"Is True Lord Liuyun here?"
"Master is in the backyard."
"Alright, I'll go have a chat with the True Lord. You go ahead and get busy."
In the backyard, a stunningly beautiful woman with a high ponytail was busy with something. She was tall, had an outstanding temperament, and possessed a curvaceous figure that was in no way inferior to Shen He's.
She wore a black jumpsuit with a cloud-shaped shoulder piece on top. The back of the shoulder piece resembled wings, and she wore a golden ruyi knot on her chest with long tassels that passed through her chest and reached her waist.
She wore black-rimmed glasses, which added to her refined and elegant demeanor, but she also possessed such a stunning figure that Lu Lin couldn't help but think of the sexy female teachers he often saw in another world.
However, compared to the mature and beautiful woman before me, those so-called sexy female teachers are like fireflies compared to the bright moon.
At this moment, she was squatting on the ground, her full and round buttocks shaped like a full moon. Lu Lin subconsciously swallowed, this figure was just too top-notch!
Hearing Lu Lin's footsteps, the stunningly beautiful mature woman turned around: "So it's my young friend Lu Lin. Have you finished your business in Liyue?"
"Liyue has the Seven Stars in charge of the overall situation. At most, I'll just help out with some errands. There's nothing much to do."
"Young friend, you are quite magnanimous not to covet power."
"You flatter me, True Lord Liuyun. Just call me Lu Lin."
"Hehe, then don't call me Immortal Liuyun Zhenjun. I... am currently living in seclusion in Liyue and do not wish to reveal my identity as an immortal. You can just call me Xianyun."
"What kind of mechanism is Miss Xianyun working on?" Lu Linke quickly got into character, following his host's lead. He looked at the materials piled up on the ground and knew what kind of mechanism she was tinkering with.
The address "Miss Xianyun" made this immortal who had lived in seclusion for thousands of years feel slightly dazed. She felt that there was a familiar shadow in Lu Lin.
[Ding! Random quest triggered: Conquer Xianyun]
[Task objective: Xianyun is very curious about you. Please conquer her both physically and mentally, and push your conquest progress to 100% in front of Ganyu.]
[Task Rewards: 1 million Mora, 500 points, 1000 experience points, one randomly assigned affix, and one Soul Orb.]
hiss!
The sudden system task notification made Lu Lin gasp; the task requirements were far too difficult.
How to achieve a 100% success rate in winning over Xianyun in front of Gan Yu?
Is this even possible?
"This item is called Flower Feather Leaf Moon Divine Machine. It can transform into the form of various small animals, making it perfect for helping to take care of flowers and plants." Xianyun's words pulled Lu Lin's thoughts back to reality.
"During the previous naval battle, the Thousand Rock Army brought out a large number of improved Returning Machines. You said they were your creations, so you must be quite knowledgeable about mechanical arts?"
"I know a little bit!" Lu Lin said calmly, his words brimming with confidence.
This made Xianyun even more interested in him. She later personally examined the improved version of the Returning to the End Machine and found many ingenious designs inside. If they were all his work, then his skill in mechanical arts had reached a very high level.
"So confident? Then why don't you take a look and see if there's anything about this Flower Feather Leaf Moon Divine Machine that needs improvement?"
She handed over the small, insect-shaped device in her palm. Lu Lin reached out and took it, his little finger seemingly unintentionally tracing a light line across her palm, which was truly smooth and glossy.
This little gesture was quite frivolous, and Xianyun frowned slightly, but seeing Lu Lin's focused observation of the insect-shaped mechanism, she figured he probably didn't do it on purpose, so she didn't take it to heart.
"Miss Xianyun's mechanical skills are unparalleled, and I can't find anything that can be improved. However, I do have an idea for further development."
"Oh? Tell me?"
"This Hanahaha Hazuki Shinki has great functionality, but it's not very entertaining. I've heard that there's a game called Insatsuki called Insatsuki Fighting. We could modify it to have the same function and make it a fun toy."
"A good idea. Besides superb skills, mechanical arts also require creative thinking!" Xianyun nodded in approval.
"You have many ingenious modifications to the Returning to the End Machine, and your mechanical skills must have reached a very high level. May I ask where you learned them?"
"Eventually."
"What?!" The mature and beautiful woman turned around abruptly.
Xianyun's expression was momentarily dazed. This name had been frequently mentioned recently because of Gui Zhongji, but how long ago was the last time the two words Gui Zhong were mentioned alone?
It's been a thousand years, hasn't it?
She actually left behind a legacy in the world?
So the reason I felt a familiar aura from him was because he had received the inheritance of the finality?
Xianyun had doubts, but also felt that things weren't so simple.
