Upon hearing Su Hao's direct rejection of the heir, Ye Lan and Ning Guang exchanged a glance and smiled at each other, but said nothing further.
Because in the hearts of the two women, Su Hao was undoubtedly the [Successor of the Rock God].
Yelan witnessed everything. The professor personally said that Su Hao had obtained the inheritance of the Rock God, and when the Rock King appeared, he also entrusted Su Hao with the relic of the Dust Demon God Gui Zong.
This might be a form of recognition, acknowledging Su Hao as their successor.
However, Su Hao did not say that he was the "heir". Neither Ningguang nor Yelan could say anything, since the Emperor must have had a deeper meaning in saying so.
For thousands of years, Liyue Harbor has firmly believed that what the Emperor says is true.
Just like this summoning ceremony, no matter how many times Keqing says how great humanity is, how many things they have created, or whether the Emperor will still protect Liyue Harbor thousands of years from now, etc.
Without the Emperor's decree, the era of humans and immortals would never have been established.
Furthermore, the fact that the Emperor mentioned having an heir likely signifies that his era has passed, and that he is cultivating a new successor to give Liyue a brighter future.
"But what brings you here this time? Is it for the Blood Jade Branch?"
"But didn't you say you'd come back to pick it up in a few days?"
Ningguang looked at Su Hao with some curiosity. If she remembered correctly, she had met Su Hao not long ago at the Immortal Invitation Ceremony.
Logically speaking, the other party shouldn't have anything to ask me.
If the other party had something to say to me, they would have already said it during the invocation ceremony.
Furthermore, regarding the Blood Jade Branch, the other party also said that there was no rush and that it would be the same to come and pick it up in a few days.
Could it be that he wants to tell me in private that he is the successor of the Emperor?
At this moment, Ningguang was quite interested in Su Hao's arrival. She was curious about what he wanted to do by coming to Qunyu Pavilion to see her.
“Dartaria has come to me with a reward I cannot refuse, asking me to come and explain things to you, or rather, to the Fools.”
As soon as Su Hao spoke, Ningguang and Yelan looked at each other again, and they saw surprise in each other's eyes.
Clearly, Ningguang and Yelan did not expect that Su Hao was a lobbyist for the Fools' Enforcers.
"What is it?" Ningguang asked with a smile.
Ye Lan remained silent, watching Su Hao quietly. Since the topic concerned the Executors of the Fools, she, as a "small fry," had no right to interrupt.
"It's about a machine."
Su Hao repeated what Dadalia had said to Ningguang, about the biological evolution machine and the Rock Dragon Lizard scales that Dadalia had killed, which had partially evolved into an Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard.
Ningguang was also informed of the Abyss Order's theft of the Fatui's possessions and their subsequent arrival in Liyue to carry out some kind of plan.
After hearing all this, Ningguang's smile remained. She looked at Su Hao and asked, "What's your opinion on this matter?"
"Me?" Su Hao was surprised that Ning Guang was so calm and even asked him what he thought about the matter.
This made Su Hao subconsciously glance at Ye Lan, only to find that Ye Lan's expression was also normal.
Su Hao couldn't help but wonder if Ye Lan had also learned of this news, which was why she hadn't appeared at the Summoning Immortals Ceremony today, but instead appeared at the Jade Pavilion.
To be a bit bold, Yelan and Ningguang were just discussing how to deal with the Fools.
“Hmm.” Ningguang nodded, then looked at Su Hao with a smile and asked, “After all, you are a member of Thor’s family, so you must have your own insights on this matter. I would like to hear your opinion on this.”
After hearing Ningguang's words, Su Hao pondered for a moment and said intuitively, "It's probably true that the Fools' things were stolen, because no matter what, the Doctor just died, and the Fools certainly don't want to cause any more trouble."
“As the executor in Liyue, Tartaglia is definitely doing something shady. He probably wants that machine because he has his eye on the Rock Dragon Lizard.”
"He just didn't expect that the Abyss Order would steal the item and use it at this critical juncture. Therefore, in my opinion, he is now a good weapon."
"A good sword to deal with the Abyss Cult. I believe he will seize this opportunity to prove himself."
Putting everything else aside, Tartaglia is indeed quite good. Not only is she extremely skilled in martial arts, but she also possesses the authority of the Ice Queen.
Liyue is currently in a very delicate phase. The policy on humans and immortals has just been established, and everything is in its initial stages.
Although they don't know what the Abyss Order is up to, Liyue can use powerful members of the Fatui like Tartaglia to test the waters of the Abyss Order and see what they're really up to.
According to Su Hao's idea, it would be to let the Abyss Order and the Fatui fight like dogs. No matter which side wins or loses, it would be quite beneficial to Liyue.
"Hmm." Ningguang stretched out her hand and began to clap. She looked at Su Hao and exclaimed, "As expected of a member of the Thunder God's family, you know very little information, but you were able to come up with the best solution based on Tartaglia's one-sided account."
"In fact, we also obtained information about the semi-evolved Rock Dragon Lizard through Yelan and Qianyan Army."
"Professionals were also sent to examine their bodies, and the final result was... their evolution was a process of rapidly increasing their potential and lifespan."
"Given the fact that the Abyss Order is keeping an eye on you, I suspect they're after what you obtained from the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard."
Upon hearing Ningguang's words, Hisagi Shinobu and Ella seemed to realize something and turned their gazes toward Su Hao.
Because Su Hao (the young master) does indeed possess a relic of an ancient rock dragon lizard, which he often takes out to play with.
Su Hao also took out a relatively large piece of unfinished jade and placed it on the table. This was considered the most precious evidence left behind by the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard in this world.
"Is this the uncooked jade from inside the ancient rock dragon lizard?" Ye Lan looked at the crystal-clear uncooked jade on the table and said with some surprise, "Although I have seen similar things inside rock dragon lizards."
