Lumine and Stelle chatted for a while, roughly understanding how Stelle came here and how he hooked up with Cloud Retainer, then prepared to leave.
It wasn't that she didn't want to stay with Stelle longer, but the situation was urgent, and her suspicions hadn't been cleared yet.
Moreover, that Adeptus just now said she was going to suppress Liyue Harbor. It seemed like a joke, and this matter was likely mostly suspicious.
But Lumine was still a little worried. If she didn't handle this matter well, leading to the Adepti ganging up on Liyue Harbor, it would be troublesome.
What's more, only three Adepti had been notified so far; there were still a few left to inform.
"So, you're going to Wangshu Inn?" Stelle raised an eyebrow, listening to their next plans.
When he stayed at Wangshu Inn, he felt something was off. So the person secretly watching him was an Adeptus.
It seemed to be a male Adeptus, otherwise he wouldn't have just looked twice and left.
"Mm, there's a teleport waypoint there, and we don't need to stay too long. We can come back soon," Lumine nodded.
This finally showed the convenience of the teleport waypoint. Otherwise, running from Mt. Aocang to Wangshu Inn would take who knows how many days.
"I see. You two should also be careful, especially... I don't think that Fatui Harbinger named Childe is that kindhearted," Stelle said to Lumine.
He had seen that young man from afar that day, but he instinctively felt he couldn't be trusted, even without having met him.
After all, he was a Fatui Harbinger. He hadn't seen the Lady, but he had seen another one, who wore a hood and looked arrogant.
Anyway, they probably weren't easy to get along with. When dealing with such people, one must be careful enough.
"Don't worry, I know," Lumine naturally hadn't let down her guard against Childe.
After all, that guy suddenly appeared. Originally, she had a legitimate identity given by Ningguang and wouldn't have fallen to the level of a fugitive.
If that guy hadn't directly dragged her into the mess, she probably wouldn't have had to work so hard.
"You also take care... and learn to refuse, don't ruin your body," Lumine said to Stelle with hesitation.
That Adeptus was so powerful. Although there was the boost from the food Stelle made, even so, Stelle shouldn't have been unable to get out of bed.
So Lumine, for once, was worried about Stelle in this regard.
"I know, yesterday was an accident," Stelle said awkwardly.
"Yes, Lumine, don't worry about Stelle. How could anyone accidentally fall from such a high mountain twice?" Paimon nodded in agreement.
"..." Lumine looked at Paimon helplessly, saying nothing.
"Then I'll go first. See you in Liyue Harbor later."
"Mm."
If Paimon weren't here, Lumine would really want to leave a kiss on Stelle's lips before leaving.
What a pity, she could only save it for now and get it back from Stelle later. Then, which of Stelle's lips she would kiss would be uncertain.
Lumine clenched her fist. Considering this, she had to resolve these matters as quickly as possible.
"I'll see you off," Shenhe also slowly got up and said to the two.
"No need, Shenhe, we can just use the teleport waypoint to leave."
"I'll see you off."

"Sigh, it's a pity I can't move now, and I can't be with them," Stelle slowly sighed.
I really didn't expect one dehydration to have such powerful after-effects. It might take some time to fully recover.
What if the crisis in Liyue Harbor is already resolved by then?
While that would be good, as a trailblazer, it wouldn't make sense to be completely uninvolved in such a major event.
"It's okay. With Master here, things will be resolved quickly," Shenhe returned to the room and heard Stelle's sigh.
"It will definitely be resolved. Although there are many suspicious points in this incident, if Rex Lapis is not dead, he must be secretly watching everything that is happening," Stelle nodded.
He just didn't know the purpose of Rex Lapis doing this, why he would specifically stage a false death.
Was it to lure out enemies hidden in the dark? Or did he have some other plan...?
But no matter what, if it truly came to a dead end, as Liyue's deity, he definitely wouldn't hide in the shadows.
The reason Lumine was still busy with this matter was precisely because of this.
Since it was impossible to question Rex Lapis at the Please Immortal Ceremony, the only option was to resolve the current crisis and then find a way to meet the Rex Lapis.
Ann wanted to help Lumine, which was why she came to Mt. Aocang to ask Shenhe's master for help, but she didn't expect things to turn out this way.
"Shenhe, when I recover, we'll go down the mountain too... okay?" Ann turned to Shenhe and said, but her expression instantly froze.
Because Shenhe was unhurriedly taking off her clothes, her impressive figure was immediately revealed before Ann's eyes.
After all, Shenhe's clothes were very simple; taking them off would definitely leave her completely naked.
"She-Shenhe, you're not going to... No, you can't!" Ann couldn't help but shrink back.
She couldn't withstand Shenhe's attack now; if something else happened at this moment, who knew when she would recover.
She had already satisfied Shenhe with her mouth once today; surely, it wouldn't happen again??
"Don't worry, I just want to take a nap with you," Shenhe walked to the bed, pulled back the covers, and slipped in.
"I don't remember you having a habit of sleeping naked, mmph..." Ann was directly embraced by Shenhe, and the words she wanted to say were blocked by her large chest.
"With you by my side, I feel much more at ease," Shenhe slowly closed her eyes and whispered softly.
Shenhe certainly wouldn't disregard Ann's body... Of course, kissing and such were fine.
Ever since she had 'done' with Ann, she found that she no longer needed to suppress the malevolent energy in her body with the red rope as much.
Simply put, Ann had replaced the function of that red rope.
Given that, the most direct contact would naturally have the best effect.
Those nightmares, as long as Ann was by her side, she should never have them again, right?
