Seeker of Teyvat

Ying's face was cold, and there was murderous intent flashing in her eyes: "It's a lady!"

"Ha! It's you. We met in the bard's city, right? It's not bad. You remember my name well." The lady was very happy about Paimon's exclamation and Ying's hostility. It seems that the highlight moment of stealing the heart of God Barbatos has returned.

"After all, the feeling of watching your friends being robbed of their important things while being unable to do anything about it... is hard to forget!"

The memory was recalled, and she thought of Wendy having her heart ripped out by this woman's claw. Ying's breathing became rapid, and the murderous intent in her eyes almost overflowed, but she suppressed it forcefully, and kept telling herself to calm down.

Tartaglia noticed something was wrong, interrupted the lady and greeted Ying, "Oh, it's Ying and Paimon, I didn't expect to meet you so soon! It's really..."

He looked at the arrogant lady, then at the indifferent Zhongli, and finally looked at Ying, who had anger in his eyes, showing a hint of embarrassment, "How should I put it, it seems that the current atmosphere is a bit embarrassing!"

"Hmph! When I first knew you were the executive officer of the Fools, I shouldn't have trusted you!" Pamon showed a look of contempt.

Ying nodded and looked at Dadalia with the same unkindness: "When Dao Yi reminded me to be careful about you before, I should have believed him."

"How many bad things did Wang Daoyi say about me!" Tartaglia said indignantly, a blush flashing across his pale face, and then looked at Ying with an apologetic smile, "Haha... except for the regretful moment when we fell out at the end, the cooperation before was quite pleasant, wasn't it?"

It was okay if she didn't say it, but she was even more angry when she did. She originally really thought Dadalia would be a friend, but in the end it was still a use.

She was still being used.

Seeing Ying's increasingly unkind expression, Dadalia could only resort to blaming the blame: "Don't look at me like this. In fact, I am also being used. Just like you, Madam and Zhongli, they both deceived me. Got it!"

Dardalia's words shocked Ying and Paimon.

With a hint of disbelief, Ying looked at Zhongli: "Zhongli lied to the young master?"

Before Zhongli and the young master could reply, the lady on the side showed a look of impatience.

"Don't waste time. If you want to chat, wait until you finish the business!"

The lady turned to look at Zhongli; "As agreed, I'm here to get your God's Heart, Morax!"

"Promise? Heart of God?"

"Morax?"

Ying and Paimon didn't react for a moment, their faces were shocked and confused, as if they heard something magical.

Zhongli remained calm: "The contract has been completed, and I should give you the promised things as you requested!"

"Hmph, that's a condescending tone!" The lady snorted disdainfully, then stretched out her hand, "Then, where is the Heart of God!"

"Ahem, it seems I came just in time!" The door of Beiguo Bank was pushed open, and a young man in white walked in with a smile on his face.

For a moment, everyone in the room looked at the young man.

"Daoyi?"

"Wang Daoyi?"

Ying and Paimon made confused sounds.

The lady and Dadalia on the side also looked at Wang Daoyi who walked in with suspicious eyes.

"You are here. According to the completed contract, please give the things to this [Ms.]." Only Zhongli remained calm, everything was as he expected.

Wang Dao nodded, and in the midst of everyone's shocked eyes, he casually took out something that looked like a chess piece from his pocket.

Chapter 102 Ending

"Heart of God?"

Ying had seen the Heart of God. Although it was different from Wendy's, the same mysterious aura made her recognize the identity of the chess piece at a glance.

However, how could the Heart of God be in Wang Daoyi's hand? Moreover, the gesture of taking it out was a little too casual.

Paimon on the side also looked shocked, muttering to himself, making inferences that seemed reasonable but were outrageous: "Wait, wait! Dao Yi has a divine heart, and the divine heart belongs to the God of Rock. So, Wang Daoyi is the god of rocks?”

She glanced at Paimeng speechlessly, then turned to look at Zhongli: "No matter how you think about it, you should also think that Zhongli is the Emperor of the Rock King!"

Giving Ying a "you're so smart" look, Wang Daoyi casually threw the Heart of God to the lady with increasingly eager eyes: "The contract is completed, this is the reward."

The random movement made Paimon exclaim: "No, no, no, although Wang Daoyi has the heart of God and Zhongli is Prince Yan is also shocking, but why do you want to give the heart of God to the fools?"

Ying on the other side had the same doubts as Paimon.

Wang Daoyi said nothing. Although he had guessed the deal between Zhongli and the Ice Queen, Zhongli still had to deal with this matter himself. He was not Zhongli's "God's Mouth".

Zhongli shook his head: "It's not a gift, but a transaction based on the [Contract]. This is between me and the [Ice Queen]."

Ying shook her head. She still couldn't understand: "I can't understand your thoughts."

