Original God: Using a vest knife to make players and game characters cry

But it's okay, her sister will help him get revenge.

So, I'd better not cause him any trouble for now.

"Because I know Ruola, I trust her judgment. You are not the murderers, and you have nothing to do with this matter."

Upon hearing this, Ying and Paimeng were both delighted, as it meant they no longer needed to plot with the young master to clear their names.

D'Artagnan, standing nearby, was getting a little anxious, but before he could, Mu Qingge continued:

"Although I believe you, your behavior at the ceremony is suspicious. Furthermore, with the Emperor's passing, the person behind it may be difficult to deal with. Although I am confident, I am still powerless to confront this person. I would like to ask you to go to Jueyun Realm for me and seek out the immortal."

"Of course, as an adventurer, I know the rules, and I will give you the corresponding reward."

Ying looked completely bewildered.

How come they were just opposing forces a moment ago, and now they have to go find some immortal on their own?

She was exhausted from the journey and hadn't had a proper night's sleep yet.

However, since it was Mu Qingge who suggested it, she would reluctantly agree.

Who could blame her for being such a beautiful female general, and who could blame her for being Nora's good friend?

"Since you are Nora's friend, you are also my friend. There's no need to worry about it."

Mu Qingge nodded gently.

As expected, Yingbao and Paimon are still very much in love.

Chapter 22 A Group of People I Was Destined to Sorry For

"So, in that case, we're going to have to go find the immortals, but we have no idea where they are, and what if they don't see us?"

Paimon stroked his chin and voiced his concerns.

"Don't worry, I know Gan Yu very well, and I've had the honor of meeting True Monarch Liu Yunjianfeng a few times. I have a map here, and I can mark the location for you."

Mu Qingge took out a map and began marking it. After marking it, she handed it to Ying and then took out a feather.

"Take this and the True Lord will come out to see you."

D'Artagnan silently put the Unrestricted Talisman back in his hand.

"After I return, the Qianyan Army will drop the investigation on the two of them. Thank you for your help."

Paimon put his hands on his hips, raised his head, and said, "Don't worry, we'll definitely complete the mission!"

Although there was a small misunderstanding at the beginning, Paimon has now regained his trust in Mu Qingge.

First impressions are very important. Paimon thought that someone who could become good friends with someone like Nora couldn't possibly be a bad person.

"Well, in that case, I have something very important to attend to, so please excuse me."

Mu Qingge looked somewhat downcast, clearly still reeling from the Emperor's passing.

After walking for a while, Mu Qingge turned back and reminded her:

"The Fools are not to be trusted. Although I have not caught them red-handed, I am certain that they are plotting something. You should be extra careful if you are with them."

Ying nodded to indicate that she understood.

Tadalia looked at Mu Qingge speechlessly:

"No way, girl, I'm still here!"

"Hmph, you know in your heart whether I'm right or not. I said before that once I find out the truth, even if you are the Winter Ambassador, the Seven Stars will not let you off easily."

After Mu Qingge left, Dadalia looked at Ying and Paimon, and seeing that they had regained their previous wariness, he felt quite helpless.

"Gentlemen, although the current situation is somewhat awkward, I would still like to invite you to the Northern Bank for a meeting. I will tell you everything I know there, and I will respect whatever decision you make afterwards. What do you say?"

"I see you two are a bit tired. I've prepared a meal at the Northern Bank. Even if you're going to search for immortals, you still need to eat, right?"

Ying and Paimon exchanged a glance, and finally nodded.

Go listen to what this guy has to say; there's no harm in it.

······

Upon returning to her work residence, Mu Qingge immediately withdrew the arrest warrants for Ying and Paimeng. After arranging internal affairs for the Qianyan Army, she went to see Ningguang.

By this time, it was already dark, and the Emperor's body had been secretly moved to the Golden House, where Ningguang and Keqing were.

Keqing's expression darkened as she looked at the Emperor's dragon form: "Though I yearn for human governance in Liyue, I do not wish for it to come about this way, Your Majesty..."

Ningguang saw Mu Qingge approaching and nodded slightly to her.

"You came."

"Ah."

Mu Qingge approached the Emperor's dragon body, seemingly wanting to reach out and touch it, but in the end she did not.

"Why did you bring the Emperor's body here?"

Ningguang sighed: "The passing of the Emperor is a major event, far beyond what we could have predicted. The people are in a state of panic, and those behind the scenes are also stirring. In these turbulent times, we should focus on stabilizing public sentiment, apprehending the real culprit, and giving the people an explanation."

Mu Qingge disagreed: "Tradition cannot be changed. With the Emperor's passing, the ceremony for sending him off should be the first priority."

Ningguang shakes her head:

"The person behind the scenes has not yet revealed themselves. Things are far more complicated than you imagine. Hiding the Emperor's body was a last resort. The people are not yet truly convinced of the Emperor's demise, and it will take time for the news to spread. The situation is still under control..."

After listening to Ningguang's explanation, Mu Qingge nodded gently:

“I understand, but I don’t agree with it. Our current actions seem suspicious to outsiders. If the immortals come to inquire, how will we explain it?”

"Since it has already happened, there's no need to hide anything. The public isn't that fragile..."

Mu Qingge suddenly stopped talking.

