A Bath Between Master and Disciple?
The old man clearly cared about Hua, but he still stubbornly refused to admit it.
Kevin's lips curled into a slight smile as he grasped and caressed Fu Hua's soft hand, secretly cursing the stubborn emperor beside him who was saying one thing but meaning another.
But that makes sense.
Even in the eyes of the Sun God Emperor Yan, Nüwa had "died" because of her disobedience, and from then on parted ways with the Tiandao Palace, becoming Jingwei.
However, Dihong Kun's feelings for this adopted daughter were quite profound.
According to mythology, the Sun God Emperor Yan wrote a eulogy after Nüwa drowned.
The cry of Jingwei moves heaven and earth!
The mountains are verdant, and people live among fish and insects!
My beloved daughter cannot speak, and her father is filled with grief!
Why is the sea so restless, with its waves surging and crashing!
Perhaps the history hidden in myths is truly lost to history.
However, Dihong Kun's words and actions just now were enough to prove the position of this imperial daughter Jingwei in his heart.
After all, his son died young, and the hierarchy and class divisions on Lieyang Star were quite evident.
Therefore, the higher Dihong Kun stood, the more lonely he felt.
After Fu Hua entered the heart of this Heavenly Emperor of Lieyang, she gradually filled the void in his heart and took the place of his son.
The cute and affectionate nickname "Nüwa" indirectly proves that Dihong Kun truly hoped that Fu Hua could be pampered by his side and even take over the Tiandao Palace.
However, each side had its own principles, and ultimately they went their separate ways.
Similarly, Dihong Kun's influence on Fu Hua is also particularly important.
This Nine Heavens Xuannü Maiden had an unfortunate childhood; her parents died early in the catastrophe caused by the rampaging Honkai Beast.
The previous generation's Himeko did indeed provide her with a motherly warmth during her upbringing.
But for thousands of years, her father's love has been absent from Fu Hua's life.
Later, the appearance of Dihong Kun clearly made up for this deficiency.
Therefore, even if this adoptive father is domineering and wants to conquer the Shenzhou, expand the territory for his daughter, bind Lieyang and Fu Hua together, plan her life, and decide the fate of China,
However, Fu Hua ultimately only managed to drive away the gods of the Lieyang through the Queen Mother of the West.
Even after the Kunlun catastrophe and the second reunion of father and daughter, Princess Jingwei, despite facing Dihong Kun directly, never truly harbored resentment towards her stubborn and arrogant elder.
However, "doll"...
I can't take it anymore, this nickname is too cute...
The man's thoughts raced, but once a certain word surfaced in his mind, his expression instantly became serious.
"Don't laugh!"
Fu Hua gritted her teeth, making a crunching sound, wishing she could tear a couple of ounces of flesh from the corner of someone's mouth as they laughed so hard they were convulsing.
Princess Xuan Nu's deeply buried head flushed with embarrassment, her delicate eyebrows raised in a cold expression. Her usual calm and composed demeanor was now tinged with a sense of shame and childlike innocence.
"Jingwei, thank you for taking care of her."
At this moment, the Heavenly Emperor of Lieyang, who had regained some of his health, strode over and solemnly thanked Kevin, showing great admiration for the young man who had repeatedly resolved crises.
Kevin exchanged pleasantries, then held Fu Hua's soft hand tightly, the close relationship between the two self-evident, his attitude quite frank.
Speaking of which, when he previously asked Dihong Kun to come out of seclusion and go to Freyja to investigate the Void Nexus, he promised to bring Fu Hua back to "come home for a visit".
Now, this can be considered fulfilling his promise. However, a son-in-law who can force half of his future father-in-law to bow his head and admit his mistake naturally doesn't feel intimidated.
Immediately, Dihong Kun looked at Reina, who was curiously observing her surroundings and was clearly distracted, and shook his head helplessly. At the same time, his eyes sharpened, and he made a decision in his heart.
