"Wow! You look just like the Human Emperor!" a young man exclaimed. "If there were a contest to impersonate the Human Emperor, you would definitely win first place."

"I think so too. I was really startled just now. I thought the Emperor had come back to life."

"Alas~ The Emperor's demeanor is unparalleled in the world. There will probably never be anyone as outstanding as His Majesty the Emperor again."

A chorus of sighs immediately escaped from those around.

Bronya asked curiously, "Is this human emperor really that outstanding?"

"Young lady, where did you come from? You don't even know His Majesty the Human Emperor?"

"I am...I am..." Bronya blinked. What should she do?

Seeing that someone was unhappy, Su Chen hurriedly said, "This is my wife. She fled from outside Liyue. She doesn't know the demeanor of our Human Emperor, so I brought her here to broaden her horizons during the Human Emperor's Festival."

"I see!"

"Girl, let me tell you, it's your good fortune to come to Liyue, and it's your greatest blessing to marry someone from Liyue!"

"Enough said, the worship ceremony of the Human Emperor Festival is about to begin, let's hurry over!"

"Come on, brother, you come too. If you do a prayer during the ceremony, I guarantee you and your wife will have three big, healthy babies next year!"

Su Chen and Bronya: "..."

Urged on by a group of enthusiastic Liyue citizens, Su Chen followed the crowd to the statue of the Human Emperor.

A huge altar was placed beneath the statue.

Su Chen looked around and found that all the old acquaintances were there—Fa Nan, Shi Xian, Xiao, He Wuliya and a group of followers of the Human Emperor, as well as Ruo Tuo leading the group, plus the Three-Eyed Five Manifestations Immortal. The sheer size of the formation was terrifying.

Presumably because the Emperor had only recently died, the scale of the Emperor's sacrifice was far greater than in later generations.

“Teacher, this emperor is truly loved by his people,” Bronya whispered. “If I could be treated like this after I die, I would be happy to accept it.”

The festival was so lively, which shows how much the people loved and respected this emperor.

For Bronya, this was nothing short of an honor.

God loves people, and people revere and love God.

Su Chen tapped her on the head: "What nonsense are you talking about? Don't keep talking about dying. With me here, no one can hurt you."

"Hee hee~"

Bronya felt very happy.

The two stood in the crowd.

Since we're already here, we might as well pray to ourselves; it's better to rely on ourselves than to ask others for help.

Because the worship ceremony is spontaneous, the deities are only responsible for carrying out the process. In fact, this should be considered their job, and they do not force the people to worship. However, the people are naturally willing to gather with so many deities.

The entire ceremony lasted for nearly an hour.

After the immortals announced the end of the worship ceremony, Su Chen quietly left with Bronya.

"Hmm?" On the altar, Fa Nan looked at the voice that had disappeared into the crowd, somewhat puzzled: "That person looks so familiar."

"Who does he look like?" Yingda asked.

"The Human Emperor".

Everyone else turned their heads away.

“They’ve already left.” Fa Nan pointed into the distance. “They were just there a moment ago, and it seemed like they had someone with them.”

Heuria gently shook her head: "The Human Emperor has departed, that is an indisputable fact... Vanan, you don't need to be too sad."

"Hmph~ I'm not sad at all."

As she spoke, she turned her head, her azure eyes welling up with tears... You big idiot, you actually just left like that.

...

From Guili Village to Liyue Harbor, I introduced Bronya to the cultural heritage of Liyue and the great deeds of the Emperor and Morax. She was captivated by the epic scenes.

"In that case, the Human Emperor was truly an extraordinary figure. It's a pity he died so young, otherwise I could have learned more from him," Bronya said regretfully.

Su Chen chuckled: "What, you think I can't teach you?"

"Teacher, you're definitely the best!"

Bronya chuckled; she had personally experienced her teacher's profound knowledge and incredible power.

"But teacher, if the Human Emperor is so powerful, then what kind of god is Morax?"

"Him... mature and steady, knowledgeable, powerful, and a bit of a sly fox." He seems serious, but he doesn't even blink when he's scheming.

Su Chen chuckled, "If you have the chance, you should learn more from him. It will benefit you in the future."

"Okay." Bronya was very obedient; listening to her teacher was always the right thing to do.

"Let's go find him."

Although he really wanted to revisit the ancient Liyue Harbor, Su Chen headed straight for Jade Capital Terrace due to time constraints.

He didn't release his aura or deliberately use his spiritual power to investigate, but he found that familiar figure by a secluded cloud platform.

He was betting that his old friend would come to the place where the two of them used to drink and chat.

Sensing someone approaching, Zhongli slowly turned around.

A look of deep surprise appeared in his amber eyes.

"Ok?"

...

One month anniversary of the book's launch!

