Original God's Dark Priest

Chapter 15 No sorrow? Brutal and empty



The Fools are undoubtedly at a disadvantage when negotiating with Zhongli on a daily basis. Because of demand issues, Zhongli's force and the Heart of God in his hands are problems that the Fools have to face. For this reason, they must achieve it even if they give up most of their interests.

After all, the Heart of God is the ultimate goal, and everything else can be abandoned. This is true for Dadalia, and the same is true for the ninth company that was sent into the abyss of rock.

Safire returned to his seat, picked up the Heart of God on the table, and played with it in his hand: "The authority of the Rock God? This chess piece does not seem to have that much power."

"Morax's casting of Mora consumed not only his divine power, but also his bones and blood. Everyone in the world thinks that I am one of the oldest gods, but they don't know that even I have suffered irresistible wear and tear." Zhongli looked at a group of people. The girl with a curious face was full of thoughts. Safire didn't know that even if she just appeared in front of Zhongli, she would already be a worn-out part of him.

"With this, can I also become a rock god?" The girl raised her head and looked into Zhongli's amber eyes.

Zhongli tilted his head and looked away: "Well, it's an interesting idea, but with all due respect, I'm afraid it won't work. You don't have the qualifications to become the Seven Rulers of the World."

"It doesn't matter, it's not what I wanted in the first place." Safire gathered his own strength and slowly poured it into the Heart of God, but it was like a mud cow entering the sea, without any change.

"It seems like what you said, it won't recognize me." The golden Eye of God went out, Safire scratched his head and returned the Heart of God to Zhongli, who was watching all this with interest.

"Now that the contract has been concluded, what are Boss Phil's next plans?" Zhongli put away his divine heart and felt relaxed. He suddenly wanted to go find some old friends for a drink to celebrate. It was congratulations in advance for letting go of the heavy burden on my shoulders.

Safire thought for a while before saying: "There will still be some time left for the Immortal Invitation Ceremony, and the large and small affairs in Liyue have been processed. I want to go to Mondstadt after a while to have a look. I don't know if Barbatos is awake." Is there any more?"

Zhong Li nodded after hearing this: "The alcoholic poet seems to be oblivious to everything, but he is a rare understanding person. I believe Boss Phil can gain a lot by going to him."

"A drunkard poet? He's a very interesting guy, isn't he?" Safir chuckled. When she went to Mondstadt this time, she would not use her status as a fool to seize power from a lady. Since Liyue will need her to act with another identity in the future, it would be better to create this identity in Mondstadt.

After chatting for a while, Zhongli left first. As expected, he met the old man and his friend from before at the door. They sat together and chatted for a while. But this has nothing to do with Saffir.

Ada brought the tea back, and Safir asked her to be the current person in charge of the Iwagami Teahouse and manage the business of the Iwagami Teahouse. And he was preparing to leave for Mondstadt.

She met Zhongli again at the door. Zhongli told her that he would send someone to deliver what she wanted in two days, so she might as well wait patiently for a few days.

At the Jade Pavilion, Ye Lan had already told Ning Guang some of the things he knew, but he had excluded the parts related to Zhong Li.

Ning Guang nodded to express understanding and said nothing more. At present, it seems that the Fool's Executive Officers have left Liyue and are nowhere to be found. An Mu is still staying in Liyue Port, but he is just running a teahouse. There is no action. The original storm is coming, as if it is an illusion. , and it just subsided. Liyue was so calm that it gave Ningguang a very bad feeling. She always felt like she was missing something. What was it? She couldn't figure it out.

Ye Lan also left after the report, leaving Ning Guang sitting alone in his seat and meditating. "The Fools, Liyue, Winter Kingdom, Dark Shepherd Safire." She identified clues one after another, but in the end they pointed to a blank. She didn't know whether it was the young master's departure or Safir's purpose in setting up the Yanshang Tea Room. This situation hadn't happened for a long time. The last time something like this happened was when she didn't have a complete intelligence agency. She was deaf. The feeling of confusion.

"Could it be that." Ning Guang's eyes fell on Ye Lan's report, "Ye Lan is hiding something from me. Did she betray me? No, no, it seems like she wanted to do it this way. Tell me something in a cryptic way. Is there anything that she can't tell? Or is she not sure whether she can tell me even to me, the Tianquan Star?"

The answer is already revealed. In Liyue, there is only one person who dares to say that he is above the Seven Stars. Even if it is an immortal, the Seven Stars only have an equal relationship with him, there is no subordinate relationship, unless it is that person.

