Chapter 273: Big commotion in the Jade Pavilion
Chapter 273: Big commotion in the Jade Pavilion
Sitting in a seat closer to the front, Nan Zhangsheng looked at the chaos on the stage with a dazed expression, as if he was shocked and didn't know what to say.
Ying and Paimeng looked at each other, their hair disheveled in the wind.
What's going on?
The god in Mondstadt next door just didn't care about anything, so why did he die directly here? Isn't it said that the Geo King is very powerful?
"Master Zhang, what... should we do?" Paimeng and Ying looked at the young man in blue and asked anxiously.
Nan Zhangsheng spread his hands and said hesitantly, "I don't know either, but if you don't run around, you won't be caught."
Afterwards, under the interrogation of Qianyan Army, people left one by one, and the scene was almost cleared, leaving only the officials of the General Affairs Department and their families.
The seven stars looked at each other, and there was something hidden in each of their eyes. The meaning was similar: the problem was solved, and it was time to issue a decree to appease the people.
On the other side, Nan Zhangsheng was waiting outside with Ying and Pai Meng. Although they were relatives of the family, they still went out according to the convention.
"The Rock God has passed away. What should we do now?" Paimon looked at the yellow-haired girl with a big question mark on his head.
Ying frowned, indicating that she didn't know either.
Afterwards, with the joint appeasement of the Seven Stars and a group of officials, this disaster that would have caused great turmoil in Liyue Harbor was finally calmed down a little, and it was not like the sky was falling.
"The impact has been alleviated. Next, we should prepare for the ceremony of sending the immortal away. Otherwise, the Emperor might think that we only remember Liyue Harbor and forgot to send this god away."
Su Ping proposed this at the Seven Star Conference.
Nan Zhangsheng had reminded him long ago that if he wanted to advance the plot quickly, then taking over the arrangement of the Immortal Sending Ceremony would be a great help.
The Rock Emperor has a special meaning to the people of Liyue. He has been with this rock port for 3,700 years. It is impossible for the people of Liyue to do nothing one day after he leaves.
Even if the Seven Stars knew that the Emperor was faking his death, if Liyue were to encounter a catastrophic disaster one day, the Emperor would still appear to save the people from the water and fire, but this formality was indispensable.
Tianshu Xing said: "Send someone to contact Wangsheng Hall."
This opinion was unanimously passed. After all, when it comes to funeral business, no one in Liyue knows more about it than Wangsheng Hall. This is the truth.
Not long after that, a group of immortals came to the Qun Yu Pavilion and started a war of words. However, this was only what they said to the outside world. In fact, they got along very harmoniously.
"Xieyue, you made a wrong move. You should take this step." A black crane with a red dot on its head waved its wings and gave instructions.
"I know. This is about letting the child be born." The fairy deer with huge horns as crystal clear as jade on its head explained without blushing.
These two are True Lord Lishui Dieshan and True Lord Xueyue Zhuyang. They are both immortals in Jueyunjian, just like True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng.
The person he was playing chess with was Su Yunqing, who was only five years old. He immediately bowed and said calmly, "Thank you for your teachings, Master. I will give in."
True Lord Xue Yue Zhu Yang acted like a senior, and said slowly: "Winning is winning, there is no such thing as giving in or not, and this immortal is not someone who cannot afford to lose."
Su Yunqing smiled and said, "Yes."
Xueyue Zhuyang sighed softly, "If your fate with immortality was deep enough, I would really like to accept you as my last disciple. What a pity, what a pity."
"Who said it wasn't?" Lishui Dieshan also sighed.
When accepting disciples, one must first consider the person's character and affinity with the immortals. The former is because one is afraid that the person may bring disaster to the world, while the latter is based on how far the person has gone on the path of cultivation.
Those who do not have enough affinity with immortality are not necessarily unable to practice, but the effort they put in may not bring much harvest. It is better not to practice immortality and do other things that are better and more important.
This slight sadness did not last long because of the presence of True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng. With just one word, she made the two immortals keep talking.
"Who said I can't afford to lose? Come over here and fight me for three hundred rounds!"
"Come on, come on!"
The three immortals were full of fighting spirit. Although they were playing chess, the moves they made were more brilliant than their explanations and ideas, which were few and far between.
At the tea table, Grandma Ping, Su Lingling, Su Ping and a group of people who had more or less affinity with immortals were all sitting there drinking tea.
The lively and cheerful Su Lingling, who was very smart at a young age, told the whole story and pretended to be mature, "In fact, if I want to inherit the immortal family's unique skills, I, Su Lingling, am willing to learn from the strengths of the immortals and support the great immortal arts!"
"no way!"
The three immortals, Xueyue, Lishui and Liuyun, refused without a second thought, because the little girl was too noisy and they didn't want to end up with a situation in which they couldn't even live in peace in their own caves.
"Why?" Su Lingling was very unconvinced and asked in a neither humble nor arrogant manner in Grandma Ping's arms.
Two immortals replied in one sentence, "If we want to have a disciple, just let your father learn."
It is different for Master Liuyun Jiefeng. She has disciples, and two of them are truly outstanding, surpassing everyone else, so she doesn't need to accept more.
Su Lingling was furious when she heard this and turned away from looking at the group of immortals. She was the only one in the world who dared to treat them like this. If it were someone else, they would not even dare to think about it, let alone dare to do it.