"Besides Jingwei, I want to entrust Reina to you as well..."
Ah?
Kevin paused for a moment, his expression turning strange.
"Pan Zhen might be able to, but he's too straightforward and lacks adaptability."
"If I were to meet with misfortune one day, I would rather Reina not bear the burden of any Lieyang radiance..."
"Pan Zhen is enough here. Reina still young; as long as she survives..."
Dihong Kun murmured softly, his gaze gently falling on Fu Hua beside him, seemingly reflecting on his educational philosophy in light of his daughter's past disobedience.
Thank goodness, thank goodness, it was this trust...
Kevin gently patted his chest and exhaled with relief.
After all, he was really confused when the other side suddenly shoved that crazy woman, Reina, into his lap.
The man nodded, seemingly relieved, but a deep gloom lingered in the depths of his eyes.
Even Dihong Kun had lost hope for the future and even entrusted his son to someone else on the spot. Could it be that the Void is truly invincible?
However, the Heavenly Emperor of Lieyang did not notice Kevin's delicate thoughts. Seeing that he had already agreed, he seemed to have put down some worries and appeared more relaxed than ever before.
Immediately afterwards, Dihong Kun leaned lazily against the railing and patted him on the shoulder.
"Alright, after the Divine Power Conference concludes, I'll take you somewhere..."
The ancient deity gazed at the deep starry sky and murmured softly.
"A place where the truth can be seen..."
Kevin nodded solemnly, vaguely sensing an oppressive feeling hidden in the darkness of the universe.
Due to his busy schedule, the man bid a brief farewell and then activated the Space Stone to return to City of Angels.
As the light faded, warships hovered in the sky, and many familiar figures were invited to vacation there.
They were having picnics on the grass, holding tea parties under the pavilion, strolling around in small groups, or playing cards and chatting together, seemingly enjoying themselves immensely.
Seeing this, Kevin's guilt lessened slightly. He smiled and quietly slipped into the entertainment venue.
So this lazy Angel King passed through it, fully utilizing his talent as a troublemaker.
He might take a plate of pastries from a tea party with Ada, Cocolia, Hatsune Miku, Mio Sumiya, and others, and chime in with a few words...
After being kicked out, he hung out with the Valkyrie of St. Freya, showcasing his culinary skills by creating a bunch of charred, crocodile-skin-like dishes on the grill.
Furthermore, someone conspired with Siegfried to persecute Kiana, adding food to the tray of the tearful white-haired girl and stealing her roasted meat to offer to her father and ancestors...
Having wreaked havoc on the Hyperion's ingredients, Kevin extended his wicked hand into the card game played by Tokisaki Kurumi and the other elves and God's Child.
Although someone's card skills were decent, their luck was simply too bad. After a few rounds, they used the power of the Infinity Stones to steal or switch cards, or to spy on others from the shadows.
Therefore, it has successively ruined the harmonious and simple atmosphere of gambling.
However, the guy who inadvertently revealed a flaw was caught red-handed by Tokisaki Kurumi, who controls time.
The enraged girls pinned someone down, demanding an explanation, but were eventually bribed by Kevin with a large bag of snacks, causing the organization to fall apart.
However, even so, Kevin had to move on to other places and, together with a group of scholars including Sakurami Haruharu and Hexi, began to seriously discuss the adaptive deployment of the Angel Gene.
Unconsciously, laughter and chatter spread with the addition and mischief of someone, filling the air with a joyful atmosphere.
On the castle wall, a pair of figures gazing into the distance saw someone weaving through the flowers, their eyes flashing with a strange, unreadable meaning.
Chapter 1114, Section 1161: Master and Disciple Bathing Together?
At night, in the large and magnificent bathtub, surrounded by steaming mist, Kevin leaned against the edge, letting the milky white water wash over his skin, and his fatigue gradually disappeared.
