Keqing knew about Ye Lan's situation. The two families had had academic cooperation before. However, Ye Lan was a core figure in Liyue's intelligence network system, so it was not easy to introduce him.

Xie Yan’s stance was similar. If he called Ye Lan, everyone would be embarrassed, so it would be better to talk about it later.

Well, Queen Ye is much prettier than the portrait in the game. Although she doesn’t have long hair which I like, her mature ladylike style and the dangerous aura hidden in her eyes are as alluring as a rose.

After walking two steps forward, they found Secretary Bai Wen, who was already waiting outside. He bowed slightly and led the two into the main hall.

Different from Yujingtai, which is grand and elegant, the Qun Yu Pavilion is obviously luxurious and magnificent, which makes people have only one reaction when they see it: rich!

Even though Xie Yan was well prepared, he was still shocked for a long time after climbing up to the Qun Yu Pavilion. Although the area here is not as large as the castle tower, it has pavilions and towers, and there are many courtyards and houses, and there is even a private hot spring.

He found that Keqing seemed very calm and even made some comments on the design of the building on the way here.

Xie Yan then remembered that although everyone often teased Aqing for selling beef offal, her family was in the real estate business, so she was a real rich woman.

Recalling the scene of Keqing putting on and taking off black stockings just now, the translucent black stockings covered her snow-white and crystal skin little by little, outlining the round curves of her legs... If Xie Yan was starting from Liyue, he would definitely hug Keqing's thighs and not want to work hard.

But when he entered the reception hall, Xie Yan knew that Ningguang was the richest woman in Teyvat.

Not only are her assets huge, her own "assets" are also huge. Fortunately, Xie Yan is a veteran of the battlefield. On the night of leaving the island, she practiced the Big Ball Rasengan with the help of the Son of God, so she would not be dizzy by the slime.

Ningguang stepped forward and shook hands with Xie Yan: "Welcome back to Liyue."

After saying that, she pulled Xie Yan to sit down, her movements were warm, familiar and polite.

Since it was a small reception, Ningguang naturally wouldn't arrange any main seats or guest seats. As early as yesterday, she had instructed people to change to a round table that would bring people closer together.

“I’m really sorry. The situation in Liyue is complicated right now. I’ve been dealing with the Immortal Summoning Ceremony and the Fatui for the past two days.” After taking her seat, Ningguang spoke first.

She had a smile on her face and spoke in a gentle tone, as if she and Xie Yan were good friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.

Ningguang was indeed good at dealing with people. Not only was she able to control people's temperament, she also immediately pointed out the Fatui as a common enemy, skipped the meaningless small talk, and quickly advanced the conversation in a way that was in line with Xie Yan's style.

To be honest, when Xie Yan was pulled to sit by her, he felt that the situation was under Ningguang's control.

If it was before the time travel, Xie Yan would probably have seemed uneasy, but after the patient teaching of the Son of God, he quickly got rid of this oppressed inferior mentality.

Everyone has areas that they are not good at, and the key is to play to their strengths and avoid their weaknesses.

Xie Yan said calmly, "That's not necessary. The current situation in Liyue does require stricter measures. When Keqing and I went out before, we encountered some Fatui with ill intentions outside the city."

Keqing nodded repeatedly and recounted what had just happened.

Ningguang learned some information from Ye Lan. When she heard Keqing describing the actions of the Fatui, although her expression remained unchanged, Xie Yan could feel that Ningguang's eyes had become much sharper.

"It seems that the Fatui are becoming more and more dishonest..." Ningguang drooped her eyelids slightly, and then looked at Xie Yan again: "I'm sorry, Xie Yan, I made you laugh. Today I'm here to entertain you, so I won't talk about these unlucky things about the Fatui."

Xie Yan nodded, and then got straight to the point: "Well, I came to visit today mainly to discuss the re-establishment of diplomatic relations and cooperation between the two countries. However, Ningguang, you also know that my position is actually forced, and I am not familiar with business dealings, so my idea is that everything can be left as it is."

