Their commission was suspicious.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Ding! You have a new request!]

As soon as Chen Luo finished speaking, he received several tasks.

The rewards for these tasks may vary, but the requirements are the same.

That is to have Chen Luo explain the course of events and its outcome to every immortal he can find.

The highest among them is Ningguang.

【Go, Chen Luo!】: Tell all the immortals who can see the Seven Stars Invitation Ceremony in a fair and impartial manner what happened above.

Rewards: 100 Primogems (100 Primogems per Immortal, maximum 400 Primogems) + random reward + +10 to Ningguang's affinity.

Difficulty: Two stars

To be honest, Chen Luo found that it was really hard to gain Ningguang's favorability.

Last time it was 10, and this time it's 10 too. Look at Raven, it sends out 20 or 30 all the time...

Because Chen Luo can save a lot of trouble, it's not just Ningguang who posts commissions; others have also posted some.

However, the commissions posted by others were all priced, with the highest being no more than 200, and all of them together only amounted to 410 Originium.

This is probably mainly because Ningguang was the unlucky one, since it was Ningguang who presided over the Seven Stars Invitation Ceremony when Lord Rock passed away.

Therefore, Ningguang is currently the one who is having the biggest headache.

"Sure, no problem, but I can't work for free, can I?" Chen Luo agreed immediately after seeing the requests.

If Chen Luo could notify the four immortals, he could directly earn 800 primal stones.

"Hmm, do you want compensation? Of course, or rather, we were planning to pay compensation anyway." Ningguang smiled after hearing Chen Luo's words.

As a businesswoman, Ningguang always believed that there was nothing Mora couldn't buy. Since the other party was willing to ask, it meant that the matter could be easily resolved.

"I want 62,200 Mora, no bargaining," Chen Luo said decisively.

"Huh? What did you say?" Ningguang was stunned for a moment, and the others were also stunned for a moment.

How many?

“I already said, it’s 62,200 Mora,” Chen Luo said again.

"..." Although, Ningguang still felt somewhat incredulous.

Is that really all?

To be honest, everyone here is either a member of the Liyue Seven Stars or an important figure in Liyue Harbor. Each of you has hundreds of thousands of Mora at your disposal.

Perhaps the time it takes to talk to Chen Luo right now is enough for him to earn tens or even hundreds of thousands of Mora.

And you want 62,200 Mora, and even the exact amount?

"Wait, I clearly gave you a fine of 31,100 Mora, why did you ask for 62,200 Mora?" Keqing, who was good at math, stepped forward and pointed at Chen Luo, asking.

The 21,100 mora fine is still with Keqing; it hasn't been handed over to the relevant authorities yet.

If you say that 31,100 Mora and 62,200 Mora are unrelated, who would believe you?

"Hmm, lost wages compensation," Chen Luo said after a moment's thought.

"To be honest, because of your relentless pursuit, I haven't been able to set up my stall for at least an hour and a half... Cough cough, Miss Keqing, you may have misunderstood. The 62,200 Mora I want has absolutely nothing to do with the fine you just imposed on me." Chen Luo was about to argue with Keqing, but then immediately changed his mind.

What are you talking about? What 31,100 Mora? I don't know that.

"Fine, it's just 31,100 Mora, I'll pay it all!" Ke Qing glared at Chen Luo fiercely before throwing the fine back at him.

"There are still 31,100 Mora left," Chen Luo reminded him.

"I didn't bring any change, and I haven't finished the mission yet. I'll give you the rest later," Ke Qing said with a cold snort.

31,100 Mora? Who are you trying to insult?

"Sigh, 31,100 Mora is just small change? Everyone here is so rich, and I'm the only poor one. Alright, I'll take this commission. Wait for my good news, or maybe bad news. After all, immortals aren't exactly known for their gentle temperaments," Chen Luo said.

"Sir, during the search just now, we spotted a blond stranger who was sneaking around trying to escape and broke through the encirclement. The blond stranger was also carrying a white, flying object with him." A man who appeared to be the leader of the Thousand Rock Army suddenly approached and reported to Ningguang.

“Hmm, a blond stranger and a flying white creature… Chen Luo,” Ningguang suddenly spoke.

