Theoretically speaking, the stronger you are, the more you absorb, and the sooner you can launch your counterattack.
[Didn't you notice that you didn't need to hold onto the wall to get out of bed today? That's all thanks to the rock element!]
The system said.
"Fine……"
Jiang Ning looked at Shen He's back as he tied his hair up, his breasts full and his hips wide, his waist slender.
Her mere silhouette is enough to captivate many, not to mention her stunning beauty and aloof charm.
Sensing Jiang Ning's gaze, Shen He turned around in confusion: "Want it again?"
Shen He has always been very honest and straightforward, saying whatever comes to mind.
But this was too much for Jiang Ning to bear, so he quickly said, "No, no, we're in a hurry, the Immortal Invocation Ceremony is about to begin!"
Shen He nodded, finished dressing, and then helped Jiang Ning get dressed before generously handing her a red string:
"Junior brother, please help me..."
Jiang Ning: "...Okay."
…………
The Summoning Ceremony is arguably the biggest event in Liyue Harbor.
Therefore, at a glance, the vast majority of people heading up the mountain to Yujingtai are locals from Liyue Harbor.
Of course, there are also many tourists and businessmen from other places who come here because of its reputation.
Looking at the rigorous checks and the ridiculously long queue, Jiang Ning was secretly astonished.
How long will this queue take? Is the Emperor really that charming?
Fortunately, thanks to the special pass given by Gan Yu, the two arrived at the inner area of the Summoning Immortals Ritual without any hindrance.
2018-03-27
Gan Yu was relieved to see that her junior brothers and sisters had arrived on time.
"You've arrived..."
Just as Gan Yu was about to say something, she saw the marks on her junior brother's neck.
This mark looks familiar... and it's new.
Miss Qilin's gaze sharpened.
Then she suddenly looked at Shen He, who was standing to the side.
Shen He remained expressionless, but his somewhat guilty gaze betrayed his true thoughts.
Gan Yu gritted her teeth and clenched her fists.
Shen He, you really are something else. You came again while I was off guard last night, didn't you?
A second chance at marriage, right?
"Sister?"
Seeing Gan Yu's inexplicably angry expression, Jiang Ning was puzzled.
Gan Yu took a deep breath: "Junior brother, tell me, did Shen He force you again?"
Jiang Ning was taken aback, then understood, and her face turned red.
"No, no... Senior Sister, I really wasn't forced by Senior Sister Shen He. I did it voluntarily."
Last night, Jiang Ning learned from Shen He why Gan Yu was so angry, so he quickly explained.
"Really?" Gan Yu asked doubtfully.
Jiang Ning took Shen He's hand and said, "Yes, my senior sister and I are in love with each other."
Gan Yu nodded, "Oh, I see. That's good then..."
At least, I won't go to jail.
Besides, they're already in love, so what would it look like if I played the bad guy?
A vicious fellow disciple?
Gan Yu's idea is now simpler: as long as she doesn't create a baby Jiang Ning before Jiang Ning turns sixteen, that's fine.
However, when she looked away, she saw Shen He's faint smile, and more importantly, Gan Yu understood what Shen He meant.
"I won."
This is Shen He's intention.
Gan Yu was somewhat confused. "Who did you beat? Who are you showing off to?"
Moreover, for some reason, Gan Yu felt somewhat annoyed.
However, the Jade Balance Star over there has already prepared all the procedures for the ritual of inviting the immortals. The auspicious time has arrived, and it is time to respectfully welcome the Emperor.
Gan Yu then refrained from continuing to speak with Shen He, intending to have a proper conversation with him when they returned.
Ningguang, standing below the high platform of the summoning ceremony, witnessed the entire event that unfolded on Ganyu's side.
That was somewhat unexpected.
It seems that Gan Yu's feelings for him are not just simple affection. Judging from the current situation, it appears to be a love triangle between the three members of the same sect.
This kind of chaotic scene is something that happens only once in ten thousand years.
