Genshin Impact: I was sent away by Yaksha at the beginning

Chapter 20 The Assassination of the Emperor

Liyuegang

The annual ceremony of inviting the immortals to Liyue Harbor has finally arrived. Just as Ling Mengxue expected, Liyue Harbor is surprisingly lively today. The streets are crowded with people and the port is full of foreign merchant ships.

I have heard about the Liyue Fairy Ceremony for a long time. It only happens once a year. If you miss it, you can only wait another year. (It feels like I missed the up pool. I miss Xiaobao for the nth day...)

According to rumors, the true ruler of Liyue, Rock King Emperor, also known as Rock God Morax, will send down an oracle today to guide the development direction of Liyue in the coming year. Unlike the idle Wind God Barbatos, this Rock King Emperor has been working diligently for thousands of years.

Ling Mengxue was also looking forward to today's feast. Looking at the crowded Liyue Harbor, she thought she should fill her stomach first. Anyway, there was still some time before the Invitation to the Immortals Ceremony. Moreover, Liyue Harbor was particularly lively today. It seemed that there were many small toys that were not usually seen. She even saw a cute Emperor toy, a chubby dragon with two horns, which was very interesting. And it seemed that the sales were very good.

Ling Mengxue couldn't resist the temptation and finally spent a huge sum of 2 Moras to buy one. She would indulge herself once a year.

Before coming to participate in the Summoning the Immortals Ceremony, I already knew from the proprietress that in order to watch the Summoning the Immortals Ceremony, I had to go to a place called Yujingtai. I heard that it was the highest point of the port - it sounds like a very suitable place to communicate with the gods.

I heard that Emperor Yanwang is the oldest god among the seven gods. From conversations with the Liyue people around me, I learned that Mora was actually named after this god. It can even be said that Mora was originally created by this god.

Wouldn't it mean that if he possessed the Rock King, he would become the richest person in the entire Teyvat continent? A terrible thought suddenly flashed through Ling Mengxue's mind. If he could kidnap the Rock King... (If he really did that, he would probably only empty his wallet. That's right, Zhongli would have an extra wallet from now on~)

Ahem, this idea is still a little unreliable. She is Liyue's master after all. Now she can't even beat Xiao, and she even kidnapped the Emperor. It's so funny.

In order to maintain her strength, Ling Mengxue came to Wanmin Hall where Xiangling was. Sure enough, today Xiangling did not travel outside like before, but chose to come back to help Master Mao.

When Master Mao saw Ling Mengxue coming, he greeted her warmly. The business of Wanmin Hall was particularly good today. After waiting for a long time, there was finally an empty seat. Xiangling was so busy that she had no time to greet Ling Mengxue.

Today, Wanmin Hall’s signature dish is called Lai Lai Cai, which is a dish with very rich ingredients. It not only has fish, meat and shrimps, but also vegetables. The presentation is also very delicate. The delicious soup brings together the essence of this delicacy. The moment it is served, just one look at it makes people feel very appetizing, and the boss doesn’t even need to praise its benefits.

"I heard that only those big shots who control Liyue are qualified to preside over the ceremony of inviting the immortals."

"Oh, did you know that most of the immortals in Liyue are in animal form? Rumor has it that even the Rock King himself would show his half-unicorn, half-dragon immortal body in such formal occasions..."

"It seems that this year's Immortal Invitation Ceremony is still hosted by Lady Ningguang. It will surely be very lively and smooth this year."

The diners at Wanmin Hall were discussing enthusiastically today's ceremony of inviting the immortals.

Having successfully filled her stomach, Ling Mengxue said goodbye to Master Mao and Xiangling, and went straight to the Yujingtai above. After arriving at the Yujingtai, she saw many people burning incense and making wishes at the Yujingtai. They seemed very pious. Obviously, everyone believed that if they made a wish on this special day, the Emperor and the immortals of Liyue would fulfill their wishes.

Ling Mengxue saw a familiar figure among the many people making wishes. A cute little creature was floating next to the blonde girl. The girl clasped her hands together and made a wish devoutly to the Rock King.

The girl wore two five-petal white flowers on her short golden hair, and the magical thing was that the stamens were actually glowing. The blue and white exotic clothing made her stand out from the crowd. Her sleeves were adorable rabbit ears, and her white and gold wooden-soled boots made her look like a real princess in Ling Mengxue's eyes.

This girl Ling Mengxue is naturally more familiar. Although I have not controlled her for a long time, Ying is undoubtedly the protagonist of this game. The protagonist is more powerful than the sky ~ there is nothing wrong with that.

Ying probably hopes to find her brother. Thinking of the opening cg of this game, I don't need to think about it to know what Ying's wish is.

The cute creature next to her seemed to be called Paimon. Ling Mengxue only remembered the food that the little creature liked to eat, and she really had no impression of anything else. After all, she was pissed off and teleported in right before she even started playing in reality. She didn't collect any useful information at all.

