I, the Rock King Emperor with 21 billion in power, have joined the chat group.

Heartbroken, heartbroken.

His expression suddenly turned cold, and a longbow of water elemental energy instantly materialized in his hand, which he then shot out from the second-floor window.

Long arrows streaked across the night sky, landing on the ground not far away.

Bang bang bang~~!

The sound of muscles colliding with elements suddenly rang out.

D'Artagnan frowned, but then he saw something wriggling in the darkness.

His water elemental longbow struck the thing, shattering with a cracking sound.

"Who?"

After doing all this, he asked in a low voice.

"【Young Master】Datalia BOY?" A strange tone, accompanied by strange voices and words, entered Datalia's ears.

With a serious expression, D'Artagnan nodded slightly to the executor and the lightning mage who came over after hearing the commotion.

Then he leaped up and jumped into the darkness not far away.

Using the faint glow of the water element in his hand, D'Artagnan was able to see the person in front of him.

He was a burly man wearing a short-sleeved vest, with a massive chin and deeply muscular physique. Two extremely bright red hearts were emblazoned on his vest.

D'Artagnan grimaced slightly at the sight of this aesthetic, and, forcing a smile, asked, "Who are you? What brings you here?"

"Hey, Tartaglia boy, I'm the Outer Principle [Seventh Apostle] Sexy Prisoner...mum, nice to meet you."

As the sexy prisoner spoke, he blew a deep kiss to D'Artagnan.

"Ugh!" D'Artagnan nearly choked. He suppressed his nausea and asked in a low voice, "Are you the companion of Reimu Hakurei, the Third Apostle, at the Seven Stars Summoning Ceremony that day?"

"Of course, yes." The sexy prisoner's face, hidden behind a black mask, was expressionless, but his body language was terrifyingly varied.

He would twist his body, show off his biceps, and then show off his shoulder and back muscles.

It felt like participating in a bodybuilding competition.

Ignoring these irritating movements, D'Artagnan cut to the chase and asked, "What brings you here?"

"Of course, I want to discuss a contract with you!"

When it came to business, the sexy prisoner stopped wriggling: "We need the Unhindered Talisman in your hand."

“Hmm…” Tartaglia pondered for a moment, then suddenly laughed: “You want to resurrect the Demon Gods?? Those Demon Gods suppressed by the Rock King Morax??”

"These are things that Tartaglia boy doesn't need to know." The sexy prisoner put his finger to his lips, making a shushing gesture: "Otherwise, your Winter Queen won't be able to protect you in Liyue."

"Oh, threatening me??" A slight smile appeared on D'Artagnan's lips.

"No, I just want to make a deal with you." The sexy prisoner shook his head: "We will help you throw the entire Liyue Harbor, and even the entire Liyue region into chaos, and all you need to do is give us the method to make the Unrestricted Talisman."

“This deal isn’t very fair,” D’Artagnan said, showing some interest.

“We understand what you want, but we have no interest in it. After the First Apostle killed the Rock King Emperor, we dumped his body at the center of the Summoning Ceremony.” The sexy prisoner straightened up: “As long as the Seven Stars don’t cause trouble, the Winter Kingdom will definitely be able to get what it wants amidst the chaos.”

"Hehe~~! Interesting." Datalia pondered for a moment, then reached into his pocket, took out a notebook, and casually tossed it to the sexy prisoner opposite him.

"I'm giving you these things, so please don't let me down."

"Of course, D'Artagnan boy."

After saying this, the sexy prisoner strode away and disappeared into the darkness.

Chapter Twenty: The Arrogant True Lord Liuyun

"I am the True Lord of Cloud Retention and Wind Borrowing. What brings you here? Tell me quickly."

The emerald-green cranes gradually flew closer from the distant celestial abode and landed on the platform where the traveler was.

Her voice, however, was a clear female voice, which sounded ethereal and otherworldly, yet still possessed a certain warmth.

"Such a large cave, with so many mechanisms, do you really live here all by yourself?" Paimon asked innocently, his hands behind his back. "Could it be... that you've secluded yourself here to study mechanical arts?"

"Hmph!" Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun snorted lightly, his tone tinged with impatience: "It's just for some peace and quiet. I've never liked noisy places or socializing with people."

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about that! What brings you here? Tell me quickly, lest you disturb my rest."

At this point, the traveler's gaze suddenly turned serious, as did Paimon's.

He recounted the murder of the Rock King Emperor and the defeat of the Moon-Cutting and Sun-Building True Lord.

At first, Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun seemed somewhat indifferent, but by the end, his expression became increasingly solemn.

Upon hearing of the Emperor's death, she could no longer contain herself and let out a loud cry.

"The Emperor has been murdered?? How is that possible? The Emperor is a ruler of all ages, and the ruler of all people in Liyue. He is destined to live for tens of thousands of years. How could he have been murdered??"

