Keqing left the Qunyu Pavilion and rushed down from the Yujing Terrace towards the Hall of Rebirth, sparks flying everywhere. To save time, she flew there one lightning wedge after another.
"Hello, is Zhong Gui home?"
"..."
"Hello there!"
"Huh? Huh! Lord Yuheng Star? Sorry, I was just spacing out." The young maidservant at the entrance of the Hall of Rebirth was startled.
Yi Guan Xiao Mei was already used to being in a daze. After all, in Liyue, life and death were always taboo topics. People generally avoided talking to the disciples of the Hall of Rebirth. Out of respect for ancient traditions and the deceased, the disciples of the Hall of Rebirth and their families would not talk to each other.
She hadn't spoken to anyone outside her sect for a long time; she usually just spaced out. After all, they didn't need to solicit customers; those who needed them would come to them on their own.
Note: Except for the leader of Walnut Hall!
"Lord Yuhengxing, may I ask what brings you to the Hall of Rebirth?"
I've never heard of anyone in Yuhengxing's family getting sick or having an accident going to Bubulu instead of Wangshengtang.
The seemingly calm and collected young lady was actually quite the character inside.
Ke Qing looked at Yi Guan Xiao Mei with suspicion. She felt as if her family members had appeared to be in trouble in other people's eyes for a moment.
"I'm looking for Mr. Zhong Gui, but I don't know if he's here."
"Mr. Zhong Gui is here. You... um, if you don't mind, please come in and have a seat. I'll go and inform him right away."
Actually, there is no place to receive guests at the ancestral hall.
Typically, the client's representative would remove the wooden sign from the wooden board at the entrance, write down the message, and then slip it into the crack of the ancestral hall's door.
Then the ancestral hall received the message and started working.
Ordinary ancestral halls do not have a place to receive guests, let alone a high-ranking guest like Yuheng Star.
I have no experience, what should I do?
Yi Guan Xiao Mei, troubled, led Ke Qing inside. As they walked, she pondered and finally led Ke Qing to the pavilion in the courtyard where they were resting. After pouring tea, she went to Zhong Gui's courtyard to inform him.
"Who? Ke Qing, the Star of Jade Balance?"
"Yes, Mr. Zhong Gui, do you wish to see Lord Yuheng Star?" asked the young maid.
She was very polite to Yuhengxing because Yuhengxing was a big shot in Liyue, but whether Zhonggui would see her was another matter entirely.
After all, the Hall of Rebirth is no small fry. Although they don't cause trouble in Liyue, they've never been afraid of anyone.
She is also a legitimate member of the Wangshengtang (a Buddhist temple), the kind that comes from her family tradition.
"Hmm... I'll meet her. I wonder what she's here for."
Zhong Gui nodded and led Shen He out.
Yi Guan, following behind, looked at the tall Shen He and couldn't help but purse her lips.
Master, you really can't compare to them.
I'm not fierce enough, and I don't even have a butt, so I really don't know how to support you.
Swish!
Noticing the strange gaze behind him, Shen He turned around abruptly, a red glint unconsciously flashing in his eyes.
The young female attendant exclaimed, "So fierce!"
Zhong Gui reached out and turned Shen He's face towards him, saying, "Watch where you're going."
Shen He lacks common sense; she'd rather take action than talk. Zhong Guizhen is genuinely afraid she might suddenly attack Yi Guan's younger sister.
After all, in her mind, if she encountered someone who showed hostility or ill intentions towards her, she could simply press their head down and slam it to the ground three times to solve the problem.
By the way, who taught him this?
Even the most eloquent chatterbox wouldn't act like this! You even said Shen He is like you? Were you like this when you were young?
"Lady Keqing, is there something you need from me?"
Zhong Gui doesn't interact much with the Seven Stars of Liyue, nor does he have a personal relationship with Keqing. The only recent interaction they've had is because of Gan Yu.
"I came here because of Gan Yu."
Zhong Gui: "..."
Is it so direct?
