Zhang Ze is still being held, over at the Thousand chanism Pavilion.
Lily is working on her little inventions, with the small Fuji circling around her.
"Sigh, senior brother is lost, should we go look for him?"
"The Sect Leader is right there, what else can we do besides causing trouble if we go? Ah, ah..." Lily quickly put down what she was doing, turned her head to the side, and let out a big sneeze.
"Achoo, we should just stay ho obediently." Lily rubbed her nose and redirected her focus to the array in front of her.
"But aren’t you worried?" Fuji extended a small tentacle and handed Lily an Array Talisman.
"Worried, but because I’m worried, I mustn’t add to the boss’s trouble, ah... ah, achoo."
After the second sneeze, Lily paused for quite so ti before continuing, "When the boss triumphantly returns and sees I made him a new invention, he’ll surely be overjoyed, and there’ll be a big bonus!"
"But don’t you already have lots and lots of money? Why still want a bonus?" The concept of money was lost on little Fuji, who didn’t understand.
"You don’t get it, this is called having your cake and eating it too. What’s mine is mine, and others’ can also be mine, freebies are the best."
After sharing her twisted logic with little Fuji, Lily put the last Array Talisman in place, checked everything over, then packaged it in a box, wrote a label, and sent it through the Teleportation Array to Dragon Tiger Mountain for further processing.
Lily was well aware of her own limitations; she couldn’t refine many high-end Magical Artifacts, so she’d send them over to Dragon Tiger Mountain or the Sword Sect to ask the big shots for help.
However, as soon as the crucial component of the Thousand Machine Armor was sent off, Lily suddenly beca agitated. She jumped off the high stool and started pacing the room with her hands behind her back.
To say she wasn’t worried would be a lie.
But she didn’t know what to do.
However, Lily’s agitation quickly disappeared after she sneezed for the third ti.
Suddenly, she wasn’t worried anymore.
Because of the sneeze.
But just as she was about to share her mystical insight with Fuji, little Fuji wrapped her up with its tentacles.
"If you’re catching a cold, you’ve got to take dicine, co, let see!"
"Ugh, let down, don’t poke my throat, ugh..."
After a futile struggle, a gooey Lily was put back on the ground by little Fuji.
Slapping a Cleaning Talisman on her forehead, Lily said to little Fuji, "I’m not sick!"
"Then why are you sneezing?"
"Because the boss is badmouthing !" Lily sat back at the table and took out a brand new thick book from the Storage Ring.
"Great Lily’s Book of Hatred"
"Every ti I sneeze three tis in a row, it’s because the boss is badmouthing and tarnishing my wise and majestic image." Lily added a note on the half-written first page.
[June 1st, the boss is badmouthing again behind my back. Whenever there’s sothing bad, the boss blas . I hate it, but there’s nothing I can do.]
[Unless there’s extra pay.]
After thinking for a while, she picked up the pen and added another note.
[June 1st, little Fuji 1008 played with using its tentacles again. I seem to have beco her toy. I hate it, but still, there’s nothing I can do.]
[Rember it, when I reach Mahayana cultivation, I’ll play back for sure!]
Putting away the new Book of Hatred and casually stuffing little Fuji in her bosom, Lily said, "Since the boss has the leisure to gossip about , it shows he’s not in any imdiate danger. Never mind, let’s grab a al."
"Yay!" little Fuji cheered with a wave.
...
Ghost City Secret Realm.
Facing the Wooden Fish Taoist’s questioning, Zhang Ze suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
"Tell , Holy Son, who is this person nad Lily and why does her na appear on the Great Mother Goddess’s Sacred Artifact?"
In front of Wooden Fish Taoist was part of a brand new assembly line, not yet fully put together.
And Lily’s ostentatious and lengthy title was prominently engraved at the most conspicuous spot.
[Great and Wise Lily the Great Emperor · Limited Edition for This Winter]
How on earth to explain soone else’s na being on a divine artifact granted by the Great Mother Goddess?
However, Zhang Ze quickly thought of a solution.
Word-by-word analysis of classics is an essential skill for a charlatan; an excellent Holy Son should possess a certain literary flair.
For example, expanding a five-character sentence by quoting classics and turning it into a thesis.
As long as there was a character in the Great Mother Goddess’s canon that sounded similar to ’Li,’ Zhang Ze was confident he could spin it into a believable fib.
Moreover, he had the Understand Brother Profound Identification Treasure Mirror at his side to assist.
"You are disloyal!" Zhang Ze reemployed his old trick, giving Wooden Fish Taoist a Bounce Back.
"How am I disloyal!" Wooden Fish Taoist was a bit flustered, although his pronunciation wasn’t accurate, he still recognized the characters; the Great Mother Goddess’s canon never ntioned a person nad Lily.
"Standing at Prisoner Mountain! Look here."
Zhang Ze dragged Wooden Fish Taoist to sit down and called all the Assistant Priests over, grabbed the Redwood Vine stick from Wooden Fish Taoist’s hand, placed the canon on the ground, and began to point things out.
"See this male dove, it’s a hidden taphor with a double aning, which actually alludes to Saint Li! The two ’Li’ characters signify double affirmation, representing greatness among greatness."
"The Emperor denotes a negation of the pseudo-Emperor Corpse of Primordial’s Human Emperor, an insignificant ant, not worth worrying about."
Utilizing the information checked through the Profound Identification Treasure Mirror, Zhang Ze, starting with this character for stand, began expounding to Wooden Fish Taoist about the tale of Saint Mother Guli descending from Prisoner Mountain, traversing the Primordial, bestowing blessings upon the mortals, and recruiting followers to serve as dogs for the Great Mother Goddess.
