During the following period of time, Shi Yi studied mechanical arts with Zhenjun. However, even though Shi Yi did not show up, he still felt a lot of faith power continuously entering his body. These faith powers were mainly divided into three streams.

One was from Mondstadt, and the other was from Liyue. No, I haven't done good deeds or become famous in Liyue yet.

In his opinion, an automatic billboard advertising a funeral parlor would not be popular with others. After all, most people would think it unlucky to see people advertising funerals around them every day.

So he decided to study for a while and then go back to Liyue Harbor to see what was going on.

A few days after Shiyi returned to Aozang Mountain, Shiyi completed the assignment for Zhenjun. When he was about to go find Zhenjun, he just arrived at the entrance of the cave and found that there seemed to be a guest.

If there are guests, it seems that I need to avoid them. Shi Yi thought about it and wanted to leave. But the next moment, a familiar voice came from the cave.

This sound... is Sora?

Shi Yi was a little excited and thrilled to meet an acquaintance, but out of courtesy, he waited outside.

However, listening to the intermittent conversation coming from inside, Shiyi suddenly felt a little confused.

"…The Emperor was assassinated…"

"How unreasonable..."

"Seven stars..."

What’s going on? I can’t understand what they are saying.

Shiyi was so curious that she wanted to go in and ask directly.

Just when Shi Yi was about to get closer, suddenly Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun flew out. Seeing Shi Yi's sneaky behavior, he was stunned: "Xiao Shi, what are you doing?"

Shiyi stood at attention immediately: "Master, I have finished my homework. I was going to come and check it for you, but I just noticed that there seemed to be guests, so I waited here."

The True Lord seemed to have something urgent to do, so he said, "I'll check the homework when you get back. I have something to do and need to go to Liyue Harbor."

"Oh, Master, what happened?" Shi Yi saw that Master Liuyun Jiefeng was about to leave again, and hurriedly wanted to ask.

Zhenjun looked at Shiyi, the little Karami, and frowned slightly: "Don't worry about this matter, just stay in the cave and study hard."

"Ah? But..." Shi Yi realized that something big had happened and wanted to say something, but Zhenjun flew away directly.

Shiyi was very distressed, and just as she turned around, she saw Sora and Paimon coming out.

"Shiyi! It's you! Long time no see!" Paimon shouted excitedly.

Sora: "Long time no see, how are you doing recently?"

Shi nodded: "Hello, I'm doing fine recently, how about you?"

"It's still the same as always, looking for commissions to do every day." Kong said.

Paimeng asked, "By the way, Shiyi, we seemed to hear Master, Xiaoshi or something just now. Did your master forget about Master Liuyunjiefeng?"

"Yes. Actually, I don't know why, everyone likes to call me Xiaoshi, but it's just a name, it doesn't matter. If you like, you can call me that." Shiyi said.

"Okay, Xiaoshi, this sounds more intimate." Paimon nodded.

"By the way, what did you just talk about? My master left in a hurry." Shi Yi asked.

Kong and Paimeng looked at each other, and then told each other about the Immortal Summoning Ceremony and the assassination of the Emperor.

"What! The emperor was assassinated!!!" Shi Yi exclaimed, his face full of disbelief.

His first reaction to this explosive news was to go to Liyue Harbor to watch, but the next moment he paused and his face looked a little strange. Fortunately, he was a bird now, so others could not see his expression clearly.

That's not right. The Emperor is extremely powerful. If he could be assassinated so easily by someone else, no one in the entire Liyue would be able to stop that guy.

However, thinking about how little he knew about this world, and that there were many terrifying killing moves in the world of immortal cultivation that could only be used to defeat the strong with the weak at a huge cost, Shi Yi still chose to keep his doubts.

So Shiyi said, "This matter is of great importance. I need to go to Liyue Harbor immediately."

Shi Yi was thinking that her master didn't know that the Emperor had a mortal identity named Zhongli in the mortal world. In this case, she should go to the Hall of Rebirth to confirm it.

After saying that, Shiyi also flew away. Seeing this hurried look, Kong and Paimon looked at each other with helplessness in their eyes. It should be said that they are really worthy of being master and disciple, and their anxious looks are exactly the same.

……

The Hall of Rebirth. When Shi Yi arrived here, perhaps because the assassination of the Emperor today was too shocking, the entire Liyue Harbor fell silent and everyone returned home and did not dare to go out.

The same is true, Hu Tao and Zhongli are both in the Hall of Rebirth.

Seeing Zhongli, Shiyi breathed a sigh of relief, then turned into a little loli and walked over.

"Hu Tao, a guest official from Zhongli!" Shi Yi greeted.

"It's Xiaoshi! You're here!" Hu Tao's eyes lit up when she saw this, and she ran over and said, "Did you know? The emperor was assassinated!"

"I know. I guess the immortals should all know. They are now on their way to Liyue Harbor to bring punishment to justice." Shi Yi said.

"Alas, it looks like Liyue Harbor will be in turmoil for some time to come." Hu Tao said with some discouragement. If this continues, the business of Wangsheng Hall will not be very good either.

Seeing Hu Tao's concerns, Shi Yi glanced at Zhongli next to her, but ultimately said nothing.

Zhong Kai said, "Master, Xiaoshi, Xiaoshi and I will go meet someone later."

"Huh? Who is it?" Hu Tao was a little suspicious.

"If the emperor is assassinated, our Wangsheng Hall will naturally hold a ceremony to send him off. I am going there to discuss this matter in detail with a friend, who can find a lot of special materials for the ceremony." Zhongli said.

Shi was stunned for a moment, then realized that this was an opportunity to create some alone time to explain.

So Shi nodded: "Yes, I also have some understanding of many of the mechanisms required for the ceremony, I will go with you."

"Is that so? Well, things have been a bit unsettled lately, so you should be more careful too." Hu Tao advised.

Hearing this, the two nodded and then set off.

After walking away, Shi Yi couldn't help but ask, "Emperor...Zhongli Keqing, what's going on? Why are there rumors that you were assassinated?"

"This is not a rumor, but something I planned." Zhongli said.

"?" Shiyi didn't quite understand. Seeing the puzzled look on her face, Zhongli explained, "I have governed Liyue for a thousand years. I have met too many people and seen too many things. As time goes by, for my own reasons, I often wonder if I should give up my position as the God of Rock."

"Relinquish the position of Rock God!???" This thought surprised Shiyi.

"That's right, but I'm more worried about whether Liyue has the ability to deal with the crisis on its own."

Hearing this, Shiyi understood: "So all this is your test for Liyue?"
