Chapter 24

Zhongli saw their thoughts, but he didn't say it out loud.

Before he could be sure for the time being, he would not have any evaluation of this, neither believing nor denying it.

Just pretend not to know.

Otherwise, what if it ends up being a waste of effort?

"In addition to this, there are Jiang Yan’s various means, such as controlling swords, manipulating the lightning of heaven and earth, controlling golden light, driving the five elements..."

"These seem to fit the cultivation widely spread among the people."

"Therefore, no matter what, we can temporarily think that cultivation does exist."

Zhongli made the final summary about cultivation and added:

"My evaluation in my heart is the same as Liuyun’s, both are eighty percent credible."

Hearing this, Liuyun looked at Shaoyue triumphantly, but the latter didn't care about Liuyun’s eyes.

Instead, he said with some worry:

"Emperor, what about the remaining twenty percent? Could it be that you think Jiang Yan will harm Liyue?"

This made Xiao and the others nervous.

From the current point of view, with the means Jiang Yan has shown, if he wants to harm Liyue, I am afraid Zhongli can't stop him.

"Harm?"

Zhongli gave a light laugh, but his peripheral vision looked at Ganyu, who was looking cute on the side.

"No, on the contrary, I think Jiang Yan will love the house and its crow, and will help Liyue, and even help Liyue."

This made everyone confused.

Especially Ganyu, who didn't know why, always felt that when Zhongli said these things, he was always looking at her.

Zhongli felt emotional in his heart.

People often say that Morax has no heart, but even rocks can turn into dragons. He has lived for six thousand years, how could he have no heart?

It’s just that he gave his heart to Liyue, and there was no room for anything else.

But not involving romantic feelings doesn't mean he doesn't understand.

Having lived for more than six thousand years, what hasn't he seen?

No matter how strong Jiang Yan is, his bone age is only twenty-something.

Using the cultivation system, he is a unique genius, that is, an existence that will inevitably ascend to immortality.

But...

The common problem of geniuses is that they are too young and easily disturbed by worldly emotions.

Zhongli didn't think Jiang Yan could have no feelings for Ganyu.

Since that’s the case, there’s no need to worry about Jiang Yan harming Liyue.

On the contrary, if everything goes well, Jiang Yan will also help with all his might, using the secret method of cultivation to help Liyue take off.

"Since that’s the case, what is the remaining twenty percent in your heart, Emperor?"

Lishui asked patiently, and after Zhongli pondered for a moment, he sighed and said:

"Based on the principle of universality, what Jiang Yan said is too grand and ethereal."

"No matter what, we in Teyvat are ultimately frogs in a well, unable to confirm whether what he said is true or false."

"Therefore, I dare not trust him completely."

19. Zhongli: Alice, it’s me, the golden big dragon.

"The Emperor and I thought of the same thing."

Liuyun’s mouth curled up, seeming a little proud that she could be on the same frequency as Zhongli.

"Let’s not talk about Jiang Yan’s theory of cultivation, just talk about this Shushan..."

"We exist in Teyvat, and we are born and raised here all our lives, and finally die here."

"If we can't step out of Teyvat, how dare we judge whether Shushan exists or not with eyes outside the world?"

"This is not Jiang Yan’s problem, but our problem of vision."

"If there is an existence that has traveled through many worlds, what Jiang Yan said might be judged."

"In the end, the Great Luo and the like that Jiang Yan mentioned are too... in short, I think this kind of existence is very ethereal."

Liuyun just sighed.

But this sigh gave Zhongli a hint.

His eyes brightened, and Zhongli put down his teacup.

"Liuyun, you reminded me. We don't know the truth of the world, but I know one person who will definitely know these things."

"Who?"

Looking at Shaoyue and the others who were confused, Zhongli didn't say anything, just took out a wonderful doll from his portable space.

He sighed, and it could be seen that Zhongli didn't really want to contact the other party. If Liuyun and the others could see the face under Zhongli’s hood.

They would probably be scared.

Zhongli was actually somewhat conflicted as never before.

But considering Liyue, Zhongli finally squeezed it.

"Beep beep, this is Alice’s dedicated line. The beautiful and elegant Ms. Alice is busy. If you are busy, please hang up."

"Ms. Alice will find time to reply to you in three hundred years, please wait patiently."

Liuyun and the others suddenly realized.

Klee’s mother, the veteran of the Hexenzirkel, Alice.

An existence that has been rooted in the border of Teyvat for years and has even traveled to other worlds many times.

When she came to Liyue back then, it was Zhongli who personally entertained her.

Later, I don't know what happened, but Zhongli came back with a black face.

He ordered that no existence named Alice would be allowed to travel within Liyue in the future.

It is rumored...

Alice seemed to have used the kitchen pot in Wangshu Inn to make a bomb, which is why Zhongli later had Xiao stationed in Wangshu Inn for a long time.

Besides that, there seemed to be some magical achievements, such as wanting to experiment with a Hilichurl perpetual motion machine in a certain ruin.

Accidentally caused a small earthquake in Liyue.

But these, I think, are not the reasons for Zhongli’s black face.

According to fake news that couldn't be fake, someone saw Alice’s bomb, and it smeared Zhongli’s face...

A few pieces of golden scales were broken.

"Beep beep..."

The repeated words sounded, and Zhongli’s face became darker and darker.

Liuyun didn't know why, and said softly:

"Emperor, since Ms. Alice is not here, why not..."

Zhongli sighed and said in a deep voice:

"Alright, stop playing, Alice. This is the dedicated line you gave me. Only I can call it. I know you are listening."

The mechanical-like voice stuttered slightly, and then continued to sound.

"Beep beep, password error, please state the name of the dedicated line correctly."

Zhongli’s face became darker and darker, and even black energy appeared behind him.

He knew it, every time he communicated with Alice, it would aggravate the erosion!

"I have something serious to find you!"

"Beep beep, you can't link the communication without saying the password."

These, Liuyun and the others couldn't understand, this was clearly Alice speaking herself.

They wanted to reprimand a few words for disrespecting the Emperor, but thinking of Alice’s identity, that was the God of War on the border of Teyvat that even Zhongli had to treat with courtesy.

Everyone still pretended not to hear.

Zhongli took a deep breath and muttered a few words in a low voice.

"Beep beep, I didn't hear it. If you don't say it loudly, Lord Alice will not respond."

The black energy behind Zhongli was almost covering the sky and the sun. If it could be concretized, I am afraid it would not be weaker than Jiang Yan’s tribulation cloud.

Grinding his teeth, Zhongli said with gritted teeth: ===== CHAPTER 32 =====
