This is a refreshing and straightforward novel with no deep meaning. Please do not expect too much from the author. I know there are logical flaws because I wrote it without much thought.

Chapter 123: One-Day Tour of Elf King City
Under the guidance of Xize, Chu Yi and her group arrived at where they would stay for the night.
Judging from the passers-by, this should be the residence specially allocated by the elves for their guests. Except for a few patrolling elf guards, those coming and going are all familiar old faces, almost all of whom are celebrities with some international fame.
The elves were quite attentive when it came to arranging accommodation. The accommodation arranged for the guests is very close to the Queen's palace. Standing on the balcony of the tree house, everyone can overlook the exquisite palace not far away.
Hearing the noise outside, representatives from various countries who arrived earlier stuck their heads out from the balcony to observe the flower planting situation.
Although they are now deep in the mountains and forests, the signal here is still very good. At least everyone knows what happened a few minutes ago.
Some people had some guesses about the flower-growing representatives' sudden outburst, while others were completely confused. I thought that because of his own strength, the flower grower became arrogant and even lost his previous humble appearance.
These countries that were confused about the situation couldn't help but feel less interested in growing flowers, and they looked at Chu Yi and the others with fear and deep dread in their eyes. I am afraid that after the succession ceremony is over, these countries will once again consider their attitude towards interacting with China.
Perhaps it will cause some ongoing collaborations to come to an end.
However, neither Chu Yi nor Duan Shi paid any attention to their gazes.
Which world-class power is not feared? Long before the revival of spiritual energy, flower planting had been feared by countless small countries.
A peaceful and friendly attitude cannot really conquer a country. The exchanges between countries are never based on their usual diplomatic attitudes. Just like Country M, which usually acts so domineeringly, even arrogant enough to directly provoke a war between the other two countries, but still has countless small countries following behind it.
As long as you can bring them benefits, these politicians will agree with you with a smile even if you curse at them in person.
Of course, this example is too extreme and generally does not occur. I just want to say that I don't really care about their attitude.
To take a step back, even if things develop to the most extreme situation and all countries in the Western Hemisphere unite to boycott flower planting, today's flower planting will not care. They are now the true masters of the Eastern Hemisphere, and even the slightest stomp of their feet can cause a stir in the Eastern Hemisphere.
Some time ago, due to the rampant demons, the dozen or so small countries around China could no longer hold on and chose to merge into China and become a province of China. In the future, there will be no history of those countries in history, only provincial chronicles of a certain province.
After this incident, the territory of the flower-growing country more than doubled, and its population instantly soared to become the largest in the world.
In this situation, it is only the flower-growing countries that should be humble and courteous and not cause trouble. How can other countries have the turn to criticize the flower-growing countries?
That's why Duan Shi didn't stop his classmates from venting their anger on the flying boat. Even if they really start a fight and cause an international stir, we won’t be afraid. At worst, we can call these geniuses back to the country first, and then release them after the storm has subsided a little.
Ignoring the looks of the people around them, Chu Yi and his group said goodbye to Xize and went into their respective tree houses.
Everyone here is a distinguished guest who has been invited, so the elves will naturally not be stingy. They have prepared a beautiful tree house for everyone to choose from. Even if there is no style you like, you can ask the elves to make it for you to ensure that they can live comfortably during their stay in the elven tribe.
Monks like Chu Yi don't have high requirements for their homes. As long as they can shelter from wind and rain and ensure privacy, there is no problem. In fact, privacy is secondary. They can set up their own barriers anyway to ensure that no one can spy on what they are doing inside.
Without any hesitation, the group quickly assigned their own rooms. After saying goodbye to each other, they returned to their rooms to pack up.
We have been on the road for most of the day, and even monks need a temporary rest. Anyway, there is still time today, enough for them to tour the Elf King City.
But not everyone is so quiet. Not long after Chu Yi entered her tree house, she heard Gu Qianwen and Shi Fan calling her outside.
She stood up and went to the balcony and looked down. She saw two girls standing arm in arm on the street. Seeing her come out, he waved to her happily.
"Come down quickly, Xiaoyi, let's go for a walk together~"
It just so happened that Chu Yi didn't want to meditate, so when he heard them invite him, he nodded in agreement readily. She was too lazy to go out through the main gate. She took a deep breath and floated down from the giant tree which was more than ten meters high.
The breeze in the forest blew the girl's skirt and hair, and the bright sunshine shone through the gaps between the leaves, creating beautiful light and shadows shining on her. Coupled with her elegant figure and flawless appearance, Chu Yi at this moment is as beautiful as the Queen Mother of the West who has come down to earth.
Even foreigners with aesthetic barriers can't help but be intoxicated by her beauty.
At this moment, they completely lost the fear they had at the beginning and were only focused on indulging themselves in Chu Yi's stunning beauty.
The elves around her couldn't help but look at her with admiration. The noble and elegant elves love all beautiful things, and the beautiful and unreal scenery before them really touched their hearts.
