Ke Qing had already participated in two missions before, making her the most involved member besides Mu Yang.
But at this moment, no one would accuse Ke Qing of being selfish.
After all, Ganyu had a casual attitude towards such missions, completely immersed in official matters and lacking the time to participate. If a task required her involvement, Ganyu would join, but for now, she would deal with the Liyue Bank situation first.
Liyue had existed for thousands of years, and even Ganyu didn't know how much wealth it had accumulated. If everyone deposited Mora into their bank, how would they provide loans and earn interest?
Deposit interest and loan interest, these all required analysis and calculations.
And these were Ganyu's responsibility. No one in Liyue, even Morax, could match her understanding of these data.
As for Xiao, if he was needed for combat, he wouldn't hesitate to assist. But since Mu Yang and the others didn't request his help, Xiao dedicated his energy to practicing his meditation technique. His body was heavily worn, and he realized that by practicing meditation, his spirit would gradually strengthen, allowing him to resist the intrusions of the lingering resentment of the previous Archon.
Therefore, Ke Qing's participation in this mission seemed natural.

“Hmm? An ominous aura.” Mu Yang, along with the other two, arrived in Golden Time, his face filled with disgust as he sensed the surrounding atmosphere. “Is this the essence of the Demon?”
Thankfully, although the aura was repulsive, Mu Yang believed he could handle it.
After all, he was no ordinary individual now.
“Hey hey hey, Mu Yang, look, this is the battle force index, right?” Suddenly, Hu Tao slapped Mu Yang's shoulder, urging him to look at her. Then, she unleashed a crimson aura, and a card appeared beside her.
1231…5912…8989…9882…11920…
Hu Tao's battle force index instantly surpassed 10,000 points and continued to rise rapidly.
Mu Yang didn't find this strange at all. Wang Da Dong and the others could reach over 9,000 battle force points without much training.
In Silver Time, the Five Tigers Generals' combat force easily surpassed 10,000, and some like Guan Yu, a top-tier master, even broke through 20,000 points.
Hu Tao had been nurtured by Zhongli since childhood. Having a battle force index far exceeding 10,000 was understandable.
“Without using the secret techniques of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, what's the highest battle force index you can achieve?” Mu Yang looked at Hu Tao with curiosity.
As for his own battle force index, Mu Yang hadn't bothered to test it. He was incredibly powerful now!
“Let me try!” Hu Tao further pushed her initially stable battle force index, ultimately reaching around 22,000 points.
“22,000 battle force index? It's definitely not enough to be the Black Dragon's opponent.” Mu Yang stroked his chin, observing Hu Tao casually.
Hu Tao waved her hand dismissively. “This is just my usual combat strength. If I use the funeral parlor's secret techniques, reaching over 30,000 points is a piece of cake.
Oh, right, weapons also increase battle force index.”
Hu Tao took out her staff, Huomo, and her battle force index surged again, immediately surpassing 30,000 points.
“See, the weapon boost is pretty significant.” Hu Tao boasted. “If I use my secret techniques, I should be at least on par with that Black Dragon.”
“Seems reasonable.” Mu Yang then turned his attention to Ke Qing. “In this world, we can gauge your strength.
While battle force index doesn't truly reflect strength, it can generally show your physical and energy levels.”
“Hmm!” Ke Qing unleashed a purple-red battle force index, mirroring Hu Tao, instantly surpassing 10,000 points, then 20,000, finally stabilizing around 25,000.
“Wow, Ke Qing, your strength has become this powerful?” Hu Tao and Ke Qing were still good friends.
They had clashed before, and Hu Tao believed their strengths were roughly equal without using secret techniques. But she didn't expect that Ke Qing's normal battle force index had surpassed her.
“I purchased a Fire God's Eye earlier. You didn't buy one?” Ke Qing looked at Hu Tao with a hint of suspicion, then she pulled out her Primordial Jade Cutter. Ke Qing's battle force index surged again, reaching over 30,000, even surpassing Hu Tao.
“Fire God's Eye? I didn't buy any other God's Eye, because there's still no Water God's Eye.” Hu Tao's gaze toward Mu Yang was tinged with dissatisfaction. With so many God's Eyes available, why was there no Water God's Eye? She felt targeted.
“It will be available soon, don't rush things.” Seeing Hu Tao's slightly 不满 attitude, Mu Yang quickly assured her. “I'll put the Water God's Eye on sale when we get back.
Alright, let's get to the task. You've revealed your battle force index, and the Black Dragon's side won't ignore you.”
“Okay!” Hearing this, Hu Tao didn't make any more trouble. According to the mission requirements, the good side needed to win. Based on the usual nature of guild tasks, the two sides must be engaged in a fight by now.
“Whoosh!” Just as Mu Yang and his companions were about to head towards the source of the demonic aura, four figures appeared in the distance.
Mu Yang scanned them with his eyes and casually asked, “East City Guard, what are you doing here?”
“We sensed your battle force index! We're here to investigate, because the battle between good and evil is about to begin.” Xiu looked at the three with a solemn expression. “If I'm not mistaken, you're not from Golden Time either. The battle between good and evil isn't for you to participate in.”
It wasn't that Xiu was being arrogant, but if he could participate, he would have already done so.
