In any case, under such pressure, even if the Sumeru and Mondstadt delegations remained silent, Liyue, being in the wrong, could only reluctantly let the Winter Delegation leave.

Of course, if the Eightfold Divine Child hadn't moved into Su Hao's house, the Winter Solstice Delegation wouldn't have been able to cause trouble, and they wouldn't have been able to make exceptions for themselves.

Liyue, Mondstadt, Inazuma, and Sumeru will join forces to question whether Winter is trying to make an exception for them.

If the Winter Solstice Mission were to rebel at this critical juncture, that would be perfect, as Liyue could then openly and legitimately punish the Winter Solstice Mission and the Fatui.

"No, I want to go back and rest." Xiaogong yawned. She was quite tired today. She had been on the boat all day, and everything was new and exciting after arriving in Liyue.

Now that the novelty has worn off a bit, Yomiya also wants to take a break.

Goro nodded slightly. He shared the same thought as Yomiya: having seen the long-awaited Lord Sango, he was naturally satisfied.

Kujo Sara did the same; she was in a businesslike manner, and since the chief priest had said so, she did it.

Ayaka Kamisato was reluctant to part with him, but there was nothing she could do.

Gan Yu noticed that Ayaka was reluctant to part with her, and she smiled gently, "Don't worry about it. Once the Summoning Ceremony is over, the delegations from various countries will be free to move around."

"These are special times, so there will still be some restrictions on the mission's movements in Liyue Harbor. I apologize in advance."

If it weren't for the special festival of the Summoning Ceremony, delegations from various countries could move freely in Liyue Harbor without any restrictions.

As long as the members of the diplomatic missions from various countries do not commit any crimes, they are free to act as they please.

However, special circumstances require special handling. Unless a god personally intervenes, even a member of the Thunder God's family like the Eighth God Child must act in accordance with the rules of Liyue.

"You'll be free to move around the next day too~" Yae no Miko said with a smile, looking at Ayaka Kamisato's somewhat reluctant expression. "If you get up early the next day, you can even come to Su Hao's house for breakfast. I believe Su Hao won't mind."

"I certainly don't mind." Su Hao was naturally not bothered by Yae no Shinji's words; what was there to mind?

If Ayaka Kamisato really wants to come for breakfast, Su Hao would welcome her. Back in the day, he was taken care of by the Kamisato family.

Although Su Hao has now become successful, his status and position are no longer something the Shenli family can touch.

But Su Hao and Ella always remembered that favor; otherwise, how could he have grown up when he had nothing but a house at the beginning?

"Hmm." Ella nodded, a rare occurrence for her; she also had a good impression of Ayaka Kamisato.

This young lady from the Kamisato family has given the young master and her a lot of help, if Kamisato Ayaka really wants to come over for breakfast.

Then breakfast the next day should be more substantial.

"Welcome! Welcome!!! Ayaka, you absolutely have to come! Shinobu and Isla's cooking is delicious!!!"

Paimon was very excited, after all, if Ayaka Kamisato came, the breakfast the next day would definitely be delicious.

As a foodie, Paimon definitely hopes that Ayaka Kamisato will come over.

The same goes for Ying. Although it was their first time meeting in real life, they had been chatting in the chat group for a long time and were already familiar with each other.

“Okay.” Ayaka Kamisato smiled, looking exceptionally happy.

"And what about me?" Yae no Miko interjected, "Can we have fried tofu for breakfast?"

"No." Su Hao sighed, looking at the Eightfold Divine Child with a hint of exasperation, "Eating such oily food so early in the morning, you'll get fat sooner or later!"

Yae no Miko puffed out her full chest, somewhat displeased, and said, "How rude of me! How could I possibly get fat?"

"My weight and figure haven't changed in the last five hundred years; I've always maintained a perfect state!"

Su Hao remained silent, because he had always suspected that the Eightfold Divine Child was secretly using the power of lightning to shape himself while eating so much every day.

Otherwise, with her eating habits, it would be impossible for her not to gain weight.

Look at Shinobu Hisaki, if she eats too much every day, she will choose to exercise more, but even so... she still has a little belly.

When Su Hao realized this, and then complained about Hisagi Shinobu's little belly.

After one night, Hisagi Shinobu's tummy disappeared completely.

Paimon was even more astonished and, seemingly oblivious to the danger, asked her how she had done it.

But Jiuqi stubbornly refused to say anything, and even said that she was going to visit her senior sister. She was gone for three days, until Paimon forgot about the matter, and then she returned to live there.

Su Hao knew that Kuki Shinobu had used elemental power to reshape herself that night. As expected of women, they were quite concerned about their appearance.

After a brief argument, Gan Yu led the Daoqi delegation away.

Xiaogong handed over the fireworks he had brought from Inazuma to Su Hao, explaining that they were family heirlooms and should be set off whenever possible.

This can be considered a belated blessing, but Xiaogong probably doesn't know that Su Hao currently has a house not only in Liyue.

There was also a large villa in Mondstadt, and in Sumeru, Narcida also personally arranged a large house for Su Hao.

Simply put, the Night Palace should make three sets of fireworks, no, it should be four sets.

After the Immortal Invitation Ceremony concludes, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Su Hao will be heading to Fontainebleau, where he plans to buy a large house to live in.

There's no other reason than that Su Hao insisted on it back then: no matter what, he absolutely had to buy a house in each country to live in!

"Young master, shall we set off fireworks now?"

Ella looked at the fireworks in Su Hao's hand and asked in a calm tone.

A glint of light flashed in Black Ella's eyes, and she asked with some eagerness, "Can I do it?"

