So Paimon couldn't help but ask.

"Mr. Zhongli...I seemed to see you staring at the statue just now.

Did we make you wait too long?"

There was a hint of apology and concern in his voice.

When Zhongli heard Paimon's question, he smiled slightly, and that smile was as warm and gentle as the spring breeze.

He shook his head slightly and answered in a calm but firm tone.

"It doesn't matter.

Compared to the watchfulness of the Rock King carved on the statue, this wait is but a fleeting moment."

His eyes were still on the statue, revealing a feeling of nostalgia.

After hearing what Zhongli said, Paimeng just shook his head.

She obviously didn't agree with Zhongli's comparison of herself to a statue.

She muttered, "Mr. Zhongli, what you said is wrong.

How can a man be compared to a statue?

Humans have life and thoughts!"

Zhongli listened quietly to Paimeng's rebuttal, with a slight smile on his face, expressing his understanding and agreement.

He responded softly, “Paimon is absolutely right.

Indeed, people and statues are not the same.

So, is the ointment ready?"

When Paimon heard this, he immediately perked up and a look of pride lit up his face.

She raised her chin triumphantly and nodded like a proud little rooster.

He answered loudly, "Of course I have! Three portions of ointment, not one less!"

As he spoke, Kong had already walked forward, took out three exquisite brocade boxes one by one, and handed them to Zhongli.

Zhongli took the brocade box and examined it carefully.

He first opened one of the boxes, leaned in to smell it, and then smiled with satisfaction.

Then he checked the ointments in the other two brocade boxes one by one and gave them positive comments as well.

Finally, he raised his head and looked at Paimon, Kong and Lin Feng, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

"Thank you all, let's try to offer them up one by one."

Kong Guo made the ointments and carefully placed the three unused ointments, "Jin Wu Cang Jiao", "Shan Yin Jin Cluster" and "Piao Miao Xian Yuan", on the altar one by one as instructed.

Paimon was like a lively and cute little bird, flying lightly beside Zhongli, muttering to himself.

Every time Kong put a kind of ointment, she would explain to Zhongli who that ointment was suitable for.

Kong was quite cooperative with Paimon. He would listen to Paimon quietly every time and wait until she finished speaking before moving on to another move.

"The first kind of perfume, Miss Ying'er said it exudes a sweet scent.

It's like a wonderful dream that makes people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.

This sweet and dreamy taste is the favorite of those innocent little girls! "

Paimon said, blinking his big eyes.

Then she couldn't wait to introduce the second ointment.

“Look at this perfume again, its fragrance is noble and elegant, and you can feel its unique temperament as soon as you smell it.

It is said that only the daughters of wealthy families would have a special liking for such a fragrance!"

Finally, Paimon spoke of the third balm: “And this.

Its fragrance is very special, as gentle as drizzle falling on the body.

But it can linger for a long time, giving people a hazy and mysterious feeling...

Well, it’s very charming anyway!

And Miss Ying'er said that this scent is most loved by mature and stable women!"

At this moment, when Kong placed the third kind of ointment on the altar.
