I'm a male god in Liyue

"Oh, that's easy. Just give it more [God Jumps Over the Wall] later."

"I get it! Guoba, you're in for a treat today!"

"Woo?"

--

Outside, after glancing at Xia Lin a few more times, Xia Le looked away, reverting to her innocent demeanor.

She looked at Wendy, who was drinking, and asked curiously, "Barbatos, where's your lyre?"

Wendy took out the xylophone from her waist: "Here it is."

Xia Le glanced at it and shook his head: "Not this one, what about the one you used in the competition?"

"You mean the Sky Harp? It's already been returned."

"Isn't it yours?"

“It used to be mine, now it belongs to Mondstadt.”

Since the bard has already taken out his harp, he should naturally play a piece for everyone.

The melodious sound of the zither echoed within the small space of the Dust Song Pot.

After Wendy finished playing, Xia Le shook her head and said, "It didn't sound as good as what the older brother played."

Wendy: "..."

Xia Ci nodded and said, "It's from drinking."

Dragon King: "..."

Xia Zhen reached out and touched Xia Le's clothes, her expression slightly different.

She noticed that although the clothes looked ordinary, they had no seams at all.

Such special clothing is something that ordinary people cannot make.

Xia Zhen remembered that when Xia Lin first came to her house last time, she was also wearing clothes without a single seam.

Without a doubt, these clothes were prepared by my cousin.

Xia Zhen glanced down again and noticed that Xia Le's pants were the same type as her clothes.

In other words, all the clothes she was wearing were given to her by her cousin.

She was probably naked before her cousin gave her clothes.

Xia Zhen immediately thought of herself. When she was summoned back to life and when she was resurrected, she was also naked in front of her cousin.

The first time, she felt somewhat ashamed, but she relaxed by using the excuse that her cousin was blind.

By the second time, her mindset was completely different; she was much more open and confident.

And this girl in front of me, who has just taken human form, is already able to do this kind of thing without any instruction...

Xia Zhen glanced at Xia Lin, who was eating over there, without making it obvious.

Although Xia Ci is the embodiment of wisdom, Xia Zhen's wisdom is not low either.

She used to appear somewhat "dazed" because of her incomplete mental state.

Now that she has been fully resurrected, all those problems no longer exist.

Xia Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking of the dragon disaster that happened in Mondstadt last year.

Five hundred years ago, Dvalin swallowed the poisonous blood of Dullin, which transformed into a poisonous stinger. It has been tormented by the power of this abyss for five hundred years. It wanted to seek the help of its companion Barbatos, but Barbatos had fallen into a deep sleep due to insufficient power. It wanted to seek the help of the people of Mondstadt, but the people who had not seen it for a long time were afraid of it.

Finally, it returned sadly to the ruins in the north, but was bewitched by the Abyss Order. Overwhelmed by negative emotions, it felt betrayed and wanted to punish Mondstadt.

The reason for the Mondstadt scourge is quite simple, but if you think about it carefully, Dvalin was tormented by the power of the abyss for five hundred years.

Xia Zhen had participated in the Battle of Kanria, so she knew very well how terrifying the Abyss was.

The poisonous sting that tormented Dvalin was not just a fishbone stuck in his throat; the fact that it could endure such pain for five hundred years already surprised Xia Zhen.

It's said that it was misled by the Abyss Cult, but Dvalin's rank is far higher than those Abyss mages. If Dvalin didn't have such thoughts in its mind, these temptations wouldn't have affected it.

In other words, Dvalin's mind must have been somewhat distorted during those painful five hundred years.

She truly harbored resentment towards Barbatos, and she also truly resented Mondstadt.

Even with the help of that stranger named Ying, who purified the poisonous thorn that tormented her, she still harbored immense resentment that was suppressed and not fully released.

It wasn't until a few days ago, during a music competition, that her cousin's piano playing resonated with her, and finally, she felt understood by others, and she burst into tears.

