Comprehensive comics, this god is a bit disdainful.

Until a few years ago, the demon dragon Ursa, who had been wreaking havoc in Mondstadt for many years, was killed by the passing Dr. Fool Executive.

The big monster on Inazuma's side also died because of the dark disaster caused by Kanria 500 years ago, and only Yae Shenzi, the little fox from back then, died.

Because of the death of his sister, the God of Thunder directly secluded himself in the pure land, and created an AI thunder and lightning general to help her manage Dao Wife.

Sumeru... don’t mention it!

From what we can see so far, Liyue has the most power left over after the Demon God War!

Then there will be Immortal Teacher and Stigmata as school promotions!

Zhong Rui believes that this Immortal Invitation Ceremony will definitely make most Liyue people accept him as the new god of Liyue!

At least, there will be no public opinion that the new rock god is inferior to the old rock god...

Alas, if he was succeeded by Fengshen, he wouldn't have to worry about this kind of public opinion...

Now he is just like Nasida, the little grass god of Sumeru. Because the previous generation was too capable, it would be difficult for him to leave a reliable impression in the hearts of believers if he was not outstanding enough.

"But...how to invite those immortals to teach?"

Keqing actually had some resistance to inviting immortals to teach.

But it is undeniable that even the best teacher in Liyue today does not dare to say that his knowledge is richer than that of the immortals.

But that’s a fairy!

An existence that basically only appears in stories and teleportations!

Moreover, immortals don’t like to interfere in worldly affairs. Are they really willing to put aside their status and become teachers?

"About this..."

Zhong Rui smiled evilly, came to Zhong Li, patted his shoulder intimately, and introduced to Ke Qing.

"Let me introduce! This is the former Rock God and the ancestor of all immortals in Liyue, the Rock King Emperor!"

"Eh? Eh——!?"

Keqing looked at Zhongli in shock. She didn't expect that he was actually the King of Rocks! ?

The Hall of Rebirth can actually treat Emperor Yanwang as a guest!

Zhongli's reputation had spread to Keqing's ears a long time ago. He had considerable knowledge, especially many unique insights into history.

In addition, he was one of the few people in Liyue who would not overly brag about the achievements of Emperor Yan. Ke Qing had thought of inviting him to work under her before.

It was a pity that his way of thinking was too similar to that of the emperor, which led to her not making the invitation in the end.

Thinking about it now, no wonder Zhongli has so many connections and knows so much.

But all this abnormality has become reasonable because of the exposure of his true identity.

"The gods are in the past, and now I am just an ordinary person named Zhongli."

Zhongli picked up the hot tea and took a sip lightly, not caring that Zhong Rui exposed his identity to Keqing.

He understood Yu Hengxing's personality and knew that she would not make her identity public.

Besides, he had tricked Zhong Rui into being the Rock God, but he didn't expect that he would grow so fast and even master the power of space.

Now that he sees Zhong Rui's talents and methods, Zhong Li is completely relieved and entrusts Liyue to him, and enjoys a peaceful retirement life.

Keqing's excitement also calmed down, but her attitude was much more reserved than before. After all, she was facing two gods from Liyue's past and present.

Although these two people have approachable personalities, whoever is sitting here would probably feel uncomfortable, right?

Chapter 39 Zhongli: I was careless, I didn’t dodge

"I will ask those old friends, and I can also let them see Liyue today and witness the enthronement of the new god of Liyue."

"Liyue in the future is an era where immortals and gods coexist with humans. Immortals are also part of all living beings in Liyue. To me, they are my people just like the people of Liyue."

"Really, that's really exciting..."

Zhongli smiled and poured a cup of tea for Zhong Rui, and also poured tea for the somewhat reserved Keqing.

Is it an era when immortals and gods walk with humans... This was the case in Liyue in the past.

No, Liyue in the past should have been an era where gods and gods guided everyone, but now Zhong Rui wants to turn guidance into peers.

Is that why he fell in love with Keqing?

Being stared at by Zhongli and Zhong Rui, Keqing raised her head and looked at them, trying hard not to look so nervous.

"Ke Qing, I know you want Liyue to become an era dominated by humans. I respect your idea. It is precisely because there are people like you in Liyue that I believe that the future will be an era where gods and gods coexist. , if we only rely on the strength of Liyue people, I am afraid that Liyue’s future will become extremely difficult.”

Thinking of Yu Hengxing's character, Zhong Rui planned to do some ideological work for her now.

The idea of ​​trying to solve problems as a human being is great.

But it would be foolish to leave the gods, who are more efficient and effective, to not cooperate and to rely on manpower to solve everything.

In the future Liyue, he will make the best use of both the power of immortals and mortals.

"But Lord Zhong Rui, should all the credit for supporting Liyue through thousands of years be attributed to the wisdom of the immortal gods?"

Even when facing two gods, one of whom was the Yanwang Emperor who had ruled Liyue for 700 years, Ke Qing still expressed her doubts in a firm tone.

