Chapter 195

【Venti】: Everyone is fantasizing about becoming a god, have you considered how the sky feels? (Funny)

Is this poet getting a bit carried away?

Seeing Zhongli was a bit puzzled; the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles must also belong to the transcendent ranks and is surely in the group, just not bubbling up.

Venti actually dares to jump in her face like this; isn't he afraid the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles will make things difficult for him?

Although Seeing Zhongli is not afraid, he is a bit worried about Venti getting dealt with.

Although this guy is shameless, they have known each other for so long after all.

【Gu Chen】: Consider what? I have performed meritorious service for Teyvat, I have shed blood for Teyvat! I am a tremendously loyal subject! (Funny)

【Kaeya】: Bold! (Funny)

【Paimon】: Although this is a past-life video, you guys shouldn't easily project yourselves into it! (Paimon: shocked)

【Venti】: (Hu Tao: smirk)

【Gu Chen】: The Sustainer is fatuous and tyrannical; everyone, follow me to overthrow her! (Klee: Charge!)

【Seeing Zhongli】: You are not afraid of death.

【Venti】: Let's be clear first, I am a loyal subject of Celestia! (Funny)

On Celestia.

Watching the unscrupulous remarks in the group, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles was so angry she laughed.

Fine, fine, so you, Barbatos, are a loyal subject, right? Do you really think I didn't see how your Gnosis was dug out?

Ever since the video was exposed, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles understood.

She vaguely had a suspicion that these Seven Sovereigns of the mortal world might all have rebellious bones.

Except for Raiden Ei, because that blockhead Raiden Ei probably didn't think that much.

But even knowing that these people might have many ulterior motives, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles was powerless to deal with them.

Her current state is getting worse and worse; sustaining the stability of the world has already exhausted her heart and strength.

The Traveler twins, whom she originally held in high regard, were also slowly walking on the path of her plan under her maneuvering.

But there just happened to be this variable, Gu Chen!

The more the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles thought about it, the more resentful she became.

Three years passed in a flash.

Now, a scroll has appeared in Gu Chen's hand.

On the axis made of white jade, complex patterns were carved, and the recessed areas had gilded gold that seemed to be flowing.

The main body floated slightly in the air like a painting; it was not made of paper, but more like infinite golden light gathering into fabric.

Tai Xuan Investiture of the Gods!

When this treasure was born, even Gu Chen, the refiner, was slightly startled.

"Still need to make some preparations."

"The Tai Xuan Investiture of the Gods conforms to all the rules of this world, but it still needs the recognition of a higher status."

Gu Chen fell into thought.

After a long time, he whispered: "The unification of the continent cannot be delayed any longer!"

Putting away the Tai Xuan Investiture of the Gods, Gu Chen pushed open the gate that had been closed for three years.

The birth of the Tai Xuan Investiture of the Gods did not reveal much aura, and the outside world knew nothing about it.

Gu Chen, who had just pushed the door and stepped out, saw Sister Guizhong at a desk in the sea of flowers in the distance, dealing with something; she was biting her pen, seemingly troubled.

Hearing the movement, she turned back to look at Gu Chen and said with surprise: "You've come out of seclusion?"

"Mm."

Gu Chen nodded, then noticed a small blue thing beside Sister Guizhong, and couldn't help but curiously ask: "What is this?"

Sister Guizhong came back to her senses, picked up the little thing beside her, and said with a smile: "It's actually an interesting story!"

The little guy Sister Guizhong was holding looked like a little lamb, with cute blue fur.

Gu Chen became interested and said: "Tell me about it."

Sister Guizhong said while laughing non-stop.

The Qilin is a noble and benevolent immortal beast, often appearing in mountains and forests, walking slowly only on nights when clear dew and starlight intersect, feeding on pure nectar and bitter herbs.

【Feeding on】

The Qilin is a gentle immortal beast, and elegance and grace flow in their bloodline.

Now, in the large cities under the Tai Xuan Sect, humans have already learned to weave and have simple clothing.

But in those remote mountain areas, humans still use water chestnut leaves as clothes and fragrant leaves as skirts.

