Original God's Dark Priest

Saphir has already notified everyone in Mond, and the ones who need to be notified are Inazuma Sumi and Fontaine.

Fontaine is probably unable to take care of itself at the moment, so there is no need to be too anxious. The main problem still lies with Inazuma.

The time Ningguang mentioned was mainly because she had to take a boat to negotiate with Inazuma, which would take a very long time.

But whether it is Ying, Kitsusaigumi, Shin, Miko, or the egret princess Kamisato Ayaka who is the clerk of the society, they all have certificates to the cave, so it is actually very simple to contact them.

Xumi borders Liyue, so it is much easier to send people there to contact them than Inazuma. And Xumi has never been the focus, because of one most important reason: Xumi does not have an organized army.

So the focus of Ningguang is Inazuma.

Now reminded by Safire, she realized she had made a mistake of taking things for granted.

The Chen Ge Pot was originally a tool for communicating with other countries, but she didn't even think of using it. Instead, she took a long detour and this made Lord Tian Quan, who was always known for his calmness, feel a little embarrassed.

“Ahem… What I mean is… um, since it’s such an important meeting, we naturally have to contact them to come to Liyue to discuss it together. After all, staying in a pot is not the way to entertain guests, so…” Ningguang began to rack her brains to justify her mistake.

"Puchi..." Jiang Li couldn't help laughing out loud, but she quickly held it back. Her small body shrank in Shen He's arms, as if the person who laughed just now was not her.

Ningguang glanced at the little guy and gave up explaining: "Anyway, this is it. The meeting will be held at Yuehai Pavilion. We will wait for the envoys from other countries to arrive."

"Yes, I'll do whatever you say." Saphir stopped provoking her and said, "Notify me when the time comes?"

She felt that she needed to participate, but Ningguang shook her head and said, "I have thought about this issue, but in my opinion, maybe it is not appropriate for you to attend this meeting."

"Oh? Why?" Saphir didn't think too much about it, he just wanted to see what Ningguang thought.

Ningguang wiped the foam off her hair and rinsed it with clean hot spring water while saying, "What position do you plan to take to attend the meeting? As a Liyue person? Or as one of the Fatui?"

"This..." Saphir thought about it and it seemed to be true. It was not appropriate for her to appear in formal occasions on behalf of Liyue, because her official identity was an executive of the Fatui, not a fairy from Liyue.

This meeting involving various countries was actually aimed at the Severe Winter Plan planned by some Fatui executives. Logically, Safire should also be one of the topics discussed at the meeting.

Since this is a plan against the Fatui, it is common sense that all executive officers cannot be excluded.

The reason why Saphir initiated this meeting was actually because of the Hearth House and Arlechino. This was the foreign plan of the Kingdom of Winter, but it was just mixed with some internal strife among the Fatui.

Safire spread this influence and triggered actions from various countries.

Her original intention was to muddy the waters, then fish in troubled waters and keep adding fuel to the fire in order to keep the Hearth House, which was at the center of the storm and destined to become a victim, from being lost.

There will always be someone who becomes a victim, but it shouldn't always be a certain group of people. That's not fair.

"I see. What you mean is that I should maintain the Hearth House's position in this incident and wait for the opportunity to act." Saphir nodded, fished out the sleeping little Paimon from the wooden basin, and stood up.

Crystal clear water droplets dripped down her hair and slid across her body without any curves. In the misty air, the girl's smooth body was like an uncut jade, reflecting a soft halo.

"Then I'll leave the specific matters to you to handle. There's still some time before the plan starts, so don't rush. Think more, read more, and discuss more." After giving these instructions, Saphir took little Paimon back to the locker room.

The surface of the hot spring was still rippling. Ningguang leaned against the edge of the spring, closed her eyes slightly, and let out a long breath.

In fact, she was not sure how Safir would react after hearing her words. He might be confused or furious. After all, these words were a bit like an attempt to seize power. As a leader, it is very taboo for subordinates to take over.

Although Saphir is not the leader of Liyue, when facing her, Ningguang always feels inferior and subconsciously regards her as the leader.

Fortunately, Saphir's personality is relatively easy-going, and he doesn't have a violent temper like Master Liuyunjiefeng. That's why Ningguang dared to express her own opinions. Otherwise, she would never make suggestions that might be considered as presumptuous.

If that were the case, the so-called meeting would actually become meaningless. After all, with an Fatui executive present, no one would really speak their truest thoughts openly. This must not happen.

Fortunately, the result was good. Saphir clearly understood Ningguang's concerns and handed everything over to her very generously, which made Ningguang feel a lot more relieved.