Just then, a streak of light flew down from the sky and finally transformed into a letter in front of Zhong Gui.
Ke Qing had seen this before; it was the kind of letter that Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun gave to Gan Yu.
Zhong Gui is indeed an immortal. The girl next to him must also be an immortal, right? There's no way to fake the aura of an immortal.
Zhong Gui glanced at Ke Qing, unsure whether to accept the letter.
P.S.: I accidentally fell asleep. I'm so sleepy. I need to catch my breath, and then I'll update again.
Thank you to "zlice", "我要做龙王", "忆城旧梦", "低低", "carefree", "空中劈分的旅行阴阳师骂死他", and "最爱施簰火" for the monthly tickets and update requests. Thank you to "空中劈分的旅行阴阳师骂死他" for the donation. Thank you everyone.
Chapter 33 Not a single Liyue person can be missing.
He really is an immortal.
Keqing confirmed it when she saw the letter.
Previously, it was just speculation; even if it were certain, it was not conclusive. As long as the other party did not admit it, they had no evidence.
If he wasn't an immortal, why would an immortal send him a message?
Zhong Gui: "Do you think it's possible that this is a letter from the mother-in-law to the son-in-law?"
"You might as well say it's a gift for this young lady," Ke Qing said, glancing at Shen He.
"Yes, yes, it's for her."
Keqing: "~_~"
Shen He: "For me?"
Shen He reached out and took the floating letter with a puzzled expression. He then channeled his power into it, only to find that he couldn't open it.
"For you."
Looking at the letter handed to him, Zhong Gui silently accepted it.
Ke Qing: "Do you need me to step aside for a while?"
Ke Qing knew that the letters sent by Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun were all video streams, and if she were present, it would be considered invading someone's privacy.
Zhong Gui smiled, then took the letter and left the courtyard.
A short while later, Zhong Gui suddenly burst in.
"Gan Yu resigned!?"
Faster than a Thunder Wedge!
Looking at Zhong Gui who suddenly appeared in front of her, Ke Qing couldn't help but sigh in her heart that he truly deserved to be called an immortal.
Given this difference in power alone, Keqing couldn't fathom how Liyue could separate humans from immortals.
"Keqing, Gan Yu resigned?"
Zhong Gui was somewhat anxious and no longer cared about the respectful title given to the Seven Stars.
Ke Qing didn't care; she felt a little overwhelmed when the immortal called her "Master."
"Gan Yu resigned after meeting with you the day before yesterday. Although it hasn't been officially approved yet, it seems like she's tacitly agreeing to it, and then she left Liyue Harbor."
Ke Qing briefly explained what had happened, then asked, "Mr. Zhong Gui doesn't know?"
"do not know."
Zhong Gui shook his head listlessly.
Gan Yu's resignation may seem like it has nothing to do with him, but it is actually very important to him.
Gan Yu resigned. Who has the ability to handle the high-intensity work of a changing era? Maintaining a secretariat is much more troublesome than maintaining a Gan Yu.
Um...wait a minute.
If I marry Gan Yu in the future, wouldn't it be better if she didn't have so much work? Thinking about it that way, having a secretary seems like a pretty good deal, right?
Just kidding, otherwise we'd have to bother with the Seven Stars' affairs.
"Ke Qing, you've come because of Gan Yu? Do you want me to invite her back?"
"Yes."
Keqing nodded.
"Liyue is in complete chaos right now. We only realized how much work Liyue had to do after losing Ganyu."
I used to be able to experience the Liyue Craftsmen, even selling beef offal at the docks, all thanks to Gan Yu filtering out a lot of the work.
Now I don't have time to wander around Liyue, Uncle Tian doesn't go fishing anymore, and even Ningguang can't be elegant anymore.
If Beidou were to return at this moment and see Ningguang now, she would laugh herself to death.
Judging from the current situation, it will take Qixing a month or two of busy work to adapt to the current workload, and then she can gradually be freed up to return to her previous life.
