Chapter 708

"As long as you are happy, my lord. I have no objections to this Great Barrier of Gensokyo."

After Tianzhao Ming Jiegeng roughly looked at the design draft in her hand, she finally said this.

To be honest, this draft is truly complex. Miss Shenwu is at least a half-step Jin Xian and was once a carrier of the Heavenly Book, so she is naturally knowledgeable, but she still found it somewhat difficult to read.

This can only be said that people are ultimately different; the wisdom of a born Sage is indeed not something that mortals like them can imagine.

But it doesn't matter; anyway, the entire Eastern Island, including the three sisters, was born for the New Saint. The New Saint is the true master of the Eastern Island, and how the future of this territory develops is all up to her.

Even if the New Saint had a whim to blow up the island to watch fireworks, Tianzhao Ming Jiegeng would not have any objections; she would even volunteer to light the fire.

After all, she was born for the New Saint.

"Alright then, I will proceed according to this."

Looking at Miss Shenwu's appearance of "whatever you say is right," Dorothy was also a bit helpless.

Just as she thought before, she hopes that others follow her because she is truly awesome, not because of her status, but this Miss Shenwu clearly still cares too much about her status as a born Sage.

However, the Home Witch has no good solution for this. After all, although Miss Shenwu looks young, she is already an ancient existence who has lived for tens of thousands of years. You cannot expect the thoughts of such a living fossil to be changed at will; that is almost impossible.

Especially since waiting for her arrival was the meaning of Miss Shenwu's persistence over the past tens of thousands of years. If she insisted on denying her status, it would almost be denying the meaning of Miss Shenwu's past existence, which would be a bit too much.

Sigh, just like no matter how she resists Long Ma's succession requirements, she can never change the fact that she is Long Ma's daughter; she can no longer tear off this status label of a born Sage.

It is precisely because of these various helplessness that true freedom is so far out of reach.

In her previous life, she had heard many stories of rich second generations wanting to prove themselves; they wanted others to acknowledge them, rather than being treated as someone's son or daughter for their whole lives.

This is undoubtedly a form of affectation, but thinking about it carefully, this might indeed be one of the bigger troubles among the few that those young masters and ladies who lack nothing have.

Hmm, the troubles of the rich are so hard to understand.

Although now the affected person is actually myself.

When the Home Witch thought of this, her mood became complicated.

She seems to have become the character that she herself in her previous life would have denounced and scolded.

But forget it, my second brother is gone anyway, so what is the point of saying these things? If I'm being affected, so be it; as long as I'm happy.

One's position determines one's perspective; this is the truth. Before one sits in that position and experiences that feeling personally, no matter how much others say, it is hard to understand.

Hmm, just like parents urging marriage; parents find it hard to understand why their children are so resistant to blind dates and why they are so picky, while children find it hard to convince their parents to accept the fact that this era is already different from theirs. In the end, neither side can convince the other.

Perhaps, this is the generation gap.

"Oh, there is one more thing. I am actually here to say goodbye. Building this barrier is not difficult; it will be done in a few days. When it is built, I will leave. Miss Jiegeng, you will need to keep an eye on things on the island, especially after the Eastern Island opens later. There will definitely be a lot of trouble, and you will need to step in to maintain order when necessary."

The Home Witch stood up, preparing to take her leave.

Although this Eastern Island has become her territory, she, the lord, probably won't be coming back to manage it personally for a long time; after all, she is still a student and has to go back to school.

And after the Eastern Island opens later, there will definitely be many witches curious about Immortal culture coming to travel. Dorothy knows very well how lawless those outside witches are, and there will definitely be many disputes.

But as long as Miss Shenwu suppresses them, it won't be a big problem. After all, as long as she is on the island, Miss Shenwu has the strength of a Jin Xian (Sage) level.

To this, Tianzhao Ming Jiegeng had no objections.

"Hmm, this is my duty. Please rest assured, my lord. It is only a pity that this body cannot leave the Eastern Island and cannot serve by your side at all times."

Miss Shenwu first nodded, accepting the task, and then said with some disappointment.

For her, who has now switched to the path of the Earth Immortal, this Eastern Island is actually a cage.

However, she glanced at the disciple beside her; her regret can only be fulfilled by this disciple who acts as her other half.

