Ying was startled when she heard this, and then her expression became serious: "I understand, I will pay more attention in the future."
"Yeah."
Su Mo didn't care whether Ying fully understood what he said or not. As long as Ying listened to it, it was enough. She would understand more sooner or later.
After a pause, Su Mo arranged again: "I'll give you a task. Don't make it public for the time being. Continue to cooperate with Zhongli in acting and pretend that nothing happened."
"When the time is right, I will arrange someone to go to Zhongli to ask for an explanation."
Although he did want to make trouble for Zhongli about this matter, he didn't want to turn against Zhongli.
At the same time, he also needed to make Zhongli pay a painful enough price to have a deterrent effect.
If he went now, Zhongli would still have a way to quibble and excuse himself, turning the matter into a small matter.
This was not the result Su Mo wanted.
So, the timing of this attack was critical.
It must be when Zhongli is overwhelmed and has to give in to the pressure from the Dimension City.
And the big event that will happen in Liyue next is undoubtedly the best time.
Zhongli plans to fake his death during the Immortal Invitation Ceremony, and then arranges a series of tests to test whether the Seven Stars have the ability to protect Liyue.
At that time, Zhongli will secretly pay attention to the whole process to avoid accidents and be ready to rescue at any time.
This just gives Su Mo an opportunity.
But...
This old 547 fox can probably guess that I will cause trouble for him after learning about this, so he should be prepared...
Then, I will give you some extra code to see if you can handle it...
Su Mo thought secretly, preparing to give Zhongli a big one.
Let Ying continue to act, one is to cover up this surprise.
By the way, it is also to turn the tables and disgust Zhongli.
When the time comes, let Zhongli pay the price, and also make him fulfill the pie he drew to deceive Ying.
Anyway, as long as there is no excuse, whether Ying abides by the contract or not, Zhongli's words will not count, but he has the final say,
"Okay, I guarantee to complete the task."
Ying didn't know Su Mo's thoughts, but seeing that Su Mo had already taken out the name of the task, he accepted it without hesitation.
"Go, go back as soon as possible, don't let the other side find out the clues, I will contact you through the dimensional terminal if there are any arrangements for the follow-up."
"Yes."
Seeing this, Ying took Paimeng away.
After the two left, Su Mo turned around and went to the back garden of the city lord's mansion.
This place has always been very deserted before, and almost no one would come here. At most, Sakura and Illya would occasionally come here to play when they were resting.
But now it is very lively here.
In the pavilion in the garden, the Kanae sisters, Haruhime, Hestia, and a mature and beautiful woman with long brown hair and sea blue eyes were drinking tea and chatting.Next to the woman.
In the open area next to the pavilion, the Demon God Souji, Black Wumao, Draco, Nero, Huihui and others were watching the swordsmanship competition between Saeko Busujima and Souji Okita.
Since the family team came back, this place has become their gathering place.
Because they have nothing else to do in the Dimension City, and they can't cause trouble to others who have to work, so they all ran here.
"Su Mo, you are here, come and sit down."
Hestia was the first to notice Su Mo's arrival, and smiled and stood up and waved to him.
"Lord Lord!" XN
Once the others heard it, they also looked over, and seeing that it was really Su Mo, they stopped their actions and greeted Su Mo.
"Don't be so restrained, just be casual."
Su Mo smiled and waved his hand, and came to sit next to Hestia.
Seeing this, the others continued to go about their own business.
"Look~!"
Feeling the burning gaze of the woman opposite, Su Mo smiled and nodded:
"Nice to meet you, Goddess Astraea. I think you have heard of me, so I won't introduce myself. Welcome to the Dimension City."
Yes, the brown-haired woman who allowed Liu to accompany her was the chief god of the clan to which Liu originally belonged, Astraea. (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
Before, Liu agreed to come to the Dimension City to accompany Livilia. He wanted to meet Astraea in advance and deal with some things, so he went to the Sword City with the clan team.
As a result, this useless elf accidentally let it slip, and Astraea also knew the existence of the Dimension City, and then kept clamoring to come to the Dimension City.
Hestia was annoyed by her and agreed, but the condition was that she had to wait until the family team completed the mission.
Now that the family team has completed the exploration mission, Astraea finally got what she wanted today.
"I have heard of you for a long time, Lord Su Mo. I have been waiting for this day for a long time."
Asteria pretended to be resentful and said that those who didn't know would think that Su Mo had done something against the will of heaven and earth to her.
"..."
Su Mo couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. How could he respond to such a statement?
It was indeed his fault that Astraea had waited for so long.
The prerequisite given by Hestia was actually his own.
The main reason was that he was not familiar with Astraea and didn't know what she was like.
Although Hestia provided information as a reference, he did not agree to let her come over immediately, but chose to observe for a while first.
After all, Astraea corresponds to the Greek mythological Estrella, but in addition to justice, she also controls the stars, purity, and virginity.
Let’s not talk about the last one, it has nothing to do with Su Mo.
But the stars and purity made Su Mo have some unwarranted suspicion. []
Let’s not talk about the former. Since the birth of Cthulhu Mythos, the stars have had an indescribable meaning.
As for the latter, Su Mo does not think he is a pure person, and can even be said to be filthy.
And Astralia is most famous for justice.
Su Mo does not think he is a righteous person either. Since the establishment of the Dimension City, he has done some things that have nothing to do with justice for the sake of development.
So, Su Mo does not know if Astralia will explode on the spot if he lets her in.
So he observed Astralia for a while, and only approved her to come to the Dimension City after confirming that there was no problem.
Well.
Facts have proved that the above are purely his overthinking.
Astralia is not the kind of pedantic person, and will not point fingers at everything she sees.
At the same time, it has nothing to do with the Cthulhu forces. Her stars refer to the stars, not other messy things.
After all, if there is a relationship, the world of Dicuo will not tolerate her. She will not be on the side of justice, but should be on the side of the dark faction.
That is why Su Mo felt embarrassed. After all, his groundless suspicions were really wronged.
"Okay, Astraea, don't blame Su Mo anymore. He just did that out of caution."
Seeing Su Mo being humiliated, Hestia hurried out to save the situation.
"You really protect your husband, Hestia. You don't want friends now that you have a husband."
Asteria wiped away the tears that didn't exist at all with a wronged look on her face.
This exaggerated acting made everyone present twitch their mouths.
