I'm not feeling right when I transform into Keqing

After an unknown amount of time, Keqing heard someone whispering in her ear.

"How is it possible...it can't be human."

"Liu Yun, why are you so stubborn? What else can you be but a human?"

"It's a cat."

"Isn't this the joke you made earlier? Don't let the Immortal Lord hear you saying this."

"She told me so herself."

"Then why haven't we heard you mention it often?"

"Because I promised her not to say anything nonsense, and I, Liu Yun, am not a gossipy person."

……

Just as several immortals were talking in low voices, Ganyu suddenly saw the figure on the bed move.

"Hey! Wake up!"

"Awake?" The immortals were surprised.

Ganyu immediately ran to the bedside. At this time, Che Qing slowly propped herself up and looked at everyone.

Although all the immortals had some injuries to varying degrees, not a single one was missing.

"Where's Ningguang?"

"Lady Ningguang... is outside..." Ganyu said softly.

"Why are you outside?"

No one answered Keqing's question.

Signaling Ganyu that she didn't need to support herself, Keqing got off the bed and walked out the door.

It seemed that several immortals did not dare to say anything and made way.

Pushing open the door, Keqing saw Ningguang was fine outside and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Scared me."

The expressions of those immortals and their reluctance to answer made her think that something had happened to Ningguang.

But Ningguang seemed a little strange. She kept her back to him and didn't turn around when Keqing spoke.

Keqing looked up and noticed something strange.

"Where is your Qun Yu Pavilion?"

Immortals: "..."

Chapter 117: Contract Establishment

The sky was clear blue, and all the previous haze had dissipated.

In the distance is a pool with rippling blue waves and green lotus, and farther away on the green lawn, the bright red and tender pink neon flowers are also intact.

It was as if the disaster that befell Liyue Harbor was just a nightmare.

But Keqing still saw countless stones and debris on the dock under Yujing Terrace. People were cleaning the streets and repairing damaged houses and walls, which proved that it was not a dream.

Keqing is at Yujing Terrace, and now she is standing on the attic of Yuehai Pavilion.

There was no doubt that she must have slept for a long time, and she didn't even know where the Jade Pavilion above her head was.

Thinking about Keqing is even more strange. Most of the houses in Liyue Harbor are intact, so where is Ningguang's huge Jade Pavilion?

"Ningguang, where is your Qunyu Pavilion?"

Seeing that Ningguang didn't answer, Keqing asked again.

At this time, Ganyu walked to Keqing and whispered to Ningguang's back: "Sister Keqing just woke up... her consciousness is still a little fuzzy..."

"I'm wide awake... I just still feel a little pain," Keqing retorted.

Ganyu was helpless, and Ningguang turned her head and looked at her sideways.

"you're awake?"

Seeing that Ningguang finally paid attention to her, Keqing also walked forward.

There were no scars on Ningguang's face, neck, or hands, and her eyes were clear, and she seemed to be fine.

Then why have you ignored me for so long?

"How long have I slept?" Keqing asked.

"Seven days."

"what?!"

Keqing stared.

No wonder it seemed as if nothing had happened in Liyue Harbor. Apart from some damaged houses, people were still walking around and living as usual.

Seven days may not be enough to accomplish much for a free country like Mondstadt.

But in Liyue, and under the leadership of Ningguang and the immortals, it was easy to restore order and resume production.

So when Keqing woke up, everything was back to normal.

However, since seven days have passed, even if Ningguang used the Qun Yu Pavilion to evacuate the people, she should have returned by now.

That brings us back to the original starting point.

"Then where is your Qun Yu Pavilion?" Keqing asked again.

Ningguang glanced at her. It was obviously a very ordinary glance, but Keqing felt that Ningguang seemed to be suppressing her inner anger.

“You really don’t remember?” Ningguang asked calmly.

But even Ganyu beside her knew that Ningguang was a little angry, so Keqing couldn't be unaware of it.

Bearing the power of the earthly god that did not belong to her and overusing elemental power only caused some injuries to Keqing's body, but certainly no loss of memory, otherwise Keqing would have become a fool who could only mumble.

Ningguang seemed to mean that Keqing knew where the Jade Pavilion had gone.

Keqing frowned slightly, thinking back.

Pictures flashed through his mind, and finally stopped at the moment he opened his eyes after obtaining the inheritance.

At that time, the huge floating building in the distance had disappeared, and turbulent waves appeared in the sea below her. Countless demons of all sizes were restricted in their movements by the waves or shock waves.

"Is it... that time?" Keqing was startled and remembered.

At that time, her attention was basically on the wonderful feeling of having just obtained the inheritance. Looking back now, it was indeed the case.

