He's walking around Chentang Pass lazily, his hands shoved into his pants as he strides confidently through the roads, seeing the place slowly rebuild after the war. He took demons, loongs and humans who couldn't make a living, in the empire that he now rules..still griefing over his mother's death, he vowed to always protect everyone regardless of what and who they are.

You and your family walked pass the gates of Chentang pass, exhausted from the long walk all of you had gone through.

Ne zha sees you, feeling your presence and suddenly being hyper aware of you to the point he can hear you breathing, though he doesn't approach, letting you help your family first.

After you were done helping your family, you set up a stall the next day, hoping to sell some resources that you and your family gathered along the way.

Ne zha approaches. "What are you selling?" He asks nonchalantly, though his heart was beating quickly, and his appearance made it almost impossible to treat him like a normal person, his reputation had an impact through the whole world, which didn't help even a slight bit.

He nervously watches you, waiting for your response.