Having a smart partner is so easy. There is no need to explain it too clearly, and the other party will know what you are doing.

Each of the Seven Stars of Liyue has a different opinion about Saphir. Although they all acknowledge the legitimacy of the other's identity as an immortal, everyone has a different attitude towards her.

Ningguang treats her more like a partner. It can be said that the taste of transaction is greater than other emotions, and this is also the purest attitude.

Keqing is the complete opposite of Ningguang. In her opinion, Saphir is more like a friend. The two of them can quarrel without too many concerns. Naturally, Keqing would not think of Saphir as an immortal. She is probably the one who is closest to Saphir among the Seven Stars.

The former Tianshu Star Tianshu is more inclined to the relationship between elders and juniors. As for who is the elder and who is the junior... it's hard to say. Although Tianshu is more like an elder when the two are communicating, Tianshu must still have his own ideas in his heart, but he has retired, so it doesn't matter.

Zhiyi's feelings towards Safir are the most complicated. He is very grateful to Safir for helping him cleanse the stain on his body and stopping the mistake he was about to make. At the same time, he is afraid of Safir from the bottom of his heart. After all, he doesn't want to experience the feeling of being killed a second time.

As for the remaining seven-star members, since they had little contact with Saphir, they didn't have much real feeling about her in their hearts and had not yet formed a fixed impression of her, so we won't talk about them for now.

In the locker room, Safire wrung out a towel soaked in boiling water, then carefully wiped the water droplets off Paimon's body so that she could sleep more comfortably.

Little Paimon was scalded by the towel and frowned uncomfortably. Fortunately, the towel was wrung out and the heat dissipated quickly, so it was no longer hot. The cleaned Paimon was constantly fiddled with in Saphir's hands and changed into a pink pajamas.

Safir also dried his body with a large bath towel, changed into his goose yellow pajamas, and then left with little Paimon, ready to go back and rest.

Ningguang in the hot spring saw that Shen He had no intention of leaving. She rolled her eyes and suddenly asked, "Jiang Li is smart. Has Miss Shen He ever planned the future development of this child?"

"No, Jiangli is still young, so it's not the time to worry about this yet." Shen He told the truth. She didn't have any ill feelings towards Ningguang, but she couldn't say she had any good feelings towards her either, because her attitude towards Saphir was always strange, which made her a little worried.

Ningguang seemed not to notice Shen He's tone, and continued to herself, "Speaking of which, the Lantern Festival will be here in a few months. You picked up Jiangli during the Lantern Festival two years ago, right?"

“Yes, she is more than two years old.” It was not surprising that Ningguang knew this. After all, she was a Seven Star, and it was natural for her to have a certain control over Liyue, especially the people in such a sensitive place as the Rock Tea House.

Ningguang leaned back, changed into a comfortable position and sighed, "She's more than two years old, but when you picked her up, she had been born for a while, right? A rough calculation shows that she's probably over three years old.

It’s time to open up.”

"?" Jiang Li didn't bother to play dumb anymore. He stared at Ning Guang with his big eyes without blinking. He was complaining in his heart: You bastard! What are you talking about? Enlightenment? Isn't this just to get me ready for school? Did I offend you? You actually want to harm me? !

Unfortunately, her accusation will not be known to anyone, after all, Nashida is not here.

Shen He was stunned after hearing what Ningguang said. She felt that it seemed to be true. Although her emotions were indifferent, she obviously attached great importance to Jiang Li's education.

Seeing that she was somewhat interested, Ningguang continued, "This child is precocious and has a good chance of studying. She will be able to understand things in the future and find a job in the General Affairs Department. She can go into politics or business. It's all up to her. We can't let her wash dishes or wait on tables in a restaurant. That would be a waste of the child."

Shen He deeply agreed with this. She didn't think Ningguang's words were meant to annoy her, because the reason why Shen He worked as a waiter in the Yanshang Tea House was that she was not suitable for doing other things. Her fate was unique, and she needed to lock her soul with a red rope. If she didn't stay in the Yanshang Tea House and be suppressed by popularity, the loneliness and disaster in her body would erupt at any time and hurt others and herself.

In the past, she didn't feel it because she was young in the mountains, but now that she is older, the evil spirit on her has become heavier. There are often fairies accompanying her in the teahouse on the rock, and there is always someone to take care of her if there is any accident. Shen He can also take this opportunity to interact more with mortals.

Whether it is Zhongli, Saphir or Xianyun, they all said that if you want to break the evil spirit of Gu Chen, it is meaningless to suppress it blindly. Only by interacting with more people and diluting the evil spirit with human popularity can you find a way to break it.

