Chapter 172 Conversation with Ningguang (two in one)
Youra also realized something, so before Ningguang answered her question, she said, "Is there someone in Wangshu Inn?"
Before heading to Cuijuepo, she and Lin Yan had only been to Shimen and Wangshu Inn. Excluding the possibility that Ningguang has been paying attention to them since the beginning of Shimen, the only thing is Wangshu Inn.
"In fact, the entire Wangshu Inn is my person." Ning Guang's answer was expected by Lin Yan, but Youla was very surprised by this. "Because many foreigners have come to Liyue recently to confirm whether the assassination of the Emperor was true, so I specially arranged personnel at Wangshu Inn to find someone who had a ill-intentioned intention to Liyue."
"In addition, I have sent someone to move the treasures you left in Cuijuepo to Liyuegang. Since you already know this, I will send someone to your home later."
This sentence was a bit beyond Lin Yan's expectations, but it was nothing strange to think about it. They left so much treasure in Cuijuepo. Since Ningguang sent someone to follow them, he would definitely know about it. Who would leave a lot of treasures without caring about it? If it weren't for the conditions at that time, Lin Yan would have wanted to take all the treasures away.
"No need, those treasures are masterless things. Since you have obtained them, please stay." Although Ningguang said he wanted to return the treasures to him, Lin Yan agreed without hesitation.
As a businessman, Ningguang valued Mora the most. He gave so many Mora to himself for free, and he knew it was a test of his polite words.
"Since that's the case, I'd rather be respectful than obedient." Seeing Lin Yan's rejection, Ning Guang no longer wanted to return the treasures to him, and he didn't know whether she really wanted to return them or just act.
But no matter which one it is, Lin Yan just needs to refuse her. After all, this can be regarded as making her owe her a favor. If you have any help in the future, you can ask her for help.
"Two, it's very windy outside, let's talk inside."
After all the polite words were said to each other, Ningguang brought the two to the inside of Qunyu Pavilion.
When he came to Qunyu Pavilion, Lin Yan found that this place was completely different from what he imagined.
Obviously, from the outside, this is just a very ordinary attic, but the decorations inside are as luxurious as royal aristocrats. If you put something in the shops in Liyuegang, they are all treasures worth a thousand gold, and you will almost put gold on the walls.
"People, please sit down." Hearing the two of them to a room, Ningguang sent someone to bring tea.
"We have finished talking about the extra words, so I'll just get into the topic. I guess you should be very confused. Why should I invite you to Qunyu Pavilion? In fact, in addition to meeting another [Saving Mond Hero], I also want to ask you for something."
It is not difficult to hear from Ning Guang's words that she had already seen Ying and the others before she met Lin Yan.
"But it's okay." Lin Yan took a sip of the tea in his hand, and then signaled that Ningguang could speak. After all, if you ask someone else for help, you must first get the other party's consent before you can speak. At least in the eyes of extremely skilled businessmen like Ningguang.
"I guess the two of you already knew that in the [See Immortal Dictation], the assassination of Emperor Yanwang, our Liyue Qixing, as witnesses at that time, chose to hide the Emperor's body afterwards. However, the consequences of doing so made us feel very troubled."
"First of all, the fools, they were preparing various small actions long before the [See the Immortal Dictation] began. Although we had noticed it, there was no conclusive evidence to accuse them. After the Emperor's death, the fools even secretly took advantage of the Emperor's death and had too many secret actions beyond the bottom line of diplomacy in secret."
"As the [Tianquan] responsible for Liyue, I don't care about my graceful attitude when confronting me. So we approved the preparation of [Self-Dict Yi] and provided a ceremony venue, so that we can take over Liyue in full to confuse the fools and gain some buffering time."
"In fact, in addition to the fools, there is another group that makes us feel even more troublesome, that is, the immortals living in seclusion in the clouds. They do not believe in the fall of the Emperor and insist on handing over the body of the Emperor. Of course, we repeatedly refused, but they did not accept it, and even... they already had the idea of coming to Liyuegang to raise an army to question the crime."
