Chapter 267 Zhongli: Lord Tianquan
"So, do you like this gift?"
Shiraki looked at Xiao with a smile.
"Thanks you."
Xiao bowed deeply to Shiraki.
He casually wiped his eyes, removing the few remaining tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Alright, now I'm going to get down to business."
Bai Mu withdrew his gaze from Xiao and turned to look at Zhong Li.
"You saw their condition. I only helped them to focus their consciousness. Due to some reasons, I couldn't immediately restore their physical bodies."
"Do you see if there's any way to solve this? You should already know about some related precautions, right?"
Upon hearing this, Zhongli's expression also became serious.
Although he didn't know Bai Mu's method of resurrection, Zhong Li did know one thing.
If Bai Mu is allowed to resurrect the dead without limit, they will eventually attract the attention of those above.
Therefore, if we want the four Yakshas to enter the world peacefully, we must take some measures.
While Bai Mu and Zhong Li were talking, Xiao was also quietly chatting with the four Yakshas about some trivial matters.
"Jin Peng, why does that person sitting next to the Dust Demon God feel so familiar?"
"That's right, seeing him is like seeing the Emperor himself?"
"Could that be the Emperor?"
"How could that be? The Emperor is full of murderous intent; He doesn't have such a peaceful demeanor."
"That is the Emperor."
Hearing his old friends' discussion, Xiao whispered to himself.
"What?!" *4
Four exclamations of surprise simultaneously emanated from the Chensha Rebirth Record.
Although Zhongli gave them the feeling of an emperor, their temperaments were completely different.
“Liyue is no longer as war-torn as it used to be, and the Emperor has not used force for a long time.”
...
"I plan to first make the people of Liyue remember them, and then rebuild their bodies based on the people's wishes."
Zhongli's method was remarkably similar to Baimu's method of reviving Zhen, and Baimu couldn't help but nod inwardly.
It seems that Zhongli has some understanding of these rules.
"I've already come up with a rough plan, but..."
"Stop. I have a lot of things to do, and I'm sure you can handle these things yourself. Don't push everything onto me."
Upon hearing Zhongli's sudden change of topic, Bai Mu quickly waved his hand to interrupt him from continuing.
"Uh, that's not what I meant. I didn't mean to bother you."
"What I mean is, I need the World Tree's help, and I'd like you to put in a good word for me."
The World Tree that Zhongli mentioned is actually the Great Compassion Tree King. Because the Great Compassion Tree King did not give itself a normal human name, everyone except Bai Mu calls the Great Compassion Tree King the World Tree.
As for Shiroki, he always referred to the Great Tree King as "you" or "she," so he never paid much attention to the name of the Great Tree King.
"Tell me your plan first, and tell me if there's anything else you need her help with."
Zhongli nodded and began to explain his plan to everyone present.
After listening, both Bai Mu and Gui Zhong felt that there was nothing wrong with the plan.
The plan is roughly that on the day of the Lantern Festival, Xiao will exorcise demons in Liyue, and then the Great Tree King will broadcast the scene of Xiao's exorcism to Liyue Harbor in real time, so that the people of Liyue Harbor can see Xiao's efforts.
Then Zhongli will find a storyteller to explain, through the scenes of Xiao exorcising demons, the contributions the Yakshas made to Liyue.
By explaining, we can help the people of Liyue regain their acceptance of the Yaksha. Once the people of Liyue accept the Yaksha, the land of Liyue will surely accept the Yaksha's existence again.
In this way, the sudden appearance of the four Yakshas would not seem too abrupt to the world.
"This method works, I will pass it on to you."
"Alright, I'll be going now. You go and talk to Ningguang about the venue and the storyteller."
Before leaving, Bai Mu secretly took the bag of tea that Zhong Li had left on the table.
Although Bai Mu doesn't like drinking this stuff, it can fetch a high price in Pantalonia.
After Bai Mu left, Zhong Li chatted with the four yakshas for a while, then gave instructions to them and Xiao:
"You should go back and make preparations first."
Xiao nodded, then took the four Yakshas and transformed into a streak of blue light, leaving Zhongli's courtyard.
"I need to go to Qunyu Pavilion."
"I will go with you."
Zhongli took out a Liyue module and sent a message to Ningguang on it. Then he got up and walked towards the door. Guizhong followed him.
"Zhongli, where are you going?"
"Qunyu Pavilion".
"I am coming too!"
While watching ants move their nest, Hu Tao saw Zhong Li about to go out, and being bored, she naturally followed him.
......
Yujingtai.
Upon arriving at this location, Zhongli immediately spotted Ningguang standing nearby.
"Mr. Zhongli, what brings you here?"
Standing next to Ningguang, Baishi, the secretary, looked surprised. Although Zhongli was a minor celebrity in Liyue Harbor, he didn't deserve such respect from his master.
However, before the secretary Bai Shi's surprise could subside, Zhong Li's words surprised her even more.
"Help me find a larger venue; I need it for the Lantern Festival."
"Furthermore, I need to hire a professional storyteller, in an official capacity."
Even Hu Tao could tell from Zhong Li's words that he was giving an order rather than making a request, let alone his little secretary Bai Shi.
The two women were looking at Zhongli with strange eyes, especially Hu Tao, whose curious gaze made Zhongli feel uneasy.
Because he had focused all his energy on the Yakshas, and because Zhongli, as the person he was talking to, hadn't had many offline interactions with Ningguang, he subconsciously used the same tone he used when he was performing the summoning ceremony with Ningguang.
"Zhongli, how could you speak to Lord Tianquan Star like that? Apologize right now!"
Hu Tao, who was standing to the side, suddenly spoke up.
Some time ago, for some unknown reason, the Heavenly Star Lord of Qunyu Pavilion actually spoke up for his own Hall of Rebirth on the "Moon Network".
Although Hu Tao didn't understand why, Ning Guang's actions had helped her shrine of rebirth, making her a benefactor of the shrine of rebirth.
Since Zhongli had just spoken to his benefactor in such a manner, Hu Tao should criticize Zhongli for it, both morally and logically.
An apology is unavoidable.
Realizing the inappropriateness of her tone, Zhongli quietly added one last sentence:
"I apologize, Lord Tianquanxing."
Ningguang: ...

I wonder if you guys still remember Liyue and the Moonnet.
