sleeping?
She looked at Penglai Wanyue and found that Chunbai had closed her eyes at some point, breathing peacefully between her nose and lips, and her pair of fox ears were lazily drooped slightly, as if she was asleep.
But is she really asleep?
not necessarily.
It seems that because Shi Liuli's eyes have been staying on his face, Penglai Wanyue's "sleeping face" showed a slight fluctuation, then he opened his eyes, turned his head slightly, and looked at the girl under him.
"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
As she said that, she actually took a tail and wiped it on her face, but there was nothing.
Shi Liuli was stunned by her operation.
I dare you to use your tail like this! ?
"So what are you looking at me?"
Being made uncomfortable by Shi Liuli's gaze, but not giving a reason, Penglai Wanyue couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
"No, no!"
Shi Liuli hurriedly waved his hands, then stacked them on the armrests of the wheelchair one by one, rested his head on it, and tilted his head to look at Penglai Wanyue.
"I was just thinking, Xiaoyue, do you really like being with me?"
Probably because he still didn't understand what Shi Liuli said, Penglai Wanyue blinked and tilted his head slightly, unexpectedly showing a hint of cuteness, which made Shi Liuli smile secretly in his heart.
But she still reacted quickly.
"What did you say--!?"
She screamed in a very rare way, her voice was so high that it was a little out of tune. The calmness that she used to have without changing her expression when the mountain collapsed in front of her completely turned into panic, and the fox ears that were originally a little loose suddenly stood up.
Feeling the tail that he had put on his thigh stiffen, Shi Liuli immediately knew that he was right, and a narrow smile appeared on his face.
"I said, Xiaoyue, do you like me very much?" She repeated it mischievously, obviously it was not necessary.
Although he concealed it well, Penglai Wanyue still saw the smile hidden in Shi Liuli's eyes, and immediately raised his eyebrows, making people wonder if he would jump out from above in the next moment.
"Shi Liuli, are you asking for a beating?"
Two fingers pinched the girl's cheek that was close at hand. Penglai Wanyue pulled it with appropriate strength, but the strength was still not small. Shi Liuli let out a mournful cry of "wuwuwu".
Feeling that this was enough, Penglai Wanyue let go of his hand, then put his fingers together into a palm, and gently patted one side of Shi Liuli's face with the back of his hand.
"Next time you talk nonsense, this will fall on your face."
Penglai Wanyue narrowed his eyes, full of threats.
But Shi Liuli, who had already seen Penglai Wanyue's sincerity, was not afraid of her at all, and even took the initiative to stretch her face over and nuzzled Penglai Wanyue's jade hand like a kitten.
"Hehehe~ Xiaoyue wouldn't do this, because Xiaoyue likes me the most, right?"
The girl said this with a happy and trusting smile on her face.
Penglai Wanyue's anger couldn't help but stagnate. Looking at the girl who was obediently rubbing his hand, his expression changed several times, and finally he let out a long sigh, full of helplessness.
She did not refute Shi Liuli this time, but asked after a moment of silence: "Why do you think so?"
Even she herself didn't notice that there was a hint of inquiry in her tone.
"Well -" Shi Liuli stopped and thought carefully, "Because I have never seen you, Xiaoyue, show such a side to others."
"Such a side?"
Penglai Wanyue frowned, feeling dissatisfied with Shi Liuli's vague statement.
"How should I say it?"
The girl showed a troubled expression, tilting her head to the left and then again, like a pendulum that keeps swinging, never stopping at a certain number.
She never knew how to express emotional things with words.
Because he couldn't get the answer he wanted, Penglai Wanyue, who was intrigued, thought Shi Liuli did it on purpose, and his face turned cold.
"Ah, right!" Shi Liuli, who hadn't noticed, suddenly became energetic, clapped his hands and said excitedly:
"Let go - that's it! Xiaoyue, you can only let go when you are with me!"
After comparisons again and again, Shi Liuli discovered that Penglai Wanyue had never shown such a demeanor or emotion in front of others, let alone holding her tail as unscrupulously as he did.
Even Mo Yu didn't get such treatment.
She was special - Shi Liuli, who realized this, felt her brain was shaking, and she was so excited that she couldn't calm down.
Penglai Wanyue, who was about to punish Shi Liuli again, was stunned after hearing the answer. He looked at the excited girl blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Is this the 'answer'?......
Penglai Wanyue pursed her thin lips tightly, and an imperceptible light flashed deep in her eyes.If Shi Liuli could see it, he would definitely be able to see that it was some kind of entangled and extremely complicated 'thing'.
After a while, Penglai Wanyue took a long breath again, and then burst into laughter with a "poof~". The cold lines on his face formed a smile that could melt thousands of glaciers.
Shi Liuli, who didn't know why Penglai Wanyue was laughing, looked at her in confusion, and finally took in this scene that could make the world stop, and it was deeply engraved in his mind.
At this moment, Shi Liuli's eyes were completely occupied by Penglai Wanyue's face, as if it was imprinted on it and could not be dissipated for a long time.
However, Penglai Wanyue quickly put away his smile, coughed slightly, and did not comment on Shi Liuli's answer. Instead, he closed his eyes again, facing the sun, and his fox ears fell down lazily. Everything seemed like Back to a while ago.
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but Shi Liuli always felt that there seemed to be something different about that peaceful face that was the same as before, as if there had been some fundamental change, but she couldn't tell the specifics.
After much hesitation, Shi Liuli, who was very concerned about Penglai Wanyue's smile just now, decided to interrupt Penglai Wanyue's short rest and was about to ask a question.