And Tianzhao Ming Setsuna also understood her teacher's eye signal in a second. If it were in the past, if her teacher had sent her to be a servant for someone else, she would definitely have been angry and threatened to run away from home, but now...

"Teacher, don't worry, I will take good care of my lord for you. You don't need to worry."

The little shrine maiden said solemnly, her beautiful face wearing an expression that said, "I will take care of your wife and daughter."

Great, now I can finally follow Lord Clown in a legitimate way. This is great.

Tianzhao Ming Setsuna tried hard to control her expression, not letting herself laugh too loudly, and she was also considering whether to act reluctant to part with her teacher.

This made Tianzhao Ming Jiegeng almost unable to maintain her fairy aura; her fists were clenched.

This brat needs a beating every three days, or she'll tear down the roof; this is truly "filial" to the point of death.

But forget it, although she is a disciple, she is actually her other half; both are Tianzhao, one soul with two sides, so there is no need to distinguish between them.

"Lord Clown, please take care of me in the future."

Seeing that her teacher actually endured not beating her, Miss Ghost Mask stood up directly, gave a deep bow to her superior, and said happily.

"Alright."

To this, Dorothy did not refuse. After all, this had been discussed before, and she had already issued an employee card for the Witch's Home to the little shrine maiden; this is the only architectural designer in her club so far besides herself.

"Then, let me offer you this farewell dance of blessing, my lord."

Seeing that the New Saint agreed, besides the little shrine maiden being happy, Miss Shenwu was also very delighted. She stood up and went to the side, saying this.

The Kagura dance is a required course for Eastern shrine maidens because Tianzhao Omikami, as the main deity, loves singing and dancing. Miss Shenwu previously lacked spiritual power and dared not dance at will, but now that she has been "recharged," she has regained her former pleasure.

Although the complete Tianzhao Kagura dance is a technique of slaughter, it also has the effects of praying for blessings and dispelling misfortune that some deities have.

Of course, these small abilities are not of much use to a born Sage; Dorothy was purely watching a beauty dance.

How could that dance posture be described as anything other than graceful as a startled swan and elegant as a swimming dragon?

Thus, after drinking a few more cups of tea and enjoying the farewell blessing Kagura dance performed personally by Miss Shenwu, the Home Witch left contentedly with the little shrine maiden.

Hmm, these days of having nothing to do and enjoying dances at the shrine are really nice; Miss Shenwu's dance posture is truly smooth.

Anyway, this made Dorothy look forward to the upcoming trip to Venus City; the dance postures of the young ladies in that city of art must also be very beautiful.

When the two returned to the Yae mansion, Dorothy was pleasantly surprised to find that Auntie Yae and Spider-Sensei were actually at home, which immediately made her overjoyed.

"Auntie Yae, you have finally returned. I haven't seen you for many years; I missed you so much."

The Home Witch greeted them eagerly.

And to this, the two adult witches had complicated feelings; both of them were like middle-aged men being urged by their partners to pay their "public grain," trembling all over in fear.

Fortunately, what made Noerose feel secretly happy was that her good disciple didn't pester her this time, but set her sights on her good best friend.

However, although escaping a disaster is a good thing, this is my disciple, yet she directly ignored me, her teacher, and was so enthusiastic toward someone else...

Spider-Sensei felt complicated for a moment.

Hmm, it's like a useless person who can no longer satisfy their partner's needs watching their unsatisfied girlfriend throw herself into someone else's arms right in front of them.

Damn it, the victim is actually myself.

Ying ying ying, good sister Yae, you hold on for a while; my new teaching materials will be compiled in a few days.

Holding such complicated feelings, Spider-Sensei thought to herself.

Of course, Dorothy is definitely not the kind of fickle scum woman. After all, Spider-Sensei hasn't completely become "medicine dregs" yet; before that, she still respects her teacher very much.

The reason she mainly held onto Auntie Yae was purely because the teacher is at school, and she can learn from her anytime later, but after she leaves the Eastern Island, it won't be easy to find Auntie Zi again.

Although for a space-type witch, distance is not a problem, the problem is that space-type witches are really good at playing hide-and-seek. When a space-type witch wants to hide from you, it is truly hard to catch her.

Therefore, since it is rare to catch her, she cannot let her go; she must squeeze her hard first.

Thus...

"I can't take it anymore, my good niece, spare your aunt. Auntie is old and really can't take it; I can't handle you young people harming me like this."