If they were not afraid of offending the guests, many elves would not be able to resist coming over to get to know Chu Yi.
Shi Fan and Gu Qianwen stood on the street, looking up at the person falling from the sky, and were so excited that stars appeared in their eyes.
Shi Fan has always been a fan of Chu Yi, and she always looks at her through a ten-meter-thick idol filter. This dreamy scene, which seemed like a game CG, made her want to scream.
Although Gu Qianwen has seen many beautiful women, she has developed a strong resistance to a certain degree of beauty. But Chu Yi's appearance was beyond the ordinary, especially with the backdrop of her Jindan stage strength, she was so beautiful that people could not take their eyes off her.
Chu Yi came in front of them and looked at the intoxicated eyes of the two girls, and couldn't help feeling a little distressed.
It was fine before she started practicing. Although her appearance was exquisite, it was not to the point of being stunningly beautiful or alluring. Although passers-by would turn their heads when she walked on the street, it would never cause a sensation. But ever since she embarked on the path of cultivation, her beauty seemed to have been unsealed, reaching a level that was simply bewitching.
If this trend continues, Chu Yi simply can't imagine what the situation will be like after she breaks through the Mahayana stage and becomes a true immortal.
She had never had this kind of distress in her previous life, so she had no experience in dealing with it. She can't hide herself just because of what everyone thinks, right?
There is nothing wrong with having a beautiful appearance, and she doesn't want to hide her true self for the sake of outsiders. And she is also strong enough so that she will not suffer any hardship because of her appearance.
The saying "Beauty has always been short-lived" also depends on the person. As long as the strength is there, this stunning appearance is the icing on the cake and is the envy of everyone.
If there is anyone to blame for this, it might be that the system gave her a body that is too perfect.
After a little distress, Chu Yi put all these thoughts behind him. Then she joined the two girls arm in arm and began to tour the royal city.
Walking on the cobblestone road, the three girls looked at the surrounding scenery curiously.
They all knew that this was the work of the Elf Goddess. When the goddess woke up, she quickly transferred the elves here, and at the same time used her divine power to directly give birth to this city.
Including the royal city they are going to tomorrow, it was also created by the goddess.
However, since Wang Cheng and the temple were not open to the public at that time, Chu Yi and the other two could only wander around the city or go to the observation deck to look at the two buildings.
"I don't know if we can go into the temple tomorrow to take a look."
Shi Fan curiously leaned out of the observation deck and swayed playfully on it. She looked at the conspicuous temple in the distance and guessed, "It is said that the Elf Goddess lives in there. The elves should not let us in and disturb them, right?"
"I don't think we'll go to the temple."
Gu Qianwen stood beside her, leaning her arms on the railing of the observation deck, also curiously observing the palaces and temples in the distance.
The elves' royal city is already magnificent and exquisite enough, but the palaces and temples before them are even more exquisite. I may say something that may upset my fellow flower-growing people, but from a distance, that temple is even more shocking than their Xunzhen Academy.
She couldn't help but sigh with a little regret.
I really want to go in and take a look, but it seems impossible. If the gods are not here, there is still a possibility. Since the gods live there, to be honest, few of them are qualified to meet them.
If they were planting flowers with the help of a divine-level monk, the goddess might even condescend to meet him. They are just a group of rookie students. If it weren’t for the invitation from the country, they might not even be able to see the Elf Queen.
In fact, Shi Fan also agrees with Gu Qianwen's opinion. She said that only because she was really curious.
And after learning about the elves' prejudice against their flower-growing tribe, she was no longer so interested. I wanted to ask Jia Lan and Liu Jimeng to go out together today, but they both disagreed. If you are lucky enough to see it, consider yourself lucky; if you can’t see it, it doesn’t matter. Instead of wasting time, you might as well look forward to the experience after the ceremony.
After the three of them looked out into the distance for a while on an observation deck, they went to other places hand in hand.
This royal city not only has residential areas, but also many other functional buildings. Some were originally built by Chu Yi, and some were added later by the elves themselves.
From the appearance, the difference between the two is very obvious.
Things constructed with divine power are extraordinarily exquisite and natural, and each one can be called a wonder of the world. Although the things made by ordinary elves are also very exquisite and can be called works of art, when compared together, they feel like the works of children.
Chu Yi browsed through the city he had built and couldn't help but feel fortunate in his heart that the people coming and going were all people of high status who would not touch other people's buildings. Otherwise, by the time this ceremony is over, the Elf King's City will probably be half empty.
Don't underestimate human bad habits. After many banquets held by the upper class, the most stolen items are various tableware. Anyone who can attend such a banquet would definitely not be without one or two sets of tableware. It's just that I can't control my desire to steal.
Although even many social experts don't understand why these upper-class people have such quirks, it does not prevent everyone from understanding that noble character has nothing to do with status.
