"Let's go."
After giving instructions to Paimon, Han Feng turned to Ningguang.
As for opening the shop—
there was no rush.
A trip to the Jade Chamber wouldn't take long, and he could open the shop after returning.
Otherwise, if someone finished reading a manga while he was gone, they wouldn't be able to receive their reward.
"Please."
Ningguang smiled and led the way.
For the manga shop's customers, wherever they entered from would also be where they exited.
But Han Feng had no such restriction.
If he wanted, he could even connect Mondstadt and Liyue directly.
However, to maintain order in the shop, Han Feng never allowed such convenience.
Soon after the two walked out of the store—they appeared in Liyue.
"What a familiar view."
Looking at the architecture around him, Han Feng sighed softly.
Although he could never return home, seeing Liyue's scenery still gave him a sense of nostalgia.
"Boss Han, have you been to Liyue before?"
Seeing his nostalgic expression, Ningguang asked curiously.
For someone as mysterious as him, she had countless questions in her heart.
Where did Boss Han come from?
What had he experienced?
Why were his manga so miraculous?
But because of his mysterious nature, she usually kept these questions to herself.
Just now, however, she couldn't help asking one.
"I haven't been here before. I've just seen scenery like this before."
Han Feng shook his head slightly.
This was indeed his first time visiting Liyue.
Of course, his experiences from the game didn't count.
"I see…"
Ningguang thought quietly.
She roughly understood.
Perhaps Boss Han's homeland resembled Liyue in some way.
Even their names seemed similar.
After a brief pause, Ningguang revealed a stunning smile.
"Then welcome to Liyue, Boss Han. Today, allow me to act as your host."
"Thank you for the trouble."
Han Feng nodded with a faint smile.
Then the two walked out of the alley together.
At the alley entrance.
The Millelith captain was still guarding the area.
He was normally responsible for this location.
Yesterday, however, because of the "Rex Lapis assassination," he had been temporarily reassigned.
After learning that Rex Lapis was actually safe, Ningguang ordered him back.
"Greetings, Lady Ningguang!"
Seeing Ningguang approaching, the Millelith captain quickly saluted respectfully.
At the same time, he curiously looked at the man behind her.
He hadn't seen this person enter the bookstore earlier.
Could this man have come from the store itself?
"Mm."
Ningguang nodded calmly.
She was respectful toward Han Feng.
But toward others, she remained the elegant and noble Tianquan of the Liyue Qixing.
"Boss Han, please."
Ningguang stepped aside respectfully.
She had no intention of introducing him to Millelith.
They weren't on the same level.
There was no need for contact.
After all—had anyone ever seen Ningguang introduce Rex Lapis or the Adepti to ordinary Millelith soldiers?
"Alright."
Han Feng nodded.
The two then slowly left the alley.
After they departed, the Millelith soldiers began whispering.
"Did you hear that? Lady Ningguang called him Boss Han!"
"I heard it. That must mean he's the owner of Solace Book House."
"This is the first time I've seen Lady Ningguang treat someone so respectfully. She even used the word 'please'."
"That young man must have an extraordinary identity."
"Honestly… the two of them actually look quite compatible."
The soldiers couldn't help discussing quietly.
Normally their discipline was excellent.
But the scene they had just witnessed was simply too shocking.
"Silence! Maintain your post!"
The captain suddenly barked.
However—
even he was extremely shocked inside.
He never expected that mysterious shop owner to be so young.
And unlike the ordinary soldiers, he knew more.
For example—the terrifying sword intent from earlier had been unleashed by that very man.
A figure of such terrifying power was not someone they should discuss casually.
Their duty was simply to guard the area.
"Yes, sir!"
The soldiers immediately straightened up.
However, as the captain watched Han Feng and Ningguang walk away, he muttered softly:
"Still… they weren't wrong."
"Boss Han and Lady Ningguang really do look quite compatible."
One was the Tianquan of Liyue, powerful and unimaginably wealthy.
The other was the mysterious and powerful Boss Han.
In terms of appearance or status, the two matched well.
In fact—
the captain even had a faint feeling.
Perhaps…
Lady Ningguang might actually be the one reaching up.
Meanwhile—
Han Feng and Ningguang casually toured part of Liyue.
With Ningguang's careful explanations, Han Feng gained a much more vivid understanding of the city.
It was no longer just the vague outline he knew from the game.
"Alright. Next, I'll take Boss Han to the Jade Chamber."
Ningguang smiled.
"I've been looking forward to it."
Han Feng smiled lightly.
As one of the most famous strategic weapons in Genshin Impact, he definitely wanted to see it himself.
Soon, under Ningguang's guidance, he arrived at the Jade Chamber.
"Welcome, Boss Han, to the Jade Chamber!"
Baiwen, Baishi, and Baixiao stood in a row and greeted him respectfully.
Even the Jade Chamber itself seemed to express its welcome.
Clearly it also sensed that the man before it was extraordinary.
Han Feng nodded and looked around with curiosity.
"Not bad. The area is much larger."
He praised it.
Previously, the Jade Chamber could only be considered a floating pavilion.
But now—
it was practically a floating island.
While it couldn't cover the entire Seven Nations,
it could certainly block out a large section of Liyue's sky.
The only regret was—its power came from a fake Peace Star.
Before long, the effect would disappear.
As the one who had given out the reward, Han Feng could clearly sense this.
Ningguang also knew.
That was why she intended to use this remaining time—
not only to entertain Boss Han—but also to smash another god with it.
