Supreme Bishop of Fontaine

"I have always hidden the Classic of Mountains and Seas from the world, thinking that this would be the best way to protect the people. Now it seems that I was wrong. I actually let the people of the Classic of Mountains and Seas miss such an opportunity to become immortals."

"If it weren't for you, Master, the Classic of Mountains and Seas would have paid an incredibly painful price, whether it was the Demon God War that lasted for over a thousand years or the disaster that devastated the entire continent of Teyvat five hundred years ago. The people of the Classic of Mountains and Seas have only gratitude for you, Master, and never a single complaint."

Long Hua remained silent on this, only calmly asking, "Now that Morax is dead, who is in charge of Liyue now?"

"It's the Liyue Seven Stars."

"Xuanqing, go talk to the Liyue Seven Stars about opening the Shanhaijing Mountain Gate and placing it under the jurisdiction of Liyue Harbor."

"Master Sect Leader?" Xuan Qing widened his eyes in surprise.

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas exists to protect the people, and the Xuanlong Gate exists to educate all living beings. Neither exists to serve as a prison. The people should be able to pursue a better life, a healthier body, and a longer life."

Long Huaqing said calmly:

"They don't have to, but I can't take away the opportunity to pursue these things."

"...Xuanqing knows."

Xuanqing bowed slightly.

"Let's go now. The sooner the better. After all, this is a big deal and I'm afraid it will take quite some time to prepare."

"Yes, Lord Sect Master."

Xuanqing walked away, and Longhua stopped and watched her leave. Then, he turned around and looked indifferently at a girl standing by a stall at the back.

"You've been following me for so long, why don't you come up and see me?"

The girl and the emergency food looked at each other, then walked over with embarrassment.

"Sorry, we're just a little curious."

Naturally, the girl is a traveler, and the emergency food is... emergency food.

Axue completed the tasks one by one in the Lantern Festival plot, and then walked to the port according to the task prompts, and saw the two girls whose names were still unknown and appeared in the animated short film at the beginning of the plot.

"Wow, that girl is so beautiful! And she seems to have such a mysterious aura."

Paimon said, shaking his finger.

"Let's follow them and see. They look like they're from Liyue, but I've never seen them before. I'm a little curious about who they are."

"Isn't this a bit bad?"

"Tracking? I'm the best at it."

Axue directly chose the second one, and then followed quietly, walking slowly while listening to the conversation between the two girls.

Axue quickly realized that the Shanhaijing area should be the new map of Liyue, and when the Shanhaijing area was opened, it should be the time when the cheongsam girl entered the card pool.

"Hello, are you an immortal?"

"Yes." Facing Paimon's question, the girl nodded calmly: "In the past, the immortals and people of Liyue called me the Fairy of Mountains and Seas. However, now I am more known as the leader of the Xuanlong Sect. Few people mention my immortal title anymore, so you can just call me Longhua."

Just as the players were talking to the mysterious cheongsam girl.

The other side, not within the game camera.

"This golden shrimp ball is so delicious, but the ingredients are a little lacking. Ye, please sell the crystal shrimp to Liyue as soon as possible. I want to eat it during the next Lantern Festival."

"Compared to this method, I think it would be better to just lure this chef to Fontaine."

Funina and Ye were eating heartily and seriously thinking about how to lure Xiangling to Fontaine.

Well, after postponing several trials for a few days and pushing all the work to Navilette, Ye secretly stole Funina out and took her to visit Liyue's Lantern Festival.

Chapter 54: Report to Lady Finina - Part

"Xiangling, are you coming to Fontainebleau?"

Sitting in Wanmin Hall, Ye directly extended an invitation to Xiangling.

"Huh?" Xiangling looked shocked. "Going to Fontainebleau? Why?"

"Of course, it's so that Lord Water God can enjoy your cooking every day. I can support you in opening the largest Liyue restaurant in Fontaine."

"Lord Water God? Mr. Ye, you really know how to joke."

Xiangling couldn't help but smile.

"Although I do have some confidence in my cooking skills, cooking for a god is really too exaggerated."

"That's not an exaggeration. Lord Water God will definitely like your food very much."

"That's right, that's right."

Furninna nodded repeatedly.

"The dishes you cook are so delicious. I...Lord Water God will really like them. I will have people go to your place every day to prepare them."

Xiangling was very happy to be praised like this, but she still thought that the two people were simply praising her cooking skills.

After all, he is the God of Water, a god like the Rock King, and one of the Seven Rulers of the Earthly World. I am just a mortal. How could I possibly cook for a god?

Seeing this, Funina had no choice but to watch Xiangling turn around and go back to the kitchen with helplessness on her face. She couldn't help but look disappointed. After all, she really couldn't reveal her identity as the Water God in other countries.

"Lady Fu Nina, don't worry. I have already made a plan on how to lure Xiangling to Fontaine."

Fu Nina immediately looked at Ye with vigilance: "Don't let Wanmintang go bankrupt and make them homeless."

"…………What kind of image do I have in your mind?"

"Ahem." Funina coughed awkwardly twice. "I'm just giving you a heads up. After all, you're really..."

"I have always been a pacifist who is gentle and kind."

Fu Nina looked at Ye with a dazed expression: "Why do I think you don't seem to be lying?"

Ye looked at her in confusion: "Of course I am telling the truth. If you don't believe me, go to Fontaine and ask around to see if I have always been gentle and kind."

"........."

