While they were talking, everyone arrived downstairs at Wangshu Inn.
Ye Xi looked up into the distance and saw that the scale of this Wangshu Inn was more than five or six times larger than he had imagined.
Moreover, there were a great many people coming and going.
Judging by their attire and appearance, quite a few were Mondstadters, as well as adventurers active in both Mondstadt and Liyue.
Previously, Ye Xi had been very curious why the inn in the game looked just like a restaurant.
One had to know, an inn should not only be for eating but also for staying overnight.
Now he understood. If the living quarters were also included in the game, it would consume a significant amount of memory.
In short, don't ask; if you ask, it's to save memory.
In such a massive inn, if they didn't stuff in a few high-class guest rooms, it would be a disservice to this square footage.
He brought Keqing, Ganyu, and Cyno to the entrance of the inn together.
When the people around saw Keqing, they all cried out in alarm.
"Look quickly! It's the Yuheng Star!"
"What!? You mean that one from the Liyue Qixing!?"
"That's right! It's Lady Yuheng!"
"My heavens, that's a big shot!"
"Why would the Yuheng Star come here!?"
"Wait a minute, why is Lady Keqing sharing an umbrella with a man!?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone realized that Keqing was actually sharing a single umbrella with a man!
Moreover, it wasn't that there were no umbrellas available!
Because they could clearly see that Keqing obviously still had a closed umbrella in her hand!
At this, the crowd went into an uproar.
"Hey, having an umbrella but not using it and having no umbrella are two different matters!"
"Damn it, what is that brat's status! On what basis can he be so close to Lady Yuheng!"
"Do you know the rumors from yesterday? It is said that Lady Yuheng has a man!"
"What——!? Bastard, where did you hear that rumor! You are not allowed to slander Lady Yuheng!"
"Who said it was a rumor! I heard this from the Millelith in the city! Would the Millelith spread rumors?"
"Impossible! I don't know how many wealthy young masters in Liyue Harbor are pursuing Lady Keqing, and Lady Keqing hasn't looked at a single one of them!"
"I also heard that Lady Keqing didn't return home all night, and when she came back, she had even changed into new clothes!"
"Ahhhhh! Shut up! Don't say anymore! I won't believe it!"
"..."
Under everyone's gaze, Ye Xi took Keqing into the establishment.
The waiter of Wangshu Inn hurriedly came up to inquire: "Lady Keqing, you actually came! Is there something the matter?"
"En, nothing urgent. Take us up."
"Alright, my Lady, this way please!"
The waitress hurriedly led the way, arriving at the mechanism for going upstairs in Wangshu Inn.
This should be considered an elevator.
It didn't use electricity but used a combination of ropes and pulleys.
Stepping onto the mechanism, the wooden platform quickly rose up.
Arriving at the high point of Wangshu Inn, the view before their eyes suddenly opened up wide.
The field of vision here was extremely beautiful.
To the east, one could see the beautiful scenery of Dragonspine; to the west, one could see the cloud-shrouded Jueyun Karst and Mt. Aocang.
Far to the south was the Mt. Tianheng range near Liyue Harbor, and to the north were the mountains of Qingce Village and Wuwang Hill.
Living here, if placed in the real world, would be considered a mountain-view room no matter what.
Entering the inn, the boss at the counter, Verr Goldet, was full of astonishment.
"Lady Keqing? Why have you come? Are there any special arrangements?"
In fact, everyone in the entire Wangshu Inn was intelligence personnel arranged by the Liyue Qixing.
Whether it was the waiter or the waitress, the shopkeeper or the boss.
They all served the Liyue Qixing.
So seeing Keqing, they assumed there was some important mission.
Keqing shook her head and said, "No, we are just looking for the Conqueror of Demons. Is he at Wangshu Inn?"
"We do not inquire about Xiao's itinerary, but if he is here, he will generally be on the roof."
"You can go there and take a look."
Hearing Verr Goldet's words, Keqing nodded.
"Master Ye Xi, then let's go upstairs."
As she spoke, Keqing led the way for Ye Xi in front.
This action made Verr Goldet and the shopkeeper Huai'an on the side extremely surprised.
"What is that young master's background, that he would actually let Lady Keqing lead the way!"
Huai'an carefully sized up Ye Xi's back, but in his impression, there were absolutely no clues regarding Ye Xi.
Usually, he would return to Liyue Harbor to report intelligence to the Liyue Qixing, but he had never seen Ye Xi's figure appear beside the Liyue Qixing.
"I don't know. It's just that Secretary Ganyu is actually here too."
"That person in the back with the Eye of God, his dressing looks like a Sumeru person."
"Could it be he came from Sumeru?"
Verr Goldet was someone very good at seeing a person's background through observation.
But she couldn't see any clues on Ye Xi at all.
"In short, we only interface with Mondstadt. We will ignore matters of Sumeru."
Upstairs.
At the top of Wangshu Inn, there was a gigantic tree.
Unlike Sumeru City, beneath Wangshu Inn was a high mountain peak; the entire inn was built against the mountain.
Only the top floor of the inn was built upon the tree.
Ye Xi remembered that Xiao-bao was very aloof, daydreaming on the roof of Wangshu Inn every day, or otherwise sitting on the trunk of the ancient tree, gazing into the distance.
So as soon as he came up, he raised his head to look around for Xiao's figure.
"Conqueror of Demons, are you home?"
"I am here."
Ye Xi heard a cold voice by his ear, but looking all around, he couldn't see Xiao himself. It was very strange: "Could the Conqueror please show himself!"
Xiao: ...
"I am right in front of you. Please look down."
"Uh?"
Ye Xi lowered his head and discovered a handsome young man with an ethereal, immortal air appearing in front of him.
His looks and temperament were undeniable, it was just this height...
Ye Xi himself was very tall, upwards of 1.8 meters, while Xiao did not even reach his shoulder.
So looking at Xiao, he could only lower his head slightly.
"You really are True Monarch Look-Down-to-See..."
As soon as these words came out, the small faces of Keqing and Ganyu turned pale with fright.
One had to know, what the Conqueror of Demons was most taboo about was others commenting on his height!
Keqing even wanted to drag Ye Xi and run away!
But thinking about it carefully, Ye Xi was so formidable that he didn't seem to be afraid.
Hearing Ye Xi's sigh, Xiao's eyebrows twitched.
He just wanted to say 'Disrespectful to the Adepti', but then he remembered the words the Lord of Geo had just transmitted to him.
That's right.
Just now, Zhongli used sound transmission to tell Xiao about Ye Xi.
For example, the matter of beating up Azhdaha...
Hearing this news, Xiao was shocked.
That was Azhdaha!
If one didn't strike with lethal intent, the difference between him and the Lord of Geo wasn't that big!
Back then, in order to suppress Azhdaha, the Lord of Geo and the Adepti joined hands to seal him away.
Yet Ye Xi actually subdued Azhdaha all by himself; it was simply inconceivable!
To tell the truth, he currently had no way to see any powerful strength from the man before his eyes.
A person who didn't even have an Eye of God, what power could he have?
If the Lord of Geo hadn't told him in advance, he would absolutely never believe that the person before his eyes was strong like a monster!
Ye Xi got straight to the point: "Conqueror of Demons, coming to your side this time is actually for the sake of the karma on your body."
Xiao: ! ! !
