Chapter 142: The Transaction between Seno and Dolly
In the Jade Pavilion, Ningguang was looking at the intelligence that had just been delivered. Just last night, another intelligence officer brought her news that the Fatui might attack the Golden House. This morning, several more intelligence reports came in, and all of them recorded news about the Fatui wandering around the Golden House.

"It seems that the Fatui's executive officer is very interested in the things in the Golden House. He actually recruited so many Fatui to gather intelligence near the Golden House."

Ningguang narrowed her eyes. She didn't know why the young master did this, but this was also a good opportunity to test whether the Rock King Emperor was really dead. Yes, Ningguang didn't believe from beginning to end that the Rock King Emperor was really dead. She felt that this might be a false illusion deliberately arranged by the Rock King Emperor.

What Ningguang didn't expect was that just when she needed someone to test the waters, the young master would come to her door on his own. In this case, it would be a waste of this opportunity if she didn't make a good plan.

As for the preparations for this test, Ningguang had already begun to make arrangements. If the Emperor really passed away, and the Young Master walked out of the Golden House safely, he would be greeted by the encirclement of the Thousand Rocks Army and Ye Lan. If the Emperor has not passed away yet, he would be greeted by the wrath of the Rock King Emperor. Both situations would mean a dead end for the Young Master.

"Give orders to the Qianyan soldiers stationed in the Golden House. If someone breaks into the Golden House with great strength, they should save their lives first."

"Oh, right, have the Thousand Rocks stationed in Liyue Harbor start monitoring the Fatui in Liyue Harbor, and have all the Thousand Rocks ready for battle. I have a feeling a storm is coming."

"Lord Ningguang, do we just need to let the Thousand Rocks Army see the Fatui in Liyue Harbor? According to the information sent by the spies, many secret bases of the Fatui have appeared in Liyue recently."

Bai Shishi reminded Ningguang of the current affairs. Ningguang could forget the information, but Bai Shishi, who was responsible for organizing the information of the Fatui, could not forget it. Ningguang smiled slightly at Bai Shishi's reminder.

"Don't worry, the Xumi merchant who cooperated with me will take care of everything."

In a Fatui base, Seno killed the last living Fatui in the base with an expressionless face. After making sure that all the Fatui in the base had been cleared out, Seno walked out.

Outside the Fatui's secret base, Dolly and her people had been waiting outside for a long time. Seeing Seno coming out, Dolly waved her hand, and the people behind her immediately rushed into the base and began to move the valuables in the base. Those that could not be moved were directly smashed. This was the rule set by Dolly not to leave a single needle or thread for the Fatui.

"Thank you for troubling me, Lord Seno. Come and have some water and take a rest."

Dolly handed Seno a pot of tea with a smile. Seno was not polite either. The fighting in the base made him thirsty. After Don Don Don finished drinking the tea, Seno returned the teapot to Dolly and asked coldly.

"Where is the next target?"

"Hey, Master Seno, why don't you take a rest? This is already the sixth Fatui base. Aren't you tired?"

Dolly took out a chair and motioned for Seno to sit down and rest for a while. After all, her subordinates had not yet finished moving things in the base, and Dolly did not want to give up those valuable things in the Fatui base. However, Seno showed no sign of resting and just stared at Dolly.

"My vacation is only three days. Excluding the day for traveling, it is not an easy task to clear most of the Fatui bases in Liyue within two days."

"Moreover, I am not only working for you, but also to seek hope for those disciplinary officers who are living in poverty." Saino clenched his fists and his serious tone did not change at all. Perhaps others did not know what the Liyue man named Zhiyi found out after joining the Order Academy, but Saino, the great disciplinary officer, knew it clearly.

Thinking of the day when Zhiyi handed him evidence after evidence of discipline officials' corruption, bribery and smuggling canned knowledge, and how he personally arrested discipline officials one after another, and even one discipline officer who was still making medicine for his sick daughter during the arrests, Seno felt very sad, because many of these discipline officials just wanted their seriously ill parents, wives and children to survive, but they had no money and could only embark on this road of no return.

So, after Dolly's people found Seno and said that they could provide the discipline officers with a part-time job of making dolls that was well paid and legal, Seno agreed to Dolly's commission to clean up the Fatui base in Liyue without a second thought.

After all, making dolls is something that requires no technical skills and can be made by the families of those discipline officers. In the long run, this will be a very considerable income, and this income is legal income, which makes Seno even more concerned.

Perhaps those Fatui would seek revenge on him, but Seno was not afraid of that. If the Fatui could bear a grudge against him, the disciplinary officers would be able to focus on upholding the justice in their hearts. Even if he had to confront the Fatui executives, Seno would not be afraid at all.

"Alright, alright, I really admire you. You disciplinary officers are really stubborn. You once chased my men across half of Xumi City and almost exhausted them to death."

Dolly complained a few words and took out the map that Ningguang had given her and gave it to Seno. The map marked the location of the Fatui base that Ningguang knew. After looking at the map, Seno put the map around his waist and said something solemnly to Dolly.

"I owe you a favor"

Then, without waiting for Dolly to say anything, Seno immediately ran away. Looking at Seno's leaving back, Dolly smiled, pushed the eyes on her nose and talked to herself.

"I don't know how many Mora businesses I can get for the favor of the great disciplinary officer, Seno. I have to plan carefully."

At this time, Dolly did not realize that the favor that Seno was talking about was not turning a blind eye to her illegal and criminal behavior, but assigning her a separate cell after she was caught. This wonderful misunderstanding will unfold in a wonderful way in the future of Xumi.
In the wilderness, Zhongli stood alone in front of the Seven Heavens Statue, looking up at the statue that symbolized the God of Rock. Once upon a time, this place was a battlefield where all kinds of elemental forces were flying around. At that time, he and his good brother Ruota had not yet suffered the current wear and tear, and none of the old friends around them had left.

In the blink of an eye, a thousand years have passed, and Liyue has now grown from a babbling child to an independent adult. His mission has been completed, and he will let Liyue develop on its own in the remaining time.
Perhaps what Yu Hengxing said was right. He could protect Liyue for a hundred years, ten hundred years, and what about a thousand hundred years? Now it seemed that what he, the Rock King Emperor, and the other immortals needed to do was to protect Liyue when a major disaster occurred.

"Zhongli, we've brought the ointment back. Hey, Zhongli, were you just staring at the statue? Did I make you wait too long?"

"Oh, you're back. I didn't wait too long. Compared to the watch represented by the statue, it was just a short moment."

Paimeng scratched his head, not quite understanding what Zhongli meant. How could Zhongli, who was so young, speak so maturely? Did he think too much and his brain went wrong? As expected, people should just think about what to eat next, just like her, and leave the troublesome things to Ying.