One month after its release, the book has reached 61.6 words!

It's been a month already. I just checked, the book started on September 9.25th, and now it's October 10.25th, exactly one month. It's unbelievable how 'long' has passed.

Honestly, I've really lost track of time lately. Every day it's just eating, pooping, peeing, writing, and updating like crazy!!!

Then, with over 60 words in a month, I was completely stunned. I wouldn't say I'm number one, but I think I could easily be in the top three, right?

However, the high-intensity release of new chapters also brought about many problems. In fact, looking back, many parts of the plot could have been polished. I have seen many of the points that everyone has mentioned, but there is no way to maintain this level of high-intensity release. The pacing is inevitably very tight, and I unconsciously neglect many details.

Sigh~ I hope everyone can understand. The author is also a human being, not a god, and certainly not the protagonist.

Regarding the latest plot, why wasn't Fontaine mentioned? Those who know, know. It's because only half of Fontaine's story has been released, and the author is waiting for more information. Otherwise, writing it out now would be a betrayal tomorrow. As for Winter, there's no problem, but there's very little information about Winter. There was a consideration of writing about the Executor before, but it wasn't done. Firstly, the protagonist is too strong, and secondly... I forgot, hehe~

In addition, the last two chapters were not very good. They were too involved with the previous simulation character. The original intention was to explain the inherent talent through this and lay the groundwork for the later plot, but it got too involved.

After reading through it, I can confirm that following the story isn't going well either. As expected, there's too little information about Zhi Dong, so most people aren't really interested in reading it. In short, I'll try my best to write a complete storyline for Zhi Dong.

Finally, I'm begging for some monthly votes! Considering how hard the author is working, updating like crazy, please give me first place in monthly votes!!!

Only three hours left to offer the reward! Please, please, please, please, please!!!

Chapter 97 Su Chen: This world has no need for eternal things! Ascend the Throne of the Ice God! [9k5]

The wind blows across the cloud-covered platform, and the sun shines on the high pavilion.

This secluded spot was where Su Chen and Zhong Li often sat in their leisure time. Because they had specifically instructed that no outsiders would come in the vicinity.

However, since the death of the Human Emperor, the blockade here has been lifted, and Zhongli rarely comes. He only comes to pour a couple of cups of wine during the Human Emperor's memorial service.

This has been the case every year for the past eighteen years.

just.

For a moment, Zhongli thought he was drunk when he saw the two people walking towards him.

However, Zhong Li soon realized that he must have mistaken Su Chen for someone else when he sensed the extreme coldness emanating from him.

Before Su Chen and Bronya could speak, he said, "In the Winter Solstice, there is a Demon God of Ice who established a kingdom in the Ophit region to protect all people. The Human Emperor has visited the Winter Solstice several times. When he mentioned it to me, he said, 'I am destined to meet this person.' Today, I have seen that it is indeed true."

Su Chen chuckled: "He once told me that the Geo King of Liyue is unparalleled in the world, and his people can live without worry as long as they are under his protection."

His current simulated identity is an individual that exists independently of Su Chen, so he does not possess the power of the Human Emperor, and Zhong Li naturally cannot recognize him.

After all, some creatures can change in countless ways just by looking at their appearance, so such a situation is not enough to be used as a basis for identification.

Furthermore, the Emperor has only been gone for eighteen years. Even if there were miracles, it shouldn't have happened so quickly.

The two exchanged a few words, which served as a greeting and an acknowledgment of each other's identities.

"Please sit down," Zhong Li said gently, then poured a glass of wine for Su Chen and Bronya.

"Thank you, thank you."

Bronya was somewhat flattered.

The reputation of this old Rock King was known even in the distant Winterlands. Now, having witnessed the splendor of Liyue firsthand, he could see the whole picture from a glimpse. How could he have established such a stable kingdom during the Demon God War without absolute power?

Such a being would actually pour himself a drink.

Bronya found it incredible.

"You're too kind, Rock King."

Su Chen nodded with a smile.

"May I ask what brings Lord Walter here?"

If it's simply a matter of worshipping the Human Emperor, there's no need to come to Yujingtai to find him.

"There are indeed some things that I need the Rock King's help with."

Su Chen recounted the situation in the Winter Kingdom to Zhong Li.

Although the latter was far away in Liyue, he also knew some things about what was happening there.

Winter is not a good place for humans to survive, but it is much better than Mondstadt at this moment. Almost the entire territory of Mondstadt is covered by blizzards, and only in the places protected by the Daedric Lords can humans barely survive.

But since the cold wave hit, the situation has become increasingly worse as winter approaches.

The cold wave has lasted for several years, and the snow has piled up to the point that it's causing a situation similar to the neighboring Mondstadt.
