Genshin Impact, but the chat group

Upon hearing Li Yue's words, Zhongli Wendy immediately became interested.

They had originally planned to make Li Yue the new leader of the Heavenly Principles. If Hu Tao became the God of Fire, then Nata would also be under Li Yue's rule, which would be quite good.

However, this is just a simple thought, because Nata now has its own fire god. Although it doesn't communicate much with the outside world due to special reasons, it has its own gods. Mondstadt has Venti's gods, Liyue has Zhongli's gods, Inazuma has Ray's gods, and Sumeru has Nashida's gods. These are all gods who are willing to stand behind Li Yue.

It's different from actively running over and taking someone else's spot.

"Alright, let's not rush things like Nata Vulcan. I have the Holy Grail ritual here. What do you guys think about doing one in Teyvat?"

Li Yue looked at Zhong Li, waiting for Zhong Li's reply.

"From a generally rational point of view, Teyvat is a good option."

"Oh? What do you say?"

Li Yue was curious that the composed Zhong Li had chosen to accept this new external power.

Zhongli also shared her thoughts.

"Regarding what you said before, Li Yue, the Holy Grail draws power from the ley lines slowly, and this slow absorption won't significantly affect the ley lines. However, this extracted elemental power can be used at crucial moments, which is a good thing for both Liyue and Teyvat. So I think it's a good idea!"

"But there's no need for something like the Holy Grail War."

“If you, Zhongli, think the Holy Grail rituals would be beneficial to Teyvat, then I do think the Holy Grail War could be held.”

Li Yue grinned.

"However, the method of holding it will be different from the Holy Grail War in that world."

231. The Sumeru Conquest officially begins!

The proposal for the Holy Grail War was officially announced as a project in Teyvat after a small meeting of Liyue's high-ranking officials.

However, the location of the Holy Grail ritual is a problem. The Holy Grail ritual needs to draw on the elemental power from the earth's veins, so it needs to be held in a place with abundant veins.

Inazuma was ruled out first because its location was too remote, too far from the Teyvat continent, somewhat isolated and overseas, making it unsuitable as a location for the Holy Grail ritual.

Liyue isn't really suitable either, because you never know what's hidden beneath Liyue's surface; after all, Liyue is the most intense battlefield Li Yue knows of.

Therefore, after discussion, Li Yue decided to hold the Holy Grail ceremony in Sumeru!

If we're talking about where the ley lines are most concentrated, Sumeru should be the most concentrated, because it's where the World Tree is located, there are no sealed demons underground, and it's also located in the center of the Teyvat continent.

Therefore, Sumeru is the most suitable place.

To set up the Holy Grail ritual in Sumeru, you need to first master Sumeru. So, it's time to start your Sumeru strategy!

"How's the situation?"

In the backyard of the Hall of Rebirth, a formal high-level meeting of Liyue began.

The Seven Stars of Liyue and the Seven Heroes of the Moon have all gathered here for another high-level meeting.

Li Yue sat in the head seat, looking in the direction of Qixing, and asked about the situation there.

"Yelan successfully infiltrated Sumeru last month. With the help of merchants from Omos Port, she entered Sumeru City and began investigating the Church Council. According to the information that has been transmitted back so far, the Church Council does indeed have problems. It seems that they are cooperating with the Fools of Winter."

Is there any concrete evidence?

Nasita looked curiously at Ningguang, who was giving the report.

"Yes, the executor of the Fools is in Sumeru, and Yelan discovered that he has indeed entered the Order of the Church. Moreover, according to the information obtained, the person he is in contact with in the Order of the Church seems to be the Great Sage."

It's not a problem for the Fatui of Winterfell to make contact with the High Priests of the Order of the North, since the Fatui are considered an official organization of Winterfell. For example, there are Fatui in Liyue, and they also run the Northern Bank.

But if this fool is a doctor, then the situation is different.

Although the Doctor is also a member of the Fools, the things he does are quite terrifying.

