Genshin Impact: The cutest demon!

Chapter 23 Outlying Island (Page 12)

Hu Zhai Palace and Chu Yue went north along the White Fox Wilderness and came to a small village.

After passing a cherry blossom tree, they sat down in a corner of the village.

There is a stone pier and four small benches. It looks like someone would talk about their life ideals here when they are bored.

There was a house in front of them, with smoke floating on the roof. It was noon now, so most people had already started cooking, right?

"This is Konta Village, the only way to get to the outlying islands and Inazuma Castle."

"The outlying island is a port for our Narukami Island to conduct trade exchanges with the outside world, but this is only a theory that has been put forward recently."

Hu Zhaigong supported his chin with his hands and looked at the black smoke floating in the sky.

"Oh...Gontian Village..." Chu Yue nodded, "I have been here when I first came here, but I haven't seen anyone."

"Well... that's because many people have gone to Inazuma City to make a living, right? You should have seen a few young people carrying things when we were playing kata just now, right?"

"Well, I've seen it, but..." Chu Yue hesitated, "Are they going to go to the city through the entire White Fox Wilderness like this?"

"Yes, otherwise there is no other way." Hu Zhaigong shook his head.

"Um..Okay."

"What's wrong? Are you asking this question?" Seeing that Chu Yue looked a little strange, Huzhai Palace asked in confusion.

"Ah...it's nothing. I just remembered that when I was in Liyue, it was the immortals who took people to the port...although it doesn't seem to have anything to do with it."

Chu Yue feels like she just likes to talk nonsense...

"Pfft~, okay, okay, let's not talk about this." Huzhai Palace couldn't help but rub Chu Yue's long white hair, "Do you want to hear the history of our rice wife? I have never been with you before. I’ve told you before.”

"Yeah! If you want to listen, please listen!"

Chu Yue loves listening to stories!

Although history seems to be very serious... I don't know if it counts as a story.

"Ahem..." Huzhai Palace cleared his throat, "Then I'll start talking, let's start from this wilderness of white foxes."

"Do you know why this place is called the Wilderness of the White Fox?"

"Uh...how do I know..."

"Well... do you still remember those little civet cats?" Huzhai Palace asked.

"Well, do you remember...the ones in the Guarded Forest?" For some reason, Chu Yue always felt guilty when talking about the name of this place, "What are you talking about?"

"It's good to have an impression." Foxsai Palace also recalled the previous events, "Actually... the area of ​​Inazuma was originally ruled by civet cats."

"Ah? Really?" Chu Yue was a little surprised, "But I've never seen a civet cat before?"

"Oh, listen to me first." Hu Zhaigong hugged Chu Yue into his arms, and the latter also held a little god son in his arms.

Under the big tree, that story was narrated with the beautiful voice of Huzhai Palace.

"A long, long time ago..."

"Stop! Don't say these words!" Chu Yue quickly interrupted.

She has long been tired of hearing these words!

"..." Huzhai Palace's expression froze for a moment, and then he started talking as if nothing had happened.

"In the past, the civet cats were the true masters of Inazuma. They all possessed secret powers and quickly ruled this place."

"But one day, a group of great foxes crossed the ocean and came to Inazuma, and started a fierce fight with the tanuki clan."

"Both civet cats and foxes are good at magic, and they are ever-changing. They have been fighting against each other for hundreds of years and are still indistinguishable."

"Ouch~" Shenzi seemed to be a little sleepy. He called out softly and lay motionless in Chu Yue's arms.

"..."

"Then, did a very powerful person suddenly appear in your fox clan... uh... fox, and then beat away the civet cat all at once?" Chu Yue guessed seriously.

"Eh? Chu Yue, how do you know? Did I really tell you?" Huzhai Palace asked doubtfully.

She had only told this secret history to a few friends, not even the witches in the shrine knew about it.

"Uh... isn't it easy to guess? And we in Liyue have many novels with this kind of plot..."

Chu Yue was a little disappointed. She thought she could hear something unexpected, but she didn't expect it to be so ordinary?

Thinking like this, she wanted to stand up and walk away.

"Hey, just listen to me and continue."

Seeing that Chu Yue had a faint tendency to leave her arms, Hu Zhaigong hugged her tighter.

"Okay...just keep talking." Chu Yue stopped moving and sat obediently on Hu Zhai Palace's lap, stroking the hair of the Son of God.

It seems that Huzhai Palace smells pretty good... Hmm... shouldn't I be thinking about this at this time?

"A very powerful monster appeared in our fox clan, named Bai Chen. It was she who led us to completely defeat the civet cats. Only a few civet cats still live here."

"Bai Chen is also known as the most noble bloodline of our clan and the mistress of our clan. She built a shrine on Shadow Mountain to commemorate the victory of the fox clan."

"Hmm... I don't know if you've ever seen the Thunder Sakura tree in the shrine. It has a fox's head on it." Kosai Palace asked.

"Hmm...it's the purple tree, right? It seems to be..." Chu Yue carefully recalled the things in the shrine.

Well, actually she couldn't think of anything, but whatever Huzhai Palace said was fine.

"Hmm, actually, that was originally the head of a raccoon cat, but it was changed into a fox head after being defeated by the fox clan. Isn't it pretty?"

"Yeah, it looks good."

Chu Yue rubs the pink hair of the Son of God very seriously.JPG

"..."

Hu Zhai Palace always felt that Chu Yue was perfunctory with her, but she had no evidence.

Suddenly, something moved in her heart. She leaned into Chu Yue's ear and whispered, "Now, Xiao Yue, do you want to guess who I am?"

"..."

Chu Yue felt a little bored.

"You have said so, then it must be the descendant of Bai Chen. If the name is correct, it should be called Bai Chen's bloodline, right? The same goes for the Son of God."

"And the reason why you keep the Son of God by your side must be to inherit your position as palace minister?"

"Ah? Why do you know this, Chu Yue?" Huzhai Palace was very shocked now.

"...Please, I'm short, but I'm not stupid! I read a lot of books in Liyue!" Chu Yue said angrily, breaking away from Huzhai Palace's arms.

"Um... I'm sorry, Xiao Yue, I was wrong, isn't it okay?" Hu Zhai Palace hugged Chu Yue back again.

The angry Chu Yue is so cute! He even admitted that he was short! This is nothing like Chu Yue.

"Humph…"

"Then do we still have to sit here? Do we want to go to the outlying island to play?"

"Then go, I'll come out with you anyway." Chu Yue said nonchalantly.

She always held the Son of God in her arms and never let go.

"Then let's go~"
