The people in the collapsing iron gave the immortal ship a small shock from the Holy Lord.

Hmm... not necessarily. She remembered that although Fufu was also a pure water spirit transformed into a human, she originally had the body of a demon god. When she used that ring to borrow power from her, her powerful recovery ability was incomparable to that of ordinary humans.

189 Fufu: Isn't the age gap between us too big?

"Have you heard? The Emperor brought back a very important person with him this time when he returned from Fontainebleau."

"what?"

"It's Lady Funina, the Water Goddess of Fontaine. She's holding a concert in Liyue at the invitation of the Emperor."

"what?"

"The Emperor has been so amazing lately. Liyue is not only changing rapidly, but also attracting many talented people and advanced technologies. There are Inazuma dolls, engineers from Fontaine, scholars from Sumeru, and even the General Affairs Department has invited some brewers from Mondstadt to develop new wines."

"You...you're actually the Geo Archon of Liyue?!"

Inside the Crescent Moon Pavilion, Funina pointed at Bai Zhi and it took her a long time to utter these words.

"I am the Rock King Emperor, is there a problem?"

Bai Zhi shrugged and said with a smile.

"Didn't you say you were a celestial being? The Liyue organization also said you were, so how did you become the Geo Archon? And... and..."

Fu Ningna scratched her head. Bai Zhi, this Geo God, something just didn't seem right to her. How could a Geo God use wind, lightning, fire, and water when using its power, but not rock-type attacks?

Is there some mistake here?

"Hmm... The Emperor has a title called Ancestor of All Immortals, which also means he can call himself an immortal."

Zhongli, who was sitting at the welcome banquet, coughed lightly, looked at Funina, and explained.

"Oh, this counts too?"

"Alright, Funina, this matter isn't important. What's important is that Bai Zhi has indeed resolved the issue that has been troubling us, hasn't she?"

On the specially made tall stool, Shadow, still in cat form, licked his paws and then spoke.

"Yes, that's right. No matter what Bai Zhi's identity is, I will always remember her kindness, just like a fish will always be grateful to the water for nourishing it."

Nasita used her wonderful metaphors in her daily life.

"The main point is... if Bai Zhi is the God of Rock, then..."

Fu Ningna looked at Bai Zhi with a conflicted expression. She remembered that the Rock God was an old guy who was over 6000 years old, and could be considered her elder.

She found it hard to believe that the Rock God, known for his composure, had become a cute-looking girl and had said those things to her.

It's completely severed from its identity!

Although age is often negligible for deities, a significant age gap can still create a strange feeling.

Zhongli took a sip of tea and said, "The Emperor has undergone a transformation, changing from his former self to his current appearance. Although he has lost his past memories, he has become more energetic than before. This Emperor must have a lot in common with Miss Funina."

"Yes, even after losing my memory, I still have a lot to learn."

"Eh?"

Funina looked at Bai Zhi, her eyes shining slightly.

No wonder she didn't feel that Bai Zhi had that old-fashioned air about her; instead, she felt she was very energetic and youthful.

In other words, at least Angelica dahurica won't have a significant age gap and make it very difficult for them to share common ground.

"Alright, that's nothing to worry about. Let's discuss the current situation in Liyue and how things are going."

"The situation is very good. Since the engineers from Fontaine joined, the doll project has made great progress and we can now produce some easy-to-manufacture and very effective results."

The first to speak was Shadow.

"Okay, that's good. We'll create some puppets to serve in areas where manpower is very scarce, such as monster hunting, rescue, or dangerous work. We'll gradually replace those in areas that are demanding but require a large population, at least ensuring that those without many skills can have something to eat."

"However... Shadow, your sister recently sent word that you should return to Inazuma immediately. According to the messenger, she seems quite angry."

"Cough cough, it's nothing. It's probably just that some guys are too useless. It's okay, I can stay a little longer."

"Really?" Bai Zhi looked at Ying with some suspicion.

"real."

When answering Bai Zhi's question, Ying turned her head away somewhat guiltily.

Others may not know, but doesn't she know perfectly well what she's done to Inazuma over the past few centuries? It's as if it's completely contrary to the true principles.

If I went back now, I'd definitely get a lot of flak!

Let's stay in Liyue and let my sister calm down on her own.

"Alright, since you yourself said so, I'll take it as true."

Bai Zhi shook her head, not taking it to heart, after all, it was a family matter between the two sisters.

"Now, let me talk about the construction of the Liyue version of the Void Network, which is basically complete."

Seeing that Ying was silent, Naxida chuckled and began to introduce her recent achievements.

"By drawing on the core technology of Shadow's puppets, we have developed a device that can store information and perform calculations."

Using elemental energy as its power source, it achieves a near-void effect; however, the entire network still requires base stations to transmit information.

"That's not a problem. If you want to use this service, just pay the fee."

Bai Zhi smiled and said, "Network operators have a very mature system."

"Okay, and this too, the terminal we made for receiving information."

Nasida took out a small gadget, about the size of her palm, from under the table.

"Through the research and development of many scholars in our Academy, we have developed this information terminal. Because it does not have my powers, this information terminal cannot be directly displayed in my mind, but it can be directly displayed on the device and has reached a fairly high standard of use."

