Genshin Impact: The Sage's Disciple Doesn't Want Fame

The familiar lines were recited slowly by Hu Tao this time. She was not a fanatical follower of Morax, but she was, after all, a native of Liyue, and her admiration for the former Emperor was genuine.

Farewell, Your Majesty.

Zhongli, a guest elder of the Hall of Rebirth, was carrying a wooden ladder, ready to go. Once the furnace lid was opened by the wind element, he took out the ashes with Wendy, put them into a sealed jar, and then placed them into a coffin that had been prepared in advance.

Afterwards, Hu Tao turned to look at Ji Ming and gave the immortals a suggestive nod.

Ji Ming understood and immediately began preparations for the second phase, which was to prevent the wear and tear from escalating.

Even though Morax intended to conceal it, the former emperor would not stand by and watch his subordinates and comrades suffer from the pain of being worn down. So he asked Ji Ming to resolve the matter for him and, incidentally, win back the hearts of the immortals.

After helping his master steady himself, Ji Ming took a deep breath.

Seeing this, Xiao resisted the urge to cover his ears and simply closed his eyes.

"There has never been a savior! Nor do we rely on gods or emperors!"

As expected, the immortals who were just filled with sorrow suddenly froze on the spot, and the blackish-purple gas wrapped around their bodies began to hiss, as if they were being evaporated. Only Ji Ming could see this.

Wear value ↓

The dark purple aura around them disappeared, but the faces of the immortals began to turn black, including the True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng who was lying on top of Ji Ming.

Blood pressure ↑

Out of consideration for his disciple's feelings while they were out in public, True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng said with slight dissatisfaction, "Your Majesty, is this all you know how to say?"

Couldn't you sing something nicer? Singing this kind of song at a funeral feels a bit like lashing out at the late emperor.

"Just tell me if it works or not, Master."

Ji Ming never explained his actions in much detail. He only wanted to help the immortals remove the wear and tear. As for Morax's desire to win people's hearts, that was actually not very necessary.

Among the many immortals, the wear and tear on Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun was actually not much, because she rarely performed combat duties, but rather participated in the battlefield as a logistics-type immortal who was skilled in barriers and mechanisms.

Of course, there will still be some.

Soon, the immortals realized the changes in themselves and, recalling the song they had just heard, immediately understood what Ji Ming had done.

Actually, the Little Emperor's singing is quite good, but it easily raises blood pressure, which is a bit unbearable.

"Everyone, please disperse for now. The funeral is not over yet, and the late emperor's coffin needs to be transported back to Liyue Harbor."

The burning of the golden dragon to ashes was carried out secretly outside Liyue, with Sages and their disciples on guard. In addition, Ji Ming's own reconnaissance abilities ensured that there was no need to worry about anyone infiltrating.

Now that the ashes have been placed in the coffin, Ji Ming, according to plan, prepares to teleport back to Liyue Harbor with the others to officially preside over Morax's funeral.

Xiao stepped forward and said little: "Your Majesty, I will accompany you."

Ji Ming shook his head: "No need. There are still immortals in Liyue Harbor. I appeared in a dream to Lord Gechenlang and asked her to take care of Liyue Harbor for the time being."

The True Lord of Songchenlang City is none other than Granny Ping. This elder also knows that Morax has not passed away, so Ji Ming arranged for her to temporarily take charge of Liyue Harbor.

It's kind of funny, we've never really spoken to each other when we've met before, and now we're having a proper conversation, but it's all through dreams.

Next time, let's find an opportunity to pay a formal visit. After all, he is a senior and Xiangling's master. When we go to propose marriage in the future, we will inevitably have to offer him a drink, and he may even have to kneel down and kowtow.

Hey, Little Emperor, are you ready to kowtow, Granny Ping?

After thinking for a moment, Ji Ming announced, "Then that's settled. Everyone, there's no need to be too sad. The late emperor has passed away, but Liyue still has me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Ming and the others disappeared, along with the coffin containing the ashes of the golden dragon.

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun flapped her wings, just about to leave, when she saw Shen He, who had returned from the outer perimeter guard duty, walk straight toward her expressionlessly.

"Master, it must feel very comfortable to lean on your junior brother, right?"

Damn... what's wrong with leaning on me? Didn't you want to lean on me too?

Wait a minute, betraying your master and ancestors is unacceptable! You heartless disciple who always sides with outsiders!

Chapter 207 The Harem Is Not Allowed to Interfere in Government Affairs

According to the calculation, Ji Ming teleported to the Jade Capital Platform with perfect accuracy. Ke Qing, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly came forward, with a few tears still glistening in the corners of her eyes.

