To be honest, if he were one of those shop owners, and the Rock God died, and he turned around and saw someone eating and drinking without caring at all, wouldn't he pick up a stick and beat him up?

Of course, Zhongli is the Geo God. Doesn't he know whether the Geo God is dead or not?

"It's quite chaotic."

Su Zhe looked around and said.

“Indeed.” Zhongli sighed softly. “The passing of the Emperor is a momentous event, but the most important thing now is to unite and deal with the external enemies. The Teyvat continent is not peaceful everywhere. If Liyue, which has lost the protection of the Geo Archon, does not unite, it will surely be swallowed by calamity.”

At this point, a hint of worry flashed in Zhongli's eyes.

Although Liyue's current situation was within his expectations, if it continued to be out of control, Liyue would be doomed.

“Mr. Zhongli is right, but I have a question.”

"Please speak."

"Mr. Zhongli, there shouldn't be any vacancies in the positions of the Seven Gods, right?"

"That's the theory."

"If that's the case, then even without the Rock King Emperor, won't a new Rock God appear soon?"

In fact, Su Zhe was quite curious about the succession of the Seven Gods. The Seven Gods were formed under the rules of the Heavenly Order. So, after the Seven Gods in office died, how was the next God determined?

"This matter concerns divine secrets, which I am unaware of."

Even if Zhongli knew, she definitely wouldn't tell.

If I say it, won't my identity be exposed?

"However, it is rumored that the Sumeru gods have changed, but no terrible wars have occurred. Now that the war between demon gods has ended and the continent has entered a period of peace, there will probably be no more fighting for the godhood."

“Su Zhe, what you just said, from a generally rational perspective, means that after Morax falls, a new Geo Archon will take over in order to maintain the stability of Liyue.”

Su Zhe nodded thoughtfully.

Since Zhongli said so, the inheritance of the Seven Gods is likely based on the will of the current Seven Gods, as stipulated by the laws of nature.

If someone dies too quickly and doesn't have time to choose a replacement, that's another story.

However, since the Rock God didn't die, there's no such thing as a legacy.

Su Zhe pondered, unaware that Zhong Li's gaze held a strange, profound meaning.

After a while, a person strode towards them from not far away.

"Zhongli, Zhongli! You're here! I've been looking for you for ages!"

Before the person even arrived, a burst of fiery red primordial energy exploded with a 'bang,' and even Su Zhe could feel the impatient nature of this Hall Master of the Hall of Rebirth.

"Huh? Who is he? Is he here to apply for a job as a hostess?"

"Master."

Zhongli gave Hu Tao a brief introduction to Su Zhe.

"Oh, so you're a friend." Hu Tao waved her hand, not paying any attention, and pulled Zhong Li aside, saying, "I have an urgent task for you now."

Zhong Li remained silent for a long time, and Su Zhe clearly saw an unnatural look flash across his eyes.

This kind of thing is really rare for Zhongli.

"Master, what is it now?"

"Well, you see, isn't the Rock King Emperor dead? I was thinking that just crying wouldn't do any good, so shouldn't we hold a funeral for the Emperor? But it's been several days now, and there doesn't seem to be any movement from the Seven Stars side, so I went to the Jade Capital Platform to talk to the Thousand Rock Army, but they kicked me out."

Su Zhe and Zhong Li: "..."

Girl, you're really something.

Zhongli seemed used to Hu Tao's unpredictable wit and asked calmly, "Then why is the Hall Master looking for me?"

“I see you know that Lord Tianquan, right? Could you go and talk to her? I remember Liyue has always had a ceremony for sending off immortals, but they definitely don’t have time to prepare it. We used to send off people at the Hall of Rebirth, so sending off immortals now isn’t a big deal, is it?”

To be honest, Hu Tao really wanted to hold a ceremony to send off the immortals for the Emperor.

Now that Liyue Harbor is in turmoil, it needs people who can get things done to step forward.

What's the use of just crying and making a scene?

"A ceremony to send off immortals?"

Su Zhe feigned surprise, "What do you do?"

"It's for the funeral of immortals."

"This seems like a good idea. Now that the Emperor has passed away, we should indeed hold a grand farewell ceremony as soon as possible."

"Oh! -- You think so too?"

Hu Tao looked at Su Zhe, her eyes lighting up. This young man has a lot of potential.

"By the way, if we're going to use the celestial ceremony, do we need to use that... that thing from the Rock King Emperor?"

Hu Tao tilted her head: "Um?"

"That's the one..."

"The Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Transformation, the body of the Rock King Emperor."

