Chen Luo knew that.

"Sigh, let's go, let's go." Chen Luo had already resigned himself to his fate.

After Chen Luo accompanied Lumine out of the bar, Lumine peeked out and swayed left and right before daring to come out, only daring to do so after confirming that no one seemed to be around.

"Judging from your posture, I don't quite believe you've completely shaken off your pursuers," Chen Luo said, squinting at Lumine.

"How could that be? I definitely shook off my pursuers, otherwise how would I have had time to summon the bar?" Lumine denied it outright.

It's not that Lumine can't summon the bar while being chased, but that she can't summon the bar in front of them, otherwise the bar would be known to others.

Lumine could tell that although Chen Luo quite patient with every customer, he did have principles for selecting customers.

One of the principles is to avoid bothering others.

Perhaps...

After all, the atmosphere is what matters most when running a bar.

If a bar is full of people who are annoying at first glance, or if someone suddenly barges in and starts yelling and nagging while you're drinking, it will definitely affect the bar's sales, which is something Chen Luo cannot tolerate.

That's why Chen Luo told others that it's fine if you want to bring people in, you're welcome, but don't look for people who can't distinguish between good and bad.

Of course, if you are ever unexpectedly hunted down, Chen Luo would welcome you to seek refuge in the bar, after all, life is only once.

"Alright, alright, stop looking. That expression of yours doesn't mean you're sure they didn't chase after us, but they definitely didn't," Chen Luo said, patting Lumine on the shoulder.

Lumine started looking around again, which shows that she does have doubts about whether she has shaken off Millelith.

After Chen Luo used his ability to observe the Fate Threads to confirm that Lumine would not have any fateful entanglements with the Millelith in the coming period, he began to comfort Lumine.

Chen Luo himself doesn't really like using the Precognitive Ability of the Fate Threads, especially on himself. It's not because spoilers are bad or anything like that, but mainly because observing other people's future is really exhausting.

It would be even more difficult to predict one's own future.

There are many factors that can influence a person's future.

It is definitely easier to predict the future of an ordinary person than to predict the future of a powerful person.

Lumine is different; there are just too many disruptive factors surrounding Lumine.

Chen Luo? There are even more disruptive factors surrounding Chen Luo.

The most obvious example is bars.

That being said, Chen Luo was aware that he might encounter some trouble in the future.

But it's much simpler to observe whether you'll have bad luck.

For example, when Chen Luo looked at the Childe just now, he could tell that the other party was definitely going to be in trouble.

Hmm, it might even be related to myself.

In comparison, observing someone else's past seems slightly easier.

Don't ask Chen Luo about the specific principles, because Chen Luo doesn't understand them either.

Just as Chen Luo said, Lumine did not find any Millelith suddenly appearing after carefully walking around, which made her feel much more relaxed.

With Shenhe leading the way, Chen Luo and Lumine successfully met the Moon Carver after traveling some distance into the Jueyun Karst.

Or perhaps the other party sensed Shenhe and thus took the initiative to appear.

So, having connections in Jueyun Karst makes things much easier.

"Shenhe, the killing intent and malevolent aura on your body have indeed diminished considerably, and several of the red ropes have been untied, yet you don't seem to be unable to withstand it. It seems your condition has improved a lot. Is the man next to you the one you mentioned who helped you?" The moment Moon Carver spoke, it was clear that he was an old acquaintance.

However, the Moon Carver and Shenhe were indeed very familiar with each other. After all, it was the Moon Carver divined for Shenhe that Shenhe He was destined to Solitary Star Calamity being.

Therefore, when Shenhe was later bound by the Crimson Rope Soul Binding Method, Moon Carver also contributed his efforts.

Although Shenhe is said to be a disciple of the Cloud Retainer, he has also received guidance from many other immortals. Among them is the Moon Carver.

"Yes, he is Chen Luo, whom I told you about. However, he is not here for these mundane matters, but because the Geo Archon was assassinated during the Seven Stars Immortal Conferment Ceremony." Shenhe nodded and said coldly.

Although Shenhe accompanied Chen Luo to learn a lot about how to handle interpersonal relationships during the Seven Stars Immortal Conferment Ceremony, Shenhe still spoke very bluntly.

