Genshin Impact: While strolling around Teyvat, I was driven mad by a player.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"A person who has returned from the Cloud Realm."

Just then, Ningguang and the other two, Baiwen and Baishi, arrived.

They walked up to Qiu Nian and the other two.

"Ah, it's Ningguang!"

"Nice to meet you! We've prepared a gift for you, and we hope you like it!"

Paimon sized up the woman who looked noble and elegant, and said politely.

"Ms. Ningguang."

"This is a jade plaque that I carved. Please don't find it offensive."

Qiu Nian took out the black jade from before and handed it to Ning Guang.

"Thank you so much for this. I invited the three of you here, but it has gone to your troubles."

"You must be Mr. Qiu Nian."

Ningguang looked at Qiu Nian in front of her and smiled.

Just as her eyeliner had said, he was indeed young and handsome.

His knowledge was comparable to that of Mr. Zhongli, who knew everything.

Ningguang had met many talented young men, including many of her suitors.

But she had never seen a young man with such a temperament.

"This piece of jade looks like the piece of black jade that the owner of the jade shop auctioned a few days ago."

Ningguang looked at the exquisitely carved black jade in her hand and felt that it looked somewhat familiar.

"You mean this piece of black jade was auctioned?"

Upon hearing this, Ying asked with some curiosity.

"Yes, that's an astronomical price of eleven million Mora."

"I want to buy it, but it's already over its original price."

"However, this piece of black jade should not be the same piece that was auctioned off."

"Because if you want to process the raw materials that have been auctioned, it won't take more than a few days."

"But this piece of black jade that was carved by Mr. Qiu Nian seems to have originated from that piece of raw black jade."

Ningguang looked at the black jade in her hand and explained to Ying.

"Eleven million Mora!"

Paimon's eyes widened instantly upon hearing this.

When Ying heard the price, her eyes widened in shock.

My God, Qiu Nian actually has such a valuable piece of jade?!

They had only thought the jade was pretty; they never imagined it would be so valuable.

And why would Qiu Nian, who was penniless, possess such a valuable piece of jade?

Thinking of this, Ying and Paimon looked at Qiu Nian beside them.

Although the jade did not belong to them, their hearts were still bleeding.

"Ha ha..."

"I visited Liyue Harbor once before the Summoning Ceremony."

"The owner of Jie Cui Hang found the raw black jade in the rough stone."

"To thank me, he gave me a small portion."

"That small part was carved by me and became what it is today."

As if noticing Ying and Paimon's confusion, Qiu Nian chuckled and explained.

"So that's it."

"But you're practically penniless, and you still haven't sold this jade."

"I really don't know what to say about you..."

Paimon nodded upon hearing this, then looked at Qiu Nian in front of him and made a disdainful remark.

"I see."

"I never expected that Mr. Qiu Nian was also so knowledgeable about unpolished stones."

"Even the patterns carved on it are exceptionally exquisite."

Ningguang looked at Qiu Nian in front of her and felt very surprised.

...So poor they're practically penniless?

It seems the information also says that this gentleman was short of money.

They just moved into the old house over there in Jueyunjian.

Mr. Qiu Nian has such a high level of expertise in both rough stones and carving.

How could they be so poor?

"I was just lucky, I don't have any real expertise."

"I wonder if Miss Ningguang likes this gift?"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Nian shook her head slightly, then looked at Ning Guang in front of her and asked.

"Mr. Qiu Nian is too modest."

I really like this gift.

Ningguang placed one hand on her chest, looked at Qiu Nian in front of her, and smiled.

Chapter 31 War of the Demon Gods

"Qunyu Pavilion is very beautiful."

"This is the first time I've been to such a high place."

Ying looked around at the surroundings and commented with a smile.

"the first time?"

"Could the Jade Pavilion possibly be as tall as Sky Island?"

When Qiu Nian heard Ying's evaluation, he couldn't help but find it a little funny.

Ningguang smiled upon hearing this.

Then he took a step forward and walked ahead.

"This palace is suspended in the air, above all mountains, and from here you can clearly see the entire Liyue Harbor."

“I started saving up for its construction when I was young and learning how to do business.”

"After becoming the ruler of Tianquan, I invited top craftsmen to continuously expand the city..."

"Initially, it was only the size of a room, but now it can block out the real silver moon in the sky above Liyue."

"I believe that one day its shadow will loom over the seven kingdoms."

Ningguang raised her head, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and began to speak.

"Enveloping seven kingdoms..."

Paimon's expression turned somewhat strange upon hearing this.

That's far too ambitious.

"There are not many outsiders who are qualified to enter the Qunyu Pavilion."

"But the acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius has been corresponding with me and speaks highly of you."

"So, from the very first day you arrived in Liyue Harbor, I started laying down my spies..."

Ningguang looked at Ying and Paimon in front of her, crossed her arms, and said.

"what?!"

Paimon recoiled in surprise upon hearing this.

"Finally, when you headed to Wangshu Inn, I got a general idea of ​​your movements."

"Including this current guest of the Hall of Rebirth, Mr. Qiu Nian."

Ningguang looked at Qiu Nian beside her and continued to explain.

"Could it be Boss Philgoldette?"

"They're one of your people?!"

Paimon looked at Ningguang in front of him and asked incredulously.

"no."

"The entire Wangshu Inn is staffed by our people."

Ningguang shook her head slightly upon hearing this.

Then he said something that left Paimon speechless.

"Haha... I've known pretty much everything about your movements since then."

"I can get in with just my eyes and ears. I'm very interested in you, so it's only natural that I pay attention."

Ningguang chuckled as she looked at Paimon, and continued to explain.

"As far as Ms. Ningguang is concerned."

“It’s not difficult to do these things.”