The three disciples of the immortals are: one is half-human and half-immortal, one is exceptionally talented, and the other is a visitor from beyond the heavens.
Honestly, Ningguang even felt that she could pay more attention to the things between these three people later on, just as a story to pass the time during her tedious and complicated work.
Ke Qing's secretary reminded her, and Ke Qing nodded slightly, her delicate face solemn. Her lips parted slightly, and a serious voice rang out:
"The auspicious hour has arrived; let us respectfully welcome the Emperor!"
As he spoke, a lightning contract was plunged into the giant cauldron of the Immortal Invocation Ceremony. Along with it came the heavy aura of the contract, which spread out. Although it was a lightning contract of the lightning element, it was able to make everyone present feel the weight of the Emperor Rock element.
Rock elements provide reassurance.
A golden light emanated from the sky, making all the clouds shine like gold, and a sense of history gradually approached.
The surrounding Liyue citizens showed fanatical expressions, and some even shouted "Lord Emperor".
Foreign tourists and businessmen stared wide-eyed, their shock evident on their faces.
They all craned their necks, afraid of missing a single detail. This was the Rock God! To be able to meet a deity was something one would remember for a lifetime.
Jiang Ning frowned. Why did this rock element seem somewhat familiar?
But he had no time to think. In the clouds, a creature with antlers like a deer, head like a camel, eyes like a rabbit, neck like a snake, belly like a clam, scales like a fish, claws like an eagle, paws like a tiger, and ears like a cow circled in the air before finally hovering above the high platform.
This really is the dragon described by our ancestors! Is Morax, the Rock King Emperor, the Chinese dragon?
Jiang Ning was also somewhat excited. Sure enough, the gods of Liyue should resemble dragons.
"Welcome, Your Majesty."
Those present bowed in respect, with only a few extremely fanatical believers kneeling on the ground.
This is also what Morax once said: there is no need to kneel down, at most a bow is enough.
The head of the Morax was expressionless, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
Ke Qing continued with the procedure: "May I ask Your Majesty, do you have any criticisms of everything that happened last year?"
"Liyue is peaceful and the people live in contentment. There is nothing wrong with the Seven Stars..."
The dragon opened its mouth, and a deep voice rang out, indistinguishable between male and female.
"Then may I ask Your Majesty, are there any new orders for the coming year? And what direction should Liyue take next?"
The Rock King Emperor looked down at Ke Qing with his dragon eyes and said:
"Everything remains the same, let's keep moving forward."
Jiang Ning knew that it basically boiled down to these two questions and two answers.
The thought that just for a brief appearance, for such a short time, it would take so long for the staff to prepare...
It seems that the Emperor is quite a man of principle.
Jiang Ning thought to himself silently.
36. At the forefront of controversy
Just when everyone thought that the next step would be the Emperor's departure, or the final procedure of his week-long inspection of Liyue Harbor.
Some people were even silently praying that the Rock King would bless them with wealth.
However, Keqing took a step forward, which made Ningguang in the audience show an expression of "I knew it."
Keqing asked earnestly, "May I ask, Your Majesty, this is not something I, as a member of Yuheng Star, wish to inquire about, but rather as a member of Liyue..."
"May I ask Your Majesty, Your Majesty has protected Liyue for a thousand years, but will it be the same for the next thousand years, ten thousand years, a hundred thousand years?"
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the room suddenly froze, as if a few drops of cold water had been poured into a pot of boiling oil.
There was an uproar.
Among those present were thinkers, sneering individuals, and, more often, Liyue people filled with doubt and anger.
"Yuheng Star, what are you saying! Are you questioning the Emperor?!"
Some even resorted to swearing.
"What kind of Jade Balance Star is this? Daring to question the Emperor, you are not worthy of being one of the Seven Stars of Liyue!"
The scene was as noisy as a vegetable market.
If it weren't for the Thousand Rock Army blocking their way, and because they were in front of the Emperor, I reckon some people would have gone up and thrown eggs and vegetable leaves at them.