For her, it was not only the most beautiful piano piece she had ever heard, but also a psychological redemption.

Driven by a sense of "revenge" or "compensation," the feelings that were originally for his companions and for Mondstadt, which he was protecting, were transferred to this newly acquainted older brother.

And this older brother was so gentle, not only playing the piano for her, but also cooking for her, and even helping to clean her house and make her a beautiful home, which made her like him a lot.

In contrast, Barbatos, that drunkard, spends his days hanging out with other dragons in taverns and shows no concern for his former companions.

Xia Zhen couldn't help but click her tongue softly.

Given his past experiences, it's quite normal for Dvalin Challenger to have a slightly cunning personality.

The reason she pretends to be so innocent is essentially because she's afraid of losing this hard-won relationship; she's just somewhat starved for love.

She's still just a little girl.

Xia Zhen looked at Xia Le and smiled slightly.

You've been seen through by your older sister.

Lunch was served at noon.

The first time I tried Barbara's "God Jumps Over the Wall" soup, it was so delicious I almost cried.

At the same time, the silver progress bar hanging on her body was being rapidly filled up with each "feeding".

Xia Zhi glanced at the new silver treasure chest in his inventory and smiled.

This can be considered an unexpected gain today.

Gan Yu was still eating the herbal soup that Xia Zhi specially provided for her alone.

She's still in that special phase; whenever she eats this kind of highly nutritious food, her body feels hot, but thankfully it doesn't emit that coconut milk smell.

Shen He noticed she was blushing slightly and asked, "Senior Sister, are you alright?"

Gan Yu said softly, "I'm fine."

They ate grass during the day, but tonight they'll probably have to work like oxen and horses again.

Because there were three dragons at today's dinner, Xia Zhi specially made extra "God Jumps Over the Wall" (a type of spicy offal soup), and also to replenish Guoba's energy.

Drinking and drinking, laughter and laughter.

Guided by Qin, Barbara also toasted Wendy and Xia Zhi, saying she hoped to receive more guidance from them in the future.

But Barbara didn't seem to be able to drink much. After drinking, her face turned red and her eyes became watery. She just looked at her sister and smiled.

After the meal, everyone drank tea and chatted together, enjoying a pleasant and comfortable time.

Qin is almost reluctant to go back to work.

But no way.

Amber went to Liuyun and borrowed a new type of Wind Wing for Yura.

Afterwards, everyone bid farewell and left, departing from Chengehu.

Noelle helped the unsteady Barbara back to her room in the church to rest.

Walking down the street, Lisa touched her lower abdomen and sighed, "Mr. Xia's cooking is so delicious, I can't help but eat too much every time."

Qin nodded in agreement: "Yes, I also feel a bit full."

Yura glanced at Qin and said, "Commander Qin, you should pay attention to exercising. Unlike me, I'm often out on missions. You're always sitting in the office without moving. Be careful not to get fat."

Qin suddenly laughed and said, "Thank you for reminding me, but I'm not worried about this kind of thing."

Yura raised an eyebrow: "Oh?"

Qin said, "Yura, you don't know this yet, do you? Mr. Xia's massage skills are also excellent."

"Massage? So, what does that have to do with what I'm talking about?"

"Mr. Xia has a special massage technique that can help with weight loss."

"! Is that even possible?"

Yura was somewhat surprised.

Lisa, on the other hand, looked thoughtful.

She remembered something: the last time Qin came to see her, she asked about the massage parlors in Xumi, and even asked if she had tried aromatherapy massage, male masseurs, or anything like that...

At the time, she thought Qin was just asking casually.

Thinking back now, Qin probably already received a massage from Mr. Xia back then, right?

Lisa used to study at Xumi University and often stayed up late to do her research. After working at her desk for a long time, she would feel back pain and would go to a massage parlor with her classmates to relax. However, she would only accept services from female masseuses.