"If I remember correctly, you should know that blond stranger, right? Back at Yujingtai, he seemed to have called out your name," Ningguang asked Chen Luo, squinting her eyes.

"Uh, sir, should we call back the brothers we sent to chase after them?" The leader of the Thousand Rock Army asked Chen Luo after glancing at him.

"That depends on Chen Luo's answer, right? Mr. Chen Luo." Ningguang looked at Chen Luo.

"Ah, well, who knows? Did anyone call my name when we met?" Chen Luo asked Ningguang with a blank look.

“I see… We don’t need to call back the people we sent. Let’s just issue an arrest warrant according to the normal procedure.” Seeing Chen Luo’s appearance, Ningguang thought for a moment and then said to the leader of the Thousand Rock Army.

After all, the other party ran away. Even if they had nothing to do with this matter, they must have had ulterior motives. Otherwise, why would they run away?

Is it paranoia?

Ningguang realized that Chen Luo was pretending to be stupid, as if he didn't want to get involved with the other party. In that case, let's proceed according to the normal procedure.

After all, the other party had just promised to inform the other immortals on behalf of the Seven Stars of Liyue, so there was no need to make things difficult for them on this matter.

Furthermore, Ningguang also planned to test Chen Luo and see his reaction after issuing an arrest warrant for him.

However, Chen Luo's reaction disappointed Ning Guang, because Chen Luo didn't react much, as if he wasn't surprised or worried about it.

Since both sides definitely know each other, does that mean Chen Luo has confidence in the other party's strength?

Ningguang guessed.

Chapter 326 The Compass for Avoiding Misfortune and the Compass for Finding Treasure?

"Wow, is this Mona's house?" Chen Luo exclaimed, looking at the slightly old house in front of him.

After accepting the mission, Chen Luo did not seek out any immortals, nor did he use the teleportation anchor point to instantly teleport back to Mount Aozang. Instead, he went to Mona's house first.

Chen Luo has a habit that's hard to say whether it's good or bad: he likes to randomly insert teleportation anchor points.

Perhaps because the game only allowed one traditional anchor point in the past, or perhaps because his own teleportation anchor point was the strongest escape item, Chen Luo would basically set up an anchor point whenever he arrived at a memorable place.

If Chen Luo remembered correctly, he had at least 1000 raw stones at the teleportation anchor point.

Of course, the number is definitely not 100. The reason there are so many is mainly because there are various modified versions of teleportation anchors.

Although there aren't 100, there are at least 60.

In Teyvat, teleportation points include, but are not limited to, the top of the Statue of Anemo, Mondstadt Cathedral, Starfall Cliff, the Knights of Favonius, Aunt Lisa's house, Windrise, Mt. Aozang (in front of the Cloud-Borrowing Wind Master's house), Jade Tower, and the Geo Statue of the Seven...

And we just arrived at Mona's house.

Although Chen Luo did not give prior notice, and Mona was not informed of her home address, Chen Luo followed Mona's fate and arrived here.

"It's probably just a rented place, right? After all, Mona won't be staying in Liyue for long," the Herrscher of Knowledge said nonchalantly.

"But I'm quite relieved that Mona can afford to rent a place."

Chen Luo himself didn't really care that Mona was selling his things to others. After all, the other party paid for the raw stones and he gave them the items, so it was a fair trade.

Moreover, regulars at the bar are more or less familiar with the general operating principles of Chen Luo's bar.

However, Chen Luo felt that he did need to impose some restrictions on these people.

Chen Luo wasn't upset that they sold their own items for money; he was upset that they didn't tell him about some of their requests.

However, if Chen Luo were to accept Mora, he was genuinely worried that Mona and Wendy wouldn't be able to afford alcohol or food.

Or... would you like something else?

I wonder if Wendy will be able to summon the power of the wind god again.

This thing should fetch a good price.

Moreover, these wind god powers can be stored up and used to create counterfeit god hearts to sell to the Fools.

We might even be able to make some raw stones from him.

As for the others, let them come as they please; Chen Luo doesn't need their money anyway.

Just as Chen Luo was about to knock on the door, it suddenly opened, and Mona came out.

"You've finally arrived. Come in." Mona opened the door and didn't seem surprised to see Chen Luo and the others.

"Astrology?" Chen Luo was slightly surprised.

