"Oh...by the way, when are you free? Can I invite you to Xin Yuexuan for dinner?"

"........."

I have to say that when they saw Zhongli's appearance in the video, the expressions of the Liyue Seven Stars, who had been watching the video very seriously, looked quite meaningful.

"I always feel... that after changing his name to Zhongli, the emperor in front of me seems to behave more and more like an ordinary person."

While talking to herself softly, Keqing, who had been watching the video silently, couldn't help but frown slightly.

Although I had already understood that Zhongli had transformed into an ordinary person, but... looking at the majestic emperor in the past, he actually invited Ying and Paimon to dinner as if he were meeting old friends. Even if It was Liyue Qixing, and they were still somewhat shocked.

However... although it is a bit unbelievable that the King of Rocks would treat travelers to dinner——

But obviously, an even more outrageous scene unfolded in the next moment.

The Zhongli in front of him seemed to have completely lost the majesty of the emperor... At this moment, he was as kind as an old man who had just got off work. He was standing by the railing quite leisurely, his voice and expression All showed unprecedented kindness——

"Is this what the emperor will do after he retires..."

While holding his chin, the condensed light at this moment seemed somewhat unexpected——

Her tone also trembled a bit at this moment:

"I really can't imagine that after 700 years, the emperor would take the initiative to dethrone the rock god and become so kind and amiable..."

"...Perhaps, time has smoothed out all the edges of the emperor - if the emperor is so eager to retire, then he will definitely be quite happy to be relieved of his burden."

While gently responding to Ke Qing's words, Ningguang in front of him also said seriously:

"Although the emperor's retirement... is indeed surprising, he seems to be happier than ever now, doesn't he?"

"It's true..."

While he nodded lightly, Keqing in front of him was also quite serious and said something like this:

"So, since the emperor has turned into a mortal and wanders around in this world...then we cannot let down his expectations and watch."

"...I sincerely hope that Liyue will get better and better in the future~"

After saying these words quite seriously, Ke Qing and Ning Guang continued to watch the live video Q&A room in silence.

..

At this moment... let's go back to the live video Q&A room.

Seeing the relaxed look on the retired Yanhuang Emperor again... Ying and Paimon's expressions were somewhat surprising——

After all, isn't it good that my friend finally got away from his thousands of years of ruling and settled down on the land that he has guarded for thousands of years?

And when he heard that Zhongli wanted to invite them to New Moon Pavilion for dinner, little Paimon in front of him was even more surprised——

Perhaps driven by a spirit of doubt, little Paimon put his hands on his hips and glanced at Zhongli in front of him with a rather subtle look:

"Stop bragging... Zhongli, if you said you could treat us to Sanwanbu Hong Kong, I might still believe it - but Xinyue Xuan even charges for tea, you Can you really afford it?"

"Forehead......."

To be honest, although little Paimon's words were really unpleasant, they did make Zhongli feel quite embarrassed.

A knowing blow belongs to yes.

After a brief silence, Zhongli himself readily admitted such a fact that left everyone speechless:

"To be honest... Maura is really not enough."

"...So, why is Morax missing Mora?"

"... Regarding this, it is actually easy to explain."

Seeing the puzzled expressions of Ying and Paimeng, Zhongli, who was already free and light, nodded lightly - and then explained to Ying and Paimon seriously:

"According to common rationality... As the Rock King Morax, I can naturally create Mora easily."

"But...since I have chosen the identity of a mortal like Zhongli, I should follow the rules of a mortal - right?"

That's it.

At this moment, Zhongli said after a brief pause:

"Although the Heart of God is still in my hands during the journey I took with you, I know that I will step down from the position of the Seven Gods, so how can I not make some predictions about the new life in the future?"

"...Is that so?"

After hearing Mr. Zhongli's explanation that he always had no money, to be honest, although Ying now knew a lot of things that he had never known in the past——

But I have to say... Even so, if you think carefully about the current situation that the emperor always has no money, you still seem a little embarrassed.

However, although Ying and Paimon were indeed speechless about the situation in front of them, they still didn't say much when faced with the relaxed Zhongli in front of them.

After all, for Morax, Mora is just an insignificant piece of him, something that can be easily obtained like crumbs... If Di Shejun is to be able to understand immediately that he has no money. It may take some time for Hua to adapt to this situation~

As if he understood this very well, little Paimon nodded seriously at this moment, and then made this strategic summary in a tone of great enlightenment:

"So, everything is clear now - Zhongli is still not used to being unable to transform himself into Mora, so he has become a social waste who goes around eating and possessing for free..."

"Well...that just cost the Fool some money, so there's no need to describe me like this."

Perhaps because he had some objections to little Paimon's words, Zhongli held his chin at this moment, and his whole tone became a little embarrassed:

"And...in this trading capital, people exchange not only money and goods, but also knowledge, memory and vision, as well as identities, roles and lives."

"So... As a god, no matter how much Morax descends to earth as Lord Yan and "lives with the people", in the end he still can't compare to the feeling of being a real mortal like Zhongli - only the experience of being there Only by understanding it can everything be understood.”

"...It seems that it is indeed clear."

Faced with Zhongli's words, even little Paimon couldn't help but nod slowly at this moment.

After all... Although Zhongli really doesn't look at his wallet when paying, and he also seriously lacks common sense - but it has to be said.The turmoil in this world, after so many days of empire, actually the emperor must have understood it in his heart~

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Zhongli at this moment was able to say such a sentence quite seriously:

"I hope that in the future of Liyue, I can integrate into this country called Liyue as much as possible and become a real citizen——"

"I have been watching this land from the perspective of a guardian for thousands of years... But only today can I feel the pulse of this era and feel the heartbeat of Liyue personally."

