Reborn as Xiao in another world, targeted by the little red bird

After returning, Qiu Liuyun told Huang Guxuan about his guess about Zhongli, and then he asked, "Do you have any ideas?"

"You have all guessed that he is an immortal, why don't you guess more boldly?" Huang Guxuan asked back.

"More daring?" Su Yunyan showed a thoughtful look, "Immortal, immortal... That Rock King Emperor is also known as the ancestor of all immortals. Are you saying that Mr. Zhongli is the Rock King Emperor?"

"I didn't say that. You guessed it yourself." Huang Guxuan shrugged. "At worst, you can find a chance to ask him later."

"Will he really tell me?" Qiu Liuyun recalled how Zhongli smiled and naturally changed the subject, with a look of suspicion on his face.

"Aren't you planning to start with others and investigate the traveler? Why did you suddenly turn your target to Zhongli?" Helan Liuying asked.

"That traveler has been basically traveling with Mr. Zhongli in recent days, so I planned to use Mr. Zhongli as a breakthrough point. After getting in touch with him, I found that Mr. Zhongli is not a simple person either. My intuition tells me that he has what we want to know." Qiu Liuyun replied.

"I see. I have had direct contact with that traveler. Apart from the fact that I can't remember his face, I didn't find anything unusual. He is a warm-hearted and gentle brother." Helan Liuying paused, then asked, "By the way, why are you so persistent in investigating that traveler?"

"When carrying out the mission to clear the Eclipse Dream World, we need to submit a mission report. The source of all these changes is very likely Xiao, but I can't really write it in the report, right? Using the Eclipse Dream World to produce the inheritance secret realm... Just thinking about it is very tempting. If some lunatics find out, Xiao will definitely be captured for research."

Qiu Liuyun spread out his hands, looking quite helpless: "But, this time there are so many people involved in the abnormal situation, it's not easy to fool around, I have to write something a little outrageous. Now I have a few ideas in my mind, but I still lack the thread to string them together. Since Senior Brother Huang Guxuan said that the traveler might be a breakthrough, I plan to try to find some ideas from him."

"So this is ah."

Ever since Zhongli claimed that he had something to do and parted with Qiu Liuyun and the others, he has not been seen in the city since.

One morning, there was a noise outside the window. Qiu Liuyun opened the window and saw that it was a group of people wearing masks and black jackets complaining that the Qianyan Army was watching them and restricting their movements.

"Those people seem to be the Fatui, the culprits who assassinated the Rock King according to folk rumors." Helan Liuying also walked to the window at some point.

"They look like just a group of mortals." Qiu Liuyun commented.

“I heard that they now have an ‘executor’ named Gongzi stationed in Liyue, and he holds the authority granted by the Ice Queen.” Helan Liuying continued.

"Young Master? I seem to have heard this name somewhere. It sounds like he has the combat power of a Liyue Immortal. However, for ordinary people, it is indeed an unattainable existence. Hmm?" As he spoke, Qiu Liuyun suddenly looked in the direction of Tianheng Mountain.

He turned and looked at the other people in the room: "The immortals are already outside the city. Should we go over and take a look?"

"I don't need to go, they don't know me." Huang Guxuan said.

Qiu Liuyun turned his gaze to the other two people and soon received a positive response.

When they arrived, they unexpectedly discovered that Granny Ping was also there. True Lord Liuyun was aggressive, while True Lords Xueyue and Lishui had stern faces and occasionally agreed with him, but Granny Ping and Xiao didn't say much.

The situation was tense, but the "Tianquan Star" still responded calmly and did not lose the upper hand. The purple-haired seven stars who came with Ningguang to receive the immortals were not affected by the immortals' momentum and fought back with a tough attitude.

Qixing's secretary Ganyu was also present, and she looked a little anxious.

The arrival of the three men only brought a brief pause to the dispute.

"You're here, what have you found?" "Xiao" looked behind him.

"No, everything is normal." Qiu Liuyun walked to Xiao's side and asked, "What do the immortals plan to do with Liyue Harbor?"

"..."

Xiao didn't answer, but Granny Ping started chatting with the three of them. If they didn't know something about immortals, they would have almost thought Granny Ping was just an ordinary, kind old lady.

Next to them, the two parties in the dispute refused to give in. One side believed that the Seven Stars were incapable of managing Liyue, while the other side felt that the immortals had been in seclusion for too long and still retained their inherent impressions of Liyue and mortals.

Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, there was a sudden movement somewhere outside Liyue Harbor.

"This power..." "Xiao" looked towards the south, which was the direction from which the unusual movement came. He felt it and couldn't help but frowned, "A Hundred Taboos Free Talisman?"

Zhenjun and Qixing also stopped arguing.

"That direction is... the Golden House." Ningguang's eyes shone, and she said in a cold tone, "Has that Zhidong executive finally lost his patience?"

A ball of golden flame flew out from the mountains and flew towards the direction of Guyun Pavilion. The moment the flame disappeared into the horizon, the sea surface shook, and in a moment, huge waves were set off. Behind the huge waves, there were huge and slender bodies made of flowing water.

Pitch-black clouds gathered above his head, spreading in all directions, and soon covered the sky of Liyue Harbor. Thunder moved among the clouds, and thunder exploded in everyone's hearts, like drumbeats announcing the arrival of doomsday.

"Osel, the Demon God of Whirlpool?!" Everyone present was shocked.

This former demon god, who was suppressed at the bottom of the sea by the rock spear of the Rock King thousands of years ago, broke the seal today for some unknown reason.

“Is this the purpose of the Fatui studying the Talisman of No Taboos? What a crazy idea.” Ningguang said in a low voice.

True Lord Liuyun glanced indifferently at the two Seven Stars and said, "Forget it. I will put your affairs aside for now and resolve the crisis in front of me first."

"That's exactly what I meant. Please follow me, all the immortals." As she said that, Ningguang led the immortals and humans to the Qun Yu Pavilion. This palace in the sky sailed towards the source of the waves.

Under normal circumstances, the three of them would have certainly appreciated this magnificent building, but now that the devil was in charge, they no longer had the leisure to do so.

The immortals and the Seven Stars had just finished discussing strategies to fight the enemy when the blond traveler climbed onto the Jade Pavilion, looking as if he had just experienced a great battle.

"Have we caught up? The 'Demon of Whirlpool' is still in the sea and hasn't landed in Liyue Harbor yet, right?" the white UFO asked breathlessly.

"Why... are you here?" "Xiao" glanced sideways.

Qiu Liuyun secretly poked Xiao with his elbow and asked in a low voice: "What's the name of that white elf?"

"Are you asking about Paimon?" Xiao looked at him.

"Ah, is Xiao calling me?" Paimon turned around.

Xiao shook his head: "It's okay."

With the help of Paimon, the traveler finally understood the current situation, which was quite serious. When Paimon heard Ningguang say, "It may not be possible to defeat this demon god," he showed a panicked look.

“No way?! But…but you are the immortals who protect Liyue, and the seven stars who protect Liyue! Can’t you think of a solution?”

"That's possible." True Lord Liuyun spoke.

"Huh?" Paimeng looked at the light-colored fairy bird in surprise.

“Earlier, the matter of the ‘Return Machine’ aroused Qixing’s interest and he went to explore it. Now, as the creator of the ‘Return Machine’, I happen to be here…” As he spoke, True Lord Liuyun’s gaze drifted towards the direction of Guiliji.

But soon, she retracted her gaze, and her tone revealed a sense of pride: "Immortal mechanism, what can you mortals research? But as long as I make a slight improvement to this old crossbow, it will be an evolution that you can hardly imagine."

“…It can be considered a kind of ‘immortal fate’.” Ningguang laughed and looked at the demon god in the sea in the distance without changing her expression. “In this way, we can use the ‘New Return’ to fight against the demon god. The immortals present can also inject immortal power into it.”

“Without further ado, the decisive battle begins now—begin!”

As the owner of the Jade Pavilion, Ningguang naturally had the authority to control it. She stood in front of the palace, and her hand gestures changed several times. A huge light screen appeared on the Jade Pavilion, and three "New Return Machines" rose on the light screen.

The three True Lords arrived in front of the "New Return End" and began to inject immortal power into it to control the crossbow.

A frost arrow shot towards Osel, exploding an ice flower on his face.

The head roared towards the direction of the Qun Yu Pavilion, and dense golden light arrows continued to enlarge in his eyes.

At the same time, Huang Guxuan appeared on the top of Tianheng Mountain. Before he came, there was already a figure here.

"Mr. Zhongli, my companions guessed that you are the Rock King Emperor. Tell me, are they right?"