"You must be spreading alarmist rumors and misleading me. I'm going to Liyue Harbor right now to find the Emperor!!"

"do not want!"

Paimon quickly interjected, "It's very dangerous. Didn't we just say that Lord Zhuyang of the Moonlit Pavilion has already been attacked once? What if you go directly to Liyue Harbor and get attacked?"

"Huh??" Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun quickly realized, "You mean, Liyue Harbor is in danger right now??"

“Hmm… indeed.” She calmly analyzed, “The Emperor has been residing in Liyue Harbor for a long time, and only the Seven Stars of Liyue and their secretary, the Half-Immortal Gan Yu, know his true whereabouts. If someone wants to assassinate the Emperor directly, then there must be an inside agent.”

"Thinking about it this way, all seven of the Liyue Seven Stars have problems, and it's even possible that all seven of them betrayed the Emperor. I was indeed rash."

"The emperor established the country based on contracts, but his purpose was not for contracts themselves, but for the fairness contained within them."

“If there is fairness, then the contract can be executed; if there is no fairness, the contract is nothing but a piece of waste paper. In the past, the mortals in Liyue Harbor only valued the contract and ignored the true intrinsic fairness of the contract, which has already troubled the Emperor.”

"But I never expected this time..."

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun looked up for a while, and finally let out a sigh.

She nodded slightly to Paimon: "Thank you for the reminder, traveler."

"From what you've said, you've already spoken with True Lord Xiaoyue Zhuyang and True Lord Lishui Dieshan, and you were even attacked at True Lord Xiaoyue Zhuyang's place. True Lord Xiaoyue Zhuyang couldn't defeat the enemy and instead lost a level. Is that right?"

The young traveler nodded slightly.

"Hmm... I know everything you said, but the token can't prove that what you just said is true... I will verify everything I heard."

"I suppose True Lord of Moon-Shaving and Sun-Building also wanted me to do this."

"Alright, you should leave quickly and not disturb this immortal any further."

No sooner had she finished speaking than a gentle gust of wind swept the traveling girl out of the cave.

Standing at the entrance of the cave, the traveler girl and Paimon looked at each other in bewilderment.

A few seconds later, Paimon quickly recovered: "Alright, Ying, we've managed to notify the three immortals. Let's go to Wangshu Inn now. I heard the immortal there is called Demon-Subduing Great Sage Yaksha Protector General Xiao. Just hearing that name makes him sound like a very powerful fighter. Notifying him might put our safety at ease."

"Um..."

The young female traveler nodded slightly.

He then descended the mountain without saying a word and ran towards Wangshu Inn.

......

"It's this little girl in front of me."

High in the clouds, Accelerator and Reimu Hakurei were leisurely looking down.

What is our mission objective?

Reimu held an oni mask in one hand and an apple in the other, taking bites every now and then.

"Tch! You can't even remember this? Is your brain filled with food? Or did a zombie eat it?"

Accelerator's way of speaking is still as unpleasant as ever.

“Yes!” Reimu replied nonchalantly, “You’re smart enough, just tell me already.”

"Tch~~!" Accelerator, feeling bored, squinted at the Traveler climbing mountains and wading through rivers, and said absentmindedly, "Just like what I did the first time, fight that Yaksha Guardian General - Xiao Gan. Win or lose, stop when you're about to get injured, or find an opportunity to escape when the fight is at its most intense."

“Three thousand points per person, not bad.” Lingmeng patted her belly happily. “This mission wasn’t dangerous, but I was able to get 6 or 7000 points. That’s beyond my expectations. Hehe, I really hope the God of Money will give out more missions.”

"There should be a chance."

Accelerator thought about the chaos that ensued when Zhongli resurrected the characters last time, and felt that this small-scale disturbance was simply not enough to disrupt the history of the world.

However, if you take someone's money, you have to solve their problems.

He himself was not yet at the level to be able to transcend the world line, so to try to figure out Zhongli's thoughts and the method of reversing the world line to revive was really overestimating himself.

Let's focus on the task at hand.

His eyes narrowed, and he spotted the towering inn that was already in sight in the distance.

---【Wangshu Inn】

----The Great Sage Who Subdues Demons, Yaksha Guardian General—Xiao

-----It looks like they'll be a formidable opponent.

......

"Ah~~! I'm exhausted, my legs hurt so much. We've finally arrived at Wangshu Inn."

Paimon hung in front of the traveler, looking utterly overwhelmed.

The traveler pursed his lips and stopped complaining about how she felt pain even though she wasn't walking.

Instead, he looked up at Wangshu Inn and took a deep breath.

She had already inquired with three True Lords about her brother's situation, but none of them knew who the "Guardian of Heavenly Principles" was.

However, they were all certain that the Rock King Emperor was definitely not the "Guardian of Heavenly Principles".

---Hopefully, this demon god called Xiao will find out what's going on.

With this prayer in her heart, the young traveler took a step forward and entered the elevator of Wangshu Inn.
