Genshin Impact: Legend of the Emperor

After the banquet in Aru Village, Ying and Paimon stayed at Candice's house to rest for a night.

The next day, with the help of Candice and others, Ying successfully completed the commission given by the Adventurer's Association, and maintained her reputation in Catherine as someone who completed the commissioned tasks 100%.

After saying goodbye to their friends, Ying and Paimon took Nashida and Lu Ming back to Fontaine.

Fontaine looked peaceful now, as if there were vicious deep-sea monsters lurking under the calm water, waiting for them to go back and deal with them. On the other hand, Xumi had solved all the difficult problems, and with the Great Compassion Tree King in charge, they felt at ease.

It was just that Nashida felt a little regretful that she had never found an opportunity to talk to Lu Ming about letting him serve as the Great Sage.

Although he knew that Lu Ming would most likely refuse to become a great sage, after all, the position of great sage seemed to be above everyone else, but it was actually completely useless to Lu Ming and would only make him busier.

But Nashida's wisdom goes beyond this.

It is said that when you want to open a window, you'd better say you want to lift the roof first, so that in order to prevent you from lifting the roof, they will consider opening the window carefully.

Nashida originally planned to retreat in order to advance, using the position of the Great Sage as bait first. After Lu Ming took the bait and refused, she would then take the opportunity to propose the position of "the First Sage", which has no job but only honor and power. Lu Ming would surely not refuse.

In this way, as Nashida's first sage, Lu Ming and Xumi's relationship would be much closer.

Unfortunately, plans cannot keep up with changes. At the beginning, Lu Ming was free, but Nashida had no time because she had to deal with Xumi's work. After she finally squeezed out time, Lu Ming proposed a plan to save the Great Compassion Tree King. When the Great Compassion Tree King helped her deal with the work, they had to go to Fontaine again.

With Ying and Paimon beside her, Nashida was too embarrassed to say it out loud.

The key is that these two people are not easy to deal with and may disrupt her plans, so the wise Nashida decided to lie in wait for a while and wait for the opportunity.

After waving goodbye to the friends who came to see them off, the four of them returned to Melo Petersburg in a flash, using Ying's earth veins to teleport.

【Xumei chat group】

Ying: Dear friends, we have arrived in Mellow Petersburg.

Fluorescent: Photos of the interior of Mello Petersburg.jpg.

Cole: Hey! Are you coming back today? Where? Amber and I will go to meet you.

Paimon: Right here at the entrance to Mello Petersburg.

Kavi: The ability of the Traveler is so shocking!

Kavi: In a flash, thousands of miles away.

Kavi: If I had the ability, I could pay it off just by delivering goods...

El Haisen: Ignorant and superficial.

Kavi: Hey! Who are you scolding, El Haisen?

Elhaisen: Isn't it? With such a powerful ability, you thought of transporting goods?

Seno: Stop arguing. Do you two want to play cards? I am really good at Seven Summonings!

Dixia: We're here so quickly. I was greeting you one second, and we're already in Fontaine the next. It's incredible. Ying, you're worthy of being the traveler I'm optimistic about!

Ying: Hehe.

Dina Zedai: Come to think of it, although parting with friends is a regrettable thing, I surprisingly didn’t feel sad when I saw Ying and the others off this time.

Paimon: That's right. As long as Dinazedai misses us, Ying and I will rush back immediately after sending a message.

Nashida: Because the emergence of the elemental phone has brought us closer together.

Nashida: Just like now, even though I am far away in Fontaine, I can use the elemental phone to learn about everything that happened in Xumi.

Nashida: Although we are thousands of miles apart, we seem to be right next to each other. This is the power of wisdom and technology.

Because they did not tell anyone else when they came back, only Cole knew about their return in Melo Petersburg through the Sumeru chat group in the elemental phone.

Well, I’m afraid Amber also knows this time. There must be Eula next to Amber, so Eula also knows it.

I'm afraid that it won't be long before the news of their return spreads throughout Melopensky.

Even during the time when Lu Ming was away from Melo Petersburg, Lu Ming packed up all the important items in the laboratory and took them with him. The inspection in Melo Petersburg was still very strict, and everyone entering and leaving had to be strictly inspected by the defense forces.

Fortunately, Lu Ming had the highest authority in Melo Petersburg, which saved him a lot of trouble. He only needed to confirm his identity to be allowed to pass.

During the inspection, Lu Ming discovered that the young man who registered him had a pot of very vibrant sunflowers next to him. He looked at his number: 9527, and couldn't help but praise him: "You take good care of your plant partner, 9527."

After bidding farewell to the excited 9527, several people entered the interior of Mellow Petersburg.

At this time, Cole, Amber, Eula, and Keqing had been waiting here for a long time. Although no one knew how Keqing mixed with them, with Amber, a social phobic, around, Lu Ming would not be surprised even if Tianli was here.

A large group of beautiful women surrounded him, making it difficult for Lu Ming to resist. Fortunately, Xiao Paimeng was there and shared his experiences in Xumi in the past few days without any stage fright, allowing Lu Ming to take the opportunity to slip away.

Although she was very curious about what happened to Ying and others in Xumi, Keqing was not here to listen to stories.

Plant warriors are very important not only to Liyue, but also to the entire Teyvat. Moreover, the first experiment of these intelligent plant warriors in Melopeneburg was very successful.

These plant warriors, trained by the defense forces themselves, not only share the same mindset as their masters, but also possess good intelligence and combat capabilities, and until now, no shortcomings of these plant warriors have been seen.

As Liyue's ambassador to Fontaine, Keqing came here not only to welcome the return of Lu Ming and others, but also to handle her own tasks.

Ever since the water goddess Fininna displayed the plant warriors in front of many people in Teyvat, people from all countries have been looking forward to the free distribution of plant warriors. This expectation reached its peak after learning that the defense forces of Melopentsky had already obtained plant warriors.

Ningguang was worried that if the people were kept waiting any longer, there might be chaos, so she used the elemental phone to notify Keqing to urge Lu Ming's progress.

If Lu Ming, the plant warrior, fails at the critical moment, there will be a big mess in Teyvat.

Who would have thought that Lu Ming was still there just now, but in the blink of an eye, Keqing couldn't find Lu Ming.

Keqing immediately sent a private message to Lu Ming.

Keqing: @Lu Ming, where have you been? Why did I suddenly disappear from sight? If you see this message, please reply to me as soon as possible.

Keqing: If we waste too much time, we won’t be able to finish our work.

Keqing: Reply quickly.jpg

Keqing: Reply quickly.jpg

Lu Ming: Speechless.jpg

Lu Ming: Who did you learn text message bombing from?

Lu Ming: Ah Qing, you have become a bad person.

Keqing: You finally replied to me. Stop talking nonsense. I have something important to discuss with you. Where are you?

Lu Ming: Laboratory, is there anything that can’t be discussed on the Element phone?

Keqing: I can’t.

Keqing: Serious.jpg.
