Chapter 154 Parfait
Chapter 154 Parfait
"Qi Shuo, you're talking nonsense again!" Redros said angrily. "And don't you dare use my communications."
"What does it matter? You must be Di Xing. I've wanted to meet you for a long time."
Di Xing was filled with questions. Who was this person? Are all people from other worlds this good-looking?
Realizing Di Xing's confusion, Qi Shuo lifted her skirt and gave an elegant bow. "Hello, my name is Qi Shuo. I'm a novelist with a bit of a reputation. My job is to record legends and tales from various places and write them into stories to be passed down through generations."
"Young man, I have high hopes for you. I have a feeling you'll become the protagonist of my story."
"Xiao Shuo, you said too much at once; he was a little frightened."
A squirrel dressed in a classic Disney princess dress, with long light brown hair streaked with red, and red bows tied on its head and tail, appeared on the screen.
"F-Fairy Princess Shirayuki?"
"Haha, Bai Xue, you clearly scared him more. Besides, what does it matter? This boy is my type!"
"Wow!" Upon hearing this, the innocent young man Di Xing couldn't help but blush slightly, after all, the person in front of him was a genuine beauty.
"Don't interrupt, Qi Shuo," Redros said, clearly displeased. "Di Xing, you haven't given me a reply yet."
"I refuse!"
"what?"
"None of my current decks can beat the full-powered Kusha's Wrath deck!" Di Xing was already facing the tragic sight of all ten of his deck slots being locked.
"As you all probably know, my victory over Senior Yaoshang was largely due to luck, and also because of the deck type; we both used graveyard decks, and her graveyard build actually allowed me to take advantage of it."
“Of course we know that,” Reedros said, arms crossed, but a hint of smugness could be detected in his tone.
“That’s right. Although Yao Shang is the champion, she’s not invincible. Simply defeating her isn’t enough to make us have such high expectations for you,” Qi Shuo added.
“We see a possibility in you, a possibility that will propel the world forward.” Redros’s red hair and leather jacket fluttered in the wind, looking incredibly cool, somewhat like a mature, older version of Shana.
"Ah, what exactly is that?"
"Then you'll have to find it yourself," the two replied in unison.
"Ah! Riddler, get out of Endertella!"
"Alright then, since you feel it's not the right time to fight me, I'll wait for you. When you're ready, come find me on Mitsuba Island anytime. Hmm, as for transportation and travel expenses..."
Redros glanced at the trembling Immortal Chronicles to the side.
"When you're ready, find this girl. Our communication equipment on Three Leaf Island is quite special; it can communicate over extremely long distances, but it can't connect to other communication devices."
"Girl from the Immortal Clan, this task is entrusted to you. Don't worry, I'll talk to that stubborn old man in your family and have him rescind the punishment on you, and no one will be chasing you anymore."
"R-Really? Thank you, Lord Redros!" Immortal Chronicle was extremely excited.
"However, girl, I advise you to leave that masked man, Gong Shusheng, as soon as possible. Don't you find it strange? He just happened to come to Sanye Island, and you just happened to encounter danger, and he just happened to save you. Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence?"
Immortal Dao Divine Era lowered his head and remained silent.
Is this Gongshu Sheng the "Master Craftsman" mentioned in *The Chronicles of Immortals*? In other words, Gongshu Sheng's rescue of *The Chronicles of Immortals* was very likely a conspiracy orchestrated by him. Hmm, I often see this kind of plot in novels. What a scumbag!
But did he have the right to criticize him? Wasn't he also trying to take advantage of the Immortal Era? Thinking of this, Di Xing felt somewhat dejected.
"Anyway, I don't think that Gongshu Sheng is a good person. If you really want to choose a man, I think that Di Xing over there is not bad."
"Ah!" Di Xing panicked, knowing without turning around that several pairs of murderous eyes were staring at him.
Immortal Dao Divine Chronicle glanced at Di Xing and said, "How can this big bad guy compare to Master Craftsman?" Then, without any hesitation, he jumped onto Di Xing's back, almost knocking him over.
Seeing this, Red Rose smiled like an auntie even behind her mask. Then she put her hands in her pockets, and a gust of wind blew by, causing her leather coat and red hair to flutter wildly in the wind.
"Well then, Di Xing, I look forward to your arrival. Don't keep me waiting too long!" Then the communication was cut off.
However, Qi Shuo's communication wasn't cut off, though it started flickering. "Wow, Redros, why did you suddenly cut off the communication? I hadn't finished speaking yet!"
Qi Shuo frowned, furiously complaining about her old friend Zhang, "Well then, young man, I'm also looking forward to meeting you. I might be there soon, see you later!" With that, Qi Shuo closed the chat window.
It seems I've met two more formidable figures. However, the crucial point now is... Di Xing glanced back at the Immortal Dao Chronicles, who were eyeing him menacingly.
"Let's go, I'll treat everyone to a parfait."
Parfaits are a high-end dessert, and a fourth tier is actually quite uncommon. However, Lunya said that her shop manager could make them, so the group returned to the card shop/restaurant, [Here It Is].
The rabbit-eared boss's skills were indeed superb; he quickly made a tray of parfaits and served them to the girls with an elegance that belied his robust physique. Then, quite impatiently, he slammed the last cup down in front of Di Xing with a "bang."
However, Di Xing still felt there had been progress; at least the murderous intent he felt towards him wasn't as obvious.
The girls' eyes sparkled as they looked at the parfait; it seems girls can't resist desserts. But why did Miss Liu Tiaowu come along too?
That's fine, but why did Xiao Yi come too?!
At that moment, Xiao Yi had already scooped up a spoonful of his parfait and put it in his mouth, immediately revealing an expression of pure bliss.
"Wow, this isn't spicy at all, but it tastes so good!"
"If it's not Xiao Yi, what are you doing here!?"
"Of course I want to duel with you, Aibo (partner)! I suddenly realized I haven't fought you yet!" Xiao Yi said with a look of enjoyment, his address to Di Xing having changed to Aibo at some point.
"Who are you, Aibo? Hurry up and eat, then get lost."
Di Xing said without any politeness, "A stinky man trying to freeload off me? I'm being generous by letting him eat. You know, these parfaits are all quite expensive. And, well, I'm definitely not jealous of his ring, especially since he sold it."
"Let's dig in!" Immortal Dao made a very devout prayer gesture, then elegantly scooped a spoonful into his mouth, instantly revealing a very happy smile.
Looking at that carefree smile, Di Xing couldn't help but wonder if it was really a good idea to drag such an innocent girl into a conspiracy. Sigh, he mentally gave Gongshu Sheng a bad review.
