Ganyu waved her hand and said, "No, no, I came here this time because I received... um, a mission. I want to ask Mr. Adventer if he is interested in succeeding the Seven Stars."

"Oh?"

Ganyu pointed her finger and said, "You are the one who came after the Traveler. This means a change, but it may also be an opportunity. So... my purpose of coming here is not just to welcome the messenger, but also to confirm your identity."

Xiajia opened his mouth.

Damn, that's a lot of information.

"How do you define an adventer? If they are traveling through the world, it shouldn't just be me."

"This is still a subtle difference. For example, you can bring many stories about the world that we don't know about..."

Ah, I copied all this...

Xia Jia scratched his face in embarrassment, but he understood what Ganyu meant.

He should be an orthodox Chinese time traveler.

There is a saying that those comics and creations are all leaked high-dimensional information, and the Earth integrates all this information, so it should be a very special dimension.

Although Xia Jia doesn't know whether he is in the second dimension, whether he can be considered a two-dimensional life, or whether the Earth is a higher-dimensional existence, Xia Jia, who was born on Earth, is indeed different from other beings.

"Well, what's the benefit of becoming a seven-star? Besides, I probably won't have much time to work."

It's impossible to work. The partners in the other world speak nicely and the girls are very enthusiastic. I like it there very much.

Gan Yu smiled and said:

"It's not a big deal. The other seven stars are all very old. If you like, I can give you the position of Tianxuan Star and be responsible for foreign world diplomacy."

"If necessary, Sakura Province can also be considered as a diplomatic link."

Xia Jia took a breath and said, "In charge of diplomacy... So, if I agree to the invitation, I can be directly responsible for the diplomatic affairs this time, and even decide on the king's election?"

"Yes." Gan Yu nodded: "Just like the exchanges and trade with other alien worlds, you can also be responsible for it. However, the financial aspect needs to be reported to Tianquan Star for taxes."

"Ah, is this so good?"

Seeing Xia Jia's suspicious look, Gan Yu looked around and whispered:

"This is the oracle of the Emperor. The appearance of the Adventer is both a change and a disaster. It symbolizes that the world is about to fall into the end, but also means a new life. And to catch you who is at the center of the storm is our common goal..."

When Ganyu said this, her nose twitched. Because she was too close, her eyes accidentally fell on the cabbage in Xia Jia's arms.

Wanting to understand what the Emperor meant, Xia Jia also saw Gan Yu's wide eyes:

"Well, if you want to eat, I can give it to you."

As he said that, he tore off another piece and put it into Ganyu's little mouth.

Baji, Baji, Ganyu felt the exploding taste buds on her tongue while shedding tears:

"Yes, I will gain weight!"

Chapter 686 Seven Star Conference

On the deck, Xia Jia watched Ganyu leave with the cabbage in her mouth.

Betty looked up, stared at Xia Jia with her beautiful eyes for two seconds and asked:

"Aren't you going to build sand sculptures?"

"go."

"If you're busy, it doesn't matter if you wait a few days."

Seeing Betty's strange expression, Xia tightened her little hand and explained:

"No one can interfere with my schedule, not to mention that they are begging me now."

Ganyu's sudden invitation did disrupt Xia Jia's original plan, but that didn't mean he had to carry it out.

The location of the Seven Stars is no more tempting to Shaga than the welfare collection on the beach.

The responsibilities of a civil servant are obviously greater than the benefits they receive. As a member of the Great Rock Empire, Xia Jia can serve the country, but he also wants freedom.

"Besides, entertaining foreign friends is also part of my job duties. It can be considered as a way to familiarize myself with the job in advance."

"Humph, taking advantage of the situation."

……

Five hours later, the Beidou broke through the waves and arrived at Liyue Harbor.

After Ganyu arranged for everyone to settle in the embassy, ​​he left in a hurry. As Xia Jia had expected, he needed to temporarily entertain the guests he brought.

Naturally, Xia Jia and his group took advantage of the temporary blockade of the port to enjoy a beach party that belonged only to them.

at the same time……

Inside Yuehaiting, there is a room that belongs only to the Seven Stars.

Six high-ranking people were seated around the round table with the Big Dipper carved on it. The projection in the center of the table played Xia Jia's personal information.

Their faces are kind, yet reveal a solemn and domineering aura.

"I think everyone should have heard of Senior Ganyu's suggestion."

The old lady who lived on Tianquan Star leaned back in her chair, turning the walnuts in her hand slightly, and started today's topic with a simple sentence.

The middle-aged man at Tianshu Star, wearing beach pants and flip-flops, crossed his legs and laughed:

"I have no objection. It's not my responsibility anyway. If Tianxuanxing has no objection, then I have no objection too."

"What do you care about besides walking your bird and listening to music every day?" Yao Guangxing squinted with his eyes slightly lowered, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes could not hide his charm.

It is certain that she must have been a great beauty when she was young.

"Hey, I'm just observing people's livelihood, you know nothing!" Tianshu grinned: "Besides, I'm still young, even if I want to retire, it's not my turn."

"Okay. Let's get down to business." Kaiyangxing tapped the table, his hunched body imposing without even getting angry.

"The focus of this matter should still be on Tianxuan. What is your opinion?" Yuhengxing said concisely.

Everyone turned their attention to Tianxuanxing who was quietly sipping tea. The old man grinned and sighed deeply:

"Oh. I'm too old to do anything. Well, to be honest, it's not a bad idea to give young people more opportunities, but I'm afraid of messing things up."

At the location of Tianji Star, there sat a beautiful girl with long black hair like a waterfall. She wore a pair of dark red glasses and had the quiet and elegant temperament of a literary girl.

This posture seems out of place among the group of elderly people.

