Genshin Impact: The Great Evil Dragon’s Death System

Keqing wanted to eat golden shrimp balls, so Jing Fantian took her to Wanmin Hall and prepared to ask Xiangling to prepare a golden shrimp ball meal.

But Master Mao told them that Xiangling was not in Wanmin Hall.

Keqing asked, "Did you go out to look for the latest ingredients?"

This is not the first time that Xiangling is not a regular resident of Wanmin Hall. She is not a chef who sticks to conventions. Xiangling's little head is full of various ideas.

She likes to use all kinds of novel ingredients to prepare dishes, which is the creativity of a chef.

Master Mao replied, "No, Xiangling and Guoba went to Inazuma, saying they were applying for the position of chef for some banquet."

Jing Fantian then remembered that Xiangling had gone to apply for the position of head chef for the Seven Gods Banquet.

Chef Mao did not disappoint Keqing: "Since Xiangling is not here, I will take charge of the cooking and make you some golden shrimp balls!"

"Master Mao, thank you for your help!"

"No need!"

Keqing was not particularly looking forward to Xiangling's cooking skills. Although Xiangling's cooking skills were better than Master Mao's, many diners at Wanmin Hall still liked Master Mao's strong cooking skills.

That was the result of time-honed skills, and many of the details were impossible for Xiangling to handle at her age.

The calmness of the older generation of chefs.

Keqing was still talking about Xiangling: "I wonder what Xiangling is doing in Inazuma? That country has just emerged from isolation, and I don't know what it will be like in the future."

"By the way, what do you remember about the party Inazuma hosted?"

Jing Fantian smiled and said, "Of course I have an impression of it. I traveled around the countries at the request of the Thunder God to invite all the gods to attend this banquet."

"A banquet attended by the gods? Could it be possible?"

Jing Fantian nodded: "Yes, it is the Seven Gods Banquet."

Keqing drank a cup of tea to calm herself down.

The legend of the Banquet of the Seven Gods has been circulating in Liyue. It originated from the fact that the most ancient god, Morax, invited gods from other countries to come to Liyue to drink and be guests.

It is said that when Mr. Zhong starts a banquet, all the gods in the world will come to show their support.

No one in the common people has ever attended or witnessed the Banquet of the Seven Gods, but the literati racked their brains to imagine its luxury.

The wine used must be the immortal wine brewed for a thousand years by the immortals. Eating and smelling the fruit can increase one's life span by sixty years. The beauty at the wine party is the legendary goddess...

Keqing also wanted to know the details, not because of her work on Yuheng Star, but out of pure curiosity.

"Was this year's Seven Gods Banquet initiated by General Lei Dian?"

Jing Fantian nodded: "You can say that, but to be more specific, she is Lei Yingying's sister, the previous generation of Thunder God, Lei Dianzhen."

Keqing was a little confused: "Lei Yingying's sister? Who is Lei Yingying? Who is Lei Dianzhen? Isn't there only one Thunder God?"

Keqing's view is consistent with the traditional folk view, which believes that there has only been one Thunder God in Inazuma from beginning to end, and that is General Raiden.

They don't know that Thor is a twin demon god. The previous Thor, Raiden, died in the Battle of Kanreya five hundred years ago.

Jing Fantian circled around like a spy, alert for anyone eavesdropping, then approached Keqing and told her some secrets between gods.

Keqing was filled with disbelief after hearing this. She finally understood why Inazuma's history was so eventful.

It turns out that there have been three Thunder Generals in total.

The first generation was Raiden Shin. Under her rule, the Inazuma Night Parade of One Hundred Demons was full of great demons, and it was the most prosperous period in Inazuma's history.

The second generation Lei Diandian is a reckless man. It is impossible to ask her to kill people more ruthlessly than anyone else, but it is completely inappropriate to ask her to govern the country.

Lei Yingdian used puppet technology to create the Sandaime Inazuma, also known as Shogun Raiden. He then handed over all government affairs to the Sandaime and devoted himself to staying at home.

No matter how fierce the flood outside is, I remain motionless.

