"Famas is very powerful. He is not interested in Seven Stars...it's his style!"
"But Traveler and I have been envious... no, no, we have admired Lord Ningguang for a long time!"
Paimon stretched out his finger and hummed. Then he immediately looked at Ning Guang with eyes shining with the color of Mora. He also wanted to fly to the Tianquan star, but was pulled away by Ying who was disgusted and embarrassed.
Come back.
"Not long ago, we also encountered Yuhengxing..."
Ying tentatively spoke, but Ningguang answered with a smile: "Near the terminal?"
Paimon glanced around the Jade Pavilion suspiciously, and after confirming that there was no facility to see far away on this fairy island, he pouted and asked, "Isn't Master Ningguang always peeking from the sky?" "Haha...it's hard to peek from such a long distance, right?"
Ningguang pursed her lips and smiled, shaking her head slightly.
"Just rely on Qixing's eyes and ears. I am very interested in you, and it is natural for me to pay attention."
He stared at the legendary Tianquan Ningguang with burning eyes. He seemed not as difficult to communicate with as expected, and he was not as self-possessed as other businessmen. His calm appearance inexplicably gave people a sense of trust.
"Keqing told us that Qixing will not harm the emperor, let alone shirk responsibility."
Ying relaxed slightly and looked at Ning Guang with a scrutinizing gaze.
"Well, you have a lot of contacts with immortals, so it's natural that you don't trust us. I invite you here this time just to clear up some misunderstandings.
"Seven Stars has not yet obtained any strong evidence, and the Winter Kingdom's military strength cannot be underestimated, so it cannot be used as a diplomatic argument. At this time, there are undercurrents building up, and the enemy is hidden and we are clear. The best way is to remain unchanged in response to changes.
”
Ning Guang calmly walked to the edge of Qunyu Pavilion and looked at the turbulent Liyue Harbor below: "You must have heard of the Demon God War, right?"
"I just know some stories."
Ying didn't know what the relationship between the Demon God War and Liyue was, but she only occasionally heard Wendy talk about it, and the identity of Famas as the tyrant in the Demon God War.
They know that the Demon God War happened a long time ago, when the order of the Seven Kingdoms was not yet stable, and various demon gods fought to determine the seven ruling powers in the world, triggering a turbulent and fierce battle that shook the world.
Immortals are numerous, demons are everywhere, and humans and other creatures are victims of the war between demons and gods.
In this tragic war, many demon gods fell. According to records, there are still many defeated demon gods hiding outside the continent of Teyvat, while others are sealed in the ruins, such as existences like Tvarin. "Since you know some of the story, I'll keep it short."
"After the Demon God War ended, there were only seven victors left on the continent of Teyvat. They established kingdoms and city-states on the remains of the losers, and began the era of the Seven Gods."
Ningguang stepped toward the southeast side of the Jade Pavilion, motioning for Ying and Paimon to follow.
"Have you seen Guyun Pavilion? That is not a natural landform, but a huge rock spear dropped by the emperor during the war."
"Under the rock spear, the emperor's defeated generals were suppressed, those former demon gods who failed to obtain the position of the Seven Gods."
Looking at Guyun Pavilion shrouded in clouds and mist in the distance, Ying suddenly remembered that Famas was also a loser in the Demon God War, and also had the title of war lord, but she didn't seem to understand this guy at all.
Wendy, Dulin, Tevalin, Master Diluc...
They all seem to know Famas’ identity and story, but they just don’t tell them.
"Maybe you don't want the experience of failure to be mentioned again?"
Ying, who was thinking wildly, almost lost his mind. After confirming that Ningguang didn't know Famas's identity, he continued to listen to the explanation of Lord Tianquan.
"Not only will the demon gods pass away, but even the seven mortal rulers will change over the past two thousand years. The departure of the emperor is an unimaginable disaster for Liyue, but the seven god system of Teyvat... will not collapse."
"The next rock god will appear sooner or later, but how can we forget the emperor? By then, the relationship between Liyue people and immortal gods will definitely be different from the past."
"Even in the new era, Liyue Qixing is still the emperor's old citizen. The crime of assassinating the emperor... Do you think we can afford it?"