"Being able to experience the ups and downs of happiness as a mortal, perhaps this is the most fortunate thing for me as the Emperor of the Rock King."

"........."

Watching the video Q&A live broadcast room, Emperor Yanwang said this sentence——

Almost instantly, the people of Liyue who had been watching the video silently all felt their bodies trembling slightly unconsciously.

Perhaps he never expected that the emperor would turn into a mortal named Zhongli with such a mentality... At this moment, Tian Tie, the storyteller who has been telling the story of the emperor's legendary achievements in the past, His mouth couldn't help but burst into tears in an instant.

Looking at the video, the emperor who no longer had any airs, what appeared in front of Tian Tiezui's eyes was still the image of the emperor who fought in all directions during the war between demons and gods thousands of years ago...

Nothing has changed, the emperor is still the God of Rock who cares about Liyue...

Whether he is fighting as a god or living on this land as an ordinary person named "Zhongli", the emperor has always been silently protecting Liyue (the land of gods) in his own way. .

It is precisely because I understand this... When I see the emperor who has changed his name to Zhongli in the video, Tian Tiezui in the Wanmin Hall, his mood has surged to an unprecedented level:

"The age of immortals has really passed..."

"However, even if time has passed, the emperor will continue to silently watch over Liyue's land, environment and human relations in his own way..."

"Emperor!"

Looking at the kind-hearted Zhongli in the video, all the viewers and friends in the live video Q&A room burst into tears instantly——

In the blink of an eye, the diners in Wanmin Hall once again gathered around the usually taciturn emperor, and their thanks filled the Wanmin Hall at this moment.

"Emperor..."

Looking at the video Q&A live broadcast room, the "Zhongli" who stood at the railing and observed silently, who had retired from the position of emperor, at this moment, she, who has always valued emotions, couldn't help but shed two lines of tears:

"Emperor...please come to have dinner with me from time to time..."

At this moment, the perspective turns to the seven stars in Liyue.

At this moment, Ning Guang's mood was quite complicated.

After a brief silence...it seemed as if Zhongli had just recovered from the incident of handing over everything to the management of Liyue Qixing. He had always had a firm belief in the King of Rock, Ning Guang, who had deep feelings for Liyue, finally seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, and instantly felt a certain sourness rising on the tip of his nose.

Perhaps it was because of the emperor's trust and that smile that Ningguang felt trusted and cared for, or perhaps he truly felt that he had become something that would make his poor, weak self proud... ..At this moment, Tianquan, who had always seemed to be extremely deep in the city, could not help but blush when he thought about it.

From the lowest level to the master of the Jade Pavilion hovering over Liyue, from that lonely little girl to the top wealthy businessman in Liyue... Ningguang has experienced too much heartache and suffering, and also Understand the suffering of life in this world——

People in Liyue define Ningguang's life as a legend...but who can truly understand that all the glory and pride are indescribable without the bitterness behind them?

As a Seven Star, Ningguang naturally understands that he must be strong enough to lead Liyue to a more prosperous future.

But...even though she was so strong in her heart, she was still completely touched by the clear smile of the emperor who had become a mortal.

Now that the emperor has handed over everything to him...then, as the Tianquan among the Seven Stars of Liyue, Ningguang certainly understands that he has no reason to live up to it, right?

so.......

"Have a good journey, Emperor."

And it was at this very moment that the live video Q&A room continued to slowly start to play scenes about the future.

......

At this moment, let’s return to the video.

"Absolutely...that's it."

After explaining his true intentions to Ying and Paimon, Zhongli showed a very moving smile at this moment, and then continued:

"Haha... Although it may be a little late to say it now, Ying, I still need to express my gratitude to you - as Zhongli, I will also cherish the memory of walking with you in Liyue. "

"Although the journey to the farewell ceremony was not that long... it also made me understand better what it would be like to live in Liyue and become an ordinary citizen - I am very happy. , I can also walk with you.”

"...Needless to say, I didn't actually help much."

Looking at the Emperor Yanwang who expressed his gratitude to him quite seriously in front of him, even Ying himself felt somewhat embarrassed.

Under such a situation...she just waved her hand, and her whole words and deeds showed a certain amount of embarrassment:

"...Furthermore, the preparation process for this ceremony of sending immortals is also a good journey for me~"

"I'm glad you feel the same way."

At this moment, Zhongli paused briefly——

After a while, as if he finally figured something out...he gently said this:

"But... although the journey is indeed very nostalgic, any travel companion will have to part ways."

"Well, that's right! After all, it may be time to set off and continue the journey to find the Seven Gods!"

He just nodded lightly. At this moment, little Paimon was holding his chin, his eyebrows turning slightly——

Maybe everything has been solved... Xiao Guan's mood has become quite happy.

Now that the incident in Liyue has been resolved, their journey will continue soon!

So everything that follows...in what direction should it develop?

If Liyue didn't find any clues... Can Ying still find traces of her brother in the next country, and find the god who fought with her 500 years ago... ...?

At this moment, even little Paimon himself couldn't help but feel worried.

However... worries are worries. In fact, little Paimon still has some expectations for everything that may happen in the future.

"It seems that you are all ready."

Zhongli just waved his hand and looked at the two sworn travelers in front of him. Zhongli seemed relieved and breathed a sigh of relief——

But...it seems like there is something else I want to explain to the travelers,

"If we want to continue the journey, I'm afraid there will be some difficulties because Liyue's maritime neighbor: Dao Zhi, is currently under lockdown."

".......Eh?"

As if they were somewhat confused by what the Rock King said and did at this moment, both Ying and Paimon's expressions became quite confused at this moment.

The rice wife locks the country...?what does that mean?

As if he didn't understand what was going on at all, little Paimon also asked after a short silence:
