Their commission was suspicious.

“This…” Chen Luo’s words made so much sense that Gan Yu couldn’t refute them.

"Thank you."

Although Gan Yu was embarrassed, these Rock King Emperor dolls were indeed very beautiful.

"Shen He... why are you in Liyue Harbor? Didn't you say you've been training in the mountains lately?" Gan Yu asked after hesitating for a moment.

"True Lord Liuyun said that Shenhe will eventually return to human society, so he asked me to come to Liyue during this Seven Stars Invitation Ceremony to help her adapt and see if it's suitable for her to return to human society now," Chen Luo explained.

"Then why are you setting up a stall here? Is your Mora not enough? I've saved up some money over the years. If it's not enough, you can tell me," Gan Yu said after hesitating for a moment.

After all, since the other party is Shen He, she can be considered his junior sister. They were both raised by Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun, so there is a natural sense of closeness between them.

Liyue is a society where human relationships are too strong.

"Ah, no, Shen He is quite wealthy and even has pocket money from True Lord Liu Yun Jie Feng. The reason I set up a stall here is mainly because I borrowed some money from Shen He when I ordered a coffin at the Hall of Rebirth, which is why I'm here."

"Of course, there are countless ways to deal with Mora. The more important reason for setting up a stall is to let Shen He learn some ways to handle disputes. After all, Shen He doesn't understand interpersonal relationships very well, so it's necessary to give him some special training."

"There are two relatively effective ways to resolve disputes: one is through eloquence, and the other is through force. Eloquence may not be suitable for Shen He, so we will move towards force."

"So I am teaching Shen He how to subtly display his strength to subdue the opponent without harming them."

"So what was the result?" Gan Yu asked after hearing Chen Luo's words.

"The stone brick next to you is the result." Chen Luo pointed to the floor next to Gan Yu and dispelled the illusion.

"Hmm?" Gan Yu immediately noticed the stone brick that had been crushed to pieces.

“Now Shen He has a certain degree of self-control when dealing with matters and disputes. At least he won’t slam someone’s head on the floor three times. Instead, he will directly use a stone slab to describe the outcome of the other party’s opposition to him.”

In a sense, this is also the fastest way to make the other party submit.

"This... counts as vandalism, right?" Gan Yu couldn't help but ask, looking at the shattered stone slab.

“What a coincidence, Ningguang said the same thing. So I covered it up with an illusion, and I'll put some Mora under this slab as compensation later.”

Chen Luo snapped his fingers again, and in Gan Yu's eyes, the stone slab returned to normal.

"Ningguang?"

“That’s right, Ningguang from Tianquan Star. These chess pieces from Liyue, which are thousands of years old, were commissioned by her to be carved by me,” Chen Luo said, pointing to the small chess pieces in front of him.

Chen Luo is now too lazy to carve by hand. Countless threads begin to move autonomously across the branches and trunks, and soon a chess piece can be carved.

The Herrscher of Domination's thread ability is really useful. At this speed, Chen Luo can create a complete set of Liyue Millennium Forever for him in less than 20 minutes.

Some things made of stones and clay can be created directly through alchemy.

So it's really never a bad thing to learn more. If Chen Luo didn't know carving or alchemy, wouldn't those 200 be a waste?

After all, a set of chess pieces can't be made entirely of wood.

"Is that so? Force is also a way to resolve trouble, but there's one thing to say: if you're living in Liyue Harbor, you can't rely entirely on force to resolve disputes, as that will alienate those around you," Gan Yu, who had been there before, reminded Shen He.

"This should be done step by step. At least we need to let Shen He know how to deal with those troublesome people."

"I'm not good at making friends; one or two close friends are enough." But Shen He suddenly shook his head.

"Well... everyone has their own attitude towards life, so it's not necessarily wrong." Gan Yu couldn't comment on this.

“However, judging from your situation, Shen He, it seems that the red ropes on your Red Rope Soul Binding Technique are a bit short. And your temperament doesn’t seem as fierce as True Lord Liuyun described.” Gan Yu was somewhat puzzled by this.

Although Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun is quite good at chatting, and may talk about things that the person in question doesn't really want to hear, Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun never lies.

"That's the reason," Chen Luo said, raising his wrist.

Then, a red line faintly appeared in the air.

This red thread isn't the kind you get when praying for marriage at the Temple of the Old Man Under the Moon; it's more of a scarlet color...

"This is......"

"It's the murderous aura and malevolent energy emanating from Shen He. Due to the special nature of my body, I can absorb these negative things to enhance my mental strength. Therefore, because of my restraint, Shen He's personality didn't appear so fierce."

"By the way, Gan Yu, are you here to oversee the Seven Stars Summoning Immortals Ceremony?"

Chen Luo found this rather strange, since he hadn't seen Gan Yu during the storyline.

