"Traveler, Tevarin has become the Guardian of the Four Winds again today. Let's go have another meal!"

"Traveler, we haven't done anything today, let's find a restaurant to celebrate today's leisure!"

Although Ying had been working diligently to earn money, and received a considerable amount of travel expenses from Qintun after becoming an honorary knight, under Paimon's deception, the two rushed from Mondstadt to Liyue, and somehow spent all their money along the way, becoming the poor people they were at the beginning.

It's already this late, and you're still thinking about eating? I'll eat you first!

I have been sleeping outdoors every day and I haven’t taken a shower for two days!

Yingmei was thinking whether to braise Paimon or boil it, but the little guy pulled her arm again and said, "Look, traveler, everyone seems to be heading in this direction. Is there any treasure over there?"

Paimon stomped his feet in the air, his little eyes flashing with the golden light of Mora.

Ying knew that this guy was unreliable. She looked around and found that the crowd was indeed moving towards the port.

"The port? The time for the Immortal Ceremony has not yet arrived, right? And the location shouldn't be at the port." Yingmei was secretly surprised.

Paimon pulled her sleeve and said, "Come on, let's go over there, Traveler. Maybe Liyue has sent out a Mora bar!"

"We came to Liyue to find the Geo King. We should first get information related to him."

"But the ceremony of inviting the gods is still several days away. Maybe there are clues about gods from other countries at the port."

"how is this possible?"

Ying chuckled and shook her head. Paimon was always daydreaming, but she was right. It would take some time before the ceremony to invite the immortals, so there was no need to be so anxious.

Following the crowd to the dock, I thought it would be very crowded, but the Qianyan Army seemed to have anticipated this situation and sent people in advance to maintain order on the scene.

"Don't cut in line, I'm talking to you!"

"Stand still!"

"Pachuli♂go!"

Excluding the last sentence, Ying was very surprised at the actions of the Thousand Rocks Army. The Knights of Favonius in Mondstadt... at least the current Knights could never do this. Ying still remembers those guys who patrolled empty-handed every day and hid in the shade of the trees to cool off.

Moreover, the people of Liyue also cooperated with the official actions, which enabled order to be quickly stabilized.

"Is this Liyue? It is indeed very different from Mondstadt."

While thinking in his heart, Ying stood on the dock and looked towards the coastline. He saw two huge ships coming towards him surrounded by their companion ships, which immediately caused a commotion.

"This is the Death Star of the Southern Cross Fleet! Hey, what ship is next to the Death Star?"

"It's Inazuma's Mingzunhao. I saw it before when I went to Inazuma! Yes, look, there's also the flag of Thunder Triple Tomoe on the ship!"

"But hasn't Inazuma already closed the country? Anyone who approaches the sea near Inazuma will be attacked by thunderstorms."

"You are too behind the times. I heard from my uncle's friend's classmates that Inazuma's isolation order and eye hunting order have been lifted. It was our Liyue people who facilitated this. He challenged General Lei Dian and became her husband. He ended the war single-handedly against thousands of troops. Now he is on the Ming Zun Hao."

"You are just talking nonsense. General Lei Dian's reputation is no less than that of Lord Yan. How dare a mortal challenge her?"

On long voyages, large ships are faster than small ships, so unless the informant is someone who specifically asked the holder of the Eye of the Wind God to speed back, most people are still unaware of Inazuma's situation.

Therefore, even if someone told inside information, everyone would find it outrageous.

Yingmei listened to everyone discussing the situation of Inazuma, and from the messy information she gained some understanding of this distant country.

She nodded in agreement, "General Raiden is a god, and he ended the war after challenging her... This news is untrue."

Paimon was flying around, scratching his head and saying, "I think what he said makes sense. Maybe he is really the king's husband. If General Raiden lends him weapons, won't the war end?"

Yingmei shook her head slightly. She would never believe Paimon’s nonsense.

The first to get off the ship were the Death Star's captain, Beidou, and a black-haired young man. The two were chatting happily and only stopped talking when they got off the ship. They were followed by many officials wearing Inazuma costumes.

The purple cat-headed girl who had been waiting at the dock came forward politely, took the document handed over by Xie Yan after some greetings, and invited him to Yujingtai to welcome him under the gaze of everyone.

The onlookers who were closer heard the conversation, and the whispers immediately caused a wave of excitement behind them.

"Inazuma's isolation order and eye hunting order have been lifted! And this hero who challenged the gods and died is actually from Liyue!"

"But he is now the Lord of Kande and a follower of the Thunder God."

"Didn't you hear? He was brought to Inazuma by his parents when he was a child. Something must have happened at home, otherwise who would be willing to leave their hometown!"

"That's right. It wasn't his wish to leave his hometown. How can we blame him? Besides, even though he has achieved such great success, he is still proud of being a Liyue person. Should we stop him from returning to his roots?"

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Xie Yan and Keqing went to Yujingtai together. The Inazuma officials and accompanying merchants behind them were received by special personnel.

