Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1205 - 1206: Extend an Invitation
Chapter 1205: Chapter 1206: Extend an Invitation
Little Husky lay on Big Cat’s head, wagging its tail and using its paws to hold a cellphone, yawning as it looked at the messages on the screen. Meanwhile, Qi Xiaoshuang had completely let loose, leaning against the White Wolf Deity and continuously sending messages on her phone while sneakily snapping photos of the White Wolf Deity. Qi Chen felt somewhat helpless about this, but since Feng Yuan didn’t say anything, he didn’t bother to intervene with Qi Xiaoshuang.
After all, having interacted with so many Divine Beasts through Feng Yuan, he knew that these Divine Beasts were actually quite amiable. Though they might not care for strangers, they wouldn’t get angry over some impolite behavior from them, especially since the White Wolf Deity clearly wasn’t upset.
"The White Wolf Deity is leaving soon, so if you want to take a picture with him, you’d better hurry."
Remembering something, Little Husky glanced at Qi Xiaoshuang and said. Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Qi Xiaoshuang was startled but only gently stroked the White Wolf Deity’s soft long fur and didn’t do anything else. After all, she had already taken all the photos she wanted earlier and was now just looking to enjoy the time with the White Wolf Deity while she could.
Why she liked the White Wolf Deity so much, Qi Xiaoshuang didn’t fully understand herself. Was it because he had appeared before her when she was helpless? Or was it something else... With that thought, Qi Xiaoshuang hugged the White Wolf Deity and gradually fell asleep.
"Wake up, it’s late. Go take a shower and go to sleep in your room. He has his own things to do."
In a daze, Qi Xiaoshuang felt someone pushing her. After rubbing her eyes, she looked at Qi Chen, not processing for a moment. Moments later, after seeing the White Wolf Deity with closed eyes lying next to her, she remembered Feng Yuan mentioning that the White Wolf Deity had to go help with guardian Divine Beast matters. Looking up at the clock, she realized it was already eleven o’clock.
In a hurry, she got up and kept apologizing to the White Wolf Deity. The deity just glanced at Qi Xiaoshuang and didn’t react much, seeming to consider this matter of little consequence to him. Looking around, she noticed that Little Husky had fallen asleep on Big Cat’s head at some point, and the cellphone that was previously in its paws had fallen to the floor. Whether it was broken or not was a mystery.
Xiao Ji looked on with some envy. Sadly, its appearance meant that even if Feng Yuan transformed into a Little Husky’s shape, he wouldn’t be able to lay on its head like laying on Big Cat’s.
"You... aren’t going to wake him?"
Looking at the sleeping Little Husky whose tail was not moving, Qi Xiaoshuang asked Qi Chen with some confusion, to which he simply shook his head and whispered,
"No need, he doesn’t plan to go anywhere tomorrow. No need to bother with him."
Unless they needed to get up early for class the next day like before, it really wasn’t necessary to care about when Feng Yuan rested. On the other hand, Qi Xiaoshuang was facing the middle school exams soon, and he wondered how well-prepared she was. But then he thought she would probably do better than he did in his time. Qi Chen was clear that Qi Xiaoshuang was much smarter than himself, and it wouldn’t be strange at all if she got into a better school.
The White Wolf Deity stood up, shook its body, and with a light swipe of its paw, a space gate burning with pure white Flames opened. Looking back at Qi Xiaoshuang, the White Wolf Deity picked up a pitch-black Ancient Book and leaped into the space gate, disappearing from view.
Seeing the White Wolf Deity leave, Qi Xiaoshuang sighed. Although she had long known the White Wolf Deity would leave soon, facing reality still made her feel a bit reluctant.
"Is it really such a big deal that it appeared in a few more places?"
While eating breakfast and watching the news, Feng Yuan glanced in surprise at the White Wolf Deity’s appearances shown on the screen, questioning its oddity. The White Wolf Deity was not a particularly famous Divine Beast, so was there a need for such astonishment?
Glancing at Feng Yuan, Qi Chen said helplessly,
"After all, it’s unnatural for it to show up in so many places in such a short time. It would make anyone suspicious."
The White Wolf Deity’s visits to so many cities overnight naturally aroused the curiosity of ordinary people, as Divine Beasts usually didn’t show themselves directly in front of mortals often, let alone this previously seldom-seen White Wolf Deity. It was unclear what had happened to make the White Wolf Deity visit so many places in one night.
