Chapter 1191: Chapter 354: House Guardian God Takes Position
Well, it’s partly the little girl’s greed. If she’d fixed the mahjong tile and immediately looked for Chen Yan, she might have caught him before he last went to the Domain Realm. Then, perhaps Chen Yan could have brought her question to the old lady earlier, asking where she found the materials to create the mahjong tile in the first place.
Unfortunately, after the little girl fixed the mahjong tile, she got caught up wandering around and missed the chance to meet with Chen Yan.
In fact, Chen Yan harbored some mischievous suspicions: maybe this little rascal wanted to hold onto the mahjong tile for a few more days and deliberately avoided him after getting it fixed, fearing that he’d come to reclaim it.
And as a result, she missed the opportunity.
Now, even if Chen Yan wants to help her ask the old lady, there’s no way to do it.
He can’t return to the Domain Realm now.
·
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, the elder who made this mahjong tile is no longer in this world." Chen Yan shook his head.
·
The little girl was undoubtedly very disappointed.
However, Chen Yan then proposed that he didn’t need the Heavenly Dao-shielding magical treasure for the time being, so he could temporarily let the little girl keep the mahjong tile.
Chen Yan wasn’t being overly generous.
Shielding from the Heavenly Dao is extremely important for a being like the little girl who is rejected by it.
But for Chen Yan, firstly, his cultivation level hadn’t reached the point where he needed it.
Secondly, he still needed to earn more merit!
If the Heavenly Dao is shielded, the rejection disappears, but earning merit to boost his cultivation from the Heavenly Dao might not be possible anymore.
After getting Chen Yan’s promise, the little girl’s heavy expression finally eased a lot.
"Don’t worry, I won’t hog your stuff. I’m just borrowing it temporarily! Yes, borrowing!
Whenever you need it in the future, I’ll return it without a word.
It’s just that..."
Hearing this, Chen Yan laughed heartily and said, "Don’t worry. If one day I also need this item to shield the Heavenly Dao, you can retreat to the Mirror World then.
However, with this item, I can occasionally let you use it to come out for some fresh air.
For instance, when I’m in closed-door cultivation, I can cultivate in the Mirror World. During that time, you can come out and have a stroll, think of it as taking a break, a little vacation or something."
The little girl was instantly quite satisfied.
Cultivators have long lifespans and are usually very good at enduring loneliness.
With Chen Yan’s promise, even if he takes it back later, being able to borrow it occasionally to come out and explore is already enough for the little girl.
She wasn’t the type to enjoy venturing out all the time.
Previously, her constant roaming was mainly because she had been confined for too long, leading to a spree of wandering around.
"By the way, you no longer want to live in the old neighborhood. Where are you staying now?"
"Me?" The little girl shook her head and smiled, "With my cultivation, the world is vast, and I can go anywhere. If I feel like it, I can camp out in the wild.
If I prefer comfort, I’ll find an empty house or hotel to stay in."
Chen Yan looked at the little girl with a grin: "Wandering around is quite exhausting. Why don’t I find you a permanent place to stay?"
Saying this, he pointed to the lake: "My newly built Cultivator’s Cave Mansion, a grand estate with three entrances and exits!
24-hour paperman puppet service, loyal and reliable, attentive and diligent.
It also comes with a Spirit Gathering Array that can concentrate Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, much more potent than some remote mountain sites you wander to."
The little girl glanced at Chen Yan, sighed, and said, "Don’t think I don’t realize that your flowery words are just a ploy to trick me into being your security guard!"
Chen Yan laughed heartily: "Free housing, full board, complete with furniture and appliances, and I’ll even set up internet access in the cave mansion!
So? Want to live there? Just say the word."