His eyes widened slightly, and the silly expression on his face became more obvious. Paimon actually guessed it right?

However, seeing Xie Yan leaving towards Yujingtai with countless people looking at him with awe and admiration, Yingmei in the crowd suddenly had an idea.

He can take his place!

Ahem, that's not right. Ying was thinking that the other party had such a close relationship with General Raiden, so maybe she didn't have to go to Inazuma and could get the answer she wanted from him.

.....

And the other side.

Yujingtai.

Under the gazes of countless people, either in awe or curiosity, Xie Yan and Keqing finally arrived at their destination.

However, they didn't discuss business first, but had a meal first.

Although this drinking culture has some drawbacks, it is indeed the best way to bring people closer together.

Looking at the purple-haired cat-head girl in front of him, who looked full of doubt but felt it was inappropriate to speak at this time, Xie Yan felt that he had underestimated Aqing's cuteness.

“Welcome back to Liyue.” Keqing offered a glass of wine first.

When she toasted, she secretly glanced at Xie Yan and felt that he had an extraordinary bearing and was calm in the face of emergencies, just like the master Yue Zhiyuan. She couldn't help but nodded secretly.

After learning about Xie Yan's news from Ningguang's secretary last night, she initially thought that Ningguang was teasing her, so she went to Qun Yu Pavilion in person to ask for an explanation. Unexpectedly, Ningguang swore that the news was correct.

This couldn't help but surprise Keqing.

Who is General Thunder? He is the god who controls the birth and death of thunder. His martial power is not necessarily inferior to that of the Emperor, and he has absolute authority in Inazuma.

Keqing only raised some questions about the Emperor's guidance. Even though the Emperor himself didn't care, it still attracted opposition from countless people, who believed that Keqing was disrespectful to the gods and heretic.

And in a country like Inazuma where the gods have the final say, how could someone challenge General Raiden?

Although Keqing believes that the decisions of gods are not always correct due to her own beliefs, she is actually an ultimate fan of the Emperor. It is even more difficult for her to imagine that anyone would challenge the gods than it is for Ningguang.

But if you think about it carefully, Xie Yan carried the expectations of the people of Inazuma, boldly put forward his opinions to the gods, and successfully brought happiness to Inazuma. Isn't this her ideal self?

Even the elements match!

Therefore, she really had a lot of things to ask Xie Yan and discuss ideals with him, and she even forgot about the tests that Ningguang asked her to do.

Xie Yan actually had a lot to talk about with his wife Keqing, but now he still had a diplomatic mission to carry out, and it would not be appropriate to talk about private matters before completing the work process, so he clinked glasses with Keqing, and they both drank it all in one gulp.

He had been forced to drink by Kamisato Ayato, and his extraordinary physique had already adapted to the situation. However, Keqing obviously seldom participated in drinking, and she was obviously not used to it when drinking, and her fair face was flushed.

"Ms. Keqing, you are too polite. However, I see that you don't seem to be very good at drinking. How about we use tea instead of wine?"

After hearing this from her idol, Keqing's expression changed slightly.

She poured herself another glass of wine without hesitation and said stubbornly, "Who said I can't drink?"

Well, all thunder-types are tsundere, right?

5 Ganyu hatching eggs?

Seeing the purple-haired, cat-headed girl turning her head away and starting to be stubborn, Xie Yan had the illusion that he was dreaming of Inazuma again.

Apart from her somewhat surprising figure, Keqing's stubborn look is exactly the same as Ying's. It seems that it is not unreasonable for Keqing to be called the Liyue Thunder God.

But then again, at this moment Xie Yan really felt as if he was in a dream.

Sailing on the sea was extremely boring, and one could only occasionally see monsters like hillbillies or slimes. So after arriving near Liyue Harbor, Xie Yan was a little bit unconvinced when he saw the prosperous city standing on the land in the distance.

Before he could take a closer look, he met Beidou who was leading the fleet back. Naturally, the two had a heated conversation when they met, and he told Inazuma what had happened.

After a series of events, Xie Yan had no chance to catch his breath and felt like he was exploring a new map.

After receiving Keqing's second toast, Xie Yan decided to take a break and let Keqing get used to it, because Keqing really didn't seem to be good at drinking. Her face was visibly flushed after the second glass.

Fortunately, Keqing herself realized this and knew that drinking any more would delay her work, so she did not pour the third glass of wine.

Xie Yan picked up the chopsticks and picked up some dishes, and said in a familiar tone: "Thank you for the hospitality of Qixing, but it's not good to drink all the time. I haven't had time to eat dinner at sea, so why not eat something to fill my stomach first."

"Oh, sorry, I didn't think it through."

"No, actually it was our fault for not handling the situation properly. We should have sent someone to make the contact before we set off."

That being said, Keqing knew that the other party was just being polite. After all, the Inazuma isolation order had just been lifted. She couldn't ask them to fly over to notify Liyue in advance, right?

Rushing to Liyue as soon as possible to restore diplomatic relations was actually quite a sign of sincerity.

