"So, to me, you are not only the first human being I have ever met, but also my savior."

Looking at the smiling face of the Eightfold Son of God, Su Xun couldn't help but feel a ripple in his heart.

After a moment of silence, he jokingly said, "Really? Then I am very happy to be the lifesaver of Yae Palace Master. I wonder how Lord Palace Master will repay me for being his lifesaver?"

When Yae Shen Zi heard Su Xun's words, she looked like she was smiling. She pretended to be thoughtful and said, "This is really a difficult question. I have no way to repay you for saving my life. How about..."

She paused for a moment, then suddenly leaned close to Su Xun's ear and whispered, "How about giving yourself to me?"

Listening to the beauty's soft whispers in his ears and smelling the refreshing fragrance at the tip of his nose, Su Xun's heart couldn't help but beat faster, and he had an urge to agree immediately.

He swallowed and spoke dryly: "Son of God... I..."

Yae Shinko smiled charmingly, took a step back, and said in a faint tone: "Did you think I would say that? Haha, you wish~"

Seeing the scumbag fox in front of him say this, Su Xun didn't know whether he should be relieved or disappointed.

To be honest, he had a very good impression of Yae Kamiko. After all, who wouldn't like such a charming and attractive fox demon sister?

It’s just that this palace official is too despicable and always likes to play tricks on people. Moreover, the fox demon has many faces and a complicated mind. Su Xun has no idea what she is thinking.

What if Yae Shinko was just joking but he took it seriously, wouldn't it be embarrassing for him?

Now it seems that she was just teasing him. How could this great demon with such great cultivation like a friend whom he hadn't seen for hundreds of years?

Su Xun looked at the Eightfold Son of God and gave a helpless smile.

"As expected of Lady Yae, who is both intelligent and beautiful, you are really hard to figure out."

Yae Shinko blinked and said with a playful smile: "Haha, if you can see through it easily, wouldn't it be too boring?"

Su Xun calmed down and was about to say something when he heard a rustling sound.

The two turned around and saw a little girl in ninja costume and a raccoon dog hat running out from the bushes, shouting that she had overslept.

Su Xun raised his eyebrows. Isn’t this a dry draw... No, it’s an early pomelo?

When Zaoyou saw Su Xun and Yae Shenzi, she froze in place, blinked, and was a little at a loss for a moment.

When Yae Shinko saw Zaoyou, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and said with a smile: "Little Zaoyou, why are you here?"

When Zaoyou heard Yae Shinko's voice, she came back to her senses and quickly saluted and said, "Master Yae, I... I came here to practice ninjutsu."

"Practicing ninjutsu?" Yae Shinko smiled and said, "Ha, I don't believe it. Are you lazy and sleeping here?"

Zaoyou smiled awkwardly, "Master Yajo is really wise... a wise man, I did slack off here for a little while, just a little while~"

"Really?" Yae Shinko smiled, knowing that Zaoyou was lying, but he didn't care too much.

She rubbed Zaoyou's little head as if she was petting a cat.

Zaoyou lowered his head, pursed his lips, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

If you keep touching me, I won't grow taller...

Although she thought so in her heart, Zaoyou didn't dare to say it out loud in front of Yae Shinto.

Yae Shinko seemed to see through Zaoyou's thoughts, so she withdrew her hand and said softly, "Okay, the final mission should have a mission for you, right? I won't keep you any longer, go now."

Upon hearing this, Zaoyou immediately stood up straight, bowed, and turned around to leave.

But before leaving, she couldn't help but look back at Su Xun with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

This person was actually walking in the forest with Master Yae, and they seemed to have a good relationship with him. Who is he?

Su Xun noticed Zaoyou's gaze, smiled and nodded to her.

Zaoyou was startled and then ran away quickly.

Seeing this, Su Xun scratched his cheek with a strange look on his face.

Are you that scary?

Yaejinko smiled and explained to Su Xun, "This little girl is a ninja from the final ninja group of the ninja organization under the shrine's magistrate. She is small and good at hiding, but she likes to be lazy and sleep. This often gives a headache to the miko in our shrine who is in charge of her."

After listening to Yae Shinko's explanation, Su Xun nodded and said with a smile, "I see. It seems she has quite a personality." Although he already knew Zaoyou's personality, he still nodded and said with a smile, "I see.

The two chatted and continued their walk in the forest, enjoying the tranquility and beauty of nature.

As time passed slowly, the distance between Su Xun and the Eightfold Son of God gradually shortened, and their communication became more and more natural.

Yae Shinko seemed to enjoy her time with Su Xun. She began to tell Su Xun about the customs and habits of Inazuma, as well as her own views on "eternity".

"Su Xun, do you know that the people of Inazuma's desire for 'eternity' is actually much stronger than I imagined." Yae Shinko said softly, with a hint of complexity in his eyes.

"Oh? What do you mean?" Su Xun asked curiously.

Yae Shinko sighed and said, "After the disaster five hundred years ago, the people of Inazuma lost too much. They long for stability, peace, and to not lose anything anymore.

So when Ying proposed the concept of 'eternity', they accepted it almost without hesitation."

"But does 'eternity' really exist? Or, is it really worth pursuing?" Yae Shenzi turned his head and looked at Su Xun with burning eyes.

Su Xun was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Son of God, I understand what you mean. 'Eternity' may just be an unattainable dream, but people always need some faith and sustenance to support them through difficult times."

“I don’t deny the value of ‘eternity’, but I think that true ‘eternity’ should not be achieved at the expense of change and development.”

Su Xun continued, "The real 'eternity' should be to find a balance and stability in constant change and development."

After hearing what Su Xun said, Yae God's eyes flashed with admiration.

"Su Xun, your ideas are very interesting." She said with a smile, "Just like five hundred years ago, you always bring me some new surprises."

Su Xun scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly.

The two continued walking in the forest, and before they knew it, it was getting dark.

Yae Shinko looked at the sky and said softly, "It's getting late, we should go back."

Su Xun nodded, and the two of them returned along the same path.
