Chapter 308

The mature woman named Yelan wore something like leather pants on her lower body, but the sides of her thighs were slightly exposed.

There were also many diamond-shaped decorations on them.

The gaps extended to the black-mesh waist, and the edges of the small amount of fabric covering her chest were decorated with black lace.

The overall blue-black attire was somewhat similar to Eula’s.

However, unlike Eula, Yelan had a distinct mole below her collarbone.

The so-called "broad-minded and ambitious" refers to someone like her.

Just like the tear mole at the corner of Raiden Ei’s eye, it could be called the finishing touch.

While Luo Li was sizing her up, Yelan was also looking at the group that had suddenly appeared.

Luo Li was quite surprised to find that her expression revealed she seemed to know him and Lumine, even though they had never met.

But that was normal; Yelan seemed to be the head of Liyue’s intelligence network, or at least one of the high-level members, and had a close relationship with Ningguang.

Counting her status, she was also the adopted daughter of the Tianshu Star.

Perhaps she was one of the next successors to the Liyue the Liyue Qixing.

It was normal for her to know about Luo Li and the Traveler.

Ganyu asked, "Miss Yelan, what brings you here?"

She was a bit surprised to see her here, because Miss Yelan was absent for nearly 70% of the year.

053

But this was a privilege given to her by Ningguang.

Of course, this was not something she would inquire about, and she had never asked about the specific details.

Ganyu had always kept to her duties and done her own work well.

She only vaguely knew that Yelan seemed to be responsible for intelligence work, and many of the messages about the Fatui’s actions in Liyue before were reported by her.

At this point, the mature big sister with short hair finally spoke: "I am here to request Lady Ningguang to transfer me to the Chasm."

Her voice was slightly low, mixed with a lazy sexiness.

This was somewhat similar to Lisa, but Auntie Lisa had a higher degree of sexiness.

"The Chasm? I remember it was sealed, wasn't it?"

Ganyu was a bit surprised; the order to seal it was conveyed by her.

At this time, Yelan interjected, "Because I recently found some clues about the anomalies in the Chasm and need to go explore them."

After a pause, she looked at Ningguang.

Ningguang nodded slightly, "Everyone here is trustworthy, so feel free to say it."

With that said, Yelan told them everything she knew about the Chasm, the Abyss Order, and some anomalies.

Including her own guesses, and the news that many Hilichurls had gone to the Chasm recently and never appeared again.

These were top-secret, and ordinary people would have no way of knowing.

For this reason, the Blackcliff Forge and the miners over at the Chasm had all been transferred back to Liyue Harbor to wait for work at home.

Hearing this, Paimon couldn't help but say, "What a coincidence, we know some things and are also going to the Chasm!"

Seeing everyone’s gazes turn to her at the same time, she realized she had let something slip and hurriedly covered her mouth.

Lumine was already used to it and just held her forehead to show she was speechless.

Ningguang smiled, "So that’s how it is; you wouldn't happen to be here to ask me for a transfer order to enter the Chasm, would you?"

As intelligent as she was, she instantly understood the Traveler’s purpose.

As for Mr. Luo Li, she wasn't quite sure.

Speaking of this, Lumine didn't hide it anymore and simply stated her intention directly.

"That’s right, I hope Lady Ningguang can make things convenient for us."

Ningguang pondered for a moment, "Hmm, according to my own thoughts, I would naturally be willing to open the doors for you, but you are not part of Liyue’s system, so my agreement alone is useless."

They had a decisive difference from Yelan.

One was one of their own, the other was an outsider.

Even if Ningguang knew the Traveler wouldn't do anything detrimental to Liyue, she still had to answer to the other Liyue the Liyue Qixing.

"So it is like that." Paimon was a bit disappointed.

Ningguang smiled and looked at the two, "It’s not that there isn't any chance at all. If you get the approval of more than half of the Liyue the Liyue Qixing, this won't be any trouble."

Approval of more than half of the Liyue the Liyue Qixing...

Lumine and Paimon looked at each other; if only it were that easy to get approval.

Seeing the two a bit dejected, Ningguang took a light puff from her pipe and said with a faint smile, "There is no rush for this matter; the trial opening of the Chasm has to wait until after the Lantern Rite. The Lantern Rite is in three days, so take this time to relax and enjoy the festival."

After speaking, she said to Yelan, "You too."

Yelan was quite surprised.

No, what does the Lantern Rite have to do with an intelligence head like her?

Originally, Yelan had been thinking of entering the Chasm early to investigate and follow some clues she had found.

Now that Ningguang had said this, it seemed the idea of entering early was off the table.

Lumine and Paimon were also stunned.

Luo Li probably understood the reason; according to the timeline, the Abyss Order’s plan in the Chasm hadn't started yet, so even if they went, they wouldn't find anything.

However, during this period, it was time to make some preparations.

Just as he was thinking this, he heard Paimon ask, "By the way, why haven't we seen Keqing?"

Ningguang explained, "Keqing is mainly responsible for this Lantern Rite. I heard that she successfully invited someone, so she took the initiative to take on the responsibility. It seems she intends to hold a perfect festival and is probably running around the city coordinating things now."

As she spoke, she looked at someone intentionally or unintentionally.

Everyone present understood immediately; it was obvious who she was talking about.

Lumine couldn't help but click her tongue softly; this guy was truly the enemy of women, being obsessed over by countless young girls.

If it weren't for the fact that she could still keep her heart, or perhaps it was because Luo Li didn't intentionally flirt with her, otherwise Lumine felt she might not have been able to handle it either.

She wouldn't even be looking for her brother anymore and would just stay in Inazuma.

What brother to look for?

Just settle down and raise a family!

"If you want to find her, it’s best to go to the docks; I remember her work progress should be there now." Ningguang added another sentence.

Because she wanted to finish her work progress quickly, Keqing had almost entered a workaholic state, just so she could have free time later.

Needless to say, Ningguang knew full well who that free time was for.

Luo Li had self-awareness and could understand Keqing’s thoughts; he wasn't a dense guy.

"Then we won't disturb you anymore."

Lumine and Paimon, knowing they couldn't meet their requirements, immediately chose to leave.

Staying here wouldn't get them any good news, so it was better to go out and think of ways, such as finding Mr. Zhongli or something.
