For the Sake of Reviving My Teacher, Let's Work Hard to Clear the Archon Ruins!

"Rina's origins didn't begin in Liyue Harbor. Her origins are much earlier..."

Zhongli slowly began to explain the origin of the pickled mustard greens.

"During the Archon War, it wasn't just Liyue Harbor that had a large population. Guili Plains, Diyu Continent, and Mt. Tianheng were also inhabited by people protected by the Gods. The local people farmed and gathered, leading prosperous lives."

"Was it around that time that Rina appeared?"

Hu Tao asked curiously.

"Yes, it wasn't called Li Cai back then." Zhongli nodded affirmatively. "The people, living prosperous lives under the protection of the Gods, began to pursue delicious food after they had eaten their fill. The earliest dish of mountain delicacies appeared in Guili Plains ..."

When Zhongli was talking about the Guili Plains, he secretly glanced at Bai Ye.

Bai Ye did not react.

Zhongli continued, "Makoshort, the Gourmet Archon, worked with the people to study the plants that grow in the soil to make exquisite food, which greatly improved the lives of the people in Guili Plains at that time."

"That's several thousand years ago, isn't it?"

Xiangling was unaware that Makoshort was referring to the Guoba at her feet. Upon hearing Zhongli's words, her eyes widened in curiosity.

"Yes."

Zhongli nodded.

"Later, due to the Archon War, Guili Plains destroyed. Those Rina plants gradually began to migrate to Liyue Harbor. They formed a stark contrast to the Moon Cuisine that Liyue Harbor relied on for its seafood at the time. The two later developed into the two restaurants, Liuli Pavilion and Xinyue Kiosk. However, in my opinion, the Rina plants that can truly be called Rina plants are still those from Guili Plains."

"You talk about it with such longing, as if you've actually tasted it yourself," Hu Tao said to Zhongli Li.

After speaking, he narrowed his eyes, revealing a scrutinizing expression.

"Don't tell me, Zhongli, you are actually an Adepti?"

"I am not Adepti."

Zhongli responded calmly.

"Yeah?"

Hu Tao was skeptical.

On the other side, upon hearing Zhongli say this, Xiangling stroked her chin and said:

"I see. Hmm, it seems I still have a long way to go before I can make Wanmin Restaurant a restaurant that rivals Liuli Pavilion and Xinyue Kiosk!"

He then clenched his fist, appearing full of confidence.

Bai Ye, Ye understood another layer of meaning from Zhongli.

He was giving Seven Stars a suggestion.

Or express your opinion.

Clear away all the Gods ruins of Guili Plains, so that Liyue can have another piece of land where people can live.

Just as Bai Ye had envisioned.

However, before we can develop it, we need to remove the Gods's relics one by one.

If we can do these things,

The Adepti would naturally believe that the Liyue Qixing could protect Liyue.

This is much better than dealing with a Gods Osial.

After all, dealing with the Gods Osial is a one-shot deal; if someone were to unleash a burst of power, they could probably take care of it.

The task of clearing away the Gods's ruins was a long one.

It definitely better showcases the Liyue Qixing.

There is one crucial question here.

The purification of the Gods's Ruins can be done without anyone else, but not yourself.

Thinking about the Gods ruins of Guili Plains, and then about the karma that Xiao possessed, Bai Ye suddenly felt her legs trembling.

"Bai Ye, what's wrong?"

Shenhe asked Bai Ye a question.

This slight tremor would go unnoticed by others, but Shenhe could detect it very keenly.

Zhongli must have known this too, but she didn't say anything.

"No, I just feel a little unwell."

Bai Ye said to Shenhe.

His words immediately attracted the attention of both Hu Tao and Xiangling.

"Are you still feeling unwell?" Hu Tao immediately stood up. "Why don't you go and rest first?"

"Forehead..."

Bai Ye looked at the food on the table.

"Let's at least finish our meal first, since we've already paid."

"Eat, you eat!"

Hu Tao said irritably.

Zhongli continued eating, occasionally pondering how to improve Bai Ye's physical abilities.

After finishing their meal, the group prepared to leave.

Standing at the door, Hu Tao said to Bai Ye:

"Let's go, Bai Ye. Get some rest after you leave. If you don't rest immediately after you leave, the Hall Master will dig a hole and let you sleep forever."

"Okay, okay, I'll rest right away after I leave."

Seeing that Hu Tao was about to get angry, Bai Ye immediately nodded in agreement.

Go home and rest!

Several people walked outside.

Then...

Bai Ye and Zhongli stopped.

Hu Tao didn't change her position and bumped directly into Bai Ye's back.

"Hey, why did you stop?"

Hu Tao touched her forehead and said to Bai Ye.

"Master, this is Fang Bi's place in the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor."

Zhongli looked at Hu Tao, Hu Tao had parted ways with him and was following behind Bai Ye, and said speechlessly.

Hu Tao looked at it for a moment, then suddenly realized:

"Oh, so this is the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor. Cough cough, I followed Bai Ye mainly because I was worried that my friend might be in danger."

She explained it very seriously.

"As your friend, of course I'm worried about whether you'll be in danger!"

I've been holding back for days, how could I possibly let you off so easily now that I've seen you, Hall Master?

Hmm, I must get a good night's sleep.

"Danger? What makes him dangerous?"

Upon hearing Hu Tao mention the danger, Shenhe immediately perked up.

She looked around, seemingly anticipating that an assassin might suddenly appear to kill Bai Ye.

"This..."

Hu Tao also got a little stuck.

Would she say that the person the Hall Master is most worried about is you Shenhe?

"There are still quite a few remnants of the Fatui and the Treasure Hoarders, and the possibility of assassination cannot be ruled out."

Zhongli then provided an assist for Hu Tao.

"Yes, there is a possibility of assassination!"

Hu Tao said confidently.

At that moment, his eyes were fixed on Bai Ye.

What else could Bai Ye do?

Nod and agree.

I'm just a fourteen-year-old boy, why should I have to bear this pressure?

However, the accommodation is not a big problem.

Bai Ye remembered the maze diagram on his body.

There is this,

Even a few more people could fit in.

So the three of them left together.

Zhongli looked at the scene, shook his head, and prepared to leave.

He glanced at Xiangling beside him, Xiangling was holding Guoba, her expression very conflicted.

He left alone.

On the next day, Bai Ye ascended the Jade Chamber once again.

He also shared his thoughts with Ningguang, Keqing, Tian Shu, and Ganyu.

"By clearing away the Gods's ruins, we can make the Adepti understand the abilities and resolve of the Liyue Qixing at this moment?"

Keqing looked at Bai Ye with a suspicious gaze.

"Is this really possible?"

Seeing that Keqing didn't believe him, Bai Ye immediately said:

"Of course, why would I say that if I couldn't do it?"
