#620 - The Golden Cicada still hasn't appeared
General Rolling Shutter retreated to the side, the crescent shovel in his hand disappearing into thin air once more, as he complained inwardly, "The Heavenly Emperor really has the leisure and interest to personally come down and kill Golden Cicada."
"Sigh~ If you're going to come down, you should at least say something in advance."
"If you had just said something, I wouldn't have been slacking off and only arriving now. My savings and possessions are all gone just like that~ So sad!"
"Also, if you've already decided to send your avatar to kill Golden Cicada, why did you still send me here!"
Just then, General Rolling Shutter saw Qin Buyi's smile that was not quite a smile.
He immediately shuddered all over. Qin Buyi's eyes seemed to be able to see into the deepest recesses of people's hearts...
General Rolling Shutter didn't dare to think any further, sitting cross-legged on the quicksand river, like a ten-thousand-year-old stone sculpture, unmoving.
If the semi-immortal old turtle that was scared away by Qin Buyi saw General Rolling Shutter's current appearance, it would definitely say: This is even more turtle-like than us turtles!
The little demons in the quicksand river watched the originally tense situation undergo such a big change.
They gossiped amongst themselves:
"What's going on? Didn't the newcomer immortal say he wanted to spar with our king! Why is he now like a cat seeing a mouse, not saying a word?"
"I don't know either, but it seems that the king must have taken out something that scared this immortal."
"Now that you mention it, I remember that when the king revealed his weapon, he said he was afraid of scaring this immortal to death. As a result, after taking out the weapon, it became like this!"
"Hehe~ The king's origins are so mysterious, but no matter how mysterious, he is still our good king!"
"It's good as long as they don't fight. Once they fight, this quicksand river can't withstand the tossing of two immortals!"
......
In the next eight days.
Qin Buyi thought that after General Rolling Shutter appeared, Golden Cicada would appear very soon.
Never would he have imagined...
The first day passed...
The second day passed...
The third day passed...
The fourth day passed...
Four days passed, and Golden Cicada's figure had not yet appeared.
If Qin Buyi hadn't been using his powerful divine sense day and night, he would have thought that Golden Cicada had already secretly crossed the quicksand river.
General Rolling Shutter sat on the quicksand river for these four days, without moving at all.
Mainly because he didn't dare to move. General Rolling Shutter now very much wanted to become an invisible person.
It would be best if Qin Buyi didn't pay attention to him, so as to avoid Qin Buyi finding something about him displeasing and stirring up more trouble.
Qin Buyi didn't have so many thoughts. After he took away all of General Rolling Shutter's possessions, he didn't pay so much attention to this General Rolling Shutter.
On the contrary, the big demons and little demons in the quicksand river came to greet Qin Buyi regularly every day.
Qin Buyi looked at this group of little demons and pointed at General Rolling Shutter, saying, "This will be your second king in the future."
After hearing Qin Buyi's words, the daily greetings became Great King and Second King.
Qin Buyi no longer rejected the title of Great King.
On the other hand, General Rolling Shutter had an unnatural expression. It wasn't that he was unwilling to be the Second King.
But with Qin Buyi here, waving the Killing Blade around all day long, how could he dare to agree to the titles of these little demons and big demons.
Once he agreed, wouldn't that mean that he, the Heavenly Court staff member in charge of rolling the curtains and security, was on par with the Heavenly Emperor in terms of status.
This kind of thing was extremely taboo. If a subject was on par with the ruler in a certain matter, it would be asking for trouble.
The Heavenly Emperor's avatar could be so polite to him, but if he didn't know what was good for him and just agreed, the consequences would definitely not be good.
But the Heavenly Emperor's avatar had already spoken, and if he didn't give a reaction, it would be like not giving the Heavenly Emperor face.
In a dilemma, General Rolling Shutter appeared extremely stiff and unnatural every time he faced the greetings of the big demons and little demons.
The most excruciating moment of every day was seeing that group of big demons and little demons.
The fifth day arrived. According to the daily routine, when a glimmer of dawn appeared in the eastern sky.
The big demons and little demons in the quicksand river came to greet the two kings on time every day.
General Rolling Shutter endured the time of greetings with great suffering.
He saw the demons disperse, leaving a big demon on the scene, carrying all kinds of river delicacies in his hand.
There were fresh river fish, river mussels, river shrimp, river crabs, and so on.
These fresh river delicacies were neatly placed in bamboo baskets woven by mortals.
"Great King, it's been several days since I saw you eat river delicacies. The little demon specially caught them for the Great King."
"Please accept them with a smile, Great King."
This big demon held up the bamboo basket in his hand like he was offering a treasure.
Qin Buyi glanced at these river delicacies and did not refuse.
Calculating the time, he could only stay here for a few more days before he would experience time reversal again and return to the myriad worlds.
Once he returned to the myriad worlds, he didn't know when he would be able to come back.
These delicious little river delicacies would naturally not be available to eat.
The key was that this was also the big demon's kindness. Qin Buyi took the bamboo basket and smiled, "Together."
The big demon who offered all kinds of river delicacies was the one from before.
Hearing Qin Buyi's words, the big demon looked incredulous, "Great King, did I hear wrong?"
"What did you say just now..."
Seeing the big demon's appearance, Qin Buyi had no choice but to say, "I said together."
After saying this, he saw General Rolling Shutter's eyes twitching beside him.
General Rolling Shutter's heart was filled with envy, jealousy, and some horror...
To be able to taste food with the Heavenly Emperor's avatar was a great honor!
Anyway, in the Heavenly Court, General Rolling Shutter had rarely seen the Heavenly Emperor eat with others in so many years.
One was that after cultivating to that level, the desire for food had become insignificant, and he ate very little.
The second was that those who were qualified to eat with Haotian were mostly top-level prehistoric figures such as the Three Pure Ones.
There were also times when the ministers gathered, and only then could Haotian be seen enjoying food with everyone.
"To be able to enjoy food with the Heavenly Emperor, what virtue and ability does this mere little demon who hasn't even reached the semi-immortal realm have!!!"
"Alas, as the General Rolling Shutter, I haven't had this opportunity for so many years, I'm really envious." General Rolling Shutter muttered to himself.
At this time, Qin Buyi looked at General Rolling Shutter and said, "Rolling Shutter, you come over and join us too."
General Rolling Shutter's shock upon hearing this was no less than that of the big demon.
His eyes widened, as big as copper bells...
After reacting, General Rolling Shutter immediately got up and came to Qin Buyi with a hop, his face smiling like a flower, "Yes!"
General Rolling Shutter thought to himself, "Hehe~ The Heavenly Emperor still cares for me!"
"To be able to enjoy food with the Heavenly Emperor's avatar is worth the trip! When I go back, I must show off to that Marshal Tianpeng."
"Although his cultivation, combat power, and status are all higher than mine, so what!"
"At least he has never eaten with the Heavenly Emperor!"
What General Rolling Shutter didn't know was that Marshal Tianpeng, whom he was talking about, was currently working hard in the Moon Palace, panting.
