"Lord Phanes, she..."
Zhongli looked towards Celestia with an enlightened expression.
A long time ago, he had sensed subtle changes happening on Celestia.
"So that's how it is. Whether it's our world or the Teyvat of a parallel timeline..."
"Celestia has undergone immense changes."
"It's just that..."
Even with Zhongli's vast knowledge, he, like others, was curious about Su Bai from the Teyvat of a parallel timeline, who was the fifth Descender.
He arrived in Teyvat later than Lumine, yet he became the controller of Teyvat's order and rules.
"Unless his own power far surpassed the world's power, and upon arriving in Teyvat, he didn't have much contact with the mortal realm, but instead chose to step onto Celestia first..."
"Did he take over Teyvat...?"
Chapter 5: One Mountain Cannot Hold Two Tigers, Unless One is Male and One is Female
In the Parallel Teyvat World, Su Bai, as the fifth Descender and the Heavenly Principles governing the order of the Teyvat World,
his appearance quickly attracted the attention of the people in the Prime Teyvat World.
In the light screen:
"Lumine's reflection shimmered in Su Bai's deep eyes."
"She was diligently helping Dvalin cleanse the corrupted blood within his body. The suffering Dvalin's breathing was much more stable than before."
"'Lord Su Bai, as you can see, the Damselette over there, who is currently cleansing the Anemo Dragon of Abyssal Power, is the fourth Descender, not recorded by Irminsul.'"
"Asmodeus's attitude was extremely respectful."
"Before this, Su Bai, who had gained control over the Teyvat World's order, had already understood the general situation of the Teyvat World through the records in Irminsul."
"Aether, Lumine's brother who arrived at the same time as her, had his status slightly diminished due to the Abyss, thus being recorded by Irminsul."
"Anyone or any monster recorded by Irminsul has their everything controlled within Teyvat's order and rules."
"Currently, besides Su Bai, the fifth Descender who recently arrived in Teyvat, the only person not yet recorded by Irminsul is Lumine."
"'I will go and kill her now. That way, there will be no problems.'"
"Asmodeus had barely finished speaking when a graceful leg had already stepped out."
This scene instantly made the audience widen their eyes, unable to believe their eyes and ears.
In the neighboring Teyvat World, Lumine was cleaning Dvalin's corrupted blood.
At the very least, she was helping the creatures of Teyvat.
Asmodeus, as the maintainer of order and rules, actually opened her mouth and wanted to kill Lumine to eliminate future troubles?
This... this was too unreasonable!
Abyss Order.
Aether's gentle gaze instantly turned sharp.
"Hmph!"
"The gods on Celestia are indeed a bunch of good-for-nothing scoundrels."
"They must be worried that Lumine, who comes from outside the world, possesses the power to resist the Teyvat World, so they want to strike before Lumine recovers her full strength."
"What a bunch of despicable scoundrels, Your Highness!" Enjou quickly echoed.
"Alas, it seems the princess of the neighboring world is about to face big trouble."

Paimon: "Eh!!!"
Paimon: "They... they actually want to kill Lumine... How hateful, Lumine is clearly helping the creatures of Teyvat."
Jean: "This... why would the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles want to kill Lumine...?"
Dainsleif: "Hmph!"
Dainsleif: "Creatures recorded by Irminsul are almost powerless to resist Teyvat's order. To break free from these shackles, one must acquire power from outside the world to deny the world. I think the Teyvat of the neighboring world is the same as the Prime Teyvat World we are in."
Dainsleif: "They are worried that Lumine's existence will overturn Celestia's rule over Teyvat."
Venti: "Wow! This young man seems to know a lot of things. You're really bold to speak like that..."
Zhongli: "..."
Aether: "Heh heh, the gods on Teyvat's Celestia are nothing but a bunch of cowards."
Amber: "You are... could you be Lumine's...?"
Lumine: "Brother?"
Lumine was stunned.
She had originally intended to hide Aether's identity as the Prince of the Abyss Order, but who would have thought he would jump out and expose himself?
Lumine clicked on Aether's profile, and it clearly stated "Prince of the Abyss Order."
Lumine: "..."
Lisa: "I really didn't expect this, Lumine's long-sought brother is actually the Prince of the Abyss Order?"
Diluc: "So you were the mastermind behind controlling Dvalin back then?"
Kaeya: "And then the brother's plan against Mondstadt was foiled by his sister. Such a thing is truly incredible."
Aether: "..."
Kamisato Ayato: "I see. Lumine's brother becoming a member of the Abyss makes him Celestia's number one enemy. Perhaps because of you, Lumine is being targeted by Celestia."
Neuvillette: "It should be at the behest of the fifth Descender named Su Bai, after all, both he and Lumine are Descenders."
Mountain Shaper: "There's an old Liyue saying: 'One mountain cannot hold two tigers,' which I presume is what the person above meant."
Cloud Retainer: "There's no point in guessing now. I think we'll know the result soon."
At this moment, everyone in Teyvat stared intently at the screen, afraid of missing any detail.
After all, this was Celestia taking action against a Descender, and the Lumine in the image was identical to the Lumine they knew.
For the people of Teyvat, they had not had contact with Su Bai; emotionally, they leaned more towards Lumine, who had always helped them before.
Even if this Lumine was the Lumine from the neighboring Parallel Teyvat World.
Moreover, if Asmodeus really intended to kill Lumine on the spot, she would certainly not spare Jean and Diluc who were present.
The only one who might have survived was Barbatos, one of The Seven Archons formerly appointed by Celestia.
"'Wait, Asmodeus...'"
"Su Bai's voice suddenly rang out beside her. Asmodeus, who had just taken a step, hadn't had time to react when her slender waist was embraced by Su Bai's hand."
"'I just sensed the strength of the fourth Descender; she is very weak.'"
"'To me, she poses no threat whatsoever.'"
"'Besides, if you were to strike at her here, would you also deal with the acting Grand Master of the Knights and the red-haired boy?'"
"'Wouldn't that make me lose face in front of Barbatos?'"
"'It would make me, the new Heavenly Principles, seem petty. How would I gain their respect then?'"
"'We have more important things to do; we don't have time to waste on her.'"
"'For now, let Lumine, the fourth Descender, wander around Teyvat and play. It doesn't matter anyway.'"
"..."
Chapter 6: The Tyrant of the Parallel World, Even More Ruthless Than Phanes
Seeing Su Bai and Asmodeus depart,
the audience in Teyvat finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But soon, they became tense again.
They wondered what Su Bai's so-called more important matters were.
"[Viewing Chatroom]"
Lisa: "Listening to Su Bai, he doesn't seem to have any intention of harming Lumine, who is also a Descender."
Kamisato Ayato: "I always feel that the fifth Descender of the neighboring Teyvat World seems to look down on Lumine's strength."
Yae Miko: "Oh my, is it because the power gap is too large that the fifth Descender directly became the Heavenly Principles of that world?"
Aether: "Tch, I see that the light around Lumine is green, meaning she just came into contact with Anemo power. Let him talk like that after Lumine recovers her full strength."
Lumine: "This feeling of being looked down upon is really annoying! Fifth Descender Su Bai, are you there? Come out and fight me one-on-one if you dare."
Ningguang: "I just tried searching, but there's no one named Su Bai in this chatroom."