Su Hao and [himself] had both set off these kinds of fireworks before, and Hei Aila also found them somewhat novel, so she also decided to set off some fireworks.

This is a family heirloom of the young master's family. Black Ella has seen it before from her own memories.

Only during festivals and holidays would [I] and the young master go to Xiaogong to order fireworks and then set them off in front of our house.

Black Ella will never forget how reassuring the young master's profile looked in the fireworks light up her memory.

“Not now.” Su Hao shook his head slightly. He casually tossed a firework to Black Ella and said, “The Summoning Ceremony is about to begin. It’s not appropriate to set off fireworks at this time.”

"Let's wait for the invocation ceremony... no, I should say let's wait until this incident is over before we set off fireworks."

Black Ella nodded without saying much, although she didn't understand why the young master said that fireworks couldn't be set off before the Immortal Invitation Ceremony.

Anyway, the young master must have his reasons for saying that.

"Is the Summoning Ceremony over? It'll only be a few days left~" Paimon shrugged, saying with a hint of helplessness, "The Traveler and I have to work overtime tonight, ugh, this is such a hassle."

"But after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow will be the Immortal Invitation Ceremony. When the Ningguang rewards are issued, hehe, the Traveler and I will treat you to a good meal!"

Paimon chuckled; she was already eyeing the rewards Ningguang had given her.

Ying remained calm, sensing that things were not so simple, as the ritual of inviting immortals was strange in every way.

The number of times the various gods in the group are posting has decreased. The gods of wind, rock, lightning, and grass are not posting much anymore. Even the god who used to chat in the group regularly has stopped posting.

Su Hao looked preoccupied, and with the arrival of the fourth executor servant of the Fatui, plus Tartaglia's recent stay in Liyue Harbor, this was compounded by his apparent preoccupation with other matters.

Ying is no fool; she naturally felt that something big was bound to happen in Liyue, though she didn't yet know what it was.

"Haven't they found anything yet?" Hisuki Shinobu asked at this moment. She felt a little strange. With the Traveler's skills, if the Fatui really had any clues...

They should have found out as well, and it wasn't just the travelers who didn't find out; Yura and Abedo in the group also mentioned it.

In the past two days, their Mondstadt delegation went to investigate the Fatui and found that they were all normal. They were fighting monsters and collecting debts as usual, and they never caused any trouble.

According to Yura, both Jean and Kaeya were completely dumbfounded, never expecting the Fatui here to be so "well-behaved".

Yes, it's quite surprising that the word "well-behaved" is used to describe the Fools.

"Nothing was found." Ying shook her head slightly. She was also puzzled, but at the same time she could understand why Ningguang had entrusted this task to her and the Mondstadt delegation.

This feeling of knowing exactly what the Fools are up to, but having no way to do anything about it, is indeed quite frustrating.

"Is the investigation going in the wrong direction?" Coral Palace Xin Hai asked, feeling that the investigation was indeed going in the wrong direction.

Because if you're going in the wrong direction, continuing down that path will yield no results whatsoever.

Hisaki Shinobu also wondered if everyone had gone astray in their investigation. Judging from the current situation, the Liyue Seven Stars, the Mondstadt delegation, and Luminous were all skilled at intelligence gathering.

Why haven't we found any information? The only thing we can be sure of is that the Fools of the Northern Bank are not behaving themselves.

Every so often, they would hold a meeting to discuss something.

Paimon casually remarked, "Actually, I'm wondering if our investigation was correct, but we shouldn't have investigated the Fatui, but rather the Fatui Executors?"

Paimon's words drew everyone's attention.

Paimon, however, said quite naturally, "Because these low-level guys, no matter how much they investigate, they can't find anything out at all."

"So we might as well investigate the executors of the Fools and get information from the prince and his servants."

Hisagi Shinobu rolled his eyes and said with a hint of helplessness, "If you want to get information from the young master and his servants, you need real strength too, unless Su Hao takes action."

"Otherwise, Paimon, do you think the young master and his servants would obediently sit there and talk to you?"

Strength is of paramount importance. Although Ying is quite good now, she is not enough to make the young master and servants obediently sit down and communicate with her.

Let alone her, even if Jean and Ningguang came to their door together, D'Artagnan and Arecino would choose to meet with them, but only if it involved important information.

They'll say it's classified information and they can't disclose it. What will you do then? Use force or your status to coerce them? That's obviously unlikely.

"Sigh~" Paimon sighed as well, then asked in confusion, "Eh? Where's Su Hao?"

Everyone looked around and realized that Su Hao had left sometime earlier, and Ella and Black Ella had also disappeared.

It seems that Su Hao, Ella, and Black Ella left while they were discussing.

Clearly, Su Hao had no intention of getting involved in this discussion.

Chapter 425 How did Morax fake his death?

While Ying, Paimon, Kuki Shinobu, Kokoro, and Mona were discussing something, they suddenly realized that Su Hao had left.

Hisuki Shinobu and Shinkai, with their keen intuition, blinked, feeling as if they had discovered something.

Given Su Hao's personality, he would likely have joined the discussion instead of leaving.

Could it be that Su Hao discovered something? Or that he knows some secret? And that's why he doesn't intend to discuss it?

Knowing this, Hisuki Shinobu and Shinkai stopped discussing it, because if that were the case, the Fools probably wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.

Ying thought the same way, so although she investigated carefully, she couldn't help but not take the matter to heart.

Paimon was the only one who was very nervous, because she knew nothing about it and felt that the Fools were up to something bad, so she was very worried.

Mona remained calm, feeling it was no big deal. Liyue was too powerful right now; how could anything happen to them?

Su Hao didn't intend to discuss this topic because... he knew everything.