Although she has seen many girls, Ling Mengxue thinks that Ying, as the protagonist, is also very beautiful. She is really the kind of beauty who becomes more beautiful the more you look at her.

At this moment, Ningguang, who was sitting on the stage, was looking at the sea of ​​people coming to watch the ceremony. As the leader of the Seven Stars of Liyue, she also attached great importance to this matter. This year, she personally presided over the ceremony of inviting the immortals.

The auspicious time for summoning the immortals is approaching. As one of the Seven Stars, Ningguang is also very curious about what kind of oracle the Rock King will send down this year to guide Liyue for the next year.

Ningguang looked around at the heavily guarded Qianyan Army. They were obviously very nervous about the annual Summoning Immortals Ceremony. No one dared to relax their guard. They all perked up and carefully observed the sea of ​​people on the Jade Shock Stage.

Ningguang nodded in relief. It seemed that there shouldn't be any big problems. The Thousand Rocks Army had been arranged to guard important places, and Keqin was also patrolling nearby. Even if any unexpected accidents occurred, they would be able to rush to the rescue in the first time.

The auspicious time is coming soon, and it will be held smoothly like in previous years. Ningguang comforted herself in her heart. For some reason, she always felt a vague uneasiness in her heart. Perhaps it was because there seemed to be more foreigners in the ceremony this year, which made her alert. But this is a good thing, which shows that Liyue's influence has become more and more far-reaching.

"The auspicious time has arrived, the ceremony of inviting the immortals is about to begin!" With a rough shout, the long-awaited ceremony of inviting the immortals is finally about to begin.

The host, Tianquanxing Ningguang, was seen slowly walking down from the platform.

This is a very elegant adult. She has soft and flowing silver hair, a pair of beautiful red eyes, and a cheongsam that sets off her curvy figure and slender and graceful thighs.

Ling Mengxue's eyes were wide open. There was such a beauty in the world! And I heard that Tianquanxing Ningguang was also a top businessman! She was rich and beautiful! She was simply the best among the queens!

I'm afraid that no matter who it is, it would be difficult to resist the temptation of a rich woman with fair skin and beautiful looks.

"As expected, he is the leader of the legendary Seven Stars of Liyue!" Ling Mengxue exclaimed.

Ningguang looked around and saw nothing unusual. She then walked slowly to the incense burner that had already been placed. Looking at the offerings that had already been placed on it, she nodded with satisfaction. The required offerings were all good. Everyone knew that Liyue paid the most attention to contracts, but what they didn't know was that Liyue's folk customs and etiquette were as important as contracts. On such an important day, you can't be careless.

Now that everything is ready, the ceremony of inviting the immortals can officially begin.

Ningguang's expression became much more serious than before. Her serious look made the people of Liyue in the audience feel more at ease.

This is their Seven Stars Leader - Lady Ningguang. She is still so serious and reliable.

"The auspicious time has arrived! The ceremony of inviting the gods begins now!"

After saying this, Ningguang quickly formed seals with her hands, and a circle of rock elements soon surrounded her body. As Ningguang's slender hands turned, the rock elements that were originally around her flew to the side of the incense burner and lingered there.

"Friend, are you here to watch the ceremony of inviting the immortals as well?" A familiar voice suddenly came from behind.

"Mr. Zhongli!" Ling Mengxue turned around in surprise. She didn't thank Zhongli properly last time and only gave him the bottle of wine that was intended for Wendy. She felt a little embarrassed.

"Hutao is here too."

"Hi, you are here as expected. What a coincidence, I can actually meet you among so many people." Hu Tao was obviously very surprised to see Ling Mengxue in the crowd. Today is the most crowded day in Liyue Harbor in the year.

"Well, I heard that this invitation to the immortals only happens once a year. I have never seen it, so I naturally want to come and see it."

With Ningguang's manipulation, the rock element resonated, and a golden rock-attribute light column rose from the ground and pierced the sky.

The sky suddenly changed color. The originally blue sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds. In the thick clouds, a dragon was looming and circling.

"! It's actually a dragon." Ling Mengxue looked at the giant dragon hovering in the sky and hugged the plush toy in her hand tightly. It must be said that this toy is very well made.

However, something unexpected happened soon. With a loud noise, a dark golden dragon rolled down from the clouds. Suddenly, thick smoke rose up.

When the smoke cleared, everyone was shocked to find that the being that had fallen on the incense table and knocked over the offerings was actually the divine body that was flying in the clouds just now!

In just a moment, the only god in the hearts of the Liyue people, who had protected Liyue for three thousand years - Emperor Yanwang, fell quietly in front of them like a broken statue.

"What on earth happened!" Everyone was thrown into chaos in an instant.

Ningguang no longer cared about being elegant or not at this moment, and hurried forward to check on the Emperor's condition.

However, shocking news soon came. Ningguang solemnly announced: "The Emperor has been murdered. Seal off the scene!"
