Chapter 526: Invitation to Momang Palace
Afterwards, Liu Bai and Nashida said goodbye to Ruoli and the others and left the underground space where the Rock Dragon Palace was built.
At this point, Liyue's invitations have almost all been delivered. Although the other three-eyed and five-manifested immortals are known to them, just ask Zhongli to ask them whether they want to attend.
Then, Nashida took Liu Bai to Heyu Teahouse to find Yun Jin and give her the invitation.
Since Yun Jin had hardly met Nashida, and Nashida was now in the form of a young girl beside Liu Bai, Yun Jin was not very surprised at the news of their marriage and sent her blessings to them.
However, she is very busy with performances, and even though she has accepted the invitation, she may not have time to go to Xumi to attend.
At this point, the only person left who was relatively familiar was Xiangling, after all, they used to go to Wanmin Hall for dinner often.
So the two of them set out again to Chihuyan and came to the bustling Wanmin Hall.
"Eh! Is it Nashida? How come she's growing so fast? Even faster than rice crust!"
Xiangling recognized Nashida the first time she saw her beside Liu Bai, and immediately came forward in shock.
"Yes yes yes!"
Behind Xiangling, Guoba also came up curiously.
Since Liu Bai did not remove the "Heaven and Earth Beast" from Guoba, Guoba has remained in the form of a bear-eared girl for such a long time.
But as her strength recovered, she grew a lot taller in the past six months.
At the same time, she is still Xiangling’s good friend, or bestie.
"It's me, Xiangling."
Nashida nodded in response to Xiangling.
"That's amazing, did you eat some special food and suddenly grow taller?"
"No, by the way, Xiangling, this is for you."
Faced with Xiangling's curious questioning, Nashida could only smile and shake her head, then took out the red invitation and handed it to Xiangling and Guoba.
"Invitation...?"
"Liu Bai and Nashida...wedding...invite Xiangling to Xumi City..."
"Eh?! We-wedding? Aren't you brother and sister?!"
Xiangling took the invitation and read it carefully, but her eyes widened when she saw the last part.
Among the ordinary people who received the invitation, Xiangling was the only one who didn't know that Nashida was the Grass Goddess, but had seen Nashida's young form, so she couldn't help but exclaimed.
Although she had many opportunities to find out, she never paid attention.
"No, Xiangling, if you are free, you must come and participate. I will invite you to taste Xumi's delicacies and introduce you to Xumi's excellent chefs~"
As Nashida spoke, she took Liu Bai's arm and said something that might be of great interest to Xiangling.
"Okay, I understand. If the store is not busy, I will take a few days off and go over there."
"So I haven't been to Xumi to look for food. Will mushroom beasts taste as delicious as slimes... No, no, I'm drooling when I think about it!"
Xiangling agreed, and then she couldn't help drooling when she thought of Xumi's mushroom beast. She quickly raised her hand to wipe her mouth and then spoke.
"Mushrooms... Xiangling, I want to eat some too. Let's go catch mushroom monsters together!"
Guoba raised her index finger to her lips, and looking up at Xiangling with a greedy look in her eyes, she suggested this to him.
"Okay, then let's set off a few days earlier!"
After Xiangling and Guoba decided to go to Xumi to catch mushroom beasts to study their edible value, Liu Bai and Nashida also said goodbye to them.
"Xiaobai, these are for you."
After leaving Wanmin Hall and walking to the lotus pond near the Chihuyan teleportation anchor point, Nashida suddenly took out a stack of invitations and handed them to Liu Bai.
"Do I have a share too?"
"But there are so many copies... You don't want me to pay so much for the share?!"
Liu Bai hid his hands behind his back in fear.
"No, these invitations have the names of people you know written on them. You go and give them to them."
"I'll take care of the rest. We'll meet up in Xumi City after that."
Nashida pointed to the name of the person invited on the invitation and explained to Liu Bai.
Among the people Liu Bai knows, she basically knows which ones are familiar and worth inviting.
"Is that so?"
Liu Bai reached out and took the invitation, taking a look at the name on it.
The first one is Barbatos.
