Transmigrating to the world of Genshin Impact and becoming a big shot.

After waiting for a while, Chef Mao brought over the fragrant food, and Zhao Chuan and Jiang Li began to enjoy it.

"This fish is incredibly delicious, with tender flesh and a perfect level of spiciness!"

Zhao Chuan took a bite of the fish and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Of course, this fish is cooked perfectly. Your sister didn't lie to you, did she?"

Jiang Li echoed this.

Next, they tried other dishes.

"Master Mao's culinary skills are truly superb. Every dish is excellent in color, aroma, and taste, leaving a lasting impression."

They praised every dish, Zhao Chuan complimented.

"Master Mao's skills are indeed well-deserved!"

Jiang Li nodded in agreement.

While enjoying the meal, Zhao Chuan praised Chef Mao's culinary skills highly, giving high marks to each dish.

After tasting it for a while,

At this moment, a tall man walked into Wanmintang. He had brown hair, a serious expression, and an elegant demeanor.

"Oh, this is my young friend Zhao Chuan. It's been a long time."

At this moment, the man saw Zhao Chuan eating and said something.

"Brother Zhongli, come, come, sit here."

When Zhao Chuan heard someone call him, he turned around and saw Zhong Li standing at the door. He quickly stood up and greeted him warmly.

Zhongli then sat down at the guest table without ceremony, and Zhao Chuan called the waiter to bring another set of bowls and chopsticks.

"Young friend Zhao Chuan brought little Jiang Li out for dinner?"

Zhong Li smiled as she spoke, still smiling at Jiang Li, a smile full of affection.

"Hello, Uncle Zhongli."

Jiang Li respectfully returned Zhong Li's smile.

"Yes, I came back after the matter of Sumeru was over."

Zhao Chuan nodded and said.

"Yes, things have been a bit unsettled in Liyue lately, so you should be careful when you go out."

Zhongli took a bite of food slowly and said.

"Is that so? Brother Zhongli, this is something I need to handle."

Zhao Chuan put down his chopsticks and said calmly.

“Ah, young friend Zhao Chuan, Liyue is now in an era of human rule. These matters should have been resolved by the Seven Stars, but this matter is beyond human control.”

Zhongli also put down his chopsticks, frowned slightly, and gently shook his head.

“An enemy that even Senyan-kun couldn’t contend with, what level must it be?”

Zhao Chuan exclaimed in surprise, but quickly regained his composure.

"Well, this could very well result in a lot of deaths."

Zhongli couldn't bear to see any more casualties in Liyue Harbor, but he couldn't help either. Xiao had to protect the inn, and the other immortals had their own things to do. Even if they didn't, the proud immortals wouldn't intervene.

Liyue has strength, but it must be based on the Emperor's position.

Zhao Chuan thought this way, but he didn't expect Ningguang to be such a capable leader.

"Alright, since Brother Zhongli has said so, I'll go and discuss it with Ningguang. I'll take on this matter."

Thinking of this, Zhao Chuan had no choice but to agree.

"Then I'll have to trouble you with this matter, young friend Zhao Chuan. It's getting late, I should head back now, otherwise the hall master will be angry."

Zhongli stood up and said.

"Okay, then I won't see you off."

Zhao Chuan stood up calmly and said.

After Zhongli left, Zhao Chuan's eyes became serious, and his expression became somewhat unnatural.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

Jiang Li poked her head out and said that she had been eating quietly while Zhao Chuan and Zhong Li were chatting. She knew that her brother was going to protect Li Yue and had important business to attend to, but seeing Zhao Chuan standing there in a daze, she couldn't help but ask.

"I'm fine. Have you finished eating? We should go back now."

Zhao Chuan turned to look at Jiang Li and said gently.

After saying goodbye to Master Mao, he returned home and took care of Jiang Li until she fell asleep.

At this moment, Zhao Chuan left the hut and flew into the air towards the Qunyu Pavilion.

At this moment, Ningguang stood in front of the balcony of Qunyu Pavilion, looking at the scenery below and silently reciting in her heart.

Hopefully this matter can be resolved quickly.

Just as she was lost in thought, she saw a point of light rushing towards her, prompting Ningguang, who was still in a daze, to react quickly.

