Genshin Impact: I am the Great General of Liyue

"Ah, it's General Lingling. Don't worry! This time, I've already reported it to the Liyue General Affairs Department. If you want to see it, I have the official permission documents here."

After saying that, Clement made a gesture as if to take out the document.

Huiyuan waved her hand, indicating that she didn't want to watch.

Upon hearing this, Clement smiled obsequiously and said, "I will be conducting archaeological explorations in Liyue for some time, and all the results will be shared with the authorities. I have heard that the Hall of Rebirth has a guest advisor named Zhongli, who is very knowledgeable and learned. So I paid the Hall of Rebirth a large sum of money to hire him as my advisor."

Zhongli originally wanted to refuse the other party and tell Clement to stay away.

It wasn't until the other party said, "They paid a hefty sum to Wang Sheng Tang," that Zhong Li had a reason to agree to their request.

There's no way around it, since Master Hu has already sold himself out, we can't break the contract, can we?

Ying looked at Zhongli and asked, "What should we do?"

"Since it's work, there's no way around it. As a guest elder of the Hall of Rebirth, one must respect this status."

Upon seeing this, Clement stepped forward to shake hands with Zhongli.

"He's certainly a reasonable person! Then let's..."

But Zhongli didn't extend her hand and interrupted the other person, adding, "Ah... Mr. Clement, this Miss Guizhong is actually a guest elder of the Hall of Rebirth. Compared to what I've seen, her wisdom is far superior. If possible..."

Since we're going to make money, let's make as much as possible. That's Zhongli for you!

Clement hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "Of course! Then... I can pay double the amount and ask you two to be my advisors, is that alright?"

"Okay. Please transfer the remaining balance directly to the Wangshengtang account."

"Okay... let's set off now!"

Clement was about to leave after he finished speaking.

But just then, Wanyan stopped Zhongli.

"Wait a minute, if it's an archaeological excavation, can I come along too? I'm an archaeologist as well, and I can offer a lot of help."

Zhongli had no reason to refuse Wanyan's request and readily agreed.

"Let's continue this topic on the way. Oh, and you can come along too."

As he spoke, Zhongli looked at Ying and asked her to join his team.

Ying didn't understand why Zhongli had invited her, so she asked, "Why?"

"The following experiences may be helpful for your future journey. That is a story before the establishment of the Seven Gods system... Although the Demon God has passed away and cannot be your target, it can at least add some meaning to your travel experiences."

After Zhongli gave this explanation, Ying agreed to the team request.

Perhaps because this archaeological research wouldn't be very beneficial for Huiyuan, Zhongli didn't intend to invite him, but Huiyuan still took the initiative to suggest joining.

After all, the aftereffects of not being able to leave Ying for thirty days haven't disappeared yet.

"If Yingmei goes, I want to go too."

Seeing this, Zhongli smiled and nodded in agreement.

"That couldn't be better."

The deal was finalized, but Clement disagreed. "There are too many people! And what's a general like you doing here? Supervising me?"

"Wait, this is an archaeological team, not a sightseeing group! There are too many people!"

Seeing Clement's reaction, Huiyuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

"What, can't I go?"

When Huiyuan said this, Clement was stunned and showed a distressed expression.

Disagreeing means you have something to hide.

If we agree, there will be too many people, leaving us in a dilemma.

Seeing this, Zhongli said to Clement, "Don't worry, it will be much safer with Miss Lingling joining us. Moreover, she is skillful and good at inventing, and the wonders she invents will definitely be helpful to us."

"Uh...this..."

"This traveler has an unparalleled talent for treasure hunting, which is of great benefit to our archaeological expedition."

"What talent?"

"—I will never miss any treasure chest within my sight."

After thinking it over, Clement glanced at Huiyuan furtively and reluctantly agreed.

"It certainly has some appeal. Alright, alright. Let's not delay, let's go see if anything washed ashore when that 'Whirlpool Demon God' was suppressed by the Jade Pavilion not long ago? Antiques, traces, even a fragment of the demon god's limbs would be great... In short, we might find something amazing."

After the matter was settled, the group packed their luggage and headed towards Lonely Cloud Pavilion, the place where the "Vortex Demon God" Oser was suppressed.

Huiyuan and Guizhong whispered to each other the whole way, and basically finished discussing all the topics they could talk about.

For example, Clement's purpose was actually to make money, not archaeology...

Wan Yan's true identity...

What are Wan Yan's motives as a follower of the "Salt Demon God"...?

We've already discussed things like whether Osel might drown underwater.

There's a reason why Huiyuan and Guizhong are discussing these things.

That means she doesn't quite remember the plot. When Huiyuan saw Zhongli on the "Pearl-Inlaid Boat", she already guessed that she might have entered Zhongli's legendary quest.

Although she didn't know why it was such a coincidence, following Ying on her adventures always led to encountering various plot points, so Huiyuan was too lazy to think about it too much.

In order to review the plot, Huiyuan chatted with Guizhong while looking at the plot text sent by Tongzi.

Speaking of which, Huiyuan also discovered something amazing on the way.

That is, when he was talking to the system, he seemed to be able to hear the system's voice. He deliberately stopped and waited for Sister Tongzi to finish speaking before talking to Huiyuan.

The system hasn't reduced the time flow rate either.

Does this mean that there's a system in the final chapters?

The novel has been officially renamed "Rebirth: The Adventure of Returning to the End"?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Just as Huiyuan, puzzled, slowly drifted away from the group, Guizhong stopped and looked at Huiyuan with a sly smile.

"Little Lingling, look what this is."

As she spoke, Gui Zhong pulled out a mobile phone, which was none other than the Tongzi brand mobile phone.

Huiyuan was stunned when she saw this.

I'm wondering, I never gave Guizhong a phone, so why does Guizhong have this phone?

At this moment, as if because Huiyuan's bewildered expression under Lingling's skin was too cute, Tongzi let out a suppressed laugh and began to explain.

"Host, do you remember what I did after I gained control of your body?"

"What did you do...? Did you do something after your resurrection and return to the end?"

"I didn't do anything, please think back."

"Hmm... Oh! Back then, you used my body and my final moments to say a sentence!"

“That’s right. Apart from you, host, Gui Zhong is the second being to have a direct conversation with me.”
