True Lord Liu Yun Borrowing Wind led the conversation to Wangshu Inn, where Xiao was.
It's just... how could she subtly explain that Xiao possessed the adeptal arts that Bosacius cultivated?
'Hmm... Forget it, it depends on fate.'
'All cultivation emphasizes fate. When the fate arrives, one will naturally be able to learn adeptal arts.'
'My guidance has been given. Whether you can learn adeptal arts or not depends on your own fortune.'
True Lord Liu Yun Borrowing Wind thought to herself, then stopped thinking about it. She came to Liyue Harbor this time not just because of this Raiden Shogun.
"Wangshu Inn? Thank you for the reminder, Adeptus. It just so happens that going to Wangshu Inn tomorrow is on my itinerary."
Shiki said, gently squeezing Ayaka's hand, as she hadn't told the girl about this yet.
"Oh? It seems your taste is good, to think of the same place as this adeptus."
True Lord Liu Yun Borrowing Wind praised her upon hearing this. Of course, whether it was self-praise was hard to say.
"Long time no see, Traveler. By your appearance, are you busy for the Moonchase Festival?" True Lord Liu Yun Borrowing Wind asked.
"Uh... you could say that?"
Traveler was also a bit unsure. Investigating the true identity of the God of the Hearth should count, right?
"Ha, I didn't expect even the famous Traveler to participate in the Moonchase Festival. It seems this year's theme is extraordinary!"
"'Food and Mountains and Rivers?'" Xiangling said.
"Precisely." True Lord Liu Yun Borrowing Wind nodded: "During the Moonchase Festival, it is a great time to enjoy delicious food."
"Seeing you organize the festival so vibrantly, this adeptus naturally cannot be idle."
"When it comes to cuisine and cooking, this adeptus's skill and artistry are second to none! My appearance in this world is to let everyone see this adeptus's new Mechanical Culinary Divine Machine!"
As she spoke, True Lord Liu Yun Borrowing Wind puffed out her chest, her words filled with pride and confidence.
What is this called? This is the accumulation of age. After thousands of years, how could her cooking skills not be good?
Raiden Ei: Inazuma's lightning, also eternity!
"Mechanical Culinary... what?" Xiangling was a bit confused.
"It's the Mechanical Culinary Divine Machine."
"Mechanical what Divine Machine?"
"Mechanical Culinary Divine Machine!"
"What Culinary Divine Machine?"
"Mechanical Culinary Divine Machine..."
"Mechanical what..."
"Enough! You girl, are you making fun of this adeptus?"
True Lord Liu Yun Borrowing Wind exclaimed in response. What was wrong with this child? She was quite observant just now, but now she was asking the name repeatedly like an idiot.
"Hmph! This Mechanical Culinary Divine Machine is this adeptus's new invention. When the time comes, I will naturally open your eyes."
"Especially you, Traveler."
"You have some attainments in the culinary arts. This adeptus hopes that at that time, you can come to the dojo to cheer for this adeptus and add splendor."
"Is this a direct invitation?" Paimon asked with very low emotional intelligence.
As expected, after her words fell, True Lord Liu Yun Borrowing Wind snorted coldly.
"Hmph, it's enough to know it internally, why say it out loud?"
"My message has been delivered. It is not advisable to stay long in this marketplace. Await this adeptus's news, and we will meet there!"
After speaking, True Lord Liu Yun Borrowing Wind flapped her wings and flew into the sky, disappearing within a few breaths.
"Wow, what a woman who comes and goes like the wind... oh no, an immortal... no, an immortal bird..." Paimon exclaimed.
"Heh, after all, she is an adeptus who controls the Anemo element," Shiki said.
Shiki always felt a sense of déjà vu during the conversation between Xiangling and True Lord Liu Yun Borrowing Wind, as if... she had seen it somewhere before?
Ah, that's right! It's you! Old Man Ma Dongmei!
Shiki remembered. As for why the other party recommended her to Wangshu Inn, she didn't think much of it, because the scenery there was indeed very good.
"By the way, I heard you say just now that you're going to Wangshu Inn tomorrow, right?" Paimon asked.
"That's right. To be honest, I met with Mr. Zhongli, the consultant of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, last night. We had a pleasant conversation and agreed to meet at Wangshu Inn tomorrow at noon."
"Therefore, I hope Traveler can give us a ride tomorrow."
Shiki revealed part of the reason. Those who understood would naturally understand, and those who didn't needed no explanation.
Upon hearing this, Traveler immediately understood. Morax was the Geo Archon, and Shiki was the Raiden Shogun of Inazuma. They must have reached some contract, which was why they were going to Wangshu Inn.
"Of course, no problem! Leave it to me!" Traveler patted his small chest.
"Okay, then tomorrow at noon, I'll trouble you to come to Sangenjaya."
It's not that Sangenjaya was a particularly good place, but it was very convenient.
Since the storytelling area was located outside, Traveler could see her as soon as he landed from the Waypoint.
Secondly, Shiki and Ayaka would not be staying in Liyue Harbor at night; they still had to return to Inazuma.
Choosing Sangenjaya as the location meant they wouldn't have to walk too far.
From Kamisato Estate to Sangenjaya, the total journey was no more than ten minutes, which was very convenient.
"Eh? What are you all doing gathered here? The adeptus has already left."
"Keqing is back."
"Yes, Ryougi Young Miss is here too. Sorry to keep you waiting. The recipe was written by my grandfather in his notes, which aren't convenient to carry out, so I copied it down." Keqing said, taking out the recipe from her Vision.
"But Xiangling… this recipe was seen by my grandfather in ancient texts. Those books are too old and usually have some missing parts… So, there are a few omissions in this recipe. Is that alright?"
"Oh, oh! Let me see it first!"
Xiangling took the recipe. The ingredients gave her a sense of déjà vu, but there were simply too many missing parts, and she couldn't recall them for a while.
"I'll go study it carefully later!"
"Mm, I'm counting on you."
Shiki subtly shifted her body, glancing at the so-called ancient recipe.
However… the more she looked, the more she felt this thing resembled steamed buns?
Steamed buns, four for a Mora?
That demonic advertising jingle from the old woman echoed in her mind again.
Emmm…
She gently shook her head to clear the demonic sound from her mind. Just then, a somewhat familiar voice came from a distance.
"Um… everyone is here…"
Ganyu walked over with a nervous expression. When she saw that there were also two Inazuman people, her heart grew even more bitter.
'It's over. Could it be that those things are going to spread abroad?'
"That voice is…" Paimon was still wondering, but Aether directly blurted out: "Ganyu!"
"It's me. Sorry to interrupt you all. I was just buying something nearby and couldn't help but come over to take a look when I noticed the commotion…"
"Excuse me, have you seen my master, Cloud Retainer?"
