Chapter 116
"There is no need to hinder the development of worldly affairs. Regarding weapons and stigmata, we only need to strictly enforce laws to curb the malice of evildoers."
Morax said this, pondered for a moment, and continued:
"As for the research on weapon stigmata, it shall be stopped."
This was the first time he had issued such an absolute order since the end of the Demon God War.
Morax had been thinking about this matter since he decided to leave the island and change his position, and discovered the role and harm of Honkai energy.
If leaving the island and changing positions to test whether the Rock God must die is what Zhongli wants to do, then stopping the Liyue people from researching Honkai energy is what Morax wants to do.
"Emperor……"
"this"
"We understand!"
Some young people did not find this order of the Rock King strange, nor did they think there was anything wrong with it.
But some old people, as well as Qixing and Ganyu who often studied the Emperor's speech in the ceremony of inviting the immortals, all noticed something different... The Emperor has always pointed out the direction for the development of Liyue, and has never strictly prohibited anything.
But this is the order of the Emperor. Although everyone has doubts, that's all, and they won't say anything more.
When the recorder in charge of recording finished recording, Morax nodded.
"Next, the last thing. He said,"I'm sure you are all very curious about who this immortal is who is following me."
Everyone nodded silently.
"There is no legend about him in Liyue, he is not an immortal, but he is a friend of mine, a former demon god."
Yanlong turned his head, glanced at Lidao who was watching the show silently, sighed secretly, and said:
"I... have been in this world for six thousand years, and I am already very old. Today, the situation is turbulent and it is a time of great strife. I am afraid that I cannot protect Liyue."
Many people understood what he said and began to discuss without regard for etiquette.
"Silence!" Morax didn't care, so Ningguang had to wave her hand to maintain the situation. When everyone quieted down, Ningguang looked up at Yanlong with a complicated expression,"Emperor, please continue."
"I have thought about this for a long time and discussed it with my old friend Fengshen. Finally, a few days ago, I invited you to come and visit the Liyue Mountains and Rivers, and then we signed the contract."
Has Morax discussed this with Wendy? Of course not, but I will use his name as a way to pay off my past deeds. As he was talking, the golden light from the claws of the rock dragon shone brightly. When the light converged and gathered, a huge scroll appeared in front of the claws.
"This is the contract that I have agreed with you."Morax said, and with a thrust of his dragon claws, a scroll flew out and continued to expand and enlarge in the air.
Zhongli and Lidao signed two contracts. One was the one that was being shown now, about the exchange of the Rock God, which could be shown to everyone; the other was used to control this contract, including the exchange test and the transaction of the Heart of God, which the two knew could not be shown.
The scroll was enlarged until everyone could see it clearly, and every detail was clear and strict, and the most conspicuous was the last sentence:
【Morax voluntarily stepped down as the Rock God and handed it over to his friend Butis (disguised as a sleight of hand, originally an island) to voluntarily take over the position of Rock God, and Butis (an island) took on the responsibility of protecting and guiding Liyue.】
"Ganyu understands. The Qilin fairy beast took the lead in expressing its opinion.
"Tianquanxing understood. Ningguang knew that the contract had been concluded, and it was not something that a mortal like her could change. She did not feel uncomfortable, but just felt powerless.
"Tianshu star understands"
"Kaiyang Star……"
Then the seven stars expressed their opinions one by one, which seemed quite straightforward. Only one person was slow to speak and responded after a while. This person was naturally Yuheng Star - Keqing
"Yuhengxing understood."Keqing bowed her head and said,"This matter is too shocking. Keqing is a little dazed. I hope the emperor will forgive me."
Keqing was originally dissatisfied with the emperor's one-man show in Liyue. Now the emperor gave Liyue away with just one word. Naturally, she did not accept it.
But Keqing is not an unreasonable person. She knows what to do and what not to do. It is impossible to say that she is a hot-blooded teenager. In fact, she is like a shrew making trouble, talking loudly and questioning. That will only make people laugh. Delay for a while, and then apologize for being shocked. This is the best way.
Morax naturally understood what Keqing meant."Too shocking, a little dazed" was too euphemistic, but he didn't care about it. He had been watching the show on the side of the island for a long time.
"Butis."Morax waved his hand, took back the contract, turned around and looked at the white dragon, the contract condensed into a golden rock seal,"This is the ceremony of inviting the immortal, accept the contract, and the position of the rock god will be added to you, and then, you will be the host."
Kicking the ball (referring to the contract flying to the white dragon), Morax signaled Lidao to come out and introduce himself quickly, and the white dragon did not lose the chain, swam forward, opened its huge mouth and swallowed the rock seal transformed by the contract.
Morax:"The contract is made, those who break their promises shall be punished by extermination of their souls!"
The golden rock seal was concluded between the two dragons, representing the establishment of the contract, and golden divine power descended from the sky to wash the white dragon's body. After a moment, when the divine light dissipated, the white dragon appeared again, surrounded by spells
"The contract has been concluded. Those who break their promises shall be punished by having their souls destroyed!" Bai Long's voice does sound much younger than Yan Long's.
If Yan Long has an uncle voice, then Bai Long has a young man voice. But this is not the point. The point is——
"How is this possible... Old man……"
Keqing spoke in disbelief.
The moment she heard the voice, she remembered all the memories related to the voice. In fact, she did not forget, but she could not remember the other person's appearance and voice.
The immortal who always appeared to comfort her and accompany her when she was confused, worried, and tired was not an immortal, but the new Rock God.…��
At this moment, Keqing felt that the world was too unreal and absurd. But when she looked at the white dragon again, it seemed to be looking at her again, with a smile in its eyes.
Morax flew to a higher cloud layer to act as a background.
The white dragon was swimming, and suddenly it glowed with fluorescence, then the light enveloped the dragon and slowly converged. A fairy wearing a silver mask, white clothes, and long hair like a waterfall stood in the air.
"Hello everyone, Butis, this is my name."
Lidao added a special effect. Even at this moment, there was still a white dragon shadow surrounding him, and the entire Yujingtai seemed to have illusory fairy feathers falling. Lidao did not change his voice and appearance. He has always been that Lidao from the beginning, but Yu Duchen still blocked everyone's cognition.
Just like Keqing only heard and saw that he was an"old man", but did not think of"Lidao" at all.
"The Rock God Morax has worked hard for Liyue for six thousand years and has grown old. Life and death are inevitable. I believe you all know that even gods will perish. Everyone is like this, including me."
As Lidao spoke, he had already climbed down the stairs in mid-air, and with everyone's sight, he landed lightly on the ground with the momentum of shrinking the earth into an inch.
Standing in front of Keqing and Ganyu
"Morax has not left, and Liyue is still developing, so I hope everyone can encourage each other."
