Chapter 389

He still had to manage her.

Immediately, Hu Tao felt a bit depressed again.

"Regarding the time for holding the Rite of Descension, discuss it among yourselves; once you've decided, just tell me."

"However, try to make it as soon as possible."

Zhongli urged Ningguang and the others again, making Ningguang smile bitterly.

Anyone who didn't know would think Liyue was some dirty thing that everyone feared.

After arranging things for Ningguang, Zhongli looked at Tartaglia, who had been watching the show from beginning to end.

Immediately, Tartaglia felt a chill in his heart.

Everyone also noticed the eye contact between Zhongli and Tartaglia and couldn't help but feel curious.

After a long silence, Tartaglia said somewhat awkwardly:

"Head Seat Zhongli, does this matter have anything to do with me?"

Zhongli nodded slightly.

"Your mission to Liyue."

"The Gnosis?"

Tartaglia pursed his lips, only then remembering that his main purpose for coming to Liyue was the Gnosis.

Just...

Was there really any need to collect this thing now?

It wasn't like the Tsaritsa didn't know about the cultivation of immortality; before he came to visit the mountain today, the Tsaritsa had almost arrived in Liyue.

This showed that in the Tsaritsa's eyes, the matter of cultivating immortality was far more important than the Gnosis plan.

And now, after personally experiencing the cultivation of immortality, Tartaglia had completely thrown the Gnosis collection plan to the back of his mind.

How strong could that Gnosis thing be?

Was it worth them giving up the cultivation of immortality to stubbornly pursue the Gnosis plan?

Tartaglia was now at the middle stage of Essence Refinement and Qi Transformation, practicing the Dragon Head Peak's Finger Profound Scripture, and possessing the Inverted Blood Demon Blade and the Imperial Sword Art.

For the next period, he also wanted to strive to exchange for the Fierce Blood Blade.

By then, as long as he reached the peak of Essence Refinement and Qi Transformation, with the blessing of this body of techniques and magic treasures.

He was confident that, even if he couldn't hang the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles and beat her, he could at least give her a slap.

Moreover, he would acquire more techniques later.

This Gnosis thing...

Was there still any need to collect it?

Give him some time, and he could complete the Tsaritsa's great wish alone.

If the resources of the Gnosis plan could be exchanged for contribution points and directly obtain the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Beating Whip.

The Tsaritsa would work hard to revitalize the National Destiny and turn around to decree a righteous god who existed at the Refinement of Spirit and Return to Void stage.

Could the Heavenly Principles still threaten Snezhnaya?

The Gnosis plan, what need was there to execute this thing!

Instead of wasting that time pondering the Gnosis, it would be better to cultivate properly.

Believing that even if the Tsaritsa knew about this, she would think the same; Tartaglia could cultivate immortality, so naturally, he would prioritize it.

"If I remember correctly..."

Jean looked thoughtfully at Venti, who was bored on the side, and said softly:

"Head Seat Venti's Gnosis was also given to the Lady Harbinger by Lisa, right?"

"Ehe!"

Venti shrugged, not denying it.

That Gnosis thing was originally a chicken rib, and now it was even more so.

What was the use of that thing?

Zhongli said softly:

"Originally, these matters were agreed upon privately between me and the Tsaritsa, and shouldn't have been said openly, but given the current situation, there is truly no need to hide it."

"A long time ago, the Tsaritsa found me and spoke of her Gnosis plan, and I happened to want to resign, and the Gnosis was useless to me."

"I signed a contract with the Tsaritsa to end all contracts."

"Once the matter is accomplished, I will return Liyue to humans, and the Gnosis will also be handed over to her."

After hearing Zhongli's explanation, everyone suddenly realized.

So these two guys, Zhongli and Venti, both knew about the Tsaritsa's Gnosis plan.

And just helped the Tsaritsa out?

The transactions between gods are truly strange.

Ningguang and the others shook their heads in their hearts and expressed no opinion on this.

The Gnosis is just an external magic organ for gods; compared to cultivating immortality, it is nothing.

Since that's the case, there's no need to say anything more.

How to handle it is his own business.

Tartaglia realized something and looked at Zhongli with complex eyes.

"So, from the very beginning, the Gnosis was destined to end up in Her Majesty's hands?"

Zhongli nodded slightly.

"Basically, yes, but the premise is to help me complete the final contract."

"Then why did Her Majesty send me here..."

Tartaglia had a bad premonition in his heart.

The next moment, Zhongli slowly raised his hand, and a slightly dim Gnosis appeared in his palm.

"I didn't pay much attention to the Gnosis while cultivating earlier, and almost let it shatter."

"The divine power within it dissipated quite a bit, but I solidified it with true essence, so the Gnosis shouldn't have any problems."

"You can take it away."

After saying that, Zhongli didn't care whether Tartaglia was willing or not and threw the Gnosis directly to him.

Now, it was a real hot potato.

Only, this hot potato was now in Tartaglia's hands.

Holding this Gnosis, clearly this was his main purpose for coming to Liyue before.

Now that he got it easily, he should be happy.

But Tartaglia kept remembering what Zhongli said.

The Tsaritsa was going to help Zhongli complete the final contract.

Clearly, it was impossible for the Tsaritsa herself to take action, which meant...

Was he, Tartaglia, a coolie sent by the Tsaritsa to work for Zhongli?

Thinking of this, Tartaglia suddenly felt a bit miserable.

This Gnosis also felt a bit heavy.

Thinking that he still had to help Zhongli complete the so-called final contract, that kind of thing...

What a waste of his time for cultivating immortality!

What if he was surpassed by others during this time just to complete the final contract?

Tartaglia couldn't help but want to struggle one last time.

"Head Seat Zhongli, this final contract has not been completed yet, how about the Gnosis..."

Before Tartaglia could politely decline and push this matter to Signora.

But clearly, Zhongli didn't intend to give him this opportunity.

"Since the Gnosis has already been handed to you, it has nothing to do with me."

"Moreover, I am not worried that you will not keep your promise and refuse to help me complete the final contract."

Zhongli stared at Tartaglia calmly, and the latter's face turned bitter.

Sure enough, Zhongli was just going to treat him as a coolie.

He had to complete this final contract.

Clearly, he had just joined Shushan today and hadn't even cultivated immortality properly yet!