"And the seven stars of Liyue think we, the people watching the ceremony, are very suspicious. They even issued arrest warrants for me and Ying." Xiao Paimon pointed to himself and then to Lumine.

Chen Luo did not refute this.

Chen Luo's task was naturally to tell the other immortals the story fairly and impartially, and what Xiao Paimon said was not a distortion of the facts.

Because the Liyue Qixing did indeed send people to investigate the onlookers, and Lumine didn't trust the Liyue Qixing, she tried to slip away, but was discovered.

Because of this incident, the possibility that Lumine is an assassin has been greatly amplified.

And then... poor Lumine was put on the wanted list.

Zhongli never dreamed that by faking his death, he could actually frame a Traveler as an assassin.

Ah, Lumine is so pitiful.

"How... how outrageous! The Liyue Qixing are truly disappointing! How could anyone attempt to assassinate the Emperor during the Rite of Descension! And after the Emperor was assassinated, how can the suspicion be shifted to the mortals who were attending the ceremony?"

The Moon Carver still looked quite angry.

After all, no matter what, this doesn't seem like something this blonde little girl would do.

Could she possibly defeat the Emperor?

As for the blame, it should naturally fall on the Liyue Qixing.

After all, this did happen during the Seven Stars Immortal Conferment Ceremony, so it's impossible to say that the Liyue Qixing bear no responsibility whatsoever.

Aside from the immortals residing in Jueyun Karst, only the Liyue Qixing are basically able to meet the Geo Archon.

Therefore, given what happened, Liyue Qixing is indeed a strong suspect.

"I have already made a judgment on this matter, but my decision may be wrong, and I still need to inform the immortals."

However, Moon Carver was quite rational.

"Well, True Lord, Shenhe and I have already informed the Demon Slayer Cloud Retainer. We have also arranged to meet the Demon Slayer at Cloud Retainer's cave," Chen Luo said.

"Hmm? That's excellent." Moon Carver paused for a moment, then nodded.

As the people rushed from outside Jueyun Karst into the area, Moon Carver initially thought they had just arrived from Liyue Harbor.

"And Lord Lishui, Shenhe, take them to Lord Lishui's cave. I'm Cloud Retainer's cave first." The dark brown deer, which was similar in color to the rocks, nodded and then suddenly flew away.

"Next, let's go find Plam Leaf. If we're quick, we can finish the search within half an hour," Chen Luo said after glancing at the sky.

"What? Is something urgent?" Lumine looked at Chen Luo with a puzzled expression.

"There's nothing urgent, but I need to go to the Fire Moth tomorrow. After all, I've been stalling Mobius for quite a while now, and if I don't go soon, she'll really get angry," Chen Luo said helplessly.

Chen Luo still holds the title of researcher in Mei Biu Si Laboratory, but Mobius is quite anxious about this because he hasn't been there for a long time.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that Chen Luo has quite a lot to do.

Heal Wendy's leg, get a job at Mei Biu Si Laboratory, and revive Kallen...

The first two, needless to say, need to be done as soon as possible; as for the last one...

Chen Luo still doesn't know how to revive Kallen.

Moreover, Chen Luo is unsure how to explain to Otto tonight that he really didn't mean to leave Kallen unattended.

There are many things to do, but there is only one Chen Luo, so Chen Luo really can't Unable to Split Oneself.

Well, Unable to Split Oneself...

Thinking of this, Chen Luo couldn't help but glance at the manual in his backpack that contained the technique of Astral Projection Immortal Technique.

In a sense, this thing is like a clone technique, right?

Chapter 333 Ying: The messenger of the Liyue Qixing is such a bad thing!

This time, the reward for Immortal Technique is not a skill, but a secret manual. Although Chen Luo cannot learn it immediately, it also means that anyone can use it, and it is not limited to one use.

However... to be honest, Chen Luo doesn't seem to have much use for this kind of thing.

Because Chen Luo can create puppets. Chen Luo is the Thousand-Man Herrscher. Things like Astral Projection are useless to Chen Luo.