Of course, the local Special Duty Team knew the truth, but they weren’t going to disclose it. Doing so would mean revealing secrets, and although the most important items had already been taken by the White Wolf Deity, one could never guarantee that others wouldn’t still harbor special regards for the Ancient Ruins, potentially causing enmity later on. Besides, it wasn’t something to discuss openly as it didn’t greatly impact ordinary people.
"Shall we prepare for camping today?"
While eating breakfast, Feng Yuan looked at Qi Chen and asked. Qi Chen glanced at him puzzledly but shook his head and replied, freewebnσvel.cѳm
"Don’t you already have plenty?"
He remembered that Feng Yuan had stockpiled a load of supplies at some point, including various camping equipment. It was unclear what he was planning with so much stuff stored away, and where he had kept them now, but Qi Chen vaguely remembered from their school days that Feng Yuan seemed to have them stashed in a rented warehouse.
"There is some, but I’m not sure if anything has expired."
Feng Yuan received a speechless glance from Qi Chen, who simply ignored him. Those items were various camping equipment, not perishable food that could have such a short shelf life, not to mention that with Agunas and Veronia by his side, their abilities should be more than capable of handling most situations, making camping gear unnecessary.
"I almost forgot, they asked me to tell you yesterday that Old Shen might be looking for you, and they hope you won’t refuse."
Remembering something, Qi Chen said to Feng Yuan, who, puzzled by Qi Chen’s remark, asked in confusion,
"Old Shen? Who is that?"
"Master Shen Weiguo, he seems to want to discuss border affairs with you," replied Qi Chen after recalling. He didn’t quite understand why there was a need to discuss border affairs with Feng Yuan, wasn’t he unable to intervene in border wars? And when it comes to intelligence, it’s not like Feng Yuan can surpass the military anyway, right?
"What a restless man,"
Feng Yuan rolled his eyes and said speechlessly. Without asking, he could guess what Shen Weiguo wanted to inquire about—probably the looming crisis at the border. But what good could he possibly do? Not to mention the lack of evidence for now, even if there were, wouldn’t it be more troublesome if Nierlat interfered without hesitation?
However, perhaps the other party had some interesting proposal? After thinking it over, Feng Yuan wasn’t opposed. Besides, meeting up wouldn’t hurt, and if he really didn’t want to do something, no one could force him.
After some thought, Feng Yuan took out his phone to call Liao Yu. Since he had some time, he might as well take the initiative to find out what the man truly intended to do.
"Haha, I actually thought you would ask me to go to your house to discuss matters with you."
Inside Shen Weiguo’s shop, Shen Weiguo laughed heartily at Feng Yuan. But no one really knew what he was thinking. Rolling his eyes, Feng Yuan said in annoyance,
"Invite you to my house? Wouldn’t that be more troublesome? You’re well aware of your identity. Showing up at my house would likely draw even more attention to him."
After all, this elder’s status was no less than Granny Mianlan’s. Him visiting Qi Chen’s house? People who didn’t think much of it would probably start having special thoughts about Qi Chen. Given that Feng Yuan already had a special status and was on good terms with him, and now even the former commander of the Southern Region of Great Xia was visiting his house, what would those who were indifferent towards Feng Yuan think?
"What exactly do you want from me? You should know I can’t directly interfere with the border wars. If you’re hoping for me to take action, I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed,"
Feng Yuan said earnestly to Shen Weiguo. Although he respected the latter, he couldn’t ignore potential issues and help, which was simply not possible. Moreover, even if he did, the outcome might not be something Shen Weiguo would like to see.
With a sigh, Shen Weiguo said with a wry smile,
"Of course I know that. If only you weren’t restricted... that would be wonderful."
"Forget it, if that were the case, I doubt I could stay in any country at all,"
Giving Shen Weiguo a sidelong glance, Feng Yuan said irritably. An unrestricted killing machine? Even if Great Xia dared to harbor him, would other nations allow Great Xia to possess such a terrifying trump card? Even the Alliance probably wouldn’t dare to shelter him.
"This..."
Upon hearing what Feng Yuan said, Shen Weiguo quickly understood the reasons and, feeling somewhat embarrassed, apologized to Feng Yuan before asking,
"What could be done if, let’s say, I intend to redirect the enemy’s attacks back into their own territory?"
He believed Feng Yuan should have a way, but upon hearing his question, the complexion of Agunas changed.
