Miss Liuying, I'm really not a bad guy

Chapter 103: Osel: A chill on my back

"Good morning. Please forgive my sudden visit. I don't know what your next plans are, so I thought it would be better for me to come in person."

Keqing stood outside the train door, looking at Wen Sheng with a serious expression.

"Ah... come in and talk."

Seeing that Keqing looked like she was in a hurry, Wen Sheng took the initiative to turn sideways and invited Keqing.

"Is it really possible? Getting on the train or something..."

Looking at Wen Sheng's actions, Keqing was very surprised. He actually invited her to enter the train... Could she... be the first person in Liyue to enter the Starry Sky Train?

"It's okay, come in. Don't you have something to talk to me about? It's not convenient to talk outside."

Wen Sheng smiled and shook his head at Keqing, indicating that there was no problem.

"Well...ok, excuse me for interrupting you."

Keqing nodded slightly, then stepped into the train.

As soon as she stepped onto the train, Keqing was attracted by the various displays inside.

The style of these furniture... is completely different from Liyue's style, and there are also some things whose purpose is unknown.

"Ah, it's Miss Keqing. Welcome aboard the Starry Sky Train."

Gently putting down Elio in her hand, Liuying walked to Wen Sheng with a smile and welcomed Keqing.

"Well, long time no see, Miss Liuying."

Keqing nodded and smiled at Liuying.

"So this is what the interior of the Star Train looks like... From the outside, you can't imagine what it's like inside."

Keqing sighed and shook her head.

Turning her attention back to Wen Sheng, Keqing's eyes became serious again.

"I'm here this time to invite the Starry Sky Train to participate in the Immortal Invitation Ceremony in a day!"

Watching Wen Sheng's reaction, Keqing knew that Wen Sheng knew what the Immortal Summoning Ceremony was. Ningguang had also mentioned it to him before in the Qun Yu Pavilion.

"Inviting the immortals... a ceremony?"

Liuying looked at Wen Sheng beside her in confusion. He should know what this was, right?

Sure enough, after thinking for a moment, Wen Sheng nodded to Keqing.

"Well, since we happened to catch the Immortal Invitation Ceremony, there's no reason for us not to participate. It just so happens that the train needs to take a break recently, so we can be considered to have caught it at the right time."

Wen Sheng agreed to participate in the ceremony of inviting the immortals.

"Thank you very much, Starry Sky Train. I believe that with your participation, this ceremony of inviting the immortals will be unprecedentedly grand!"

Keqing smiled and nodded.

"In that case, I won't bother you any more."

"Well, take care, Miss Keqing."

"it is good."

Keqing left. She came and went quickly, but it also made Wen Sheng give up the idea of ​​leaving Teyvat quickly.

After all, he caught up with the ceremony of inviting the immortals, and he was quite curious about what this ceremony would be like.

"By the way...what is that ceremony to invite the immortals?"

Miss Liuying came up to Wen Sheng curiously, blinking her big eyes, her eyes full of curiosity.

"Well... you can think of it as Liyue's grand annual ceremony. On this day, Liyue's Seven Stars will report their work for the past year to Liyue's Rock God on Yujing Terrace, and also request instructions from the Rock Emperor."

"All in all, it was a very meaningful ceremony. I didn't expect that we could even make it this time. In that case, why not rest here for a while before exploring the new world."

Wen Sheng briefly explained the situation of the ceremony of inviting the immortals to Liuying, and told her about the next plan for the train.

"Yeah, that's fine with me. In that case...we can also experience the festival here, which wouldn't be bad."

Liuying expressed her approval of Wen Sheng’s train parking plan. After all, they are not busy now.

She had just discovered that she could now contact Kafka and the others directly. This way, she would know more or less what was happening on the other side.

"Then let's go experience Liyue's...unusual ritual of inviting the immortals tomorrow!"

……

The day before the Immortal Invitation Ceremony, the entire Liyue Harbor was filled with solemnity.

All the idle Thousand Rocks soldiers in Liyue gathered outside Liyue Harbor, set up camp on the spot, and waited for tomorrow's ceremony to summon the immortals.

With the existence of protective gear, the Qianyan Army no longer needs to deploy too many troops in various places in Liyue. In addition, with the large-scale cleanup of Liyue led by Yuhengxing some time ago, the demons in Liyue have become much more obedient than before, and even the dragon lizards are much quieter than usual.

How can they not be at peace... If they themselves are not at peace, someone will have to come and "help" them to be at peace...

Sure enough, in the face of absolute strength, all abnormal phenomena are child's play.

The lights above the Qun Yu Pavilion were still bright, and Ningguang, who was in charge of tomorrow's ceremony to invite the immortals, was still working.

This time's ceremony of inviting the immortals is different from the previous ones. She invited people from many countries to participate in this ceremony, and also let the Qianyan Army train for a period of time. At the ceremony, they will be the shining point before the arrival of the Emperor.

