Chapter 304 You've Become Attractive to Me
Yae no Miko hadn't expected that the two people who should have had no contact at all would have formed a grudge at some point. She smiled and stopped talking, watching to see how Xu Ning would respond.
Xu Ning is quite single.
"Hey, don't make accusations without any evidence! I don't even know if your front door faces east or west, how could I possibly fire a cannon at you!"
The stragglers coldly replied, "To the west."
Xu Ning was taken aback. Wasn't it facing east?
Holy crap, is this guy trying to scam me?
Xu Ning quickly put on a blank expression, "I didn't fire in any direction. I've never fired a cannon in my entire life."
The soldier's lips twitched slightly, and the lightning at his fingertips couldn't help but flicker.
However, after glancing at the Eightfold Divine Child beside Xu Ning, he forcibly suppressed his urge to take action.
Seeing that there seemed to be no excitement to watch, Yae no Miko was slightly disappointed.
"For the sake of our past relationship, I'm giving you a piece of advice: don't cause any trouble here. She's been watching. If you go too far, even if she has some sympathy, she'll still kill you without hesitation."
Xu Ning naturally discerned the different meanings of the two "she"s in the Eightfold Divine Child's words.
The stragglers in front of him were created by Lei Ying himself. As a failed work, Ying felt somewhat guilty towards it.
However, if General Raiden is after Inazuma's eternal life, he will not care whether the person in front of him is his "senior" or "brother," and he will show no mercy when it is time to take action.
Xu Ning already knew this principle, so there was no reason why the stragglers couldn't understand it.
He reached out and tapped the Heart of God in Yae no Miko's hand. "Give me that, and I will leave Inazuma immediately and never come back."
Yae no Miko held the exquisite little "toy" and asked Xu Ning, "Get rid of a useless burden and give Inazuma some peace and quiet. I think this is a worthwhile deal. What do you think?"
Xu Ning poured himself a sip of wine and said nonchalantly, "If you have no objections, then naturally I have even less to object to."
Xu Ning naturally knew what the skirmishers wanted to do with the Heart of Thor, but he wasn't too worried about it.
Anyway, whatever this guy eats, he'll spit out too.
What really concerned Xu Ning was Yae no Kami's attitude.
The mysterious chief priest's seemingly casual handling of the situation seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally propelling the wheels of history forward at an accelerated pace.
How much she knew about that vague future, and how much she understood about the truth of this world, was a complete mystery to Xu Ning.
"Hmph, I thought you were like this guy, coming to Inazuma for this reason, but I didn't expect you to be so indifferent. I miscalculated."
Yae no Miko glared at Xu Ning and snorted coldly, then tossed the Thunder God's Heart in his hand to the stragglers.
"I've given you Shadow's Heart of God, so she owes you nothing more. Now, you may leave!"
The soldier caught Thor's Heart, feeling the irregular rhythm of the lightning within his palm, and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Finally, I've obtained it: turned my dreams upside down, removed the causes in my heart, and rewritten my destiny... rewritten my destiny..."
As the stragglers departed, the delirious laughter gradually faded into the empty hall.
Yae no Miko shook her head, muttered "Poor guy," and then looked at Xu Ning with a half-smile.
"Now that he's gone, you can tell the truth. Tell me, you didn't hand over the Heart of God because you were afraid you couldn't beat that guy, did you?"
Xu Ning shrugged. "We haven't even fought, how do you know I can't win? Besides, I have so many helpers, why would I be afraid of him, a lone wolf?"
"It's just that since the Heart of God is not my own, I have no right to make decisions for you."
After saying this, Xu Ning saw Yae no Miko staring at him with great interest, as if trying to see into his heart through her eyes.
Feeling somewhat uncomfortable being stared at like that by the vixen, Xu Ning quickly took a sip of wine to cover up his embarrassment.
"Alright, I believe you. Hold the gourd steady, I need to go back to my book. Rinko Hanekawa just awakened a new skill..."
Just as Yae no Miko entered the cave, a commotion arose outside the house.
"Xu Ning! Xu Ning! Are you in there? Why aren't you making a sound?"
Hokuto walked in carrying the Black Rock Blade, with Kaede Manba beside him, his brows furrowed.
Xu Ning looked at them and smiled, "You guys arrived pretty quickly."
Beidou laughed and said, "We've made a fortune this time! All the crystallized bone marrow that Inazuma has mined over the past few years is here! Such a terrifying amount! Black Rock Factory will definitely offer a good price for it."
"I was also startled when I came in. It's highly likely that all of this was funded by that old geezer from the Hiiragi family."
Hearing Xu Ning say this, Beidou felt even less burdened.
"If it's something we've decided to take, we might as well take it. This isn't a good place, so let's all work harder and load it onto the ship as soon as possible so we can set off."
A chorus of responses came from outside the Dead Star crew.
"Just as we were getting close to here, we saw a kid with a big brim running out of here, laughing like a king. Could it be that he got there first and snatched some treasure? We don't know if we can catch up with him now?"
"You guys saw that guy!"
Xu Ning chuckled. "Didn't you just take away the most precious treasure here?"
After all, it is the heart of God!
"The way that person looked at me... was very strange!" Kaedehara Manyo, who had been frowning, suddenly said.
"People who can laugh like that usually have some kind of problem, and it's normal for their eyes to look strange. Stop thinking about it and go help your brothers."
Beidou sent Fengyuan Manyo to move the boxes and was about to leave when he suddenly turned back to look at Xu Ning and said strangely, "Why do you seem a little different?"
Xu Ning was a little confused and asked blankly, "What have I become...?"
Beidou reached out to Xu Ning, but before they could touch, a thin bolt of lightning suddenly connected their palms.
"It's becoming more attractive to me, hehe!"
Listening to this unique description that sounded like sweet nothings, and watching the electric sparks dancing between their fingers, Xu Ning seemed to suddenly realize something and turned the gourd around.
On the dragon pattern on the front of the Dust-Hidden Gourd, a triple Raiba pattern is slowly emerging at the center of the raised left claw.
"This...this isn't right. Wasn't the Heart of Thor taken by the Scattered Soldiers? How could the power of the Thunder Element have evolved in the Dust Concealment Grotto? Did the Eightfold Divine Child feed himself to the dragon head on the Wine Spring?"
Shaking off the strange and terrifying thought that suddenly arose, Xu Ning immediately put away the Dust Concealment Gourd and entered the cave.
