Time flowed by slowly.
The hot springs were, as expected, a scene of harmony, with nothing unusual occurring.
After all, Qin Yu was a man of impeccable reputation.
With the Grand Leader requiring a work report, he had to put in extra effort.
Yes, it was even overtime.
However, there was an unexpected interlude during the report.
Initially, the Grand Leader patiently listened to Qin Yu's presentation.
But later...
The dissatisfied Grand Leader began to pull Qin Yu, initiating the engagement.
It could only be said that Ei, true to her martial background, was full of offensive power.
Unlike the Great Sumeru's Queen, who fought with her mana.
Ei, with only her health bar, could match Qin Yu blow for blow.
...
The process is omitted.
Splash—
Qin Yu gently picked up the Grand Leader and left the hot springs.
At this moment, his whole body was flushed red, like a boiled crab.
It was clear how long it had lasted.
Referring to the hot spring soak.
"Yu, have you rested enough?"
Ei, with her arms around Qin Yu's neck, asked softly, her purple eyes blinking.
"Grand Leader, rest assured, I'm doing very well."
Qin Yu placed Ei on the large bed, indicating he was fine.
No matter how many times he was subjected to... cough, forget it.
Seeing a strange light flicker in the Grand Leader's purple eyes again, Qin Yu shook his head.
"Hmph, alright then."
Ei stretched out her fair arm, signaling Qin Yu to help her wipe down.
As a personal attendant, this was an essential duty.
"Grand Leader, please lie down first."
Qin Yu understood and took out a towel.
After all, no one could resist that alluring curve that was partially revealed.
...
After attentive service, they tidied everything up and changed their clothes.
Of course, those black knee-high socks were beyond saving.
They had accidentally gotten dirty during their previous spar.
"Let's go find sister."
Ei gently held Qin Yu's hand, returning to her majestic General persona.
"Okay."
Qin Yu blinked his eyes and smiled slightly.
They had deliberately muted the sound during their spar, so no one had heard anything.
No problem, absolutely no chance of getting caught.
Thus, hand in hand, they walked towards the distant, beautiful Sacred Sakura tree.
Qin Yu, however, had yet to realize the gravity of the situation.
...
Under the Sacred Sakura tree.
"Welcome back—"
The First Electro Archon, the Dendro Archon, and the Second Dendro Archon were gathered.
Cherry blossoms fell, creating a picturesque scene.
They waved to Qin Yu, like wives awaiting their husband's return, harmonious and loving.
Well, the white-haired loli was the daughter.
"You all...?"
Qin Yu looked at the smiling women with a chill down his spine.
How could this be...
The colleagues that Madam and Nahida were supposed to meet were actually Raiden Makoto.
Four Archons had gathered in the Plane of Euthymia simultaneously!
Qin Yu smelled the familiar scent of impending disaster again.
Danger!
"Everyone, it's been a long time."
Qin Yu maintained a sunny smile.
"Heh heh... are you feeling unwell, Qin Yu?"
Great Sumeru's Queen, holding her cheek with one hand, approached with elegant steps.
Her gaze was gentle, filled with the charm of a married woman.
"Mm... I'm quite well."
Qin Yu coughed lightly and looked at the Grand Leader beside him, who remained silent.
Ready to activate her shield at any moment.
"What are you doing here?"
The latter snorted and pulled Qin Yu's hand away from the Queen.
Ei, having just become a wife, was asserting her claim.
Even if she was the God of Wisdom, so what?
Whether it was in romance or combat experience...
Ei was confident that she held the leading position.
This cabbage she had nurtured had been "eaten" by someone else.
The cabbage, who had been "eaten" many times while caught in the middle: ...
"Alas."
Beside them, Raiden Makoto sighed softly, shaking her head.
Silly sister, she doesn't even know she's been "eaten."
"I'm here to check on the condition of the Sacred Sakura."
Great Sumeru's Queen said, gently taking Qin Yu's other hand.
Although she spoke of the Sacred Sakura,
Her gaze never left Qin Yu.
Between the Sacred Sakura and the cabbage nurtured by someone else, she chose the cabbage.
"Yu is my personal attendant, please be mindful."
The newly married Ei frowned.
"But Qin Yu also said he would always take care of our mother and daughter."
The Queen smiled.
The two married elder sisters, each holding Qin Yu, were in a tense standoff.
As the two women exchanged barbs and competed,
"Everyone, let's be harmonious."
Qin Yu, helpless, circulated his divine power, resisting their advances.
Do they dare to "fight for landlord" with such little skill?
Just then.
"The Sacred Sakura is in good condition, you may leave."
Raiden Makoto approached Ei, stating her position.
The First Electro Archon joined the Archon battlefield.
Ei had been foolish before, and it didn't matter.
But with her good sister here this time, she would never let Yu be "eaten" again!
"Eh... is that so?"
Great Sumeru's Queen smiled slightly, looking at Qin Yu, who was sandwiched between the three women and unable to move.
With two Electro Archons present, it was indeed tricky.
But as the God of Wisdom, she quickly came up with an idea.
The atmosphere grew increasingly tense.
Qin Yu: ...
He glanced at Nahida and nodded secretly.
It's decided, you're up, little angel peace-token!
"Mom, Sister Baal, Sister Baal Zeb..."
The white-haired loli understood and immediately hugged Qin Yu's leg, looking innocent.
Her large, blinking eyes shone as if they could melt everyone.
Qin Yu felt himself melting.
Nahida, you're too adorable—
"..."
With the little angel present, the tense atmosphere eased slightly.
After all, the white-haired loli was a neutral party, very safe.
The Raiden sisters' brows relaxed, and their vigilance lowered.
Great Sumeru's Queen's lips curved upward, contemplating something unknown.
"Alright, it's rare for everyone to gather like this."
Qin Yu seized the opportunity to take each of the women's hands.
Can't back down!
"Qin Yu is right, we still have many things to do."
The Queen smiled and took a step back.
"..."
Raiden Makoto's delicate brows furrowed as she sensed a different aura.
Something was not right.
"Mm."
The majestic Grand Leader nodded and looked at Qin Yu.
"Then I'll leave for a while."
Qin Yu understood that Archons also had private matters to discuss.
"Be good, play with Qin Yu for a while."
Great Sumeru's Queen gently stroked Nahida's head.
"Nahida, let's go for a stroll."
Qin Yu also smiled.
What wicked thoughts could a white-haired loli have?
"Okay, Mom, my sun."
Nahida obediently nodded and cuddled with Qin Yu in front of the other women.
Pure and harmless.
"..."
Ei nodded slightly, not thinking much of it.
After all, the white-haired loli was a neutral party, and everyone could relax.
"Alright, go play now."
Great Sumeru's Queen's lips curved into a joyful arc.
Ei did not know that.
Mother and daughter were of one mind.
This meant...
When Nahida interacted with Qin Yu, all her perceptions would be transmitted to her.
This was the God of Wisdom's secret way of "eating."
"..."
Nahida blinked her innocent large eyes.
Wisdom was the enemy of the God of Wisdom.
Mom worked so hard, maintaining the connection all the time, it surely wouldn't do.
Later, she would voluntarily sever the connection.
As a little angel, Mom's little padded jacket...
Nahida decided to spend time with the sun alone.
This, too, was the God of Wisdom's secret way of "eating."