This was the truth. After a brief conversation after entering the door, Xie Yan had a better understanding of Ningguang's professionalism. He would not be so desperate as to negotiate business with the richest woman in Teyvat, so he simply kept things as they were.

Moreover, given Xie Yan's identity and background, it would not be convenient for him to stand on Inazuma's side and compete with Liyue for benefits.

Ningguang was slightly startled, but she seemed to have expected this. She chuckled and nodded in agreement, "That's fine. If we have to re-establish the rules and regulations, it will take a lot of energy for both parties. Since we agree, I will issue instructions to the General Affairs Department later. If Inazuma encounters any questions, she can go to the Eight Gates and ask."

"Thank you, Sister Ningguang."

After chatting for a while, Xie Yan added a friendly name.

Ningguang laughed and said, "In terms of age, I am indeed a few years older than you. If possible, I would really like to adopt such a hero as my younger brother."

Ok?

Xie Yan was shocked. What did Ningguang mean by this? I was just being polite, why did she want to acknowledge me as her brother?

He was unsure of the current situation, and seeing Keqing also looked confused, he couldn't help but fall into a dilemma.

Ningguang is the richest person in the world and she is single. It is a good deal to recognize such a sister no matter how you look at it. Before Xie Yan left for Liyue, he had already prepared to recognize sisters everywhere.

but--

Somehow, the words "I have been wandering for half my life, and I only regret that I have not met Sister Ming" were stuck in his lips and he couldn't say them out. He always felt that if he said them, he would become Xie Fengxian.

Then what? Lu Bu only stabbed his adoptive father, but he only stabbed his adoptive sister?

Even if I, Xie Yan, starve to death or jump off the Qun Yu Pavilion, I will never...

After only two seconds of hesitation, Xie Yan stretched out his hands, clasped his fists, and prepared to say his famous words.

Ningguang smiled widely, pursed her lips, and had already thought of how to answer.

Although she suddenly brought up this matter through Xie Yan's words, it was not a spur-of-the-moment idea... Keqing wanted to change Liyue and make Liyue the most satisfying work of the Emperor. Ningguang also had her own considerations. She was well aware that the relationship between humans and immortals in Liyue was somewhat distant, and someone was needed to connect them.

There was no chance before, but now that Xie Yan appeared, it was completely different. Even the True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng, who was not very good at chatting, would give him face.

Of course, this is not exploitation. Based on the information she has collected, Ningguang believes that Xie Yan really needs the help of the immortals, and she will fulfill her responsibilities as a good sister.

Just at this critical moment, an unexpected person walked in.

Wang Xiaomei!

Oh, no, it’s Ganyu.

Under the white short cheongsam with golden patterns, the legs wrapped in black stockings are very eye-catching.

However, today Ganyu did not have the feeling of being ready to doze off at any time like in the game. As soon as she entered the door, she set her sights on Xie Yan and walked towards him quickly.

On the way back to Qun Yu Pavilion, Gan Yu happened to meet Ye Lan and learned about Xie Yan's situation from her, which is why she seemed so hurried.

As both were half-human and half-immortal, and had inherited the bloodline of the Qilin, she and True Lord Burning Heaven and Boiling Sea were very familiar with each other in the past, and they could be considered cousins. However, after the battle at the Layered Rock Abyss, True Lord Burning Heaven and Boiling Sea, who was already polluted, died, which became a great regret in her heart. Over the years, she has been trying her best to take care of the other's family.

Now that Xie Yan, her only child, has returned to Liyue, she must of course take good care of him.

only--

Xie Yan had already created the right atmosphere. When Gan Yu came over, he wanted to say hello, but he subconsciously clasped his hands and said, "I have been wandering for half my life, and I only regret that I have never met Sister Ming..."

13 Gan Yu: Xie Yan, do you have a girlfriend?

Ganyu knew that Xie Yan came to Liyue not only as a surveyor, but also to trace his roots. So on the way back, she had already imagined the touching scene of the grandfather and grandson recognizing each other in her mind.

For example, Ah Xie hugged him and cried, telling him about his experiences in Inazuma, and then she patted his back to comfort him and looked at him with kind and gentle eyes.

