The Duel Between Two Suns: Book 7 of Starchild Escapes Arranged Marriage

by Fat Bread

  Essentially, gods and witches were not equal at all. Apart from the few legend ranked witches, gods wouldn't take a glance at any other witches.

  Chapter 517: A Date with the God (1)

  "Why don't you go on a date?" White Lotus made an unusual proposal to Golden Sun Crow with a bright smile on her face.

  "What?!" Red Lotus looked at her sister in astonishment, as if she had never known her sister, White Lotus before.

  How can it be possible that my sister is so alive?!

  As the witch who could master the Great Circulation, White Lotus didn't really believe in any gods, why was she suddenly so enthusiastic about the golden-red bird?

  "Mei, let's go out on a date together."

  "It's rare to date with a god. It would be an event that could be recorded in the history of the White Lotus Sword Domain!" White Lotus squinted at Yun Xi, who was as bewildered as Red Lotus.

  Yun Xi tried to blink his eyes, suggesting that he had no experience in doing such things.

  White Lotus smiled and nodded, indicating that she knew it.

  However, it had been decided!

  "Oh, oh, I'll try this date! It must be interesting!" Golden Sun Crow who waved her wings and was very satisfied with White Lotus's proposal.

  What? What should I do now?

  Going on a date with a god... Yun Xi had never heard of such a thing! He watched White Lotus' fingertips draw a mysterious rune in the air, and then Golden Sun Crow's body transformed into a human.

  Transforming the incarnation of gods into human shape was also one of the unique secret skills the witches had. No matter how special the gods were, if they agreed to a contract with the witch, they could temporarily stay in the human world for a day.

  Because Golden Sun Crow was essentially still an unborn fantastic creature, her human form was a young girl about 7 or 8 years old, whose height wasn't taller than Yun Xi's waist.

  Even so, her appearance had proved that she had great potential to be a beauty in the future.

  This could be confirmed by the eyes of the people who passed by them on the street.

  She wore golden red clothes that was gorgeous, had a beautiful oval face, tall nose, small red cherry lips, and bright eyes as if there were flames burning in her pupils.

  Rings wrapped with golden wires drooped on both sides of her cheek, raising her beautiful eyebrows, she looked very proud.

  On her back, a pair of small golden wings stretched out with jeweled decorations on them, which were actually the blessings and protection the West Queen cast for her daughter.

  At this moment, the human-shaped Golden Sun Crow was holding Yun Xi's hand, strolling around on the streets.

  White Lotus and Red Lotus cast a special magic of witches on themselves, making their bodies become invisible in ordinary people's eyes.

  In the eyes of the people on the street, they could only see Yun Xi and a little girl holding each other's hand, strolling on the street.

  Looking down on the Golden Crow Princess, Yun Xi could clearly see her moving, slender neck. His face blushed and he quickly turned away.

  Undoubtedly, when the little Golden Crow Princess grew up, she would surely become an absolute beauty, but now she was still too young.

  To be honest, Yun Xi even felt a little guilty when he remembered that he just asked for a priceless SN-Drive from this little girl.

  He felt as if he just deceived an ignorant child and robbed her of her treasure.

  Is that really good? Yun Xi? Aren't you a gentleman? Yun Xi questioned himself in his heart.

  How would a gentleman deceive a young girl?

  "My SN-Drive... Is the furnace easy to use?" After touching Yun Xi's hand for a while, Golden Crow Princess suddenly asked.

  "That is, of course... it's very useful..." Taking out the furnace, Yun Xi skillfully lit the fire and toasted a piece of bread on the furnace. After a while, the bread emitted a pleasant smell.

  As he expected, the bread toasted on the furnace (sealed SN-Drive) would naturally contain the taste of the sun.

  Well, probably there wouldn't be any bread oven in the world better than this one. Of course, he would also use it to forge his first god weapon in the future. Long live the furnace!

  "Gu..." Looking at Yun Xi eating the toasted bread, Golden Crow Princess couldn't help but swallow.

  It looks delicious.

  What's that soft, fragrant, golden food?

  Why isn't the information about this food in my inherited memory?

