Liyue, among the clouds.

On the top of the Aozang Mountain, Liuyun Borrowing Wind stands here, overlooking the entire Jueyunjian Valley.

At this time, she was not alone. The fellow immortals Zhenjun Lishui Dieshan, Zhenyue Zhuyang Zhenjun and the Great Sage Conquering Demons were all beside her, but the expressions of these immortals were a bit solemn.

They all looked down, to be precise, to the southeast boundary.

The unusual movements in Tianqiu Valley have long been spread to the caves of all immortal families, and even Mandrill, who has been staying at Wangshu Inn all year round, is inevitably affected by it.

But today was the first time they got together because of this matter.

The vibrations on the ground are irregular. Sometimes the intervals last for several days, and sometimes the intervals are only a few minutes. Even Zhenjun Xieyuezhuyang, who is proficient in divination and divination, was unable to find any useful information.

At this time, there was some slight shaking on the edge of Mount Aozang, and some small stones fell to the bottom of the cliff.

"...This is the second time."

Feeling the strange movement around him, Mandrill crossed his arms and spoke slowly.

"Yes, this is the second small vibration in ten minutes..."

Hearing this, Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun gently shook his wings, and a gust of wind element swept up several stones, and then fell in front of them.

After doing all this, Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun shook his head, and then said: "This situation has never been encountered before. Even the changes in Tianqiu Valley are not so compact."

"More than that." Zhenyue Zhuyang Zhenjun looked at the small stones scattered in front of him, his eyes gradually darkened, "The even weirder thing is that when these vibrations occur... even the hexagrams I made earlier failed.

Already."

These divination tools are not ordinary magic tools. They were refined by himself and have been almost sublimated under years of careful maintenance. They are no weaker than the tools given by the emperor in the past.

However, even so, when these shocks occurred, the divination still failed.

This may only mean that the thing that caused these earthquakes has strength or qualifications superior to these magical weapons.

"Is there any official action from Liyue?"

After a moment of silence, Master Lishui Dieshan suddenly spoke.

"As far as I know, apart from sending some researchers to explore nearby, they have done nothing else."

Hearing this, Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun shook his head, as if he was a little confused about this.

"Because in addition to here, there have also been changes in the layered rock abyss, and the importance there is obviously greater than that of Jueyunjian."

It was at this time that Mandrill, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "No one has come here before. The bigger reason is that Qixing was distracted by that side."

"But... Ningzhe is back."

"Ningzhe is back?!"

Hearing this, the two cranes and the deer immediately turned their eyes to the mandrill, their eyes full of surprise.

Ningzhe has been staying in Daozhi for a long time, and not only him, but also Mr. Zhongli went there with him and has not come back yet.

According to the thinking of the immortals, the emperor went to Daozhe in person with Ningzhe, so they will definitely come back together - and now there is no news from the emperor, it can only mean that the emperor is still in Daozhe...

...

Did Ningzhe come back early?

"The Great Sage of Conquering Demons, how did you find out?"

Thinking of this, Zhenjun Lishui Dieshan looked at Mandrill with some confusion.

"...Actually, it was three days ago when he just returned to Liyue Port. I happened to be nearby and felt the aura." Seeing the expressions of his colleagues, Mandrill slowly said: "He came back alone.

, I took Inazuma’s boat, and I didn’t stay long.”

"Come back alone...?"

Upon hearing this, the three immortals were stunned for a moment, and then they looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

If they guessed correctly, the changes in the earth's veins this time were probably related to the Abyss Apostles caught last time, and those guys were said to have caused chaos of all sizes in Mondstadt and Inazuma.

Those guys' actions in Liyue were related to the earth's veins, and their actions were extremely rough and had reached a state that could be called destructive.

Coupled with the frequent earthquakes and unusual movements at this time...

As immortals who have experienced the war between demons and gods, they know very well how terrible secrets are buried in the land of Liyue, and many of them are even terrifying scenes that are revealed before their eyes.

Of all the possible disasters, not many are related to the earth's veins and strata, but in the final analysis they can point to a certain former colleague.

Now sealed underground, the King of Rock Dragons lives as long as the mountains.

They originally thought that this kind of incident could only be solved after the emperor came back, but if the emperor had no intention of coming back, and Ningzhe sneaked back quietly...then the emperor's attitude would be obvious.

"...I see."

After a few breaths, Lord Liuyun Jiefeng nodded gently, and the remaining two immortals also looked thoughtful.

"Yes, I think this is what the emperor meant."

Seeing that his colleagues all understood, Mandrill didn't say anything more and just focused his attention on the giant tree below.

Ever since the incident with Auxerre, the emperor has almost relieved all his burdens, and even set foot out of Liyue for the first time and went to the foreign land of Dao Wife.

You know, there was no communication between the seven gods many years ago, and the gatherings led by the God of Wind eventually stopped.

After that, there were only human exchanges between the various countries.

After Emperor Iwano stepped down from the throne, he chose Inazuma, who was still under seclusion, for his first trip out - although shortly after he went there, Ina's wife's seclusion order was cancelled.

In any case, this is not something that a [god] or [incarnation of a god] can do. The only ones who can do such a thing are ordinary humans.

This is the attitude of Emperor Yanwang, and also the attitude of Zhongli, the guest at the Hall of Rebirth.

Judging from the current situation, the emperor does not intend to intervene in this incident.

"Everyone, you might as well stay here and observe the giant tree."

After a moment of silence, seeing that several of his colleagues were thinking and had no intention of speaking, Mandrill slowly spoke.

"As it should be."

Master Lishui Dieshan nodded and agreed.

"What about you, the Great Sage of Conquering Demons?" Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng heard Mandrill's meaning, so she frowned and said, "If we all stay here, Ningzhe's side..."

"Well, leave it to me over there." Before Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun finished speaking, Mandrill spoke: "The terrain of the Strata Rock Abyss changes in many ways, and after the mutation, its changes are even more elusive... I am still

Learn something about it.”

"Okay, then just follow what the Great Sage of Conquering Demons said."

Hearing this, Zhen Yue Zhu Yang Zhenjun nodded slightly, and then the scattered divinations flew up on their own, and then were assembled together.

"..."

Only Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun glanced at Mandrill meaningfully, but she didn't say anything.