As for the informant reporting the news in advance, this kind of thing is tacitly known to everyone. After Inazuma resumes diplomatic relations, it will also place personnel in other countries. There is no need to bring it up on the table.

Both sides showed a preliminary friendly attitude and the dinner entered a new stage.

After Xie Yan took a few bites of the food, Keqing introduced the dishes on the table: "This is specially made by the chef of Xinyuexuan. Mr. Xie Yan, you lived in Liyue when you were a child, so you must be familiar with it."

“Of course I have heard of the names of Xinyue Pavilion and Liuli Pavilion, but for the people of Liyue, the most familiar one should be Wanmin Hall.”

"That's true. I also like the dishes at Wanmintang, especially their golden shrimp balls... ahem, but I heard that Mr. Xie Yan has the blood of an immortal. I guess his family must be quite famous, right?"

Keqing is a straightforward person after all, and when it comes to the relevant topic, she can't help but speak directly to test the waters.

This is due to duty. Even though Keqing has a good impression of Xie Yan and wants to discuss her ideals with him, it is ultimately a private matter and is based on the condition that "Xie Yan is a Liyue person."

If it were really a foreigner, even if he did something earth-shattering in their country, Keqing would not be as excited as she is now.

Xie Yan was not surprised by this test, as he would have done the same thing if he were in his place. However, this time he came to Liyue, in addition to the official business of re-establishing diplomatic relations and foreign trade, he also wanted to find out about his family's affairs first, and by the way, ask Liyue to cover it up for him so that he could sneak to Xumi.

So he got straight to the point and said, "Ms. Keqing... well, I'll just call you Keqing. To be honest, what I said at the dock just now was serious. I am indeed here to trace my roots, but my parents passed away too early, and I don't know much about my family's situation. The chief priest of our Narugami Shrine said that my life experience might be related to Sister Ganyu."

"Ganyu?" Keqing was stunned for a moment, then opened her mouth and showed a shocked expression like a cat.

A scene suddenly emerged in her mind of Ganyu squatting down with a gentle face to "hatch the eggs", waiting for Xie Yan to hatch out of the shell, and then patiently nurturing him to grow.

It seems reasonable for a unicorn to hatch eggs!

Could it be that Yue Haiting's secretary has an unknown past?

No, no, no, Ganyu has been working overtime, how can she have the time to hatch eggs!

That being said, even Keqing, who always likes to work overtime, felt that Ganyu was a bit miserable at this moment.

And the name of thanks...

Keqing asked in surprise: "Are you sure Ganyu is your sister?"

"I think... calling her grandma isn't very appropriate, right?"

"Ahahaha, it's my problem, sorry."

Keqing scratched the cat's head and smiled awkwardly.

"But Ganyu has been sent out on a mission and is not expected to be back until tomorrow. In this way, I will notify you as soon as she returns."

"Okay, thank you."

"You're welcome. Although I personally have some opinions about the attitude of immortals, I will not deny the outstanding contributions of immortals to Liyue. If you really have immortal blood, no matter what, the Seven Stars are obligated to help you find information about your family."

Speaking of this, Keqing was a little curious.

Immortals are of great significance to Liyue, and the Geo Emperor is also known as the leader of all immortals. Unless in peacetime, even a half-immortal has to sign a contract with the emperor. However, apart from Ganyu and Yanfei, there seems to be no other famous descendants of immortals around him.

Wait...the last name Xie. Keqing suddenly widened her eyes slightly.

Everyone in Liyue knows about the battle at the Layered Rock Abyss five hundred years ago. At that time, it was True Lord Fen Tian Zhu Hai who transformed himself into a Qilin and suppressed tens of millions of monsters, saving countless Qianyan Army soldiers and protecting Liyue.

Keqing has respected him since she was a child. After becoming a Seven Star, she looked up information and learned some details. This Qilin is actually half human and half fairy. He even fought alongside the Emperor during the Demon God War. However, his condition seemed not right later, and he rarely appeared in public until the battle in the Rocky Chasm.

It was said that at that time a Yaksha heard the news and chased into the abyss, but there was no further news afterwards.

The surname of this half-immortal Qilin is Xie, but it is said that he used forbidden techniques in that battle, which caused the immortal bloodline of his family to become increasingly thin. When the older generation of strong men died, the descendants of the family were basically no different from ordinary people, making a living by doing business, and later gradually disappeared.

Xie Yan, could it be that you are the descendant of this half-immortal?

Although I have an idea, it is a serious matter, so I should wait for Ganyu to come back. If it is really the bloodline of Qilin, Ganyu will be able to recognize it at a glance.

She and Xie Yan continued to eat.

Since they were both honest with each other and the other party was considered one of their own, Keqing felt that the atmosphere was good enough, so she continued to talk about the business of trade and establishing diplomatic relations.

"Actually, I'm in charge of land management and construction. Although I'll be present at the meeting, the main matters will still be decided by Ningguang. I'm sure we'll have a formal discussion tomorrow." Keqing explained.