"I don't think so. What really deserves praise are the people of Liyue who have been working hard in Liyue for thousands of years!"

If you feel you are right, then speak up loudly instead of blindly obeying the ideas of gods and gods.

This is Keqing's philosophy. Even if he faces two generations of rock gods, he will not retreat even half a step!

"That's right. The prosperity of Liyue as a country depends not only on the oracle of King Yan, but also on the countless people of Liyue who responded to the contract."

Zhongli also agreed very much with Ke Qing's statement. Liyue now exaggerates the achievements of Emperor Yanwang, but instead downplays the efforts of the immortal gods and those people with just one sentence.

This was not what he wanted to see.

But the people of Liyue had almost blind trust and respect for him, the Rock King, and he himself could not change this.

"Keqing, do you still remember what I said just now? Immortals and Liyue people are all subjects in my eyes."

Seeing that Keqing was a little excited, Zhong Rui repeated his position again.

The reason why Keqing became "disrespectful of immortals and gods" actually had a lot to do with the public opinion in Liyue Port.

The people of Liyue impose all their beautiful fantasies on the mysterious immortal gods, as if they are omnipotent, so there are immortal seekers who want to take advantage of others.

"I am not denying the efforts of the Liyue people for thousands of years. The prosperity of Liyue Port is their best proof, but it is undeniable that today's peace was obtained through the sacrifices of countless immortal gods and Liyue ancestors. "

"I...I'm sorry, what I said just now seemed to negate the efforts of the gods..."

Realizing the mistake in what she just said, Keqing immediately apologized to the two of them.

Because Keqing noticed that she made the same mistake as those teahouse storytellers.

They all exaggerate one party and downplay the efforts and sacrifices made by the other party.

The stories of many immortals and gods in Liyue are by no means groundless. Whether it was the original Guiliyuan or the current Liyue Port, the construction of these two cities relied not only on human strength, but also on the protection of immortals and gods.

Immortals have protected Liyue for thousands of years. This is a kindness that must never be forgotten...

"It's okay. Today's Liyue Port overemphasizes the achievements of the immortals and gods, especially the Emperor Yanwang, but there is very little memory of the ancestors. It is a mistake for people to blindly follow the instructions of the gods without thinking."

"Keqing, your idea is correct. Immortals are also living beings in Liyue. They have feelings, and they can also be happy, angry, sad, and happy like humans. Naturally, they can also make mistakes like humans. But many people ignore this and put immortals away. From a high position.”

Ke Qing looked at Zhong Rui with sparkling eyes. She didn't expect to hear words of affirmation from Liyue's current god!

"Lord Zhong Rui..."

The most important thing is that Zhong Rui does not simply think that she is disrespectful to the gods!

Instead, listen carefully to her words to understand the concept she wants to express!

"In order to reach Liyue, where my ideal man and the gods walk hand in hand, Keqing, you are indispensable. Can you lend me your power?"

"I am willing!"

Seeing that Keqing's favorability reached 90, Zhong Rui smiled.

Not only did I win the most difficult one among the seven stars, Ke Qing, but I can also gain faith from her in the future. It is worthy of me!

Thinking of this, Zhong Rui couldn't help but glance at Zhong Li beside him. The saying that Liyue's people are all emperor chefs is not an exaggeration.

Although Keqing is considered by others to be disrespectful to immortals and gods, she actually has many clay figures and souvenirs of the emperor in her home.

Thinking of transforming his loyal little disciple into his shape in front of Zhongli, Zhong Rui's smile became even brighter.

"By the way, the first time you came to me was about choosing a school location, right?"

"Well, do you think this land is suitable? Although after hearing your plans for the future school, I feel that this land is too small..."

Keqing also adjusted her mood and took out the drawings prepared in advance from the storage space of the Eye of God and placed them in front of the two of them.

Zhong Rui glanced at the location on the drawing. It was a prosperous area near Yujing Terrace, but the area was indeed not large.

But in Liyue Port, where every inch of land is precious, this piece of land may be worth a small fortune.

"Let this land be used for a museum. I have other plans regarding the location of the school."

"museum?"

"It's where the antiques are displayed."

"Antique?! You..."

Seeing that Keqing had misunderstood what he meant, Zhong Rui immediately interrupted her.

"Keqing, what do you think is the most valuable thing about antiques?"

"...history?"

"Yes, it is its history and the story behind it. The antiques displayed in this museum are to let the people of Liyue better understand the stories of the martyrs of Liyue."

"The reason why stories about immortals and gods are widely circulated in Liyue Port today is precisely because the world does not understand those pioneers who sacrificed themselves for Liyue. This is also the first step to change Liyue Port."

"So that's your plan... I thought you were doing it for your own selfish reasons... I'm sorry!"

Ke Qing felt guilty and apologized to Zhong Rui, because there are often rich people in Liyue Port who just occupy a shop and display their collections.

She just subconsciously thought that Zhong Rui had this plan too...

Well, she really underestimated the new gods' structure.
