BXBX NOVEL Chapter 603 - Work And Rest Balance
But right at this moment, a severe headache came over, causing her to moan in pain and sway.
“My Lord, are you alright?” The Demon Queen quickly asked.
Nana waved her hand. “Don’t call me Lord, I’m no longer your Lord. As soon as I try to recall, my head will hurt. I’m not a soul beast, I just want to be an ordinary person. I just want to be with these children. Since you guys have already become their Spirit Souls, you should just act as their Spirit Souls.”
“Yes, My Lord.” The Demon Queen glanced in Lan Xuanyu’s direction with a questioning look in her eyes.
Di Tian then said, “My Lord, we will obey your will. I am in a very weak state and might not be able to wake up to communicate with you as I wish to. Please take care.”
As he spoke, the dark gold color on Lan Xuanyu’s forehead disappeared without a sound.
And in that short moment, Di Tian’s Spiritual Sense appeared in the Demon Queen’s mind.
“My Lord has lost her memories, and the pain that came along. That person is probably no longer around. Recalling everything will make her feel pain, so it’s better to hide it from her. What I find strange is the relationship between My Lord and Lan Xuanyu. Logically speaking, they should be related by blood! But why is she only Lan Xuanyu’s teacher? I’m going to continue sleeping. You should pay more attention to this. I thought that Lan Xuanyu was My Lord and that person’s child, and I was worried that they would be unhappy if they knew that I had attached myself to Lan Xuanyu. After all, I was borrowing the power of his Dragon God bloodline. I didn’t expect it to be like this. But My Lord’s memory loss might not be a bad thing, at least it won’t be painful for her.”
The Demon Queen said with a bitter smile, “Actually, we are already coexisting peacefully with humans. The fundamental conflict between our Lord and that person no longer exists.”
Di Tian sighed. “Life is hard to predict. Since the heavens have chosen to make My Lord lose her memories, perhaps this is the will of the heavens. It’s not something we can control. Forcefully awakening this time was a huge burden on me. Unless Lan Xuanyu is in a life-threatening situation, I might not be able to awaken for three years. You just have to merge well with Bai Xiuxiu. Only by borrowing their strength will we have a chance of truly stepping into godhood.”
After saying that, Di Tian’s consciousness gradually fell into a deep sleep. After the Demon Queen bowed to Nana once again, she transformed into a purple light and disappeared into Bai Xiuxiu’s body.
Nana stood there for a long time before her headache gradually eased.
Looking at the sleeping Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu, she was still in a daze. “I’m actually the Lord of soul beasts ? So I’m not a human.”
She raised her hands and looked at her palms. Silver scales appeared silently and covered every corner of her hands with a soft rainbow halo.
Nana muttered to herself, “Silver Dragon King, so I am the Silver Dragon King.”
She shook her head gently. “I don’t have any hatred or memories. I’m just Nana, what does the Silver Dragon King have to do with me?”
She laughed at herself and at this moment, her heart gradually calmed down. After all, she was already used to this calmness. She slowly walked over to Lan Xuanyu and carried him to the bed in the guest room before carrying Bai Xiuxiu into another guest room.
She was truly happy only when she was with these children.
Lan Xuanyu slept very soundly. He didn’t know how long had passed before he woke up from his sleep. When he realized that he was in an unfamiliar place, he fell into a daze for a moment before he gradually recovered his memories.
“Oh, we’re at Teacher Nana’s house.” He sat up, his head still a little dizzy but his entire body felt extremely relaxed.
“Come out and eat something if you’re awake,” Nana said gently.
Lan Xuanyu sniffed and immediately smelled the fragrance of food. He quickly stood up and ran outside.
Once outside, he realized that the table in the living room was already filled with food. Bai Xiuxiu was placing a plate of food on the table.
‘I’m so hungry!’ Lan Xuanyu pounced forward without hesitation and started eating.
The stewed meat was soft and mushy. There wasn’t much seasoning, but the fragrance of the meat was perfectly brought out.
The green vegetables were tender and refreshing, and there was a lingering fragrance in his mouth.
Nana sat by the table and ate slowly as well. Seeing Lan Xuanyu’s huge appetite, she couldn’t help but laugh. “You’re really starving! Eat slowly and leave some for Xiuxiu. She woke up more than an hour earlier than you. She began to cook right after waking up. I don’t know how to cook. I can only find some decent ingredients.”
Bai Xiuxiu actually didn’t know many dishes. There were only two types: stewed meat and stir-fried vegetables. Of course, there was also BBQ. The taste wasn’t any better than those restaurants’ delicacies, but Lan Xuanyu ate very happily and contentedly.
Lan Xuanyu was only able to speak when he was 80% full. “Xiuxiu, when did you learn how to cook? You’re not even 14 yet, right? You can actually cook so well.”
Bai Xiuxiu said, “The children of the poor tend to take charge early. I grew up in an orphanage and later entered the academy to stay in the dorms. As we didn’t have the money to pay for our school fees, we were considered working students. Although we had seniors to take care of us, we still had to do something within our capabilities. We learned how to cook porridge when we were eight, and when we were ten, we knew how to do simple things.”
Lan Xuanyu blinked. “It wasn’t easy for you. When I grow up, I’ll cook for you.”
Bai Xiuxiu pursed her lips. “You? I’ll starve to death if I count on you.”
Nana only looked at the two of them with a smile and didn’t say a word. The reason why she took a fancy to Bai Xiuxiu back then wasn’t just because of her cultivation talent. She was truly a hardworking little girl. Although her background was different from others, she wasn’t too different from ordinary humans when she was young. And at that time, she had also lost many of her memories. After that, Nana gradually found out that she had traumatic amnesia and her own amnesia might be the same.
After knowing that she was the Silver Dragon King, Nana felt that she didn’t want to know about these things, and knowing about them only made her more troubled. She thought about many things more than usual today, which made her feel slightly frustrated. She felt that there were many things that she didn’t know. Just like the Sea God Pavilion Master of Shrek Academy, she seemed to know about her, but she didn’t say anything. Maybe she or her ancestors were her enemies.
It was rare for her to be muddled, and there was nothing bad about losing her memory. Watching these two children grow up was the happiest thing for her.
After eating and drinking to his heart’s content, Lan Xuanyu felt that his fatigue had mostly disappeared. He immediately looked at Nana eagerly and said, “Teacher Nana, what are we doing today? Do you want to teach me another move or two?” He was already used to Shrek Academy’s fast pace and had to make sure that every minute in the academy was properly arranged and not wasted.
Nana smiled and said, “Both of you should take it slow today. Other than meditating at night, you don’t have to do anything else. I’ll bring all of you out for a walk later.”
“Go out for a walk?” Lan Xuanyu was stunned.
Nana nodded and smiled. “How about shopping? We met at the mall.”
Lan Xuanyu was in a daze. “We’re really not cultivating anymore?”
Nana said, “You have to strike a balance between work and rest. Relax when it’s time to relax. You have to give your body time to settle down. If your nerves are strung too tightly, they will break. All of you need to relax.”
Bai Xiuxiu jumped up excitedly. “Then let’s go to the mall. I want to buy pretty clothes, and delicious food. Lan Xuanyu will pay, he has money.”
The words ‘shopping mall‘ had already become foreign to Lan Xuanyu, but for some reason, after hearing Bai Xiuxiu’s cheers, he became inexplicably excited.
“Alright, let’s go shopping.”