Moreover, perhaps because he had read too many novels, Chen Luo had a feeling that "this clone wants to harm me" when it came to clones.

The puppets are different; the puppets completely obey Chen Luo's orders.

Hmm, Chen Luo may not necessarily use this Astral Projection, but since it's a randomly given reward, it must be pretty good and worth studying.

Maybe it can even be used on dolls...

"Let's go. I remember there was a teleportation point near Mt. Hulao," Chen Luo said as he pushed open the Bar Door.

Finding the Plam Leaf is very simple. Just use the Teleport Anchor to teleport to the nearest teleportation point to Mt. Hulao, and then click teleport.

It's worth mentioning that Chen Luo's Teleport Anchor was planted at the foot of the mountain, so Chen Luo and his group had to go up the mountain.

Fortunately, Chen Luo possessed the Heart of the Wind Element Gnosis and the Elemental Eye the Wind Element, so all he had to do was spread his Wind Glider and use the Wind Element to keep dragging upwards.

Do all users of the Wind Glider who possess the Vision the Wind Element have this ability to take off from the spot?

Thinking about it that way, wouldn't Amber be at a huge loss?

After reaching the mountain, Chen Luo and his companions encountered a man kneeling before a cave, repeatedly kowtowing and begging for forgiveness. It seemed his brother had been eaten by Amber or something...

According to him, he and his brother were simply unable to support their family, and after hearing that there were treasures hidden in the amber of Amber Mt. Hulao, they became confused and only wanted to find a few treasures in the Amber in the mountains, sell them, and then go back to support their family.

They went up the mountain road, and his brother was accidentally eaten by Amber.

Seeing that the other party was indeed not lying, Chen Luo directly gave him 100,000 Mora to help his family.

As for his brother?

Let's stay in the Amber for a while now.

Anyway, I won't die.

Chen Luo also earned 80 Primogem as an extra.

Indeed, only these pure desires can yield more Primogem.

After Shenhe brought out, he used a special method to summon the Plam Leaf. Upon hearing the news of the Emperor's assassination, the True Lord of Cloud and Wind was as shocked as the Cloud Retainer.

Fortunately, this Plam Leaf is different from Cloud Retainer; he is not as irritable and did not intend to suppress Liyue Harbor immediately.

Chen Luo also obtained some Walking Wasabi seeds.

[Walking Wasabi] is the Amber from Mt. Hulao. It looks like Amber it is actually a flower. After it grows, most of it is hidden underground. If it is stepped on, Amber will grow and envelop the intruder.

Chen Luo thought this thing would be quite fun to use for pranks.

[Ding! Mission complete]

"Phew, mission accomplished." Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief.

After notifying four immortals, Chen Luo completed the mission from Ningguang and the other Liyue Qixing, receiving 810 Primogem, a random reward, and 10 points of favorability.

But Chen Luo felt that Ningguang's 10 points of affection were actually useless, because Chen Luo didn't even have Ningguang as a friend.

That's why Chen Luo couldn't quite tell what discount Ningguang had received, but Chen Luo also felt that Ningguang didn't have anything worth buying.

"That can't be right, I haven't been exonerated yet, how could the mission be completed?" Lumine suddenly said.

Lumine remembered that she wrote on the Commission Cards that she wanted to find a fairy to help her get rid of her sins.

The immortals have all been found, but the exoneration is not yet complete.

The tasks issued through the Commission Cards are roughly like this, and the person issuing the task can roughly judge whether their task has been completed.

Because I wrote this task myself.

Of course, the mission objectives are written by himself, but Chen Luo changes the mission description.

Lumine wrote about finding a celestial being to remove the wanted notice from her body.

When it came to Chen Luo, a whole bunch of prefixes were added.

[Help the poor Lumine, who is wanted for running away and completely ignored by someone, to go to the Three-Eyed Five Manifestations Adepti to clear her name and remove her wanted poster.]

Don't underestimate the importance of these prefixes; they can reveal a lot of information.

"Well, there's something I've wanted to tell you for a while now." After seeing that the mission was complete and all the immortals had been found, Chen Luo pondered for a moment before speaking to Lumine.