There was a bit of worry in Ningguang's words. Although they had no motive to murder the emperor, others may not necessarily think so.
When the next rock god appears, it will definitely be different from the past.
What will be the status of Qixing then? What is Liyue’s future?
This is something Ningguang has been thinking about.
During the ceremony of sending immortals, she was more shocked and flustered than anyone else when the emperor's magic fell.
But the responsibility of being a Tianquan star made Ningguang calm down quickly, and he dealt with the aftermath in an orderly manner, released false news, turned the target on the fools, mobilized the Qianyan Army to defend Liyue, and prevented the belated immortals from raiding the port...
…
"The ancestors reclaimed wasteland, smelted ore, opened up shipping routes, and established city-states, all of which were inseparable from the emperor's oracle. For thousands of years, the rock god has guided the common people from ignorance to enlightenment, and they have now achieved the grand scene in Liyue."
"I believe that today, every Liyue person has his or her own Prince Yan. Even today, when the god is no longer here, we still miss the emperor who led Liyue to where it is today."
Ningguang spoke with relief. These days, she never dared to say these things in front of the other seven stars, for fear of putting pressure on the colleagues she spent time with day and night.
The business policy that was originally decided by the emperor now needs to be fully responsible for Ningguang.
Every day she has to deal with countless documents.
Approval, rejection, seal, notice, explanation.
If it weren't for the help of the General Affairs Department and secretary Gan Yu, Ningguang would have been overwhelmed by the heavy workload.
After all, she is not a hybrid of human and immortal, she is essentially just a businessman with "some tricks".
"I believe Liyue Qixing would not do such a thing. Besides, the emperor is so strong, who can be his opponent?"
Seeing Ningguang's sudden fatigue, Paimon quickly waved his hands to comfort him.
During her trip to Liyue, she heard a lot of legends about the Emperor Yanwang. Most of them were stories about the Emperor slaying demons and protecting Liyue.

While in Mondstadt, when people mentioned the wind god Barbatos, they mostly talked about stealing wine from a winery, using the wind to lift the skirts of nuns in the church, and eating and drinking for free at the Deer Hunter restaurant. p>
No matter how you look at it, Yan Shen is much more powerful than Wendy, that guy who doesn’t do anything serious!
"Thank you for trusting us so much."
Ning Guang calmed down his tired look and looked at Paimon with a smile.
After saying this, her mood improved a lot.
"But, why do you want to hide the ancestor's method?"
After listening to Ningguang's words, Ying also relaxed, but she was still puzzled by some of Qixing's actions.
"Haha, something happened suddenly at Yujingtai that day, and I was unprepared. You were present at the time, and you should have seen that Qixing's enemies have long been lurking in Liyue Port. If we don't take action, we will be at a disadvantage. "It is necessary to hide the ancestral dharma. Through this, I can turn light into darkness and stop with stillness.
There is a reason for Ningguang's actions, and it was also a last resort to arrest Famas, Ying and others, so Famas jumped out to fight her.
The fools who were affected by this finally couldn't help spreading rumors that Qixing had assassinated the emperor, and wanted to force Qixing to tell the truth.
They want to find their ancestor Fa Shen, which is also the master's ultimate goal.
"But who is the enemy?"
The series of messages made Paimon a little confused.
"Traveler, what do you think?"
Ning Guang said, turning his gaze to the girl who lowered her head and thought.
"Could it be him?"
Ying held her chin, and after thinking for a while, she suddenly raised her head. The grinning face of Dada Duck appeared in her mind, and her eyes couldn't help but look in the direction of Beiguo Bank.
"Correct answer."
Ning Guang also noticed Ying's gaze and nodded seriously.
On the contrary, Paimeng was confused when he heard this. He waved his little fist with an aggrieved face and asked: "Ying! What kind of riddle are you Ningguang doing?"
The girl was about to answer, but Ningguang suddenly interrupted.
"Okay, although the scenery outside is nice, the wind at high altitude is still a bit strong. You two, the palace is ready to receive guests. Please come with me."
Ying and Paimon looked at each other and entered the Jade Pavilion under the leadership of Ningguang.