"I think it's good to give young people more opportunities. In the current system, seniority is a toxic thing. The only way to work that is in the best interests of Oiwa is to promote the capable and demote the mediocre."

Indeed, no one refuted Tianjixing's words. It was not because she was young, but because she was a disciple of the immortal sect and a member of the extraordinary people.

"What's more... that child was recommended by Senior Ganyu..."

The age of the Seven Stars' successors has been getting older and older since the first few decades, probably because they adhere to the principle of "no talk, no action". Only after going through all the levels and struggling in the system for most of their lives can they have the opportunity to participate in the election.

But the situation this time was a bit special. Ganyu would use the Emperor's prophecy to give them advice, which made them feel a bit incredible.

Tianshuxing took off his sunglasses and raised his eyebrows: "The Emperor has been dead for thousands of years. If the immortal was not still alive, I would even want to refute: "First, fight 50 to prove your strength."

"Yeah. You are indeed a young man. It's a good idea to prove your strength." Tianquan nodded, seemingly unaware of Tianshu's joke.

Tianxuan agreed, "Why not let him preside over this diplomatic meeting?"

Yu Heng asked: "What about the main idea? We can't just let the kid do whatever he wants without a clear definition."

Tianxuan said: "The first thing is to ensure the authority of the court. If we have the ability, we can further weaken the other party and even make them a subordinate."

Tianjixing pushed his glasses up: "That's a different world. We can't treat it the same way as we treat other countries."

Tian Quan interrupted: "The resources over there are all new substances to us. You should know what adding a few more elements to the periodic table means."

Kaiyang reminded: "Let's make friends with them first. I heard that some of their top leaders are very interested in our culture. Why not try cultural invasion..."

It felt like the next moment there would be a long debate, so Tianshuxing coughed and interrupted the debate:

"For a situation like yours, you want to be conservative, you want to have interests, and you have to worry about invasion. This is not something you can come up with in a short time."

"I heard that the Sakura Province is already very unstable, with evil spirits running rampant. In my opinion, as long as the people in Liyue are kept safe, we can just use the Sakura Province as a pilot. Anyway, it was originally Inazuma's territory, so I think Yuheng has no objection to this."

Everyone was stunned for a moment.

Sakura Province is too special. Because it is not within the protection range of the national barrier, it has always been causing trouble, and now even an alien world has been created.

They don't know what's in the other world. If there's a counter-invasion, there will be more trouble. It's better to go all out and evaluate Sakura Province based on the worst-case scenario. It is likely that it will become a "different world" buffer zone like the [concession] in the near future.

It just so happens that Sakura Province is surrounded by the sea, with inconvenient transportation, and it is not the original territory of Oiwa. To put it bluntly, it may even have been a colony in the beginning. All conditions are met to serve as a buffer zone for disasters.

Once you realize this...

"Since we have decided to test the young people's abilities, why not just let them go completely? We just need to maintain the most basic bottom line. Let the young people handle the rest."

Tianshu's intention was also very simple. Since all the troubles were in Ying Province, Ying Province should just solve them by itself. It just so happened that they also wanted to hone the young people and see if they had the ability to take over.

Once you gain this understanding, gains and losses are no longer so important.

Regardless of failure or not, they can get a "successor" with certain diplomatic experience, and if they are lucky, they can get a lot of benefits for free.

then……

"Tianquan seconded the motion."

"Yuheng seconded the motion."

“Tianshu seconded the motion…”

"Seconded……"

After seven people nodded at the same time...

"Since no one objects, it is decided. A series of diplomatic matters concerning the other world will be temporarily carried out by the trusted Tianxuanxing——Xia Jia (tentative)."

Chapter 687: Jade Pavilion? Sky Island!

Seven days later.

After Xia Jia and his friends had a crazy week of fun in Liyue Harbor, they received a message from Ganyu again.

Ganyu: "All drafts have been passed. It has been decided that you will be fully responsible for diplomatic activities related to the other world."

"I can decide everything?" Xia Jia was still a little surprised.

Ganyu: "Yes. Any decision of yours that has nothing to do with Liyue does not need to be approved by the Seven Stars."

"Does this Liyue mean that it does not include Sakura Province?"

Ganyu: "Yes. You can mobilize all matters within the jurisdiction of the Sakura Province, including the military, technology, and talents. Even in Liyue, as long as you can convince the companies yourself, most of the goods can be exported, and these do not require approval."

Xia Jia: "I'm curious, what are the things that need to be approved?"

Ganyu: "Special ores and metals, national defense secrets, thermal weapons, etc... science and technology. Oh, and immortal arts... Well, for example, serious radio gymnastics are not allowed to be spread out casually."

Xia Jia: "...There are some indecent ones? Wait, are you saying that radio gymnastics is a magic technique?"

Ganyu: "Yes. For building the foundation."

Xia Jia: "Then why didn't I become an immortal?"

Ganyu: "Did you really jump over it?"

Xia Jia: "Isn't it nice to shake this thing? ...Okay."

Ganyu: "Okay, I'll take you to the ceremony to take over Tianxuanxing (tentative name) tomorrow. You should also prepare how to deal with the issue of Lugnica's king selection."

Ah this..., then of course it's Emilia who supports me unconditionally?

No, no, that's too unfair. As a diplomat, I can't be partial.

Xia Jia stared at the information on the screen and replied slowly:

"understood."

After asking Yui to turn off the projection, Xia Jia lay on the bed and thought for a moment. He couldn't figure it out for a moment, but he decided to take action first.

The process of participating in the succession and handling the king selection issue tomorrow was announced, which caused a small commotion.

Rimuru and Sora breathed a sigh of relief.

"To be honest, if we were to face Qixing right away, we would be very nervous. If it was Xia Jia, it would be easier for us to speak."
