She has a clear understanding of herself: she is a virtuous wife who manages the mundane affairs.
This made Xu Guang a little embarrassed.
After coughing twice, he walked over to the Great Tree King and sat down next to him.
The Great Compassion Tree King looked at Xu Guang with a gentle expression.
"What's matter?"
She was the previous goddess of grass, the goddess of wisdom, and the gentlest of gods.
In terms of personality, she is more like a mother.
To some people with unusual fetishes, this is simply perfect.
Xu Guang simply doesn't care.
He looked at the other person, propping his head up with one hand: "Can't I contact you if there's nothing wrong?"
"Of course it is possible."
The Great Tree King chuckled softly, then reached out and touched Xu Guang's forehead.
"I was just thinking about how I could help you because you were frowning."
Xu Guang felt the coldness of the other person's fingertips, and his heart was stirred.
He shook his head and smiled, saying, "I have no problem; you're the one with the problem."
The Great Compassion Tree King asked in confusion, "Me?"
Xu Guang nodded.
"That's right, do you still remember the Red King?"
The god who rules the Great Red Sand Sea, known as the "Red King".
The Tree King and the Flower Goddess were allies, and the three had a close relationship. Later, the Flower Goddess sacrificed her life to create an opportunity for the Red King to peek into forbidden knowledge, after which the Tree King and the Red King parted ways.
A thousand years ago, the Crimson King brought forbidden knowledge, but he was unable to control it, causing it to spread like a plague.
Along with this came the Dead Zone and the Demon Scale Disease.
In a sense, you can think of this knowledge as a virus; if left unchecked, it will cause various forms of rejection in Teyvat, leading to the world's disintegration.
Disaster was inevitable, and in order to protect the people, the Tree King overdrawn his power and transformed into a child.
Although Xu Guang had reason to believe that the Mi family was being lazy and didn't want to create a model of the Great Compassion Tree King, since they had already said so, he couldn't dwell on it.
The Great Tree King was silent for a moment, then asked with concern, "Red King... what's wrong?"
As a former ally, she knew him well and knew that he was very extreme and stubborn.
Xu Guang said calmly, "He is indeed dead, but his contaminated body was eaten by Apep, so Apep's condition is not very good. There is a risk of him getting out of control, and he may very well do something that no one wants to see."
Apep is the Grass Dragon King of Sumeru.
The original continent of Teyvat was jointly ruled by seven elemental dragon kings. Although Apep is not one of the seven dragon kings, it is still an ancient entity, and in terms of seniority, it is even older than the seven gods.
The principles of creation came from outside the world and gained the right to reshape Teyvat through the War of Creation, thus laying the foundation for what followed.
Although the dragons lost, they kept thinking about how to fight back.
As the oldest living dragon, Apep's thirst for revenge has never been extinguished.
So it devoured the Red King's corrupted corpse and decided to use the power of corruption to fight against the laws of nature.
The Great Tree King's expression was not very pleasant upon hearing Xu Guang's words.
She longed for stability and hoped that the people could live a peaceful and happy life.
She also understood that if the grass dragon were to completely lose control, it would be a devastating disaster, making the Dead Zone and the Demon Scale Disease seem much more adorable in comparison.
Chapter 254: Madam, you don't want this either.
"Madam, you wouldn't want this either..."
Xu Guang blurted out these words, mainly out of habit.
The Great Tree King shook his head: "I'm not married yet..."
She was a goddess, and one can imagine how picky she would be about her partner. That's why she was single throughout her life, and the little grass goddess Narcida was also created by her through her divine power.
Xu Guang waved his hand, indicating that the other party did not need to say anything more.
This attribute doesn't necessarily mean marriage; anyone with a gentle personality and an older sister vibe can be included.
The main reason is that some people prefer the other person to be married, because they feel a sense of immorality.
Xu Guang wasn't interested in these things, but Mrs. Kamisato was another story.
She's considered a widow.
Xu Guang continued, "Since you mind, is it alright for me to call you Madam?"
The Great Compassion Tree King paused for a moment, feeling that the other party was somewhat fixated on this matter.
However, she wasn't the type to get caught up in such trivialities. She nodded, accepting the title.
Xu Guang nodded and asked with a smile, "Then, Madam, you don't want your painstakingly created Sumeru to be destroyed in an instant, do you?"
The Great Tree King blinked as she watched the other party's expression change. She had a premonition that the other party was leading her to a certain place, and she could guess the purpose.
The idea is to have her play some kind of role in order to increase the stimulation.
After the Great Tree King understood, a gentle sadness appeared on his face.
"Yes, but what can I do now?"
As she spoke, her eyes reddened.
It's almost pitiful to see it paired with this G-Class.
Of course, Xu Guang wasn't concerned about the headlights; he just didn't understand why so many people liked Mercedes-Benz. He was too poor to have ever experienced one.
So I was very curious.
The Great Tree King noticed the other person's gaze; she wasn't some sheltered fledgling.
As the goddess of wisdom, she can confidently say that she has a broad knowledge of most of the knowledge on the continent of Teyvat.
