"Hey, don't be so picky. There's not much difference." Ling Mengxue is now very familiar with Philgodette, so she feels free to joke around.

"I'm sorry, boss." Ying was obviously different and hurriedly changed her words to apologize.

"It's okay, it's okay, I won't say any more. You all have other things to do. Don't delay, just go." Philgodette knew that they still had very important things to do, so she didn't plan to disturb them any further.

"Do we still need to continue looking for other immortals?" Ying looked at Ling Mengxue and asked seriously.

"I think we can trust Xiao. He said he would inform the other immortals, and he should do it." Ling Mengxue absolutely trusts Xiao in this regard. She believes that Xiao will convey the news of the Emperor's assassination to the other immortals in full.

"Then shall we go back to find the young master now?" Paimeng asked curiously. Since there was no need to look for other immortals, could they go back and ask the young master what to do next?

"I think there is no other way. It may take some time to wait for news from Xiao and other immortals." Ling Mengxue thought about it and decided to meet the young master first to see what this young master is up to.

After returning to Liyue Port, I soon found the young master. He was still as cynical as ever.

"You guys, didn't you come back too quickly? How were the results of your trip to Jueyunjian?" The young master seemed very surprised. He didn't expect that they would come back in less than half a day?

"Hehe, we didn't go to Jueyunjian. Xiaoxue knows one of the immortals. The immortal named Demon Subduing Great Sage said that he would tell the other immortals about the assassination of the Emperor on our behalf." Paimeng was still the same, always speaking quickly.

"...You didn't go to Jueyunjian! I..." The young master felt as if his eyes were darkening. He had originally wanted to use Ying's power to find out more about the Liyue Immortal, but how could it turn out like this? It was all the fault of this white-haired boy!

"Have you ever heard how the Great Sage who Conquers Demons calls other immortals?" The young man still didn't want to give up and wanted to struggle, even if it was just a few words.

"Let me think about it, let me think about it, it seems that Xiao said that he wanted to look for the three True Lords, Xueyue, Lishui and Liuyun." Ling Mengxue didn't know what the young master was thinking at the moment, so she told him everything.

"Well, these names have never appeared in the intelligence held by the Fatui." After hearing Ling Mengxue's answer, the young master felt a little relieved. After all, he knew a little bit of information. With the intelligence network of the Fatui, it should not be difficult to find out the information of these immortals.

"By the way, as a return gift, I also have new information to provide you." After calming down his uneasy emotions, the young master finally continued his mission.

"The reaction of the Liyue Seven Stars to the death of the deity is very intriguing... They announced to the public that since the real culprit has not yet been found, no one is allowed to see the 'Immortal Ancestor's Metamorphosis'."

"What is the "Immortal Ancestor's Metamorphosis"? " Ling Mengxue had never heard of this term before, so she asked naturally. Paimeng and Ying on the side also expressed their curiosity.

"It's actually very easy to understand. According to Liyue's common sense, the Rock King is also an immortal. The Rock God is the God of Contracts, and is also known as the ancestor of all immortals. All of the "Three-Eyed Five-Manifested Immortals" today have made a contract to protect Liyue." The young master explained to them very seriously.

So that's why Xiao always talks about contracts. I think he was influenced by the Rock King. Since he is the God of Contract, he must value contracts very much. It's a pity that protecting Liyue is easy to say. Even the Rock King himself wanted to give up his responsibility and go fishing. How could Xiao, such an upright guy, continue to stick to it stubbornly? When Ling Mengxue thought of this, she couldn't help but think of the scene where Xiao was fighting demons alone in Dihua Island. She first met him in that field of reeds.

"The immortal named Xiao said that he would not shirk his responsibilities. So this is what he meant." Paimon looked thoughtful.

"The soul of the Rock God ascended to the sky, leaving behind a body. Why would it be hidden by the Seven Stars? It's really suspicious..." The young master said while watching everyone's expressions. His plan had been disrupted to some extent. He hoped that there would be no more trouble in the future. Otherwise, how would he explain to the organization!

"This won't do. It's very troubling to me." Ying remembered the purpose of her coming to Liyue. Wasn't it to find the God of Rock? Even if the God of Rock had already passed away, she still needed to go forward and take a closer look. Even if there was only a slight possibility that she could get news about her brother Kong, no matter what it was, she would try her best.

"If the Seven Stars of Liyue hide the "Immortal Ancestor's Transmutation" and don't let anyone get close to it... then Ying's goal will fail! Oh, this won't work." Paimeng was still the same as always, he just said whatever he was thinking.

"Don't worry, isn't this why I'm here? I've found someone who can help you break the impasse. We've said a lot today, and it's getting late. Let's meet tomorrow at the old place - Northland Bank." The young master looked at Ying, whose face showed anxiety, and knew that his plan had succeeded. The fish had been hooked, and now it was time for him, Tartaglia, to show his acting skills.

"You guys, is there a possibility? I'm just saying it's possible that Prince Yan is just tired and wants to retire early? Now that Liyue is out of the control of the immortals, it seems to be doing pretty well under the governance of the Liyue Seven Stars." Ling Mengxue threw out her thoughts without thinking.

"! You said that Yan Shen was faking his death?" Paimon was obviously frightened by such remarks, and his eyes widened.

"No way..." Ying was also very surprised when she heard this idea. What a bold guess! Besides, Yan Shen has always attached great importance to contracts, so why would he suddenly want to unload the burden of a thousand years and choose to fake his death?

"...Your idea is very dangerous, young man. How can you slander the recently deceased God of Rock?" Although the young master thought that the speculation of the young man in front of him might be true, the God of Rock, as the longest-lived god, was assassinated in public. Who in the world could have such ability? It is really hard to understand. But if it is the speculation of the young man in front of him, it might be possible. Nowadays, except for relying on the oracle of God of Rock once a year, Liyue is almost under the control of the seven stars of Liyue. Liyue has been away from the control of immortals for a long time. It is obviously an era of human rule here. Even God of Rock will probably get tired one day.

"This is just an immature guess of mine, and... I feel that Ningguang seems to know something. Don't you think that after confirming the death of Yan Shen, she was too calm?" Ling Mengxue continued to express her thoughts.

That's right, from Ningguang's subsequent performance, it seemed like this was a conspiracy she had planned. Everything happened too suddenly and too naturally, which made people have to doubt it. Perhaps Ningguang, as the leader of the Seven Stars, had already started planning all this.