"Ah, that's right. I'll be present at every Seven Stars Summoning Immortals Ceremony, barring any unforeseen circumstances. In fact, most of the important figures will be here to hear the Emperor's divine pronouncements," Gan Yu nodded and said.

After all, reality and games are definitely different, and Gan Yu, as Qi Xing's secretary, is required to attend these important meetings regularly.

Some important regulations even require Gan Yu to personally compile or implement them.

"Oh, I see. So, Gan Yu, have you made your choice? Which one do you want, or do you need me to custom-make one for you?" Chen Luo suddenly asked.

"Can I get a custom-made one? No, but that's fine, this one will do." Gan Yu said, choosing a doll the size of a human head.

Chapter 320 Orchid Leaves? Night Orchid? Armpit Orchid!

"This is a sample of the [Liyue Millennium] that Lady Ningguang asked me to deliver." A woman who looked like a secretary placed a large box heavily in front of Chen Luo.

Seeing how much effort the other person was putting in, it was clear that the box was quite heavy.

The complete version of 【Liyue Millennium】is indeed very complicated to create.

"Oh, thank you for your trouble." Chen Luo nodded.

"Come and pick any doll you like, consider it a gift for you," Chen Luo said, pointing to the Rock King Emperor dolls on the stall.

"This... isn't quite right," the secretary-like person said somewhat embarrassedly.

"What's there to be embarrassed about? It's not like it's anything valuable." Chen Luo waved his hand.

“Well… I’ll gladly accept your offer. Oh, by the way. Lady Ningguang said she wanted you to carve the main body of the chessboard out of agarwood, and the agarwood has already been brought.” The secretary said, pointing to a whole piece of wood on the cart behind her.

“Yes, I can understand. These rich people like to create things with a romantic touch.” Chen Luo nodded.

After all, chess pieces can be replaced when they are gone, but the chessboard will be used for a long time.

After glancing at the huge piece of wood on the cart, Chen Luo gently hooked his finger.

Countless transparent threads, like silver snakes, shot out and bound the heavy piece of agarwood from all directions, then gently pulled it to Chen Luoshen while it was levitating.

The stall that Mona occupied actually had quite a lot of space, and there was room to put things behind her, so Chen Luo simply moved the huge, heavy piece of wood with a strange fragrance behind him.

Chen Luo's unique carrying technique caught the attention of Gan Yu and the secretary.

The cart driver also pushed the cart away after the goods were delivered.

"Miss Gan Yu, it's been a long time." After completing her task, the secretary bowed slightly and said to Gan Yu.

"Ah, you are..." Gan Yu looked at the person with some confusion.

Firstly, because Gu really had no impression of her, and secondly, because Gan Yu knew all three of Ning Guang's secretaries.

"I am Lan Ye, the new intern secretary under Miss, responsible for coordinating the expansion and construction of Qunyu Pavilion. Of course, that's the official title, but for now I can only handle some miscellaneous tasks. I will be able to handle more important matters after I pass my internship," the secretary introduced herself.

"I see." Gan Yu nodded.

Although Gan Yu is a secretary of a 7-star organization, she doesn't serve any one person and therefore cannot manage all of the organization's affairs. She naturally doesn't know much about Ningguang's private domain, such as the Jade Pavilion.

"Is Miss Gan Yu also interested in these Emperor dolls?" the secretary asked with interest.

"Yes, these Emperor figurines are all exquisitely crafted, and they are all engraved with immortal array patterns. Playing with them for a long time is good for your health and can also ward off evil spirits. This is true, not just boasting. The three figurines should be the most effective. If you want to choose, you can pick one of these three."

After confirming that the truck that had been pushed over did indeed have Ningguang's seven-star mark, Gan Yu's tone towards the secretary softened considerably.

"Thank you for the reminder." The secretary nodded and then squatted down to examine the emperor puppets more closely.

"Shen He, how has True Lord Liu Yun been lately? It's been a long time since he's been back..." Gan Yu asked Shen He.

"It's alright, he still enjoys chatting as always." Shen He nodded.

“…” Gan Yu paused for a moment.

That's quite a behavior reminiscent of the True Lord of Clouds and Wind.

The secretary, who was selecting Emperor dolls nearby, looked up and glanced at Shen He.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Who is this Shen He?]: As the name suggests, the other party wants to know Shen He's approximate identity.

Reward: 60 Primogems + 60 Crystals

Difficulty: Two stars

Upon hearing this suggestion, Chen Luo subconsciously glanced at his secretary.

At that moment, the secretary was also looking at Chen Luo. When their eyes met, the secretary looked flustered and then lowered her head shyly.

