Seeing her like this, Ying was almost amused by her, but seeing the situation at hand, she still put on a serious look.

"Paimon is right."

Upon hearing this, Paimon proudly put his hands on his hips.

Then Higashino Yu spoke.

"Although Paimon is an idiot, he is still my emergency food after all. There is no reason for him to be bullied by outsiders."

"That's right!"

"Wait! I'm not emergency food!"

As he spoke, Paimon punched Higashino Yuu's shoulder with his little fist.

But that little bit of strength made it seem like she was just acting coquettishly.

"Ha! Is that so? I won't do that next time!"

Tartaglia smiled and waved to the waiter, asking him to add another chair to the table.

However, before the other party came over, Higashino Yu signaled to the other party that it was not necessary.

"What? I say, we have fought each other before, you won't even give me a chair to sit on!"

"Because there is no need. I was invited by Ningguang just now, so I am going to the Jade Pavilion now."

He was naturally with Ying and Paimon.

So this seat is vacant.

Hearing this, a light suddenly flashed in Tartaglia's eyes.

"Then you should go early and come back early. I will treat you to dinner later."

Obviously, what he said about treating me to a meal was false, but the same could not be said about other things.

"Let's talk about it next time."

Dongye nodded casually, said goodbye to Hu Tao Zhongli, and left.

As soon as they left, Hu Tao seemed to remember something.

"I have something else to do today so I won't be with you guys."

Having said that, he turned and left without waiting for Tartaglia to say anything.

Datalia was not surprised by this, as he had some understanding of the head of the Hall of Rebirth.

To be precise, he has information on all the owners of the Eye of God in Liyue.

After all, the Eye of God is an external magic organ and is generally worn outside by everyone, so it is not too difficult to collect the owners of the Eye of God in the entire Liyue.

But before he could sit down, Zhongli stood up.

"Pay the bill."

He said to the waiter on the side with a calm expression.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Tartaglia looked at him with resentment, and said, "I knew it would be like this."

There was no way Zhongli could pay the bill himself. He was just treating himself as a mobile wallet.

"Can't these accounts be put on the account of the Hall of Rebirth?"

Zhongli explained this.

"After all, Hall Master Hu saw with his own eyes that I was unemployed, so it would not be good to put it on the account of the Wangsheng Hall."

"Then just remember it here?"

Although Tartaglia had a thousand complaints in his heart, he finally held it back.

After all, he still has some funds.

“But we can’t just let the funding go on like this!”

Faced with Tartaglia's resentful eyes, Zhongli remained unmoved.

Tartaglia sighed helplessly and had to pay the bill in the end. No matter what role Zhongli would play in the future or anything else, Zhongli was someone worth associating with.

……

At this time, in the Qun Yu Pavilion above Liyue.

Higashino Yuu, Ying and the other two were strolling around the center of this building...

Although Ganyu did not tell them how to get to the Jade Pavilion, Higashino Yu could fly, so he flew up directly with Ying and Paimon.

Fortunately, Ningguang had already greeted them beforehand, so everyone here knew them and no trouble occurred.

After coming in, Higashino You glanced at Paimon who was looking around curiously, and couldn't help but smile and shook his head.

"If there's anything you want to see, you'd better take a good look at it. Otherwise, you might not have the chance to see it later."

"That's true."

Paimon nodded with understanding.

"After all, this is the territory of the Liyue Seven Stars. It's definitely not a place where people like us can just enter whenever we want."

As she spoke, she looked around, as if she wanted to remember everything she saw deeply in her mind.

Seeing this scene, the staff present just smiled.

When they first came here to work, they were not much stronger than Paimon is now.

Only Ying felt that Dongye You's tone didn't seem to mean that, and couldn't help but touch his arm.

"Is this going to be a problem?"

In response, Higashino Yuu just glanced at her and whispered.

"Do you know that the Rock God Morax has a move called Heaven Moving All Things? It uses a large piece of meteorite to smash down directly from the sky."

“I haven’t seen this before.”

Ying tilted her head and frowned.

However, if a meteorite fell from the sky, it would probably be quite shocking. It's a pity that such a powerful rock god has died.

At this point she couldn't help but sigh.

But I still don't understand what Yan Shen's moves have to do with this.

However, before she could ask carefully, several people had already arrived at the door of the reception room. When the staff pushed open the door, Ningguang was already waiting inside.

"Everyone, sorry for the wait..."

After a brief greeting, Ningguang didn't say anything more and started analyzing the boulder in front of everyone.

"The immortals are impatient. After learning about this, they will definitely take control of Liyue first to investigate the cause of the Emperor's death."

"But now Liyue is a society ruled by people. We cannot allow the immortals to take away all our achievements. Conflicts will inevitably occur at that time."

722. The Immortal and the Seven Stars are one family

Although Ningguang considers herself a businessman, we must not ignore the fact that she has grown to the level of one of the Seven Stars of Liyue. In this position, even a pig can understand politics and see the conflicts and contradictions involved.

