That devil, that devil... The woman trembled every time she thought of that devilish smile.

Even if the Ice Queen came today, she would still have to leave!

Anyway, the Fools' army is strong and well-equipped, and there's plenty of manpower, so there's no need for her to stay here.

"But, my lady, Liyue's situation is special; we might not be able to manage on our own here..."

"Don't worry." The woman waved her hand, interrupting the other party. "Believe in yourselves. Since you are the elite of the Fools, you will definitely be able to fulfill Her Majesty the Queen's request."

Liyue?

Even a dog wouldn't stay here!

She decided to go to Mondstadt next door. Mondstadt was wonderful; the people there yearned for freedom, spoke sweetly, and the scenery was beautiful. She really loved Mondstadt.

Just then, a member of the Fools rushed over from behind.

Chapter 28 Tuozi: A Thousand-Year Feud, Now Is Here!

"Your Excellency, the latest news has arrived from the Kingdom of Winter."

The woman frowned, took the document, and looked at it.

His expression immediately changed.

"What's that guy, Bo 389, doing here?"

The message they brought mentioned that the Doctor had actually arrived in Liyue a long time ago.

However, the doctor came secretly and is hiding somewhere, so we don't know what he's up to.

The above means that she should check on the doctor's condition and cooperate with the operation if necessary.

The woman cursed under her breath.

The doctor is a madman; she doesn't really like him.

A madman versus a demon, absolutely brilliant.

Add to that the young master's tendency to cause trouble at the drop of a hat, and she felt like she was surrounded by ticking time bombs.

"But... now that the Doctor is here, maybe this time it really will work?"

Thinking that this time the demon might really suffer, the lady hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked back to Liyue Harbor.

...

Meanwhile, Su Zhe and Ke Qing were strolling in the mountains.

The ley lines in this area are stable, making it extremely difficult to pinpoint the source of this power.

So Su Zhe had Ying call Zhong Li over earlier to confirm his location.

Fortunately, the giant rock dragon isn't coming out immediately. As long as the rock dragon doesn't bother Liyue, there's enough time. The problem is how to deal with the giant rock dragon.

However, Ke Qing was always restless, so Su Zhe simply went with her to visit the immortals in Jueyun.

Centered on the Fulong Tree, the other energy points are likely located in the Jueyun Pavilion.

"Actually, after learning of the Emperor's passing, what I was most worried about was not Liyue itself, but the immortals."

"The immortals signed a contract with the Emperor to protect Liyue. Although thousands of years have passed, I am not sure whether their protection stems from the duty of the contract or from their own love for Liyue."

"I hope it's the latter, but whatever the case, we have to prepare for the worst."

Ke Qing rarely talks about her innermost thoughts with others. Perhaps it's because Su Zhe's identity is somewhat special. Although he is an immortal, he is close to people, and they were friends first before Su Zhe became an immortal.

There is a fundamental difference in this respect. Su Zhe genuinely enjoys spending time with people, so Ke Qing has never questioned him.

But the immortals of Jueyun are different; they have been out of touch with Liyue Harbor for far too long.

Human life is fleeting, but the changes it brings to Liyue are never-ending. From this perspective, Keqing's concerns are not unfounded.

Refusing to understand the true immortals of Liyue makes it hard to imagine the emotions they feel as they protect this land.

"Perhaps the Liyue they see is the same Liyue that humans see, only presented in a different way."

Su Zhe said with a smile, "Don't lose confidence so easily. No contract can remain unchanged for thousands of years. If there is no affection involved, the contract will wear down and deteriorate over time."

He began to understand why Zhongli wanted him to be the head of all the immortals.

As a bridge connecting humans and immortals, Su Zhe's existence is especially important in Liyue, which is currently undergoing changes.

But he didn't explain much; instead, he took Keqing up Mount Ozang.

Upon reaching the mountaintop, we didn't see the birdman in the distance, but we did see Shen He enjoying his 'lunch'.

The white-haired girl, her mouth stuffed with Qingxin, turned to look at the two of them.

Su Zhe's lips twitched.

Shen He had stayed by her side for three days before letting her rest. However, this girl didn't really like sleeping. Her way of resting was to walk in the mountains and pick some 'delicious' things.