"Disrespectful...whatever." The green-haired boy, standing by the wall with his arms folded across his chest, thought for a moment before saying the familiar words.
Grandma Ping nodded and said calmly, "Great Sage Conquering the Demons, it's a rare occasion for all the immortals to gather together today to relive the past. Don't stand all the time. Come and sit down."
"No need." He had no intention of leaving, or rather, his presence here was already the greatest tolerance for himself, otherwise the Yaksha would not easily show up in front of people.
Grandma Ping smiled slightly and said nothing more.
Su Ping looked at the Yaksha whose appearance had not changed in the past twenty years, and advised: "Shangxian Xiao, I have never been able to thank you in person for saving my life many years ago. Now that you are here, you really can't stand."
The demon-conquering sage, named Xiao by the Emperor, shook his head and said, "It is the duty of a Yaksha to save people. Don't worry about it."
"It's my duty, but it's also a life-saving favor. It's a great favor and I can't neglect it." Su Ping said as he stood up to invite him.
Xiao whispered that it was troublesome, but he did not refuse again. He walked over and sat down, although he still felt that human rules were really troublesome.
"I can't stay here for long." Xiao was a little worried, afraid that the karma he carried on his body would affect the people around him, especially the two children.
Grandma Ping comforted her, "Don't worry, the two Qilin children in my disciple's family are not out of the ordinary. They will be fine in the short term. The seven stars who are really in trouble are sitting over there."
The old man pointed and it was the five seven stars who were eagerly waiting in the distance. Ningguang was not among them, but was nearby. Because she had the Eyes of God and had also received the blessings of the immortal disciples, she was not afraid of the karma that was emitted for the time being.
Qilin'er? Ganyu felt that she was being mentioned for no reason. She looked around and was relieved when she found that her master showed no sign of responding. Shen He was in a similar situation.
Su Lingling lay in the arms of her master, feeling very lazy, and said softly: "Master, when will Lingling be able to learn the real immortal arts, to suppress the stars with his palms, and to change the world with a flick of his fingers?"
Grandma Ping rubbed the little girl's head and said softly, "It will happen soon. When Xiao Lingling's attainments in immortal arts are as high as those of her master, she will be able to do it."
Su Lingling lowered her eyebrows, looking very cute, and said: "By then, Little Lingling will have become Old Lingling, it will be too late."
Such childish words made everyone who heard them smile, and they also sighed that the child had extraordinary talent and might be as talented as Grandma Ping in the future, which was truly amazing.
"How could that be? Lingling is always little Lingling in Master's place, no matter when, and she will never grow old." Grandma Ping comforted the little girl as if she were comforting her own granddaughter.
Su Ping couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he smiled and said, "Ling Ling, just be content for now. I have no hope of reaching Master's level."
Su Lingling ignored this and spoke like a person who had experienced it, "Everything depends on human effort. Dad hasn't even tried it, so how can he know it's impossible? We can't give up easily."
Don't give up easily. This is a truth that everyone understands, but it seems more sincere when it comes from a child.
The truth is indeed good, but it is an indisputable fact that Su Ping has no hope of truly standing shoulder to shoulder with the immortals in this life, and this cannot be changed.
Because his fate with immortality was not as deep as his daughter's, and he also started in his youth, about ten years later than his daughter, so his ultimate achievement was fixed in that pond.
Su Lingling is different. She has been baptized with elixirs since she can remember. She is diligent and studious, hardworking, and especially has a very deep affinity with immortals. Therefore, her final achievement may be a big river, a boundless lake, or even a vast ocean.
All these are still unknowns. For now, as long as Su Lingling is a carefree little girl, plays with her younger brother, and stays with her parents, she will be very happy and satisfied.
"Grandmaster, Lingling remembers you said that the magic of our Ping-style lineage is the strongest among the three-eyed and five-manifested immortals, right?" Su Lingling blinked her big eyes, looking forward to it.
"Of course, for thousands of years, the one with the highest attainments in immortal arts has always been the master." Grandma Ping was bragging, of course, but it was the truth. According to the killing power, even the naturally brave Yaksha was inferior to him.
As soon as she said this, she immediately attracted the attention of all the fairies, but no one refuted it for fear of being humiliated again. Because it was the fact, and they couldn't beat Grandma Ping, they had to accept it.
"So, Ling Ling doesn't need to learn Aunt Liuyun's talismans and mechanisms, Uncle Xueyue's formations, and Uncle Lishui's stone soul control?"
The little girl with hair as white as snow counted the abilities of all the fairies on her fingers, her peach blossom eyes shining with a smile on her face.
Grandma Ping nodded and said, "It's useless to learn!"
"A Ping, that's enough!"
The immortals shouted, and all of them except Xiao were angry. Even if this guy wanted to promote herself, there was no need to provoke them like this. Could they still have a good chat?
"What? I'm not telling the truth?" Grandma Ping closed her eyes slightly, with a gleam in her eyes.
"You have no say!" the three True Lords said indignantly.
What followed was another round of verbal battle. Grandma Ping successfully obtained the magic skills of other immortals for her good granddaughter. It seemed that she was paving an invincible road for her future immortal disciple.
In this regard, Su Ping and Ningguang could only watch. After all, these people were both elders and immortals, and they could not afford to offend them.
To put it bluntly, it’s just the elders spoiling their children.