"So...I want to ask you for your business, when the immortals come to Liyuegang to raise troops and ask for punishment, you can resist them for us, if you really want to use force at that time."
Lin Yan understood that Ning Guang wanted to deal with the immortals in Jue Yunjian by himself.
She has been paying attention to Lin Yan, and the Wuwangpo incident is probably because she deliberately asked Lin Yan to go there in order to test his ability, otherwise why was he invited to Qunyu Pavilion the next day after he came back?
However, Lin Yan was very curious. Ying had already met her, but why didn’t she ask Ying to help Qixing resist the immortals?
Perhaps because Ying had already had contact with the immortals, Ningguang was afraid that she would stand on the immortals' side, so he asked her to view the incident as a neutral person instead of pulling her over.
As for Lin Yan, he had no contact with the immortal, so Ning Guang chose to win him over and ask him to help stop the immortal in Jue Yunjian. If he did not agree, she would also ask him to maintain his identity as a neutral. Anyway, no matter what, Qixing would not suffer any loss.
But Lin Yan has his own opinion on this.
"I am not unable to agree to your request, but in my opinion, you should be able to handle the assassination of the Rock King Emperor."
"The purpose of the fools is to obtain the divine power of the Rock King Emperor, but the Rock King Emperor died, and you hid His body again. It would be strange if they didn't make any big moves. In fact, in their opinion, the Rock King Emperor was not really dead. For this reason, they even chose to use extreme methods to lure him out."
"I guess you already know that the fools are mass-producing the 100-Notification Talisman. Although I don't know what they are going to do, it is certain that they want to use the 100-Notification Talisman to attract the Emperor of Rock King. However, this way of attracting Him may cause a disaster similar to Mond to happen to Liyue."
"So you can hand over the body of the Rock King Emperor to the immortals in Jueyun. In this way, although they will think that your Seven Stars are useless, at least they will rule out the suspicion of [Seven Stars Ushering the Throne]. And I'm sure they will definitely not be able to investigate anything useful."
"As for the fools, although they are in trouble, the body of the Rock King Emperor is not in your hands. They will definitely not have the idea of making things difficult for you anymore, but will turn their targets to the immortals."
"Let the fools fight against the immortals, just watch as a third party. If necessary, extend a helping hand to the immortals to express your loyalty to the Rock King Emperor. Isn't the problem solved?"
"But according to what you said, the fools can't even deal with our seven stars, so how can they deal with the immortals?" Ning Guang asked Lin Yan's point of view.
In fact, at the beginning, the immortals had nothing to do with the Rock King Emperor. However, after He established Liyue Port, the immortals living deep in the mountains signed a contract and protected Liyue Port together.
During the War of Demon Gods, the immortals also made considerable contributions and made great contributions to the unification of Liyue's territory. It can be said that if there were no immortals, the Rock King Emperor might not have been able to become the Rock God so smoothly.
Therefore, the immortals have more powerful power than ordinary people, or even ordinary holders of the Eye of God, so that they are enough to compete with the eleven executives of the fools, so it is not easy to get the body of the Rock King Emperor from them.
"If you can't deal with the immortals and the Emperor really hasn't passed away as you guessed, won't they use the same method to create disasters and lure the Emperor to appear?"
Ningguang is right. If the fools find that they can't deal with the immortals, they will use the same method to create disasters and lure the Rock King Emperor to appear.
"So disaster is inevitable," Lin Yan said, "The thing you should do most now is not to fight the fools or be prepared to deal with immortals at all times. Instead, to be in the same camp as the immortals, even if they have any doubts about you, they should make them feel that your seven stars are on the same front as them."
"In this way, even if you are not in harmony now, when the disaster occurs, you can join forces to deal with it. Otherwise, do you think that the upcoming disaster can be resisted by the Seven Stars and the Thousand Rock Army? The disaster in Mond also originated from the fools. You should know what the degree of loss will be in the end."
Lin Yan's words made Ning Guang silent. She originally planned to win over Lin Yan, and when necessary, she took action to stop the immortals coming from Jueyun. Unexpectedly, she actually asked him to scold him now.
