Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1436: Chapter 784: Qing Chen’s Show of Force

Countdown 168:00:00.

In the dense rainforest of Xiuzhu State.

Lian Xin was sitting by the bonfire thinking about something, and somehow, she could slowly see that silly face emerging from the flickering flames.

Lian Xin murmured, “Earth Element Awakener…”

The Lian People of Xiuzhu State reside in a secluded corner and haven’t seen many Awakeners, especially elemental ones, who are rare even across the Federation, so they have encountered even fewer.

She pondered a question, what if that fool is never affected by the Naked Heart Gu, what should she do then?

The lover of the clan leader’s A Zhu must accept the Naked Heart Gu, that’s a rule passed down since the time of the Lianyi Clan Leader.

Not right, not right.

Lian Xin shook her head, thinking that fool hasn’t become her A Zhu yet, why is she worried?!

At that moment, her eyes inadvertently glanced over to Zard and noticed his body swelling up in an instant, like yeast dough put in the oven, the high heat baking the dough into bread!

Lian Xin was startled and quickly ran to Zard’s side, shaking him: “What’s wrong with you? Are you okay!”

But Zard didn’t respond at all.

She knew it was precisely the time of transition between the Outer World and Inner World, when Time Travelers would return to the Outer World and then traverse back in an instant.

So, Zard must have experienced something in the Outer World to become like this.

She had seen Time Travelers travel and return in the wild settlement, but none had ever been this terrifying before and after traveling.

Could it be he was ambushed in the Outer World?

Thinking of this, Lian Xin got a bit anxious: “Hey, wake up!”

However, in the next second, snoring sounds came from Zard’s nostrils, and he was sleeping as soundly as could be.

Lian Xin: “…”

A person who was ambushed shouldn’t be sleeping so soundly, right?!

She scrutinized Zard, recalling that he promised to bring her snacks, but there weren’t any snacks around.

Liar.

While pondering, Zard let out a silly giggle in his sleep: “Lian Xin, you’re so beautiful.”

Lian Xin froze for a moment, then immediately put on a stern face and raised her voice to say: “Get up!”

Zard rolled over and jumped up, and upon seeing Lian Xin beside him, immediately beamed: “Lian Xin, I brought you a lot of things!”

As he spoke, he reached into his belly, pulling out chips, shrimp strips, preserved plums, spiced chicken feet, crispy rice, duck necks, mung bean cakes, chocolate, and wafer biscuits, piling up a heap.

Zard kept reaching in, pulling out Feitian Maotai, wine, Dahongpao tea leaves…

This time he truly bought as much as he could, made every effort.

Watching him grow thinner and thinner, it seemed as if his whole body was being emptied out.

Lian Xin thought to herself, so that’s why he suddenly got fatter, because he wanted to bring her things! The Earth Element Awakener Time Traveler could even do something like this.

At this moment, the Lian People’s tribesmen also woke up, gathered around Zard and curiously asked, “What is this? What is that?”

Everyone asked incessantly like curious babies.

Zard opened up all the snacks and distributed them among the people, then watched Lian Xin eat with careful attention.

Lian Xin ate some snacks and eventually found some duck necks; her lips were stained with a layer of red grease, appearing shiny and translucent under the firelight.

Zard stared dumbfoundedly.

Lian Xin angrily said, “What are you staring at me for?”

Zard scratched his head: “I’m observing what you like to eat best, so I can bring you more next time I travel. You were really happy eating the preserved plums just now, but your favorite is the extra spicy duck necks.”

“Hmm?” Lian Xin was momentarily stunned. She didn’t expect that he was observing this.

She turned her head slightly, nibbling on the duck neck, feeling that it was somewhat embarrassing despite her claims of not wanting snacks, yet couldn’t stop eating them.

But just at this time, Zard pulled out a white box from his chest, revealing a butterfly knot on top.

“What is this?” Lian Xin asked in confusion.

“Lipstick,” Zard said with a cheerful grin: “Your skin is fair, so it should particularly suit lipstick. A few days ago I saw your people using crushed flower pistils as lipstick, but that red isn’t right for you.”

The Lian People also have their own cosmetics, like petals for coloring nails, pistils for coloring lips.

Women naturally love beauty, and the culturally isolated Lian People are no exception.

However, although the color of petals is natural, they’re still not as pure and vibrant as industrially made colors.

Zard opened the box and said to himself: “I don’t know which shade suits you best, so I bought 21 of them at once. Once we find your favorite, I’ll get more for you…”

After he finished, he took out one, looking at Lian Xin expectantly: “Go ahead, try it.”

Lian Xin curiously asked: “Where did you learn all this?”

Zard thought for a moment and said: “After I got back, I called Xiao Tongyun to ask what gifts to give a girl, and she said lipstick is a good first choice.”

“Who is Li Tongyun?” Lian Xin raised an eyebrow, her brows long and firm, extraordinarily beautiful: “Do you have many female friends?”

Zard explained: “She’s my boss’s sister, she’s 10 years old this year.”

“Oh, I see,” Lian Xin took the lipstick, wiping off the oil on her lips before applying it gently.

Her fair skin complemented the bright lipstick beautifully, looking stunningly beautiful in the flickering firelight.
