Making the People of Liyue Force Bai Ye to Become Lord of Guili Plains
Zhongli slowly walked over, followed by Xiao.
Just then, Yaoyao came over carrying a vat of water. Seeing Zhongli, and then looking at the vat of water she had just brought, she immediately shook her head and prepared to fetch another one.
"I knew it. If it were just those few people, I'm afraid they would have taken over and told Liyue Qixing that Ye was Bai Ye of their people, and that no matter what he did, his Adepti would protect him."
Grandma Yu looked at the Adepti with a smile and began to tease them.
"How could I possibly do that?" Cloud Retainer retorted involuntarily, "We would only provide some support to Bai Ye."
This statement lacks any real conviction. It's likely that once Cloud Retainer away, they'll force the Liyue Qixing to collectively acknowledge that Bai Ye is their leader, or they won't give up.
Fortunately, Zhongli discovered it in advance.
When Hu Tao went to Zhuo to train with Rosalyn, Zhongli followed behind her for Hu Tao safety, worried about what might happen during the competition with Rosalyn.
Even if the odds are only one in ten thousand, he doesn't want this kind of accident to happen.
Seeing that these Adepti were about to cause trouble after bidding farewell to Hu Tao, Zhongli immediately stepped in to stop Adepti.
Later, they brought the group of people to Grandma Yu's place.
"Bai Ye hasn't contacted us, it's Guizhong we want to train him. The identity I gave Bai Ye before was meant to allow him to communicate between humans and immortals, thus cultivating his abilities. But I never expected..."
At this point, he was somewhat speechless. He hadn't expected that during the battle, Cloud Retainer had mistaken Bai Ye for a thief and attacked him so ruthlessly. Under these circumstances, Grandma Yu could only intervene to stop her from attacking Bai Ye. This made it clear to all the Adepti whose disciple Bai Ye was. Under such circumstances, who would still care about training Bai Ye?
"I... I don't know either..." Upon hearing this, Cloud Retainer looked somewhat embarrassed.
She lightly stamped her foot and said to the others, "So, what should we do next? We can't just let things continue like this, can we?"
"Well, if the trials of the Adepti can't give him the experience, then the next step is to have someone force him to become the hero who leads people to a new home."
Zhongli thought for a moment, then spoke to Cloud Retainer and the others.
"Your the Geo Archon, what do you intend to do?"
The Moon Carver asked a question.
"I just want the people of Liyue to see the consequences of continuing to live collectively in Liyue."
Zhongli spoke softly.
Then he quietly closed his eyes and pointed his hand towards Mt. Tianheng. A ball of earth-yellow light then appeared in his palm, and the light moved towards Mt. Tianheng.
The Adepti were unaware of Zhongli's motives for doing this.
As they were thinking this, on the other side of Mt. Tianheng, the earth shook violently, as if an earthquake had occurred.
Even on the Yujing Terrace side, a violent tremor was also felt.
As the Adepti looked around, they could see many houses beginning to shake and become precarious.
"Your the Geo Archon, what's wrong...?"
Cloud Retainer asked Zhongli.
"I see, I understand now." Before Zhongli Li could speak, Grandma Yu spoke first, "In Liyue Harbor, as the population increases, the need for housing also increases. In order to build houses in this small area, many places have haphazardly built houses. These houses are not only dangerous for themselves, but also pose a threat to the surrounding buildings. Your the Geo Archon, are you planning to force the Seven Stars to relocate a portion of the population from Liyue Harbor by doing this?"
"It's unlikely that they'll stay in places like Qingce Village; it's more appropriate to rebuild the Guili Plains location. The people's needs are forcing the Liyue Qixing and the Bai Ye to take action."
"Yes." Zhongli nodded gently. "Moreover, this isn't a threat. I saw the blood relative's journey from five weeks ago. This proves that Teyvat is currently undergoing a major change. The disaster that is happening here may be even greater than it was five weeks ago. Therefore, this advance preparation is also a precaution. We can no longer shelter Liyue from the storm; the next step is up to them."
Perhaps this is why Bai Ye) appeared.
Zhongli thought to himself.
As the saying goes, "Times create heroes." In the Teyvat, where great chaos is about to erupt, Zhongli clearly sensed a continuous emergence of talents more outstanding than ever before. This generation of the Seven Stars is significantly better than any previous generation, while ordinary people like Hu Tao Xiangling Ling also possess talents far surpassing their ancestors.
The situation is similar in other countries as well.
Perhaps it is in order to cope with the changes that are taking place in this world that so many outstanding people emerge at the same time.
"I gave them a heads-up. What they do next is up to the people of Liyue." Zhongli looked at the other Adepti.
