While Nangong Ya was questioning the young man, Yun Jin and Yun Wanjia, who were some distance behind, hurriedly caught up. For an ordinary person like Yun Wanjia, such a long journey was quite tiring.

"Tell me quickly, why did you leave the threatening letter? Was it someone else who instructed you to do so?"

Seeing that the young man turned pale and weak after being pinched by Nangong Ya, Keqing did not continue to hold him. She let go of his hand and continued to ask questions.

"I……"

The boy opened his mouth, but finally chose to speak it out.

His name is Li Qian. He is an orphan who has lived with his sister since childhood.

Since obtaining the Eye of God, he has been working hard to accept commissions from the Adventurer's Association to defeat monsters in order to earn enough Mora to support his sister to go to school in Xumi.

But a few days ago, an unknown businessman handed him a bracelet that was a relic of his mother and had been worn by his sister.

According to the businessman, if he wanted his sister to live, he had to discredit the Yunlun Doll Factory, causing them to break their appointment with Nangong Pavilion and thus cut off their orders from Nangong Pavilion.

Although the money earned by Nangong Pavilion is just a drop in the bucket for big businessmen, what they really want is the unique authorization from the immortals. With just a little operation, they can naturally make a fortune, so they want to replace the Yunlun Doll Factory.

This was also the first time he had done such a thing, and he could only think of stopping the Yunlun Doll Factory from producing such dolls, so that Nangong Pavilion would have no dolls to sell.

"How dare you kidnap and threaten others to commit a crime!"

"Tell me who the other party is immediately!"

Upon hearing that such a thing actually happened in Liyue Harbor, Keqing gritted her teeth and spoke angrily.

"Ahem, it seems that this place has nothing to do with us, so I'd better leave first. Sir Wendy, Sister Nangong Ya, see you next time."

Kaia, who was watching from the sidelines, did not intend to get involved after hearing this. After saying goodbye to Wendy and Nangong Ya, he let the carriage team continue on their journey. The stones on the carriages were all purchased by their Knights of Favonius for repairing the Wind Dragon ruins.

"I don't know his identity, but when I tried to take action, I was suddenly knocked down by someone who seemed invisible."

The young man named Li Qian shook his head.

"The Invisible Man..."

After he said that, Nangong Ya guessed something.

"The debt handler? It turns out to be that bunch of Fatui. Ha... they even want to get the Immortal's authorization. What a foolish dream."

Keqing guessed it at once and couldn't help but snorted coldly.

Ever since the Fatui executive released the Vortex Demon last time, the relationship between Liyue and Winter Solstice has become extremely bad. Winter Solstice's merchants and the Northland Bank have been suppressed to varying degrees.

"My sister has fallen into their hands. Please, Lady Keqing, please save her!"

After telling everything, Li Qian couldn't help crying and begging Keqing. Given the reputation of the Fatui in Teyvat, he was worried that his sister would...

"I will try my best, as for you..."

"According to Liyue law, those who commit crimes under duress still need to bear responsibility. Please come back to the General Affairs Department with me first."

Keqing nodded, then looked at Li Qian scrutinizingly and spoke.

She couldn't confirm whether what Li Qian said was true, so she needed to go back and investigate.

Li Qian nodded in agreement. He felt that although his behavior was bad, it should be more of compensation for damaging the doll, so he shouldn't be imprisoned for long...

"I'm going to take him back to Liyue Harbor first. Be careful on your way back."

Before leaving, Keqing reminded Nangong Ya and the others.

"Don't worry, Auntie. Lady Keqing won't let those people do anything wrong."

After seeing Keqing taking the people away, Yun Jin tried to comfort Yun Wanjia.

Yun Wanjia nodded with a sad look on her face. It seemed that she still found it difficult to feel relieved after hearing the news.

Even if Li Qian was taken away, what if the Zhidong merchant hired people to cause trouble again?

Seeing Yun Wanjia's worried expression, Nangong Ya thought for a moment and looked at Wendy beside her.

"Don't look at me. I'm not that capable."

Wendy spread her hands innocently.

Nangong Ya rolled her eyes at him, knowing that the other party just didn't want to help.

"Wait for me, I'll be back soon."

Nangong Ya said something to Kujo Sara and the others, then trotted over to the back of a rock nearby.

"Help me! Baby Xiao!"

This place was not far from Wangshu Inn. Nangong Ya tried to shout softly into the air.

“…What is it?”

Although he still couldn't accept this title, Xiao appeared beside Nangong Ya the next moment.

"Someone wants to take over the doll factory that makes dolls for my store. Can you please help me think of a solution?"

Nangong Ya asked Xiao.

She hadn't learned any magic back then, and it was impossible for her to stay in the Yunlun Doll Factory.

"…Isn't that great?"

Xiao crossed his arms and spoke expressionlessly. The last time he accidentally saw the [Angry Xiao] in a customer's hand at Wangshu Inn, he knew it must be Nangong Ya's doing.

"Wow, Xiaobao, you've learned bad habits!"

Nangong Ya really didn't expect Xiao to react like this.

"It's just a joke, take it."

Xiao shook his head, took out a ball of wind element and handed it to Nangong Ya.

"I cast a magic on it. It will detect when someone has bad intentions. Just find a container to put it away so that no one can see it."

"I go first."

After Nangong Ya took the ball, Xiao explained something and then disappeared in a flash.

"Hey, goodbye Xiaobao."

Nangong Ya waved at the air, then ran back with the ball.

"Take it, player Yun. This thing has magic cast by an immortal. It will sense if someone approaches with malicious intent. Just find something else to put it in the factory."

Nangong Ya walked over and stuffed the ball of wind elements in her hand into Yun Wanjia's hand.

"Okay, okay, thank you Miss Nangong Ya!"

Yun Wanjia took the ball with some fear, and thanked Nangong Ya repeatedly. She had no doubt about the magic that Nangong Ya mentioned.

After all, her authorization from the immortal was guaranteed by Ningguang of Tianquan Star.

"Oh, by the way, I wonder which immortal left this magical power. This way I can make a statue of the immortal and worship it."

After solemnly wrapping the wind element ball in her hand with white cloth, Yun Wanjia continued to ask Nangong Ya.

"Oh, his name is the Great Sage Who Conquers Demons."

Nangong Ya explained that there should be no problem in looking up the image of the immortal based on this name, so Nangong Ya did not explain anything additionally.

"Yeah, I understand."

Yun Wanjia nodded and wrote down the name of the immortal.

Afterwards, the group returned to Liyue Harbor together.

"Come to think of it, I haven't had time to go to Nangong Pavilion. Actually, I'm also very interested in the immortal's dolls."

After returning to Liyue Harbor, Yun Jin suddenly smiled and spoke to Nangong Ya.
