Chapter 1105: Chapter 113: Dragon Summit Inn (27)

This thing is indeed not a simple illusion!

The first piece of evidence is that not only I can see it.

While summarizing the experience, Fu Qian turned to look at another figure that appeared beside him.

“What’s this? Manager Sunny is planning to open another branch in my place?”

Indeed, the person who appeared silently was known as Madam Sunny, the legendary shopkeeper, who never enters into the act of bestowing a blessing.

At this moment, her blonde hair seemed more lustrous than ever.

Without a doubt, Fu Qian’s greeting startled her a bit.

Originally, she was standing there, slowly reaching her hand towards the mid-air to grasp that insect, which seemingly shouldn’t exist.

With Fu Qian’s action, she undoubtedly grasped at nothing.

And Sunny did not attempt again. Almost instantly, she jumped to the side and looked over warily.

“Don’t be nervous, are you surprised I can still move?”

Seeing this, Fu Qian let out a series of deep chuckles.

“Please, have a seat. I can of course answer this, just as I am equally curious about why you decided to break your own rule.”

“You’re a Demigod? Otherwise, there’s no reason you could resist…”

Sunny, abandoning her business demeanor, clearly lost the composure she had in her shop, still did not sit down as invited, but furrowed her brows at Fu Qian and soon let out a gasp of surprise.

“Yes, but since I don’t seek fame, I always keep a low profile when I go out.”

Fu Qian admitted outright, even tapping on the mask on his face.

Sunny’s inquiry was not off the mark; the residual image of the Giant Dragon just now was far more deceptive than a single butterfly, any other person right now would likely be at her mercy.

“The trick just now was indeed eye-opening, so may I know the meaning behind that action?”

…

Sunny clearly had no interest in answering the question, just kept looking around cautiously.

“Don’t worry, it’s not any duo trap scheme.”

Fu Qian shook his head, pointing to the faintly flickering electric light as he spoke.

“In fact, I’m very pleased that you could come here, though it would’ve been nicer if you were more polite upon entering.”

“Are you sure you don’t want to sit? Offending a Demigod is quite dangerous, but there aren’t many places you can go outside.”

“What is your purpose in coming here?”

Fu Qian’s last sentence hit hard, causing Sunny to take a breath and carefully find a seat that was relatively intact.

She had some control over the situation inside the blessing, but when it came to spoken communication, she couldn’t hear, otherwise, she would likely change her question.

From Sunny’s questions, Fu Qian quickly verified his previous speculations while straightforwardly answering.

“I have always said, to maintain world peace.”

“…Judging from your actions, I can’t even refute that. As a Demigod, not only is your temperament incredibly good, but you also seem to have no interest in hunting.”

This indeed was the answer given by him in the shop, and Sunny clenched her teeth slightly.

“Unfortunately, in this day and age, good people are bullied, isn’t that what you saw, which led you to hide from Kelson and decided to take action against me?”

“Sorry for the offense just now, but why would I need to hide from Kelson?”

Sunny revealed an utterly natural look of puzzlement.

“Not to mention, I don’t have the ability to evade a Demigod.”

“No need to be modest, Sunny may not have this ability, but you do.”

Fu Qian shook his head, pointing to the dragon vying for a seat beside him.

“Are you planning to maintain this state and bring Kelson here as quickly as possible, or sit down and discuss world peace?”

…

For a moment, Sunny stood completely still on the spot, like a soulless statue.

At the same time, the dragon-shaped silhouette beside Fu Qian silently collapsed, with Soul Butterflies scattering into the Void.

Without them as a backdrop, a cluster of Soul Butterflies still emerging beside became immediately eye-catching.

“Pleased to meet you, how should I address you?”

With such a distinctive tail flame, it was quite recognizable. Fu Qian made casual conversation.

“Aren’t you all referring to me as the Ancient Dragon?”

Moments later, a somewhat androgynous voice responded, and a shadow emerged from the Void.

Almost two meters tall, exquisite in skeleton, yet with a different kind of grace.

Indeed, it was the same being Kelson had struck down, even bearing the visible wounds and dissipating Soul Butterflies.

As for facial features, they were strikingly similar to the Ancient Dragon from just before.

This appearance was nearly ephemeral.

“Then I’ll call you Ah Long.”

Knowing that the other party was displaying sincerity but absolutely unwilling to reveal more of themselves, Fu Qian didn’t mind and even spoke with concern.

“Forgive me for being blunt, but you seem to be in very poor condition, even having to bring the manageress here for help. Given her usual persona, this is quite an eye-catching situation.”

“You already knew there was something wrong with her? Because of what you were doing in the shop at the time?”

Without objecting to Fu Qian’s crude address, Ah Long’s voice was slightly deep.

“That’s a bit of an exaggeration. Back then, I just felt particularly attentive, now I know where her unaffected sobriety comes from.”

“This [entity] in itself is nothing more than a puppet on strings, as long as you, who has killed and fled, stay out of the influence range, her performance won’t have any issues.”

“So the reason you’re chatting with me is because of this.”

Sunny spoke again, her tone of sudden realization with no hint of irregularity.

It sounded like both her and Ah Long tacitly acknowledged the murder.

“Yes, but mainly due to curiosity. After all, as a manager, you really don’t have the time nor ability to kill.”

Even though he proved her to be just a Puppet, Fu Qian seemed not to mind treating Sunny as a separate entity to converse with.

“Regardless of how you look at it, you indeed stand out from the rest. Normally, I wouldn’t mind having a longer chat, but the situation is a bit tense right now…”

Ah Long’s voice came out from a group of Soul Butterflies.

“If Mr. Lu doesn’t mind the offense from earlier, we’ll take our leave now.”

“Understood, then let’s briefly talk about world peace.”

Fu Qian appeared understanding with his tone, though he completely changed the subject.

…

Amidst the unanimous silence of the shady shop duo, Fu Qian didn’t say more but simply snapped his fingers, activating the Return Edict.

The next instant, amidst Sunny’s incomprehensible gaze, the swarm of butterflies that had emerged from the Void began to slow down surprisingly.

“It’s apparent that the things continuously appearing on you were supposed to be some kind of positive blessing, but now, unfortunately, they’re causing trouble for your escape.”

“Fortunately, I am always adept at cutting off people’s fate, and will ease your troubles a bit.

“Too much tension isn’t conducive to communication, and the night is still long.”