He is a typical scholar-type character, and also the kind of crazy character who is willing to sacrifice everything, even himself, to obtain the truth he wants.

As a madman, he looks down on everyone, not even gods!

Such a madman's contact with the Council of the Church is a completely different concept from his cooperation with other executives and the Council of the Church.

Although Narcida was imprisoned in Sumeru for 500 years, she learned about the situation in Sumeru through the Void Terminal. The Doctor had previously conducted experiments in Sumeru, and they were very dark human experiments. Therefore, it is completely certain that the evil part of the Church and the Fools colluded.

"In other words, my previous speculation was correct."

After accepting Ningguang's report, Li Yue nodded in satisfaction.

"The Faculty of Sumeru has fallen because there is no longer any divine oversight over them. If this continues, Sumeru will become extremely dangerous. As a vassal state of Sumeru, we cannot allow such a dangerous nation to be born. Therefore, we in Liyue need a Grass God!"

Li Yue looked at Naxida as she spoke.

"Nasita, you understand what I mean now."

“Father, I understand.”

Having been imprisoned in the Pure Goodness Palace for 500 years, Naxida always felt unqualified. But now, regardless of her qualifications, she must at least step forward to take charge of the situation in Sumeru and prevent it from going down the wrong path. She has to do something.

"Very well, in that case, the strategy against Sumeru can proceed." (Cong)

"Ningguang, Keqing, have the Thousand Rock Army prepare to depart by ship from the sea and head towards Ormos Port."

"Are they going to deploy the Thousand Rock Army right from the start?"

Ke Qing was somewhat surprised.

“No, the Thousand Rock Army doesn’t need to go in right away; they’ll just stay on the outskirts. But I need the Thousand Rock Army to take control of the rest of Sumeru as soon as we’ve taken control of Sumeru City.”

"The Thousand Rock Army on the sea will take control of Ormos Port. In addition, I need another group of Thousand Rock Army to stand by in Liyue Harbor. Once I control Sumeru City, I will open a portal to allow the Thousand Rock Army to travel directly from Liyue Harbor to Sumeru City, thus making it easier to control any troubles there."

Sumeru does not have its own army. The security of both Omos Port and Sumeru City is entirely handled by a 33-person team that cooperates with the Church Council. This behavior of entrusting security work to others is simply outrageous. The Church Council is practically putting its life in the hands of others.

"Lord Rock King, are you heading directly to Sumeru City?"

“That’s right, I’m going straight to Sumeru City.”

Li Yue pointed to herself, and then to Naxida.

"Just the two of us."

"Huh? Just the two of you? This won't do, it's not safe."

Keqing immediately objected. Although she didn't know what the situation was on Sumeru's side, it was too dangerous for just the two of them.

"Don't worry, the two of us can use grass elements, so safety is actually very simple for us."

As Li Yue spoke, she transformed herself right in front of everyone.

A flash of green light appeared, and Li Yue instantly transformed into Wendy.

"I said, if you're going to transform, then transform, but don't turn into my likeness."

Wendy watched from the sidelines, utterly speechless. Last time, after Li Yue transformed, Wendy received a wanted poster, and although the result was quite amusing, now Li Yue was coming again?

"I was just demonstrating, my friend."

Wendy spread her hands, explaining helplessly to Wendy.

"Nasita, you should try it too."

Narcida nodded, then a flash of green light appeared on her body, and she transformed into Wendy's appearance. This made Wendy, who was already speechless, even more speechless. You two father and daughter did this on purpose, didn't you? Of all the people to transform into, why did you have to transform into mine!

"In short, we can both use the grass element, so we can easily ensure our safety. In addition, I can use my spatial ability, so if something really happens, I can come back at any time."

"Indeed, this ability, combined with Li Yue's spatial abilities, would be very safe. Moreover, Li Yue's current combat ability is also very strong. As for Sumeru, I don't think we need to worry."

Zhongli agreed with Li Yue's statement, mainly because among the five of them, only Li Yue and Naxi Da, who both possess the grass element, are currently able to move around easily.

