Chapter 354: Let Su Li Host the Emperor's Death Anniversary

Facing Keqing’s questions.

Ningguang smiled and said, “The Emperor once appeared in my dream and told me that he was not really dead, and that he had entrusted the future of Liyue to us humans…”

Hear the news.

Keqing was surprised at first, as she didn't expect that the Emperor was actually still alive.

Then he felt a little depressed. Such a big thing, but the Emperor actually told Ningguang in a dream, but didn't tell Keqing.

See this.

Ningguang smiled and said, "Of course it's not just me. The Emperor also sent dreams to the other seven stars."

Hear this.

Keqing couldn't help but ask, "Why don't I know? Did the Emperor only send his message to you guys in his dreams?"

Ningguang thought for a moment and said, “I remember now. If I remember correctly, you were working overtime that day to organize the information for the expansion of Liyue Harbor…”

Because three years have passed, even Ningguang can't remember it clearly.

but.

After hearing what Ningguang said, Keqing suddenly remembered.

It was true. At that time, we were planning to expand Liyue. We were busy until midnight every day and even stayed in Yujingtai at night.

Think of this.

Keqing took a deep breath and said, "Since you already knew it, why didn't you tell me?"

Ningguang sighed, "Because the Emperor said not to tell anyone that he is still alive."

Keqing frowned slightly: "Then what should you do now..."

Ningguang said helplessly: "The situation is different now. For the sake of this cooperation, I have to speak out."

but.

Ningguang did not say that the Emperor faked his death, but said that there is a second god in Liyue.

talking.

Ningguang sighed again: "If I tell you the truth now, maybe the Emperor will blame me in my dreams tonight..."

Keqing was speechless: "..."

Lord Emperor has a broad mind and certainly won't blame others for such a small matter.

And Ningguang had to say it for Liyue's sake.

A moment of silence.

Keqing took a deep breath and said, "Since the Emperor is still alive, do you know where he is now?"

If we can find the Emperor.

Then it will be easier to suppress Hole Zero.

Ningguang said slowly: "Lord Emperor, like all the immortals, has transformed into a mortal and integrated into the lives of the people of Liyue..."

Hear the words.

Keqing asked again: "Do you know who the emperor's incarnation is?"

Ningguang shook her head: "Of course I don't know. I can't even tell the incarnations of the immortals apart, let alone the incarnation of the Emperor."

but.

Over the past few years, Ningguang has also gained some clues and has identified several people living in Liyue.

For example, a businessman who is extremely lucky has made a lot of money in recent years...

For example, the owner of a certain inn is kind to others...

For example, a guest official in the Wangsheng Hall has an extraordinary temperament and is well-versed in ancient and modern times...

But these are all speculations.

Ningguang was unable to determine which incarnation the Emperor was, so she did not tell Keqing about her speculations.

aside.

Keqing sighed: "Lord Emperor... why do you do this?"

Ningguang smiled and said, "Lord Emperor must have a deep meaning behind this."

Keqing: "..."

After learning that the Emperor was still alive, Keqing felt as if a burden had been lifted off her shoulders and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Ever since the death of the Emperor.

Without the protection of the gods, if Liyue wants to maintain its current status in the continent of Teyvat, it must rely on Keqing and the other seven stars of Liyue for support.

Keqing lived up to everyone's expectations and, together with Ningguang and the other seven stars, shouldered the burden of Liyue.

Standing on the Qun Yu Pavilion and looking into the distance.

for a long time.

Keqing said slowly: "Will the Emperor know about this cooperation?"

Ningguang smiled and said, "Lord Emperor has only retired from the position of Rock God, but he has not lost his power. He must be protecting Liyue from behind. He will be the first to know anything that happens in Liyue."

Yes.

Even if the Emperor abdicates the throne of the God of Rock, he will definitely protect Liyue from behind.

Learn this.

Although Keqing was very happy, she still remained calm in front of Ningguang.

After a while.

She said goodbye to Ningguang and left the Jade Pavilion alone.

Just teleported down from the Qun Yu Pavilion.

Keqing couldn't help laughing.

aside.

The staff member in charge of the transmission also smiled and said, "Lady Keqing, did you enjoy chatting with Lady Ningguang?"

Keqing quickly suppressed her smile, coughed lightly and said, "Hmm..."

After a perfunctory response.

Keqing left in a hurry.

Walking on the street, Keqing was still thinking about the fact that the Emperor was still alive. She didn't expect that the Emperor was faking his death, and even Keqing was deceived...

So regretful——

If I hadn’t wasted time working overtime, I would have definitely received a message from the Emperor in my dream.

I regret so much...I missed such an important thing.

Think of this.

Keqing felt regretful, happy, and sighed...

She didn't even notice when the Traveler and Paimon approached her.

aside.

Seeing Keqing walking alone on the street, Paimon sighed and felt happy. He asked in confusion, "Keqing, we meet again."

Keqing seemed not to hear.

See this.

Paimon and the Traveler looked at each other and felt that Keqing was a little strange now.

Paimon flew closer again and called out, "Keqing, we meet again."

This time I finally heard it.

Keqing reacted and was shocked: "Ah? Paimon? It's you... Traveler, Paimon, when did you come?"

The traveler said helplessly: "I came a long time ago."

Paimon spread his hands helplessly: "We saw you from a distance and came over to greet you, but you didn't respond... What were you thinking about just now? So absorbed in thought?"

Keqing said subconsciously: "I'm thinking about the Emperor..."

After realizing what was happening, Keqing quickly stopped.

I almost let it slip.

Paimon was puzzled: "What do you want to know about the Emperor?"

Keqing quickly changed the subject and said, "I suddenly remembered that the anniversary of the death of the Emperor will be in a few days... I want to commemorate the Emperor first, and then lead the immortals to New Elidu..."

Although I already know that the Emperor is still alive.

But nominally, the Lord Emperor is already dead, and the anniversary activities must not be cancelled.

Hear this.

Paimon also breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought Keqing already knew that Zhongli or Suli was the Geo King.

aside.

The traveler nodded solemnly and said, "Well, if you calculate the time, it is indeed almost the anniversary of the death of the old emperor. When the time comes, invite the immortals and the people of New Elidu to participate. As for other matters, leave it to the Wangsheng Hall. Just like before, let Su Li host the anniversary activities. He is a professional."

Hear this.

Keqing nodded seriously: "Well, let's do as you say."

Paimeng was very helpless and sighed deeply: "..."

Keqing was puzzled: "What's wrong, Paimon?"

Paimon sighed and said, "I was thinking that if we held a grand death anniversary event for the Emperor, the Emperor would be very happy."