However, Chu Yi felt that even if some of the important figures who came to attend the ceremony really had such a quirk, they would probably force themselves to endure it. If you really do something like this, it would be fine if you are not discovered. But if you are discovered, it will not only be a moral incident, but also a racial dispute.
Other countries are not just planting flowers, they do not have the confidence to fight against one race. At that time, the only option left is to push the parties involved out as scapegoats, and the countries behind them will not take the blame for them.
No one wants to be abandoned by the country at this time, so no matter how many shameful things are behind them, they will pretend to be glamorous and make themselves appear to be of noble character.
Of course, Chu Yi didn’t notice anyone showing such thoughts, it was just a sudden idea. Because she had read a related news report before, which said that after a banquet abroad, the host complained that there were too many lost tableware and there were not enough to hold another banquet.
She remembered that many netizens at home and abroad regarded this as an April Fool's joke. In the eyes of the common people, what did those celebrities have? How could I possibly steal such a small thing?
But later the matter was even reported by official foreign media. Only after the host of the banquet faced the camera and showed the broken tableware in his home did everyone believe this absurd thing.
This incident completely overturned the image of the upper class, shattered the illusions of countless people, and even nearly implicated the stock markets of some companies.
That's why Chu Yi suddenly had this idea when he saw these perfect works of art today.
However, when she looked at the seemingly relaxed elf guards around her, she couldn't help but think that if anyone really dared to stroke the tiger's whiskers at this juncture, they would probably be executed on the spot by the elves. The jungle is the world of elves, and no one can hide from their eyes here.
Ignoring these wild thoughts, the three girls strolled slowly around the city for the entire afternoon and returned home only when dinner was approaching.
It is said that the elves have prepared special dishes for all the guests, which are well worth tasting. While traveling, they talked to people from other countries and everyone recommended it to them. Everyone raved about the dish and said it would definitely not disappoint.
This of course made them very curious, and when they saw that the time was almost up, they flew back to their base.
In the afternoon, they strolled to the outskirts of the city. A little further ahead was a dense forest. Now they had to get back, and the fastest way was naturally to fly.
It took them most of the afternoon to walk from the city center to the edge, but now it only took them a dozen minutes to get back from the edge.
Don’t think that they are too slow. You should know that when Chu Yi built the Elf King City, he occupied most of the forest. For such a large area, it only took them a dozen minutes to get there, which was considered fast.
When they were sightseeing in the afternoon, they did not actually walk out, but instead used Qi to fly a certain distance after sightseeing a certain distance. Although the appearance of each place in this royal city is different, there is nothing new after looking at it for a long time.
When he returned to his residence, Gu Jiayan was standing on the balcony outside his room, admiring the sunset in the sky.
This ordinary scenery that we see every day also seems to have a unique flavor against the backdrop of endless jungles and exotic customs.
Noticing Chu Yi and the others coming back, Gu Jiayan looked down at his sister and forced a gentle smile.
Before he started practicing Taoism, Gu Jiayan was also an extremely handsome man, and it was not an exaggeration to call him a rare talent among men. Now that he has embarked on the path of cultivation and has gone through a long period of cleansing his meridians and marrow, his appearance has become more and more outstanding, just like Chu Yi.
Against the backdrop of the setting sun, he smiled so gently that the people around him were stunned again.
"Wow~" Gu Qianwen exclaimed softly. The looks of these two siblings were simply stunning, and they overwhelmed everyone else.
She poked Chu Yi beside her in a subtle way and asked in a soft voice, "Xiao Yi, are you really not considering taking action against your brother? Be careful that your brother is snatched away by other women."
"To be honest, I still like you two as a couple."
"......"
A drop of cold sweat slid down Chu Yi's forehead, and he was a little speechless.
She knew that there were many CPs about her on the Internet, and none of the male classmates in her class escaped, including her brother. She also knows that people don't have any ill intentions and just like to watch sweet love stories.
Anyway, it's just for fun online, and it doesn't affect her real life.
Unexpectedly, there is an orthopedic CP fan lurking around her. No, that's not right, maybe two.
Helplessly bathing in the food-hungry eyes of her two friends on her left and right, Chu Yi felt the black line on her forehead almost drowning her. It’s fine if you’re just a CP fan, but why do you prefer orthopedics?
She explained feebly: "What are you thinking about every day? If I had other thoughts about my brother, I would have done it long ago. How could it be someone else's turn?"
"I have always had a simple brother-sister relationship with him, and Brother Yan has the same feeling towards me. And Brother Yan did have a girlfriend before, but we just broke up because we were not suitable. If he had any feelings for me, I would not have been single for so many years."
Seeing that the two of them wanted to say something else, Chu Yi quickly stopped them, "Alright, let's drop the topic! The meal is about to start, let's go back first."
After saying that, without waiting for Shi Fan and Gu Qianwen to react, he directly pulled the two of them and flew towards the tree house.