  "Do you want to eat some?" Yun Xi tore off a piece of bread and handed it over to her. Probably in the endless god's domain, only he would use an SN-Drive to toast bread.

  "Yes!" Golden Crow Princess smiled and grabbed the piece of bread from Yun Xi's hand. She bit it in a very rude way.

  WOW! It's delicious. It's delicious! It wasn’t only because of the power of the sun inside it, but also because it was the first time she ate food in her life.

  The bread itself was a piece of high quality, hero ranked bread, after being toasted on the furnace, even Yun Xi himself was surprised and satisfied with its taste.

  Unfortunately, Hua Huo wasn't here. I really want to share this bread with her.

  Yun Xi couldn't help but miss his childhood sweetheart.

  "Is it really so delicious? Can you give me a piece of bread too??" Looking at their pleased expression, White Lotus also felt curious and wanted to taste it.

  "Well, it's just a loaf of bread, how delicious can it be?" Red Lotus disdained.

  "All right." Yun Xi tore off a piece of bread. He hesitated for a moment, then divided it into two pieces and handed them to White Lotus and Red Lotus respectively.

  The simple action let White Lotus' eyes suddenly become gentle.

  My prince, you do understand.

  That's right.

  Only in this way, is the correct answer.

  "Well, bread is bread, I don't believe that it can contain other tastes." Red Lotus bit this piece of bread viciously as if she was biting a person.

  Incredibly, the taste on the tip of her tongue was a taste she had never tasted in her life.

  Yun Xi was actually the only hero ranked Baker in the entire White Lotus Sword Domain, therefore, what Red Lotus tasted was the best bread in the entire White Lotus Sword Domain.

  Moreover, this piece of bread was toasted on the furnace, it had naturally contained a trace of the power of the sun.

  Even though it was just a tiny bit of the power of the sun, it had made the hero ranked bread become more delicious. So much so, that it was even beyond Yun Xi's imagination.

  "Ah-hoo!" Red Lotus gorged, almost biting her tongue.

  Why, why is this bread so delicious?

  Is it really bread?

  None of the bread she had ever tasted was as delicious as this piece of bread.

  No, none of the foods she had ever tasted was as delicious as this piece of bread!

  Red Lotus didn't like this maid, however, she couldn't deny that Mei's bread was so delicious that she wanted to cry.

  She couldn't outrage her conscience and say that it wasn't delicious!

  "Delicious..." Red Lotus finally had to make her own comment honestly.

  "It's delicious! It's delicious!" Compared with Red Lotus, Golden Crow Princess's response was the most straightforward.

  In contrast to her sister, White Lotus nibbled the piece of bread bit by bit, letting the sweet and delicious taste spread out in her mouth, and then slowly entered her throat.

  Ah, it's great to find another advantage my prince has!

  My prince's handmade bread is really wonderful!

  "Don't worry, there's still a lot of bread." Looking at White Lotus, Red Lotus, and Golden Crow Princess, Yun Xi was a little embarrassed.

  He really didn't put anything strange in his bread. Why did all three of them look at him with such desire in their eyes, as if they were puppies waiting to be fed?

  Taking out a loaf of bread again, Yun Xi skillfu
lly toasted the bread on the furnace.

  Just now, it was only his first time using the furnace. His control of the furnace was more or less immature and the temperature wasn't the best.

  This time, he had become more skilled in the use of the furnace.

  As a result, the smell of the toasted bread spilled out this time. Not only White Lotus, Red Lotus and the Golden Crow Princess smelt it, but also the people on the street smelt it.

  "What is the sweet smell?" A businessman sniffed.

  His name was Li Yun, and he swore that although he had traveled around the entire Sky Sword God's Domain, and as a big businessman, he was even qualified to enjoy the royal banquet in the Great Xia Sword Domain, this was still the first time he smelt such an unusual aroma.

  Taking a gentle breath, his body could clearly feel the incredible warmth contained in the smell.

  Not only Li Yun, but also all the people on the street and in the stores smelt this irresistible fragrance.

  Without exception, everyone was captivated by the smell and could not help drooling.

