Chapter 237
"It doesn't matter."
Lisa shook her head with a smile.
"Relying on message delivery is too slow, and Liyue and Mondstadt are not far apart. Even at an ordinary person's pace, it would take about a week."
"Cultivators have their own ways of delivering messages."
"Once you pass the assessment and apprentice at Shushan, you will naturally get a disciple flying sword."
"By then, even if you don't know the Sword Riding Technique, you can quickly return to Mondstadt City through the disciple flying sword to deliver the news."
"In any case, you can catch up."
"As for the issue of passage between Mondstadt and Liyue, once you apprentice at Shushan, Lady Ningguang will be your fellow disciple, so that will be easy to discuss."
Upon hearing this, Jean breathed a sigh of relief, naturally believing what Lisa said deeply.
Immediately, she said:
"Since that's the case, I have to prepare to visit Lady Ningguang later."
"This matter is not urgent."
Lisa smiled and pointed not far away.
"Look, who is that?"
Following the direction Lisa pointed, Jean was stunned for a moment, then said with some joy:
"Lord Wendi, Elder Alice! It's been a long time!"
As soon as the words fell, Wendi immediately made a nervous gesture to keep quiet, looked around sneakily, and seeing no one else, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"So close, so close. If the old man and Xiao heard, they would toss me around again."
Jean was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, she said apologetically:
"Sorry, Head Seat Wendi, Elder Alice, I forgot……"
"Ehe! It doesn't matter!"
Wendi waved his hand and said with a smile:
"Actually, there is no need to be so harsh. It's mainly because the people in the Law Enforcement Hall are too stubborn."
As soon as the words fell, Elder Alice looked at Wendi with a strange gaze.
"Did you forget that I am an Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall?"
"……"
Wendi was silent for a moment, gave a 'haha', and changed the subject stiffly.
"Um, long time no see, Jean. You finally came to pay respects at the mountain. By the way, did you bring Dvalin?"
Upon hearing this, Diluc couldn't help but complain:
"Not to mention the stiff technique of changing the subject, do you really not care about the situation in Mondstadt at all?"
"Ehe! I trust that Jean can take good care of Mondstadt."
Wendi took the Serenitea Pot handed over by Lisa and checked Dvalin's situation.
It seemed that because the spiritual energy in the Shushan Serenitea Pot was abundant, Dvalin was sleeping honestly now.
Wendi also breathed a sigh of relief quietly and looked up at everyone.
"You saw the Sect Master. What was the result?"
Everyone subconsciously looked at Lumine and Paimon.
Jean sighed in her heart and explained the situation just now slowly.
Upon hearing this, Wendi also looked at Lumine and Paimon with some surprise, and after a moment, shook his head and said:
"Truly bizarre, geniuses keep popping up one after another. No wonder the Sect Master has always said that Teyvat is a gathering place for geniuses."
The more one cultivates immortality, the more one can understand the power of these special constitutions and talents.
Even Wendi, a native Teyvat person, couldn't help but feel it was outrageous in his heart.
"So, you are going to the Heart-Questioning Array for assessment, right? With the old man supervising?"
Wendi suddenly discovered a blind spot and hurriedly urged:
"Then hurry up and go. We will accompany you to take a look and watch the fun. We didn't see Bai Zhu's assessment last time."
"Don't waste time. If you are late, the old man will have something to say."
"Really, ever since he managed the Law Enforcement Hall, the old man has become more and more rigid in his conduct, with a basket full of rules, and is heartless……"
Wendi muttered. It seemed that he had a great resentment toward the Law Enforcement Hall managed by Seeing Zhongli.
Lisa was a bit suspicious, and Elder Alice on the side said softly:
"The night before last, he went to the spiritual field to secretly pick herbs to soak in wine, and was caught red-handed by Seeing Zhongli, who deducted 30,000 of his contribution points."
"Wendi is feeling the pain now."
Jean and the others realized, and their mood toward Wendi's back was a bit complicated.
This guy, he doesn't change his nature wherever he goes, and……
He doesn't listen when told, and doesn't change when punished.
I'm afraid the Law Enforcement Hall's annual performance is all covered by Wendi.
……
At the Heart-Questioning Array.
Everyone walked very quickly, and fortunately, they didn't arrive late.
They hadn't arrived for long before Seeing Zhongli also arrived.
He first glanced at Wendi, then fixed his gaze on Jean and the others.
"Greetings, Head Seat Seeing Zhongli."
Lisa was the first to cup her hands in salute, and the others then reacted and greeted him.
Quietly observing Seeing Zhongli, if the aura on Wendi and Elder Alice was full of freedom and ease,
Seeing Zhongli and Xiao were very similar, with an aura of seriousness and solemnity permeating their bodies.
I suppose it was influenced by the duties of the Law Enforcement Hall.
But precisely because of this, everyone felt from the bottom of their hearts that Seeing Zhongli looked stronger.
Although this was also a fact.
Seeing Zhongli raised his hand slightly and said slowly:
"No need for formalities, start the assessment as soon as possible."
"Although I am here to supervise under the Sect Master's order, I am only responsible for guarding you so that you don't get trapped in the Heart-Questioning Array and unable to extricate yourselves."
"Everything here depends on yourselves."
"The Heart-Questioning Array has nine levels in total. Since you can get the Sect Master's permission to participate in the assessment now, your talent doesn't need to be tested; you only need to pass the Heart-Questioning Array."
After saying this, Seeing Zhongli flashed his body and flew to the cushion on the high platform opposite the Heart-Questioning Array to sit cross-legged.
"Ehe, the old man is serious during work hours. He has no opinion of you; you will understand later."
Afraid that Jean and the others would think too much, Wendi explained.
Jean nodded and said softly:
"We can understand. The content of the Law Enforcement Hall's work must be rigorous. Head Seat Seeing Zhongli is responsible."
"By the way, Head Seat Seeing Zhongli is……"
Lumine asked curiously, and Wendi nodded with a smile.
"That's right, the old man is the Geo Archon, but he is going to abdicate and intends to cultivate immortality wholeheartedly, and I……"
Wendi paused, but didn't finish speaking, but Diluc and the others already had guesses in their hearts.
If it were before, such things would have to be pondered over, but now……
With immortality cultivation before them, who cares if Wendi abdicates or not!
Suddenly, several streams of light came from the sky, and Ningguang and the others had also arrived.
After greeting Wendi and the others, Ningguang looked at Jean with a smile.
"Jean, you have finally come to cultivate. It's earlier than I imagined."
"Ningguang……"
Jean was stunned for a moment, looking at the immortal energy that was not released on Ningguang, feeling a bit dazed.
"I wrote to you only a few weeks ago. I didn't expect that in just less than a month, you would have such achievements."
"I was just lucky to apprentice at Shushan."
Ningguang shook her head and smiled:
