【Hu Tao】：As expected of the Jade Star, you're truly daring!
【Hu Tao】：If it were me, I wouldn't dare go to the Jueyun Karst to apologize to a deity.
【Xingqiu】：You're right, maybe it's precisely that kind of daring spirit that made Lady Keqing the Jade Star?
【Xiangling】：Oh my, it's getting me all fired up! Even novels wouldn't dare write something like this!
【Ningguang】：I never expected Keqing to take responsibility for all the mistakes herself, I underestimated her willpower.
【Ningguang】：She bridged the gap between the Liyue Qixing and the Celestials. With that, the conflict and estrangement between the two sides are resolved.
【Xianyun】：Hehehe... This is truly unexpected, even for this immortal.
【Xianyun】：I thought it would be a war of words, but it turned out to be so smooth.
【Li Shui Taishan】：Suddenly I'm envious of my alternate-world self, to have the opportunity to rebuild past glories.
【Xue Yue Zhuyang】：Indeed, although the calamity on our side has subsided, it's ultimately just a temporary fix.
【Xue Yue Zhuyang】：As this generation of Liyue Qixing passes, the next generation's quality might not surpass this one, and the generation after that might be even worse.
【Xue Yue Zhuyang】：As time passes, internal strife is bound to erupt again.
【Xue Yue Zhuyang】：Humanity's flaws guarantee this outcome, guaranteeing that they are unfit to be leaders.
【Zhongli】：So this path truly works?
【Zhongli】：Mr. Su Mu's plan, it's actually being implemented by Keqing.
【Zhongli②】：Yeah... I also didn't expect Keqing to become the breakthrough point for the plan.
【Zhongli②】：Unfortunately, not every era will give birth to someone like her to lead Liyue to glory.
【Zhongli②】：Therefore, I hope you'll consider Mr. Su Mu's proposal. For Liyue, it's the most suitable path.
【Zhongli】：I'll consider the feasibility of this plan.
As the deities brought Keqing back to the Jade Chamber.
Ganyu, who had gone to Wangshu Inn to invite the Yaksha, also returned to Liyue Harbor.
Led by Ningguang, the Liyue Qixing and the Liyue deities sat together for the first time in hundreds of years.
"Fellow immortals, allow me to explain the current situation in Liyue." As the spokesperson, Ningguang stood up and spoke.
"Currently, a large number of Fatui are stationed within Liyue Harbor."
"They have always had their eyes on Liyue, and now they will only become more arrogant."
"Oh? Is that so?" Xue Yue Zhuyang Zhenjun, transformed into human form, frowned and said sternly, "Why not take action directly and eliminate them?"
"Immortal, you don't know. The Fatui are an army trained by Snezhnaya."
"They possess the most advanced technology in Teyvat, and their individual combat strength can be considered the strongest in Teyvat."
"If we act rashly, we are bound to suffer heavy losses. We cannot lose combat capability at this crucial moment."
"Moreover, the Fatui also represent Snezhnaya. If we make a rash move, it will give Snezhnaya an opportunity to declare war, which would be detrimental to us."
"However, something strange is..." Ningguang frowned slightly, "Logically speaking, the Fatui should have taken advantage of this opportunity to stir up trouble, but they haven't made any moves."
After hearing Ningguang's explanation.
The brows of the deities furrowed even deeper.
At this moment, they felt nothing but anger in their chests.
If the Rex Lapis were still here, who would dare to act so arrogantly in Liyue Harbor?
Now, Rex Lapis' contract power has suddenly disappeared, and they can no longer contact him.
Therefore, for the sake of the greater good, they had to suppress their inner discontent and find other solutions.
Just when everyone was filled with worry, they heard hurried footsteps outside the door. Baixiao walked into the meeting room with someone.
Seeing the newcomer, Keqing's eyes lit up.
She quickly stood up and introduced the young man to the crowd.
"Fellow immortals, this is Mr. Su Mu, the hero who saved Mondstadt."
Upon hearing this, the deities all turned their heads to look, examining the young man before them, a hint of confusion in their eyes.
They couldn't sense anything special about Su Mu.
Only the silent Yaksha stared at him intently, his expression extremely grave.
Amidst the shocked gazes of everyone, the Yaksha, the first person under the Rex Lapis, actually stood up and bowed!
"Anemo Archon, I apologize for the lack of welcome, please forgive me."
With these words, the shocked crowd was completely stunned.
Who am I? Where am I? What happened? The legendary Anemo Archon is standing right before me?
"Xiao Xian, are you... are you not joking?"
Everyone looked at the handsome young man before them, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"Disrespectful!" Xiao turned to glare at the Qixing, then turned back, respectfully clasping his hands in a fist salute.
"They have eyes but cannot see. Please do not take offense."
As someone who had experienced the Archon War, Xiao was very sensitive to the perception of power.
Belonging to the same Anemo element, the aura emanating from Su Mu was so powerful that it made him feel suffocated.
This meant that Su Mu's true strength was probably no less than Rex Lapis. It was precisely because of this that Xiao acted so respectfully.
"Don't worry about it."
Su Mu casually waved his hand.
"I heard Lady Keqing has something for me, what is it?"
Hearing this, Keqing quickly stepped forward to help Su Mu settle into a seat, then cautiously said beside him, "Mr. Su Mu, thank you for accepting my invitation. Since you're willing to give me this opportunity, I won't hide it any longer."
Keqing informed Su Mu of the current situation in Liyue.
"You are the hero who saved Mondstadt, your strength is undeniable."
"Soon, Liyue may face an unprecedented disaster."
"I sincerely hope that Mr. Su Mu will lend a helping hand, to help Liyue overcome this crisis."
"You are Liyue's last hope. We are willing to pay any price, just for Liyue to continue."
Su Mu leaned back on the soft sofa, holding a cup of exquisite Qingxin Tea in his hand, without rushing to answer Keqing.
The atmosphere on the scene suddenly became tense. The Liyue Qixing instinctively held their breath, afraid that a deep breath would anger the young man before them.
Seeing this, the group chat exploded.
【Amber】：Mr. Su Mu is so impressive!
【Amber】：Just sitting there, nobody dares to speak!
【Kaeya】：Friendly reminder to everyone in the group, you can breathe.
【Yoimiya】：Ugh—! Oh my, Mr. Su Mu's aura is too strong, I even forgot to breathe!
【Collei】：If I were sitting there, I would have fainted from fright, I felt for the first time what a strong person's aura is like!
【Collei】：There's no sign of any Elemental Power fluctuations, but it's as if I'm being suppressed by an immense force. I can't even breathe, let alone speak!
【Hu Tao】：Oh my, is this the aura of the Anemo Archon?
【Hu Tao】：Even Xiao Xian has to bow. That's the treatment only the Rex Lapis enjoys!
【Xingqiu】：Don't forget, Mr. Su Mu also obtained the Rex Lapis' Geo Gnosis. Now, he's not just the Anemo Archon!
【Xiangling】：Two Gnoses, that's probably an unprecedented level of strength! Not to mention Mr. Su Mu can also utilize the terrifying Abyssal Power!
【Paimon】：Compared to him, we seem a little pathetic, huh?
【Paimon】：The Liyue Qixing and the deities are begging for help, what kind of divine treatment is this!
【Lumine】：Don't say anything anymore, Paimon. You're not a mute if you don't speak. Promise me, don't rub salt on the wound, okay?