"...Gan Yu, you and Shen He can be considered fellow disciples in a sense, right? I always feel like these immortals seem to accept disciples based on the attribute of their Eye of God. Gan Yu and Shen He, you two are Ice-attribute Eye of God, so you are disciples of Lord Liu Yun Jie Feng. Yan Fei, the famous lawyer in Liyue Harbor, and Xiang Ling, the head chef of Wanmin Hall, are both Fire-attribute Eye of God, so they have a close relationship with Granny Ping." Chen Luo mentioned casually.

[Ding! Mission complete]

"That's not the case. There are different kinds of immortal magic, and it's not that only those with the Eye of God can practice them. Besides, I only obtained the Eye of God later," Gan Yu said, shaking her head.

A glint of light flashed in the secretary's eyes upon hearing this.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

【Why did you come here?】: As the name suggests, the other party wants to know what you came down the mountain for.

Reward: 70 Primogems

Difficulty: Two stars

Chen Luo paused for a moment after receiving the notification.

"...Accompanying Shen He down the mountain this time is also to help her adapt to human society as soon as possible, since she can't stay in the mountains forever. So, we're also taking this opportunity to use the Seven Stars Summoning Immortals Ritual to verify Shen He's feelings and thoughts recently. Let's see if Shen He can live a normal life in human society now. Speaking of which, Gan Yu, do you have any recommendations for sightseeing or activities?" Chen Luo asked.

[Ding! Mission complete]

"The activities? This Seven Stars Invitation to Immortals Ceremony is not a festival. Although some merchants will take this opportunity to sell some items to passing merchants during these days, there are very few, or almost none, activities."

"If we really want to finish the tour, we'll have to wait until the Lantern Festival to see the most excitement. But it's not like we've come at the wrong time, since we can only see the Emperor on this day each year. At other times, he's probably wandering around the mortal world, inspecting the situation in Liyue," Gan Yu said.

"But Chen Luo, you don't seem to be a local. Why would True Lord Liuyun entrust this matter to you?" Gan Yu was still quite curious about this matter.

“I’m not a local, and I only arrived in Liyue today.” Chen Luo nodded.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

【Who are you?】: As the name suggests, the other party wants to know who you are.

Reward: 60 Primogems + 60 Crystals

Difficulty: Two stars

"...It's not something worth hiding. I'm a traveler, and also a puppeteer who's traveling around studying and trying to improve my puppetry skills. Of course, I'm also a bar owner, and that's how I met Shen He at the bar," said Teacher Chen Luo.

"A bar?" Gan Yu looked at Chen Luo and Shen He with some suspicion.

Gan Yu really didn't think Shen He was the kind of person who would go to a bar. Besides, this was his first time coming down the mountain, so how could he have gone to a bar before?

“My bar is similar to a dust pot, something portable. So you could potentially see my bar from anywhere,” Chen Luo explained.

"A portable travel device similar to the Dust Song Pot? I see." Gan Yu nodded thoughtfully.

Gan Yu also knew about the Dust Song Pot.

Some immortals use this kind of thing when they travel.

The main body looks like a kettle-sized object, but inside it is a whole different world, which can be regarded as a portable large villa.

However, despite its appealing appearance, this product is not widely used. This is partly because some of the materials are almost extinct and the production process is very expensive, and partly because it is not as convenient as one might imagine.

After all, if you want to build furniture or houses in your own Dust Song Pot, it's a troublesome thing to think about.

"I also visited Mondstadt a while ago, but there was a storm raging there at the time. I don't know if it was a coincidence or what, but I met a pretty good bard and ended up joining the team that was peacefully dealing with the Stormterror, and I even got the title of Honorary Knight." Chen Luo continued, as if he were recounting his entire journey in this world.

[Ding! Mission complete]

"The storm in Mondstadt? It is indeed a crisis that should not be underestimated."

"Speaking of which, Chen Luo, your talent for mechanical arts is indeed exceptional. You just said that you learned all the mechanical arts written in the book by True Monarch Liuyun in just three days? Is mechanical arts a type of puppetry?"

Now that we've come this far, Gan Yu looked at the doll she had chosen in her hand and couldn't help but sigh.

“That depends on how you define puppetry. Puppetry can actually incorporate many things. And many puppets also require mechanisms to activate. Furthermore, the inscriptions that can be applied to mechanical arts can also be used on puppets,” Chen Luo said, picking up an Emperor puppet from the stall.

"But that's precisely why the puppet with the immortal inscriptions is only selling for 5000 Mora, which is indeed a bit cheap. Besides, I can't even tell what the effects of some of the inscriptions are," Gan Yu said, looking at the inscriptions on the Emperor puppet.

“Of course, after all, an excellent puppeteer needs to be open to all kinds of knowledge and then make improvements and modifications. Some of the inscriptions are the product of combining immortal array patterns with knowledge from other worlds,” Chen Luo said.
