Under Ke Qing's guidance, Zhong Rui followed her to the largest materials market in Liyue Port.

Since the purchase of materials was left to Gan Yu, Zhong Rui came to the materials market in Liyue for the first time.

Because this is the second floor below the port, Zhong Rui really wouldn't have gotten here if Keqing hadn't led the way...

"Oh? Nata's fire-attribute metal? Looks like it's very suitable for alchemy, huh? There's even Inazuma's crystallized bone marrow! This merchant, how did you get through customs for something like crystallized bone marrow?"

Zhong Rui stood in front of a material store with a stall, and his eyes were soon attracted by the crystallized bone marrow with the power of the evil spirits.

How on earth do such dangerous items related to demons pass through customs?

"Huh? This little brother looks a little unfamiliar. What should I say? Will the crystallized bone marrow be unable to pass customs?"

When the store owner Zhidong Merchant heard Zhong Rui's words, he immediately looked at him curiously. At the same time, he also noticed Ke Qing standing next to Zhong Rui.

Um? ! When did this Yuhengxing come here? !

Why didn't he notice this distinguished guest just now? ?

Strange, could it be that he drank too much in Zhutianfang yesterday and his mind was confused?

"Can this thing pass customs?"

Zhong Rui subconsciously looked back at Ke Qing behind him. After receiving her affirmative look in reply, he was speechless about Liyue's list of contraband.

This fragment of demonic power and resentment can actually pass through customs openly...

What on earth is the Liyue General Affairs Department doing?

"Brother, you just said that crystallized bone marrow can't pass customs? Are you serious?"

Just when Zhong Rui was about to use illusion to fool the winter merchant in front of him, a handsome young man with dark blue hair stopped Zhong Rui.

"Ah you are..."

Zhong Rui looked at the young man who named him, and the somewhat familiar icy blue-haired young man next to him.

"Ah, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Xingqiu, and I am from Feiyun Chamber of Commerce."

Xingqiu introduced himself to Zhong Rui because recently he overheard that his father and Daozi, a businessman, made a deal about crystallized bone marrow.

Because when this kind of crystal is added to refining, it will greatly improve the strength and toughness of steel.

Because Qianyan Army plans to expand its army in the near future, the weapons created by adding crystallized bone marrow will definitely become best-selling products.

But my father's idea was probably to sell the weapons to Qianyan Jun at a low price, as a favor.

If the crystallized bone marrow is regarded as a prohibited item, Feiyun Chamber of Commerce may lose tens of millions of molas...

"Xingqiu? Then this is Chongyun next to you?"

"Eh? Do you know me?"

Chongyun was stunned for a moment when he heard Zhong Rui mentioning him.

Although his friendship with Xingqiu is not a secret, few people know about it...

Wait, why does this young man with white hair and golden eyes look so similar to the Emperor Tianrui described by Aunt Shen He? !

Could it be that they bumped into the emperor? !

Chapter 169 Hutao: So you are an immortal?

"My lord, you were so rude just now!"

In a corner rarely passed by, Xingqiu learned Zhong Rui's identity after being reminded by his friends and quickly apologized to him.

"Don't be nervous, just think of me as your peer. I'm actually younger than you think."

Zhong Rui asked Xingqiu to relax with a smile. They looked like they were the same age.

According to the body shape in the game, he is still a teenager now, and there is still some height gap between him and the adult body like Zhongli and Dadalia.

"Crystalized bone marrow is the crystallization of the power of the evil spirit, but it contains the resentment of the demon god Orobus. Although a small amount of crystallized bone marrow is unlikely to cause problems, it is still a dangerous item in nature."

Zhong Rui told Xingqiu this little-known news in Liyue. As for the Zhidong merchant, Zhong Rui had secretly erased his memory with Yu Duchen.

There is another secret that he did not tell Xingqiu, that is, crystallized bone marrow can actually be used as a material to make the evil eye.

"That's it. Thank you for informing me."

After Xingqiu learned the secret of crystallized bone marrow, he immediately understood why the emperor wanted to prohibit this kind of item from flowing into Liyue.

Originally, there were many demon gods suppressed in Liyue, and the resentment they left behind after their deaths often turned into demons and harmed the world.

