In Genshin Impact, I'm really not Muzan.

“Your aunt isn’t very good at handling crowds, so please remember to take good care of her,” Ryou said, putting her arm around Chongyun’s shoulder.

Upon hearing this, Chongyun was taken aback at first, then immediately nodded: "I understand, don't worry, Uncle, I will definitely take good care of Aunt."

"What you said sounds a bit strange..." Ryou's lips twitched involuntarily. For some reason, hearing Chongyun's last sentence always reminded him of a series of indescribable scenarios.

Chapter 185 The Reconstruction Work Nearing Completion

"Actually... I'm not your uncle."

"Huh? Really?"

Chongyun seemed quite surprised that Suzumiya Yu was not his uncle.

"But why are you two wearing matching bracelets?" Chongyun pointed to the bracelet on Liang Gongyou's wrist. Shen He had bought it at Mingxingzhai yesterday, and since there was a pair, he gave one of the bracelets to Liang Gongyou.

Shen He had no idea what the bracelets meant, so she acted very casually. Liang Gongyou was also well aware that the other party did not like her, and she was not her husband.

"This is a long story, but you don't need to worry about it. Just know that I'm not your uncle." Liang Gongyou didn't explain much to Chongyun. He glanced at the sky; it was already quite late.

If they don't hurry, they won't be able to reach Liyue Harbor before dark, which will be very troublesome because there are many more monsters at night than during the day.

"I'm leaving your aunt in your care. I have to go back to Liyue Harbor now." Ryouko glanced at the sky, then turned to Chongyun and said.

“I…I understand.” Chongyun nodded. He respected Liang Gongyou very much because he had saved him, and Liang Gongyou was also a strong person. This alone was enough to inspire awe.

Afterwards, Suzumiya Yu said goodbye to Shin-haku and returned to Liyue Harbor ahead of the two.

Shen He originally wanted Liang Gongyou to go to Chongyun's house with her, but she refused. In her own words, Shen He needed to go alone to train to integrate into human society.

He couldn't stay by her side all the time, otherwise he would become an obstacle and make Shen He too dependent on him.

Shen He herself was aware of this. Starting yesterday, she realized that everything she did in human society required Liang Gongyou's permission, otherwise she could not do it.

She knew she couldn't always rely on Ryougu, but without Ryougu, she didn't know which things she should do and which things she shouldn't do.

Over time, she developed the idea of ​​wanting to be with Ryoumi Yu, but Ryoumi Yu wouldn't let her do it.

There was no other way; if Ryoumi Yu insisted on leaving, Shin-haku had no reason to force him to stay.

And so, Yui Suzumiya successfully arrived at Liyue Harbor before nightfall and returned to Keqing's home.

"Where have you been these past two days?!" As soon as she stepped into the courtyard, Ryou Miyako heard a familiar voice.

Turning my head, I saw Yue'er pouting and looking indignant.

Since he hadn't returned for the past two days, Yue'er, who had been assigned to supervise him, was naturally furious. Judging from her appearance, if she were to wield a one-handed sword, she would truly resemble Keqing.

However, Ryou had already thought of this, so she prepared two candied hawthorns before returning, and successfully bribed Yue'er in this way.

After dealing with Yue'er's matter, Liang Gongyou asked her about Keqing. Yue'er replied that Keqing had not returned in the past two days and she did not know where she had gone. She might be working at Yuehai Pavilion or on a mission somewhere.

As the person in charge of managing the land and construction of Liyue, she only goes home once a month, because she needs to travel around most of the time, which is no easier than Ningguang's job.

Moreover, Keqing is probably the most approachable of the Liyue Seven Stars, because she often personally immerses herself in the lives of ordinary people.

It's hard to imagine that a young woman of her high position and power had ever pulled a cart in the deep abyss, helped workers at the South Wharf compact soil, and even worked as a waitress in a small restaurant.

In her spare time, she also collected evidence and reported a ruthless bully who exploited workers. When the bully was arrested, he had no idea why he had been caught. He was escorted to the interrogation room by the Qianyan Army, where he saw a spirited young woman dressed in fine clothes.

Moreover, Keqing is extremely strict with herself; she won't rest until she finishes her work. Even if it's something that requires several days to resolve, she will try her best to shorten the timeframe and complete it in one or two days.

This is Ke Qing, the Yuheng among the Seven Stars, a girl with both strength and ability, who never wants to admit defeat.

It's not just her appearance; her slightly arrogant personality may also be one of the reasons why she is so popular with players.

......

Time flies, and before you know it, Suzumiya Yu has been in Liyue for almost four months.

The reconstruction of Qunyu Pavilion is nearing completion, and test flights are likely to take place in the next few days.

