Chapter 171 The Great Tree King: Let Whoever Wants to Stay in Liyue Harbor Stay As They Like
Chapter 171 The Great Tree King: Let Whoever Wants to Stay in Liyue Harbor Stay As They Like
"Zhongli came looking for you just now, but left when he saw you weren't there."
Upon seeing Bai Mu return, the Great Tree King spoke to him.
Zhong Li had just come to see Bai Mu, and the expression on his face suggested that something was wrong.
However, Bai Mu was at Qingce Manor at the time and did not return, so Zhong Li left.
"The matter in Liyue Harbor has been basically resolved. What could he possibly want from me?"
Bai Mu was very puzzled when he heard that Zhong Li had just come to see him about something.
There's basically nothing going on in Liyue Harbor these days. If anything happens, it's always Seven Stars' business, and it has nothing to do with him.
Bai Muzhen couldn't believe that Zhongli was still coming to find him.
"How would I know if you ask me? You'll have to ask Zhongli."
The Great Tree King rolled its eyes, speechless at Bai Mu's idiotic question.
She's not Zhongli, how could she possibly know what Zhongli is thinking?
"Uh, okay."
"But since he didn't wait for me here, it's probably not something urgent. I can go find him in a couple of days."
After thinking for a moment, Bai Mu spoke to the Great Compassion Tree King.
There's almost nothing major happening in Liyue right now, so Zhongli probably won't be looking for him about anything important. There's no need for him to rush.
"So, your next destination is Dotole?"
"Hmm, no rush. The progress over there isn't too fast. I just need to give him some of the flesh and blood of the couple I just harvested."
After thinking for a moment, Shiraki decided that the matter of the God of the Righteousness was not urgent.
When he went to the God of Zhengji's experimental base, the God of Zhengji had just completed a framework.
In addition, they haven't yet obtained Thor's Heart of God, and are still far from completing the God of the Righteous Machine.
There's no need for Shiraki to rush over there.
"So what are your plans for the rest of the time?"
The Great Tree King looked at the white tree, who had been wanting to go out for a while recently.
It's not that she's had enough of Liyue Harbor; for a while, she really wanted to stay there.
But ever since Bai Mu took control of the family's finances, things were fine for the first few days, but now she doesn't want to stay in Liyue Harbor for even a day longer.
"Next... let me think."
Bai Mu briefly outlined his upcoming itinerary, and then began to explain it to the Great Kindred Tree King:
"First, give the Demon God's flesh and blood to the Doctor, and send Narcida to... send her to Ningguang to study for a while. Then, the two of us can go out for a walk and go find that Apep you mentioned before, how about that?"
"We don't have to stay in Liyue Harbor anymore?!"
When the Great Tree King heard Shiraki say he wanted to go for a walk, his eyes lit up.
If she were still the Great Tree Queen, she would stay in Liyue Harbor without complaint and accept the exploitation of the Whitewood.
But that's no longer the case; she is no longer the emotionally detached Great Tree King.
She is now a member of Shiraki's family, the little king with her own emotions and desires.
A person with emotions and desires cannot stay in Liyue Harbor indefinitely without any money.
Because of the bustling atmosphere of Liyue Harbor, it's hard for people to resist spending money.
"Of course, the situation in Liyue Harbor has been mostly resolved."
"We can go wherever we want from now on, and we don't need to worry about the country at all."
Bai Mu waved his hand and said with great pride.
"Then hurry back, I'll be waiting for you at home."
Having received the answer he wanted, the Great Tree King urged Bai Mu to hurry up.
She now wishes she could just throw Bai Mu over to the professor.
"Then I'll be going now. I should be back in less than half a day."
Bai Mu waved to the Great Tree King, then stepped into the spatial portal that had opened behind him.
......
Sumeru.
An underground factory belonging to the Fools somewhere.
The doctor, who was resting in his room, was suddenly tapped on the shoulder.
This time, he didn't make any big moves like last time. A hint of excitement flashed in his eyes as he slowly turned his head to look at the figure he had been longing for behind him.
Ever since Shiraki left, he had been looking forward to Shiraki's return.
Two days ago, this expectation reached its peak when he received the news that "the Demon God of Liyue, Oser, has been killed".
Because the doctor knew very well that he would soon get what he had been dreaming of.
Although he had studied things related to demon gods, such as demon god remnants.
He had never studied a demon god as powerful as Oser before.
What's more, this demon god was killed on the spot.
"Your Majesty, you have arrived."
Although he was excited, he still needed to maintain appearances. Moreover, the doctor already held the person who proposed that "the God of the True Machine needs seven energy devices" in high regard.
This is a characteristic behavior of someone like him when facing someone even more insane than himself.
What the doctor didn't know was that Shiraki wasn't crazy; he was simply stating a fact.
"Yes, the items have been brought. I look forward to your next steps."
With a wave of his hand, Shiraki presented two heads and a roughly cubic meter mass of flesh to the Doctor.
Feeling the aura emanating from the head, the doctor felt every cell in his body trembling.
He gently stroked the two heads, as if he were caressing a fine work of art.
"Your Majesty, these two heads shouldn't belong to the same person, right?"
As if sensing something, the professor asked Shiraki with a puzzled look.
“That’s right, one of the heads is Osel’s, and the other is his wife, Bache.”
"When I killed them, I didn't control my strength well and killed them both in one go."
Bai Mu spoke very casually, and upon hearing this, a rare look of awe flashed in the Doctor's eyes.
At the same time, a bold idea suddenly popped into the doctor's mind for no apparent reason:
Gods like Shiraki, who are even more insane and powerful than himself, are the ones he should follow.
What comparison is there between the Ice God and His Majesty?
"Your Majesty's strength truly exceeds my expectations."
Pulling himself out of his thoughts, the doctor stroked the piece of flesh on the ground and couldn't help but compliment Bai Mu.
"Hehe, there's something even more unexpected coming next."
Shiraki gave a cryptic smile.
Looking at Shiraki's smile, the Doctor suddenly felt a sense of unease for no apparent reason.
But he quickly suppressed this feeling of unease.
After all, what he is here now is just a fragment. Even if Bai Mu doesn't trust him and wants to tamper with him, the worst outcome would be the loss of a fragment.
This has virtually no impact on him personally.
