Although Ying usually appears silent, she actually has a very strong character.

Only then did Ningguang come back to her senses and smiled helplessly.

"Miss Ningguang's words really make me feel ashamed, but if I have offended you just now, please forgive me."

"I really shouldn't have involved you two in the conflict between the Liyue Seven Stars and the Immortals. I'm very sorry for that."

It was very rare for her to apologize as the leader of the Seven Stars of Liyue.

However, after apologizing, Ningguang calmed down again.

"In that case, just pretend you didn't hear my request. But I still hope you can lend me a hand. If the Seven Stars of Liyue really clash with the Immortals, I'm afraid there will be no one left to monitor the Fatui. The Fatui sent Childe Tartaglia here. Something must be going to happen, but we don't know."

"So I hope you two can help me keep an eye on them, or at least figure out their plans and goals."

723. Undercurrent

When talking about this issue, Ningguang's expression became serious.

Obviously, the people she suspected most about the Emperor's murder were the Fatui.

"If it's just surveillance, no problem."

Upon hearing this request, Ying agreed immediately.

As long as she doesn't need to get involved in Liyue's internal struggles but needs to defend Liyue against enemies outside, she can agree.

Not to mention that Wendy was frozen when her Heart of God was taken away, so she would be very willing to take the opportunity to deal with the Fatui.

After discussing this matter, Ningguang personally took Dongyeyou and the others to visit the Qun Yu Pavilion.

On the way, Higashino Yuya told her about Kurumi's idea of ​​bidding farewell to the Emperor, and showed her the video he had prepared.

"Are we going to have to have a ten-mile long street to see you off? Okay, I get it. The Emperor has protected Liyue for so many years, and he really deserves a ten-mile long street to see you off. No, even ten miles is not enough. My county will prepare ten miles, and the rest will depend on the people's spontaneous preparations."

Ning Guang nodded.

"However, sending off the Emperor's body is not something that can be done in a day or two. Now that the Emperor has suddenly passed away, the entire Liyue is in turmoil, so I must make preparations."

Ningguang nodded.

What she said was not false. The death of Geo King was too sudden, so no one was prepared at the beginning, which also led to the panic among the people of Liyue.

So now we really need a funeral to let everyone accept the departure of Emperor Rock.

"Oh, by the way, I remember that in Liyue's ancient past, there was a ceremony to send off the immortals. Can it be held here as well?"

Suddenly Ningguang's eyes lit up.

"That's up to you. But if you want to send the Immortal Ceremony, I would recommend Zhongli, the guest official of the Wangsheng Hall. He may not be well-versed in history, but he knows a lot about ancient things. He also has a strong eye for identifying antiques and gems. Maybe he can help you."

"Zhongli? Indeed, I have heard of his name before. Okay, I will go check it out."

"Then we'll take our leave."

After the two sides finished their contact, Higashino You didn't say anything more and took the two of them down from the Qun Yu Pavilion.

Looking at the backs of the three people leaving, Ningguang couldn't help but let out a sigh, not knowing what she was thinking.

"By the way, Dongye, you just told me that Emperor Yanwang has a move called Heaven Moving All Things, what's next?"

"Look at this group of jade pavilions. Do you think they are another meteorite? If it were her, would it also cause a heaven-shaking event? But this time it was not Emperor Yan who smashed it, but Ningguang herself.

"What? You said that Ningguang will be crushed by the Jade Pavilion when she is fighting? That's unlikely. I heard that the Jade Pavilion was built by Ningguang when she was still a nobody, and it has been continuously expanded over the years. Is it going to be crushed now?"

Paimon's eyes widened upon hearing this.

Qunyu Pavilion.

That was Ningguang's hard work, and it might be shattered in the future?

Ying on the other side was obviously thinking much more than Paimon. She looked at the huge Qun Yu Pavilion behind her and wondered what kind of enemy would make Ningguang smash it down.

"Do you know something? Do you have the same predictive ability as Mona?"

Ying couldn't help but ask.

"That's about right. Just assume I have the ability to predict the future."

"But what kind of enemy did we encounter that requires this? Don't you, Dongye, help?"

Paimon on the side also came back to his senses after hearing this, and looked at Higashino Yu with curiosity.

She has seen Higashino Yu's strength. What kind of person could make Higashino Yu helpless?

"No, I might help, but I definitely won't help you with everything. Do you know how to make brothers reconcile when they are fighting?"

"What kind of method?"

Paimon tilted his head with a confused look on his face, while Ying seemed to have thought of something but didn't know how to describe it or how to start.

"That's when there's an external enemy."

"Brothers are still a family no matter how much they quarrel. They have the same common interests. But it's different for foreign enemies. They have nothing to do with this place, so they will destroy it without any scruples."

"Is that really the case? Liyue's enemies come from outside? Could it be the Fatui?"

Paimon thought for a moment, then his eyes widened.

Now basically no matter what problems she encounters, she can forget to blame the Fatui. Although it is not completely right, the Fatui still bears 70% of the responsibility.

"Haha, if it's just the Fatui, it might not be that complicated. I'm just worried that something else will pop up..."

He didn't tell anyone about the young master awakening the demon.

Because it feels useless.

In fact, the Book of No Taboos in Young Master's hand is almost ready. The reason why it has not been detonated is that he is waiting for Liyue to fall into turmoil.

"Wow...so scary..."

Paimon's eyes widened when he heard this.

……

The meeting between the Liyue Seven Stars and the immortals has been scheduled for the evening of the next day.

