BXBX NOVEL Chapter 408 Goddess Chang’e With Weak Alcohol Tolerance
Chapter 408 Goddess Chang’e With Weak Alcohol Tolerance
Li Nianfan knew who she was. The lady was naturally the main character of ‘Chang’e Flying to the Moon’. Her name was Chang’e.
In ‘Journey to the West’, Chang’e was the iconic female Immortal in the Heavenly Palace. She was not the one that Zhu Bajie flirted with. That was another Goddess.
Li Nianfan smiled and said, “I see, so you’re Goddess Chang’e. I won’t be a trickster for your tears, I’ll be punished by lightning.”
Chang’e laughed shyly. She teased, “Don’t say that, Lord Saint. I’m afraid I’ll be struck by lightning, too.” She was teasing the fact that Li Nianfan was the Deluxe Merit Saint.
“Haha, you have your looks, I have my talents. We’re more or less the same.”
Li Nianfan laughed. Then, he invited, “Goddess Chang’e, do you want to have a drink with me?”
“I won’t be courteous then.”
Chang’e floated to the attic with her flowy dress and sat across Li Nianfan.
Li Nianfan looked at Goddess Chang’e in front of him. He felt dazed. The big round moon in the background implied that the real Moon Goddess was sitting in front of him. The Moon Goddess was having a drink with him. What a fresh experience.
Li Nianfan took out a crystal glass and poured Chang’e a drink. “Goddess Chang’e, after
you.”
“Thanks, Lord Saint.” Chang’e was bolder than Li Nianfan imagined. She raised the glass and chugged the wine.
She instantly blushed.
Li Nianfan had to remind her, “Um... Goddess Chang’e, my wine’s quite potent. You should relax.”
Chang’e smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Lord Saint. My alcohol tolerance is quite high. Perhaps you want to save up on the beautiful wine?”
“Ha, of course not. Feel free to drink as much as you want.” Li Nianfan smiled and waved it off. He looked at how flushed Chang’e was and doubted her.
Soon, his doubts were evident.
Chang’e was quite emotionally unstable because of Li Nianfan’s poem.
Chang’e was drunk after the third glass of wine. She looked into Li Nianfan’s eyes and smiled. “Saint, your story-making skills are incredible. Even I was touched,” she said while she took out a small book. ‘Chang’e Flying to the Moon’. The book also included pictures. It was sort of like a comic book.
Li Nianfan instantly felt awkward. The main character came to find him to argue.
He coughed softly and said, “I was forced to do so. Please, don’t be mad at me, Goddess Chang’e.”
“I don’t blame you, I have to thank you.”
Chang’e batted her eyelashes at Li Nianfan. Her pale face was flushed. Her breath smelled of alcohol as she said, “The story’s beautiful. I became well-known because of it, some even call me the Moon Goddess. I’m popular now, and my Moon Palace is no longer lonely and deserted.”
“As long as you like it, Goddess Chang’e.”
“Ha, Mr. Li, do you know why I married Hou Yi in the first place?”
Chang’e talked to herself, “In the beginning, the Humans were born. They were weak. They barely survived amongst the Demons and the Witches. Thankfully, the Witches fought amongst themselves. Humans were able to survive and reproduce...”
Li Nianfan did not interrupt her. He was also curious about it. He quietly listened.
However, Chang’e suddenly stopped talking. She picked up the wine gourd and poured herself another glass of wine. Then, she chugged it. She half-laid on the table. She went from a graceful Goddess to a drunk Goddess.
“Then, the father of the Witches was tricked by a Three-legged Golden Crow. He was burned alive. Hou Yi was one with the Witches. He wanted revenge. He took Di Jun’s ten sons out to play. They burned the earth and made the Humans suffer.”
Chang’e paused. Then, she said, “The Humans decided to work together with the Witches. They were going to kill all ten sons of the Three-legged Golden Crow. It was biologically difficult for the Witches to procreate. So, they brought up the idea of marriage with Humans. They wanted to marry Humans so there’d be more Witches.
“At that time, my father swore to end the suffering of the Humans. He accepted their idea. Hou Yi shot down the Suns to show sincerity. Then, I was married off to Hou Yi.”
Chang’e spoke softly. Her beautiful eyes slowly closed because she was drunk. She had long, thick eyelashes.
Even so, she did not forget to refill her glass.
However, she was stopped by Li Nianfan. “Goddess Chang’e, you’re drunk. Stop drinking.”
“Nonsense. I have a high alcohol tolerance. How can I get drunk?”
Chang’e suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were bloodshot. She looked like she was about to act like a drunkard. She twisted her body and fought for the wine gourd. “You want to save up on the wine, right? I’ve been lonely for so many years. I finally found someone I can talk to so how can you be so stingy? How about I dance for you?” “No, please, don’t!”
