Chapter 28: Rock King Fakes Death
After getting Ningguang’s permission.
Yingping brought Ying and Paimeng to the Immortal Ancestor Dharma Transformation of the Rock King Emperor.
Ying carefully observed the five-clawed golden dragon on the ground.
[This dead Rock God should not be the enemy of the past. 】
In her heart, she silently compared it with the image of the Heavenly Justice Maintainer who prevented her and her brother from leaving.
“Ying, did you see anything?”
Paimeng saw that the atmosphere around was not right, and she couldn’t help but fly over and lowered her voice to ask.
Ying shook her head and didn’t speak, but cast her eyes on Yingping.
“Mr. Yingping, you said you wanted to tell me something just now. Is it also related to the Emperor?”
Ningguang looked at Yingping who was seriously “examining the body”. She forced herself to suppress the anxiety in her heart, and asked with a calm look on the surface.
“That’s right, Miss Ningguang, the investigation has already yielded results. Let’s talk for a moment.”
“Miss Ying and Paimon, come over and listen.”
Yingping nodded to everyone, avoiding the staff and some Qianyan soldiers, and walked to the edge of the railing of the stands first.
Although Ningguang and the others had many doubts in their hearts, they still chose to follow.
“Okay, we shouldn’t be overheard at this distance.”
“Listen carefully, everyone. What I’m going to say next is very important.”
“As far as I know, on the continent of Teyvat, demons are very special and powerful beings.”
“Even the weakest demon, the power lost after death is definitely not something that ordinary people and land can bear.”
“And the Rock King is even more powerful.”
“After all, he was the winner of the Demon War. He is the first generation of Rock God, one of the seven rulers of the world, and is also called the God of War by you Liyue people.”
“If he was really killed silently by something, do you think Yujingtai would only make such a fuss?”
Ying Ping’s expression was solemn, and he told everyone all his thoughts.
“Demon God War, the Seven Rulers of the World…”
Yingmei murmured, she didn’t expect to hear these words again.
“You mean… the emperor is not dead yet?”
Ningguang’s eyes lit up, her voice was a little excited, and she thought of many things at once.
“If the God of Rock… is not dead, then how to explain the corpse he left behind?”
Paimon opened his eyes wide in surprise, she scratched her head and continued to ask.
“I checked it carefully.”
“The immortal ancestor’s magic molt is so well preserved, and there is no escaping life breath, external injuries or traces of battle, even the heart of the god is not in it.”
“This is too obvious a fake, in my opinion, it is simply a body made of the power of the God of Rock.’s empty shell. ”
“Of course, it is possible that there is an enemy that is so powerful that we cannot imagine.”
“He killed the emperor in an instant without any external injuries, took away the emperor’s divine heart, and suppressed the impact caused by the death of the demon god, but do you think it is possible?”
Ying Ping continued to explain while pretending to be thinking.
The reasons he explained were sufficient, and all the statements were consistent, which made everyone suddenly enlightened and had to be convinced.
“If, as you said, there was no enemy attack, and the emperor was really not dead, then why did he do this at the invitation ceremony?”
Ningguang breathed a sigh of relief, and her heart suddenly felt a lot more at ease, as if her backbone had returned.
She looked at Ying Ping with more appreciation.
“I don’t know about this, but the emperor must have his own deep meaning for doing this. ”
“My personal suggestion is not to spread the news that the emperor is still alive, and just wait and see what happens.”
“Of course, the decision-making power is not in my hands. Miss Ningguang, you decide what to do. I just told you the information I know.”
“If the situation really gets out of control and can’t be cleaned up, please don’t worry. I will stand by your side firmly and do my best for you.”
Yingping smiled gently.
“Thank you very much, Mr. Yingping. If you were not here, I would not know what to do.”
“When the situation here calms down, I will definitely invite you to the Qun Yu Pavilion and express my gratitude to you solemnly.”
Ningguang bowed to Yingping, her voice full of gratitude, and looked at Ying and Paimeng and said with a smile.
“Don’t thank me. This is all Mr. Yingping’s credit. After all, I am just an outsider and did nothing. ”
Ying shook her head gently, still very reserved at this moment.
“You can’t say that, Miss Ying.”
“Your status is also extremely noble, not to mention that you are Mr. Yingping’s friend, so you are fully qualified to be the distinguished guest of my Tianquan Star and ascend the Qunyu Pavilion together.”
Ningguang smiled neither servile nor arrogant, and while praising Ying and Paimeng, she secretly lifted up Yingping’s hand.
“It’s all for Liyue. Miss Ningguang is too polite. You must have a lot of things to do next, right?”
“There are many people here. If there is nothing for us to do for the time being, then we will say goodbye here first.”
Yingping smiled and said goodbye.
Then, he took Ying and Paimeng and left openly under the watchful eyes of the Qianyan Army.
“Huh, you are worthy of being a legendary adventurer called the Sword Saint. ”
“Let’s put aside his strong fighting power and personal charm.”
“This calmness, unique vision and meticulous mind are beyond the reach of ordinary people.”
“I am very glad that I won him over in advance. This is really the nextThe most correct move of chess. ”
Ningguang looked at Yingping’s departing back, and she sighed in her heart.
