Because the Xihe still needed further maintenance, Xu Milu spent the next six months traveling between several planes, almost never having a moment to rest.
Now that she has the coordinates of the interdimensional transfer station, she plans to go there first, and then fulfill Zhenyuan Daxian's request to find the lost ginseng fruit spirit.
This journey will not be short; it could take several years, several decades, or even several centuries.
So she planned to get everything settled before boarding the ship.
...
Old Hu acted quickly, and soon he carefully selected a batch of mountain spirits and monsters and sent them to the Mountain and Sea Restaurant. There were all kinds of monsters, including cat spirits, dog monsters, raccoons, and pheasants.
Of course, the majority were foxes, all of them young foxes that had not yet transformed into human form, or were not yet skilled at it.
"To be honest, ever since the news spread that you were going to choose a demon to serve you, all the demon kings and monsters in Chang'an and the surrounding mountains have been heartbroken."
These are all clever and obedient younger relatives from various families. They understand things quickly and are guaranteed to be a worry-free wife.
Old Hu chuckled and shoved the sleeping fox cub into Xu Milu's hands:
"This is my seventy-sixth granddaughter. If it's really not possible, you can keep her as a pet and let her bask in your spiritual energy."
Xu Milu could only sigh.
She's hiring spaceship service personnel, not opening a baby nursery. Sending a fox cub that's still nursing to her...
Hmm, it feels pretty good.
It feels fluffy to the touch, and it's not the same as feathers.
Why don't you stay?
Anyway, there's a children's playground on the spaceship, which will be a good opportunity for Dai Zi and Fanny to find a few more playmates.
Of course, this doesn't include old cucumbers like Red Boy and Nezha who are just repainted green.
Xu Milu also took some time to go to the post-apocalyptic world to send the antidote to Su He, and also anonymously ordered a large number of androids.
Meanwhile, in the Food Continent, the Green Wood Trading Company seems to have recently reached a consensus with more than twenty Lotus Root players to work together to develop new routes for exploring food.
Time flies, and the different speeds of time in different dimensions bring the sorrow of parting.
Aoki has matured considerably. He now wears a round lens over his right eye, and his former carefree and irreverent demeanor is completely gone. The only things that remain unchanged are his long, light green hair and deep blue eyes, just like in the past.
"That's amazing!"
Aoki stared intently at Xu Milu, his eyes revealing a complex and unreadable emotion:
"Lady Milu is still exactly the same as when we first met; it's as if time has stood still for you."
"You've done very well all these years. You've already paid back what you owed me. Are you willing to leave with me?"
Xu Milu noticed the change in the other person's emotions and frowned slightly.
"If you wish, I can take your family with me. Of course, just like with the Mountain and Sea Restaurant, the portal will open once every seven days, and you can still return to the Gourmet Continent."
"Lady Milu is indeed soft-hearted."
Aoki laughed, opening his arms to the wind, finally regaining some of his former arrogant demeanor:
"If it were the old Aoki, he would have agreed without hesitation."
Having seen such magnificent scenery, who would be willing to stay in one place, like a monkey sitting in a tree, only able to see the leaves in front of them for a lifetime?
But if I stay with adults all the time, I might develop unnecessary fantasies. Rather than spending my whole life chasing after an unattainable sun, it's better to give up early.
I'm a coward; I really don't want to experience that kind of pain.
Xu Milu: "..."
What are you talking about?
She just sent out an offer, so why are you bringing up a whole bunch of "leaves" and "sun"?
How come she didn't realize he was so artistic back then?
You should at least give me an answer, whether you're going or not.
Seemingly sensing confusion on her face, Aoki shook his head with a self-satisfied smile, his eyes filled with tenderness:
"Just consider it as me talking nonsense. It's good that you're always like this, sir."
...
Ah Chou has grown quite a bit.
Xu Milu stood on its head, and from a distance, it looked as big as a turd.
"Caw caw! Caw caw caw caw!"
Ah Chou had been ruling the Dark Forest for a long time, and with his incredibly thick shell and enormous body, he had become the tyrant of the forest.
Sun Wukong once said that Ah Chou is a divine beast called Da Ao that existed since the primordial era, and it will continue to grow as long as there is space.
Xu Milu had neglected it for a long time, and on this trip, she wanted to take it with her.
—Anyway, it's just a matter of chanting a spell to change the size; she's currently full of magical power, so it's naturally easy for her.
"Gaga gaga!! Gaga gaga!"
Upon learning of Xu Milu's purpose, the colossal creature roared joyfully to the sky. The enormous sound waves reverberated through the dense forest, causing sand and stones to fly, mountains to crumble, and the earth to split, startling away the demonic beasts within a radius of dozens of miles.
Xu Milu also took some time to visit the castle in Xike County and quietly took away the Arctic Wolf clan.
“Fanny is willing to follow Lord Qingluan. Wherever the Lord goes, Fanny will follow. This is a promise she made to the Beast God, and it will never be changed.”
The girl with short, silver-white hair and animal ears looked sincere and mustered her courage to shout out these words:
"Uncle Greer thinks so too, right?"
The tall werewolf remained silent and knelt before Xu Milu without hesitation, exposing the vulnerable back of his neck to show his attitude.
So Xu Milu packed up and took away thirty-seven Arctic wolf clan members from the castle, along with fifteen cat maids.
It is said that upon learning of this, the current acting lord, William Holmes Rayleigh Ackerman, who was engrossed in handling official business, crushed the magic pen in his hand, and his angry howl echoed throughout the entire castle:
