Chapter 1197 - 1194: Kicking Me Is Like Kicking the Speakers

"If you want to sit on the Wandering God's sedan chair, right now, you might not be able to..."

Ah Qing pondered for a moment and then chuckled, "But you don't need to feel disappointed, you'll get to sit there sooner or later."

If it were any other matter, as long as the Little Fox spoke it and could achieve it, Ah Qing wouldn't hesitate to go with the [Little Fox wants, Little Fox gets] approach.

But to be the Main God of the Wandering God, the prerequisite is gaining recognition from the residents and common folk. Only then is it possible for people to voluntarily worship and, each year, respectfully invite the Little Fox out to wander across mountains and rivers.

Though different villages have different Main Gods, all the Main Gods share a common trait.

Which is, during their lifetime, they had accomplished outstanding achievements, saving the local residents from disasters.

After their death, the folks voluntarily worshiped, hoping that good people could ascend to the ranks of Immortal Gods after passing away.

The Little Fox is still very much alive, managing to order takeout on its own every day. It doesn't need future generations to carry the Fox Immortal Statue around the village to observe future developments.

However.

Ah Qing feels that the Little Fox still has a lot of potential in becoming a Main God.

After all...the Fox Immortal Temple's shrine sees visitors coming and going every day, and donations are made using POS machines. Without them, WeChat wouldn't be able to handle such large donations.

"Me? Oh, no..."

Upon catching Ah Qing's conversation, Ansheng snapped back from his wandering thoughts, with a peculiar expression, waving his paw:

"When you guys bring my statue out from the Fox Immortal Temple for parades, I truly can't tell if everyone is showing respect or flogging a corpse..."

Ansheng knows all too well how the Fox Immortal Statue of his has been abstracted into some cyberpunk appearance.

Should it really be taken out from the temple, it would definitely top the popularity rankings across multiple platforms.

"Uh... you seem to have a point, then why did you say you wanted it just now?" Ah Qing was taken aback, recalling the Fox Immortal Statue that held a gun and cannon while bearing teachings from multiple religions. Her expression involuntarily showed some peculiarity.

"What I want is that 'dong dong qiang'. Imagine, when I, myself, go out, accompanied by a symphony orchestra, strong speakers blaring, then I suddenly pop my head out and say directly: 'Who dares kick my speaker?'"

Ansheng spoke with sheer delight, narrating how, even before Master Fuli's true form arrives, his divine image first appears, transforming into a High Tower where battle drums thunder, spreading flesh pollution over a wide area.

The entire realm would be overturned by the sound, and amidst countless mimicking flesh creatures singing and laughing, he would make his entrance.

The scene could easily be mistaken for a horror movie.

In terms of intimidation, it would be off the charts, no need for him to speak, the wicked could hear the sacred sound just fine.

"Hmm... seems quite adorable?" Ah Qing tried to mentally visualize what the Little Fox just said in her mind.

An symphony orchestra playing the Ode to Joy.

The Little Fox poking its head out from the curtains, joyfully hopping around the stage in a big circle, sitting at the front gazing at the audience, mouth opening with a 'ying ying ying'...

In all honesty, the Little Fox lives up to being a master of cuteness, casually speaking out keywords for cute moments. The only downside is that at home, he can't afford a symphony orchestra.

"Adorable? You really have unique tastes..." Ansheng subconsciously glanced at the scene of the Zhuangzhong Wandering God, stunned, and remarked to Ah Qing, who praised his idea as adorable.

A large procession of Wandering Gods marched past Chen Zhiyu's house, paused briefly, then continued onward. The Purification Furnace Hand and Coachman took the lead, circling the village.

The Wandering God of Changping Village assembles at 7 AM and officially begins the parade at 8 AM, lasting till midnight with fireworks continuously being set off.

Of course.

The staff of Tower Bone Divine General take turns; it's not one person for the entire parade.

Otherwise, if one were to parade through multiple villages according to the established route, the staff inside would be utterly exhausted.

