Wendy got up and walked out of the Hall of Rebirth. In her hand appeared the lyre she hadn't seen in a long time. A gentle breeze enveloped the air, then a strong wind rose, making Hu Tao unable to open her eyes. Then, Wendy disappeared.
Transforming into a delicate breeze, Wendy wandered freely through the palace, listening to the servants' conversations and learning that Paimon was locked in the basement.
"Why is it the basement again?!" Wendy complained. This wasn't the first or second time he'd gone into the basement; he had to go in at almost every stage. Wendy was going crazy.
But after all, it's Paimon, Kong's most important partner, and Paimon is so cute, who could resist? For both personal and professional reasons, Wendy didn't want Paimon to suffer in prison.
The basement door was below the kitchen, and there were lots of delicious food displayed above the kitchen. Wendy thought that maybe Paimon was drooling over the food while struggling.
After imagining it for a moment, Wendy burst out laughing and squeezed into the gap.
Transforming into human form, Wendy began searching Paimon's room, where there were quite a few guards patrolling in armor.
Wendy sighed and turned into the wind again; this was still the safest way.
In the corner of a small room, Paimon looked at the tiny window in front of him, which was barely illuminated by a sliver of light, then at the large cell door behind him, which was no bigger than an almond tofu block, and then at the door opposite him, big enough for him to squeeze through. It was obvious that this cage had been specially made for him.
Paimon was getting anxious and almost cried. She had risked her life to save the traveler, only to find that he seemed more interested in her.
"No! No, no, Paimon, you can't cry, Paimon!" Paimon wiped away the tears that were about to fall, took a deep breath, and knew she had to conserve her energy. She couldn't let the traveler worry.
"Grumble." Paimon awkwardly clutched her tummy. Ugh, she was hungry again, but no one had brought her anything to eat yet. Paimon slumped onto the small bed, dejected. At least there was a bed, but it was so hard! Paimon missed the bed inside the Traveler's Dust Jar, which was soft and comfortable, with lots of little animals, and most importantly, lots of delicious food!
"Paimon?" Paimon looked up. Was he hallucinating? It sounded like he was hearing a street performer. Paimon was momentarily confused when a wind sprite appeared before him. A gentle breeze blew, and a chibi-style Wendy appeared in front of Paimon. "Hehe, this is my first time using this, Paimon. Do I look weird?" Wendy was still a little unaccustomed to transforming into a chibi form for the first time.
"Whoa, it's a busker!" Paimon wanted to rush over and hug Wendy, but Wendy vanished right in front of him, followed by the sound of guards' footsteps. "Did you call for reinforcements?!" The guard stood menacingly in front of Paimon, who was startled!
"Whoa!!!" The little girl's scream startled the guard, who covered his ears. While the guard was covering his ears, Wendy knocked the guard unconscious with a single slash and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Paimon, Kong's situation isn't good right now. Let me see if I can get you out." Wendy flew to the small window, looked left and right, and thought, "Hmm, it can be cut open." "Keep an eye on the guards, or you might never get out." Wendy threatened Paimon. "Paimon knows, I'm just a street performer, don't scare me." Paimon's eyes welled up with tears, and he took several steps back timidly.
Carefully manipulating the wind blades, Wendy slowly sliced through the basement walls. Outside lay the ice plains, where Paimon was imprisoned on the lower level. Wendy also saw a staircase leading downwards, where the true darkness lay.
Paimon was on high alert; this was a matter of life and death, and he might never see the Traveler again! Paimon needed to be reliable!
"Try it, see if you can squeeze through?" Wendy finished cutting in no time, and Paimon tentatively tried to squeeze through. It was okay, but his butt was still a little stuck. Wendy sighed silently and said to Paimon, "It might hurt a little, just bear with it." "Huh?" Before Paimon could react, he felt like he was being forcefully pushed out by something!
"Ugh!" Paimon was about to scream, but remembering what Wendy had said, he could only cover his mouth tightly with both hands to stop himself from shouting.
Wendy used a small, powerful gust of wind to shove Paimon straight out.
"Let's go." Wendy used a wind cage to trap Paimon, and then the wind carried Paimon back to the Hall of Rebirth.
Watching the Wind Cage carry Paimon further and further away, Wendy finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look behind her. "Come out, stop hiding. You all knew I was coming, didn't you?" "As expected of a foreign god, your insight is so exquisite." A handsome man stepped out from among the guards.
She was slender with thin, long eyebrows and phoenix eyes staring directly at Wendy. She had a gentle smile on her face, wore a white dress, a fox fur cloak, pure white gloves, pure white trousers, and white leather boots.
Her black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, its volume and quality making bald men extremely envious. The handsome man used a hairpin to tie it up.
Wendy looked at the handsome man: "You must be the ruler here." "Your Majesty has excellent eyesight. I am indeed the ruler of this world, my name is Ruixue." Ruixue said with a smile, "If you don't mind, Your Majesty, how about having a drink with me?" Suddenly, a voice appeared in Wendy's mind, a voice that kept tempting her: "Go, go."
Wendy shook her head. That was close; she almost fell for his trick.
Ruixue watched as Wendy broke free from his spell, but there was no surprise on her face. If Wendy had actually listened to him, then she would have found it very strange.
“As expected of a deity, my little tricks are nothing compared to yours. This time, I sincerely invite you to my home.” Ruixue said with a smile. Wendy thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement: “Okay.” “Your Majesty is so wise.” Ruixue clapped her hands, and immediately two people came up behind Wendy.
Wendy narrowed her eyes; this wasn't exactly a treat, it was more like...
Escort.
“Please.” Ruixue stepped aside, gesturing for Wendy to go first. Wendy glanced at him and walked in front.

With the new map released, I wonder if I can still clear most of the currently available maps within a day. That would make things much easier later on...
I wonder if I'll still be able to update once a day in the new version (I really want to grind).