  "This... What's the scent? Are there any food stores selling this kind of delicacy?"

  "No, absolutely not. If there was such a food store, it would have been famous a long time ago!"

  "Is it a new food store which opened today? Is it advertising?"

  "No, I guess it's a chef who is publicizing his latest works."

  Soon, someone discovered the source of the aroma.

  It wasn't a new food store, nor a chef who temporarily set up a stall on the street.

  "Ah, over there!"

  "It's from that maid... the thing in her hands..."

  "Wait, bread?"

  "Uh..." Yun Xi looked at the people flocking to him in embarrassment.

  Wait! What is this situation now?

  Chapter 518: A Date with the God (2)

  "Miss maid, can you sell the bread in your hand to me?" Li Yun was the first who rushed to Yun Xi, "Just tell me the price! Money is never a problem for me!"

  How long since the last time I’ve had this impulse? Just like that royal banquet in the Great Xia Sword Domain, when I first smelt the smell of barbecued male fiery dragon, the cells all over my body couldn't help cheering.

  This is it! It must be this! The best food in my dream, which is even more delicious than the meat of the male fiery dragon!

  As a famous gourmet and successful businessman in the Sky Sword God's Domain, his dream was to eat different kinds of delicacies every day.

  Today, in front of him, there was an unknown delicacy that he had never tasted before. How can he let go of this opportunity?

  "Wait a minute. I'll buy it too, Miss maid, make an offer!"

  "Don't grab it. What bread is it, Miss maid? Do you have any more?"

  "Can you tell me who made it?"

  Within a moment, Yun Xi was surrounded by people who wanted to buy his bread, which made him feel both funny and annoyed.

  "Er... This bread is not for sale." As a former bread store owner, Yun Xi never thought that his bread would have such a hot day.

  Unfortunately, this bread is really not for sale.

  Because the bread was made of his hero ranked Baker ability, and it was toasted by the furnace, in fact, it was already a priceless treasure.

  Moreover, he could only store up a hundred loaves of bread using his hero ranked ability, all of them were his strategic stockpiles.

  At any rate, Yun Xi wouldn't sell his valuable bread to ordinary people. He would only use them in the most important moments.

  At this moment, he presented his most precious bread to Golden Sun Crow and the twin witches, it meant that he really regarded them as important.

  Even his childhood sweetheart, Hua Huo hadn't enjoyed this treatment, of course, the main reason was that he just obtained the furnace (SN-Drive) from Golden Crow Princess and just began to learn to use it to toast bread.

  "Not for sale?" Li Yun looked depressed.

  After hearing his words, most people around Yun Xi sighed, and some of them began to inquire about the origin of the bread.

  "Miss maid, can you tell me who made the bread?"

  "Was this bread made by Miss maid herself?"

  "No way. How old is she? I'm sure it's definitely a masterpiece from a real, respectable old master of bread."

  "Sorry, I can't tell you." Yun Xi shook his head. After all, he couldn't expose his identity.

  "Hum, don't pretend! I tell you, you must sell it today!" Finally, someone angrily rebuked.

  It was a young man dressed in the clothes of the servant of the White Lotus Sword Palace. Anyone could see his arrogance from his attitude.

  "Go away, go away! I'm serving for the White Lotus Sword Palace. Mind your business!"

  Being shouted at by the young people, almost all the people around him showed sympathy for Yun Xi and quickly walked away.

  For most people living in the sword tip area, the White Lotus Sword Palace was the master of their entire world. Even if it was only a servant from the sword palace, they didn't dare to offend him.

  Only several people from other sword domains still looked at them with curiosity.

  "White Lotus Sword Palace..." Yun Xi didn't understand why the young servant looked so proud after saying it. The servant walked to him with a haughty expression and then looked at him, stretching out his hand.

  "This bread is good. I'm sure the witches of the sword palace will like it. Give me it."

  Hearing this, people around them couldn't help but worry more.

  In the White Lotus Sword Palace, the witches of the Witch Palace were the most prestigious people, because of this, their servants also thought that they were superior to others outside the sword palace.

