Genshin Impact, Raiden Shin joins the chat group

Yae no Miko definitely couldn't win, but just because she couldn't win doesn't mean she couldn't achieve victory on the battlefield.

Therefore, having the divine child intervene would surely resolve many of Ying's issues.

As for Shin and Kage taking action, that would be no small matter, so Su Hao still recommended that Ying go find Yae no Miko.

The phrase "omnipotent eightfold divine child" is not a lie.

In a sense, even Abedo is not as omnipotent as Yae no Miko.

"Mm." Ying nodded slightly, indicating that she had made a note of it.

"By the way, when are you planning to go to Inazuma?" Su Hao thought it would be a good opportunity to ask Ying when she was planning to go to Inazuma.

With things mostly settled in Liyue, Ying naturally had time to begin her next trip.

Knowing that her brother was alright, Ying wasn't in a particular rush to travel.

In Liyue, it was the same; she ate, drank, and played well before leisurely heading to Inazuma, a stark contrast to the hurried feeling at the beginning of the game.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it should be in the next few days." Ying said decisively, looking at Su Hao as she continued, "Because things here are almost done."

"I've already discussed it with Paimon, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, we'll be waiting for the Inazuma delegation to return together."

The various delegations will remain in Liyue for a few more days.

Apart from the Winter Solstice Mission, which is temporarily unable to leave Liyue, other missions will likely have to pack up and leave.

As Falushan mentioned at the dinner table, she had almost finished everything she needed to do in Liyue.

They renewed their contract with the Liyue Septim and also earned a large amount of Mora through the Summoning Ceremony event, which can help with the Order Institute's deficit crisis.

Sumeru still has many things to do, and considering the time spent traveling, Farusan will probably have to set off for the return journey the day after tomorrow.

The timeframe for the Eightfold Divine Child depends on the situation; it could be as early as three days or as late as seven days.

"Is that so?" Su Hao thought it made a lot of sense. He looked at Ying and said, "However, if it's possible, could I ask you for a favor?"

"what?"

For a moment, Ying was stunned, because for some reason, she seemed to see a purple exclamation mark appear above Su Hao's head.

Of course, this was something she saw in a daze, and Ying thought it was just a hallucination caused by having too many things to do lately.

"What is it, Su Hao? Just tell me! I can do it! The Traveler will definitely get it done for you." Paimon patted his chest, indicating that he had agreed on behalf of the Traveler.

"It's actually very simple." Su Hao looked at Ying with a smile and said, "After you've spent some time in Inazuma, go to Haiji Island, which is the Sea of ​​Hearts, and look for Wan Ye."

"It seems there's been a bit of a problem with Manyo. Could you also keep an eye on the Sanbing for me? Oh, no, he should be called Kabuki-zhe now."

"Let's see what state he's in now, even though the general and I have placed a seal on him."

"But the appearance of members of the Abyss Order made me feel that things were not so simple."

Without a shred of guilt, Su Hao assigned the task to Ying, asking her to investigate what the Abyss Order was planning to do on Haiqi Island.

According to Manyo's description and Sara's private conversations with him, this was possible.

The Abyss Order's target is most likely the Abyss Palace beneath Haiqi Island.

But the situation has changed now. We should be on guard, but we should also be cautious. Maybe their target is the stragglers?

So Ying was sent over to keep an eye on things, so that if any problems arose, she could resolve them immediately.

“Okay, no problem.” Ying readily agreed, patted her full chest, and said seriously, “Leave this matter to me. At the same time, I also have some questions I would like to ask the people of the Abyss Order.”

"Hopefully, the Abyss Cult we're facing this time will be a little more talkative."

Chapter 495 The dinner party is over, Hai Deng invites you again~

After finishing their conversation, Su Hao and the others immediately returned to the private room in Liuli Pavilion.

It was almost time to part ways; everyone had almost finished eating.

Although Lei and the Dragon King Ruotu continued eating, it seemed they could never get enough to eat.

But both Ying and Ruo Tuo knew they couldn't continue eating, because if they did, their disguises would be exposed.

Eating a lot is fine, but eating too much might attract strange looks.

If they were attending the dinner under other identities, they could eat whatever they wanted, since neither of them was afraid of their identities being exposed.

However, for the sake of Morax (Rock King Emperor)'s disguise, Lei Movie and Ruo Tuo Dragon King will still choose to exercise some restraint.

"Oh, you're back! The Great Sage has already left, hasn't he?"

When Hu Tao saw that Su Hao, Ying, and Paimeng had all returned, she knew that Xiao had already left.

“Hmm.” Su Hao nodded and replied, “Xiao said he was ‘satisfied’ with today’s hospitality, but next time, there’s no need to make it so extravagant.”

When Su Hao said these words, he looked at his table, or rather... he gave Zhong Li a special look.

Zhongli silently drank his tea, completely unaware that Hu Tao would call Xiao over.

If Zhongli had known that Xiao would be coming, he would have told him beforehand, no matter what, so that Xiao wouldn't be too nervous during the dinner today.