He waited until Inazuma really got into big trouble before coming out to clean up the mess.

Of course, the most abstract thing is the time when Jing Fantian went to Inazuma, with the fourth generation Jing Fantian and the fifth generation Yae Kamiko.

The messy government decrees made life miserable for the Inazuma people.

Keqing felt somewhat numb after hearing about Inazuma's chaotic political situation. It was true that the temple was small and the wind was strong, and the water was shallow and there were many turtles.

An island country actually has the Shogunate army and the resistance army. Such a small territory cannot achieve unified government and order. And there is also a country within a country like the Coral Palace?

Now Keqing's ideas about resisting the immortals have changed slightly.

At least Liyue has never had any major troubles and has always been stable.

Liyue was founded by immortals and is ruled by them, but this rule is not derogatory. At least the immortals have never interfered in the administration of the Seven Stars of Liyue.

At most, he would come out to restore order when the Liyue Seven Stars were in chaos.

Many times, the common people trust the immortals more than the Seven Stars of Liyue.

Most people believe that immortals will not compete with mortals like them for food. Instead, it is the people in power in the Seven Stars of Liyue who have very bad consciences and are trying to monopolize the power of the Seven Stars of Liyue.

Sometimes the people who hurt you the most are the ones who understand you best. Even a small act of willfulness on the part of power can make an entire family suffer.

With the negative example of Inazuma, Keqing now seriously thinks about what the people of Liyue really need?

She asked the uneducated Jing Fantian: "Fantian, what do you think the people of Liyue really need?"

Jing Fantian glanced at Keqing and said, "What? You don't want to talk about sex anymore but philosophy?"

"Pfft, be serious. I am now thinking whether my philosophy is suitable for everyone."

Jing Fantian picked up a cup of tea and said as if he had seen through everything: "Your philosophy is that the people of Liyue should be the masters of their own destiny?"

Keqing nodded. "I think there will come a day when the Emperor will no longer honor the contract with Liyue. At that time, Liyue should be governed by humans themselves."

"But is this era really okay? Without the protection of the Emperor and the Immortals, are we capable of protecting this huge Liyue?"

"Without the Emperor's vision that transcends the times, how can we ensure that the decisions we make are correct?"

“Most importantly, will the public trust us?”

Jing Fantian sneered: "Keqing, you are dressed in fancy clothes and tell a beggar that you want to share your wealth with him. Do you think he trusts the Bodhisattva in the temple to be merciful, or trusts you, which will go crazy?"

"..."

Keqing was silent for a moment.

Jing Fantian continued, "To many mortals, the emperors and immortals are selfless, because they do not have the worries of humans and will not fight with mortals."

"But the situation is different for the Seven Stars of Liyue. If one day, the elections of the Seven Stars of Liyue are monopolized by the major chambers of commerce, and the laws are controlled by the rich, then what progress can Liyue make?"

“Are you looking forward to such an era?”

Keqing retorted: "No, we can't be spoiled children of gods and immortals all our lives."

"The child will grow up and take on his own responsibilities. If the mother does not let the child become independent, then she is raising the child as a pet from the beginning."

"The immortals wouldn't think so, and the emperor certainly wouldn't think so."

Jing Fantian was speechless. He thought for a moment and said dialectically, "Keqing, if it wasn't you who pushed for this era of human rule, but someone else, do you think it would be absolutely fair and allow everyone to live a good life?"

Keqing shook her head. "Impossible. People are selfish, including me. The Guild of Commerce is behind the Seven Stars of Liyue. We can never be as fair and selfless as the Emperor."

Jing Fantian was puzzled: "Then you still want to promote such an era?"

Keqing said without hesitation: "Because it is inevitable. If I don't push for it, there will always be someone who will push for it."

"The emperor will grow old, the immortals will disappear, but humans will continue to multiply."

"No matter what the future holds, at least we are in control of the outcome. Humans will learn from experience and know what to do and what not to do."

Jing Fantian said something that seemed to see through history, but also seemed to be nonsense.

“The only lesson humanity has learned from history is that humanity learns nothing.”