Ke Qing and Shen He were already quite familiar with each other, so they nodded to each other when they met.

Su Zhe looked at her, about to ask where True Monarch Liuyun was, when a solemn voice came from the distant cave.

"Who dares disturb my peaceful cultivation?"

That was the voice of the True Lord of Cloud Retention and Wind Borrowing.

Shen He turned to the two of them and said, "Actually, Master already knew you were coming. She specifically ordered me to wait here while she went back to her cave, saying that she couldn't lose the sense of ritual of the immortals."

Su Zhe and Ke Qing: "..."

The two looked towards the cave again and found that True Lord Liuyun had appeared at some point and was standing in the pool outside the cave with his back to them.

Wisps of celestial energy floated on the water's surface, permeating the land with a rich, otherworldly aura. Yet, as True Lord Liuyun stood there, he felt that the immortals themselves were missing, replaced by an unknown species of crane.

"So it was the Great Sage Who Overturned the Sea, and the Jade Balance Star."

Liu Yun Zhenjun's voice was calm and composed, "Speak, what do you need me for?"

Keqing bowed slightly: "Greetings, True Lord Liuyun. We have come here today because we have discovered something important that could cause turmoil in Liyue, and we have specially requested your assistance."

"Oh? What is it? With us immortals here, there's no problem."

Su Zhe said, "True Lord Liuyun, this matter is of great importance, please don't be afraid."

Liu Yun Zhenjun raised his bird head without turning around: "Overturning the Sea Great Sage, we are immortals, we have nothing to fear."

"The Dragon King Ruoduo is about to break free of the seal."

Quiet.

There was a moment of silence.

"What!?"

The large bird turned its head, stretched its neck, and flapped its wings vigorously, striking the water's surface.

"Are you telling the truth!?"

"Of course it's true."

Su Zhe told Liu Yun Zhenjun about the discovery of Tianqiu Valley.

The birdwoman, abandoning her previous composure, immediately unleashed two magical spells. Shortly after, Xiaoyue and Lishui appeared one after the other.

"Where is the Great Sage Who Subdues Demons?"

"He doesn't need to use magic to call him."

Liu Yun Zhenjun asked Su Zhe to try calling his name.

Su Zhe shouted into the air, and a wisp of green smoke drifted by, transforming into the shape of a demon.

Besides Xiao, another person suddenly appeared at the same time.

"Gan Yu, why are you back?"

"Lord Liuyun asked."

"Master, there's more..."

Gan Yu looked at Su Zhe and Shen He.

Although it was her first time meeting Shen He, she had heard a lot about him from Liu Yun Zhenjun, including a lot of Shen He's dark history.

As for Su Zhe, the two had hardly ever met formally. Su Zhe wanted to, but unfortunately, this Miss Ye Yang was just too busy.

This time, Gan Yu and the travelers came to Jueyunjian. Zhong Li deduced several locations. She came back to find helpers, but she didn't expect them all to be here.

"This is the location marked by Mr. Zhongli."

She unfolded a map of Liyue, with several points marked with red lines.

The immortals, including Liu Yun, exchanged glances, all surprised.

"This human named Zhongli actually possesses such abilities?"

Having lived in Jueyun for so many years, the immortals naturally knew where the earth's vein power could be accumulated.

It is truly unbelievable that a human could deduce this.

Although they knew the Emperor was not dead, Zhongli had only appeared in a dream and had not come to have tea in person.

Currently, only Su Zhe, Grandma Ping, and Xiao know his identity.

Xiao is mainly used to suppress the karmic obstacles on his body, and he needs Zhongli's medicine.

In addition, Xiao Ren is ruthless and doesn't talk much, making him much easier to manage than people like Liu Yun Zhenjun.

"Such talent, and you Seven Stars don't even bother to recruit him?"

Keqing rolled her eyes. "You think I don't want to? But what can you do if they don't want to?"

Ke Qing had tried before, but Zhong Li always managed to evade her advances in roundabout ways.

And for some reason, every time she chatted with Zhongli, she felt that he always had a smiling face, which was a bit awkward. It even felt... very 'kind', like an elder looking at a junior.

It left her completely bewildered.

"True Lord Liuyun, is the position on this map correct?"

Su Zhe changed the subject.

"Yes, it's basically what we guessed."
