It's Not Too Much to Call Me Mom, Is It?

"Susang's decision is not bad."

After thinking for a moment Fu Hua nodded.

"Master, this..." Qin Suyi's face showed surprise.

"Second Aunt, would you like to come with Chang'er too?"

Li Sushang's words interrupted Qin Suyi.

"This..."

Upon hearing this, Qin Suyi couldn't help but show a troubled expression.

Go to the Western Regions with Susang and Second Senior Sister?

... That doesn't seem impossible?

But if that's the case, then what about Master...?

"Shang'er wants to be with Second Mother!"

Li Sushang pitifully shook Qin Suyi's sleeve.

"Since Susang can't live without you, then Su Yi, you can go with her." Fu Hua nodded again when she saw this.

"Master, I..."

"I don't need you to take care of me now, and staying here on Tai Xu Mountain may not be a good thing for you, Suyi."

My seventh disciple is only in her early twenties this year, so why should I waste my time with her on Tai Xu Mountain?

Moreover, Fu Hua also knew that some things could not be undone.

Qin Suyi may not have really wanted to stay at Tai Xu Mountain; she just couldn't let go of her old feelings.

"After a few more years, when Shenzhou is at peace, I also wish to travel to the Western Regions."

Having said that, Qin Suyi couldn't say anything more.

"Going to the Western Regions together isn't so bad, since Fifth Brother is there too, and Miss Kallen is there as well."

Su Mei comforted Qin Suyi, who seemed a little down.

Unlike Otto, they actually had a relatively good relationship with Kallen —well, given Kallen's personality and charm, as long as their values didn't clash, everyone could get along very well.

"By the way, speaking of which, why didn't Miss Kallen come with you, Miss Otto, this time? Aren't you two... best friends?"

Speaking of Kallen, Su Mei suddenly remembered that the two were best friends—although Su Mei found it hard to believe that the two could become best friends.

"Her? She's dead."

Otto put down the bowl and said expressionlessly.

Best friend? Best friend my foot!

I didn't want to be my mother's best friend.

"Huh?"

Everyone else was startled, Cheng Lingshuang glanced sideways slightly.

When the two had their falling out, she was dealing with Lisa's situation with Elinor, so she didn't know much about it.

But... I vaguely sensed something.

Anyway, ever since that day, Kallen would occasionally give Otto a strange yet loving smile.

However, to be fair, their grandmaster was a member of the Tai Xu Sword Sect...

"Um... sorry, I was abrupt."

Su Mei was stunned by Otto's answer.

"But may I ask... what was the cause of Miss Kallen's death...?"

Although Kallen's fighting strength is not as good as her fifth sister's, it is about the same as the others, and she may even be better than them.

How could someone like that just die like that?

"I got hit on the head by a turtle that fell from the sky."

"..."

Where do I even begin to criticize this way of dying?

Su Mei tried her best to put on a polite smile.

"Just kidding."

"... I think so too, but joking about this..."

"Actually, I rammed her with my carriage, then got out and stabbed her eighteen... no, one hundred and eighty times."

"..."

Chapter 275 Is it too much to ask me to call you Mom?

[Simulation complete, rewards for this simulation have been distributed]

"I feel like I'm enjoying family life sixty years ahead of schedule."

Liu Bai, returning from the simulation, covered his forehead.

"Okay, although I've long since lost track of my actual age..."

After bringing Su Mei and the others back to Schicksal, Liu Bai's simulation time began its countdown.

After that, she and her disciples and grand-disciples, including Su Mei, lived peacefully in Schicksal for five years. The original acting archbishop Kallen, was the first to lie down in the hibernation chamber of the Imaginary Archive, followed by Elinor, Su Mei, and others.

Before Liu Bai finished his simulation, the only two little ones still jumping around outside were Vera and Li Sushang... well, not counting Himeko.

After all, this girl doesn't need a hibernation pod at all.

Liu Bai sighed and casually checked the simulated rewards.

He had no hope for the rewards from this simulation. At his peak, Otto might have had special skills, but back then, most of Otto's skills were learned from Liu Bai and Imaginary Archive.

The problem is that Liu Bai himself overlaps with a large part of the Imaginary Archive.

However, Liu Bai was somewhat prepared for this kind of thing, since it had been similar the previous times.

