Original God: Starting with a Skyfire Suicide.

"Hi~ Mr. Zhongli, nice to see you again. It's been a while since I last saw you. You're still as charming as ever~?"

At this moment, one of the originally gray-blue eyes had turned into a pink color full of girlishness.

"Hello Miss Alicia, it's been a while since we last met. Are you okay?"

Although Zhongli was very curious about the changes in the eyes when switching personalities, he thought it would be easier to distinguish them this way, so he suppressed his urge to complain and politely greeted Alicia.

"Hmm~? Thank you Mr. Zhongli for your concern. With Xiaoyan's help, I am much better now. Hehe, well, I won't disturb you and Guizhong from catching up. Let's talk next time~?"

After Alicia said this with a smile, the eye that had originally turned pink also turned back to gray-blue.

Looking at Meng Yan's randomly changing glasses, Zhongli felt like complaining again.

However, the atmosphere that had been somewhat tense due to the conversation between Zhongli and Guizhong had become relaxed again due to Alicia's intervention.

"Moracus, I want to know what happened to Marcosius. Why did he become like this?"

In the end, she turned the topic to Guoba, mainly because she was also curious about what happened to Marcosius.

"My old friend......"

Seeing Gui Zhong asking, Zhong Li sighed and roughly explained to Gui Zhong the reason why the rice crust became like this. After listening to what Zhong Li said, Gui Zhong smiled helplessly.

"Giving up all his strength and wisdom for the sake of people...haha, that's indeed what He would do. But it's good this way. At least Marcosius...is not Guoba now. At least Guoba won't be bothered by those trivial matters now. Maybe this is not a bad thing for Him."

In the end, she had no doubts about this matter. On the one hand, Morax said it himself, and on the other hand, she knew Marcosius, and knew that he could indeed make that kind of decision when the time came.

"Well, you can just call me Zhongli from now on. The Rock God Morax has passed away."

Zhongli also took a sip of tea and said to Guizhong:

"No problem. But speaking of this, I'm quite curious. You said you faked your death, so why did you arrange a funeral for yourself?"

Gui Zhong also calmed down and looked at Zhong Li curiously. She was indeed quite curious about what it would be like to hold a funeral for herself.

"........."

Hearing this, Zhongli didn't know what to say for a moment. If there were other questions, he could ignore them, but the person in front of him was an old friend whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

"I just saw how solemn it was to invite the immortals, but when the problem arose, I was so confused that I forgot about sending the immortals. It was really outrageous, so I took over the task of sending the immortals."

After organizing his words, Zhongli explained to Guizhong:

"Well, don't blame Qixing for this. After all, you are the god of Liyue, their pillar, and then you were assassinated without any warning. Even Qixing can't stay calm in that situation, right?"

Gui Zhong smiled at what Zhongli said, thinking that Qixing couldn't be blamed for this. After all, the invitation to the immortal was carefully prepared in advance, and the sending of the immortal was too sudden. It was understandable that Qixing made some mistakes.

"Of course I know this, so I don't mean to blame Qixing. I was just talking about it."

Zhongli also nodded slightly. Guizhong was indeed still as gentle as ever.

"Zhongli, why did you suddenly want to fake your death and get away so that you can hand over the power of Liyue to Qixing?"

This was another question that Gui Zhong was curious about. She knew that Morax was a man with an absolute sense of responsibility, so she thought that he must have his own considerations for doing so.

"Well... this story started some time ago..."

Zhongli's thoughts seemed to have returned to a certain time, and a deep look appeared in his eyes.

"I think you know that it has been 3,700 years since I and the immortals founded Liyue. Even the rock that cannot be broken by the whirlpool will be worn away by the erosion of time.

But I kept convincing myself that the time of wear and tear had not yet come, until......"

Zhongli paused, then said

"Until one rainy day, I was walking in the harbor and heard a merchant praising his subordinates, "You have completed your duties. Now, go and rest."

At that time, I stood for a long time among the crowd, my mind racing with thoughts, have I fulfilled my duty? "

Zhongli's voice was extremely calm, but it also revealed a hint of melancholy.

"Zhongli, if that merchant heard what you said, he would probably regret it so much that he would kneel on the ground and slap himself a few times!"

Gui Zhong also joked to Zhong Li, trying to comfort him.

"Haha, not entirely. Everything in the world has its destiny. Even if I hadn't heard what those vendors said that day, I would probably have had the same idea in other places!"

Zhongli smiled and said that he was fine. Then he said

"But when I wanted to step down from the throne, I found that I had many reasons to not leave. Is Liyue ready to become a godless country? I don't know any of this, so I planned this fake death.

Drag the Seven Stars, the Fatui, and the Immortals into the chaos......"

"But now it seems that Qixing should be satisfied with what he has done, right?" Gui Zhong also looked at Zhongli with a smile.

"Yes, they quickly gathered power in the chaotic vacuum after my death. Of course, I am not saying that this is bad. On the contrary, I think their approach is quite wise."

Zhongli also showed relief on his face, just like an old father who saw his child finally grow up.

"Hehe, Zhongli, can you now rest assured to put down your duties as Geo God? Will there be a new Geo God in Liyue in the future?"

Gui Zhong looked at Zhong Li curiously and asked

"Well, now Liyue has entered the next era, an era of human rule, an era without gods. Naturally, there will be no new Rock Gods appearing."

Zhongli gave his own answer to this question. The future is still unknown, but Zhongli believes that this situation in Liyue will last for quite a long time.

While the two were talking, Xiangling brought up the dishes Mengyan ordered one by one.

"To Zhongli, I have already informed Liuyun and the others to come and participate in the ceremony of sending off the immortals. Let's all get together then!"
