I'm a male god in Liyue

"That's wonderful! Professor Mona has worked so hard. How about I treat you to dinner at Liuli Pavilion tomorrow after you submit your manuscript?"

"it is good!"

After leaving the glass pavilion, Mona parted ways with Charlotte and headed towards her residence.

Because she didn't have much money, Mona was staying in a shared hostel in the port area, the kind of cheap single room that Zhu Zi had stayed in before.

We were going to pass through Xiaoshi on the way.

As night fell, Mona walked through the bustling streets, pondering how best to begin writing her first horoscope column.

After all, this is related to her future quality of life.

If the first month's draft doesn't receive a good response, her contract with the newspaper will be terminated immediately.

"We need to think of a topic that will generate buzz, such as what Liyue is most concerned about right now..."

Mona stopped and looked at the huge, still-under-construction "Mingxiao Lantern" on the dock.

Although it is not yet finished, the outline of a woman can already be vaguely seen.

It is said that the design for this year's "Mingxiao Lantern" is based on Bingxin Wuchen Zhenjun, a disciple of Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun. She defeated Ba Che single-handedly in the battle of Guyun Pavilion some time ago and can lift the Mingxia Fusheng Stone, which is the size of a small mountain, with one hand. She is also the female lead in the play "Shennv Piguan".

"How about we use this Pure Heart Without Dust True Monarch as a starting point to conduct divination and analysis on her... No, no... Such an action is ultimately somewhat offensive, and carries a hint of disrespect for the immortal master..."

Mona shook her head to herself, continuing to ponder as she walked back to the hostel.

Upon entering, she saw a stack of Liyue Newspapers on the front desk.

"Boss, can I borrow these newspapers to read?"

"Yes, they're all old newspapers. Feel free to take any and read them."

"Thank you very much."

Mona took the newspaper back to her small room, read it carefully, and her expression slowly became strange.

"I didn't expect the rumors about Lady Ningguang and the owner of Summer Shop to be so popular... Wait, Lady Ningguang is of high rank and power, so it's not suitable to use her for divination, but this owner of Summer Shop should just be an ordinary person. Wouldn't it be great to use him as a starting point for discussion?"

"But we can't rule out the possibility that he really has some kind of relationship with Lady Ningguang..."

"Furthermore, it's not good to publicly release an ordinary person's divination information so casually; it will bring him a lot of trouble..."

"Ugh, this is so annoying..."

"Why don't we just divine the weather for the next week? Liyue Harbor is by the sea, so most people are probably quite concerned about the weather at sea. I'll teach everyone how to use astrology to predict the weather; I think quite a few people will be interested..."

Mona took out her astronomical compass and divined the future celestial phenomena before burying herself in writing.

After finishing writing, Mona revised it carefully one more time before finally putting the manuscript away with satisfaction.

It was already late at night.

"I can go to Liuli Pavilion for dinner again tomorrow, I'm so excited... I read in the newspaper that the rainbow juice at the summer shop is delicious, but it's a bit pricey, and I'm broke right now... Luckily, my royalties are paid weekly, so I'll go to that shop and try it out when they come in a couple of days. Speaking of which, just how charming is the owner of that shop? He actually managed to have a scandal with Lady Ningguang..."

Mona was quite curious, so she took the divination star and tried to divine information about the shop owner in the summer.

The divination results showed that the other person's fate was very ordinary, belonging to the kind of destiny that was unremarkable.

Mona felt very disappointed.

Because the other party doesn't even have the Eye of God, how can they be worthy of the Heavenly Power Condensation?

The rumors in the newspapers are definitely false.

Forget it, let's find some other fun.

She picked up the divination tablet and tried to divine the information of the Ice Heart Dust True Lord.

Some strange celestial images flashed across the planet: a solitary, blood-red star.

Mona's eyes widened involuntarily.

"This immortal's fate is terrifying! How could there be such a dangerous fate in the world..."

Just then, a white flash of lightning streaked across the window, followed by a rumble of thunder.

Mona looked up and froze.

"How could that be! Didn't my divination just show that the next week will be sunny?"

--

Summer shops.

In the bedroom on the second floor.

Shen He, dressed in pajamas, sat quietly on the bed.

Xia Zhi is preparing to resolve her problems.

He first opened the [Shop], bought a bottle of [Lucky Potion], and drank it directly.

[Lucky Potion]

Quality: Gold.

Type: Consumable.

Characteristic: Luck.

Effect: Within one hour of drinking, luck is temporarily increased by 100%.

Hidden effects: None.

Then, Xia Zhi began to form a series of hand seals towards Shen He.

This is the "Red Rope Soul Binding" Taoist technique that he learned from several immortals.

The conditions for using this method are very strict, especially the timing.

As Xia Zhi cast his spell, a phantom soul began to appear on Shen He's body.

Above this soul, countless bright red ropes, like chains, tightly bound it.

It looks a bit astringent.

"untie."

The next moment, all the red ropes vanished as if ice and snow had melted away.

"Warning: Due to the influence of [Outbreak of the Lone Star], the host's luck value has decreased by 90%."

At the same time, Xia Zhi heard several muffled thuds, like heavy objects hitting the ground, coming from other rooms.

That's because someone was unlucky enough to accidentally fall off the bed.

Outside the window, the sounds of passersby suddenly slipping and falling, crying out in pain, could be heard from the street.

Then, lightning suddenly struck the night sky, and thunder began to boom...

Shen He blinked, looking at Xia Zhi with a somewhat innocent expression: "Boss..."

Xia Zhi comforted her, "It's okay."

He opened the [Shop] again and bought another item from it.

Seven-Star Lamp

Quality: Platinum.

Type: Disposable prop.

Characteristics: Reflects the void, alters fate.

Effect: When used on a target, it can modify their existing destiny.

Hidden effects: None.

Price: 1600 points.

Xia Zhi took out the Seven Star Lamp, which looked like seven strange and ancient little lamps.

He chose to use Shen He.

Seven strange little lamps flew out and, arranged in the order of the Big Dipper, lit up suddenly in front of Shen He, shining brightly.

Then, under the light of the small lamp, a star chart resembling a lonely comb appeared above Shen He's head.

This is Shen He's destiny seat—the Sorrowful Seat.

In the starry sky of this world, there is also a constellation exactly the same as it, corresponding to the fate of Shenhe Guchen Jiesha.

This is also the principle behind astrology.

Astrologers learn about people's predetermined fate by observing their zodiac signs.

Xia Zhi looked at the star chart above Shen He's head, pondered for a moment, and then reached out his hand.

The originally illusory Destiny Seat, illuminated by the light of the Seven Star Lamp, became as if it were real, and Xia Zhi could easily touch it.

Just like playing with pebbles in a sandbox, Xia Zhi scrambled Chou Shu Zuo and then rearranged it to create a completely new destiny seat.

"All right."

Xia Zhi withdrew her finger.

The light of the Seven Star Lamp went out and mysteriously disappeared.
