"The real enemy..." After hearing this, Ying couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Paimeng on the side had a confused look on her face. She looked at the two people in front of her with thoughtful expressions, and an inexplicable fear surged in her heart.

"It seems that you have found the answer." Ningguang said to Ying with a smile, and then her eyes involuntarily turned to the sky outside the Qun Yu Pavilion.

"Wait, why do I feel more and more confused the more I listen!" Paimon finally couldn't help but ask.

Ningguang sighed softly and said slowly: "As the folks say, the Emperor's departure is indeed beneficial to the Seven Stars, but we must not be bound by the rumors of 'the Seven Stars usurping the throne'."

"It is for this reason that the image of the Seven Stars has gradually become 'corrupted' among the people."

"And behind these rumors, there is the shadow of the Fatui..." Ying added.

"To put it bluntly, they want to use rumors to stir up conflicts and create chaos." At this time, Qianyu suddenly interrupted.

"Of course, it's about the chaos in Liyue."

Hearing this, Paimeng suddenly realized.

“In fact, since that day, the Fatui have carried out too many covert activities that exceeded the bottom line of diplomacy.” Ningguang said solemnly.

"But if that's the case, why don't you stop them?" Fulin asked naively.

“No, although I have thought about doing so, but they are in the dark, and there are people like the Executor…” Ningguang couldn’t help but frowned as she spoke.

Hearing this, Ying immediately thought of the young master.

“As for the Immortal Sending Ceremony you organized, it was actually just a way for us to delay time in order to take charge of Liyue. We had no choice but to do so.” Ningguang gritted her teeth as she spoke.

She looked at a wooden board beside her that was covered with notes, on which were densely written various information and plans.

"It is difficult for us to imagine the ambitions of the Fatui, but I will never allow what happened in Mondstadt to happen again in Liyue..."

“So everyone, please believe in me and believe in the Seven Stars.” Ningguang said firmly, with determination and wisdom flashing in her eyes.

Looking at the contents on the note, Ying felt incredible, her brows slightly furrowed, and her eyes flashed with confusion and surprise.

"all these are……"

"It's the research of the Fatui, about the Talisman of No Taboos." Qianyu explained.

"Sounds so familiar. Wait, is this the one that the young master entrusted to us before?!" Paimon said.

"So they had planned this all along!" She felt a little angry and her eyes became sharp.

"So as early as the beginning, we have been his pawns." Qianyu said.

At this time, Ningguang explained: "The Hundred Taboos Talisman is actually not a token of the immortals and Liyue. In essence, it is a magical instrument of the immortals that contains tremendous energy."

"But even though I sent people to follow them for several days, I still couldn't figure out why they made this kind of artifact that couldn't be used on themselves."

"It must be something bad anyway," Paimon agreed.

At this moment, Ningguang suddenly turned her head and looked at the four people, her eyes falling on Ying.

“If Liyue really encounters a disaster, please lend us a helping hand…” she said seriously.

"Don't worry Ningguang, we will do it." Ying answered firmly, and the other party couldn't help but show a hint of joy on his face when he heard it.

At this moment, a servant suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

"I'm sorry, everyone. I don't mean to disturb you, but there is a difficult matter that needs to be reviewed by Lady Ningguang." She said anxiously, and even her voice trembled a little.

“Then I’ll excuse myself first, everyone.” Ningguang said with a hint of apology in her tone.

"If you are interested, you can take a look around in this [Qun Yu Pavilion]." After saying that, Ningguang followed the attendant and left. The four people were left standing there, watching their backs as they left.

"So what should we do now?" Fulin looked at the others in confusion.

Hearing this, Ying pointed to the piece of paper on the table that contained information about the Fatui.

"Why don't we go there first? The place circled in red seems to be a stronghold." She speculated.

"At least we need to know what the other party is going to do."

"Then let's set off as soon as possible, as we will have to meet up with Zhongli and the others later." Paimeng reminded everyone hurriedly.

Everyone nodded in agreement and prepared to return to the ground as planned. However, at this moment, Qianyu suddenly stepped forward and closed the door tightly.

"Don't bother, leave it to me." He said with a smile.

As soon as the words fell, strands of green light surrounded Qianyu's hands, and then the light flashed, instantly enveloping the four people. In the blink of an eye, their figures disappeared above the Qun Yu Pavilion.

As the feeling of weightlessness and dizziness came over her, Ying felt her stomach churning and she couldn't help but close her eyes tightly, trying to suppress the discomfort.

"Are you feeling okay, Ying, Paimon?" Qianyu asked with concern.

When the discomfort disappeared, the two suppressed their nausea and waved their hands with difficulty to show that they were fine.

"By the way, Qianyu, how did you do it?" Paimon looked at the different place in front of him curiously and asked puzzledly.

"Well..." Qianyu smiled mysteriously, and then explained: "Secret. You can think of it as a special way of transmission."

"Teleport?" Paimon blinked, seeming to find the word very novel.

At this moment, the scene that appeared before the four people was exactly the base where the Fatui studied the Talisman of No Taboos as shown on the paper.

On the other side, inside the attic of the Qun Yu Pavilion, the atmosphere seemed somewhat solemn.

Ye Lan and Ning Guang sat opposite each other, their eyes met, revealing deep worry.

"Now the immortals in Jueyunjian can't hold it in any longer, and this long-suppressed conflict is about to erupt..." Ye Lan said solemnly.

Ningguang frowned slightly upon hearing this, and responded with a serious expression: "Let the Thousand Rocks Army try to stop them as much as possible. We must not let them reach Liyue Harbor now. We must buy time."

Ye Lan nodded in agreement. She continued, "The current situation is indeed complicated, but we can only take it one step at a time. After all, the other mysterious executive has not revealed his true colors yet..."

After that, the two fell into a brief silence.
