Chapter 78

【I never expected to run into you here—oh my, I'm so lucky!】

Originally, Liuying thought a fierce battle was coming next.

Who would have thought, after that person walked over,

He greeted Xing with surprising warmth.

【Am I dreaming?!】

After seeing the person, Xing was stunned.

【You're joking, buddy—this is Penacony—you're dreaming!】

【Surprised to see me? It's all thanks to you—Yanli-VI is wide open now!】

The man saw Xing's shock,

And immediately laughed to explain.

【Uh... who is this?】

Liuying watched this scene, confused.

【Hey now, Miss March, you don't remember me? I helped you so much in Luoboge...】

Sangbo turned to Liuying and spoke in a deeply wounded tone.

【What kind of look is that? Is March 7th supposed to look like this??】

After hearing Sangbo's words, Xing frowned and asked back strangely.

【My name is Liuying, an artist of the Iris lineage.】 Liuying introduced herself.

【Oh! So that's it—I thought so—haven't been long since we last met, but Miss March, your changes are too drastic!】

【Pleasure to meet you, pleasure to meet you! I'm Sangbo, an old friend of Xing's—please take care!】

Sangbo looked as if he'd just understood.

【Who's your friend... you're shameless.】

Xing was speechless.

【Hey hey, don't be so distant!】

Seeing Xing wasn't playing along,

Sangbo immediately chuckled awkwardly.

【Mr. Sangbo... what are you doing in Penacony?】

Liuying asked at this moment.

【What am I doing? Haha, Miss, that's a funny question—what else is there to do in Penacony? Just wander around, daydream... vacation, basically.】

【Hey, speaking of which—buddy, we rarely meet in Penacony, so let me show you around this area properly.】

【I've been watching you for a while—Miss Liuying may know Penacony well, but when it comes to 'my lord's entertainment'... I, Sangbo, still know better.】

Sangbo explained a few things to Liuying.

Then he smiled with a hint of mystery.

That smile gave off a... unseemly vibe.

【... My lord's entertainment?】

Liuying was puzzled.

【Looks like I hit the mark? Come on, both of you—let old Sangbo show you the real adult world!】

Xing: "Sangbo, you're here in Penacony too?"

Xing: "And you're going to take us to the adult world?"

Xing: "Good, you've got good instincts. I like you."

Liuying: "Uh... is this adult world... so serious?"

Paimon: "Looking at Mr. Sangbo's expression... it doesn't seem so serious, does it?"

Xier: "Pah, so shameless!"

Jiepade: "Mr. Sangbo, I never thought you'd embarrass yourself even in Penacony. Please don't claim to be from Luoboge ever again."

Jiepade: "Also, when you return to Luoboge, report yourself to the Silvermane Iron Guard—don't make me come after you myself."

Sangbo: "Officer Jiepade, is it really that serious?"

Sangbo: "Besides, I'm being framed!"

Sangbo: "According to the video's timestamp, I wasn't even in Penacony—how could I possibly appear before Miss Xing and Miss Liuying?"

Sangbo: "Also, if it really were me, I'd never mistake Miss March 7th!"

Sangbo: "I, Sangbo, travel the world relying on social grace—I'd never fail to recognize someone I've met before!"

March 7th: "That's true—given Sangbo's smooth-talking nature, he really shouldn't."

Xing: "Then who's impersonating him?"

Sangbo: "Just keep watching—it'll slip up soon!"

Liuying: "Chick... chicken feet?"

Sangbo: "Sorry, I misspoke—it's 'horse feet'!"
