【琴: So it’s over? It’s a perfect ending!】
【Kaeya: What about the rest of the story? Why won't you show it?】
【Yae Miko: The rest is paid content, you see~】
【Arataki Itto: Does this count as abuse of power?】
【Keqing: Obviously not~ It’s all passive on his part!】
【Amber: Is…is his body okay?】
【Eula: You guys are missing the point, aren’t you?】
【Hu Tao: Exactly! Mo Li is coming to Liyue!】
【Liyue Citizens: Who cares? Mondstadt friends, watch and learn! This is what real power is!】
【Tartaglia: Though I don’t like Rosaria, that woman! But we’ve been colleagues, so I’ll try my best to find her a suitable stage!】
【Paimon: Hey, hey, hey! We’re watching a comparison, aren’t we? Don’t go off topic!】
Paimon's words served as a reminder to everyone!
Right! You wouldn't have said it, but we all forgot about the yellow-haired one!
The yellow-haired one could only manage a wry smile at this point!
He was completely down and out!
When everyone is mocking you, that’s not the worst result!
The worst outcome is when no one even talks about you!
In this moment, Aether suddenly realized!
Though his travels seemed to have brought him countless friends!
When push came to shove, there was no one to speak up for him.
Recalling the past, those people were only a bit stronger than casual acquaintances.
Then he looked at Mo Li… Nevermind! He wouldn’t look!
Aether didn’t say anything, and neither did anyone else.
It’s better not to say anything embarrassing to him.
But everyone let the yellow-haired one off, the heavens wouldn’t let him off!
【Act 2: Liyue Journey~ (Aether)】
The yellow-haired one instantly wore a mask of agony!
Can you please stop this public execution!
【Keqing: Let me explain to the Traveler first~ The Traveler has indeed made many outstanding contributions to Liyue! This is undeniable!】
【Zhongli: That’s right~ The Traveler did a good job!】
【Shenhe: They played a crucial role!】
【Scaramouche: Really? So, that means he won't faint this time?】
【Aether: …】
Almost everyone was interested in Liyue!
Even among the Seven Nations, it was considered an incredibly powerful presence!
Not to mention, Liyue was also home to the Geo Archon, Morax!
But the beginning of the story defied everyone's expectations!
“The Archon was murdered, lock down the entire area!”
【Arataki Itto: Huh? I wanted to see the Geo Archon’s magnificence! But we’re summoning the god just to see his corpse?】
【Collei: So…so scary~】
【Amber: It’s so intense right from the start?】
Everyone was shocked! But then the appearance of Childe captured everyone's attention!
Unlike La Signora, Childe, though a Fatui Harbinger, appeared extremely friendly.
But…
【Voice from the Void: Yellow-hair! What are you running for? Would they be able to chase you if you weren’t running? You didn’t kill him, why are you so nervous?】
The mysterious voice appeared again! It made everyone who was discussing stop and stare!
【Yoimiya: Right! Why run?】
【Mo Li: It looks like he’s trying to steal something!】
【Alhaitham: I can only say that he hasn’t read enough books!】
【Paimon: …】
“Right! Traveler! If you hadn't run away back then, wouldn’t anyone have chased you?”
Paimon issued a soul-searching question within the Fairytale Kingdom!
The yellow-haired one's eyes instantly became clear, and then he fell into deep thought!
Right! Why did I run away back then?
He didn’t know, but he felt subconsciously nervous!
He always felt that something was missing if he wasn’t being hunted! It wouldn’t feel like a real journey without it! What’s the difference between that and skipping life?
Therefore, the deduction: Not running = Skipping life!
The yellow-haired one’s performance can only be described as mediocre!
He obtained the “Book of Many Things” and even showed everyone the Liyue ecosystem!
Adepti, Yakshas, Qixing… Liyue’s species diversity was much richer than Mondstadt’s!
The situation was also much more complicated than Mondstadt’s!
It’s just that these Adepti seem to be at odds with the Qixing…
【Nahida: I’ve long heard of Liyue’s Adepti~ Today, I finally get to see them in person!】
【Yae Miko: It’s just that they don’t seem to be getting along too well, right? Their ideologies are quite different!】
【Keqing: Of course! Times have changed! Liyue has entered the era of human rule!】
【Alhaitham: Human rule? Are you serious? In this world?】
【Ningguang: Yes~ Human rule! Is there a problem?】
【Alhaitham: Nothing. If it were truly human rule, Sumeru wouldn’t have so many problems!】
Almost everyone found it incredibly absurd at this moment!
Human rule? What are you kidding?
Human rule in a world where the Seven Archons exist?
If it were really human rule, Liyue might be wiped out by an Archon tomorrow!
As everyone continued watching, they gradually understood Liyue’s situation!
The Qixing and the Adepti’s ideologies clashed!
And so, the Qixing proved that they could govern Liyue well through human rule!
【Voice from the Void: So, what role did the yellow-hair play in all of this?】
The Traveler didn’t walk all this way for nothing!
Even if he didn’t have anyone he could confide in, no one would embarrass him!
But that voice from the void was another matter entirely!
Everyone began to think!
The Traveler…
It’s like he was constantly running errands!
He was ordered about by Tartaglia, the Qixing, and the Adepti.
He seemed very busy, but he wasn’t involved in anything core, he was just a link connecting everyone!
【Mondstadt Citizens: Cut it out! You’re just as bad! Don’t you Liyue people also make the Traveler run errands? Liyue…nothing special!】
【Liyue Citizens: How can you say that? The Traveler’s things! How can they be called errands? It’s called witnessing! Do you guys ever think about the meaning of travel?】
【Aether: I beg you, enough!】
Now, the blame was all on Liyue!
Aren’t you Liyue people just bullying the honest guy?
Thankfully, what happened next distracted everyone’s attention from the yellow-haired one.
【Hu Tao: What?!!! Guest Lecturer, you…】
【Venti: Wow! This Mr. Zhongli is actually the Geo Archon!!】
【Liyue Citizens: Huh?】
【Yae Miko: Oh my~ How unexpected!】
【Xiangling: This…this…this!】
In an instant, the entire sky screen exploded!
The revelation of Zhongli’s identity as the Geo Archon had a much greater impact than Venti’s!
The Liyue people all shut their mouths!
Didn’t they…make fun of their own Geo Archon earlier?
Meanwhile, at the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor…
“Guest Lecturer, you…”
Hu Tao was completely dumbfounded!
She felt subconsciously afraid!
Of course, she wasn’t scared, but there were other emotions!
“Director… Don’t mind those things. I’m Zhongli now. The guest lecturer of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor.”
Zhongli took a sip of tea calmly. He had prepared for this day!
Hu Tao was still having a hard time accepting it!
What is this?
The youthful Director of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor shouldn’t dream of the Geo Archon, Morax!