In any case, this scene seemed very warm to her.

but--

"If Sister Ganyu doesn't give up, I'm willing to be your sworn sister!"

???

The blue hair on Ganyu's head seemed to have turned into the shape of a question mark.

Isn’t this generation structure a bit confusing?

But when she saw the sincere tone and firm eyes of the thanks, she suddenly felt that it was very reasonable.

The atmosphere was just right, Ganyu nodded dully as usual: "Okay."

As soon as she finished speaking, the whole room fell into silence.

Ningguang: ???

Keqing: !!!

Xie Yan: Okay, it’s a big deal!

After such a long time of preparation, the atmosphere for chatting was finally there. Xie Yan was very engaged when he acknowledged his sister and finished his words fluently.

But he didn't expect that if he dared to say it, Ganyu would also dare to admit it! Now the seniority is all messed up!

The two looked at each other, and their expressions were somewhat complicated.

Ganyu opened her mouth and wanted to say something but swallowed it back. She originally came to visit the only son of the Xie family, but now he had become her sworn brother. How should she start?

She was relatively familiar with the social etiquette at work, but when it came to her personal feelings, she was rather confused and could only stand there with a dazed look on her face.

The first one to react was Ningguang.

However, even she could hardly hold back in this situation, so she could only take out her pipe to play with it to divert her attention, and jokingly said, "Just now, Xie Yan was going to acknowledge me as his sworn sister, right? I didn't expect that you, Ganyu, would get there first."

Although this was just an accident, it didn't seem appropriate to ask Xie Yan to recognize her as her sworn sister now... After all, Xie Yan looked very strong-willed and was definitely not a traitor.

Keqing was still in a state of shock, but she suddenly thought of something: "This is fine. Xie Yan can't call Ganyu grandma anyway, so calling her sister is fine."

Ganyu nodded in agreement when she heard this.

But after recognizing her sister just now, she was no longer able to give Xie Yan a kind look.

But after calming down, Ganyu found that she had no time to worry about relationship issues, because...

"Xie Yan, have you started using the power of Qilin?"

Ganyu has been practicing immortal arts since the Demon War period, and has also reached the peak of the development of her own bloodline. She can tell Xie Yan's current condition with just a glance.

Her face didn't look very good, because it meant that the curse in Xie Yan's blood would also come. Although this would speed up the progress of cultivation, it would also make people crazy faster.

Xie Yan nodded and was about to answer when Ningguang winked at Keqing. The two of them walked out of the room tacitly, leaving the space to Ganyu and Xie Yan.

I have to say that Ningguang really makes people feel comfortable in the way she deals with people.

Xie Yan told Ganyu about his own situation and showed her what he had comprehended, "Xie Yan, fire-breathing". After all, he came to her this time to complete the inheritance.

But after spitting fire, Xie Yan felt a little uncomfortable again. Gan Yu patted his shoulder gently and encouraged him: "It's okay, you are just getting started, you will definitely be more powerful in the future."

He knew that Ganyu wanted to encourage him, but now Xie Yan still remembered that the Son of God used the same gentle tone to encourage him to "regain his valor."

Small and cute.jpg

Unconsciously, Xie Yan found himself turning into the form of the Son of God in many places.

“Ahem, anyway, Sister Ganyu, don’t worry too much. In fact, my immortal bloodline has not been developed much, and I usually rely on my own strength in battles.” Xie Yan said seriously.

But Ganyu shook her head: "No, you have indeed not cultivated any immortal arts, but you already have a partial body of a demon god. The consequences of this situation are even more serious."

As she spoke, she suddenly came in front of Xie Yan, took Xie Yan's hand and closed her eyes to feel it.

"Strange, it's not contaminated..."

A hint of confusion flashed across Ganyu's purple eyes, but this was undoubtedly a good thing, as she had originally planned to ask the Emperor for help.

Xie Yan looked a little confused and asked curiously, "I do have a treasure that can purify evil spirits, but what about the body of the demon god you mentioned, Sister Ganyu?"

