Chapter 311

Miss Xiangling sighed with emotion.

First it was the bamboo dragonfly, now it's the Door of Anywhere.

Who knows what other items with special abilities might appear next.

Even if someone possessed just one of these items, they would treasure it deeply.

Only at Mr. Han's place would they be thrown out so recklessly.

His vision is simply different.

After expressing her thoughts, Miss Xiangling and Eula left without delay, heading straight for the discussion area.

Xiao Feng placed the items into the room prepared by Noel,

then departed with Paimon.

Let's go on an impromptu journey!

They didn't bid farewell to anyone.

After all, they could return anytime—there was no real need to say goodbye.

……

Liyue.

Qunyu Pavilion.

Lady Ningguang was preparing the procedural documents for the upcoming Immortal Invocation Ceremony.

The Immortal Invocation Ceremony is Liyue's grand annual ritual, each time presided over by a different Star.

The Rock Lord will appear at the ceremony in a form half-dragon, half-phoenix,

then guide Liyue's direction for the coming year.

This year, it was Lady Ningguang's turn to preside.

Thus, her recent work had been extremely hectic.

She feared that even a minor mistake might mar this major event.

The three secretaries—Customer Baixiao, Customer Baixiang, and Customer Baishi—were assisting her nearby.

At this moment,

Lady Keqing finally arrived from the manga shop.

"Why are you here? Did you finish surveying Liyue Harbor?"

Lady Ningguang smiled upon seeing Lady Keqing.

She knew the other had left early that morning for Liyue Harbor.

Though their managerial duties differed, Lady Ningguang greatly admired Lady Keqing's diligence.

"No, because in a narrow alley I discovered a remarkably strange bookstore."

Sitting down, Lady Keqing smiled.

Recalling her experience reading manga and receiving rewards, she felt as if it were a dream.

"Oh? How strange?"

Lady Ningguang set aside her work, intrigued.

Lady Keqing was Liyue's Star of Tiansheng, of noble status.

And from a prominent family.

Her knowledge and experience far surpassed others'.

And yet now there was a bookstore that struck her as strange?

Lady Ningguang found this interesting.

Especially since the bookstore was tucked away in an alley.

At this moment, Customer Baixiang brought Lady Keqing a cup of tea.

"Thank you."

Lady Keqing took a light sip, paused, then continued.

"It appears to be an ordinary bookstore, but the moment I stepped inside, I was instantly transported to Mondstadt…"

"Had I not noticed the scenery outside the shop had changed, I wouldn't have realized it at all."

"What? You mean you just went to Mondstadt and came back—through that bookstore?!"

A look of shock crossed Lady Ningguang's face.

The secretaries beside her also turned to look, curious.

Clearly, this stunned them as well.

"Yes, I saw people from Mondstadt's Windrider Knights and Miss Xiangling there."

Lady Keqing nodded, continuing.

"Later, I learned that this Liyue shop is merely a branch—the true store is in Mondstadt."

"It seems that manga shop has teleportation ability."

Internal Group 5192 (2) S243

Lady Ningguang understood.

Only teleportation could have silently transported Lady Keqing to Mondstadt.

This shop truly was extraordinary.

"If you think that's all, you're wrong—the strangeness is only beginning."

Lady Keqing smiled mysteriously.

"Oh? Do tell."

This time, Lady Ningguang was truly intrigued.

In her view, a bookstore with teleportation ability was already worthy of being called miraculous.

Yet Lady Keqing said this was nothing special.

Then what would count as miraculous?

"That shop only has one kind of book, called 4.4 manga books — a kind of book with many pictures and few words."

Lady Keqing's expression grew solemn as she spoke of this.

"The miraculous thing I mean is, reading manga in this shop can earn you rewards!

The reward might be an ordinary item, or it could be a skill, or even a powerful boost in strength."

"Reading manga, and you can gain powerful strength?"

A hint of suspicion flickered across Lady Ningguang's face.

Her first reaction was disbelief.

Because as the Tianquan Star of Liyue, her status already gave her access to many things.

Yet she had never heard of such a miraculous shop.

But looking at Lady Keqing's solemn expression,

and the teleportation situation she had just described,

Lady Ningguang sensed something was off.

Could there really be such a miraculous shop?!