After enjoying himself, the man snapped his fingers and skillfully retrieved a fruit platter and chilled drinks from a nearby spatial node.
As Kevin drank alone, a strong sense of familiarity made him smile slightly.
The memories of living in the City of Angels for 30,000 years in his dream were indeed based on Keisha's real experiences, so he was very familiar with this place.
Everything seems the same, but for some reason, I feel like something is missing.
Kevin raised his hand, threw a piece of bright red fruit into his mouth, chewed, pondered for a moment, then tapped his head to come back to his senses, a hint of unnatural embarrassment appearing on his face.
Uh, Keisha, who was supposed to launch a night raid, is missing...
Although the man tried to avoid thinking about it, the more he was reminded, the more erotic thoughts arose in his mind, and the Angel Queen's all-too-familiar body outline kept appearing before his eyes.
Just as Kevin was lost in his fantasies, two crisp footsteps echoed down the corridor leading to the bathhouse.
Keisha is back?
As the beaded curtain was lifted, the man instinctively turned his head nervously, but the face reflected in his eyes froze his anticipation.
Because the two figures who came as a team were none other than Keisha's Right Wing Guard, Yan and Zhixin.
"Your Majesty, these are the formal attire we rushed to make for the Divine Power Conference. We need you to try them on tonight."
Angel Yan spoke calmly, with a businesslike attitude, and the sight of her half-exposed body on the water did not stir any emotion in her heart.
After all, the number of people this Lightning War God had killed could fill an entire bathroom, so this level of exposure was naturally insignificant.
"There are also some... everyday clothing items; you'll need to check the sizes and styles..."
Meanwhile, Zhixin, standing beside her, had a flickering gaze and her face was slightly flushed, whether from the steam or from her own shyness. After putting down the tray, she turned her face away.
"Okay, I'll try on the clothes, you guys..."
Kevin sighed and was about to dismiss the Right Wing Guard standing behind him on the left and right when he heard the crisp sound of armor plates hitting the ground and a rustling sound.
"What... are you doing?!"
The man turned around with a look of horror in his eyes, and hurriedly retreated into the mist.
"To serve..."
"Taking care of the King of Angels's daily life is the duty of the Right Wing Guard..."
Angel Yan responded indifferently with a taut face, most of her body already exposed in a thin layer of mist.
"Um, I'm a guy..."
Kevin's mind was a bit confused, and he awkwardly offered a reminder.
"If you have any physical needs, Sister Yan and I will take care of them..."
"So please don't make things difficult for the other sisters..."
Slightly slower to react, Zhixin steeled her resolve and reached out with both hands for the ties on her skirt armor.
"Bang! Bang!"
At the critical moment, two sharp taps landed on the back of Angel Yan and Angel Zhixin, their lazy voices carrying a mix of exasperation and amusement.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?!"
Zhixin clutched her head and cried out, staring blankly at Hexi, who had appeared out of nowhere, her expression one of astonishment and embarrassment.
"Master, what brings you here?"
"You think you can turn the world upside down if I don't come?"
"Those two little girls are always thinking nonsense. What are they meddling in? Get out!"
Hexi, annoyed, used a wormhole algorithm to put the clothes back on the two women and then kicked them out of the bathroom.
"Heavenly Foundation King, we can handle this, you don't need to feel wronged..."
Angel Yan responded solemnly, her face showing a strange sense of relief.
But before he could finish speaking, he was swallowed up and transported by the Space Wormhole.
Silence returned to her ears, Hexi clapped her hands in satisfaction.
"Alright, at least we've gotten rid of those two troublesome little girls, we..."
However, when the Heavenly Foundation King looked down and saw someone's reaction, his expression stiffened.
What do you mean by that?
"Self-defense..."
At this moment, the Angel King huddled in a corner shrouded in mist, wrapped in a large bath towel, a solid barrier of light surrounding him, his face full of vigilance as he assumed a defensive posture.
