[Oh, something? Yes, I have it. It's this—a magical pill that won't make you fat no matter how much you eat.]

Jiang Ning fell silent. No, what use would he have for this thing?

To quote the pink-haired, chubby lady next door, she has a very unpleasant side effect: she's perfectly beautiful and can eat as much as she wants without gaining weight...

Yeah, they won't grow tall either.

"Excuse me, don't you have anything useful?"

No, I won this in a lottery.

The system said.

"Wait... it seems like Senior Sister can use it."

Jiang Ning suddenly remembered that his master had mentioned that Senior Sister Gan Yu liked to lose weight.

They usually only eat vegetarian food and don't eat meat.

Well, I'll bring it to my senior sister when I get back. However, Jiang Ning is still very curious as to why Gan Yu is so keen on losing weight.

I'll ask my master when I get back.

Back in Liyue Harbor, Jiang Ning handed the people over to the Thousand Rock Army, instructing them to keep a close watch on them, and then turned to find Keqing and Ningguang.

After reporting the situation, Ke Qing looked displeased and said that it would be dealt with seriously.

In addition, we also need to secretly investigate all the people from the Seven Stars and Eight Gates.

If there are any more people like Wanyan, remove them from Liyue Harbor immediately.

You've got too big for your britches, eating and using things from Liyue, and then you're still thinking about "overthrowing the Qing and restoring the Ming."

Keqing, who outwardly disrespects the Emperor but is secretly a fan of him, immediately rolled up her sleeves, ready to get down to business.

Ningguang also provides full support.

However, before that, Keqing sincerely invited Jiang Ning:

"Jiang Ning, I've come up with a divine constitutional system based on the constitutional monarchy you mentioned. Could you help me take a look at it tonight?"

"No, no... I think this thing is a bit outrageous..."

Jiang Ning refused outright, finding the name itself outrageous.

Watching Jiang Ning drive away quickly, Ke Qing was also a little puzzled: "I think it's fine..."

Ningguang smiled but remained silent.

After leaving Qunyu Pavilion, Jiang Ning was spotted by a group of onlookers.

"Did you see that? That immortal disciple has come down from the Jade Pavilion again..."

"Yes, I saw it. Tell me, in the end, will it be Lady Keqing or Lady Ningguang who wins the heart of the beauty?"

"Huh? Is that how you use this word?"

"That's roughly the idea, everyone understands."

The crowd was buzzing with discussion, already imagining the battleground between Yuheng Star and Tianquan Star.

There's nothing we can do about it; Jiang Ning is good-looking, has a noble status, is capable, and most importantly...

Ke Qing often kept asking Jiang Ning questions, which, in other people's eyes, was a clear sign of pursuing him.

As for Ningguang, she was the only person of the opposite sex who didn't need to be notified and could enter the Qunyu Pavilion at any time.

That explains the situation quite well. With the Adventurers' Guild's Lan Jie constantly gossiping and fueling the flames, Liyue has basically started a secret stock market, just waiting to see which of the Seven Stars will win the heart of the beauty.

Of course, there are other types of stock listings, such as "Master Sister Stock," "Second Master Sister Stock," and even some that are so daring as to disrespect the immortals by listing "Master Stock"...

The head of the hall, the cook, and the lawyer all have their own supporters. Of course, there are even more outrageous ones who support Jiang Ning and Guoba.

Incidentally, Ningguang's stock price remains high, closely followed by the two senior sisters.

Keqing's stock price isn't even as high as Guoba's, which is quite absurd. Perhaps this is related to Keqing's stereotypical image of being a hard worker who likes to work overtime.

After leaving Qunyu Pavilion, Jiang Ning went directly to Zhongli.

Zhongli was still leisurely enjoying his tea in the courtyard.

Jiang Ning placed the scroll directly in front of Zhong Li: "Master Zhong Li, I've finished using this, so I'm returning it to you."

Zhongli silently put it away, then asked, "How was the trip?"

Jiang Ning took a sip of tea and said, "It's alright. We can take this opportunity to reorganize the Seven Stars and Eight Gates. This time, the Silver Dollar Hall among the Eight Gates has received special attention, after all, Wanyan comes from the Silver Dollar Hall."

"I mean, after reading history and seeing it in person, what's your opinion of Heureia?"

Jiang Ning said, "A pathetic demon god deserves pity, but not sympathy. Besides, strength is the only true measure of power."

"If it were me, I would definitely hone my skills. Who cares what kind of opponent I am? I would fight, just like the Rock King Emperor, sweeping away all directions and protecting my own peace."

After all, before transmigrating, he was a conservative in China and always felt that the country's firepower was insufficient, while he thought that the radicals were too conservative.

