Zero Zone: Start as Morax

Facing Keqing's question.

Ningguang smiled and said: "The Emperor once told me in a dream that he was not really dead, and that he had handed over the future of Liyue to us humans..."

Hearing this news.

Keqing was surprised at first, she didn't expect that the Emperor was still alive.

Then she was a little frustrated. Such a big thing, the Emperor actually told Ningguang in a dream, but didn't tell Keqing.

Seeing this.

Ningguang smiled slightly and said: "Of course it's not just me, the Emperor also dreamed of the other seven stars."

Hearing this.

Keqing finally couldn't help but say: "Why don't I know? Did the Emperor only dream of you?"

Ningguang thought for a while and said: "I remember, if I remember correctly, you were working overtime to organize the information for the expansion of Liyue Port that day..."

Because it has been three years, even Ningguang can't remember it clearly.

However.

Hearing Ningguang say this, Keqing suddenly recalled.

It was true. At that time, we were planning to expand Liyue. We were busy until midnight every day, and even lived in Yujingtai at night.

Thinking of this.

Keqing took a deep breath and said, "Since you knew it a long time ago, why didn't you tell me?"

Ningguang sighed, "Because the emperor said that you should not tell anyone about his life."

Keqing frowned slightly, "Then you are now..."

Ningguang said helplessly, "The situation is different now. For this cooperation, I must say it."

However.

Ningguang did not say that the emperor was faking his death, but said that there was another god in Liyue.

Then.

Ningguang sighed again, "Now that I tell you the truth, maybe the emperor will blame me in my dreams at night..."

Keqing was speechless: "..."

The emperor is broad-minded, of course he will not blame others for such a small matter.

And Ningguang had to say it for Liyue.

Silence for a moment.

Keqing took a deep breath and said, "Since Lord Emperor is still alive, do you know where he is now?"

If Lord Emperor can be found.

Then it will be easier to suppress Void Zero.

Ningguang said slowly: "Lord Emperor, like all the immortals, has transformed into a mortal and integrated into the lives of the people of Liyue..."

Hearing this.

Keqing asked again: "Do you know who Lord Emperor's incarnation is?"

Ningguang shook his head: "Of course I don't know, I can't even distinguish the incarnations of those immortals, let alone the incarnation of Lord Emperor."

However.

In the past few years, Ningguang has also had some clues and locked on several living Liyue people.

For example, a businessman with great luck has made a fortune repeatedly in recent years...

For example, the owner of a certain inn, who treats people kindly...

For example, a guest official of the Hall of Rebirth, who has an extraordinary temperament and is familiar with ancient and modern times...

But these are all guesses.

Ningguang couldn't tell which one the emperor's incarnation was, so she didn't tell Keqing about these guesses.

On the side.

Keqing sighed: "Emperor... why did you do this?"

Ningguang smiled and said: "The emperor must have a deep meaning for doing this."

Keqing: "..."

After learning that the emperor was still alive, Keqing seemed to have unloaded a certain burden and became much more relaxed.

Since the death of the emperor.

Because there is no blessing from the gods, if you want to maintain Liyue's current status in the continent of Teyvat, you have to rely on Keqing and the other seven stars of Liyue to support it.

And Keqing lived up to expectations, and together with Ningguang and the other seven stars, she carried the burden of Liyue.

Standing on the Jade Pavilion and looking into the distance.

For a long time.

Keqing said slowly: "Will the Emperor know about this cooperation?"

Ningguang smiled and said: "The Emperor has only retired from the position of Rock God, but he has not lost his power. He must be protecting Liyue from behind. He will be the first to know anything that happens in Liyue."

Yes.

Even if the Emperor retired from the position of Rock God, he must be protecting Liyue from behind.

Knowing this.

Although Keqing was very happy, she still remained calm in front of Ningguang.

After a while.

She said goodbye to Ningguang and left the Jade Pavilion alone.

Just teleported down from the Jade Pavilion.

Keqing laughed unconsciously.

On the side.

The staff in charge of the teleportation also smiled and said: "Lord Keqing, you are very happy to chat with Lord Ningguang?"

Keqing quickly restrained her smile, coughed lightly and said: "Hmm..."

After a perfunctory sound.

Keqing left in a hurry.

Walking on the street, Keqing was still thinking about the fact that the Emperor was still alive. She didn't expect that the Emperor was actuallyIt was a fake death, even Keqing was deceived...

I regret it so much——

If I hadn't worked overtime at that time, I would have received the dream from the emperor.

I regret it so much...I missed such an important thing.

Thinking of this.

Keqing regretted, was happy, and sighed...

Even when the traveler and Paimon came to her, she didn't notice.

On the side.

Paimon saw Keqing walking alone on the street, sighing and happy, and asked in confusion: "Keqing, we meet again."

Keqing didn't seem to hear it.

Seeing this.

Paimon and the traveler looked at each other and felt that Keqing was a little strange now.

Paimon flew closer again and shouted: "Keqing, we meet again."

This time he finally heard it.

Keqing reacted and was shocked: "Ah? Paimeng? It's you... Traveler, Paimeng, when did you come?"

The traveler said helplessly: "I came a long time ago."

Paimeng spread his hands helplessly: "We saw you from afar and came to greet you, but you didn't respond... What were you thinking about just now? So absorbed?"

Keqing subconsciously said: "I was thinking about the emperor..."

After reacting, Keqing stopped immediately.

Almost let it slip.

Paimeng was puzzled: "What are you thinking about the emperor?"

Keqing quickly changed her words and said: "I suddenly remembered that it will be the death anniversary of the emperor in a few days... I want to commemorate the emperor first, and then lead the immortals to New Eridu..."

Although it is known that the emperor is still alive.

But in name, the emperor is dead, and the anniversary activities must not be cancelled.

Hearing this.

Paimeng also breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought Keqing already knew that Zhongli or Suli was the Geo King.

On the side.

The traveler nodded solemnly and said, "Well, if you calculate the time, it is indeed almost the anniversary of the death of the old man. At that time, call the immortals and the people of New Elidu to participate. As for other matters, leave it to the Hall of Rebirth. Just like before, let Suli host the anniversary activities. He is a professional."

Hearing this.

Keqing nodded seriously: "Well, let's do it as you say."

Paimon was very helpless and sighed deeply: "..."

Keqing wondered: "What's wrong, Paimon?"

Paimon sighed and said, "I think the emperor must be very happy to hold a grand anniversary event for the emperor."