That night, all the Seven Stars of Liyue stood in Ningguang's Jade Pavilion, and the staff nearby were constantly looking through various materials in order to learn more about the Liyue immortals, so as to increase the success rate when persuading the immortals.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, they do not want to engage in combat with the immortals. Regardless of whether they can defeat them or not, the main reason is that it will do them no good at all.

If they win, at most Liyue will become a society ruled by humans, but it will also inevitably become weak (Qian Zhao). If they lose, that's even worse, it's hard to say whether Liyue will still exist by then.

The Liyue Immortals signed a contract with the Geo King, but no contract was signed with the Liyue Seven Stars.

At the same time, the Fatui began to bide their time.

There was an undercurrent all night, and the next morning, before Dongye You woke up, there was a knock on the door and Zhongli's voice outside.

"Wait, here you are. Why are you here?"

Looking at Zhongli, Dongye You rubbed his eyes, looking puzzled.

"Ningguang, one of the Seven Stars of Liyue, just received me last night. Now I have to start preparing the ceremony for Emperor Yanwang to send the Immortal Ceremony."

"Huh? Just for this? Can't you just come by yourself? And I remember there are a lot of things to look for, wouldn't it be exhausting?"

"No, in fact, Ningguang gave us most of the things last night, so now we only lack one."

724. Xin Yan's Performance

When talking about this matter, Zhongli was also full of amazement. It was really powerful to be rich. All the materials he had just mentioned were delivered within an hour.

The execution is simply terrifying!

At the same time, it also made him, who didn't have any Mora, extremely envious.

"Oh? What materials are missing?"

"Wild glass lilies."

"Wild glass lilies? Why do you have to come here to look for them? There are obviously a lot of them in the gardens of Yujing Terrace."

Paimon put his hands behind his back and tilted his head, asking curiously.

"Yes, there are many in the fields of Qingce Village."

Although the colored lily is a species unique to Liyue, it is not rare. In particular, there are a large number of them in the fields of Yujingtai and Qingce Village.

It really doesn't require too much of a headache to use.

With Ningguang's resources, she only needs to open her mouth to get several carts of glazed lilies delivered to her.

"The ones you mentioned are all outdated artificially bred varieties, and they are not suitable."

"The glass lily once grew in large numbers on Ogihua Island. It was a joyful flower that would bloom in response to people's singing."

"But later, due to the landslides caused by the Demon God War, Ogihua Island was flooded and turned into a wetland. As a result, the glass lily was almost extinct, so it was cultivated artificially. However, few people know that the wild glass lily has not been completely extinct."

"This kind of glass lily has a strong fragrance. If it is ground into powder and placed in the immortal incense burner, it will be the complete tradition of sending immortals."

Paimeng was overwhelmed after hearing Zhongli's eloquent talk.

Even Ying couldn't help but admire: "The traditions of Liyue 1 are really complicated."

"Speaking of which, Dongye, didn't you say that the country you once lived in is very similar to Liyue? Is it possible that there are such complicated traditions in your country as well?"

"Ah? That's about right. In ancient my country, traditions were also very complicated. In fact, some of them have been preserved even now, but many have been simplified. After all, they take up too much time. In our era, young people's time is very precious. It is impossible for people like Liyue to work from sunrise to sunset like they do now."

"Ah? Did you have more time to rest in your time? Was the working time shorter and therefore more precious?"

Paimon tilted his head with a curious look on his face.

"No, we implement the 996 work system, which means am to pm, and then work six hours a day."

Higashino Yu said this calmly, words that terrified Paimon and Ying, and even Zhongli looked at him sideways.

"...People of your time...were really hardworking."

After considering for two seconds, Zhongli spoke slowly.

"Yeah, that's what I thought too."

Higashino Yuu smiled faintly.

"But I still think it would be better to have more traditional ceremonies. After all, although traditional ceremonies take time, they contain a kind of love. Since it is a love, then naturally we should strive for perfection in details, otherwise it will just be lip service."

"Well, I completely agree with what you said." Zhongli looked at Dongye You and nodded, then he said slowly.

"Speaking of which, I still need your help in collecting the colored lilies this time."

Hearing this, Ying was stunned.

Paimon on the side crossed his arms and snorted coldly.

"I knew that you would wake me up so early for no good reason. I guess that's what you meant!"

Zhongli nodded.

"I'm not good at music, so I'll just have to ask you guys for help."

Emperor Rock King never lies. Since he said that he is not good at music, it is probably true that he is not good at it.

So after Zhongli said this, everyone turned their eyes to Higashino Yu.

"Singing? I can do that, but my skills are just average. I'm better at playing guitar and drums than singing."

As he spoke, Higashino Yuya made a musical gesture.

"Guitar? Are you talking about Xin Yan's instrument?"

Paimon on the side couldn't help but speak with his eyes brightened when he heard this.

Speaking of Xin Yan, she is a celebrity in Liyue Harbor.

Because she is spreading a very new art form in Liyue Harbor - rock.

In Liyue Harbor today, drama and storytelling are still the mainstream. The sudden appearance of Xin Yan's rock music at this time is no less than a mudslide suddenly appearing in the originally clear and transparent river water.

It can be said that people who are accustomed to ancient dramas have always held a deep prejudice against it.

But Xin Yan didn't take this seriously at all. Instead, she continued to create based on the prejudice, using music and passion to sing the praises of the resistance to "prejudice".

That is why Xinyan still has a good group of fans in Liyue.