"Yes, yes, that must be it."

Su Zhe suddenly thought of a question.

Although Zhongli faked his death, the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Transformation should not be an ordinary item, right?

Logically speaking, since it is the body that bears the power of the Rock God, the energy it contains should be considerable.

If Zhongli doesn't want it anymore, it would be such a waste to bury it. It would be better to let him devour it!

Perhaps breaking through to the fifth rank will make things easier.

With that thought, Su Zhe immediately felt wide awake.

"Mr. Zhongli, what will happen to that immortal ancestor's physical remains that you just mentioned?"

"Normally, it would be disposed of along with the ritual of sending off immortals."

"If there is no immortal ancestor's physical body, can a ceremony to send off an immortal be held?"

A hint of doubt flashed in Zhongli's eyes.

Why is this child so interested in the Immortal Ancestor's physical remains? Isn't it just an empty shell?

"From a general rational point of view, it is acceptable even if it is not there. This has happened in previous ceremonies for sending off immortals."

Alright!

Su Zhe chuckled: "Since that's the case, then I'll just go talk to Ningguang. I think she won't refuse to hold a ceremony to send off the Emperor as an immortal."

"you?"

Hu Tao asked doubtfully, "Are you sure you can do it?"

"Of course I can do it, no doubt about it."

"I have my doubts."

"Believe me, I can't do it by running naked around Liyue."

"Hmm, not bad." Hu Tao raised her hand and patted Su Zhe's shoulder, saying in an old-fashioned tone, "If you succeed, I'll make you an honorary guest of our Rebirth Hall."

"Guest retainers also have honors?"

"Of course! Anyway... well, go ahead, we'll wait for your good news. Come find me at the Rebirth Hall once you've sorted things out!"

Watching Su Zhe jog away, Zhong Li thought of a question.

Is it a case of him organizing the funeral rites for the immortals, or is he essentially sending himself to his own funeral?

It's quite fresh.

...

Over here, Su Zhe quickly found Ning Guang and explained the matter of the Immortal Sending Ceremony.

Things are different now. Su Zhe is not only a giant whale, but also the 'Great Sage Who Overturns the Sea' conferred by the Emperor. He is an immortal. Ningguang always felt that something was amiss at the time. Now that she thinks about it carefully, the Emperor must have been careless to suddenly bestow an immortal title upon him and send out a group notification before the consultation on immortals!

The power of gods is naturally beyond the comprehension of mortals.

Perhaps the Emperor foresaw this calamity and thus temporarily bestowed the title of Immortal, giving Liyue an extra boost.

Ningguang thought about it more and more and felt that this was true, so her trust in Su Zhe was now rising rapidly. With the Emperor gone, the importance of Su Zhe, the Great Sage Who Overturned the Sea, became even more prominent.

Putting everything else aside, with his status as an immortal, it would be easier to deal with those immortals from the Jueyun Realm who came to question him.

She immediately agreed to Su Zhe's suggestion, and when he asked about the Immortal Ancestor's mortal body, she did not hide anything and told Su Zhe that it had been transported to the Golden House.

"I will not stop you from organizing the ceremony to send off the immortals, but you must be careful of the fools after you come into contact with the immortal ancestor's physical body."

Ningguang's expression was serious. "In the past few days, while dealing with matters in Liyue, I have also noticed that the Fatui have been making frequent moves, as if they are looking for something. If I am not mistaken, it is probably related to the Immortal Ancestor's Manifestation."

"The Fools? What do they want with the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Transformation?"

"I don't know, but given the current situation in Liyue, I really don't have the energy to deal with them, so I can only ask you for help."

Ningguang wanted to arrest all the Fatui and end it all, but the current situation was turbulent, and it would not be beneficial for Liyue to provoke the Fatui before things stabilized.

"Do not worry."

Su Zhe smiled and nodded, "I'm here."

Right now, the young master should still be investigating the matter of the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Body. If he wants to devour the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Body, he has to get his hands on it before the other party does.

But we can't just rush into this, otherwise Zhongli will definitely find out, and it will be hard to explain then. We can't exactly say that we ate it ourselves, can we?

So, the Fools can be used to their advantage. After all, they already have a bad reputation, so it doesn't matter if they get another scapegoat, right?

As for what to do if the young master doesn't have the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Body, that's none of his business.

Anyway, there's no divine heart in the Immortal Ancestor's mortal body, so it doesn't matter whether I give it to the young master or not.

In the end, the young master simply used the Unrestricted Talisman.

And Oser's identity is waiting for her at any moment.