There are many places like this in Liyue Harbor, and the most suitable ones are Wanmin Hall and Yanshang Teahouse, both of which are places with a strong sense of fireworks.

Jiang Li doesn't have any lonely star or calamity. As her guardian, Shen He cares very much about Jiang Li's future, so he pays close attention to Ningguang's proposal.

He is over three years old, it’s time to start learning.

Safir didn't know that Ningguang and Shenhe had discussed this matter. Even if she knew, she would think Ningguang was right. She even wanted to wait until Jiangli was five years old and teach him martial arts during the holidays.

Of course, she doesn't have to worry about this. Every immortal in Liyue is a good fighter. It is impossible for Jiang Li to become a weak academic by following this group of people.

As for what specifically she was asked to learn, it was naturally guns!

The Liyue immortals are all experts in using spears, so the weapon prepared for Jiang Li must also be a long-handled weapon. This is a tradition and cannot be thrown away.

Lying on the bed, Saphir looked at the ceiling and let his thoughts fly. Little Paimon beside him had already changed several sleeping positions. After a long time, Ying, who was covered in moisture, came in holding Rimuru, who was washed clean.

Seeing these two guys, Saphir's eyes suddenly turned cold.

Noticing that Saphir was in a bad mood, Ying was a little confused: "What's wrong? Who offended you?"

"Did you take that slime with you in the shower?" Saphir asked.

Ying was confused, but still shook her head: "No, do you think I haven't read your novel? Rimuru is a boy, right? How can I take a bath with him?"

"That's good." Saphir felt relieved. In this world, no mixed bathing custom could be developed, even for slime. She didn't create the Dust Song Pot to prepare a harem for this guy.

Rimuru frowned: "Hey, hey, what do you think I am? I am a serious person, okay!"

"In that case, then Mr. Slime, please go to sleep next door." Saphir said the ruthless words with a smile.

Rimuru was helpless and could only sigh: "There's no need to be so defensive against me, right? I'm just a cute slime."

Having said that, he still jumped out of Ying's arms obediently and skipped to the next bedroom. That was originally Ying's room, but because Ying liked to come for night raids when she had nothing to do, it gradually became Paimon's room. Now that Paimon doesn't go there anymore, the room has been idle.

It's a good choice to give Rimuru a chance to rest.

After sending Rimuru away, Ying jumped directly onto the bed and pressed her entire body on Saphir, saying with a wicked smile, "Finally I have time to settle accounts with you!"

"What are you settling? It's so sudden and inexplicable." Saphir pushed the yellow-haired girl's face away with a look of disgust.

Ying knocked Safir's hand away and said viciously, "Tell me! What was your purpose in approaching me in the first place?"

"It's an old story. Why are you asking about it now? You don't have a fever, do you?" Saphir said as he wanted to reach out and touch Ying's forehead to see if it was hot.

Ying shook her head desperately, dodging Safir's claws, and then said indignantly: "I finally figured it out. You had ulterior motives when you approached me. How much have you taken from my brother over the years? You don't even give me a share. Isn't that too much?"

"I really didn't take much. Your brother and I are not that familiar with each other." Saphir turned her head away. In fact, she really didn't cheat Kong. Most of the time, she had to do it out of necessity. If she really had to cheat, it was only once or twice.

Ying was full of disbelief at her answer: "Do you think I look stupid? Not familiar with him? If you really weren't familiar with him, how could you call Mond out with just one sentence that time?"

"Hiss...what you said makes a lot of sense!" Saphir was a little confused. It was true. At the beginning, she just tried to call out, but she didn't expect Kong to appear. Logically speaking, it wouldn't matter even if Kong didn't appear in that situation. After all, she and Ying were almost unable to hold on.

Why did Nakong appear? And every time he cheated him, although it was a reward for Saphir to take care of Ying, how much of this so-called reward actually reached Ying?

To be honest, there aren't many of them. They were all used by Safir himself. Thinking of this, Safir suddenly felt that he had indeed overlooked a lot of details.

Taking out Veronica, Saphir asked, "Veronica, do you know something?"

"What is your relationship with the Abyss Cult?" Veronica replied softly, "I don't know. I'm just the soul of a demon god, and I don't know everything. Besides, as long as you walk in the continent of Teyvat under the name 'Saphir', the World Tree will not leave any record of you.

So even if I seize the authority of the World Tree, I will not be able to know anything about you, whether it is you or your past self."

"Is there something wrong with what you said? Wasn't I the same me in the past? Why are you talking about them separately?" Safir and Ying looked at each other, both feeling a little strange.

But Veronica did not answer, but returned to Saphir's body. She had said what needed to be said, and how Saphir wanted to understand it was her own business. Veronica could not reveal anything further.