After watching the Changping Village Wandering God's parade, Chen Zhiyu began arranging a delicacy feast to entertain Master Fuli.

Incidentally, inviting Master Fuli to the fishing ground to oversee those cheeky big fish's exams.

On the way to the test site.

Lagging slightly behind, Lin Bingyun suddenly paused, took out her vibrating phone from her pocket, glanced at it, then stepped forward to pat Master Fuli's arm and quietly said:

"Master Fuli, there's a message for you, Zhang Lin said to call her back when you have time."

Meanwhile, watching the live stream and listening to the viewers talk to Ah Qing about last night's "meteor spectacle," Ansheng glanced side-eye at Lin Bingyun, questioning with a "ying" sound:

"Can't she just, you know, dare to wish my butt a happy new year?"

Ansheng left Ah Qing's shoulder, landing on Lin Bingyun's shoulder, casting an intricate gaze at the phone screen.

The live stream discussion about the "meteor spectacle" is actually referring to last night when Master Fuli launched the Nine-tailed Blessed Travel Cannon over Jiule's sky.

Stretching from south to north, crossing Xia Country's sky is a spectacle anyone with sane eyes could see.

On this morning's news broadcast, they're still talking about how it's a rare meteor spectacle seen in so many years.

Meanwhile, America's space agency, perhaps pressured by some force unknown, issued a clarifying announcement shortly after the meteor streaked across, stating the unidentified flying object over Xia Country's sky was undeniably a meteor.

However small in size, they hadn't anticipated the spectacle created, thus no prior announcement was made.

As the live stream discussed this, news from the Imperial Capital's Security Bureau's Zhang Lin arrived.

Ansheng was all but certain that Zhang Lin's message was about wishing his fox butt.

"Hello?"

Lin Bingyun veered to the left, hidden on the roadside, handed the dialed phone to Master Fuli's ear. Ansheng asked Zhang Lin on the other side of the call.

"Happy New Year..." Zhang Lin softly chuckled, offering a blessing to Master Fuli before she continued.

"Calling early on New Year's, I hope I didn't disturb Master Fuli's rest?"

"In Xia Dong, where is Ansheng's rest? Firecrackers sound from morning till night." Ansheng responded, his tone curious, "So... you're calling because of what happened in Jiule City last night?"

"That's not my jurisdiction, decision-makers and academic experts are celebrating wildly! They're saying, warmly celebrating the birth of Xia Country's first live creature intercontinental missile..."

"Clean, environmentally friendly, no pollution, launch it, bomb someone else's place, and still come out righteously, saying something about reaping what you sow, facing divine retribution."

Zhang Lin's tone was teasing, speaking about the post-"meteor" launch events, while expert teams were rushing to Tang You's metal refinery, carefully appreciating the Fox's handiwork.

"I'm reaching out for another matter, earlier you mentioned increased vigilance against abnormal natural disasters to the Security Bureau?"

"Well, just twenty minutes ago, we observed characteristics fitting those abnormal disasters."

Upon hearing this part, Ansheng couldn't see Zhang Lin's expression, yet from the tone, a peculiar emotion could still be sensed, a mix of surprise and sigh:

"However, it wasn't a forecast from the National Earthquake Bureau but from the National Observatory under Xia Country's Academy of Sciences."

"It's... outer space suddenly warped, then a creature wrapped in a halo emerged, headed towards Blue Star."

"Based on the observatory's forecast, the unknown creature will enter Blue Star's atmosphere three days later in the evening."

A question mark popped up in Ansheng's mind, who exclaimed in disbelief:

"What, are aliens coming to attack Blue Star?"

"That probably isn't the case..." Zhang Lin shook her head, saying: "We 'heard' fluctuations of Spiritual Particles on that halo."

"It must also be a Spirit Beast, just, unsure why it's drifting in space. Upon spotting such unusual entities, we promptly sought guidance from Lu Tiannan."

"According to Lu Tiannan's account, he vaguely recalled the Spirit Beast, but couldn't recall specifics, possibly needing to consult Shasha."