"You shall bless Bai Ye, protect Bai Ye, and teach him Art of Automata Adeptal Arts. However, you shall not participate in the subsequent construction. Human creativity has limitless possibilities."
"Mingyi," Cloud Retainer nodded, "I will absolutely not personally interfere in the reconstruction of Bai Ye Guili Plains again."
Grandma Yu and Zhongli exchanged a glance, both understanding what she was thinking.
However, they were also aware of the situation.
It is an essential part of life.
Isn't it normal to have a semicolon in the Guili Collection of Purangshengtang (Wanmintang)?
At this moment Moon Carver spoke:
"So, should we walk around Liyue Qixing next to create a sense of urgency for them? The more urgent the situation, the more likely it is that Bai Ye will take charge."
When it comes to construction, Keqing and Bai Ye are currently the most likely candidates in Liyue. However Keqing specializes in traditional construction, while Bai Ye specializes in Art of Automata. If things are done slowly, Keqing undoubtedly has the advantage, but if speed is desired, Bai Ye is the better choice.
"So it is also futile."
Zhongli nodded in agreement.
However, before the Adepti left, Zhongli said to them again, "By the way, during this time, you should search for the place where the Gods fell."
There are many remnants of Gods on Guili Plains, but not all remnants are the same. Many places may simply be where two Gods fought, leaving behind their aura, or the remains of one of their personal belongings. These places will also pollute the surrounding area, but they are different from the places where they actually perished.
Bai Ye didn't hide the fact that she had obtained the Gods's remains from Xiangling and Hu Tao. Xiang Ling also revealed this when she went to see Grandma Yu, who later found Zhongli. At this point, Zhongli began to wonder what Bai Ye planned to do with all this.
It is simply a material used to make mechanisms.
Or is it that we can obtain their power?
If it were a later death...
Zhongli couldn't help but glance outside Liyue Harbor.
There are quite a few strange things there.
Especially since one of the Gods was completely intact, with its beard and tail intact.
Moreover, although its combat strength is not quite at the top level like mine, it is still considered a powerful Gods. Its authority and power are quite impressive.
On the Jade Chamber, everyone outside saw the tremors that had occurred near Mt. Tianheng.
"An earthquake?"
Keqing said in surprise.
She quickly realized what was happening and looked towards Liyue Harbor. Seeing from the sky that no buildings had collapsed, Keqing breathed a sigh of relief.
"Luckily, the earthquake was far enough away, otherwise it would have been really easy for something to happen. Many buildings in Liyue are illegally constructed, which makes accidents very easy. I try my best to crack down on those unscrupulous builders, but there are still many of them. Moreover, many people build their own houses because they have large families or are new to Liyue. In these cases, it's not appropriate for me to demolish them, so I can only help reinforce them, but it's still dangerous. Normally there are no problems, but if an earthquake really happens, things are bound to happen."
She said with relief.
"No, it must have been man-made."
Ningguang shook his head.
Just then, three streaks of light flashed across the sky. Everyone looked and saw that two cranes and a deer had flown over the top of the Jade Chamber.
Are these Adepti forcing us to build Guili Plains as soon as possible?
"Will they really hurt someone next time? Even if the Rex Lapis is gone, they shouldn't do this!"
Keqing said in disbelief.
"Master and the others won't do that!" Ganyu Yu appeared at this moment and argued with Keqing.
Other than that, between the Adepti and the Seven Stars, Ganyu should choose the Adepti's side.
"No, they won't cause any harm." Ningguang pointed to the Liyue people who had emerged from the earthquake.
"They are the driving force that compels us to take action."
If the Liyue Qixing lose the support of the Adepti and also lose the hearts of the people, they will truly be close to their downfall.
Ningguang turned her head towards Bai Ye at this moment.
Focus your gaze...
Ningguang was about to focus her gaze on Bai Ye, but quickly turned her head away slightly.
Focusing too much on him makes you forget what you should be saying.
Ningguang spoke:
"Next, if we want to build at a speed that meets the current needs of the people of Liyue, only you can take charge. Ordinary construction methods won't work; only Art of Automata can make it happen. Bai Ye, the future of the entire Liyue depends on you."
As she said this, Ningguang sighed at Bai Ye's fate. These Adepti, though they hadn't said a word, were still supporting Bai Ye.
This level of support is something that none of the other Adepti disciples could provide.
Furthermore, given the appointment by the Rex Lapis, Ningguang even had a suspicion that this Bai Ye might be the Rex Lapis's illegitimate son.
Otherwise, how could other Adepti have accomplished such a feat?
Keqing instinctively wanted to refute, but she understood the reasoning behind Ningguang's words.
She really couldn't do it.
Currently, only Bai Ye can satisfy all the people of Liyue.