At the same time, it is also a deterrent.

A country with gods ruling the world and such a powerful army... who would dare to be an enemy of Liyue?

It can be said that Ningguang’s ambition is Liyue’s “ambition”. Although she does not want to seize territory like the demons in the past, anyone who wants to covet Liyue should consider how much “confidence” they have behind them!

After setting up the game for such a long time, it’s time to reveal the cards!

……

Yoseidou

"Um... Zhongli, why aren't you sleeping at this hour..."

Yawning, Hu Tao rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked at Zhongli under the moon, his big peach blossom eyes full of confusion.

This guy... doesn't he usually go to bed earlier than anyone else?

"It's just that I have some worries that I can't let go of. What's going on, Hall Master..."

Zhongli turned his head slightly and looked at Hu Tao who got up late at night.

This kid... doesn't he want to go meet clients late at night again?

"Well... I just drank a little too much water last night. You should go to bed early. Tomorrow we will hold the Immortal Ceremony. We should take this opportunity to make a wish to the Emperor to improve the performance of our Wangsheng Hall..."

Looking at Hu Tao who turned and left, obviously still not awake from his sleep, Zhongli smiled helplessly.

What a pity... If it were before, he could have added some "achievements" to the Wangsheng Hall...

But things are different now...

Now, he actually saw shadows of the past Demon War in Liyue...

If you want to retire now... you still have two opportunities.

Looking at the deep sea in front of Liyue Harbor, he slowly closed his eyes.

After going around in circles...I still couldn't get around you in the end.

Chapter 104: Anchoring the Boundary?

Today is definitely the busiest day in Liyue Harbor, with people coming and going in the streets and alleys, and vendors coming and going in an endless stream.

The area around Yujingtai was already crowded with people.

People started queuing here before dawn, including Liyue people and many foreigners.

This time, the ceremony of inviting the immortals is no longer a tourist attraction that "locals won't go to". Almost all the people of Liyue can feel the changes in Liyue in recent times.

The daily cargo throughput of Liyue Port has now reached three or four times that of the past, and the number of foreign tourists is increasing every day. The environment in the entire Liyue has also undergone earth-shaking changes. Even the current escort agencies are forced to develop outside Liyue.

And all of this is inseparable from the creation of the Emperor!

It is the Emperor's great power that makes Liyue even stronger!

The manuscript that Ningguang had previously sent to the storytellers is now firmly believed by the people of Liyue, and only a small number of people who know the inside story know the specific situation.

The Starry Sky Train was happy to be at peace, as it was better than being surrounded at the dock.

The "Emperor" is having a headache right now...

He clearly felt that his strength had increased slightly in recent times... This was due to people's greater faith in him.

If this continues, he might be able to recover to his former peak state within a thousand years, but obviously, this is impossible.

Retirement planning must be changed to a different approach, a... less hurtful approach.

As for Liyue now, if he finds an excuse to leave, he is afraid that other countries will suffer!

Standing alone on the top of Tianheng Mountain, Zhongli, who had already changed into divine attire, was now filled with melancholy.

"Things in the world change, but even a rock cannot be turned..."

Behind him, several immortals from Liyue had been waiting here for a long time.

"Emperor..."

Looking at the "Emperor Rock King" standing at the top, Xiao's eyes were full of complexity.

Do they... really have to be so high-profile?

"That's not like your character."

Liu Yun used the wind to transform into a human form, pushed his glasses, and his eyes were full of confusion.

"Liuyun, don't try to guess the Emperor's intentions."

"Xie Yue, it's been such a long time since we last met, but you haven't changed at all."

"..."

Li Shui shook his head silently, and slowly turned his gaze to the old man who was walking towards him.

"How long has it been since we got together?"

Grandma Ping smiled kindly at everyone.

"A Ping..."

Liuyun looked at Grandma Ping, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

"Alright, alright. Today is a big day for Liyue. Let's hear what the Emperor thinks."

After Grandma Ping's reminder, everyone turned their attention to Morax.

"Everyone... Today is Liyue's ceremony to invite the immortals, but the times are different."

Morax took a step forward, stepping down from the void until he appeared in front of everyone.

"Liyue... and even Teyvat will be undergoing a transformation. I believe you are all more or less aware of the current situation in Liyue."

"..."

"The Emperor is talking about the [Crystal Wall]?"

Lishui pondered for a moment and gave his own answer.

"Yes and no."

Morax shook his head.

"That thing...wasn't it something created by the Emperor?"

Liu Yun was obviously surprised by this place.

"Of course not."

Morax shook his head again.

"This [Crystal Wall] comes from beyond this world, brought here by the Star Train."

Since the people in front of him were all his own people, Morax did not hide his incompetence and told the immortals the information directly.

"Outside...the world?"
