Genshin Impact: Demon God of Shura

Chapter 38 Visiting the Palace of Demise

Looking at this exquisite and ancient stone palace in front of me, some of the materials are carved with intricate patterns in relief stone, which is several levels better than the stone houses in Morax.

"It's clear that the owner of this palace had a great artistic taste, and the carving skills were extremely exquisite, much better than some old antique hiding in a cave."

Lan Tian looked at Morax beside him and joked.

"Cough cough cough... old friend."

Morax, standing next to him, coughed a few times, looking slightly embarrassed.

"Pfft, hahaha... Thank you for the compliment."

Gui Zhong immediately understood the meaning behind Lan Tian's last words and chuckled softly.

Soon, the three entered the palace and sat together at a large stone table in the center, with Gui Zhong in the middle and Morax and Roltheus on the left and right sides respectively.

The host is in the center, and the guest is on the side.

A cup of tea was placed in front of everyone; of course, the teacup was an exquisite round cup.

Because the palace was dark and opaque, it was much dimmer than the outside, so a large amount of nephrite was used for lighting, giving the entire palace a pale blue hue.

It does have a certain charm.

"Nice lighting and decorations... Worth using as a reference for future architecture... It seems Gui Zhong really cares about his palace." Lan Tian looked around and praised.

"Of course. Although I'm not good at martial arts, I'm quite skilled in other areas. But, judging from what you just said, Lantian, you also know something about architecture?"

Gui Zhong said smugly, then looked at the blue sky with curiosity and asked.

"Yes. I demolished and rebuilt Morax's stone house. No, to be precise, I rebuilt a house in the sky. If you are interested, I can take you and Morax to visit it."

Lan Tian's words were full of confidence.

"Then I'll have to look forward to it, little blue sky brother~"

Gui Zhong winked playfully with his right eye, emphasizing the word "younger brother".

"Haha... Stay tuned, Sister Gui Zhong~"

Lan Tian winked playfully as well.

Because Lan Tian's ascension to godhood took far less time than Gui Zhong and Morax's, Gui Zhong would jokingly call Lan Tian "little brother."

Seeing the two interacting so playfully, Morax couldn't help but shake his head and smile helplessly.

“Gui Zhong, we’ve been keeping Morax waiting for quite a while. You and Morax chat for a bit first. I’d like to take a closer look at your palace; I’m particularly interested in the exquisite carvings.”

Lan Tian looked at the relief stone path on the inner wall of the palace.

"Okay, go ahead and watch if you want. If you have any suggestions, feel free to let me know."

Gui Zhong chuckled and then started chatting with Morax, while Lan Tian got up and walked to the relief pillar next to him to examine the patterns on it carefully.

"The patterns are exquisite and beautiful, the texture is smooth, and the visual appeal is vivid... If it can be preserved, it will definitely be considered a valuable historical artifact worthy of discovery and protection in future generations..."

.......

"The carvings all look great, this trip was definitely worth it... hmm?"

As Gui Zhong and Morax were talking, Lan Tian unconsciously walked to the relief stone wall facing the palace gate. Previously, because of the screen in front of the wall, Lan Tian hadn't paid much attention to the patterns, but now... um... why do the patterns on this relief stone wall look so familiar?

Lan Tian's expression grew increasingly strange, and finally, unable to contain himself any longer, he called out to Morax and Gui Zhong, who were chatting happily behind him:

"Um... I mean, fine, you can carve it, but why did you carve the scene of me sparring with Morax? I have no problem with that, but why did you give Morax a close-up in the background?"

Upon hearing this, Morax also looked at Gui Zhong with a strange expression. Gui Zhong, who had been all smiles, froze, stiffly turning his head to look at Lan Tian. Then, his face turned bright red, and he hurriedly got up and ran to Lan Tian, ​​frantically saying:

“Um… Morax… Rolcius… I… I’m… Ah! Morax, wait… this is…”

As Gui Zhong spoke, he caught a glimpse of Morax walking towards him out of the corner of his eye, so he ran in front of Morax and tried to block Morax's view.

but……

To block the view of two powerful demon gods, especially in front of a wall far larger than one's own body, is virtually impossible. Moreover, the two demon gods can use their divine sense to probe, making it impossible to block them at all.

Without a doubt, Morax saw the picture on the wall, his expression mirroring Lan Tian's strange one from the beginning.

Gui Zhong also gave up the last resistance, sitting in his seat with his face flushed red, covering his red cheeks and lowering his head without saying a word, while Morax and Lan Tian next to him stared at each other.

The scene was very embarrassing.

"Old friend, look at this..."

Morax transmitted his voice using divine power.

"Enough talk, Morax. I'll go find Gui Zhong and explain our views to him. I'll also show you my acting skills."

Lan Tian replied helplessly via telepathy, then sat down next to Gui Zhong and said somewhat awkwardly:

“Uh… well… well… actually… Morax and I don’t really care what kind of sculpture you create, we’re just curious to know how you depicted our sparring scene. And also…”

Lan Tian picked up his teacup, took a sip, and prepared for the upcoming performance.

To be honest, Gui Zhong's craftsmanship is truly exceptional; the carvings on the walls are incredibly lifelike, without a single flaw.

At that time, Lan Tian and Morax had already sensed the divine thought projected by Gui Zhong, but the two of them tacitly chose not to expose each other. However, they never expected that Gui Zhong would actually carve the scene of their sparring into a relief stone.

What surprised the two even more was that Gui Zhong not only sculpted them both so vividly, but also carved out the Shura Nuo mask that Lan Tian was wearing on his face at the time, and even gave Morax's back view and a close-up of Lan Tian's Shura Nuo mask.

"And another thing... why can Morax occupy most of the wall with just his back?! While I'm not even half the size of Morax?! I know you really want to ally with Morax, but you don't have to be so biased towards him, do you? We're both demon gods, so why is there such a big difference in our treatment?!"

After saying that, Lan Tian covered his chest and pretended to be heartbroken, exclaiming wildly to Chao Guizhong.

But Lan Tian's performance didn't stop there. After making his rant, Lan Tian stood up, went to the corner of the wall, squatted down, and hugged his knees.

What's even more amazing is that Lan Tian used his divine power to conjure a large patch of dark clouds above his head to shroud him, allowing him to fully express his feelings in front of everyone.

But Lan Tian was secretly trying to suppress his laughter, because he couldn't believe that this wouldn't make Gui Zhong get out of his previous awkward situation and burst out laughing.

Just as Lan Tian had expected, Gui Zhong burst into laughter at Lan Tian's exaggerated words and hilarious actions. Even Morax, who was aware of Lan Tian's penchant for creating a spectacle, couldn't help but chuckle at Lan Tian's antics.

If Funina were to come and see this, she'd probably give a thumbs up and haughtily say:

"As expected of my guard, his acting skills are absolutely superb!"

After laughing for a while, Gui Zhong looked at Lan Tian, ​​who was still squatting in the corner, and said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry:

"Um... I just sculpted you all based on what I saw from my perspective, I didn't have any bias whatsoever... Blue Sky, you're supposed to be a demon god, do you have such a weak mentality? Pfft—hahahahahaha!"

In the end, Gui Zhong couldn't help but burst into laughter again, because snowflakes were actually falling from the dark clouds above the blue sky, which was quite comical.

Of course, snowflakes are also created by divine power.
