Chapter 358 Entering the Scroll World
"Old Taoist priest, the place we rented is nearby..." Lin Qingyan found the four-story hotel building according to the house number on the street.
"Well, the environment here is pretty good, and the air is much fresher than that in Longmen." As a Terran god, the old Taoist priest has a keen sense of Originium.
The high concentration of Originium dust in the air can easily cause physical discomfort, especially for old gods and people like the Old Heavenly Master who are injured.
"Yes, there are not as many factories as dragon gates in Kazdel, and there are also those towers, which capture the originium dust in the air day and night." Lin Qingyan pointed to the towering spires between the buildings and introduced.
"I saw that Longmen also has this kind of tower. Is it a joint project between Dayan and Kazdel?"
"Yes, according to Governor Wei, there will be some in all parts of Yan Country in the future."
"Well, that's right... Wei still cares about Da Yan, if it weren't for that incident back then. Forget it, I won't say more..."
Thinking back to the incident in the Forbidden City of Hundred Stoves, the old Taoist priest couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Not many people knew the real inside story, and she was one of them.
The inexplicable death of the previous true dragon shocked the entire court and triggered a lot of bloodshed.
The old Taoist priest had no intention of interfering in the intrigues and power struggles in the court. The northern monsters, the Sui beast, and its old friends were what she should always be on guard against.
The scheming second son of the Sui family was also involved. The old Taoist priest originally held a neutral attitude towards the Sui beast's agent.
After learning about this, the old Taoist priest, while guarding the northern defense line, would occasionally hit the Sui family members to warn them to behave themselves.
Just as the old Taoist priest was reminiscing about the past, two figures, one big and one small, slowly walked past her, and the strong energy fluctuations immediately caught her attention.
"Hmm?" The old Taoist priest turned his head, golden light flashing in his eyes and a subtle expression.
That little girl has a good foundation...
"Old Taoist Priest, what's wrong?" After Lin Qingyan completed the check-in procedures at the front desk, he turned around and found that the old Taoist Priest was still standing outside the door. He walked over to him and asked in confusion.
"Nothing, I just found two interesting people." The old Taoist shook his head and walked into the first floor of the hotel.
......
"Mr. Roy, the girl we just passed by seemed to be using magic to detect us." Narcissa's mental perception range was very large, giving her a 360-degree real-time vision with no blind spots.
Even after being suppressed by the instrument, it still covered a radius of five meters. She naively thought that the girl was not much older than her, but in fact, she was much older.
"Narcissa, that is not just any little girl. Her age can be measured in thousands of years." Roy smiled and glanced sideways at the back of the old Taoist priest who walked into the inn.
"But she looks pretty much the same as Sister Amiya." Narcissa still couldn't understand what a thousand years meant, so she asked with a puzzled look on her face.
"She should have maintained her appearance through special magic, which is different from your sister Amiya." Roy told Narcissa his guess, but he was not really sure.
The old Taoist priest looks young, which may be a racial talent. The lifespan of the gods' people can basically reach more than a thousand years.
"Oh..." Narcissa nodded as if she understood and stopped asking questions.
......
After buying a blueberry cake with Narcissa, Roy sent her to Muirseth and left her in his care. The clone completed its mission and turned into a black shadow to return to its original body.
"Master Dayan unexpectedly arrived so quickly. I wonder if that unreliable guy Nian has explained this to Xi..."
Roy glanced at the scroll hanging on the wall, stood up and approached it, tentatively reaching out and knocking on it.
"Knock knock knock..." The touch of my knuckles was hard. It was the wall of the office.
"Miss Xi, it's me. I want to talk to you about something."
"......" Huajuan didn't respond at all, Xi might not be at home.
"How should I incorporate it into the painting? Is it necessary to resort to violence?" Roy stroked his chin and thought quickly.
Before, it was Xi who took the initiative to bring him into the painting world, and Roy had never tried to enter the painting on his own.
"Try again." Roy stroked the scroll gently, the silk felt soft and delicate. If he pressed harder, there would be a wall behind him.
"Well, it still doesn't work. I can only use some special means." Roy clenched his five fingers, and a pitch-black sword appeared. The seal was lifted, and the sword was unsheathed, revealing its sharpness.
The tip of the sword was aimed at the scroll, a few centimeters away, and it was gently slashed. After a dazzling white light burst out, Roy, who was standing in front of the scroll, disappeared.
Li, wearing a plain cheongsam, was trimming the potted plants by the window with scissors. The cut branches turned into ink and dissipated.
The vast majority of things in the scroll world are creations of Xi's authority and are made of ink.
Xi has been in a bad mood recently and has been hiding in the studio and refusing to go out. Li has to temporarily manage the operation of the scroll world for her.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" A dark disaster cloud suddenly appeared on the other side of the mountain. Thunder surged in the thick clouds, and the terrifying aura made it hard for people to breathe.
"Xi is in a bad mood? What's going on?" Li put down the scissors and was about to go to the studio to help her vent her emotions.
Thick lightning streaked across the sky, and dazzling white light and thunder filled the entire space. Li was startled and hurriedly turned around to check the situation.
A figure holding a sword walked out of the lightning. Li's eyes widened slightly. She recognized the man.
"Mr. Roy, why did you come in this way? Did something happen?" Li stroked her chest and let out a breath. She was frightened by the lightning just now.
"You are..." Roy knew this gentle film girl, she was the person in Li Xi's painting.
However, it was the first time Roy saw her in person, so he asked her identity out of politeness.
"I'm Li, and I'm Xi's friend." Li smiled and pushed aside the messy hair on his forehead, letting it hang by his ears.
"You recognize me."
"I often hear Xi talking about you, sir. I have also seen you through the scroll, so of course I recognize you. Are you here to look for Xi this time?"
"Well, there is something I need to talk to her about. Is Xi out?" Roy looked around and did not see Xi.
I forced my way into the painting and made such a big noise. If the owner was at home, he would have come out to chase me away long ago.
"No, she's at home now, but she stays in the studio all day and won't come out. I sent her food, but she wouldn't eat it. Do you need me to invite her out?"
"Excuse me Miss Li, just tell her it's about the Great Flame Heavenly Master, Xi will understand."
"Well, Mr. Roy, come in and sit down. Wait a moment." Li took Roy into the house and asked him to sit down. After making a cup of tea, he went to the inner studio to ask Xi to come out.
