By the time Ningguang returned, Zhao Chuan had already strolled around the Qunyu Pavilion. To be honest, it was no less impressive than a luxurious villa.

"Judging from your expression, it seems the core is working."

Zhao Chuan was making tea in his study when he calmly spoke.

"Ah."

Ningguang responded with a smile.

"Ah That's good."

Zhao Chuan calmly sipped his tea, looking at Ning Guang with a broad smile.

"You knew it would succeed all along?"

A hint of surprise and confusion flashed in Ningguang's eyes.

"Yes, I'm at least 90% sure."

Zhao Chuan remained calm as he spoke, inwardly thinking, "Nonsense, that's a gold stone, a gold stone worth 1,500 spirit stones! How could it not succeed!" But he only thought it to himself.

"Thank you."

Looking at Zhao Chuan's confident demeanor, a strange emotion welled up in my heart.

"Oh, darling, don't be so polite. After all, this is what your man should do."

Zhao Chuan grinned mischievously.

"Who's your darling? Don't call me that."

Ningguang's cheeks flushed slightly, but she spoke in a cool and aloof tone.

"Yeah."

Zhao Chuan suddenly grabbed Ningguang, who was sitting in a chair, and questioned her.

"Okay, okay, whatever you say, alright? Hurry up... let me go, it might be bad if someone breaks in."

Ningguang coughed lightly, her slightly flushed face avoiding Zhao Chuan's gaze. Just like that, Zhao Chuan wrapped his arms around Ningguang's slender waist. Ningguang avoided Zhao Chuan's eyes and pretended to struggle, pushing against Zhao Chuan's chest with her hands.

If the people of Liyue were to see their revered Ningguang defiled like this, they would surely pile up on top of each other at the Jade Pavilion, and even kicking Zhao Chuan wouldn't be enough to quell their hatred.

(Ahem, I've gone off-topic.)

Ningguang was stunned for a moment; she felt like she had just been forcibly kissed.

Just now, Zhao Chuan kissed Ning Guang's soft red lips with lightning speed, and then returned to his seat.

"Zhao Chuan, you!!"

Ningguang roared, her voice tinged with anger.

"What's wrong, Lady Ningguang?"

Zhao Chuan feigned ignorance and replied.

How could you steal a kiss from me?

Ningguang had never been kissed like that before, and she didn't know what to say for a moment, but it felt pretty good.

"Lady Ningguang's lips are so soft, would you like another bite?"

Zhao Chuan stood up with a mischievous grin and slowly walked towards Ning Guang.

"This isn't a good idea."

Ningguang didn't refuse this time, but stammered out her answer.

Seeing that Ningguang was no longer resisting, he took the opportunity to put his arm around her waist, stroked her white hair with one hand, and their lips met, enjoying the sweet moment. After a long while, they separated, Ningguang's cheeks were flushed, and she lowered her head shyly. To be honest, this was the time when a rich woman was experiencing her first love.

Zhao Chuan looked at the shy Ning Guang and gently hugged her, stroking her hair.

"Um, have you hugged enough?"

Ningguang said softly.

"Um,"

Zhao Chuan responded calmly, and then the two returned to their seats.

"Zhao Chuan, I have a question."

After a moment of silence, Ningguang looked at Zhao Chuan, who had a gentle expression, with curiosity and said...

"But it doesn't matter."

Now it was Zhao Chuan's turn to act aloof.

"I've heard that demon gods can freely transform into human form. I'm curious about your original form as a demon god."

Ningguang looked at Zhao Chuan with a question in her eyes.

"This……"

Zhao Chuan thought to himself with a dark expression, "Damn it, I don't even know what his original form was. I only saw that dying demon god for the last time in a dream. He was just a dark cloud, and then nothing happened."

“I was created from the wishes of the people, responding to their desires and bestowing blessings upon them. This body is my prototype, not some bird or beast.”

Zhao Chuan thought for a moment and then responded.

"That's it."

Ningguang visibly relaxed, and her expression became more natural. The reason she asked this question was because this was her first time dating, and her partner was a demon god. It meant that she might be dating a monster or an animal, and she still couldn't quite accept this outcome.

"Okay, I'm going out for a walk. You go ahead with your work."

Zhao Chuan waved his hand and said.

"OK, all right."

Ningguang nodded, reverting to her aloof demeanor.

Zhao Chuan then got up and walked towards the door. Ning Guang watched his retreating figure in the distance, a sweet smile appearing on her lips.

After Zhao Chuan left, Ning Guang continued to handle her official duties, but her thoughts remained on the kiss they had just shared, thinking to herself, "I've really fallen for him."

Ningguang's fantasy was interrupted by the appearance of Yelan.

"Ningguang, why is your face so red?"

Ye Lan said with a puzzled look.

"Ah, it's nothing. What's wrong, Yelan? Is something the matter?"

Ningguang realized what was happening and said awkwardly.

"Ningguang, you wouldn't actually be in a relationship with that demon god, would you?"

Looking at Ningguang's expression, Yelan guessed what was going on.

"Ahem, um."

A slight blush appeared on Ningguang's face as she gritted her teeth and admitted it.

"Damn, even the dignified Ningguang has fallen for love."

Ye Lan teased.

"Ahem, let's get down to business."

Ningguang felt embarrassed to listen to these jokes anymore, so she changed the subject.

"Oh, so the investigation into that demon god's background that you asked me to do has come to fruition."

Yelan handed the record to Ningguang and said.

"The God of Blessings has existed in the world for over three thousand years, but unfortunately, that's all the evidence we have. As for why he was absent from the war between immortals and demons and the war between demon gods, the immortals have concluded that he hasn't been born yet."

Ningguang was shocked when she saw the records, but she didn't understand why the baby hadn't been born for so long.

"The Immortal Lord Liuyun Jiefeng has some connection with the God of Blessing. According to her, this God of Blessing was born a few months ago, and he was very weak at that time."

After listening to Ye Lan's story, Ning Guang gained a deeper understanding of Zhao Chuan.

"So, according to you, he's only six months old now."

Ningguang said, unable to believe it.

"From a human perspective, yes, but from the perspective of immortals, he is an old monster who has lived for three thousand years."

Ye Lan nodded and said.

"Tear, this is terrifying to think about."

Ningguang shook her head and said.

To be honest, Zhao Chuan was less than eighteen when he transmigrated. After inheriting the Demon God's body, he absorbed the Demon God's three thousand years of memories and almost went into a demonic state. Later, due to forbidden knowledge and his connection with the World Tree, another flood of memories rushed into his brain, almost causing it to crash. If it weren't for the Great Compassion Tree King's guidance, Zhao Chuan would probably have been lost in the World Tree long ago.

Because of his connection to the World Tree, the forbidden knowledge on Zhao Chuan's arm disappeared along with the Great Compassion Tree King.

But Zhao Chuan was unaware that he was cultivating in the giant bird's cave, leaving the giant bird to sit on a stone stool and study machinery.

"That despicable Zhao Chuan actually occupied my cave dwelling, that's too much."

The large bird cursed breathlessly, but Jade Wings was still busy researching the mechanism.