"But the immature jade inside the ancient rock dragon lizard is completely incomparable to the immature jade inside the rock dragon lizard."
Yes, if the immature jade inside the ancient rock dragon lizard is crystal clear, it is just like real jade.
The unfinished jade inside the rock dragon lizard is a rough jade that appears to be full of impurities and has not yet been polished.
“What a pity.” Ningguang looked at the unripe jade on the table, shook her head, and said with some emotion, “If the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard hadn’t attacked humans, if it hadn’t been so bloodthirsty, perhaps in a few hundred years, it would have become a real dragon.”
"A dragon powerful enough to shake mountains and tear the earth apart, but unfortunately it chose the wrong path and was killed by the immortals."
Ningguang sighed, after all, the unripe jade in front of her represented the possibility of transforming into a dragon.
It's just that the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard chose the wrong path, went against the people of Liyue, and even tried to break the Emperor's seal, drawing out the Dragon King who was once sealed underground, which led to the siege and killing by the immortals.
"That just shows how stupid he is." Su Hao shrugged. He wasn't quite sure why the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard hated humans so much.
However, he didn't want to know the answer, because the moment the ancient rock dragon lizard awoke, it immediately attacked them. If they hadn't been strong enough, they would have been eaten long ago.
To feel pity for the enemy is to be cruel to oneself.
"but."
Su Hao looked at Ningguang and Yelan and continued, "Indeed, when the Abyss Order attacked me, they even released a few Rock Dragon Lizards."
"Those rock dragon lizards seemed to sense the unripe jade I was carrying, and they attacked me like mad dogs."
"In other words, their ultimate goal is still the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard, but now that the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard is dead, they want to create another Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard."
Yes, several times the rock dragons saw him and charged at him with red eyes.
This made Su Hao understand that they hadn't attacked him out of nowhere without reason.
Rather, it was the unripe jade of the ancient rock dragon lizard on their own bodies that held immense attraction for them; simply put... it was the travelers who saw the treasure chest.
Furthermore, Su Hao speculated that if a Rock Dragon Lizard were to eat the unequaled jade, was there a possibility that... the creature would evolve into an Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard in a very short time?
Although the probability is very small, it doesn't mean it's nonexistent.
The Abyss Apostles probably came to attack me with this in mind. As for why they stopped coming later...
On one hand, it was probably Brother Long's order; on the other hand, the Abyss Apostle probably knew that he couldn't defeat him.
So they had no choice but to turn their attention to the Fools and steal a forced biological evolution device from them.
Then, on the land of Liyue, one or two Rock Dragon Lizards that did not fully evolve were created?
This is truly a case of picking on the weak.
“We already know that.” Ningguang placed her hands on the table, crossed them, and said with a playful smile, “And, just as you said before.”
"I intend to form a temporary alliance with the Fools to jointly resist the Abyss Order's conspiracy."
"In any case, the Abyss is a target that the entire continent of Teyvat needs to resist; they are extremely dangerous beings."
"Although I think the same applies to Winter, they can be set aside for now compared to the Abyss Order."
"With this answer, I believe that executive officer will breathe a sigh of relief."
As she spoke, Ningguang revealed a cunning smile, after all, this was a good thing for Liyue with no harm whatsoever.
Although the Fools didn't want to take the blame, they had no choice but to accept it since the machine belonged to their country.
Now that we've taken on this responsibility, it's quite reasonable for the Fatui to send strong fighters to fight and investigate alongside the Thousand Rock Army in order to resist the Abyss, right?
"Hmm." Su Hao nodded. He knew that the information that Dadalia had given him was essentially a free gift.
Because Ningguang saw through the whole truth from the beginning, this woman's ability to become Tianquan was not just due to her ability to make money; her intelligence network was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Even if Su Hao hadn't arrived today, Ningguang would have put some pressure on Dadalia before cooperating with him.
"However, could you please refrain from intervening in this matter?"
At this moment, Ningguang spoke up again, looking at Su Hao pleadingly, "It's not a big deal to let Zhidong get involved in the battle of the Abyss Order."
"But if you take action, it might be difficult to explain to the immortals."
The Liyue Seven Stars have just received a mission from the Emperor: as humans, their first task is to thwart a conspiracy from the Abyss Order.
The immortals can observe from the sidelines to see if humans are truly capable of handling these matters.
Although Tartaglia's identity is special, the fact that he helped Liyue only shows that Liyue's Seven Stars are very capable, as they were able to pull him over as a henchman.
However, if Su Hao were to intervene, it would only show that the Seven Stars of Liyue are utterly incompetent, having to rely on their friends to help Liyue overcome this crisis.
Therefore, regardless of the circumstances, Ningguang does not want Su Hao to intervene in this incident and assist Liyue in dealing with the Abyss Order.
"Don't worry." Looking at Ningguang's expression, Su Hao chuckled and said, "After I send Ella back to Mt. Ozang tomorrow, I'll be heading to Mondstadt. Even if you ask me to handle this matter then, I might not be able to get there in time."
Ningguang and Yelan were slightly taken aback, as they had no idea that Su Hao was leaving Liyue for Mondstadt.
How come they've only been in Liyue Harbor for a short time? How come they went to Mondstadt so quickly?
Keep in mind that Su Hao has only been in Liyue for less than ten days, and after buying a house, he still wants to go to Mondstadt?
Is there something important going on?
Before Ningguang and Yelan could ask Su Hao what business he had going to Mondstadt for.
Su Hao pushed the unripe jade forward and looked at Ning Guang, saying, "But since you won't let me make a move, then this unripe jade is yours."
"I don't know how to use this thing, so I'm leaving it to you guys. Maybe it can lure out the Abyss Order."