"I see." Hu Tao nodded seriously and said in a serious tone, "It seems the rumors are true. Immortals prefer peace and quiet. There are too many people today, which makes the Great Sage a little uncomfortable."

"Next time, let me and my guest minister go together to entertain the Great Sage."

Hu Tao wasn't stupid; she could tell that Xiao Shangxian seemed a little uncomfortable having come to dinner today.

Hu Tao initially thought it was because she hadn't taken good care of things, but Su Hao's words made her suddenly realize something.

Yes, immortals naturally prefer tranquility, and with so many people gathered today, he'll probably feel somewhat uncomfortable no matter what.

So next time, let's bring our guest ministers to entertain the Great Sage.

"This……"

Su Hao hesitated, unsure of what to say.

Good news, Hu Tao understood her subconscious meaning.

Bad news: Hu Tao plans to take Zhong Li to entertain Xiao.

Su Hao silently prayed for Xiao's safety, hoping he would be alright.

"Ah~ I can already picture Xiao's headache-inducing expression."

Paimon's expression was also very subtle. She leaned closer to Ying and whispered, "Traveler, before we leave Liyue, why don't we go to Wangshu Inn and tell Xiao about this?"

“If this continues, I’m afraid Xiao’s karma will erupt again.”

Ying's expression was also somewhat subtle at this moment. She nodded slightly, agreeing with Paimon's words.

Because Ying was also afraid that Kurumi might unconsciously trigger Xiao's karmic repercussions again.

The other party had already triggered the demon's karmic retribution once before; if it happened again, the scene would be truly spectacular.

Although the karmic obstacles within the demon's body have dissipated considerably due to the concentrated resin, they are still there.

"Alright, alright, Su Hao, Traveler, Paimon, please sit down first, don't stand here."

At this moment, Hu Tao gestured for Su Hao, Ying, and Paimeng to sit down instead of standing there.

Although it's not long since the show is ending, it still feels a bit strange to just stand there.

Su Hao, Ying, and Paimeng listened to Hu Tao and sat down again, starting to discuss various matters with the people around them.

Soon, perhaps because the atmosphere was right, or perhaps because the food had been almost finished, Hu Tao stood up again, picked up a cup of tea, and addressed everyone present.

"Gentlemen, thank you all for gracing us with your presence for dinner today."

"Before leaving, I also have something to say. Today is the ceremony to send off the immortals, which may seem like a sad day to outsiders."

"But I've been accustomed to life and death since I was a child, and Lord Yan once said that the cycle of life and death is the natural order of things."

"Humans die, and immortals die too; it's just a matter of one dying briefly and the other dying a long time."

"I think that when Lord Yan invited the immortals to perform the ceremony last year, he probably already knew that his time was up, which is why he made a contract between humans and immortals."

Therefore, today is a day worth celebrating!

"If last year's Summoning Ceremony was a turning point for Liyue, then this year, or rather today, marks the arrival of a new era for Liyue."

"I don't know what the future holds, but I hope everyone eats well, drinks well, and has fun in the days to come! *applause*"

Hu Tao's words were as amusing as ever, and her meaning was very clear.

That is, the reason she is holding this banquet today is to celebrate Liyue entering a new era, although it is unclear what the future holds for this era.

Anyway, let's celebrate first with Walnut, and ignore everything else for now.

"Pah pah pah pah~"

Applause erupted, and everyone clapped along.

"Does our guest elder have anything to say?" Hu Tao looked at Zhong Li and chuckled, "In the past, these words would have been spoken by our guest elder."

"However, since I've suddenly felt like it today, I'll do the talking myself~"

"Is there anything else you'd like to add, guest elder?"

Zhong Li shook his head slightly. He glanced at his old friends beside him, who seemed quite interested in his speech.

This made Zhongli, who was about to say something, immediately shut his mouth, and said with a somewhat helpless tone, "What the hall master said is very good, I have nothing to say."

"It seems I was right today." Hu Tao was quite happy, since Zhong Li had nothing to add.

That means what she said was correct; otherwise, given Zhongli's personality, she would have added a few more comments.

"Well then, thank you all for coming today. If there's nothing else, you can all leave now. I'll go settle my bill first."

After saying that, Hu Tao drank the tea in her cup and then walked towards the door.

Although Liuli Pavilion said that Hu Tao could get a free meal, Hu Tao wasn't stupid.

She knew very well that Liuli Pavilion had unilaterally waived her bill because of Su Hao, and even wanted to take the opportunity to curry favor with Su Hao, the acting Rock God.

But Su Hao was his friend, and the other party came to Liuli Pavilion for dinner because of him.

No matter what, she could never accept this favor. Although she was familiar with the owner of Liuli Pavilion, they weren't that close.

I still have to pay the Mora I owe, otherwise I'm afraid I'll be in serious trouble.

If the owner of Liuli Pavilion finds an opportunity to meet with Su Hao next time, he might say, "Do you still remember the dinner that Hall Master Hu treated us to?"