In her opinion, Zhongli just handed over something that Wendy "desperately" protected, which she couldn't accept.

Paimon also nodded: "Yes, your fake death is really too much! Everyone held a ceremony to welcome you, and suddenly a dragon fell from the sky, and then Liyue Port was in chaos, and it almost caused A big disaster!"

As he said that, Paimon seemed to remember something, and turned to look at Wang Daoyi beside him: "And you, Daoyi, you know everything, but you don't tell us any information, which makes us worry to death!"

Wang Daoyi showed an innocent expression: "Ha, does it still have to do with me? There's nothing we can do about it. I'm just a powerless scholar. The emperor won't let me talk, so there's nothing I can do about it. Moreover, I also warned you, be careful of Dadalia."

Dadalia: "?"

"Haha, gather the undercurrents surging under the water, apply pressure to the limit and then detonate. Isn't this exactly what the Rock God Crown wants to see." The lady put away the Heart of the Rock God and sneered a few times. Answered Paimon's question to Zhongli.

"Huh?" Paimon was puzzled. She didn't understand why she did this.

Ying understood a little bit, and was thinking about something thoughtfully.

For Zhongli, who wanted to use travelers as new record-keepers, he was always particularly tolerant of Paimon and Ying.

"Let me speak for myself."

Zhongli's voice was calm but extremely powerful, attracting the attention of Paimon and Ying.

"As you know, I have spent more than 6,000 years in the world, and it was 3,700 years ago that I established Liyue with the immortals."

"The rock that cannot be broken by the whirlpool will also be worn away by the erosion of time. It's just that I keep convincing myself that the day when the wear and tear will cause cracks has not yet come."

"Until one drizzly day, I was walking in the port and heard a businessman praising his subordinates: [You have completed your duties, now, go and rest.]"

"At that time, I stopped for a long time in the crowd, and kept asking myself: [Has my responsibility... been completed?"

Zhongli's voice seemed a little tired. Perhaps this was the deepest feeling in the ancient demon god's heart.

Paimeng was somewhat moved: "Zhongli..."

Zhongli did not respond to Paimon's call, but continued: "However, when Daoyi and I first discussed whether we should step down from the throne... I found that there were many reasons why I couldn't leave."

"The place that walks with the gods, Liyue, is it ready to enter the next era? I must create an opportunity to observe carefully before making a decision."

"That's why I designed this fake death, involving the immortals, the Seven Stars, the Fools, and you all. And it was because of my instructions that Dao Yi hid this plan from you."

Ying nodded and showed a forced smile: "So, is this a good ending?"

Zhongli smiled for the first time since the beginning: "Very good, this country has reached the time when it can move forward alone."

"That is to say, if all the chaos reaches the point where it cannot be ended, you will personally come forward and use your divine power to finally subdue a crisis for Liyue?" Paimeng thought thoughtfully and found that the seemingly dangerous situation seemed to have been under Zhongli's control. within control.

“Of course, and it’s easy for him.” The lady at the side showed a puzzled look, and then sighed, making it hard to tell whether she was kind or malicious. “Alas, but now it seems... just like a child who has lost his parents will quickly mature, this city called Liyue has also achieved something in the face of [Death of God]...”

Zhongli shook his head: "No, Emperor Yanwang has fallen, and I will not take action. However, when all problems are out of control, Daoyi will use the Heart of God to help Liyue survive this crisis."

Wang Dao nodded and said yes, I am the final guarantee.

"I was unexpectedly satisfied with the final resolution of all the incidents this time!" Zhongli's smile became more and more obvious. "The Seven Stars still insisted on their beliefs in the face of the oppression of the immortals, and the immortals who lived in seclusion in the secluded world... they knew the least information, but they first maintained the greatest degree of restraint, and were willing to cooperate with the Seven Stars in difficult times. In the end, they also tried to understand the hearts of the people."

After saying this, Zhongli looked at the lady who was being nonchalant and said, "This [lady]... as the messenger sent by the God of Ice to fulfill the [contract], at my request, she kept the truth hidden from her colleague, [Young Master], and did not reveal the truth she knew."

Dadalia: "?"

"I myself walked as a mortal [Zhongli], and finally practiced Liyue's tradition as a mortal. Thank you for traveling with me on this journey, traveler."

"All of the above was within my plan. The only thing that was beyond my expectations was... the actions of the Liyue Seven Stars.

My expectations for them were the same as for the immortals, just to protect Liyue, but what they finally delivered was...

Take this opportunity to replace the gods and take advantage of the vacuum period after my death to quickly control all the rights in Liyue. "

Wang Dao nodded. After Ning Guang persuaded the immortal to leave, Wang Dao discovered that Qianyan Army and General Affairs Department spies were acting quickly, openly and secretly, and some old forces that did not obey the Seven Stars were being quickly purged.