And his best friend Chongyun comes from a family of exorcists and specializes in dealing with those monsters.

Chongyun's pure yang body is naturally extremely restrained against demons and monsters. Often, those demons will run away immediately after noticing his yang energy from a distance.

"No wonder I noticed a trace of demonic aura here. It turns out that's what it is..."

Chongyun said with a somewhat regretful expression. It was precisely because he sensed that breath that he brought Xingqiu here.

I thought that this time I would be able to show off my skills when meeting a demon who was not afraid of his pure Yang body, but I didn't expect that it turned out to be the evil thoughts left in the crystallized bone marrow.

But it’s okay if there are no monsters. After all, this is Liyue Port. Once a big monster appears, it will cause many casualties.

"If the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce has purchased the crystallized bone marrow in advance, the General Affairs Department can purchase it at 70% of the market price. The sale and purchase of such items will be strictly prohibited in the future."

Seeing Xingqiu frowning slightly, Zhong Rui said to him.

Crystallized bone marrow, as the crystallization of the evil spirit's power, naturally has some value, but just because of its danger, in Zhong Rui's eyes, it does more harm than good.

Of course, for Zhong Rui, who has the ability to purify, he can purify the evil spirits and resentments crystallized in the bone marrow and render them harmless.

You can also try these crystallized bone marrow to see if they can be used as materials for mass production of light punches.

The essence of a shallow attack is the aggregation of a large number of high-strength souls. However, in the world of Teyvat, Zhong Rui cannot find a large number of death souls to create a shallow attack.

Zhong Rui originally planned to use the demon god's remnant soul to create Qianda after purifying the demon god's remnants in Liyue. After all, those ancient demon god's remnants are also high-strength souls in a broad sense.

According to his calculations, Zhong Rui is at least 90% sure that he can mass-produce the shallow punch.

"Thank you very much, Emperor. I will tell my father when I get back."

Xingqiu said a little embarrassedly when he heard that the General Affairs Department was willing to purchase those crystallized bone marrow.

Could it be that the sadness on his face was so obvious that the emperor could see it?

But this can stop the loss of some molas. The emperor is indeed a good person!

At this time, Zhong Rui saw that Xingqiu's favorability towards him suddenly increased from 70 to 85, and subconsciously leaned towards Ke Qing beside him.

Although Xingqiu is a cute boy, Zhongrui only likes beautiful girls!

"Oh, by the way, we won't waste your time anymore. I'm sorry to cause you any trouble."

"It's okay, but are you free next? If you have time, I want to show you something interesting."

Seeing Xingqiu and Chongyun preparing to leave, Zhong Rui persuaded them to stay and prepared to establish communication with them.

Not only because of their family background and divine eyes, but also because their age is considered to be within the school's enrollment age.

When the school recruits students, they might be able to recruit these two people...

"With the invitation from the Emperor, we are naturally free!"

"Call me Zhong Rui, and I'll ask you to help me get some materials later~"

Zhong Rui said with a sinister smile.

Soon after, the excited smiles on Chongyun and Xingqiu's faces at being invited by the emperor gradually disappeared.

The two of them were carrying a pile of alchemy materials, and these materials were all metal and very heavy. However, due to the majesty of the emperor, they could not refuse.

Later, when they saw Zhong Rui buying a pile of thirty-meter-long wooden boards, they finally couldn't help but express that they couldn't do it.

Then they saw Zhong Rui's space storage ability, and then they realized that they had probably been tricked by Zhong Rui.

"Okay, don't look at me with such resentful eyes. Later you will know that the hard work now is worth it."

After Zhong Rui used Yu Duchen to confuse the perceptions of the people around him, he took Xingqiu and the others to the wilds of Liyue.

However, Zhong Rui, who had just walked out of the space portal, met the eyes of the girl in front of him who stretched her hand towards his abdomen in the next second.

"Huh? Zhong Rui?!"

"Hall Master Hu, long time no see, what a coincidence..."

Zhong Rui looked at Hu Tao in front of him and smiled stiffly at her.

As I said before, like Zhongli, he is very bad at dealing with Hu Tao...