  His tone when saying "give me it" was so skillful, perhaps he had been used to being rapacious to other people.

  "The witches of the sword palace..." Yun Xi subconsciously looked at the twin witches with astonishment.

  What was this? Their servant was going to grab the witches and their god's bread?

  "Let go of me! I'll reveal my true identity and tear this bastard to pieces!" Realizing what a shameful thing she just witnessed, Red Lotus roared with anger.

  The person who dares to rob my... the god's bread must be punished by heaven!

  From now on, the Witch Palace wouldn't recruit any new male servants!

  "Don't worry. You won't give away it for nothing. Generally, a loaf of bread costs only several copper coins. This bread smells really good, how about I pay ten times the price higher than common bread?" The young servant still didn't know that his superior, Red Lotus was angrily staring at him. He looked at Yun Xi with a smirking smile and rubbed his fingers in front of Yun Xi.

  Li Yun stared at the servant in astonishment.

  The smell of the bread is even better than the smell of the barbecued male fiery dragon's meat, can it be bought by ten times the price of common bread?

  You're not buying but robbing!

  "Sorry, I won't sell this bread. You'd better leave now." Looking at Red Lotus' grumpy face, Yun Xi still wanted to save this young man.

  "Everything has a price. If ten times is not enough, how about twenty times the price of common bread? I always think that people should be more sensible in their lives." The young servant shook his finger in the air with a look of discontent.

  "My name is Qi Hui. I'm the servant of the Witch Palace. If you give me the bread and let me present it to the twin witches, it would be a great honor for you."

  "Oh... Is this the so-called 'robbery'?" Golden Crow Princess opened her eyes wide looking at Qi Hui's confident face.

  "No, it's called 'buy by force'... princess, don't look at this..." Yun Xi felt that it wasn't good for a child to see this scene, even though she was actually a god.

  "This bastard, shame on him!" Red Lotus finally couldn't help it and drew out her Red Lotus Holy Sword. Countless sparks spread from the sword and made the temperature of the whole street ri
se.

  "Why, why do I feel hot?"

  Qi Hui raised his head and looked at the sky in confusion.

  "Let me make it clear. Master Red Lotus and White Lotus want your bread, you have to sell it if you still want to live in the White Lotus Sword Domain!" Finding that today's weather was somewhat unusual, Qi Hui was somewhat anxious and couldn't wait to grab Yun Xi's bread.

  "Red Lotus and White Lotus want the bread..." Yun Xi looked at Qi Hui with a strange look.

  Well, what he said was indeed correct.

  "Yes, I like this bread very much." Suddenly, White Lotus’ voice appeared behind Qi Hui.

  "Yes, this bread is delicious, but I don't need you to buy it." Red Lotus gritted her teeth. Since White Lotus had appeared, she didn't need to hide anymore and naturally appeared beside White Lotus.

  "Ha... Ha..." Qi Hui was appalled. His mouth opened and closed like a salted fish stranded on the beach. Big drops of sweat kept streaming down from his forehead.

  "I must be too tired... Yes, it's just a delusion..."

  "No, it's true. Don't delude yourself..." Yun Xi looked at Qi Hui with sympathy. He had tried to save Qin Hui, but he didn't realize it and catch the opportunity.

  "Wait! I have something to say! I've done my best for the Witch Palace. I just want to buy the bread, and I'm going to pay for it!"

  "Shame on you! Is this how you do your best for the Witch Palace?" Red Lotus cocked her eyebrows. She usually didn't take care of the daily affairs of the Witch Palace, but now, it seemed that this was a big mistake.

  Sure enough, none of the men in the world are good!

  "You're fired, now, right away!"

  "Get out of the sword tip area and you are never allowed to enter this area again!"

  Red Lotus brandished her sword, and Qi Hui was instantly blown off to the sky.

  Of course, he wouldn't die, but after falling down to the ground, he had to stay in bed for more than ten days, and the fact that he was punished by the twin witches personally, was really a big blow to his life. Since this was no accident, there was no room for him in the White Lotus Sword Domain anymore.

  "Well, I told you to leave." Yun Xi sighed and shook his head.
