Chapter 214 Searching, Searching, Searching for Fun
Thanks to Li Muyang's deliberate avoidance, the trip went very smoothly for the next few days.
There is no situation that one wants to avoid but cannot, and Li Muyang does not have any strange aura.
That is...
They barged into a locked-down school, reported it to the Metropolitan Police Department, slashed a monokuma inside, rescued a group of people, and eventually sent a few to a mental hospital.
In a remote small town, I encountered several mermaids and a young fisherman, and leisurely experienced the joy of sea fishing.
In another region, he casually killed another Kyubey, erasing it from its source, and then guided several magical girls to do what they were supposed to do.
Later, they encountered two "Hyperzedons," one black and one white, who wanted to kidnap Bai Yuxiu and Erii to become magical girls and evil executives.
Wind chimes? Uh... cough cough.
What a peaceful and uneventful day!
Although the two "Hyperridgets" had their own selfish motives, they weren't enough for Li Muyang to simply kill them off; expelling them would suffice.
The main point is that compared to the universally hated Cupid, these two are at least somewhat human-like.
It's definitely not because that black guy was still live-streaming!
Holy crap! How did you even manage to get 300,000 followers?! And the official channels haven't even banned your account yet!
Considering that these two still had some use to them, at least some emotional value, Li Muyang took pity on them and spared them.
They must have been created by some dimensional demon god, probably just having fun out of boredom. They have a rating system similar to performance evaluation. If Li Muyang really killed them, it would probably attract the attention of the dimensional demon god, which would be more troublesome than a monkey, but the harm caused wouldn't be too great, so Li Muyang couldn't be bothered with it.
There is also something behind Kyubey, but it's like a garbled code in the formation of the world. Li Muyang's purification is like fixing the bug code, which won't affect anything, and the god behind it won't care.
Such things broadened the horizons of Bai Yuxiu, Feng Ling'er, and Erii.
Wow, Japan has so many hidden forces!
They even met a purple-haired lady on the way, who invited them to her family's dinner party.
Li Muyang absolutely did not want to go!
"Does Mr. Li Muyang have a big problem with me? Why are you so resistant to attending a family banquet?" The purple-haired young lady, Saori Kido, covered her mouth and teased with a light laugh. Her seemingly sunny smile sent chills down Li Muyang's spine.
Damn! This guy is so cunning!
“My father, brothers, sisters, uncles, and aunts are all eager to meet you,” said Saori Kido meaningfully, leaning closer to Li Muyang. “Of course, if Mr. Li Muyang is afraid… he doesn’t have to come!”
Wow! Baby's goddess!
Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er had also noticed that Li Muyang was very wary of the beautiful girl in front of him. For some reason, even they could feel that the girl in front of them was stunningly beautiful!
The problem is that the group of people are standing on the street, but the passersby seem to be unable to see Saori Kido.
As for Erii... she knew Kido Saori before, but she didn't know anything special about Kido Saori. In the eyes of the Snake-Headed Eight Families, she was just a pretty young girl who inherited the family business at a young age.
After pondering for a long time, Li Muyang asked, "I have only one question. I wonder if the goddess can answer it for me?"
Saori Kido squinted and chuckled, "You're quite interesting, aren't you? I can't accept the title of 'goddess' right now. Please just call me Saori. As for any questions you may have, I'll do my best to answer them."
"Okay." Li Muyang asked succinctly, "You guys don't have any Saint Seiya games up your sleeve, do you?"
"Huh?" Saori Kido was taken aback, blinked, and then came to her senses, regaining her confident and sunny demeanor as she gently replied, "Of course not! We've only been awake for a little over ten years."
(So that's what he was worried about...) Saori Kido realized why Li Muyang was so wary of her, and she couldn't help but laugh and cry. Stereotypes are terrifying.
It's just that my father is very curious about Li Muyang.
Riding in the Kido family's private car, Li Muyang and his group arrived at the castle where Kido Saori was to hold her family banquet.
A castle-like building in the style of ancient Greece.
However, the twelve main gods that Li Muyang had imagined were not present, or rather, not all of them were there.
"...I'm so sorry to have invited you here so abruptly. If it has disrupted your travel plans, please forgive me." The handsome blond youth leading the group approached Li Muyang with a wine glass in hand, offering him a glass of juice. Hmm, it seemed he knew Li Muyang didn't drink alcohol, so he prepared a wine glass, but the juice inside was apple juice!
Li Muyang didn't stand on ceremony, politely accepted the apple juice, took a sip, and replied, "I'm flattered!"
(Holy crap! What kind of apple juice is this?) Li Muyang took a sip and was almost startled by the energy inside!