Naxida proudly handed the equipment to Baizhi, gesturing for her to take a look.

"You've even developed something like this? As expected of you, the God of Wisdom truly lives up to his name."

"I'm glad I could help you." Nasita smiled. In this time, she felt that she could finally make something that could truly benefit the masses.

Compared to secretly helping the Sumeru people before, her current life is more in line with her expectations.

“That was a huge help. I have to thank you no matter what, Nasita.”

Bai Zhi reached out and rubbed Naxida's little head while turning on the device.

It must be said that the scholars of Sumeru are truly remarkable; this information terminal is already very close to the form of a mobile phone.

It even comes pre-installed with basic software.

"This is the same model written based on the virtual terminal's communication program, which can be used for long-distance communication."

"That's great! Now I can chat with Baizhi from far away."

Funina was somewhat tempted.

"Could this be imported to Fontainebleau?"

"Of course, as long as you pay, I believe Liyue would be very willing to lay out the signal in Fontaine. This thing should be ready to be promoted by the public."

190 The Arrival of Oser

"Wow, the internet is so convenient! Ever since the internet, which was developed under the Emperor's leadership, came out, it feels like the world has changed."

"Yes, I never imagined that I could talk and text with my wife from such a distance."

"It's just that the so-called data usage fee is a bit expensive."

"It's expensive, but tell me, are you buying it or not!"

"Buy it, of course I'll buy it. With the internet, everything is so much faster. I'm already requiring all my employees to learn how to use the internet."

"Hehe, Lao Li, you're amazing. I'm planning to do the same thing."

"Haha, great minds think alike! But Lao Wang, I heard your business has been having some trouble lately. What happened?"

"Sigh, what else could it be? You know, a lot of things have happened recently. It was supposed to be the best time for tea picking, but the water source suddenly dried up."

"The water source has dried up, the tea trees are short of water, and the quality has dropped a lot. Moreover, the sea has been turbulent lately, with strange whirlpools affecting the transport of goods."

"With these two factors combined, my business is going to be difficult."

"Oh dear, this is really difficult. Hey, look, something seems to be rising up on the beach."

"From the sea?"

"This...this...what a terrifying monster!!"

At Liyue Harbor, two merchants who were chatting watched in awe as the enormous entity rose from the sea.

"Morax, today I will exact my revenge on you and settle all scores!"

A colossal demon, resembling a stream of water and possessing several heads, rose from the water.

Meanwhile, the weather in Liyue Harbor also changed, with dark clouds overhead and strong winds blowing.

"what happened?"

Bai Zhi sat up in bed, still a little dazed, and moved the lightning cat that was lying on her away.

"It seems a demon has emerged from the sea. Bai Zhi, should I go and deal with it?"

"During this period of time, I have modified many of the general's settings. He is no longer as weak as before, and he is more than capable of dealing with such a demon god."

Having already sensed what was going on, Raiden Cat yawned and said lazily.

Shadow seemed completely unconcerned about Osel on the outskirts of Liyue Harbor.

Bai Zhi curiously opened the window, and could just see the huge Osel outside.

"Oh, so it was this thing. It actually came out after all."

Upon seeing Ausel, Bai Zhi understood why Ying didn't care anymore. Compared to Ying, the martial arts expert among the Seven Gods, Ausel, the demon god who was once suppressed by the rock spear, was truly a weakling.

In the original storyline, one hit from the Jade Pavilion would have been enough to take care of this guy.

Not to mention a demon god like Shadow who could easily kill Orobas and unleash the Musou Blade in a single strike.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. Bai Zhi waved her hand, and the door opened automatically.

Nasita walked in, along with Funina, who looked uneasy, and Zhongli, who didn't seem nervous at all.

"Do you need my help? Although I'm not good at fighting, I can still trap it in a little illusion."

Bai Zhi glanced at the Thousand Rock Army, which had appeared on the coast at some unknown time and was relentlessly attacking Ausel, and shook her head.

"No need. I'll handle this myself. In my memory, I've never fought a demon god before."

Of course, the giant mecha from Sumeru doesn't count; that thing is a complete counterfeit.

Bai Zhi leaped into the air, floated up, and then transformed into a dragon.

However, she did not attack Osel directly, but instead observed Liyue's defenses.

Over time, Liyue has made rapid progress. Bai Zhi could even see a large number of mechanical guards gathering at the port, with bullets formed from elemental power constantly raining down on Oser.

"Foolish mortal, do you think such a thing can defeat me!"

"I am Oser, the Demon God of Whirlpools! In the water, my power is boundless!"

One of Oser's heads spoke arrogantly, while the other head spewed water elemental breath, sweeping towards the mechanical guards that attacked it.

"Morax, come out here! Otherwise, I will destroy Liyue Harbor and let you taste the feeling of your people being wiped out!"

"Destroying Liyue Harbor? It's not that easy. How dare a mere demon god, sealed away by the Emperor, act so recklessly!"

On the Jade Pavilion, Ningguang's brows were frosty. She had already seen Baizhi rise in the distance and transform into a dragon, but she did not attack.