Zhongli, Venti, and Lei are all big shots. One is the Thunder God of Inazuma, and the other two are generals of Liyue. Their personal information has long been sent to the desks of high-ranking officials in other countries.

Therefore, Li Yue and Naxi Da, who can transform using the grass element, are the best choices!

"Very good. Since Zhongli also thinks it's acceptable, let's proceed accordingly. The Sumeru Conquest officially begins!"

232. Yes, Lord Aizen!

Sumeru, the land of wisdom, is distinct from other nations because it is divided into two completely different parts: one is the eastern rainforest, a dense rainforest with the largest forest in Teyvat, and the other is a complete desert.

During the era of the war between demons and gods, Sumeru was ruled by three kings.

Compared to the life-and-death struggles between demons in other countries, the demons of Sumeru were relatively harmonious, but this harmony did not last long.

The Flower Goddess herself had problems, and the Red King also brought back forbidden knowledge and sacrificed himself. Only the Great Tree King survived to the end, and then he also sacrificed himself because of the Kanria disaster 500 years ago. The whole of Sumeru can be said to be peaceful yet not peaceful.

But none of that matters now, because Sumeru is about to welcome a new master!

"This should be my third time coming to Sumeru City."

On the streets of Sumeru City, two figures, one tall and one short, walked side by side.

"Hinamori, how are you feeling?"

"Captain Aizen, this is my first time walking on the streets of Sumeru Castle. I don't feel anything special. On the contrary, I feel very calm."

The tall man wore a white haori, had a head of fluffy brown hair, and wore black-rimmed glasses. He looked very gentle. Beside him, a black-haired girl wore a black shihaka outfit and had her hair tied up in a bun.

"Really? I thought you would have more to say about it."

The man named Aizen adjusted his glasses.

"When I was imprisoned before, I did want to walk around outside on my own two feet. But after being rescued by you, Captain Aizen, I gained my freedom and even found my mother. So now, I've returned to Sumeru, and all I want to do is complete the task you gave me, Captain Aizen."

"Is that so? Then Hinamori, you'd better do your best."

From their conversation, passersby couldn't possibly determine their identities. At most, they could only deduce from their attire that they were from Inazuma. It's not that there aren't Inazuma people in Sumeru, especially since Inazuma recently ended its period of isolation, and everyone knows about Inazuma's renewed development.

Therefore, there's nothing to worry about regarding the appearance of the Inazuma-no-Man in Sumeru.

But if there were outsiders here, they would be terrified.

Why are Aizen Sousuke and Hinamori Momo from the Bleach world appearing in Sumeru Castle? Does this mean Aizen can now travel between worlds?!

That's right, Li Yue and Nasita came from Liyue to Sumeru, and the forms they took were Aizen and Hinamori Momo. Although the previous demonstration of recycling showed that they both turned into Venti, Venti is now one of the three generals of Liyue. Although the Mondstadt leaders are very puzzled as to why the wind spirit who used to follow the wind god went to Liyue to become a general, at least he is now on the list of all nations.

Therefore, neither Li Yue nor Nasida actually transformed into Wendy and came to Sumeru City.

As for why she transformed into Aizen and Hinamori Momo, it can only be said that it was Li Yue's simple mischievousness. Under Li Yue's tutelage, Nashida now possesses considerable combat abilities, especially her skillful use of Wood Release techniques. In addition to Wood Release, she also has the technique Mirror Flower Water Moon. Now, Nashida can easily defeat some demons whose combat power is not top-tier.

After Li Yue's transformation demonstration, Nashida followed Li Yue's instructions and transformed into Hinamori Momo, also named Hinamori Momo. Li Yue, on the other hand, transformed into Aizen, and naturally became Aizen.

Furthermore, since Aizen and Hinamori Momo were completely unfamiliar faces to the Teyvat world, they naturally wouldn't associate them with Narcida and Li Yue, two important figures from Liyue.

"Captain Aizen, what should we do now?"

"Now that we've arrived in Sumeru, we should get to know the locals."
