As the managers said, when night fell, the calm sea suddenly became turbulent. Some contestants were thrown off the boat and became food for sea monsters, while others had their rafts capsized and were completely wiped out.

The evening should have been beautiful and peaceful, but the broadcasts never stopped.

But it has nothing to do with Wendy and her group of four.

Wendy and Xiao went to bed early, while Grandpa Zhong was looking through the wish list. He noticed there was tea, even some that sounded quite expensive, but there was no hot water. Even with tea leaves, you can't judge the quality of tea without a pot of hot water. As for the Pursuer, he was lying on the roof of the cabin, legs crossed, hands behind his head, his large hat covering his face. Although sea monsters were trying to attack the ship, the old man's shield still provided reassurance.

At least, tonight is wonderful.

"Hmm... Is it morning? Good morning, Xiao." Wendy, who had woken up naturally, got out of bed and rubbed her sleepy eyes. The room next to her was cool, which showed that Xiao had woken up very early. Wendy yawned again, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, got dressed, and went out.

Xiao was practicing his shooting at the bow of the ship, with Zhongli beside him, occasionally offering pointers. The Wanderer, on the other hand, had come down from the cabin and was now at the bow, pressing down his large hat and gazing into the distance, seemingly lost in thought.

"You're all up so early." Wendy stretched, instantly distracting Xiao, who was then met with a flick on the forehead from Zhongli. "Don't get distracted." "Sorry, Lord Zhongli." Xiao winced, clutching his head, and refocused on practicing his spear technique. "Generally speaking, you got up a little late this time." Zhongli turned to Wendy, who scratched his head and said, "Really? I think I went to bed quite early yesterday." "It's already high in the sky. Bard, although I know you love to sing, you can't get up too late." Zhongli said slowly.

"Hey, we all know each other, stop being so formal, it's irritating. Want to go? The Tower of Trials? We're already at six hundred floors, you know. Xiao, and the Pursuer, who wants to go?" Wendy scratched his head and chuckled, turning his gaze to Xiao and the Pursuer. "Heh, if you want me to come along, that's fine, but don't hold me back." The Pursuer crossed his arms, his words dripping with sarcasm. Xiao frowned slightly but said nothing.

In fact, once you spend enough time with a person who is a traitor, you'll find that they are very eloquent and sarcastic, but they are not inherently bad. This sentence roughly means: I can go with you, but you can rest as long as you don't bother me.

"Hey, okay then, let's go." Wendy's eyes lit up. Someone willing to fight monsters was great! "Yeah, that's excellent." Zhongli rarely agreed. The Tracker felt he'd been tricked, but he had no evidence to prove it.

"So this is how you treat me?" On the other level, seeing the shield encasing him and the wind field in front of him, the Tracer soaring through the air, felt like his head was about to explode with confusion. Then he looked at Zhongli and Wendy; one had somehow produced two stone benches and a stone table, and the other had somehow produced a plate of melon seeds.

What does it mean to eat sunflower seeds while watching a play?

Looking at the monsters in front of him, the mechs were flashing red, and a mage was chanting. The Pursuer gritted his teeth and vented all his anger on these monsters.

A circle appeared on the tracker's body, and the outer edge of the circle was constantly expanding and contracting, which was a sign that it was locked on. The tracker dodged in the air, and there were also tiny wind blades that automatically tracked it.

"Ah, youth is wonderful, so full of energy." Wendy munched on sunflower seeds, watching the show. Zhongli nodded slightly; sunflower seeds were quite a treat, a nice little snack. "Impregnable." Seeing the Pursuer's shield was about to disappear, Zhongli cast another shield. "Don't even think about escaping~" The wind field vanished, Wendy turned and cast another, and then the two ancient gods began chatting, leaving the Pursuer alone to face the monster.

The level they reached this time wasn't very high. The main reason was that the Seeker was still angry and quit. Zhongli followed closely behind, and Wendy shrugged and also quit.

Back on the ship, the Pursuer immediately sat back in his cabin, crossed his legs, and ignored everyone. Xiao was still wondering what had happened when he saw Zhongli and Wendy also return to the ship. "Lord Zhongli, what's this?" Xiao's little head hadn't turned around yet, but Wendy pounced on Xiao, greedily inhaling the faint, refreshing scent emanating from him.

"Hmph..." The Tracer snorted softly after seeing the interaction between the two. Zhongli shook his head and returned to the cabin. The sea breeze made him uncomfortable, and it was more interesting to browse the chat area in the cabin.

"What's wrong?" Xiao was a little stiff, but he hugged Wendy. "Nothing, I just wanted to hug you." After Wendy finished speaking, she glanced at the Pursuer without leaving a trace. The Pursuer saw this, clicked his tongue, and turned away, ignoring her. "Hmm..." Xiao didn't know what had happened, but if Wendy needed it, he could give it to her.

"Alright, fully charged. The world's finest bard is about to begin plucking his strings~" Wendy reluctantly got up from Xiao, a lyre appeared in her hand, and she began to play music.

The music was still melodious and pleasant, carrying far from the ship. Even the restless sea creatures were miraculously quieted down after hearing it. This time, the music was soothing and calming. The pursuer, who had been feeling a bit angry, actually calmed down after listening to it.

However, it's a foregone conclusion that the two gods are slacking off, and the Tracer probably won't want to go to the Tower of Trials for the rest of his life.

"It sounds great!"

"It sounds so good!"

"As expected of my wife, she plays so beautifully. When are you coming home, honey? Our family's billions are waiting for you to inherit!"

"Whoever's urine is yellow, go and wake her up. I can't, I have diabetes, I can't let her have any sweets."

"I'm here, I'm here, I've been feeling hot lately."

"It's only daytime, and we're already at this barbershop. It's not good. What will people think of us if word gets out?"

"Let the rumors spread. Anyway, the Dragon Kingdom already dominates Blue Star."

"To say that we are the only superpower is an exaggeration, but our Dragon Kingdom is already the strongest nation."

The live stream audience was once again captivated by Wendy's beautiful singing voice, and the number of people in the hair salon was also countless.

"Even I have to admit, Wendy's singing voice is really nice, hmm... but he might get along well with the sect leader. The Lantern Festival seems to be coming soon, I wonder if I can make it back in time this time..." Zhongli thought.

(The data is still terrible, and I'm still lying down.)

I got my hands on a dead Xiaoxiao, but it came at a price.

No problem, we should be able to earn it back next month.

I'm asking for book recommendations every day, and topics like Genshin Impact, Venti, and the fate of the nation are all welcome!

So why was my book included in the discussion about being paired with Zhongli?
