Ke Qing looked at the beautiful handwriting on the note, her face full of questions again.
"Mr. Xia, what is the meaning of this 'godfather'?"
"It doesn't have any special meaning, I just wrote it casually for fun, similar to Master Xia's instant noodles."
"Oh."
Ke Qing carefully put the two jars into her spatial storage. After chatting for a while, Hu Tao brought her the organized documents, then got up to say goodbye and returned to the construction site.
Having nothing to do in the afternoon, I played mahjong at the shop.
Later that evening, Xia Zhi took out the cherry blossoms, prepared the dough, and everyone sat together to make cherry blossom cakes.
Just like when making mooncakes, the main thing is to create an atmosphere.
Grandma Ping happily joined in. She was quite skillful, and the pancakes she made looked delicate and elegant, even more beautiful than those made by Zhu Zi, a native of Daocheng.
Of course, the most beautiful cherry blossom mochi was made by Xia Zhi.
The smooth, round cake is surrounded by the faint aroma of cherry blossoms, and its beautiful shape holds a fleeting beauty within it.
Taking a sip, the unique fragrance of cherry blossoms lingers on your lips and teeth, as if you have returned to the moment when the cherry blossoms fluttered down.
Zhu Zi was probably homesick; she held the half-eaten biscuit and her eyes welled up with tears.
"Senior Zhu Zi, are you alright?"
"Well, it's delicious."
Zhu Zi took another bite and laughed through her tears.
"The boss made it for the first time, and it tasted even better than my mom's."
Xia Ci patted her on the shoulder.
"It's okay, maybe you'll dream about your mom and dad tonight."
At the same time, Xia Zhi sensed a fluctuation of dream power, and he couldn't help but "look" in this direction.
My cousin is quite gentle.
Then, Xia Zhi looked at Grandma Ping.
Just a moment ago, Grandma Ping also glanced at her cousin.
I never expected that True Lord Ge Chenlang would be so perceptive...
Or is it because she practiced the art of dreams?
Shen He said that her "Dream Travel Technique" came from Grandma Ping, who must have practiced it as well.
But in that brief moment, Shen He didn't seem to notice anything unusual.
In other words, Granny Ping's cultivation of dream manipulation techniques should be far more advanced than Shen He's...
Xia Zhi looked at Grandma Ping, who was eating the Scarlet Cherry Blossom Cake with a kind expression, and recalled the conversation he had with Qi Liangliang about the transformation of demons and spirits at noon that day. He couldn't help but ponder this.
Gan Yu's appearance has remained unchanged for thousands of years, and Granny Ping's cultivation level is even higher than Gan Yu's, so there's no reason for her to have aged so much.
Moreover, according to Akabane, it seems that Grandma Ping has always looked the same since she can remember, and has never aged.
So it seems that Granny Ping deliberately presented herself in this appearance; she must have used some kind of magic to conceal her true appearance.
He was a little curious.
In the room at night.
Xia Zhi sat down at his desk and took out the [Mirror of Illusion].
A mirror has three characteristics: [dispelling illusions], [seeing another world], and [foreknowledge].
Xia Zhi didn't use it much, only using it a few times when saving the Great Compassion Tree King.
Now he plans to try another property of the mirror—[dispelling falsehoods]: it can see through falsehoods.
Grandma Ping's image appeared in the mirror.
"Grandma Ping's true appearance."
The image on the mirror flickered slightly.
Subsequently, an elegant and sophisticated blue-haired woman replaced the original old lady.
Xia Zhi "looked" at the mirror and fell silent.
With such a tall and slender figure, it seems, perhaps, maybe, it's possible that I should have given her a beautiful dress as a birthday present last time...
Pity.

Xia Zhi looked at Ping-jie in the mirror for a while.
Then I asked the old man about it.
"What kind of magic is she using?"
"【Radiant Glow and Illusory Beauty】".
Xia Zhiwei was slightly taken aback.
He remembered that he hadn't actually learned this skill from Grandma Ping.
But the name of this skill looks very familiar.
Xia Zhi thought about it carefully, and with his photographic memory, he quickly recalled the relevant memories.
He then opened the system panel and entered the skills page.
Some of the skills were borrowed from Zhongli, including various Geo-type divine spells and normal Geo-type skills, as well as all sorts of miscellaneous magical arts and passive skills.
Xia Zhi hadn't used it much, but he had browsed through it out of curiosity once.
A moment later, he found the skill in the skill list.
【Radiant Glow】: With the help of the radiant glow, one's appearance can change unpredictably.
Advanced disguise techniques...
Morax has now transformed into Zhongli's appearance, presumably using this skill as well.
Later on, I can transform into Morax's appearance and use his skills to smash people.
Xia Zhi swiped through the skill panel and saw another skill: [Music Master].
He remembered that he had secretly learned this from Grandma Ping.
Although most of the immortals' magical arts were taught by the Emperor, some were unique to them, such as the divination skills of the True Lord of Moon-Shaving and Sun-Building, and the musical skills of Granny Ping.
Grandma Ping's immortal title is Ge Chenlang City True Lord, which contains the character "Ge" (歌), likely indicating that she is skilled in this art.
Xia Zhi turned off the system panel and then looked down at the mirror.
"Look at the sacred cherry tree in Inazuma."
The image on the mirror flickered slightly.
A gigantic cherry blossom tree appeared in the mirror. Although it was already autumn, many crimson cherry blossoms were still blooming on the branches.
"What's wrong with the shape of this tree...?"
Xia Zhi couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
"...Why does it look like a big fox?"
He gently stroked the mirror with his finger, and a sentence immediately appeared on the mirror: "Made by Narukami Shrine".
"I see... What a strange interest..."
Xia Zhi slid her finger back and forth on the mirror, rotating and zooming the image.
After observing the cherry tree carefully for a while, he found it interesting and beautiful, but he didn't notice anything else unusual.
Xia Zhi directly asked the mirror, "Why do the cherry blossoms of the Divine Cherry Tree contain fluctuations of the power of the laws of time?"
This time, the mirror did not give an answer immediately, but fell silent, as if it was trying to foresee the future.
After a while, a sentence slowly appeared on the mirror.
"This is a sacred cherry tree planted in the future and grown in the past."
"The seeds sown in the future bear the fruit in the past?"
Xia Zhi lowered his head and pondered.
"It's actually a product of time reversal; no wonder its flowers fluctuate with the power of the time laws. Who planted it in the future?"
"Barzebu".
"And what is the purpose of planting it?"
"To remove the abyssal power that invaded Inazuma in the past, and to grow into a miracle tree that protects all people."
"As the God of Thunder, Balzeb wields the laws of lightning. Where did she obtain the power of the laws of time?"
The mirror fell silent for a long time once again, just like a slow internet connection that makes web pages take forever to load.