——Benedict, Benedict, Benedict
Because the two of them were in the courtyard, this sudden sound emphasized their presence.
Penglai Wanyue, who had just closed her eyes for a short time, opened her eyes again, and Xianshi Liuli said in one step, "Come in."
The person who responded was a moon elf, the one who had brought food to the two of them just now.
The moment he saw the two of them, the moon elf blinked and realized that his timing was wrong, and he immediately apologized to the two of them.
"Sorry, I'm here to collect the bowls, excuse me for disturbing you."
"Ha...it's okay." Shi Liuli responded somewhat depressedly,
The moon elf, who didn't understand the ins and outs of it, naturally didn't hear it, but he also knew that he shouldn't disturb people's interest, so he quickly did his own thing and left in a hurry.
But before she left, she paused again, turned around and said to the two of them:
"By the way, if you two feel bored, there is a city dozens of miles away from here, which will be more lively."
"Is there a city here!?" Shi Liuli couldn't help but be surprised.
This place is very close to the Forest of Noda, and since the disappearance of the moon elves, the Forest of Noda has gradually become dilapidated. No one has come here since then, and now the other party tells him that there is a city here!
"It's like this. Strictly speaking, this place should be located within the scope of the Eastern Region, but it is also close to Zhongzhou, and Zhongzhou is the core of the entire continent. It is naturally very attractive, both in terms of power and people."
Although the other party didn't finish what he said, Shi Liuli still heard it.
People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places - Zhongzhou is a place that many people want to go to, and the same is naturally true for some unconventional forces in the Eastern Region. Everyone wants to get closer to Zhongzhou as much as possible. Therefore, even this "deserted land" still has the location of a certain force, which is why there is such a city.
Gathering from all directions ([-])
After the moon elf left, Penglai Wanyue and Shi Liuli's eyes met as if they had a telepathic connection.
"go?"
"Well, it happens to be boring."
It didn't take much effort to reach a consensus. Shi Liuli stood up and pushed Penglai Wanyue out, preparing to ask Qili and Yali if they were going.
Yali's yard is next door, but Shi Liuli only saw Qili.
"Where is Xiaoya?" she asked Qili.
"Senior Yali went to visit other saints. He won't be back in a short time, right? Is there something wrong?"
Shi Liuli informed Qili of his intention and invited Qili to come with him.
But Qili declined her politely.
"I'm sorry, Liuli. Senior Yali asked me to stay here for a while. I can't leave."
"That's it..."
Shi Liuli came back a little disappointed, but he couldn't make Qili feel embarrassed, so he waved his hand and said:
"Then I'll go with Xiaoyue first. If Xiaoya comes back and asks about it, please tell her."
Qili nodded in agreement, and Shi Liuli pushed Penglai Wanyue over.
The distance of dozens of miles was only a few steps for the two of them, so they saw the outline of the city in the next moment.
It's quite big, at least several times bigger than the small town of Weisu.Even though he hadn't gone in yet and was just looking from a distance, Shi Liuli could see that it was almost overcrowded, with heads everywhere, and it looked very lively.
Isn’t this too lively?Shi Liuli couldn't help but be speechless.
I don’t know which force owns this city, but to have such a city with a large flow of people so close to Zhongzhou, it shouldn’t be too bad, right?
Dongzhou Continent does not only have five superpowers. There are many sub-level forces that are actually no worse than the five superpowers, both in terms of scale and basic strength.
As for why they can only be at the second level and cannot stand side by side with the five superpowers, it is because they all lack an extremely important and indispensable element, and that is——
Sanctified
The existence of sainthood is an important factor that determines whether a force can be labeled as 'super'.
But these were none of Shi Liuli's business, and she didn't care at all.
Seeing that there was a checkpoint at the city gate, Shi Liuli and the two planned to enter through the city gate based on the principle of politeness. Moreover, there were so many people who wanted to pass the checkpoint that they were so many that they were almost out of sight. It's over.
This is obviously abnormal. Even if a city is prosperous, it will not reach this level.If there were such a large floating population in normal times, Lian Tiancheng should have been accustomed to such scenes and found ways to solve the congestion situation.
Now it was as if there was something in the city that was attracting people to the city, which aroused Shiruri and the others' interest.
So while queuing up, the two of them heard some information that was insignificant but worth listening to.
It turns out that the city itself is a force. The city is called Liantian City and is jointly controlled by three powerful families.
As for the city lord, he is elected every five years. Every five years, the three major families will hold a competition among their young disciples, and the results of the competition will determine which family will be the incoming city lord.
Although there is an element of interest in this, it is also a good way to stimulate the three major families.
Because if any family lags behind, then the position of city lord who can get the majority of the profits will never be with that family. This is tantamount to embarking on the path of decline, and sooner or later they will be squeezed out of the ranks of the three major families. , and was even expelled from Liantian City.
The weak eat the strong, this is the nature and truth of this world, so the three major families will definitely work hard to catch up with each other, not to be left behind.When the three major families become powerful enough, maybe another super power will be born on the mainland.
But these are not what Shi Liuli is interested in. What interests her is that not long ago, the five-year term of the city lord of Liantian City came to an end.
From the chats of these people, we can know that the competition between the three major families is scheduled for tomorrow.
These people came to watch from other nearby interest groups belonging to Liantian City. Of course, there were also people who came to watch the excitement.
But even if this event is only held once every five years, it is impossible to attract people of this size to come and watch. There must be other reasons.
Sure enough, Shi Liuli, who had been waiting in line for a while, heard some interesting information.
It turns out that it was not the competition that attracted these people. The protagonist was actually someone else.
