Especially now that the current Emperor is diligent in his governance and doesn't even inquire about divination.
For the past ten years, the salaries of these old men have been reduced again and again. They themselves don't have much ability, and they dare not protest the decisions from above in the slightest.
In the end, the once well-organized and complex Bureau of Celestial Phenomena was reduced to almost nothing more than an official weather forecast, accurate to the city level.
Fortunately, this was still quite accurate, and there hadn't been any major errors in recent years.
However, this heavy rain completely exceeded their expectations. Soon, they also learned that the entire world, even including foreign countries, had been suddenly hit by such a rain.
"It's over, another salary cut is coming."
They could recite the following process without even thinking about it.
First, public criticism, then inquiries from above, and finally, salary cuts.
The faces of the old men were more miserable than the last, and the Bureau of Celestial Phenomena looked like it was filled with several wilted bitter gourds.
… …
The Nightmare Mirage Flower did not choose to take away the coral, but instead lay on the table, not saying anything, just staring blankly.
Qian Er looked at its earnest appearance. Although he didn't know what it was doing, he didn't have the heart to interrupt.
He stretched lazily and returned to his bedroom. The Blood-Burning Asura was sitting cross-legged playing games, his eyes fixed on the screen, completely focused.
Qian Er stood at the door, looked at the Nightmare Mirage Flower in the hall, and then at the Blood-Burning Asura in the bedroom, shook his head, and sat on the sofa.
The Maid Cat was cleaning and looked at the Nightmare Mirage Flower on the table with some surprise.
"Meow (When did Qian Er buy a figure...)"
Then, the big cat excitedly knocked on Qian Er's door.
"What's wrong?"
Qian Er looked at the Maid Cat with some confusion.
"Meow (The figure you put in the hall, although the workmanship is good, it's still missing something.)"
"Meow meow (I can help you customize a figure, guaranteed to be more refined than yours, and the price will be cheaper.)"
Looking at the Maid Cat's excited appearance, Qian Er looked at the Nightmare Mirage Flower still lying on the table, feeling a bit dumbfounded.
This wasn't the first time he had understood the Maid Cat's wide range of business, so he wasn't too surprised, just waved his hand and told the Maid Cat to be careful.
He knew the Maid Cat too well. If he didn't give a warning, the Maid Cat might even pick up the Nightmare Mirage Flower and Shuiyun later to examine them carefully.
After hearing Qian Er say that the thing on the table was very dangerous and infused with strong energy, the Maid Cat instantly lost any desire to touch it.
Late at night.
In the hall, a blue light glowed faintly, and the Nightmare Mirage Flower still stared unblinkingly at the blue coral.
The Shuiyun in its eyes was spinning wildly at this moment, looking extremely irregular, but there seemed to be a pattern, somewhat subtle.
A visible link formed between the two. The Nightmare Mirage Flower, surrounded by the halo, didn't feel anything, just watched the interplay of light and shadow between the blue coral.
The energy in its body expanded rapidly, but strangely, it didn't reject it at all. A brand new power was running through its branches and leaves.
The entire hall was already filled with a thick mist. The Nightmare Mirage Flower observed the rules of the Shuiyun energy operation, its consciousness completely blank, leaving only the Shuiyun deduction.
Waking up, Qian Er rubbed his eyes, pushed open the bedroom door, and blurted out two words.
"Holy crap."
What he saw was a milky white fog, and he couldn't see anything else.
Did the Nightmare Mirage Flower smoke in the hall??
He couldn't see anything in the hall, as if he was in the clouds. Qian Er lowered his head, reached out his hand, and couldn't even see his fingers, enough to prove how dense the water mist was.
Relying on his memory, Qian Er walked to the table and saw a strong light surging from the Nightmare Mirage Flower's body.
Qian Er's expression changed, and he didn't care about the water mist in the hall, quietly watching the Nightmare Mirage Flower.
After an unknown amount of time, as the light gradually disappeared, the Nightmare Mirage Flower looked at Qian Er with a radiant expression.
"Don't tell me you've become a demigod."
Qian Er spoke first, saying quietly.
From the Beast Taming Contract, he had already felt the Nightmare Mirage Flower's changes, but he couldn't understand it, he really couldn't understand it.
A dark-type beast, even if it also has a grass-type, shouldn't have such a big reaction to Shuiyun, right?
"Yes, I'm a demigod."
The Nightmare Mirage Flower nodded, and a figure "swooshed" out of Qian Er's room and landed in front of the Nightmare Mirage Flower in an instant.
"Good job! I knew you could do it!"
The Blood-Burning Asura smiled and gave the Nightmare Mirage Flower a thumbs up.
Then, the Myriad Transformations Demon, the Frost Radiance Bone Dragon... everyone appeared in the room one by one. The Skeleton King also came, and the misty hall became lively in an instant.
"No, how did you become a demigod, how did you become a demigod?"
"Are you saying that you, a dark-type, comprehended the Shuiyun deduction? Does that make sense?"
Everyone was quite incredulous about this, but after confirming that the Nightmare Mirage Flower was indeed a genuine demigod, they could only choose to accept it.
"Just this thing?"
The Curse Shadow Ghost pointed to the Shuiyun on the table. After receiving the Nightmare Mirage Flower's affirmative answer, it also lay on the table, its eyes fixed on the Shuiyun.
Everyone instantly quieted down, looking at the Curse Shadow Ghost in unison.
With the Nightmare Mirage Flower as an example, could another demigod be discovered?
"...I can't do it."
After a long time, the Curse Shadow Ghost shook its head.
Such a piece of coral, can it reveal a demigod?
"It's okay, Little Six, you will definitely have your own opportunities in the future."
The Blood-Burning Asura patted the Curse Shadow Ghost's shoulder.
As for achieving a demigod, the living room being a bit damp was nothing. Qian Er was very happy and immediately said that he would hold a celebration banquet.
"In addition to celebrating the Nightmare Mirage Flower's breakthrough to demigod, we also need to celebrate our Little Seven's evolution!"
"Yay!"
There was a burst of cheers on the scene.
Qian Er's proposal was approved by all the beasts. The Skeleton King scratched his head a little embarrassedly.
Qian Er looked at him curiously, just realizing that when the Skeleton King was shy, the runes on his body would flicker, like incomprehensible fonts blinking.
The celebration time was set for the next day, and the location was chosen in Stele City.
Although Qian Er now almost lives in the New City, Stele City is his first territory after all. The system of the New City is certainly effective, but it is all applied to strategic aspects.
When holding some activities, it is certainly not as good as Stele City.
As for the furniture in the hall that had already been made wet by the water mist, Qian Er immediately happily asked the Maid Cat to customize another set.