Without the emperor on top, the dominance of the Seven Stars has not only not diminished, but has become stronger.

Paimon was puzzled and said, "It doesn't sound like a good thing?!"

Zhongli laughed and said, "Haha... I think this is great. This is also what I was worried about being too early, but at the same time I was vaguely looking forward to it eventually... This is a sincere practice of me as an old god."

Zhongli's smile may have irritated someone. The young master said unhappily, "Hey, what about me? You guys played me around like crazy, don't you want to apologize to me?"

Before Zhongli could reply, the lady gave him a mocking look: "Haha... why not say thank you? Your disruption is actually part of the game. The Rock God should be thanking you for your wonderful performance. If you hadn't created the huge pressure of the battle between the immortals and the demons... then the coal in the hands of the Rock God, which he has been playing with for thousands of years - Liyue, would not have become a shining gem."

The young master looked at the lady in disbelief, "Huh? Why are you standing in the shoes of another country's god and mocking your colleagues? Do you want to fight?"

The lady did not respond to the young master's provocation: "Hehehe... Well, now that we have the Heart of God, there is no point in chatting. Let's go back to the Winter Palace to meet the Queen. The Thousand Rocks Army will probably surround this place soon."

The young master said in disgust: "Oh... okay, but I will go back later. I don't want to ride on the same boat with you."

The young man and the lady left.

Wang Dao looked at Zhongli, guessing that he still had something to say to him, so he handed over to Zhongli: "Since the matter is over, Emperor, I will leave first!"

Zhongli nodded without holding back.

Chapter 103 Sending Immortals and Rebirth

As the conversation between Zhongli and Ying in Beiguo Bank ended, the ceremony of sending immortals was held as scheduled.

There was a lot of noise on the mountain road to Yujingtai. Countless Liyue people were walking with heavy steps and sad faces on their faces, heading towards the place where the immortal ceremony was held.

"Now that the ceremony of sending the immortals is done, it means that those rumors are all confirmed!"

"Prince Yan, he really is...but the problem is that the murderer hasn't been caught yet?"

"I heard a theory, and I think the possibility is very high. I heard that the assassin was a young man from the Fools. I heard that he had a pretty high-ranking young man. He seemed to be called [Young Master]!"

"The Fatui, that's a little suspicious. Everyone knows they are greedy people, they are all crooked..."

"Hush! Keep your voice down, what if we let the fools stare at us? There is no Prince Yan to protect us now!"

……

Wang Daoyi held Xiang Ling's little hand and listened to everyone talking along the way.

Qixing's movements were really fast. Before, there were rumors that Qixing assassinated the emperor, but now the rumors are all the work of fools.

Xiang Ling was also in a depressed mood and held Wang Daoyi's hand firmly, as if this could make her feel more at ease.

Arriving at the Yujing Stage, the atmosphere was already extremely solemn.

The Qianyan regiment soldiers holding Qianyan spears stood around with solemn expressions, but if you look closely, you can see that there are also traces of sadness in their eyes.

Compared with the ordinary people of Liyue, these soldiers who inherited the ancient Qianyan Army were originally supposed to be the personal guards of the emperor in Liyue. But now, their god and their king have fallen.

"Boom!"

The dull bells rang, and in the Yujingtai Square, on the long mountain road, the people of Liyue who came to participate in the ceremony stopped. The originally noisy sounds disappeared, and the atmosphere became more solemn, with a hint of sadness filling the air.

Wang Daoyi held Xiang Ling's hand and stood in a corner of Yujingtai Square. Looking at Zhongli, the guest of the Hall of Rebirth, who was holding a ceremony in the middle of the square, the corners of his eyes could not help but twitch.

Resisting the desire to take out the camera and take a picture, Wang Daoyi tried his best to calm down the desire to complain in his heart, and inadvertently took Xiang Ling's hand and squeezed it.

Feeling the power coming from Wang Daoyi's hand, Xiang Ling looked at Wang Daoyi's expressionless face because he suppressed his emotions.

[Brother Dao Yi is also very sad when Prince Yan leaves! 】

Thinking this, Xiang Ling also grabbed Wang Daoyi's hand tightly, hoping to make Wang Daoyi feel her concern.

"Huh?" Wang Dao felt a little strange when he felt Xiang Ling's strong hand. Why is this little girl so strong? Is it because she is afraid that she will get lost?

Square center.

It was different from Wang Dao who wanted to laugh when he looked at it.

Zhongli looked solemn, as if he didn't remember that this ceremony was for him. He carried out the ceremony in an orderly manner, like a sacrifice from ancient times to the present, and the rituals were completed smoothly under his hands.

Perhaps for Zhongli, this was a farewell to his former identity and the beginning of a new life for him.

……

In sadness and solemnity, the ceremony of sending immortals came to an end, and everyone began to offer incense to the emperor in an orderly manner.