Zhongli had an expression that said, "This child is teachable."

Yes, it's so similar! That explosive temper and the way he'd resort to violence at the slightest provocation.

Back in the day, I was outwardly calm but actually quite irritable... If you don't believe me, ask the demon god who was suppressed by the rock spear.

Jiang Ning has some ulterior motives, but he knows that strength is the most powerful asset... Not bad, really not bad.

Zhongli was increasingly satisfied with the successor he had chosen.

In the future, when cultivating, I can certainly produce more rock elemental energy imbued with my own powers...

However, Zhong Li found Jiang Ning's special talent quite interesting.

The elemental power containing his own Rock Power will manifest as Rock Power after Jiang Ning absorbs it, but his own power will not be damaged. It will only consume a tiny fraction of his elemental power and he will recover in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

If this continues, wouldn't my Geo Authority never be depleted, and then Jiang Ning would have to acquire another Geo Authority?

Interesting, so interesting.

Zhongli pondered for a moment, then said, "Take out the salt god's relic that you just mentioned, which was taken out of the salt in the earth, and let me see it."

Jiang Ning took out the utensils and the broken ruler and placed them in front of Zhong Li.

Zhongli sensed it carefully for a moment, and then said, "Even a demon god will be nothing but a passing cloud... Apart from these few demon god powers and some of Heulia's aura, nothing else remains."

"Back then, the land of salt was considered a rich and prosperous country."

Zhongli originally intended to reseal the demon god's relic and keep it company with the demon god under the Lonely Cloud Pavilion.

However, thinking of his disciple's special abilities, he said, "You should absorb it. Although it's only a little bit of the Salt God's power, it's still a means to an end. At least you can carry fewer things when you're in the wild."

For once, Zhongli showed a bit of humor.

Jiang Ning nodded, then closed his eyes and began to absorb the nutrients.

In no time, the vessel and the broken ruler lost their original luster, and the aura of Heureia and the authority of the Salt God that they contained disappeared.

[Host, your thing has been activated; that power has been enhanced.]

The system reminded.

Jiang Ning nodded, then said, "Then help me strengthen the authority of the Salt God."

This system is practically making it clear that it wants to strengthen the authority of the Salt God.

After the enhancement, Jiang Ning felt as if something had been added to his body, but he didn't think much of it and decided to experience it more carefully later.

Seeing Jiang Ning's satisfied expression, Zhong Li said, "You've gained quite a bit this time, and your swordsmanship is now sufficient to handle most people. However, you still need to be cautious when facing stronger opponents. Go back and hone your skills with Gan Yu and Shen He."

Jiang Ning looked suspicious: "Master, have you been secretly following me?"

Zhongli's expression remained unchanged: "No, it's just that nothing that happens in Liyue can be kept from me if I want to."

Jiang Ning nodded, not thinking much of it, simply attributing it to the magic of the immortals.

Zhongli drank his tea, smiling but saying nothing.

The winds of Mondstadt will tell Barbatos Mondstadt everything, but won't the lands of Liyue tell me about Morax?

You can sit in Liyue Harbor and watch what your junior disciples are doing while you're having tea.

We can only see it for a short period of time. Once he has completely gained the same power as us, we won't be able to see it anymore.

[Host, there's something I'm not sure if I should say.]

"Just say it."

[That Geo elemental your master gave you feels different from ordinary Geo elements; it's like the difference between a superior and a subordinate.]

"Isn't this normal? Master is an immortal and a geo elementalist, so he must be more powerful than an ordinary geo elementalist."

Oh, I see... The system is quite easygoing. It thought its host's explanation was reliable, so it happily used its accumulated points and performance bonuses to buy things.

I need to start collecting materials as soon as possible.

After bidding farewell to Zhongli, Jiang Ning also hurried home.

I bought a lot of things along the way to bring back to my master and senior sister.

Back home, upon seeing Xianyun, Jiang Ning couldn't contain his curiosity and, while Gan Yu was still away, asked:

"Master, Senior Sister Gan Yu, why are you so keen on losing weight?"

Upon hearing this, Xianyun immediately perked up.

And just like that, a conversation started.

Xianyun sat up straight, casually placing one hand on her chest to accentuate her figure, and began to chat:

"Let me tell you, this child Gan Yu..."

114. Rolling down the mountain with a gurgling sound.

"In other words, it's because Senior Sister Gan Yu was too fat when she was little, and she would gain weight easily after eating. During the Demon God War, she accidentally rolled down the mountain, and another time she was swallowed by a giant beast, accidentally choking to death..."

"That's why you're thinking about controlling your weight and losing weight?"

Jiang Ning silently covered her mouth. No, she couldn't laugh... She finally knew about her senior sister's shameful secret.