Although Nashida didn't like this guy who tricked Liu Bai into drinking, he seemed to have a good relationship with Liu Bai. After all, he was one of the Seven Gods and a god of the same generation as the Great Compassionate Tree King, so she still had to give him face.
"Who is Barbatos?"
Liu Bai scratched his head. Why didn’t he remember anyone with this name?
"Well... let's do this."
Nashida thought for a moment, raised her hand and wiped the pile of invitations, temporarily changing all the names to names Liu Bai knew, and even some text appeared to guide Liu Bai where to find the people.
And these prompts will disappear and return to their original state after Liu Bai hands over the invitation.
"Oh, now I understand. I'm going to deliver the invitations now, girl. Bye~"
Liu Bai nodded, said something to Nashida, and set off for Mondstadt.
After Liu Bai set off, Nashida also took action.
Her first stop was the Palace of Fontainebleau.
"...?"
"Wait, wait a minute, Buyer? Don't we have a bet? Why are you getting married?"
In the reception room of Momang Palace, Funina looked at the wedding invitation that Nashida stuffed into her hand, looked up at Nashida with a look of surprise and said to her.
"The bet doesn't say we can't get married."
Nashida replied with a smile.
In fact, the bet was completely unequal. Nashida could do anything, but Furninha could only wait for Nashida to fail and could not take the initiative to do anything.
"But……"
Furninda opened her mouth.
If we get married and have a child, it will be a complete bummer...
"Anyway, remember to come and participate. And these two copies, please help me deliver them to Fukaros and Navilette."
While Furninda was speechless, Nashida took out two more invitations and placed them on the table.
Afterwards, Nashida said goodbye to Furninna and left Momang Palace.
"..."
Funina stared blankly at the two names on the invitation in her hand, and crystal tears flowed down her cheeks unknowingly.
At this moment, a hand reached out from the side and wiped the tears from her face.
"Fukaros, are we...going to participate?"
Finina turned around and looked at Fukalos beside her and asked.
"Why should I go? It will only add to my sorrow."
Fukalos shook his head, picked up his invitation on the table and sat next to Furnina.
"We...we can go and get him back."
Furninna suggested after a moment's hesitation.
"It's better not to. There are many people who will be invited. This kind of thing can't be done."
As Fucaros spoke, he scratched off the golden words "Liu Bai" on the invitation and then threw the invitation back on the table.
"Well...but don't you like him too? Why are you acting so calm?"
Finina wiped the tears from her face and couldn't help asking Fucarlos.
"When a pure water elf falls in love with a human, she will love him deeply without hesitation. But since I left without saying goodbye and hid in the Cardinal of Oracle, I have decided to cut off all contact with him. After all, a dead lover will only leave people with pain."
"You are different from me. You were forced to make a choice by responsibility and the lives of your people, but I took the initiative to make a choice and chose the people of Fontaine."
"I feel sorry for him in this respect. I don't expect any chance of reconciliation anymore."
Fucaros put the golden "Liu Bai" he had shrugged off on the back of his hand, admiring it as if he were admiring a manicure, while explaining it to Funina.
It was because of what she thought in her heart that although she encouraged Funina to do it bravely, she never tried it herself.
"Is that so... But now it's time, if I don't work hard, I won't have another chance..."
Funina still didn't want to give up.
"I'm afraid it's not appropriate to try in that kind of situation. Besides, can't you see that the little life in her belly has already taken shape?"
"And you haven't even kissed me, even worse than me."
"So, give up..."
Fukalos had to persuade Funina.
If Funina had caused trouble on the wedding day, the consequences would have been completely different from before.
When the two gods of wisdom get angry, even the perfect dragon Navilette would tremble, not to mention that Apep is now firmly standing in the Sumi camp.
"..."
Finina was silent for a while, but finally couldn't help leaning on Fucaros, tears falling like a dam breaking.
Fukalos gently hugged Furninna and patted her back.
"Look at the water droplets outside the window."
"Every drop has reflected moonlight, but can never touch the real moon."
"Love is a hard bird to tame, begging is useless..."