So she won't try to be clever in front of a strong man like Higashino Yuu.

Higashino Yuu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard what he said.

"Since conflict is inevitable, it would be fine if we were the weak ones involved in the conflict, but since we are the strong ones, we have no choice but to take sides. Miss Ningguang must have come to us for this matter."

"Yes."

Ningguang nodded and admitted it directly.

"I hope that Dong Yeyou and the Traveler can stand on the side of the Liyue Seven Stars."

The immortal’s fighting power is terrifying, even if the seven stars of Liyue attack at the same time, they are no match for him.

Although the Liyue Seven Stars also have the Thousand Rock Army under their command.

But the Qianyan Army today is no longer the Qianyan Army of a thousand years ago.

The Qianyan Army a thousand years ago wore Qianyan suits and held extremely powerful weapons. A Qianyan 26th Army even dared to confront Osel and Bazhe.

But now, since the assessment of the Demon God's Disaster, under the erosion of time, the Qianyan Set that has been circulated in the world has almost become extinct, and the production method has been completely lost. It can be said that the current Qianyan Army is good at guarding the territory, but it is not enough to fight against the immortals or even the demon gods.

In addition to these, there are people like Ganyu, who is the secretary of the Seven Stars of Liyue but tends to be an immortal.

Especially in Liyue, there are more than just Ganyu who have a relationship with the immortals.

Xiangling, Yaoyao, Qiqi, although these people are human, they have relationships with immortals.

In addition, the strength of just a few immortals who often appear should not be underestimated.

There are True Lord Ge Chen Lang Shi, True Lord Liu Yun Jie Feng, as well as True Lord Li Shui Die Shan and True Lord Xue Yue Zhu Yang who are said to have a very good relationship with True Lord Liu Yun Jie Feng. Ordinary possessors of the Eye of God are no match for them.

Even if it's Ningguang, Keqing and Ye Lan, it won't work.

Therefore, there are not many high-level combat forces among the Seven Stars of Liyue. There are a few who possess the Eye of God, but there are also some ordinary people.

Not to mention that there is also a great demon-conquering saint who has been guarding Dihua Island since long ago.

To be frank, if a full-scale conflict really breaks out, the Liyue Seven Stars will really not be a match. The immortals and the emperor established Liyue in the first place. Is Liyue going to be destroyed now because of the emperor?

Thinking of all the disadvantages, Ningguang couldn't help but take another puff from the cigarette pipe in her hand.

Then his eyes fell on Higashino Yuu and Ying and wouldn't leave.

These two are the only ones who can help her with this problem. Not to mention that they are very powerful and can suppress Childe Tartaglia among the Fatui, their pure identities as travelers will ensure that they will not pose a threat to Liyue after helping her.

Although the practice of occupying a place under the guise of providing support has never happened in Liyue, it does not mean that she has not heard of it.

So after much consideration, Ningguang invited Higashino Yuu and Ying.

"Of course, it would be too low-level for us to discuss any compensation in our position. If we can successfully overcome this difficulty, it will mean that Liyue will take a step forward, and then you will gain the friendship of the entire Liyue Seven Stars."

In response to this, the two of them looked at each other at the same time and shook their heads at the same time.

Under the other party's puzzled gaze, Higashino Yu did not speak, but Ying explained it instead.

“Ms. Ningguang, I really like Liyue now.”

Ying took a deep breath and then said firmly.

"Ah."

Ningguang nodded, but her eyes were still puzzled.

"If that's the case, shouldn't you support me even more?"

“If the immortals were allowed to attack Liyue Harbor, it would probably turn into something else.”

In response to Ningguang's words, Ying shook her head seriously.

“Liyue is not the Liyue of the Liyue Seven Stars, nor is it the Liyue of the immortals, but the Liyue of humans.”

"Liyue, whether it's humans or immortals, is a part of it. The two cannot be separated. If they are separated, they can no longer be regarded as the original Liyue."

"We are not from this country, so if Liyue is invaded by foreign enemies, I can draw my sword and protect this city with all my heart like everyone here, but Immortal and Liyue Seven Stars, you are all part of Liyue. In other words, this battle is actually an internal battle among you, so I cannot participate."

“Because we are not qualified.”

"The matter between you is destined to be resolved by you two."

After saying these words in one breath, Ying's face turned slightly red.

But even the eloquent Ningguang was stunned after hearing these words.

In fact, what Ying said was very simple. No matter whether you are immortals or the Seven Stars of Liyue, you are one family. You can fight with each other as much as you want, but if you call in these two outsiders, things will become peculiar.

It was like two brothers fighting, and one side directly called people from the other family.

This will have no effect other than possibly causing the war to spread more widely.

"Well said."

Higashino Yu smiled and praised Ying's words.

And this affirmation made Ying smile even more.