The wild place he randomly moved to happened to meet Hu Tao?

"Well, I didn't expect you to have abdominal muscles, which really surprised me..."

"Uh... Hall Master Hu, why are you here?"

Zhong Rui took a step back and saw the raspberries at his feet. It turned out that Hutao had just stretched out his hand to pick raspberries...

"Me? I've been a little bored recently, so I went out with Xiang Ling for a walk, and learned her crafts by the way. Do you know about the Pokémon called Round Shark that appeared next to Zhong Li recently? I'm going to learn some crafts for it. Let’s eat! Then we’ll see if you can give me one after it gives birth.”

While talking, Hu Tao thought of the round land shark following Zhongli, and suddenly felt a little itchy.

Zhongli told her that it was hatched from an egg he accidentally bought, which made her go to the wet market and seafood market for several days, but she never saw an egg that looked like a round land shark.

"I see..."

Zhong Rui quietly looked at Hutao and felt that Hutao was more suitable for ghost-type and fire-type Pokémon than Round Shark...

Although Hu Tao has now inherited the Rebirth Hall, she is still considered to be a student in terms of age, so there may be opportunities to recruit her.

No, as expected, Walnut should forget it...

"Hey? Aren't these Xingqiu and Chongyun? Keqing is also here! Speaking of which, Zhong Rui, why did you suddenly appear here just now? Did you use immortal magic? Good guy, you turned out to be an immortal. !”

Seeing Xingqiu and others following Zhong Rui, Hu Tao finally reacted and began to circle around Zhong Rui curiously, looking at him carefully.

"Hmm... they look similar to humans, Zhong Rui. I heard that most Liyue Immortals have animal forms. What is your true form? As a good friend, I will definitely provide you with customized services!"

"...There are also humanoid existences among immortals, such as the Yaksha clan. Although I am not a Yaksha, this is my true body. But Hall Master Hu, how can you be so sure that you will live longer than me?"

After listening to Hu Tao's words, Zhong Rui understood that this was Hu Tao's intention. He was not angry at all, but felt a little speechless.

If it were anyone else, he would probably think that Hu Tao was cursing him to die early...

"That's right. It's okay. I'll make the coffin for you in advance and pass it on from generation to generation. It will be useful one day!"

Xingqiu and Chongyun listened to the chat between Hu Tao and Zhong Rui, and looked at Hu Tao several times with a hesitant expression.

How much they wanted to remind Hu Tao that Zhong Rui was Tian Rui Emperor.

But as Hu Tao brought the topic to the coffin, it was hard for them to speak anymore...

"Ahem, please don't say such unlucky words yet."

Ke Qing also knew Hu Tao's character, so she was not angry. At most, she glared at her with some dissatisfaction.

After all, Hu Tao once promoted business to the General Affairs Department, and it was she and Hu Tao who had the communication...

"Okay, okay, it's really not the right place to talk about this."

When Hutao saw what Keqing had said, she did not continue. She just hinted to Zhong Rui with her eyes that the two of them would continue talking in private after returning to Liyue Port.

And Zhong Rui silently looked away. At this moment, he hoped that he couldn't understand the hint in Hu Tao's eyes...

Chapter Paimon: What are you looking at! Can’t you be afraid of heights if you can fly?!

"Is this... a ship?"

Hu Tao curiously looked at the completed airship. When building it, Zhong Rui didn't tell them what it was. He only said that it was a vehicle and that he would take them to play with it after it was built.

She, Xingqiu and the others stood there, watching Zhong Rui use his space ability to build the materials and parts in an instant, and then realized that it was a ship.

"Zhong Rui, it's still a long way from Yaoguang Beach. Do you plan to use the same magic to take us there?"

"Sea? Although it can also go into the sea, it is somewhat overqualified compared to its real function. Anyway, you guys come up first."

Hu Tao curiously followed Zhong Rui onto the deck of the airship. Xingqiu and Chongyun also followed. Ke Qing even entered the ship's cabin early to confirm the internal capacity.

Zhong Rui came to the rudder, then placed his hand on a strange depression next to the rudder, and poured some of his divine power into it.

The alchemy circle carved inside the airship began to take effect and gradually floated away from the ground.
