Throughout the journey, Jiang Mu had been pondering how he should approach the renowned Lord Tianquan.
Does it mean we have to be as subservient as everyone else?
Still want to (????)?? Hi
Or you could say ┌( ′_ゝ` )┐
………………
Discarding some of his unrealistic ideas, Jiang Mu followed Ke Qing to the palace gate.
After opening the door, Ke Qing stepped aside.
"This is……"
Jiang Mu was a little confused.
"Lord Tianquan only invited you here for a short chat, so we should naturally leave."
Ke Qing said coldly.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Mu inwardly grumbled.
"Luckily it was me. If it had been some other lecherous guy, who knows what kind of R18 scene would have happened..."
"Lord Tianquan is the holder of the Geo-attribute Vision."
As if knowing what Jiang Mu was thinking, Ke Qing said calmly.
"So you don't need to worry about your safety. In case of a crisis, Lady Ningguang will protect you."
"Cough cough..."
Jiang Mu coughed a few times, then said awkwardly.
"Well, I still have the ability to protect myself..." Jiang Mu said with a dry laugh.
Ke Qing glanced at him silently, said nothing, and simply gestured for him to go inside.
………………
"Hello."
When Jiang Mu entered, he was surprised to find that the once bustling Qunyu Pavilion was now unusually deserted, and even the three secretaries who appeared in the story were nowhere to be found.
At this moment, Ningguang was standing next to her usual work desk, looking at him with a smile.
Then... (You all know what Ningguang looks like, so I won't describe it here to avoid accusations of padding the word count, hehe~)
"Lord Ningguang."
Jiang Mu lowered his head as a sign of respect.
“No need for such formalities,” Ningguang said with a smile.
"I invited you here today only to ask you a question, little brother Jiang Mu."
"Well……"
Jiang Mu was taken aback, then smiled wryly.
"Please just call me Jiang Mu, little brother or whatever..."
"Oh, you're blushing. Are you shy?"
Seemingly very interested in Jiang Mu's reaction, Ning Guang persisted.
"..."
Jiang Mu simply stopped explaining and stared directly at Ning Guang.
"Alright, alright..." Ningguang waved her hand dismissively.
"I'm not kidding you anymore. I called you here mainly to discuss what you've been doing in Liyue Harbor lately..."
"What, does Lady Ningguang think that my recent activities are harmful to Liyue Harbor?"
Jiang Mu asked with a smile.
“I remember that I reported to the General Affairs Department before the shop opened, and I paid my taxes on time every month without any tax evasion. In fact, to maintain fair competition in the industry, I even set up a daily limited supply strategy. There aren’t many conscientious citizens like me these days…”
"Alright." Ningguang waved her hand impatiently. "I didn't call you here for this. If you keep arguing with me, I'll go find Gan Yu and have a good talk with you."
"This... let's forget about it..."
Upon hearing that Gan Yu was coming, Jiang Mu immediately cowered... cough cough, he went along with it.
"So, what exactly did you call me here for...?"
Jiang Mu asked with a smile, a bead of cold sweat slowly trickling down his forehead.
“It’s nothing really.” Ningguang smiled upon hearing this.
"I've come to chat with you, my friend from another world, about some things related to your world."
"this……"
"Don't misunderstand." As if she could see through Jiang Mu's thoughts, Ning Guang said calmly.
"The Seven Stars, and even the Emperor himself, had no intention of going to other worlds. Before you, many travelers from other worlds had arrived in Liyue. We had similar conversations with them, and after that, we did not interfere with their actions. On the contrary, we provided them with great convenience."
“Of course.” Ningguang’s eyes suddenly sharpened. “The Seven Stars throughout history have dealt with many otherworldly visitors who wanted to disrupt the order of Liyue.”
"deal with……"
Jiang Mu's throat suddenly became dry.
"However, your actions can be said to have injected new vitality into Liyue's commerce. At least for now, no Star Guardian believes you will pose a threat to Liyue."
"That's good..." Hearing this, Jiang Mu finally felt relieved.
"Could I see the records left by previous travelers?"
"Oh?" Ningguang smiled, not expecting him to pull this stunt.
“Of course.” Ningguang stood up, looked on the bookshelf next to her, and then took out a thick document.
"It's all here, take a look for yourself."
"good!"
Jiang Mu eagerly opened the book.
Ningguang didn't disturb him. She just sat quietly to the side, working on her own tasks, occasionally glancing up at Jiang Mu before looking down again.
Holy crap!
At this moment, Jiang Mu's heart was filled with turbulent waves.
"On [date], a traveler dressed entirely in black arrived in Liyue. After a friendly exchange, it was decided to assign him to work at the Hall of the Dead. A few days later, news came that the traveler had died suddenly. An investigation revealed that the traveler wanted to promote his hometown's funeral rites in Liyue, but because the content and form were too flamboyant, he was rejected by the people. Later, he got into a dispute with the residents of Wuwangpo and was beaten to death by the local mob."
"On [date], a traveler in military uniform arrived in Liyue. After speaking with him, it was discovered that his original country was very similar to Inazuma. Out of humanitarian spirit, Qixing decided to send him to Inazuma. Several months later, he led a large number of Inazuma-specific sea monsters and wild beasts to invade Liyue. After capturing him, it was learned that he was originally a war criminal from the original world who came to Teyvat because of his suicide attempt by jumping into the sea. After Qixing's research, it was decided to send him to Guyun Pavilion, where the Thousand Rock Army would supervise his suicide attempt, so as to fulfill his dream."
"On [date], a traveler arrived in Teyvat and was discovered by Dr. Fatui, an executive officer, who turned him into a biological weapon. He was later discovered and eliminated by Gan Yu, the secretary of the Seven Stars, thus saving Liyue from a biological crisis."
"On [date], a traveler arrived in Liyue, bringing with him otherworldly cuisine. He was warmly welcomed by the people of Liyue, but due to his dedication, he eventually succumbed to exhaustion and died young, which is truly a pity."
...
"On [date], a traveler arrived in Liyue. The Emperor said that this traveler could bring new life to Liyue, and that we should befriend him and avoid conflict. As things stand, the Emperor's words are quite true..."
This last one should be me...
Jiang Mu murmured, then turned to look at Ning Guang.
"Lord Ningguang..."
