If Ruota and Shen Qianluo want to rebel, they should get together at a table and carefully study the strategy of rebellion.

"In fact, there is no need to pay too much attention to strategy. With my combat power, when we meet Morax, we just need to join forces to kill him—"

"I can't beat him either."

"this…"

"You are severely worn out, and your condition is not stable enough. I think your strength has declined a lot. I am a weak demon god, and my bamboo flute ran away from home, so I had to use the wooden flute instead. I am weak and can't even tie a chicken, so your combat power can be ignored."

Shen Qianluo made a thoughtful analysis, "Morax has been entrenched in Liyue for many years, and has the help of humans and immortals. If he doesn't plot some rebellion, his combat power will be overwhelming."

"Damn it! I, the Dragon King Ruotu, was created by the crystallization of elements. I carry the power and memories of the earth and live as long as the mountains and seas. Since when did I need to be afraid of the god of ants?"

Ruota looked angry and could not help but slam the table, but was stopped by Shen Qianluo with a faint smile, thus avoiding the surprised looks from the people around him.

"Okay, be good. A temporary victory or defeat cannot deny your nobility. It's just that he was luckier and won by chance." The young man blinked, feeling no psychological burden in tricking the Emperor.

"That damned Long Long has caused you and me so much trouble. It is not right to simply kill him. Ruo Ta, do you still remember the things he has done to you and me? After arresting him, why don't we return them one by one?"

"Uh…"

"Why? Are you still reluctant?"

"No, I forgot..." The dumbfounded Ruo Tuo seemed to stop being angry all of a sudden. He scratched his head in confusion, and fell into deep thought with a chaotic mind, "I'm ashamed of you... Is there such a thing?"

Shen Qianluo still had a smile on his lips, tilting his head to look at him obediently. He looked very obedient and patient, and seeing that Ruo Tuo still couldn't say anything indignant, his smile even deepened, and he continued to bewitch him with soft words.

"How about it, do you still want it?"

"I remember now. It was humans who attacked the ley lines on which I depend for survival!"

“So you attacked the Stonehenge, but Morax stopped you from destroying the Liyue you had protected.”

"It was Morax who sealed me in the dark underground, never to see the light of day again!"

"He is also applying his own strength to you in an attempt to prevent further wear and tear."

“Yes! …Yes…”

"It was he who opened your eyes and brought you out of the underground. At that time, you would mention the opening of your eyes every time you saw me, as if I was not there that day."

Finally, he stood up with a smile, walked to Ruo Tuo, looked up with a gentle spring breeze, and said, "Do you still remember the words you said in person, the sky moved everything, the mountains and the sea changed into shape——"

"...Stars appear in the wasteland, shining like...the blazing sun...?"

Ruota's completely dizzy Nao Kuo was finally hit.

Ruota, with a bump on his head, was completely awake.

"I remember these things now. Sorry, the wear and tear is a bit severe, and I tend to forget things..."

"It's good to remember now. I thought we hadn't seen each other for years. I really wanted to plan a rebellion with you and get beaten by Longlong." Shen Qianluo still smiled lightly and didn't care at all. "Oh, of course, I'm not unhappy because you regard your Morax as important as my Ali."

Ruo Tuo looked at him seriously, and seemed to be about to say something, but stopped and changed the subject: "I didn't expect that you survived."

"Luckily he didn't die." The young man shook his head slightly, pretending not to notice the strangeness in the other's eyes. "Do you want to go see him? He must have missed you a lot after not seeing you for many years."

"I woke up after hearing the sound of a flute. You played it a few days ago, right? It was to wake me up from my deep sleep." After a moment of silence, the ancient rock dragon king lowered his voice slightly, his expression focused and solemn, "Before I meet him, can you tell me... Qianluo, who are you?"

"..." After crossing time and facing such a question again, Shen Qianluo did not show any surprise, nor did he respond directly. He just walked slowly along the coast with him, "Who I am, is it important?"

"Haha, of course this is important." Ruota laughed first, and the serious atmosphere for a moment disappeared.

"You and I are comrades who walk side by side, and we are watchers who gaze upon this country together. These are things that will not change with the passage of time. Our identities, status, and the friendship and care for each other are all the same."

"Then you really are a loyal dragon." The young man laughed very softly, his voice was gentle and light, but real and cheerful, "They say things change and people change. I change day by day, but the dragon has not changed."

Ruo Tuo disagreed, "I don't think you've changed much. You're still by his side, protecting the country you love. But Liyue Harbor has really changed a lot."

He relaxed as he spoke, breathing in the fresh air, "It's been years since I last saw the sun. Even the Liyue Harbor I walked through so many times has been expanded to include streets and alleys that I can no longer recognize."

"I'm new to this world, and it's indeed familiar yet strange." Shen Qianluo nodded with this feeling, and turned his eyes to the side, "This is the result of his many years of hard work, do you like it?"

"I fell in love with humans because of you two. What kind of power is hidden in such a tiny body to be able to unleash such creativity and build prosperous cities?"

With a thoughtful look in his eyes, the Dragon King sighed silently, "I still don't understand this question until now. I was born a powerful rock dragon and have never experienced the insignificance of the world. Qianluo, if you like to get along with people, you should understand more than me."

“No, I don’t understand either.”

Meeting Ruota's somewhat unexpected gaze, the clear blue of the sea was reflected in Shen Qianluo's eyes.

"A-Li asked me this question many, many years ago. At that time, he didn't quite understand it, and I didn't understand it at all, so I lied to him and asked him if he dared to make a promise with me—"

"When we get the answer to this question one day in the future, let's communicate again.

Whose answer is closer to this tiny race that is closest to God?"

He said, chuckling, "And now, I don't dare to ask him anymore."

"Why?" Ruota and he stopped at the beach and couldn't help but look over.

"As you can see, even though I am a god, I still don't understand humans. But he has learned a lot in the thousands and hundreds of years he has been walking alone."

The wind blowing in from the sea lifted the boy's hair and clothes, like a lazy comfort, accompanied by the sunlight that sprinkled like golden sand, embellishing his melodious white clothes.

"He is the god of lovers, without question or doubt. He has never abandoned his duty, nor has he left his watch. He is not a deserter, and has never left."

"Of course, I am not like some poor loser who can only hide in the dark and silently watch over the people I cherish."

He is a very good god, and unlike him—

"So, falling in love with someone like this is not a shameful thing at all."

Ruota, who was originally moved by what he heard: …?