After a round of fierce forced tutoring, the blonde witch, who had already taught even her "bottom-of-the-box" gaps, directly raised the white flag.

Really, regarding the knowledge of space magic, she has taught everything she can at this stage; the rest are things that can't be explained clearly in a short time, and she doesn't dare to teach randomly; she needs to organize and prepare lessons first to avoid misleading her students.

"Let Auntie rest for a while. After a while, when I am fully prepared, I guarantee to satisfy you, okay?"

Yae Zi covered her head, which was somewhat over-exhausted, and begged for mercy.

She, who has always liked being called "big sister" and doesn't allow others to call her old, has now voluntarily become an "aunt."

"Alright."

And Dorothy, who had learned to her heart's content and felt that her space-type magic experience points had greatly increased again, also nodded contentedly.

Only then did she bring up the serious business.

"Sister Zi, Teacher Rose, my design draft for the Great Barrier of Gensokyo is ready. Take a look and see if you are satisfied."

The Home Witch took out the Investiture of the Gods draft again and said this.

And the best-friend duo of snake and spider also took the drawing and glanced at it.

Yae Zi: "..."

Noerose: "..."

The best friends looked at each other, seeing shock and confusion in each other's eyes.

Yae Zi: "Rose, did you understand it?"

Noerose: "I understood a little; I understand that half of the architectural part. How about you?"

Yae Zi: "What a coincidence, I only understood a little too; I understand about a quarter of the Qimen Dunjia part."

Noerose: "Then what about the remaining quarter?"

Yae Zi: "This is your disciple; are you asking me?"

Noerose: "..."

The best friends fell silent directly.

This really can't be blamed on them; after all, there is a specialization in the arts. Both are just peak witches who have reached the pinnacle in their respective fields of expertise, not those near-omniscient Sages, and what this disciple handed in now is a "little Sage" answer sheet...

Damn, this really touched their knowledge blind spots.

"Cough, cough, that, Dorothy, actually the Great Barrier isn't very urgent. We haven't found the Dragon Vein yet, right?"

Spider-Sensei coughed twice, trying to stall for time.

This design drawing is indeed based on the Eastern Dragon Vein, but she and Yae Zi have been searching for the dragon's acupoints for many days and haven't found a single hair; it can only be said that this good best friend's Feng Shui secret arts are truly half-baked.

And on the side, Yae Zi's face was also slightly red, feeling a bit embarrassed.

But there is no way; this can't be blamed on her, okay? The ancestors were not up to the task and didn't leave a complete inheritance; she is also very helpless.

"Oh, oh, you are talking about this. Actually, I wanted to tell you long ago not to look anymore; I have already found them all, but who told you to keep hiding from me these days? I didn't have a chance to say it."

Dorothy scratched her head, took three small purple snakes out of her pocket, and said this.

These three are naturally the three contaminated Dragon Vein branches that were originally attached to Izanagi, Momiji, and Minamoto no Raiko. After killing the three of them, Dorothy caught these overflowing Dragon Veins.

She also used the Bodhisattva Heart to baptize these three contaminated Dragon Veins, turning the originally purple-black small snakes into beautiful pure purple ones.

Yae Zi and Noerose: "..."

The best friends were confused again. Spider-Sensei looked at her best friend beside her, signaling her to see if it was real.

And Yae Zi looked at them carefully and immediately confirmed that this was the pure power of the Dragon Vein.

"Ah, this, how did you find them?"

The two were very shocked. They had been climbing mountains and crossing ridges these days, turning over all the mountains on the island, and hadn't even found a dragon scale. Wasn't this child busy filming some magic movie? How did she find them?

And after the shock came shame. After all, the child did what the two of them couldn't do, and they had indeed been hiding from this child these days, which led to the current embarrassment.

"I just saw them, Sister Zi. Have you forgotten? My Qi-gazing technique was taught by you."

Dorothy blinked innocently.

Yae Zi: "..."

Damn, almost forgot that this little niece is the legendary born Sage.

"Then what about the remaining five?"

The blonde witch was silent for a moment and asked this; she still thought that the Yamata no Orochi must have eight branches.

"Actually, there are nine."

The Home Witch directly reached out, grabbed from the top of the aunt's head in front of her, and caught a lively purple snake.

Yae Zi: "..."

Ah, this, am I the blind one?

Auntie is silent...