"It is the legacy of the Demon God of Dust, Gui Zhong..." Lu Lin wanted to get closer to her, and Gui Zhong was undoubtedly a good starting point, so he briefly explained how he had accidentally entered the secret realm.
Of course, he omitted the ambiguous interactions between Gan Yu and Hu Tao in the secret realm, only saying that in the end, Zhong Li gave him the inheritance of Gui Zhong.
"You mean you learned her legacy and improved the Return to the End in such a short time?" Xianyun was shocked again.
Ultimately, his mastery of mechanical arts surpasses hers. How could he have learned such a profound and extensive knowledge in just over half a month? And he can even apply it to other situations and make improvements?
What incredible talent must that be?!
She couldn't believe it.
"Come with me!" A graceful and mature woman stepped into the house, and Lu Lin followed closely behind.
Xianyun's courtyard is quite large, and there is also a three-story building. This building is the workshop she plans to use to make some small gadgets. It contains various precious materials and tools.
"This is a machine I recently developed. Can you try to make it?" Xianyun handed him a blueprint.
Lu Lin glanced at it briefly and smiled, "It can be done in one day!"
His words made Xianyun raise an eyebrow, full of disbelief.
As the designer of this machine, it would take her two to three days to make it herself, yet he was confident that he could make it in one day?
“Miss Xianyun doesn’t seem to believe it. How about we make a bet?” Lu Lin could see the disbelief in her eyes.
"What are you gambling?"
"Let's bet on whether I can bring this machine from the blueprints to you tomorrow afternoon, and I guarantee it will be fully functional. The wager is that the loser grants the winner one request, how about it?" Lu Lin said confidently.
Xianyun, who never admits defeat when it comes to mechanical arts, said upon hearing this, "Alright, this immortal will take your bet!"
The two finalized their bet when a commotion erupted in the courtyard: "True Lord Liuyun, Yaoyao has come to see you!"
Chapter Seventy-One: Fireflies Under the Dinner Table
A cute and cheerful voice came from the courtyard. Xianyun pushed open the window of the small building, waved to the downstairs, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.
Lu Lin looked down and saw a lovely girl standing in the courtyard. She was dressed in green with brown hair, which was braided into two pigtails and then coiled into a butterfly shape, with a large bell hanging on each side.
A smile graced her delicate, porcelain-like face, and she carried a small basket on her back, waving towards the drifting clouds.
"That's A-Ping's youngest disciple, Yao Yao," Xianyun introduced, her voice gentle.
In fact, Lu Lin knew who it was without her introduction. This was one of the most beloved members of the Jueyun Immortals. It wasn't surprising that she came to Xianyun's housewarming party.
Beside her was Xiangling, who was also a disciple of the True Lord of Gechenlang City, who used the alias Granny Ping. It was only natural that they came together.
"Is that Brother Lu Lin next to me? Hello, I'm Yao Yao!" Yao Yao also saw Lu Lin, and waved to greet him with a smile. Her bright and sunny smile was quite heartwarming.
"Hello, Yao Yao!" Lu Lin replied with a smile.
With guests arriving, the two could no longer continue their discussion about mechanical arts, so they left the small building and went to the courtyard.
"True Lord Liuyun, we're here to help you!" Yao Yao turned slightly to the side, revealing the small basket on her back.
The room was full of fresh vegetables and fruits, and Xiangling was also carrying a lot of other ingredients, clearly ready to make a big splash!
“I live in Liyue Harbor as a mortal, so please don’t call me Lord Liuyun. My mortal name is Xianyun, so just call me Aunt Xianyun.” After saying this, Xianyun glanced at Lu Lin.
This kid is so clueless, calling her "Miss Xianyun" makes her sound so young!
"Okay, Aunt Xianyun, where's the kitchen? Let's go prepare the meal!" Xiangling and Yaoyao readily agreed and got ready to start working.
"This immortal...I am not good at cooking, and my two children, Gan Yu and Shen He, are used to eating the wind and dew with me. This time, I will have to trouble Xiang Ling and Yao Yao."
"No trouble at all, I'm glad I could help!" Yao Yao's voice was clear and melodious, and just hearing it would lift anyone's spirits.
"Xianyun...Auntie, please let me know if there's anything I can do to help." Lu Lin paused for a moment, then changed his form of address.
"There's nothing else to do, just the living room needs some simple arranging. Shen He doesn't know much about these things, so could you please give me some guidance?"
When Xianyun mentioned decorating, he meant making the living room more festive. Shenhe had no concept of such things, so he couldn't rely on him.
"Shen He has lived with me in the deep mountains for a long time, far from the world. He is too indifferent and lacks common sense. He is ignorant of the ways of the world, does not understand common sense, cannot distinguish between beans and millet, and does not know the difference between high and low."
But she is, after all, human, and wants to try to reintegrate into human society. Lu Lin, you have many friends and a cheerful disposition, so please take good care of her.