Since the last time, Suzumiya Yu has never seen Shin-haku again. It's not that she can't find her, but that she hasn't made a point of looking for her.

Moreover, he recently heard a rumor: someone saw a white-haired fairy in Liyue Harbor. She had an outstanding temperament, like a celestial being, making people afraid to approach her, yet she was not as cold as she seemed.

That white-haired fairy is probably Shen He. The fact that she doesn't seem cold-hearted shows that Shen He has made great changes. At least for her, integrating into human society is no longer a difficult thing.

Thinking of this, Ryou couldn't help but glance at the bracelet on his hand. If people found out that he and Shin-ho were actually wearing a pair of matching bracelets, it would probably attract a lot of envy and jealousy.

However, he didn't care about other people's opinions. The reconstruction of Qunyu Pavilion was nearing completion, which meant that Ba Che would soon appear.

Because he had heard a lot of things recently, and the one he heard the most about was that someone had discovered a huge sea monster, which looked like a python, in the Yunlai Sea.

According to ancient records, that should be Ba Che, the wife of the vortex demon god Oser, and also the great enemy that Liyue will soon face.

Suzumiya Yuu never went to the sea to look for him, because fighting on water would be a very disadvantageous thing for him.

Breathing techniques require the use of air from the lungs to be performed. If there is no air, the breathing techniques cannot be used. This is reflected in the original Demon Slayer manga.

Although he no longer uses the Breathing Technique, Yuu Suzumiya can still use the Blood Demon Art, but the power of the Blood Demon Art is much weaker than the Breathing Technique, which will greatly reduce his combat strength.

So, to be on the safe side, he chose to wait for Ba Che to appear, rather than acting like a reckless fool and going directly to the sea to search for it.

That's the ocean. So what if Suzumiya Yu found Bazha? After all, the other party is a marine creature. Even if they are not as strong as her, they can quickly escape after realizing something is wrong.

Ba Che could escape, but Liang Gongyou was completely helpless against it because he could not move at sea. Although he could travel by boat, the speed of the boat could not keep up with Ba Che's escape speed.

Chapter 186 Reconstruction of the Jade Pavilion

On this day, just as the sun was rising, Suzumiya Yu came out of the house, intending to go out for a stroll as usual. But just then, a familiar figure appeared at the gate of the courtyard.

That was Ke Qing; she seemed to have been waiting there for quite some time.

"You're finally awake," Ke Qing said, looking at Liang Gongyou.

"Have you been waiting for me there for a long time?" Suzumiya Yu asked knowingly. "Why? Wouldn't it have been better to just wake me up?"

Suzumiya Yu did fall asleep last night, but since he's a demon, he doesn't need to rest, so it doesn't matter if Keqing wakes him up.

“You are my guest. I can’t bring myself to be so impolite as to wake you up,” Ke Qing replied, which made Liang Gongyou somewhat admire her.

Since he was a guest, she wouldn't wake him up before he was fully awake, which was somewhat similar to the story of Cheng Men Li Xue (standing in the snow outside the master's door), but Ke Qing didn't just stand there waiting foolishly in the snow.

"So what? Lady Keqing came back from work just to chat with me?" Ryoumi knew very well that Keqing must have something to talk to him about after returning home from Yuehai Pavilion.

"The reconstruction of Qunyu Pavilion is complete, and we plan to test fly it today. I thought I'd take this opportunity to introduce you to Ningguang and the others," Keqing said. She had wanted to introduce Lianggong You to Ningguang and the others for a long time, but she hadn't had the chance until now.

This time, it just so happens that the reconstruction of the Jade Pavilion has been completed, and all seven stars will be there. Keqing can take this opportunity to introduce Suzumiya Yu to Ningguang and the others.

Kibutsuji Muzan hasn't made any major moves in Liyue lately, which is a relief to Keqing, because Bazha has been increasingly active recently, and has even started attacking fleets at sea.

In this situation, if another Muzan Kibutsuji were to appear, Keqing didn't think they could handle it.

However, that was assuming the immortals didn't intervene. If the immortals were willing to take action, she wouldn't be too worried. Although they were on opposing sides, Keqing still greatly respected the immortals' strength.

“Recently, Ba Che has become increasingly rampant. I suspect that it will soon launch an attack on Liyue Harbor, so I plan to introduce Ningguang and the others to Liyue’s allies before that happens.”

Yui Suzumiya belongs to the Inatsume Shogunate. She came to Liyue in pursuit of Muzan Kibutsuji and formed a cooperative relationship with Keqing, so she can be considered an ally of Liyue.

Moreover, Keqing had witnessed Ryou's strength firsthand, and she knew very well that if Ryou joined their side, their overall strength would increase significantly.

"I see. So, we're going to get to know the other six members of the Seven Stars? I'm getting a little nervous," said Suzumiya Yu.

