Chapter 41: 41

"No problem, as long as you don’t come into this valley." The mountain deity shook her head.

"That’s good, when you’ve recovered, you can come down the mountain to play with us." Xia Yue said, beaming.

"As I’m reviving my divine body now, even if I’m in deep sleep, it can nourish the water and soil around. If you plant fruit trees here, their taste will be better than anywhere else. But please don’t hurt the creatures here." The mountain deity made a request, looking at them. She knew that if a place was exploited by humans, the plants and animals in the forest would be disturbed, or even many animals would be killed.

"No problem at all, we’ll try our best to protect the local ecosystem. It will be a unique feature of the resort." Xia Yue agreed instantly.

"Thank you!" The mountain deity nodded with a smile, spreading light around her body, and disappeared in front of them.

"Gone? She’s gone back?" Xia Yue blinked at the empty space.

"Yes, it seems the issue has been resolved. Let’s go home." Yan Mo nodded.

"Let’s go." Xia Yue nodded and left the valley entrance with him.

"Feels like we haven’t accomplished anything. We’ve been fooled by that darn system." Xia Yue grumbled as they were descending the mountain.

"Not really, this mountain can nurture a deity which indicates its ecological environment is superior to other places. And as the deity said, fruits and crops grown here taste great." Yan Mo commented with a smile.

"Yeah, also, she is so beautiful. Just looking at her makes you feel good." Xia Yue said with a laugh.

"That’s probably because of her ’affinity’, I guess." Yan Mo replied.

The two chatted away as they descended the mountain, finally reaching the foot after half an hour.

"Do you want me to accompany you anywhere else?" Yan Mo asked Xia Yue.

"No need, you can go get busy. I’ll go rest in my room." Xia Yue shook her head. After walking for such a long time and having spent quite an amount of spiritual power, she felt very tired and just wanted to lay down.

"Alright." Yan Mo nodded.

Summoning her strength, Xia Yue made it back to the Main Courtyard and lay on the couch in her room.

"Oh, I’m so tired." After lying down, Xia Yue felt much better, but her arms were aching.

"Host, you’re really not fit, are you? You should join Yan Mo and others in exercising. You ran for just over an hour, and you’re completely wiped out." The system commented, seeing Xia Yue’s tired state.

"Nah, exercise is so exhausting." Xia Yue refused.

"...Laziness will be the death of you." The system retorted.

"Ah, it would be so nice to be a salted fish and not worry about anything. Why do we have to work so hard?" Xia Yue pondered.

"..."

After lying down for a while, Xia Yue sat up and poured herself a glass of water to drink, then lay back down to read a novel about a spirit making money for its master.

Reading this, Xia Yue thought of the mountain deity.

"Host, you’re not thinking of recruiting the mountain deity as an employee, are you?" The system caught Xia Yue’s thoughts instantly, surprised by her ambition.

"Just thinking. Maybe when the time comes, it wouldn’t hurt to discuss. But she’s in hibernation now, and who knows when she will awaken. Let’s wait until she’s awake to discuss." Xia Yue laughed and replied.

"Actually, that’s not a bad idea. As a mountain deity, she can control the animals in this area. We can allow guests to interact with those animals which would be seen as a harmonious relationship between humans and nature." The system quickly analyzed the popularity of this idea and relayed to Xia Yue.