"Emperor." Ningguang finally posted a note with the emperor's handwriting on the wall next to him.

After looking at the connected content on the wall, Ningguang nodded: "The strange movements of the Fools are related to the emperor. Is the emperor planning something? What is it that makes the emperor unwilling to tell even if he comes into contact with the fools? Where is Qixing? Although they are confused, most of the haze in their hearts has gone away. Since it is the emperor's handwriting, there is no need for them to worry. The emperor must have deep intentions in doing this. It doesn't matter even if they don't understand, just trust them all.

"These two weapons are respectively derived from the weapons of a demon god, 'Yan Ai' and 'Yan Shang'." At the door of the Rebirth Hall, Safire came here at Zhongli's invitation. As soon as they met, Zhongli took out a box, opened it and showed it to Safire.

Two silver-white daggers lay quietly in the box, reflecting the cold light.

Safire gently picked up the two daggers and observed them carefully: "'Salt Sorrow' and 'Salt Sorrow'. They tell the story of a weak and stupid monarch who brought destruction to his subjects."

"Concession without a bottom line will only result in the greedy person's unscrupulous demands. This is the tragedy of Heulia. After her death, her former weapon also fell into my hands. Do you know, in When I got them, they didn't even start." There was a look of memory in Zhongli's eyes.

He also wanted to go over and help Heulia, but what stopped him was the one who was always known for his kindness.

"In troubled times, any unwarranted good intentions will lead to various speculations. If Heulia surrenders voluntarily, we can accept her and her people, but as long as she does not give up her status as an independent demon god, she can only be ours. enemy."

That's what he was told after all.

"You don't want to be attached to the strong, and you don't have enough strength yourself. You can't do anything, but you want everything. This is not gentleness, but greed."

A trace of surprise flashed in Zhongli's eyes. What Safire said was exactly the same as what he had said before. In the past, Zhongli didn't understand it and only agreed because of his friendship. But now that he has been a ruler for many years, he has a different understanding of all this.

"You are really similar to Gui Shu."

Safire laughed: "Heulia, you must be extremely beautiful. Mr. Zhongli, he is really a stone, the kind that cannot be covered with heat."

Zhong Li smiled bitterly and shook his head: "After my recasting, they have gained greater power. The previous names are no longer suitable for them. You can give them another name. Think of it as a master recognition ceremony."

"What's the name?" Saffir gently stroked one of the weapons, "Let's call it 'Wu Ai? Ruikong'. What do you think, Mr. Zhongli?"

"This is your weapon, you can do anything with it." Zhong Li spread his hands without objecting.

Watching Safire's leaving figure, Zhongli sighed. He didn't know whether it was right or wrong to hand over these two weapons to the other party, but he had decided to trust the other party and he would not hesitate.

"Ouch!" Suddenly, an eccentric girl dressed in black screamed and rushed to Zhongli's side. In her two big eyes, the bloody plum blossoms rotated slowly, looking a little weird. And with a hint of playfulness that can't be concealed.

Being interrupted from his thoughts, Zhongli turned around helplessly and looked at the girl: "The hall master suddenly appeared. What are your orders?"

"Guest guest, I have been observing you this morning. I mysteriously came over with a big box. I thought it was some good thing, but before I had time to dig it out and think about it, you took it and gave it away?" The girl who was called the Hall Master had a hint of complaint in her tone, as if she wanted Zhongli to give an explanation.

Zhong Li chuckled lightly: "What the hall master said is not bad. It is indeed a good thing, but it is a pity that it is not suitable for the hall master to use."

"I'm not coveting your things! I have enough Humo Staff and wine, but I'm just a little curious. Even if you want to give it to me, I won't accept it." The girl jumped to the side, waved her hand and explained, "I'm just a guest. , there is something I want to ask you."

"The hall master just says what he has to say. Zhong will not hide it."

"What is the background of the girl who just walked away? I can't see through her?" The girl put her right hand above her eyes and looked into the distance, as if she was looking for Safiir's figure.

"Oh? Are there people who the Hall Master can't see through?" Zhong Li said this without any waves in his tone.

"Don't lie to me. I see that you are very familiar with each other, and you even give gifts to others. I say, guest, although this hall master is very open-minded, but at your age, don't have any excessive thoughts about others. Oh, otherwise even I can't help you." The girl warned with a mischievous smile.

Hearing this, Zhong Li helplessly raised his head and said, "The hall master is overly worried, it's just some business dealings. She will leave Liyue soon, so this thing can be regarded as a farewell gift."

"Huh, you better not lie to me."