Ningguang and Keqing were listening carefully to her words, and when she stopped talking, they looked at her in confusion.

"what happened?"

Mu Qingge frowned as she carefully examined the ancestral remains.

After a moment, she asked:

What is the current situation at Yujingtai?

"It has been fully restored."

Mu Qingge pondered for a long time, then finally looked at Ningguang:

"Let's do as you say. I'll handle the Emperor's send-off ceremony. Don't worry, it won't cause too much of a commotion. We'll hold a grand send-off ceremony after everything is over."

Even Mu Qingge said so, so Ningguang had no objection.

She had previously worried that Mu Qingge would disagree with them, after all, her fanaticism for the Emperor was well-known in Liyue, and the other party held military power.

This outcome is for the best, and it's entirely beneficial for her future plans.

"If you need any help, just send someone to me. If I'm not here, find Fengyan."

······

It was already past midnight when we left the Golden House.

She realized that the Rock King Emperor was not dead at all!

Ancient texts tell us that when a demon god falls, even the weakest one, a forbidden zone will form around it, where no living being can survive.

The Emperor is so powerful, and he is also one of the strongest authorities, the authority of the Geo element. How could his fall have had no impact whatsoever?!

She was confused before, and besides, she knew very little about demons and gods; she had only learned about them by chance.

Now that she knew the Emperor was not dead, Mu Qingge roughly understood his thoughts by following the clues.

(The above describes Mu Qingge's outward demeanor, which can also be seen as: acting.)

As for personally handling the ceremony of sending off the immortals, besides getting more screen time by blending into the main characters, it can also improve the Emperor's favor!

Furthermore, although the Emperor's passing was not a true passing, the scale of the event was still quite impressive...

Liyue traditions must not be abandoned!

Since I've decided to organize the Immortal Sending Ceremony myself, the items needed for it must be the best!

Coincidentally, she had a hobby of collecting the finest stones, and she had a piece of the finest night-blooming jasmine at home.

No piece of night-blooming jasmine circulating in the market can match the quality of the one she has in her collection.

It took quite a bit of time to get home from the Golden House.

Mu Qingge's family lived in an ordinary house in the east of Liyue Harbor. Besides her, there was also a younger sister, making a total of four people in the family.

My younger sister's name is Mu Qingxu. She is three years younger than me and is fourteen years old this year.

I don't know if it's because of her, but this little sister, who originally had no role in the game, also got the Eye of God.

It's still the Water-type God's Eye.

Both of Mu's daughters possess the Eye of God, making them the envy of everyone in Liyue Harbor.

When she was very young, her younger sister always liked to follow her around. As she grew older, she had more and more things to do and became busier and busier, so she had less and less time to spend with her sister.

The two sisters have always had a good relationship, and Mu Qingxu has always regarded her older sister as the goal she should strive to catch up with in this life.

Mu Qingge's feelings towards these family members are very complicated.

She loved them, but the relationship was destined to be fraught with difficulties from the very beginning.

According to the plan, none of these pseudonyms of hers will end up in a good place.

As these alternate identities slowly grew up on the continent of Teyvat, Mu Qingge thought about giving up the plan more than once. Her sister from the original world was her family, but wasn't the one from this world also family?

However, Mu Qingge ultimately decided to proceed according to plan.

Because the system gave her a promise that the final outcome would be beautiful.

The process may be tough, but the ending will definitely be beautiful!

However, they will all inevitably experience the pain of losing a loved one; there's no way around it. They are a group of people that Jiang Mumu is destined to let down.

That's why all seven accounts will try their best to make it up to them before the results are in.

The seven individuals may occasionally be a little cold-hearted to outsiders, but without exception, they are extremely loving and filial to their relatives.

Chapter 23 ultimately returns to the main storyline.

When Mu Qingge arrived at her doorstep, she was surprised to find that the lights were still on inside.

Normally, my family would have already gone to bed by this time. Even before I was selected as the Kaiyang Star, my parents would get up in an hour or two to prepare things and go out to sell early.

I gently pushed the door open, and as usual, it wasn't locked.

Mu Qingge didn't look at the room where the lights were still on. Instead, she used her key to open the door, entered her room, and fumbled for a box on the shelf at the foot of the bed.

Upon opening the box, one finds a stone wrapped in cloth, emitting a faint glow through the fabric.

If you tear off the cloth, the area illuminated by this nephrite stone will be much larger.

After checking and confirming that there was no damage, Mu Qingge wrapped it again in cloth and put it back into the box.

Turning around, Mu Qingge froze, somewhat surprised:

"Still not asleep?"

"Sis, you weren't asleep either, were you?"

Standing in front of Mu Qingge's room was none other than her younger sister, Mu Qingxu.

"Go to rest early."

Mu Qingge gently patted her younger sister's head.

"Sister, the Emperor... he's really..."

"No one lives forever. Even the Emperor himself will eventually pass away. For over 3,700 years, Liyue has been under the Emperor's protection. Now, it's time for her to grow up."

Mu Qingge did not choose to tell her sister the truth; this was the Emperor's plan, and she should comply.

Although she had been mentally prepared, Mu Qingxu still felt a heart-wrenching pain when she actually heard it from her sister.