Well... to put it another way, I'm already a mature, old spirit master, and I can't expect to fleece my host anymore.

But when Liu Bai glanced at it, he actually discovered something interesting.

[Mébius Hypothesis lv4: A failed biological experiment hypothesis left by Dr. Mébius of the previous civilization. Acquiring this skill will grant an additional skill: Biology lv10]

I failed – Mobius

This thing... isn't this the record that neither I nor Otto could understand back then?

This thing actually appeared in Otto's simulation rewards...

Liu Bai was surprised but still chose this one—after all, he had no other choice.

Moreover, this can fill the gap in his knowledge of biology.

... Do I feel like I'm becoming more and more omnipotent?

While silently absorbing the vast amount of knowledge from the skills, Liu Bai glanced at the silver-haired maid dragon girl beside him, who was tilting her head.

"Bella, what's wrong?"

"... Master, you seemed to have disappeared just now?"

Bella's head, which had been tilted to the left, slowly tilted to the right, and she even sniffled a little.

"It's just an illusion."

Liu Bai replied dismissively in a flat tone.

Having strong perception is a problem; even if the simulated disappearance only lasts for a minute, it will still be detected.

That's how it was with Shibao back then, and that's how it is with Bella now.

Fortunately, Bella's senses weren't as sharp as her Shibao... or rather, Bella's sense of smell was just a strange one.

However, it's fortunate that Bella is relatively carefree and doesn't cause as much trouble as Shibao, otherwise it would have been quite a spectacle.

"Bella, why don't you go and rest first?" Liu Bai felt that in order to avoid any unexpected situations, it was best to send the dragon maid away first.

"Bella doesn't need to rest," the emotionless dragon girl said.

"... Weren't you just recovering from serious injuries?"

"I don't need to expend energy right now."

Bella looked at Liu Bai with innocent eyes.

Judgment-Class Honkai Beast + Herrscher. Although the Herrscher's energy level isn't high, the two combined can still fulfill the role of a follower.

Anyway, following its owner doesn't consume any energy...

"Is Liu Bai troubled by this child?"

Rita then poked her head out of the room.

"... Still awake? Rita?"

"It's not that I didn't sleep, but... I was woken up?"

Rita wore a gentle smile.

"And I am indeed a little worried that Liu Bai might be bewitched by some kind of silver-haired dragon maid with no personality."

"So you didn't sleep at all, did you?"

Liu Bai couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the smile on Rita's face.

"So, what advice does Miss Rita, who's up so late at night, have in mind?"

"It's hardly a suggestion..."

Rita smiled.

"I just think Kiana... or rather, Miss Sirin would be very happy to sleep with Miss Bella in her arms."

Bella, the subject of the discussion, tilted her head in bewilderment.

Liu Bai nodded in agreement with Rita's words. Wasn't this just shifting the blame?

Even if Bella is a femme fatale, she's still a femme fatale...

"Then let's call her and ask her to come over."

As Liu Bai possessed the doll, he nodded in agreement with Rita's suggestion.

However, upon hearing this, Rita revealed a slightly subtle expression, and casually opened the half-closed door completely, revealing Rita in her pajamas and... Kiana?

Wrong.

"... Sirin?"

Liu Bai's lips twitched as he looked at the girl with golden eyes in front of him.

"Has Kiana lost her mind or Fu Hua gone mad again? Why did she let you out?"

"You think I want to come out and see you, you bastard!?"

As soon as Liu Bai spoke, Sirin got angry.

Does she really want to see this bastard? If she weren't afraid he might do something unspeakable to Bella, would she have come over in the middle of the night?!

(I think even if the teacher wanted to, they couldn't do it.)

Kiana's consciousness couldn't help but complain.

(Hands-on is also an indescribable thing!) Sirin retorted fiercely.

If Liu Bai were truly a pure ghost, Sirin wouldn't be a concern. However, the problem is that Liu Bai currently possesses all sorts of interference abilities, except for lacking a physical form. He's practically no different from a normal person.

"I don't mean to argue with you... I just find it really unbelievable that you came out."

"Don't worry, the Herrscher of the Void is just an ordinary person right now."

Rita smiled and pressed down on Sirin, "Just an ordinary person~~"