This is definitely not juice from ordinary apples!
"Haha! Mr. Li Muyang, there's no need to be so nervous. We don't mean anything by it; we just want to make a good connection with you." The blond youth invited Li Muyang and his group to stay at the hotel and introduced the other people to Li Muyang.
"I believe you have already guessed our identities. There's no need to elaborate on our real-world identities; let me directly introduce our true identities: I am Zeus..."
Yes, Poseidon, Hades, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Hephaestus, Hermes.
And also invited Saori Kido, who brought Li Muyang and her group here, and Athena.
Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er weren't quite sure how valuable this lineup was, but Erii was incredulous! Eight of the twelve Olympian gods had arrived?!
Yes, Hades, the god of the underworld, is not among the twelve Olympian gods, but he is definitely the strongest one besides Zeus!
Only Hera, Demeter, Aphrodite, and Hestia were missing.
Faced with such a lavish lineup, Li Muyang could only ask with a wry smile, "Everyone, I'm just a mere Nascent Soul cultivator, is it really necessary for you to make such a fuss?"
Hades, whose face appeared gloomy, also had a hint of a smile... but his smile only made him look more frightening: "Hehe, Your Excellency, there's no need to be nervous. We are merely reincarnated beings. This world is suppressed, preventing us from breaking through our cultivation levels. In principle, we are all mortals!"
(I already said it's just according to the rules!) Li Muyang thought to himself, speechless. Why does it feel like I've become a rare animal? Everyone's rushing to stare at me?
Zeus seemed to sense Li Muyang's thoughts and smiled, explaining, "Don't worry, Your Excellency. With that person stepping in, I can guarantee that no other colleague will bother you except for us."
"Well then, please speak frankly, everyone. I'm finding it difficult to calm down in front of you all right now," Li Muyang said, unable to bear the atmosphere any longer.
The gods exchanged glances, and Zeus spoke up: "The matter is actually very simple; we just want to see you!"
"It's over?!" Li Muyang was dumbfounded.
Just to see him? Why?
Zeus explained with a half-smile, "Otherwise what?"
Poseidon then spoke up, saying, "I'm just curious, what kind of being is this who has disrupted the normal functioning of the world!"
Hades stopped laughing; his normal, cold expression was more appealing than his smile: "That's all."
Zeus leaned back in his chair and explained with a chuckle, "They were all supposed to come, but unfortunately they didn't come down, so it was too late."
"Actually, another reason we're interested in you, Mr. Li Muyang, is because you accepted our gifts," Hades explained leisurely. "Because in the future, some confident guy foresaw that you would refuse the gifts the three of us offered you, but you accepted them. And you just happened to accept more than a few of our gifts!"
Poseidon chuckled and took over the conversation: "So, we made a bet on whether you knew about our existence!"
Zeus touched his nose. Yes, he was the confident guy, and also the unlucky one who bet that Li Muyang didn't recognize them.
Li Muyang (◎_◎；): ...So should I accept it or not!
The Olympian gods must have so much free time!
After several gods explained the situation, Li Muyang finally understood what was going on. He had aroused the curiosity of these gods because he had not followed the future that Zeus had foreseen. That was why they wanted to meet Li Muyang.
As for other reasons, there are none.
They didn't even know that Li Muyang came from another world; they just assumed he was a cultivator from some Eastern immortal, sect, or force.
They assumed Li Muyang was a junior member of an old friend's family, and since they were now reincarnated, they wanted to greet the junior member of their old friend.
Therefore, I'm still free!
Although the ancient Greek pantheon had many great wars, there was no Ragnarok-level catastrophe. Or rather, a certain god-king single-handedly postponed the Ragnarok indefinitely!
Therefore, these Olympian gods, having nothing better to do, sought all sorts of amusement. Each of them had several divine positions related to entertainment, which shows how idle they were.
Inviting Li Muyang to the banquet was merely a whim of a certain god-king, but Zeus never expected it to make Li Muyang so nervous.
There was nothing Li Muyang could do. He didn't want to be nervous, but he had been startled by the Lord of Mount Tai just a few days ago, and now the Olympian gods were looking for him. It was hard to guarantee that Li Muyang wouldn't start overthinking things!
Upon learning the reason, the gods were both amused and exasperated. After all, they were chief gods... although not all of them were chief gods, they at least held the title of chief gods and wouldn't be so petty as to bully their juniors!
Well, the main reason is that Li Muyang has connections!
The Time and Space Administration badge Li Muyang carries carries the aura of Fuxi's authentication! Who wouldn't give him some face? If you don't know him, fine, but if you pretend to be stupid if you do… believe me, Fuxi's avatar in this world could come and kill you!