Hu Tao was a little surprised: "Huh, cat... Lady Keqing, why are you crying? Are you too sad?"

Were you just trying to call for the cat?!

Seriously, you've all been corrupted by those hooligans. It's one thing for him to call you "cat," but why are you all doing it too? It's so embarrassing!

Also, it's not because I'm too heartbroken!

It's like the sudden death of the late emperor, and the once colossal golden dragon that blotted out the sky is now placed in a small coffin, so there's no reason to cry over such a thing!

Woohoo...

Ke Qing bit her lower lip, glanced at the solemn and composed coffin a few times, her eyes red as she looked away and quietly took a few steps toward Ji Ming.

Ji Ming didn't say anything, but simply stepped forward a few steps to block Ke Qing, who was temporarily unable to control her emotions.

A broad back gives one a sense of security.

Temporarily transforming into a soft, cuddly kitten, Ke Qing quickly wiped away the tears that were about to fall.

Zhongli and Wendy turned around consciously, and at the same time, they followed Ji Ming's example and blocked the view of those around them.

Ahem, Wendy, your height...

Listen to me, if you can't stop it, don't try to be a hero.

Noticing Ji Ming's teasing gaze, Wendy wasn't annoyed and smiled at him.

Well, height doesn't matter. The wind spirit can change size at will and can take on any form, as long as Amin likes it.

Soon, Ke Qing composed herself and once again became the dashing Yuheng Star, standing shoulder to shoulder with Ji Ming, and asked with a capable expression, "Have you prepared your answer?"

"I say whatever comes to mind; political posturing doesn't warrant performing at a proper funeral."

Ke Qing glanced at him sideways: "You look like you have a very good conscience."

What do you mean by "seemingly, he has a good conscience"?

"Speaking of Senior Sister Gan Yu, she'll be coming out in a bit."

"They're assigning tasks in the office. I just received one."

Wow, the Seven Star Secretary is pretty domineering.

Ji Ming chuckled and asked, "Who's taking on the mission now?"

Ke Qing curled the corners of her lips: "The light of Tianquan Star is concentrated."

"I think she doesn't need to take on the mission anymore."

"What's the rush? Let Lord Tianquan Star continue to contribute. Anyway, you've already decided to abolish the Seven Stars, right?"

If you don't want to abolish the Seven Stars, then there's no need to let Gan Yu gradually take back their power. Now, she even has to report to do something, and the Jade Balance Star seal has been taken back.

Oh well, there's nothing I can do. Some heartless scoundrel is my future husband, so I have no choice but to obey.

If she can't become one of the Seven Stars, she can at least help Gan Yu with some work. If the hoodlum really wants to prevent all businessmen from ruling, then she can take some time to learn business and run her own small business in the future, without having to get involved in politics.

Doing business is quite difficult for her; she's a bit of a handful.

If all else fails, use your body to seduce the thug and get him to do some unimportant work, even something as simple as organizing documents. It's better than the cutthroat business disputes.

Walnut leaned closer: "What are you thinking about, kitty?"

Ke Qing said sternly, "I am Yuheng, one of the Seven Stars. Miss Hu Tao, you must show me respect."

Hmph, what a staunch and unyielding Yuheng!

In terms of family background, I, Walnut, am no less than you.

In terms of romance, it was Ji Ming who pursued me.

In terms of status, you and I are equals as concubines.

In conclusion, I, Walnut, am slightly better than you!

Hu Tao hummed and chuckled, "Hey, we're all family now, why be so formal, right, kitty?"

Ke Qing couldn't hold back any longer. She reached out and pinched Hu Tao's cheek, saying with displeasure, "When you're at work, you should address her by her title, Consort Tao!"

"Cat Princess!"

The two of them couldn't hold back any longer. They each grabbed Ji Ming's waist with their hands, lowering their voices to question him: "You bastard, what exactly did you say to other women?!"

Ji Ming grimaced, trying to ask the two old men watching the show for help, but his allies remained unmoved. He could only force a smile and say, "We're all family, just kidding."

Can you really just say these playful things as a joke?

After reprimanding Ji Ming, Hu Tao grinned and whispered in Ke Qing's ear, "Kitty, I'll tell you a secret: Ji Ming is trying to woo two Inazuma women, the two leading the Inazuma delegation."

Keqing: "?!"

What a strange thing! We agreed to discuss it, so why didn't you discuss it with her?

Keqing sighed and asked, "How many Mondstadts are there?"

Ji Ming understood instantly: "One."

Ke Qing then asked, "How many Inazuma do you have?"

Ji Ming replied, "Two."
