Yan Chiyu couldn't deny it; he did remember his aunt mentioning it when he was a child. His aunt said that she had seen an ugly-cute, silly beast and wanted to bring it home for him to raise, but she accidentally failed.
He never expected to hear the person in question complaining one day.
Yan Chiyu was about to apologize on behalf of his aunt when he suddenly remembered something and frowned: "Wait a minute, you just said you've never seen the God of Mountains and Seas?"
That reaction time... is quite long.
Wu Yue assumed that Yan Chiyu had heard her and was thinking about it himself, so she didn't remind him. Little did she know that it was because this guy was too slow to react.
“I saw him once from afar, but I couldn’t see him clearly.” Taotie felt a little guilty when questioned like this. “The Book God has no gender. When I saw him, he was wearing a mask, so I… so I…”
After Taotie finished speaking, he suddenly burst into tears.
This doesn't resemble the Taotie I've seen in books at all! It's so cute and cuddly!
[Yes, yes, yes, apart from having a fierce-looking face, his personality has absolutely nothing to do with being fierce.]
[Take this away! Take this away!]
I still love Lu Shufu the most, hehe.
"It's alright, it's alright. You're not the only beast that didn't see it. Lu Shu, Fu Zhu, and Wen Yao didn't see it either." Wu Yue squatted down in front of it and comforted it in a gentle voice.
Taotie raised its tear-filled eyes and stared blankly at Wu Yue's face, remaining silent for a long time.
Wu Yue then asked with a smile, "Taotie, my home is inhabited by many mountain and sea beasts. Would you like to come back with me?"
"good……"
Taotie, as if possessed, agreed to her request.
In the middle of the night, the two people and the beast returned to the hotel.
Taotie clutched the badge tightly, as if afraid of losing it or having it snatched away by someone else; there was no doubt that Taotie regarded the badge as its treasure.
This is his connection to the world of mountains and seas... his only connection...
Although there are many delicious foods in this world, for some reason, it always sheds tears whenever it eats something delicious, thinking of its former companions, the once-in-a-millennium feast prepared by the Book God for the beast cubs, and the days when they played together in the mountains, rivers, and snow-covered cities.
What once seemed like a tedious, repetitive daily routine has now become an incredibly precious memory for it.
Hold on tight.
Hold on tight.

Que Guanghuai's room.
"The gate..."
Mu Liuguang clenched her teeth in pain, trying to speak but only managing to squeeze out a single word.
Through her blurred vision, she vaguely saw the boy striding towards her. Suddenly, he knelt down and pulled her into his arms. "Liuguang, I'm sorry. If it weren't for my past life, if I hadn't said those things about wanting to marry you and making you wait for me, you would be a noble princess. You should have had a better, more suitable man..."
When Que Guanghuai said this, he seemed to have forgotten what the teacher had said in class about how ancient countries made friends by marrying princesses. He had even loudly echoed the history teacher when he said that!
But now, he is filled with guilt.
"No, no one! Que Linhuai, there is no one more suitable for me than you, and no other man can make me like you like this..."
As if provoked, tears welled up in Mu Liuguang's eyes and poured out uncontrollably. She cried so hard that her almond-shaped eyes turned red, making her already pale face appear even more cold and white.
The boy said in a low but firm voice, "I am Que Guanghuai, Mu Liuguang, I am Que Guanghuai."
Strands of white light flew out from his body and flowed into Mu Liuguang's body.
Mu Liuguang, who was crying her heart out, was unaware that her ethereal body was slowly taking on a physical form.