Finina covered her face with her left hand, lowered her head, and remained silent for a while. Finally, she couldn't bear to break Ye's beautiful fantasy, so she chose to change the subject.

"Come to think of it, I haven't asked you yet, why did you suddenly do such a thing? You took me from Fontaine... ahem, brought me to Liyue in a flash. Shouldn't you explain it?"

Funina was almost frightened before.

Of course, don't get me wrong, she wasn't talking about being frightened by Ye suddenly breaking into the room and taking her away, but that she was frightened by the fact that she almost mistook reality for a dream.

When she saw Ye enter the room silently, she really thought she was dreaming, so she closed her eyes and prepared to start today's stress-relieving dream - but she was picked up by Princess Ye and flew all the way from Fontainebleau to Liyue for a journey in the sky.

After being in a daze for a while on the way, Funina finally realized that she was not dreaming at all and almost screamed out of fright.

so far so good.

so far so good.

No, I must be cautious and careful in the future, and never treat reality as a dream again.

Damn, dreaming too realistically is stress-relieving but it’s really not a good thing!

Not knowing what Funina was thinking, Ye replied lightly, "Of course, I came here to film a movie."

"Filming?"

After hearing Ye's reply, Funina tilted her head, her face full of question marks.

"The fourth episode of 'Report to Lady Furninna'."

"Where's the camera?"

Furninna looked back and forth.

“The cameras are always there and can start filming at any time.”

"...Ye, who are we filming this for?"

“For the audience to see.”

"Audience? Where's the audience? What's the point of showing it to the audience?"

Before, Funina never asked any more questions because she believed Ye. Since Ye said that this might be a way to solve the prophecy, she believed it.

But now so much time has passed and she hasn't seen any results. Funina really doesn't know whether Ye's unknown plan has made any progress.

So, Funina asked now.

If she could know Ye's plan, she might be able to help.

In response, Ye just looked at her calmly, and then said lightly: "Lady Funina, this show is for the audience in another world."

"another world?"

Finina slowly widened her eyes.

"I made everything about the Teyvat continent into a game in that world, an internet game adapted from a true story."

Fortunately, Fontaine Academy of Sciences also developed a computer, and Funina is a loyal player of Genshin Impact, so Funina instantly understood what Ye meant.

"Is there any point in doing this?"

Finina is not a fool. Rather, she is much smarter than anyone Ye has ever met in this world. Anyone who thinks she is a fool is a real fool.

Finina and Fukaros are originally one. The divine Fukaros has demonstrated wisdom that is enough to change the world. So, as a separated personality, would Finina's wisdom be worse than Fukaros'?

of course not.

If she didn't have enough wisdom, she wouldn't have been able to play the role of the Water God for five hundred years and remain as steady as a rock. That can't be achieved just by relying on acting skills and the ability to withstand pressure. It also requires great wisdom that can see through the world and people's hearts.

In fact, during the first hundred years after she succeeded to the throne of the God of Water, Furnina's wisdom and intelligence were recognized by the entire continent of Teyvat. Those hundred years were the period when Furnina had not yet completely handed over power to Ye and Navilette.

Even after she completely gave up her power and stopped being in charge, no one questioned Furninna's wisdom.

Even Villette, the innocent outsider, knew very well that Furninna's true nature was not as exaggerated as she appeared.

——Funina’s IQ started to decline in the past few decades.

Five hundred years of non-stop performances had exhausted Funina, her mind tense to the point of being only held together by the last thread. The wear and tear of time and the increasing pressure had caused her thinking ability to gradually decline.

The originally perfect performance gradually became imperfect, and the eyes that could see through people's hearts could no longer watch others as they used to... But maybe it was because Ye said that he had a way to solve the prophecy, Ye felt that in the past few months, Funina seemed to have gradually recovered her previous state.

The pressure was relieved and the spirit was improved. When Ye stole Funina out last night, he didn't even see Funina crying. Instead, she was lying on the bed with a calm face.

After seeing Ye, she even closed her eyes very calmly, without any panic or questioning. She performed the Water God's self-confidence and composure perfectly, making Ye seem to see the former Funina again... He couldn't help but want to throw all the work back to her.

Facing such a Funina, Ye felt that he still needed to answer her questions seriously. After all, it would be difficult to get away with it if he lied.

"Is there any point in doing this?"

Facing such a question from Funina, Ye answered seriously:

"Doing so will resolve the prophecy."

"Why can the prophecy be solved?"

"Because I made Teyvat into a game in another world."

Finina narrowed her eyes fiercely: "...So why make Teyvat into a game in another world?"

"Because doing so would resolve the prophecy."

"So why can the prophecy be solved?"

"Because I made Teyvat into a game in another world."

"So why would turning Teyvat into a game in another world resolve the prophecy?"

“Because doing so would resolve the prophecy.”

After asking this question, Funina spoke in unison with Ye.

After she finished speaking, she took a deep breath: "Ye, you've lost half a year's salary, and your bonus is gone too."

Ye's expression remained unchanged: "As long as Lady Funina is happy."

Having said this, he handed the script to Funina.

"Okay, Lady Funina, let's eat and take pictures at the same time."

Furninna snatched the script in a bad mood, opened it and took a look, then raised her eyebrows.

"Shanhai Xianji...why are you suddenly mentioning her?"

After thinking about it, Funina finally remembered who the Fairy of Mountains and Seas was. Two hundred years ago, she had read a page of information about the Fairy of Mountains and Seas, who was the fairy who only existed in Liyue's oldest myths and legends.