But if you think about it carefully, Lin Yan is not wrong. If a disaster of the same scale as Mond will really occur, it will be difficult to resist with their seven-star abilities. The immortals have all had the experience of fighting with the demon gods. If they have their help, the overall strength to resist the disaster will be greatly enhanced.
But the question now is when will the plan of the fools be implemented? If the immortals can't hold back and come to Liyue Port to start a military conviction, it will be troublesome. Even the fools are smarter and implement the plan when both sides fight to lose money, then Liyue will be trapped in the quagmire of despair.
At that time, it may really need the Rock King Emperor to appear, but if the Rock King Emperor really fell on the [See the Immortal Dictation], then Li Yue's history may have stopped here.
In fact, Ningguang had no intention of turning against the immortals at the beginning, but they did not, which does not mean that the immortals did not. The immortals were loyal to the Rock King Emperor, and with the solid thinking, they would never give up if they did not see the hidden body of the Rock King Emperor Emperor. Ningguang was very clear about this.
So now we can only wait until the immortals come to Liyuegang to raise an army to question the crime and then implement the delay plan. As long as it can be delayed, as long as it can be delayed, they can join forces with the immortals to fight the enemy.
She would not order all the fools in Liyue Port to be arrested because she had no reason, and even if there was, she would not be able to arrest all the fools in Liyue Port.
Because she knew that there was an executive in the territory of Liyue, and she knew that the executives of the fools all had the gift of the god of ice and were far stronger than ordinary humans like them. If she ordered all the members of the fools to be arrested, the other party might be anxious and would implement the plan in advance before the immortals arrived.
Judging from the current situation, her best way is to watch the changes and always pay attention to the movements of fools and immortals. Once there is turmoil, she will decide whether to take action based on the situation at that time.
"So that's it. Your words really made me realize." Ning Guang said after a long silence. "Since that's the case, I will take back my previous request. Now I want to ask you, if a disaster really happens as you said, I hope you can help us resist it together."
"Of course." Lin Yan agreed without thinking. This was his initial plan. Now he promised that Ning Guang could still owe him a favor, so why not do it?
"However, I also have something I want to ask Lord Ningguang."
As he said that, Lin Yan took out the shrinking Xiaobai from his pocket and put it in front of Ning Guang.
Seeing that he could finally come out to breathe, Xiaobai immediately squirmed his body, returning the appearance to its original size, and looked around with curiosity.
Finally, its eyes fell on Ningguang, and both sides looked at each other in confusion for a few seconds.
In fact, the moment she saw Xiaobai, Ning Guang's first reaction was to destroy the other party, but she quickly gave up the idea because she knew that Lin Yan had a slime pet and that idea was just a conditioned reflex after destroying too many monsters.
"Mr. Ningguang should know that I have a slime pet. It will not hurt people, and will not fight back even if it is attacked by others. But because it is a monster, it is not convenient for me to take it on the street."
"So I want to ask you to ask the General Affairs Department to issue an announcement, that is, to allow me to take it on the streets of Liyue Port."
After discovering that Xiaobai really couldn't attack people, Ning Guang poked his head with his hand with interest, looking at it... it seemed as if he wanted to buy Xiaobai back.
"Of course I can agree to your request." Ningguang said, "According to Liyue's law, as long as it is a creature that does not attack humans, it can be taken to the street as a pet, so I immediately asked someone to inform the General Affairs Department and let them issue an announcement that allows you to take it on the street."
"Then I thank Lord Ningguang." Seeing that Ningguang agreed, Lin Yan immediately stood up from his seat, "If nothing happened, then we both left first. We originally planned to go out for a day of relaxation today, but we were invited by you to Qunyu Pavilion to narrate. If we don't hurry back, it will be too late."
Hearing this, Ningguang also stood up from his seat and said, "So that's the case. Since that's the case, then you can go back quickly, but don't delay."
After saying that, the three of them left the room. Ningguang sent Lin Yan and Youla outside the Qunyu Pavilion, and watched them leave, then turned around and returned to the Qunyu Pavilion.