Of the four people on Chen Luo's side, three were flying, while Shen He was grounded. However, Shen He was also highly skilled and moved with agility.

So it's impossible that Mona came out after hearing the noise.

Therefore, the only option left is water divination.

To be fair, Mona's water magic is somewhat effective.

"I suddenly want to learn astrology too..." Chen Luo muttered, looking at Mona who seemed to have a precognitive ability.

"Alright, alright, stop with the Versailles nonsense. If I'm not mistaken, you definitely possess occult knowledge or abilities that are at least on par with my astrological skills in terms of weight and level. Otherwise, you wouldn't have caught me when I was setting up my stall, and I certainly wouldn't have only vaguely sensed you when you were 100 meters away from my house." Mona's voice was filled with deep hatred for Chen Luo, this Versailles-like person.

And envy and jealousy.

If Mona's guess is correct, Chen Luo's ability is definitely at a very high level. But Chen Luo has only possessed this ability for a very short time.

So even after Mona gave Chen Luo special attention, she only sensed him when he got within 20 meters.

As for the 100 meters mentioned, that was obviously a lie to Chen Luo, the purpose of which was to maintain the pride of an astrologer.

Who would have thought that Mona, who now seems to have been waiting calmly for a long time, actually just rushed to the door?

"But having more skills is never a bad thing, is it?" Chen Luo said with a shrug.

"Do you think water divination is something that can be learned so easily? It not only requires talent, but also the accumulation of knowledge. The number of books that need to be read is outrageous," Mona said with a cold snort.

"Hmm, you mean I need to read books? A lot of books?" Chen Luo asked uncertainly.

“Of course, you’re scared, aren’t you?” Mona said, hands on her hips.

"Well, you might not believe it, but reading is my forte," Chen Luo said after a moment's thought.

You probably don't believe me, but I can read through the books you read in a year in just one minute.

Although you might have a headache for about half an hour afterwards.

After all, Chen Luo's furniture expertise, while having no cooldown period, is limited by his limited intelligence.

"Alright, alright, stop bragging. Here, this is for you." Clearly, Mona didn't believe Chen Luo's words, but she pulled out a compass from somewhere and gave it to Chen Luo.

Seeing the compass being thrown at him, Chen Luo flicked his finger, and a large hand made of silk thread caught the compass steadily and then presented it to Chen Luo.

"What is this?" Chen Luo looked at the object in his hand with some curiosity.

"The Compass of Avoiding Misfortune, that's how it should be. I've been eating your free meals for so long while I was making this, so naturally I have to give you something in return. It took me seven or eight days of my spare time to make this," Mona said proudly.

“Actually, no need. As long as you can fulfill your wish at the bar, that’s enough. I don’t need anything extra. Of course, if you insist on giving it to me, I won’t refuse.” Chen Luo said, showing no intention of returning the compass to Mona.

Just as Chen Luo said, he never felt that he owed them anything, nor did he feel that they owed him anything, but if the other party wanted to give him some extra rewards, Chen Luo would not mind.

Moreover, in most cases, Chen Luo intends to get something in return from the other party. After all, if he gives someone the idea that their wish is cheap, then the amount of raw stones they use when issuing the request may be reduced to a certain extent.

But it can't be too much, or even too important to them, because that might affect their ability to accept subsequent commissions.

Fortunately, none of the people Chen Luo encountered were the kind of people who took it for granted that Chen Luo would give them things or help them for free.

Or, to put it another way, if Chen Luo helps such a person once and then completes their request, he will most likely kick them out.

Although Chen Luo would not refuse to accept commissions to earn primal stones, he could choose which commissions to complete during this time period.

After all, time is limited, but commissions are unlimited, and Chen Luo has the initiative to decide whose commission to accept.

So if they were to give something other than money, Chen Luo really wouldn't mind.

"After all that talk, you still accepted it, didn't you? Alright, come in. What are you doing standing outside like this?" Mona didn't mind Chen Luo's lack of politeness and invited everyone into her home.

In fact, if someone gives something to another person and then gets angry because the other person wasn't polite, it means that the other person didn't give it sincerely and was hoping to get it back. But Mona is clearly not that kind of person.

Of course, the main reason is that Mona herself can't use this compass.

As for why it can't be used...