In the game, only Ningguang (Tianquan) and Keqing (Yuheng) are the Liyue Seven Stars who have become actual playable characters. Tianshu (Tianshu) appeared in Ganyu's legendary quest, but his specific strength is unknown.

As for the other four, they haven't been missed even once. If it weren't mentioned, some people might forget that the Liyue Seven Stars originally consisted of seven people.

So, Suzumiya Yu was very curious. He really wanted to know what kind of people the other four members of the Seven Stars were. Were they just ordinary passersby like Uncle Tian, ​​or were they like Ningguang and Keqing? It was something to look forward to.

......

Soon, under Keqing's guidance, Suzumiya Yu arrived at the newly rebuilt Qunyu Pavilion.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar floating structure in front of her, Suzumiya Yu was somewhat emotional. Something she hadn't witnessed in the game had actually come true in reality.

"Could this young man be the ally that Yuheng Star mentioned?" Suddenly, a woman's voice came from Liang Gongyou's ear. Liang Gongyou turned around and saw that it was Ningguang from Tianquan Star.

Behind her were five figures with different appearances. Apart from Uncle Tian, ​​who could be recognized at a glance, the other four were the other four Seven Stars who had not yet appeared.

Suzumiya Yu observed them carefully and found that none of them had anything remarkable about them, at least compared to Ningguang and Keqing. Two of them didn't even have the Eye of God.

This made Suzumiya Yuu begin to wonder, what exactly are the conditions for becoming one of the Liyue Seven Stars? Can someone without a Vision really qualify? That's quite surprising.

“That’s right, this is the one I mentioned to you before, Suzumiya Yu, a loyal subordinate of Inazuma Raiden. Ningguang, you should know what he did in Inazuma,” Keqing said.

The story of Suzumiya Yuu's deeds with Inazuma had already spread to all the countries of Teyvat, and almost every country's high-ranking officials knew his name, including the Seven Stars of Liyue.

"I see. I never imagined that the great hero Inazuma, who changed the will of the Thunder General and made him abolish the Eye Hunting Order and the National Lockdown Order, would be so young. It's unbelievable."

Ningguang said, touching her chin, and then began to carefully examine Liang Gongyou. But no matter how she looked at him, he was just an extremely ordinary-looking boy, not at all like the rumored one who could change the will of a god.

"I've heard so much about you, Ningguang of Tianquan Star, and all of you from the Seven Stars." Liang Gongyou bowed very politely to Ningguang and the others. After all, they were the Seven Stars of Liyue, and basic respect had to be maintained.

Because Liyue pays the most attention to these details, and it is often from these details that one can see a person's character.

"Today is the day of the test flight after the reconstruction of the Jade Pavilion. Since you are a traveler from Inazuma, then witness with your own eyes the crystallization of the wisdom of Liyue."

After saying that, Ningguang led the group to the Qunyu Pavilion on the Floating Life Stone.

Ryou Suzumiya already knew that if you stood on the Jade Pavilion, you could overlook the entire Liyue, but when he climbed up, he was still captivated by the view before him.

Standing on high ground, one can often see scenery that cannot be seen from below. At this moment, Suzumiya Yu understood the profound meaning of this sentence.

Liyue's scenery is indeed beautiful, far surpassing that of Inazuma and Mondstadt. Moreover, Liyue's ecological environment is far superior to that of Inazuma and Mondstadt.

All of this is probably thanks to the efforts of the Geo Archon and the immortals, as well as the adjustments made by the Seven Stars of Liyue in later generations, which created a kingdom that is now considered perfect.

"I remember that the original Qunyu Pavilion was just a small room, but now it has grown into such a huge building. It's truly amazing."

Ningguang said that although she is now very wealthy, her family was very poor when she was young. Back then, she even had to go barefoot to sell goods all the way from the port to Yaoguang Beach.

Chapter 187 [The Aftermath of the Whirlpool] [The Strike]

The port of Liyue Harbor is quite far from Yaoguang Shoal, and it's unknown what kind of willpower the young Ningguang possessed to push the cargo all the way.

As the Jade Pavilion ascended into the sky, it became visible from almost the entire Liyue Harbor, drawing the attention of many. Had their status allowed, they would likely have wanted to climb up to the Jade Pavilion as well.

"Two years ago, the vortex demon god Oser invaded Liyue Harbor. At that time, I had to make a painful sacrifice and reseal Oser at the bottom of Guyun Pavilion at the cost of the Jade Pavilion."

"It has been two years since the Emperor passed away, but Liyue has not declined because of his departure. Therefore, I hope that everyone can continue to work hard to create a more prosperous city of contracts for the people of Liyue."

Ningguang stood on high and spoke in a passionate tone, which touched the hearts of many people.