One night, a herbalist was bathing in a pond in the mountains, but unexpectedly, the clothes scattered by the pond were eaten by a Qilin passing by by chance.

The still-young immortal beast did not understand human shame and private desires, nor had she learned the principles of immortal beasts walking in the human world.

To compensate for her reckless behavior, and to avoid the immortal's extraordinary appearance frightening the fragile mortal, she transformed into a human form, and when the full moon's dim light spilled over the pond, she appeared before the herbalist.

【Appeared before the herbalist】

Under the cold moonlight, in the forest dotted with fireflies, with dew as clothes and moonlight as a skirt, she played with the ignorant mortal, wandering between fragrant flowers and secluded bamboo, introducing him to the immortals' dwellings, interpreting the language of birds and beasts for him, and sleeping lightly amidst the chirping of insects in the quiet night.

【Sleeping lightly amidst the chirping of insects】

When the herbalist woke up again, the noble immortal beast was gone, until one day he suddenly found a toddler at his door.

The bloodline of human and immortal.

"The herbalist knew he couldn't raise this little guy, so he sent her to the Tai Xuan Sect; Cloud Retainer loves this little guy so much," Sister Guizhong said.

After listening, Gu Chen said: "If it hadn't really happened, it would be like a story in a book."

"Yes, I also find it so wonderful; what's even more wonderful is... this child's father knew he couldn't use immortal arts so he couldn't raise her, and her mother ran off to travel outside."

"And now?"

"Now, Cloud Retainer has taken her as a disciple!"

Hearing this, Gu Chen reached out and touched the petite little guy sleeping.

Seeming to sense a strange aura, the little guy trembled slightly, then curled up her small body and fell into a deep sleep again.

"Try taking something to eat?" Sister Guizhong whispered.

Gu Chen pondered for a moment, and under Sister Guizhong's huffing gaze, pulled out a Glaze Lily, raised his hand and wiped it, and it immediately bloomed, the faint fragrance even more refreshing.

【Refreshing】

When he handed the Glaze Lily to the little guy, the little guy in her sleep sniffed it, soon struggled and woke up, and after seeing it was a Glaze Lily, swallowed it in one bite, then closed her eyes again happily.

【Closed her eyes again happily】

"Does she have a name?" Gu Chen asked with a smile.

"Her name is Ganyu," Sister Guizhong replied.

【Cloud Retainer】: Haha, speaking of which, Ganyu was this cute when she was little. (Ganyu: prayer)

【Ganyu】 (Collei: no response)

【Keqing】: So that's how Ganyu's parents became connected; what a wonderful fate.

(Paimon: shocked)

Everyone in the group already understood that Ganyu is a half-immortal beast and was quite curious about Ganyu's parents.

Mainly curious about which of Ganyu's parents was human and which was an immortal beast; now there is an answer.

【Paimon】: Ganyu was really cute when she was little; I want to touch her! (Longing)

【Collei】: Those little horns, they must feel very comfortable to touch!! (Venti: starry-eyed expectation)

【Yae Miko】: Ganyu-sister is very touchable. (Yae Miko: smirk)

【Ganyu】: (Qiqi: fall)

"Speaking of which, have you finished your business?"

After talking about little Ganyu, Sister Guizhong asked.

"Of course I've finished; what needs to be done now is to expand the influence of the Tai Xuan Sect; humans in other places are still suffering... After taking down the entire Teyvat continent in one go, it will be time for the Investiture of the Gods!"

【Time for the Investiture of the Gods!】

"The Tai Xuan Sect holds the authority of heaven and earth; at that time, more authority will be divided to confer gods, they won't have so many conflicts among themselves, and they can better contribute to human development; at the same time, human faith in them can also be transformed into their power... This is the best of both worlds, benefiting both humans and the gods!"

【Benefiting both humans and the gods!】

After listening, Sister Guizhong's eyes sparkled with little stars.

"Gather the elders and Dharma protectors; it's time to strike in all directions!" Gu Chen said.

"Okay!"
