Chapter 247 It's the last seat's face that's lost.
Xu Ning was both shocked and amused by Ning Guang's words.
He never expected that Ningguang had always wanted to imitate the Emperor from Tian Tiezui's storytelling, and now she finally had the chance.
But since the Emperor has already given up Liyue, we can't very well take over the names of the Emperor's moves, can we?
Xu Ning whispered in Ningguang's ear, "Be careful what you say! The Emperor might be watching us from somewhere."
Ningguang looked at Xu Ning with a half-smile and asked, "What? Didn't you say that the Emperor's weapons and techniques were all made up?"
Xu Ning shook his head. "Many of them were found in ancient texts. How could they all be fabrications?"
"Oh?"
Ningguang smiled and said, "Which ancient classic? Let's see if it's in my collection. I'll take a good look around."
Xu Ning tapped the ground, indicating to Ning Guang that her collection of books was about to sink into the sea.
Ningguang looked down from Xu Ning's arms and saw the Jade Pavilion, moving as fast as a meteor, crashing down on Ausel's body and burying it back into the Cloud Sea.
With a soft sigh, Ningguang murmured, "This is probably my biggest investment in Liyue."
Xu Ning understood Ning Guang's meaning; after all, there were no secrets between the two of them anymore.
Xu Ning had informed Ning Guang in advance about the plans that the young master was about to implement, including the appearance of Ausel.
However, the plan to destroy the Jade Pavilion was actually orchestrated by Ningguang.
Xu Ning originally wanted to help Ning Guang move the precious minerals, antiques, and ancient books collected in the Jade Pavilion to his own Hidden Cave in advance.
But Ningguang said she wouldn't take any.
"Since we're going to perform, we should go all the way. As long as we have Mora, it's only a matter of time before we can get another set. If someone with ulterior motives finds out, it won't be good."
These are Ningguang's original words.
However, Xu Ning did indeed put some things away.
Ningguang sent all the confidential documents and reports concerning Liyue's regional planning, business layout, and secrets involving various industries to Xu Ning's room in the Hidden Cave.
Then Bai Xiao made countless fake and real items again and placed them in the Qunyu Pavilion in the same way as before.
If this information is discovered by someone with ulterior motives, and they intend to use it to target Liyue, then they will surely experience the endless hell that Ningguang has prepared for them.
Xu Ning gently kissed Ning Guang's earlobe, which was as beautiful as a jade pendant, and assured her, "Don't worry, I'll get all the things you've lost back for you from a certain guy."
At this moment, the waves beneath their feet gradually calmed down, and the strange phenomenon of dark clouds churning the sky slowly dissipated, and the wind and rain stopped.
Sunlight shone through the clouds, making Xu Ning and Ning Guang, who descended from the sky, appear even more like celestial beings descending to earth.
Xu Ning summoned a gust of wind, propelling the Wind Wings to a swift landing at the Liyue Harbor dock.
A group of immortals had already escorted Ke Qing, Feng Yan, Zhen Hai, and other Thousand Rock soldiers to this place.
As soon as Xu Ning landed, he released the Thousand Rocks Legion soldiers from the Dust Hidden Cave.
Many people were injured in the battle. After thanking the immortals, Keqing and the others immediately organized a team to take everyone for treatment.
Just as Xu Ning walked in front of the immortals, True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng coldly said something.
"From now on, the two of you will be in charge of Liyue, which has been protected by the Emperor for a thousand years. Should I congratulate you?"
Before Xu Ning could speak, Ning Guang frowned and was about to speak.
However, a slightly aged voice came first.
"Liu Yun, there's no need for such a confrontational approach..."
Everyone looked to the side and saw Grandma Ping walking slowly over with her hands behind her back.
"Ningguang destroyed the entire Jade Pavilion for Liyue and suppressed the Whirlpool Demon God back under the Lone Cloud Pavilion. Such a sacrifice deserves praise."
Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun snorted coldly and said, "The effect of the Hundred Taboos Talisman is not permanent; it can only allow Osel to move around temporarily."
"Even without that blow, if He could hold out for a little longer, as long as He cannot break free from the Emperor's seal from back then, He will naturally be suppressed again."
Grandma Ping shook her head and said, "If we delay any longer, and the Vortex Demon God vents his anger on Liyue Harbor, how many more innocent people will suffer this calamity?"
Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun snorted, glared at Xu Ning, and said nothing more.
This glance left Xu Ning feeling somewhat bewildered. Intuitively, he felt that the difficulty Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun was not directed at Ning Guang at all, but rather at him.
Seeing that Liu Yunjiefeng Zhenjun had stopped speaking, Ningguang thanked Granny Ping.
"Fellow immortals, according to records, the Emperor and all of you immortals have protected Liyue for a full three thousand seven hundred years."
"Even now, the mountains, rivers, and land of Liyue remain as solid as a rock, exactly the same as they were a thousand years ago. This is truly an amazing feat."
"But no mortal can live for 3,700 years. Every mortal in Liyue can only live for less than 100 years in the present moment, which is not even as long as a god can sleep for."
"So please don't just focus your protective gaze on this land. I also want you immortals to take a good look at this city and see each and every one of you clearly."
Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun coldly snorted, "So you still have some doubts about how we protect Liyue?"
Xu Ning's head started to ache as soon as she heard Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun speak, fearing that she would clash with Ning Guang again. She quickly stepped forward with a smile and said, "I don't mean to question anything. I just think that the immortals could actually get closer to the mortals of Liyue, like Xiao... uh, like Granny Ping."
Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun sneered, "Then why don't we just move Jueyun Jian to Liyue Harbor? If we can't have peace and quiet, can we still be considered immortals?"
Xu Ning feigned surprise and asked, "Yes, it counts. Just like Granny Ping, who lived directly in Yujingtai."
"And there's Guoba, oh, that's the pet Xiangling has. I've even met Emperor... cough cough, Mr. Zhongli greeted it!"
"Also, I heard Xiangling say that she once saw two mysterious guests who frequently came to Liyue Harbor to play with Guoba. One of them was described as looking very much like the transformed appearance of the Moonlit Sword Master..."
"Cough cough..."
Lord Xiaoyue Zhuyang interrupted Xu Ning with a cough, "Forget it, forget it. I haven't been to Liyue Harbor in so long, I almost don't recognize it anymore. Who knows what it will be like in many years? I might as well go back, I might as well go back..."
True Lord Lishan Dieshui nodded repeatedly, "Xiaoyue is right, let's go now!"
The two hurriedly flew away on the clouds. Liu Yun Borrows the Wind True Lord caught up with the two immortals with a flap of his wings and said angrily, "I knew you two often sneaked out here. What's the deal with that pet? I don't know anything about it. Explain yourself before you leave!"
The crisis has finally passed.
However, the instigator of this crisis was leaning against the inner wall of the Northern Bank with a displeased expression, and said to the lady in front of him, "So you had already received the Queen's instructions and could easily get the Heart of the Rock God, but you just sit here drinking tea and watching me work hard all day long, huh!"
The woman sneered, "I think you're just enjoying yourself! Since you arrived in Liyue, you've never consulted me about the Heart of the Geo Archon, and you've just been carrying out this dangerous plan on your own."
The young master angrily said, "You knew perfectly well what was going on, yet you watched me being completely fooled. You're the one who's disgraced the Queen and the Fools."
The woman gracefully shook her index finger. "No, no, no, it's just that you, the lowest-ranking executive, have lost face."
The young master suppressed his anger and coldly said to the lady, "Your despicable behavior of not sharing information with your colleagues will eventually come back to haunt you. Also, Mr. Zhongli, or rather, Morax, the Geo Archon of Liyue, don't you have anything to say?"
