"Uh...."
Chen Zhixing blinked. He didn’t feel there was any problem with his current state. If possible, he wouldn’t mind having a chat with Sos right now and accepting the Starry Divinity from him.
But how could he give Sos a hint without leaving a trace, to let him give the Starry Divinity right now?
He thought for a long time and finally decided to be honest.
"Sos, if you have Starry Divinity, I hope we can have this conversation now. You know, the Starry Divinity has a certain effect on stabilizing my current state."
"Is that so." Sos was visibly startled upon hearing this, because in Chen Zhixing’s current state, merging with divinity would have a negative effect.
But smart people never make others feel embarrassed.
Just saw Sos still maintaining that gentle smile on his face:
"If your state isn’t a problem, we can start now."
...
"Ah! It’s so annoying!"
While Chen Zhixing and Sos were having this conversation that was about to change the Cosmic World, on the other side, Yimiao was already holding the Fire Divinity of Cosmic World in her hand, but she looked annoyed.
"So, can anyone tell me why these two little things are so noisy!"
She had one hand on each of two delicate little figures about the size of five-year-old children, trying their best to escape. If it weren’t for Yimiao’s hands pinning them down, they would have long disappeared without a trace.
"Let go of me! Let go of me!"
"You ugly old woman! Let us go!"
"Get your filthy hand off! You’ve dirtied me!"
"Damn it! You damn it!"
"Ah ah ah... so annoying!!!"
Yimiao began to regret listening to those old guys from the Holy Land and coming out on this trip.
They insisted on having her capture these golden natures, saying that bringing them back to Celestial Profound would help stabilize her position after Huayu and Chen Zhixing leave, and that with the help of those old folks from the Spirit Realm, she might regain her title as the number one in the world.
Yimiao didn’t believe these words. No one understood better than her that once the position of the lone ruler is lost, it is almost impossible to regain it.
The only reason she took this trip was because she respected those old guys.
But no one told her that these golden natures, once away from their hosts and reanimated, would behave like this!
"Old woman, get your filthy hand off, you’ve dirtied my hair!"
"Let us go! Let us go!"
"So why did I come to the Cosmic World to babysit!!!"
...
Yimiao was about to be driven crazy by the golden natures condensed by the water and fire Taoist techniques.
In contrast, Shi Hao, on the other side, encountered wood attribute divinity figures, which was another extreme.
In that not-so-large herb garden, under a money tree in front of a small hut, a green wood elf looked at Shi Hao with a longing gaze.
"Divine Envoy, are you here to take us away?"
Heaven knows why this little one thought Shi Hao was the so-called Divine Envoy!
Anyway, upon witnessing this, Zhang Wen felt sour all over.
With a pat on Shi Hao’s shoulder, Zhang Wen said helplessly: "Cough... cough cough... Divine Envoy, they’re calling you."
Shi Hao: "..."
He’s a Divine Envoy?
His master never mentioned this!
Crouching down before the little one: "I am not a Divine Envoy, uh, I am Shi Hao, perhaps a descendant of the elder who created this place. You can call me Shi Hao."
This wasn’t because Shi Hao was indifferent to the plant spirit elves before him, nor the divinity figures Zhang Wen mentioned as possible, but because his master Chen Zhixing told him that when facing some unimportant matters, he should remain honest.
Shi Hao didn’t consider these plant spirits important enough to cause him to lie.
Hearing this, Zhang Wen coughed with his hand over his heart, unsure of what to say.
"Oh oh, you’re a descendant of the Stone Race... the master’s descendant, indeed. The master’s trick back then really works! Let me tell you, if you had just admitted to being a Divine Envoy, we wouldn’t follow you!"
The green little one spoke earnestly, seemingly praising Shi Hao’s honesty.
Yet Zhang Wen could clearly see that when Shi Hao said he wasn’t a Divine Envoy, the green little one hesitated for a moment, as for the rest of the words...
’Haha, if Shi Hao had admitted to being a Divine Envoy, you’d be clinging to him, asking him to take you away.’
Life is hard enough, Zhang Wen had recognized this reality.
This green little one apparently took a liking to Shi Hao, no matter what Shi Hao said, the green little one would agree.
Is it just because his surname is Shi?
Zhang Wen sighed, not wanting to speak anymore.
Shi Hao clearly didn’t care about Zhang Wen’s change of heart. Seeing the little one say this, Shi Hao’s face also showed a smile.
Shi Hao reached out a hand to the green little one and said: "Hello, I am Shi Hao, from Ziwei Mountain in Jiangzhou of Celestial Profound Realm, my master is Star Venerable Chen Zhixing. Nice to meet you, adorable little guy."
The green little one put one finger in its mouth, and cautiously extended the other hand to Shi Hao.
"The master named me Mu Yingchun, um, according to the master’s words, this world is my home, um um, the master left it to me. If Shi Hao, you want it, then... then...."
Mu Yingchun seemed confused on what to do next, because the former master never instructed it, only saying that in the near future, someone of the Stone Race would come here to take it away.