Ningguang, dressed in a cheongsam, stood in front of the Qunyu Pavilion, her hands forming a mudra. A gentle breeze brushed through her hair, and countless golden square patterns condensed behind her, like arrows on a bowstring.

"Who goes there? Stop right there."

Ningguang shouted fiercely at the light.

This shout summoned the guards near Qunyu Pavilion.

"There is an external enemy; protect the emperor."

The guards gripped their spears tightly, but their eyes were resolute.

Seeing that the light showed no sign of leaving, Ning Guang lightly danced with her fingertips, and the array behind her suddenly activated. Countless golden stones shot out like sharp arrows, crashing directly towards the light.

"What, you even hit your husband?"

At that moment, the beam of light nimbly dodged Ningguang's attack, rushed over like lightning, and tightly embraced Ningguang's slender waist, saying something. The guards beside her were all Ningguang's trusted soldiers, and they had all seen Zhao Chuan before. Hearing these words, they were all dumbfounded.

"You... I hate you."

Ningguang blushed and buried her head in Zhao Chuan's arms. Her slender fingers, clad in black silk gloves, gently patted his chest as she softly scolded him.

"Alright, you may all leave. I have something to discuss with Lady Ningguang."

Zhao Chuan looked at the guards and then carried Ningguang back to the pavilion in a princess carry. He closed the door and put Ningguang down when he got to the study. He then sat down next to Ningguang and did not speak to her during this time.

"What's wrong? Why do you look so serious?"

Ningguang asked, puzzled.

"Hmm, is that so?"

Zhao Chuan took out a flask of wine from his storage ring, took a small sip, and his expression softened considerably.

"Well, sort of."

Ningguang rested her chin on her hand, crossed her legs, and said.

"Alright, I'll get straight to the point. Don't bother looking for anyone else about the monster attacking passersby. I'll handle it myself."

Zhao Chuan took another sip and said.

"This...this monster isn't so simple. Why don't we bring a few more people with us?"

Ningguang also became serious when she heard Zhao Chuan mention this matter.

"No, I'll handle it."

Zhao Chuan waved his hand and said.

“But I’m a little worried about you. This matter is important for the entire Liyue Harbor. Are you helping me like this just to please me? This is not a game.”

Ningguang clenched her fists, not daring to look Zhao Chuan in the eye, and gritted her teeth as she spoke.

"Flattery? No, no, no. I've said it before, this concerns Liyue Harbor. I'm not going there for you, but because I promised you that no one else can be sacrificed in Liyue Harbor. You know how dangerous this is."

Zhao Chuan stared at Ning Guang and then took a big gulp of wine.

"This……"

Seeing that Ningguang was still hesitant.

Zhao Chuan put down the wine jug, stood up, and strode towards Ning Guang. He stretched out a large hand and forcefully pushed her shoulder, causing Ning Guang to fall to the ground. Immediately afterward, Zhao Chuan swiftly grabbed Ning Guang's wrists with his other hand and pushed them above her head. At this moment, Ning Guang seemed to wake from a daze; her face flushed, she gazed shyly at Zhao Chuan.

"Zhao Chuan, calm down. Let me go first, and let's talk things out."

Ningguang's heart pounded faster and faster, her eyes revealing a hint of fear. Her hands were held tightly by Zhao Chuan, rendering her completely immobile. She was afraid that Zhao Chuan might do something to her, and her heart was filled with unease.

“Ningguang, I know you don’t like owing favors, but not everything can be solved with money. It’s settled then, I’ll handle it. The price is, protect yourself.”

Zhao Chuan's expression was solemn. He leaned close to her ear and whispered something. After speaking, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength and could no longer support himself. He collapsed into Ning Guang's arms and fell into a deep sleep.

"Zhao Chuan, thank you for considering my needs under these circumstances. It's not that I don't want you to go, but I saw you were badly injured before, and I don't know if you've fully recovered. If you act rashly before you're fully recovered... sigh, why make things so difficult for yourself?"

Ningguang lay weakly on the ground, her delicate arm gently embracing Zhao Chuan's body, while her other hand tenderly stroked his silky black hair, hesitant to speak. In the end, all her unspoken words turned into a soft sigh.

Thus, Ningguang withdrew the commission overnight and arranged for Gan Yu and Zhao Chuan to act together.