"You should know what conditions are needed to become a demon god, right? Your ancestor, True Lord Fen Tian Zhu Hai, was able to fight the demon god because he had a good fortune when he went to Mount Xumi, which allowed his Qilin bloodline to combine with a certain power to create a unique demon god body. The Qilin Dharma Image materializes the power of the [Spirit] power based on the demon god body."

"Perhaps it is because of the immortality of the power of the demon god that his ability to connect to the World Tree has been passed down through his bloodline. However, due to the dilution of his bloodline, his descendants can only use the power of the Qilin at most. Few people can possess the body of a demon god like you, even though it is not perfect enough."

Xie Yan roughly understood that Ganyu was referring to her own Sharingan. After the system's magical modification, this thing has become a youthful version of the Demon God's Body (Inazuma version), and the Kirin Dharma Image is the Liyue version of Susanoo.

Wait, given the nature of the Ma family system, don't tell me that to become a demon god in the future, I will need to get a demon god's left hand or a demon god's right leg. Are you playing Yu-Gi-Oh here?

While Xie Yan was thinking, Gan Yu briefly told him the story of Master Fentian Zhuhai and his family.

She could be said to be the person who knew the most about what happened besides Zhongli, and she also witnessed the decline of the Xie family with her own eyes.

"Your ancestor once told me that the pollution of the World Tree broke out once a thousand years ago. He and his family suffered the first pollution. Since then, he has been corroded by the forbidden power. His body and mind have gradually become twisted and corrupted. Fortunately, the Emperor took action in time, and the situation at the World Tree has improved, so no disaster has occurred."

"Then there was the battle at the Layered Rock Abyss. However, the Emperor was on a campaign against Kanria at the time. We immortals fought hard but were still defeated. He had no choice but to take action and fell into the abyss with the demon beast, ending the battle."

"Later, the Emperor went down to the abyss to explore and found that he had used the power of the devil again, causing a second contamination. This time the contamination was more severe, but he himself unexpectedly disappeared."

"However, when the curse first occurred, everyone in the Xie family knew about it, so they would not use their power unless necessary for the past 500 years. This way, they could at least spend their old age in peace. As for your father, he used the power of the Qilin because of an incident at Qingce Manor. Later, he traveled to Inazuma hoping to get rid of the curse, but it seems he failed."

Xie Yan remained silent.

To be honest, he was a little confused. It was clearly just an identity arranged by the system. But as he listened to Ganyu recounting the stories of his ancestors, he inexplicably felt a sense of participation, and his heart seemed to be touched.

But soon, Xie Yan's mind returned to its usual tranquility.

His will had already been tested enough, and his understanding of "I" had already taken shape. Even though his heart was touched by the story, he knew very well that he was essentially "Otaku time traveler Xie Yan."

Of course, now that he has benefited from someone's kindness, he naturally has to make corresponding repayments. Essentially, Xie Yan doesn't like to owe favors to others.

"Thank you, Sister Gan Yu, for answering my questions. I now have a general idea of ​​the family's situation." Xie Yan rubbed his brows, "Don't worry. I have been prepared for pollution from the beginning and will not act rashly."

"Well, you can't get into trouble again. You are the only one left in the Xie family. If we want to expand the family, we have to rely on you."

Speaking of this, Gan Yu suddenly urged enthusiastically like a relative at the New Year: "Xie Yan, do you have a girlfriend now? You are not young anymore, you should get married as soon as possible to pass on the family line."

14 Infinite Monthly Reading?

In fact, she herself did not understand much of this, but in the past two thousand years in Liyue Harbor, although she had not eaten pork, she had seen pigs run. During every Lantern Festival, she would hear the elders asking young people this question, which she thought was a sign of concern.

Now that she also has a junior, she naturally has to pay more attention to him. Even if Xie Yan doesn’t have a girlfriend, Ganyu will find a way to introduce one to him.

Uh...wait, who should I look for? Keqing? Ningguang? Shenhe? Or Yanfei, who is also a half-immortal?

Keqing was born into a well-off family, but she loves work too much and cannot take care of her family. What if her child is hungry? She can't let an elder feed the child, right?