"Of course, Shen He and I are already friends, it's only right that we help each other." Lu Lin said with a warm smile.
Shen He, who overheard their conversation, muttered to himself, "Friends? That's a strange feeling."
Lu Lin led Shen He to start decorating the living room. In fact, he didn't understand many of Liyue's traditions and just went by feeling. Fortunately, the effect was pretty good, and Xianyun was very satisfied.
What Xianyun was actually pleased about was that Lu Lin played with Shen He, and Shen He's performance was much better than when he first came down the mountain, which was a significant improvement.
Setting up the living room didn't take long. Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Lu Lin took Shen He out for a stroll for a while.
He had been in Liyue Harbor for more than half a month and was quite familiar with it. When he went out shopping, he didn't necessarily want to buy anything. The main purpose was to help Shenhe get acquainted with the environment of Liyue Harbor and to continue to teach her some common sense about getting along with others.
When they returned from their shopping trip, Xiangling and Yaoyao had almost finished their work, and the aroma of the food could be smelled from afar.
Xiangling's cooking skills were undoubtedly superb. By evening, a table full of delicious dishes, with perfect color, aroma, and taste, was ready. At this time, Ganyu, who had just finished get off work, also came over.
She was accompanied by Ying and Paimon, whom Gan Yu had invited.
Everyone takes their seats.
Gan Yu sat to Lu Lin's left, with Ying and Paimeng to his right, and Xiang Ling and Yao Yao next to Paimeng. To Gan Yu's left was Shen He, and next to Shen He was Xian Yun.
"Today isn't really a special day, but Gan Yu said that since Shen He has arrived in Liyue Harbor, it would be best for him to get to know everyone and have a meal together. So, we ended up having this meal today."
"Now that you young people have all gotten to know each other, you should help each other and work together as one."
When Xianyun spoke, he really had the air of a patriarch, and everyone nodded repeatedly, indicating that they were listening.
"Alright, I don't like formalities, and it's not a good time to chat during meals. Enough said, let's all try Xiangling's cooking!"
It was said that it wasn't a good time to chat during a meal, but the atmosphere at the table was quite lively, with everyone talking about everything and having a great time.
Xianyun was clearly bursting with energy. After a few rounds of drinks and several dishes, she put down her chopsticks and began to show off her excellent conversational skills.
"Speaking of Gan Yu, there are many interesting stories from her childhood. Let me tell you about them."
As soon as she spoke, Gan Yu sensed something was terribly wrong: "Hey, True Lord Liuyun!"
But it's too late.
“Gan Yu’s favorite thing since she was little was to have the horns on her head touched. When I was taking care of her, she would only fall asleep if I touched the horns on her head.”
"Really?" Paimon looked at Gan Yu's horn with an eager expression.
Lu Lin smiled, thinking to himself, "I can vouch for this, it's true. She even likes it when I ride her from behind and she lets me hold onto her two horns!"
Seeing the smile on Lu Lin's lips, Gan Yu knew exactly what this lecher was thinking, and her face flushed even more.
Lu Lin quietly took her delicate and soft hand in his left hand. If he wasn't worried about affecting Ningguang and Hu Tao, he would have teased her like he did at Wanmintang last time.
Xianyun verbally tortured her while he teased her from below; her expression must have been priceless. What a pity!
Just as he thought of this, he glanced at Ying, who was listening to the story with a smile on her right, and suddenly had an idea. He couldn't tease Gan Yu, but he could tease her!
Ying and he were standing quite close. Without her noticing, Lu Lin put down his chopsticks and placed them under the table with his right hand, then quietly slipped his hand under Ying's skirt.
Completely unprepared for Lu Lin's move, the blonde girl, caught off guard by the sudden attack, trembled slightly, her face instantly turning a delicate pink.
Lu Lin was quite familiar with the scene inside. Before she could react, he lifted the cloth and went deep into her cleavage, touching a key spot and gently kneading it.
This attack was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Ying, who was physically sensitive. She subconsciously arched her body slightly to resist the strange sensation that kept rising.
With so many people at the dinner table, I absolutely cannot let anyone discover my current predicament!
But this act of adultery in front of everyone brought her great psychological stimulation. Lu Lin had only been playing with her for a minute when he felt the beauty suddenly tense up, and then his fingers came through an incredibly moist touch.
Hmm... this is fluorescent water, right?
Chapter 72 The Firefly, Thinking It Was Hidden, Was Leaky on All Sides
Lu Lin couldn't help but sigh, "This girl is getting more and more sensitive. It's only just begun and she's already overwhelmed with emotion."
Ying kept her head down, afraid that others would notice that something was wrong with her expression. After finally calming down, she resolutely grabbed Lu Lin's hand and moved it away.
