Chapter 296: Past Events (8th Level Son of God)
"Oh, never mind. Anyway, that's all I have to say. Is there anything else you want to say?"
Chen Yue shook his head helplessly. He knew Hu Zhaigong's personality. Once she became interested in something, it would be difficult for her to stop. Since she had already accepted this form of "death notice", he could only let it go.
"By the way, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten it." Kitsushaigong suddenly said seriously. She seemed to have come back to her senses from the "martial arts movie" just now and returned to the real world.
"Son of God, come here."
Kitsuzai Palace waved to the side, and a petite figure in pink clothes and a pair of fox ears on her head walked over.
That was none other than the young Yae Godson, a fox who also had the blood of the Baichen clan.
"Son of God, do you still recognize him? He is the strange man who used to hold you in his arms as a warm baby when you were still a fox, and who would pick up your tail and swing it hard when he found you secretly eating dessert."
As soon as Kitsaigong finished speaking, Yae Shinko looked at Chen Yue curiously, her crystal clear eyes flashing with curiosity and memories. Her tail swayed slightly, as if she was trying to recall that long-lost memory.
"Ah, I remember!" Yae Shenzi suddenly cried out in surprise. She quickly ran to Chen Yue and gently stroked Chen Yue's clothes with her small hands. "You are the one who always brings me delicious fried tofu and gently punishes me when I make mistakes!"
Chen Yue looked at the Yae Goddess in front of him, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He squatted down, looked at Yae Goddess at eye level, and gently touched her head: "Yes, Goddess, it's been a long time. You have grown up a lot."
"Yes, sir. I have missed you all the time since you left." Yae Shinko said with tears in her eyes.
She raised her head and looked towards Huzhai Palace, then turned to Chen Yue and continued, "I have always wanted to know, sir, why did you leave me? Is it because I did something wrong?"
"Son of God, I called you here because I have something to tell you."
Seeing this, Kitsaigong gently patted Yae Shinko's shoulder, signaling her to be quiet. Then, she turned to Chen Yue, her expression becoming serious.
"Chen Yue, your 'death notice' this time made me realize that there are some things we must prepare for in advance. Yae Shenzi is the hope of our Baichen clan, and her future is related to the fate of our entire clan."
Chen Yue nodded, indicating that he understood what Hu Zhai Palace meant. For Yae Shen Zi, a fox who inherited the blood of the Baichen clan, Hu Zhai Palace has always regarded her as the successor to the next palace official and has been training her with all his heart.
However, even though he understood this, Chen Yue still felt a little confused.
"Saimiya, are you going to tell me next that you want to entrust the Son of God to me?"
"You are so smart." Kitsusai showed an appreciative smile, and her eyes revealed her deep trust in Chen Yue. Then, she said gently: "Yes, my dear Chen Yixuan Immortal. I sincerely hope that after I leave, you can continue to give guidance and teachings to Yae Shinko and help her grow into an outstanding new chief priest of Narukami Taisha."
Then, Kitsai-no-Miya turned her head and looked at Shen Zi affectionately. She gently reminded him, "In the future, if you encounter anything you don't understand or a problem you can't solve, and I'm not here at the time, you can ask him for help without worry. Although this guy is sometimes not very serious, his efficiency is quite reliable. If you have any questions, just go to him and you will get the best advice and help."
Although the young Yae Shenzi didn't quite understand the deeper meaning of Kitsukosai's words, she could feel Kitsukosai's deep trust and dependence on Chen Yue.
"Zaigong, what do you mean by this?" Chen Yue seemed a little confused by Kitsuigong's behavior. Just because Yae Shinko didn't understand didn't mean Chen Yue didn't understand. "You're not going to die, so what's the point of trying to kill you?" His tone revealed a hint of worry and dissatisfaction.
"Just in case."
Kitsusaigong gently stroked Yae Shinko's head, her eyes full of kindness and reluctance. She knew clearly that her time was running out, and Yae Shinko was still a child who needed someone to give her the right guidance and support on her path to growth.
"Please step aside for a moment. I want to talk to Shen Zi alone." Chen Yue, as a friend with whom she has a deep friendship, is undoubtedly the most suitable person in her mind. She believes that Chen Yue will take good care of Shen Zi Yae in the future and help her become an excellent person.
"Okay, okay, there's nothing I can do about you. Say less unlucky things. I won't let you die like this." After saying that, Chen Yue turned and walked aside, waiting quietly.
"Son of God, you are still young, and you have a long way to go in the future." Kitsusaigong's voice was low and firm, "The future of Narukami Taisha depends on you. When you become the chief priest of Narukami Taisha, you will have endless fried tofu to eat. If you want to eat something else, this adult will buy it for you for free, and you can eat as much as you want."
"Really, Lord Palace Administrator?" Yae Shinko widened his eyes, with anticipation and excitement flashing in them.
Her love for fried tofu was deeply rooted in her bones, and Hu Zhaigong's words made her full of hope for the future. However, she did not realize the deep meaning of Hu Zhaigong's words, nor did she notice Hu Zhaigong's gradually dimming eyes.
"Of course it's true, Lord Palace Master never lies." Kitsusai Palace smiled and nodded. She looked at the innocent face of Yae Shinko, and an indescribable sadness surged in her heart.
"Then, what about Lord Chen Yue? Will he always be with the Son of God?" Yae Shen Zi suddenly asked, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
Husaigong was silent for a moment, then sighed softly. "Chen Yue...has his own mission and responsibilities." She said slowly, "But he will always pay attention to you and protect you. If you need his help, he will definitely lend a hand without hesitation."
"Okay, Goddess of Mercy. You go and do your work first. I still have some things to deal with." Kitsusai Palace gently patted Goddess of Mercy's hand, indicating that she could leave.
Chen Yue stood aside, silently watching the back of Yae Shinko leaving, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He seemed to have thought of something, but shook his head vigorously, denying the ominous thought in his mind.
Maybe he was just deceiving himself, or maybe he was just overthinking it. But at this point, there was nothing more to say.
"Sorry Yixuan, actually, I went to Liyue secretly..."