Plop!
She plopped on the table and went silent. She snored softly.
“Phew...thank God.” Li Nianfan felt grateful. If she went nuts on him, it would create a lot of rumors.
Chang’e had an awesome background. Her father was Emperor Ku. He had a lot of Deluxe Merit and he was one of the original Five Emperors.
Truthfully, no one dared to flirt with Chang’e.
However, it was unexpected that...the famous Goddess was a drunkard and she could not drink. Her alcohol tolerance was weak.
Li Nianfan looked at the snoring Chang’e and felt troubled. He could not let her sleep on the open roof. ‘Oh yeah, how much did she drink again? ‘Six glasses I think. So easily drunk.’
He remembered that a wise prophet once said, ‘If a girl isn’t interested in you, her alcohol tolerance would be through the roof. If a girl’s interested in you, she’d be wasted after a mere few glasses.’
Li Nianfan stared at Chang’e with wide eyes. He looked at her shut eyes and tried to be calm. He said, “Goddess Chang’e? Goddess Chang’e?” Li Nianfan probed. “I know you aren’t drunk. Stop trying to seduce me. Stop acting, get up.”
No reaction. Li Nianfan was blushing hard. ‘No way, I can’t keep staring at her. Something will go wrong.’
“Goddess, wake up, Goddess.” He tried to poke Chang’e with his finger. It seemed like she was completely wasted.
Li Nianfan licked his lips and stood up. He looked around and made sure no one noticed them. He saluted Chang’e and said, “I’m forced by the situation, sorry for the offense.”
He took a deep breath and slowly reached out to her. He searched for an area to place his hands and clenched his jaw. In the end, he carried her by the waist. Then, he started to walk downstairs.
The good news was that Chang’e was very light. She was almost weightless so it was easy to carry her. The bad news was her body was too soft. She was soft and bouncy. Li Nianfan did not dare to use any force. Also, she was drunk. She unconsciously hugged Li Nianfan back.
Yikes.
Li Nianfan gasped and finally brought her downstairs.
He was about to sneak into a room but he suddenly heard a ‘creak’. Nanan and Dragin both curiously peeked inside.
The three of them made eye contact. They went silent.
Dragin looked at Chang’e with wide eyes. She covered her mouth and exclaimed, “Brother, you’ve been bad!”
However... Li Nianfan felt like she somehow sounded excited.
As expected, her eyes lit up. She asked excitedly, “Do you need help?” Nanan was more professional. She thoughtfully asked, “Do you need us to kill her?”
Li Nianfan felt awkward. His face sank and said sternly, “You two came at the right time. She’s all yours. Also... No television for a month!”
Meanwhile, at the Western Sea.
A few Flying Fish Demons leaped through the water’s surface into the air. They were soon at a mysterious sea border. Then, they swam into the depths of the sea.
They entered a dim sea cave. The Flying Fish Demons all transformed into half Human forms. They walked to the deepest part of the cave to meet an elder.
The elder had an extremely thick long beard and long hair. His beard was straight and long like a ribbon. His face was thin and he had a red dot on his forehead. He looked stern and powerful without even seeming angry.
He did not open his eyes. He calmly asked, “How was the battle at the Western Sea?”
One of the Flying Fish Demons gulped. It answered in a trembling voice, “The Western Sea army...lost!”
The elder suddenly opened his eyes and frowned. He growled, “What happened?”
The Flying Fish Demon immediately told him everything. The elder frowned harder.
“Deluxe Merit Flesh?”
He hurriedly made some calculations with his fingers and found no answers. He felt confused and could not predict what was going to happen.
“The Absolute Era suddenly stopped. The secrets of the realm are puzzling and chaotic. Multiple change of events. It most probably is another catastrophe!”
The elder squinted. He glared as he said, “We Demons had a high chance to rise again after the catastrophe! Is that Octopus Demon stupid or something? Why did it attack someone who was playing the zither? How dare it touch the Deluxe Merit Flesh? It ruined my big plans! It deserved to die!”
He groaned for a moment and said with a low voice, “The Heavenly Palace is something else. They have hidden tricks up their sleeves. Let’s leave it be first. We should gather the Demons during this urgent time.”
The Flying Fish Demon said, “Ancestor, the Demons aren’t at peace either. The Southern Sea Dragons and the Kirins are acting up. They’re quite ambitious. Also, the Fire Phoenix and the Nine-Tailed Fox are leading a big group of Demons. They wanted to gather the Demons, too. The weirdest part is the Dog Demons. The Dogs have been gathering. We’re unsure of the reasons. I feel like...there’s a bigger picture!”
“Dog Demons?”
The elder sneered and scoffed, “Ha. After the catastrophe, everyone came out to play and forgot their place. They dare call themselves rulers now?”