So she raised her hand and crossed her arms to block her chest.
She was already dead, so being able to come back to life was beyond her expectations.
If she could sacrifice something in exchange for the peaceful life of the people of Xumi, then she would be willing.
If you look at it that way, the Great Tree King really does meet the standards of a wife.
First, she has headlights; second, she has something to hold against her; then she has headlights again and is willing to pay any price for that; finally, she has a **face**.
Of course, unlike Shadow, who is all looks and no substance, the Great Tree King is excellent in every way, not only in personality but also in all other aspects.
Compared to her, even the young widow of the Kamisato family paled in comparison.
And the most important thing.
The Great Compassion Tree King is very knowledgeable.
She knows exactly what she wants; she's no longer at the point where she can just switch to automatic mode on a whim. In fact, she goes even further to satisfy him in every way.
At the same time, it will reflect what this identity should have according to his needs.
For example, if Xu Guang wanted to play with a maid one day, she would obediently put on a maid outfit, call out "Master" gently in the entryway, then turn around, lift her skirt, and ask if she wanted to eat first, take a bath first, or...
Or if he wants to mess with a student, she'll put on a blue and white sailor uniform, squat down with a bewildered look on her face, and open her mouth.
For example, if Xu Guang considers the other party to be a wife, then the Great Compassion Tree King will exhibit the gentleness and tenderness that a weak woman should possess.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, stepped forward and grabbed the hand of the Great Tree King, his eyes filled with evil.
"Of course, Madam can save Sumeru; it just depends on how far you can go."
The Great Tree King struggled for a moment, seemingly resisting, but finally gave up, letting the other's claws climb up, its face flushed.
"Mr. Xu Guang...I don't quite understand..."
Xu Guang looked up at the status bar above the other person's head and chuckled.
If it were any of the characters he had ever played, the other party wouldn't have been able to do that.
It has to be the god of wisdom.
He pressed himself against it, felt the headlights of the G-Class a couple of times, and was genuinely impressed.
No wonder rich people like to buy Mercedes-Benz; they're quite something.
The first impression it gives after being attached is not softness, but a powerful suction force, comparable to the third generation of the dead.
Xu Guang sighed.
She has the potential to become a juice-making queen.
If he hadn't experienced it so deeply here, he probably would have thought the strange proportions in those comics were fake.
The Great Tree King trembled slightly.
This is not pretending.
She does indeed possess a great deal of knowledge and knows how to use it when needed.
But that doesn't mean she's a seasoned veteran. As a newbie who's older than Xianyun, she's also more sensitive.
Some people might find this contradictory, but think about it carefully: do you know anyone who is knowledgeable about relationships and can make others smile when they tell a joke, but becomes completely flustered when they meet someone of the opposite sex?
It seems there's no difference between the two.
Xu Guang continued his movements, opening and closing his index and middle fingers to clamp them together.
If the Great Tree King hadn't been sitting on the grass, it probably would have collapsed long ago.
At the same time, a thought popped into my mind.
No wonder the common people like this kind of thing; it seems to bring a kind of pleasure that other things don't.
You should know that in large libraries, besides various knowledge classics and entertainment stories, the most borrowed books every year are those about Liu Bei.
She didn't understand what was so fun about these things before, but after experiencing them firsthand, she realized that her mind was blank, all her worries and unhappiness were shaken off, leaving only her body's most instinctive reactions.
That is a creature's most basic desire.
Xu Guang stood up, went behind the Great Compassion Tree King, and placed it on the vertical grip.
smile.
"Madam, the next step will take place soon, and your reaction will determine how I help Xumi."
He wasn't lying. The grass dragon was indeed corrupted by forbidden knowledge, but in the story, it hadn't completely lost its mind and still retained the pride of being an ancient dragon.
It will readily admit its serious illness, hide its claws, and endure the pain.
However, similarly, if forbidden knowledge is left unchecked, it will inevitably run rampant, and when it spreads throughout Teyvat, the world will be destroyed.
Like a school of fish that can no longer find a clean pond.
However, Nasita and the blond traveler will take care of these matters.
But the Great Compassion Tree King was unaware of this.
She was in a dream world, and her only source of information was Xu Guang.
Therefore, a lie that can be believed must be mixed with the truth.
The Great Compassion Tree King knew about the Red King's situation and the Grass Dragon's obsession. She could foresee that tragic future, which is why she was willing to do something after hearing Xu Guang's words.
Xu Guang held onto the car headlight with one hand and walked down the tree king's navel with the other.
Chapter 255: The Illusionary Dragon is Also a Dragon
The Great Compassion Tree King leaned weakly against Xu Guang's chest. She could feel something raising its head.
Looking down, I noticed a bulge in my skirt, and heat radiated from it.
She knew what was going to happen next, but she was neither afraid nor expectant.
Or rather, the Great Compassion Tree King remained calm throughout; his physical reactions were genuine, but his will remained clear.
If doing this could benefit Sumeru, why would she refuse?