Keqing thought she was lucky at the time, as those demons were just about to land on Liyue Harbor and destroy this thousand-year-old foundation, the pearl of the continent.

But now it seems that it was not because she was lucky, but because someone made sacrifices.

Keqing looked at Ningguang, frowned, and asked slowly: "You used the Jade Pavilion... as a cannonball?"

"It is regarded as the 'pillar of the world.'" Ningguang corrected Keqing's unliterary adjective.

However, there was no refutation about Keqing's speculation.

In other words, Ningguang really used the Qun Yu Pavilion as a cannonball and threw it into the sea.

It suppressed the demons for a few breaths, and also bought Keqing precious time to destroy them in one fell swoop.

After a moment of silence, Keqing looked at Ningguang, who had a calm expression.

Perhaps most people in Liyue Harbor thought that Ningguang had too much money to spend, or that she spent a huge amount of time and labor to build the floating palace in order to show her authority.

Although Keqing usually says this on the surface, she also understands what the Jade Pavilion means to Ningguang.

That was her original dream, an affirmation of her life, the driving force behind her actions, and her footprints on the road to pursuing her dreams.

Although Keqing has learned a lot of words of comfort, she doesn't know how to say them when she needs them.

As a staunch supporter of her plan, Keqing could entrust all trivial matters to her and go to Mondstadt alone with peace of mind, but she never expected that Ningguang would be willing to give up the Jade Pavilion.

After hesitating for a moment, Keqing moved her lips slightly. Just when she thought of something to say to comfort her, she suddenly saw a smile on Ningguang's face.

"What are you laughing at?" Keqing asked curiously.

The atmosphere was already lively, but Ningguang's smile was like a big broom, sweeping all the sadness into the sea.

“Fortunately you remembered, otherwise the Jade Pavilion would have been abandoned in vain.” Ningguang smiled.

"..."

Looking at Ningguang, ever since she woke up, her gaze had always been towards the distant Liyue Harbor, the beach.

That was the new Guyun Pavilion, which was also the place where the Qunyu Pavilion fell.

Ningguang must still have some memories of the Qun Yu Pavilion.

"Do you regret it?" Keqing asked.

Ningguang nodded: "A little bit."

"Because there are still a lot of things in there that I haven't had time to move out."

This... is indeed in line with Ningguang's personality. The group of jade pavilions is not only Ningguang's office, but also her resting place and her treasure house.

Keqing guessed that Ningguang was probably reluctant to part with those hundreds of millions of Mora.

But when Keqing comforted her that she could still earn money even if Mora was gone, Ningguang shook her head and said, "It's not Mora that I regret."

"It's clothes and jewelry."

"Clothes and jewelry?"

“Yes.” Ningguang sighed, “There are also a lot of clothes and beautiful jewelry that I customized for you.”

"I originally wanted to let you try them on one by one after the plan was completed, but unfortunately... now they are all gone."

So the reason why Ningguang had been standing outside in a daze was actually because of something like this?

I am really impressed by Keqing.

She rolled her eyes and said, "You can just make those things custom made. They're not out of print."

As if enlightened, Ningguang's eyes lit up: "It seems to be true."

Then he held his chin in his hand and said in distress: "But... those are specially customized... I even lost the size."

“Just measure it again.” Keqing said.

“Yes.” Ningguang nodded, then held her chin up: “But I… some custom-made clothes still need to be tried on…”

"Then I can just try it on."

“Okay, the contract is established.” Ningguang nodded, then looked at Ganyu with a smile and said, “Ganyu, please be my witness. I will definitely present two boxes of the best Qingxin Cakes as a token of my gratitude.”

"Ah! Two boxes...then...well, okay then." Ganyu nodded reluctantly and agreed.

Keqing: “?”

Chapter 118 118. Bracelet

If Ningguang used some tricks, then she would be lucky to be sold and help count the money.

Most people don’t even know how they offended Tianquan, and they are sent to Liyue Prison through legal channels as soon as they wake up.

As the Seven-Star Jade Balance, Keqing is also very familiar with Ningguang's methods. Just with Ningguang's blink, she knows what this guy is thinking.

Of course, I was on guard against her little tricks, but she set a trap directly like she did today, and she stood in this attic for so long, with such patience and scheming, and she even took advantage of Keqing's sympathy just to customize some clothes and jewelry for her.

This was something Keqing had not expected.

She even suspected that the crash of the Qun Yu Pavilion was too much of a shock to her and caused problems with her brain.

"Okay, now that the contract between us has been established, I will get down to business." Ningguang said with a smile.

Once the conversation got down to business, Keqing came to her senses.
