Chapter 408: Clone Technique! One Gan Yu, Multiply the Joy (Request Subscription)

"Boss Han, I'll take my leave now!"

After receiving their rewards, Zhongli and Venti took their leave in turn.

Granny Ping watched Zhongli's retreating figure and furrowed her brow slightly.

"What's wrong? Is the manga not good?"

Seeing Granny Ping's expression, Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun spoke up.

"No, I just felt as if I saw the Lord of Geo."

Granny Ping smiled.

"The Lord of Geo? Could he have come to read manga too?"

Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun's face showed surprise.

"Maybe I just imagined it."

Thinking of the man's back just now, Granny Ping said uncertainly.

"But come to think of it, this is the most beautiful manga I've ever seen—I must recommend it to the Lord of Geo next time I meet him."

Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun chuckled.

After years of wandering free as clouds and cranes, she had finally found joy in life.

Hmm, I must come here to read manga every day from now on.

I'll bring that girl Shenhe along too.

…

After leaving the manga shop, Zhongli looked at the familiar Liyue alley and sighed.

"Such effortless teleportation—only Boss Han's manga shop could have this ability."

After a moment of reflection, Zhongli 813 raised his black umbrella to leave.

But the Qianyan Army stopped him.

"Sorry, by Lady Ningguang's orders, everyone who enters this Xieyou Shuwu must report their reward.

Any falsification will be punished without mercy—please cooperate."

A Qianyan Army captain stepped forward.

Though he didn't know why a bookstore needed such attention.

But since it was Lady Ningguang's command, they had to obey.

"Lady Ningguang's order?"

Hearing this, Zhongli immediately understood.

The timing of Boss Han's manga shop was too convenient.

The Immortal Invocation Ceremony was about to be held.

Probably Lady Ningguang feared some sudden incident.

But she needn't have worried—this Immortal Invocation Ceremony was certain to have trouble.

"My reward is this rune called Future Market—it lets me borrow 500,000 Mora.

But I must repay it within five days, plus 100,000 Mora interest. Want to try it?"

Zhongli pulled out the rune and smiled faintly.

"Cough, cough, no need—we just need to record it."

The Qianyan Army captain glanced at the blue rune, cleared his throat, and said.

He hadn't expected this man's reward to be so strange—it was a reward that lent money.

It looked useful, but paying 100,000 Mora interest at once? Only a fool would use it.

"What's that in your hand?"

The Qianyan Army captain now noticed Zhongli's black umbrella.

"A gift from an old friend—it's an umbrella that brings rain when opened."

Zhongli explained.

"An umbrella that brings rain when opened? Let me see!"

The Qianyan Army captain looked skeptical, took the black umbrella, and opened it above his head.

Splash!

The moment the umbrella opened, rain poured down from inside it.

The Qianyan Army captain was drenched instantly.

The other Qianyan soldiers nearby couldn't help but suppress their laughter.

"Strange things—both rewards are so bizarre."

The Qianyan Army captain closed the umbrella, wiped his face, and looked utterly baffled.

"That's because Xieyou Shuwu is a very magical place—if you get the chance, you should visit too."

Zhongli smiled faintly.

Boss Han's manga shop is a place that can change one's fate.

If possible, he hoped all Liyue people could obtain something good from here.

"A place that changes fate?"

Watching Zhongli's retreating figure, the Qianyan Army captain fell into thought.

Could this be why Lady Ningguang valued this place so much?

If so, I'll come here myself later.

…

Jieyou Bookhouse.

Not long after, Seeing Ganyu finished reading the manga.

After closing the Journey to the West, Seeing Ganyu looked utterly captivated.

Previously, her greatest hobby was work.

Work made her happy.

But after reading the manga, her thoughts changed.

There were actually things so delightful in this world!

The myriad immortals, gods, ghosts, and monsters, along with the wondrous magical artifacts within, left Seeing Ganyu exclaiming in delight.
