Chapter 9: The alliance of Ningguang and Keqing

~6 min read 1,145 words

At this time, Ningguang's expression also became unprecedentedly serious.

Zhong Li, an existence suspected to be an adeptus, also praised this basic technique, so it seemed she also needed to pay more attention to this basic technique.

If this technique could be promoted in the Millelith, Liyue's overall strength would also receive a huge improvement.

However, this needed to be verified first and reported to the Geo Archon.

As the Liyue Qixing, Ningguang naturally had means to contact the Geo Archon in an emergency, but now they still had many things that needed to be verified!

Ningguang glanced at the night outside. Well, today was destined to be a sleepless night. She believed that with Keqing's personality, she should be rushing over right now!

…………………………………………

"Alright, it's about time to rest. However, during this period, my accommodation problem needs to be solved by you. After all, Celestia is too boring, with only a sleeping Sustainer; I don't want to go back for the time being," Mu Yang said to Zhong Li beside him, looking at Keqing and Ningguang chatting intermittently in the chat group.

"Is that so? However, it would be best if you changed your clothes!" Zhong Li did not refuse: "As the Heavenly Principles, Liyue can be considered your domain; it is naturally no problem for you to live here.

If you don't mind, how about living in the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor with me?

Director Hu Tao is still very easy to talk to!"

"Can do!" Mu Yang said, glanced at Zhong Li's clothing, and also conjured a set of clothes similar in style to Zhong Li's for himself.

However, unlike Zhong Li's, his attire was black.

"By the way, Zhong Li, it's hard to survive in Liyue without currency. I heard that the director of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, Hu Tao, is foolish, rich, and easy to fool. Why not arrange a job as a consultant for the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor for me too!" Seeming to have thought of something, Mu Yang said to Zhong Li again.

Zhong Li: "..." He didn't know why, but he felt that if Mu Yang and Hu Tao were together, Liyue would likely be turned upside down.

His gaze flickered slightly, but he did not agree to Mu Yang's words. Let Hu Tao support the other party?

Just kidding!

Hu Tao was already dissatisfied with his usual bills; if another Mu Yang were added, wouldn't Hu Tao turn the world upside down?

It was already very good that he arranged accommodation for Mu Yang. If Mu Yang wanted Mora, then he should exchange things from the other world!

And while Zhong Li and Mu Yang were walking toward the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, Keqing also arrived at Ningguang's Jade Chamber, windblown and dusty.

Looking at Keqing's still damp hair, Ningguang narrowed her eyes. It seemed the previous guess was very likely true.

However, she was not someone without emotional intelligence; she naturally couldn't say this in front of Keqing.

"You came faster than I thought. It seems you also care about this chat group!" Ningguang poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of Keqing, saying.

Keqing drank the tea in one gulp, then said: "This is natural. I felt the opportunity for Liyue's transformation. Before I came, I already downloaded that basic technique."

Ningguang widened her eyes upon hearing this: "You cultivated it directly?"

Keqing nodded slightly and said: "I know what you are worried about, but if you keep hesitating, you will miss many opportunities!

Moreover, if the other party wanted to do something to us, we would have already died!"

Ningguang fell silent upon hearing this. In this regard, she really couldn't be as decisive as Keqing. She was worthy of being the person who dared to question the Geo Archon directly at the Rite of Descension!

"What is your opinion on that basic technique?" Sighing, Ningguang still asked Keqing.

"Very good. This technique can cultivate a special energy distinct from elemental power that can be stored in the body. If this power increases, it can also be like elemental power, amplifying combat," Keqing said to Ningguang with a serious tone: "Ningguang, I hope you can support me.

I hope to popularize the basic technique within the Millelith.

At that time, even without the Geo Archon, Liyue can still guarantee its own safety.

The Geo Archon has protected Liyue for over 3,700 years; he cannot protect us forever. We also need to walk our own path."

Ningguang covered her forehead with a bitter smile upon hearing this. Sure enough, what she was worried about had come.

She knew that Keqing was actually a fanatical Geo Archon fan. What she did was not to seize power from the Geo Archon, but just to prove herself to the Geo Archon, prove the value of humans, and prove that the humans protected by the Geo Archon already had the ability to protect themselves.

The child had grown up and no longer needed the Geo Archon to keep staring at them and protecting them.

In fact, Ningguang herself thought so too. She leaned toward human governance.

It was just that she didn't dare to propose it as boldly as Keqing.

She said helplessly: "Keqing, you should understand that wanting to popularize this basic technique is impossible without the Geo Archon's permission!

Moreover, others in the Qixing and the Eight Sects may not be willing to support us.

Popularizing this technique in the Millelith will cause the current balanced situation in Liyue to lose balance again, and there will be people who don't want to see the Millelith's strength greatly improved, especially under our leadership.

And the most critical point: why did that man give us this power!

Does the other party have no purpose?"

Hearing Ningguang mention that man, a flash of anger appeared on Keqing's pretty face. Although the basic technique was good, and the chat group was also good, the other party saw her, which made her unable to accept it!

After doing these things, didn't he even give an explanation?

At least apologize!

"Of course, no matter what the other party's purpose is, he did bring out things we cannot refuse. How about we go see Mr. Zhong Li and that Mu Yang tomorrow?" Seeing Keqing's complexion was not very good, Ningguang hurriedly changed her words.

"Good!" Keqing gritted her teeth: "I always feel that all of this might be related to that Mu Yang!"

Ningguang also fell into deep thought. It was not just Keqing who was suspicious; she was too. Was that Mu Yang really, as he said, a plain traveler?

She and Keqing were the Liyue Qixing, Mr. Zhong Li was nine times out of ten an adeptus, and the other person had never appeared. Then what about this Mu Yang?

It was worth testing him! ===== CHAPTER 11 =====
