Chapter 436 Topaz Knows About Aventurine Stone? Ningguang: Something Isn't Right!
"Is Miss Yukong's current condition really outside of Luo Feng's expectations?"
Ningguang asked curiously.
She had also experienced the Dragon Transformation Method performed by Mr. Luo Feng,so she was even more curious about Ms. Yukong's current situation than others.
"Yes, Yukong's current situation is indeed unexpected."
"I originally thought that Yukong would at most retain the characteristics of an ordinary Vidyadhara."
"Unexpectedly, she retained the characteristics of a Dragon Lord. But she currently does not possess Dragon Lord Power.
"Mr. Luo Feng nodded and said."
Perhaps Ms. Yukong has retained her growth potential."
"After a series of training sessions, perhaps she can still display the power she showed when competing with General Jing Yuan before."
Dr. Ratio said tentatively.
"An excellent deduction, worthy of Professor Ratio."
"It seems that for a period of time, I will still need to observe your condition, Yukong."
"Please do not refuse."Mr. Luo Feng said.
"This..."
Ms. Yukong pursed her lips, glancing at Qingni out of the corner of her eye.
She was a little hesitant, after all, her body had been seen by Mr. Luo Feng before.And this matter was also known by Qingni.
If she still needed to interact with Mr. Luo Feng for a long time in the future, wouldn't it be easy for Qingni to misunderstand?
Just as Ms. Yukong was feeling hesitant, Qingni proactively stepped forward.
"Mom, since your physical condition is still in a relatively special stage."
"Let Mr. Luo Feng continue to observe for a while."
"It's like how you can't just see a doctor halfway and then not continue to consult them."
Qingni said.
"This... alright."
Ms. Yukong was only hesitant initially, but now hearing you say this, she could only nod to Mr. Luo Feng.
Although she always felt that when Qingni said these words, the look in her eyes towards herself seemed a little off.
"Then it's decided, let's go, Yukong."
Mr. Luo Feng said.
"Huh? Where are we going, Luo Feng?"
Ms. Yukong asked strangely.
"My experiment here is over, you should be returning to the Sky-Faring Commission immediately, right."
"It just so happens that I still need to observe you for a while, so I'll go with you."
"Also, I didn't have a chance to visit the Sky-Faring Commission before."
"I heard that you seem to have a former Trailblazer there."
"As the conductor of the Astral Express, I should go and meet him."
Mr. Luo Feng said.Although the former Trailblazer Yanning in the game was just a common NPC,in reality, he is a genuine former Trailblazer.
Since he had already come to the Luofu, Mr. Luo Feng felt it would be somewhat regrettable not to have a chat.
"This... alright. I should also return the phone I borrowed from him."
Ms. Yukong sighed and said.
Since Mr. Luo Feng had said so much, she naturally couldn't refuse him.
Mr. Luo Feng smiled with satisfaction, and after leaving Cocolia to guide Dr. Ratio towards Herta and the others, he followed Ms. Yukong and Qingni away.
"In that case, we will also leave first."
"If there's a chance, we'll see each other again later."
"Also, I hope everyone from the Astral Express crew and the two from the Company have a pleasant time on the Luofu."
Seeing Mr. Luo Feng, Ms. Yukong, and Qingni leave, General Jing Yuan naturally had no intention of staying, and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight with Yanqing.
[Lumine: I didn't expect there to be a Trailblazer on the Luofu, and he happens to work at the Sky-Faring Commission on the Xianzhou.]
[Beidou: Yes, Luo Feng mentioned the Watchmaker before, and now there's a Sky-Faring Commission employee.It feels like no matter where Luo Feng's Astral Express goes, they always encounter some former Astral Express Trailblazer.]
[Kaveh: This shows that the former Astral Express was a large organization with many Trailblazer.]
[Kaeya: This is normal. The Astral Express, which symbolizes Trailblaze and adventure, is enough to attract quite a lot of people who like adventure stories to join.]
[Bennett: Mhm, mhm, I wish I could join too. Wait, my luck is so bad, if I join the Astral Express, would I bring trouble to Luo Feng?]
[Lisa: Don't worry too much, Bennett. With Luo Feng's ability, your luck won't affect him or the Astral Express.]
[Alice: Indeed, ultimately, a person's luck is somewhat related to their environment, or rather, to the Planet they live on.When you leave your home Planet, your luck might change.]
[Bennett: Is... is that true?]
[Alice: It's just a possibility, don't get too happy too soon.]
[Bennett: Even so, I want to give it a try!]
" Luo Feng, General Jing Yuan, and March 7th, they've all left."
"Next, what are your plans?"
Yae Miko turned around and smiled at Morax, Neuvillette, and the others.
"Since there's nothing left here, naturally we should cherish the time and enjoy this trip."
Neuvillette said.
Morax: "Indeed."
Mona, Hu Tao, and the others also nodded, clearly sharing the same thoughts as Morax and Neuvillette.
"In that case, let's leave here first as well."
Yae Miko smiled, glancing at Dr. Ratio and Topaz who were talking to Cocolia.
"I just don't know when Ms. Herta, Ms. Ruan Mei, Mr. Screwllum, and Professor Ratio will be able to wake up Phantylia."
"If we can wake her up, perhaps we can learn more about this Universe through her."
Yae Miko murmured.
[Candace: If Phantylia is awakened, perhaps Luo Feng and the others will be able to find the real Miss Tingyun.]
[Dehya: It must be so, the real Miss Tingyun must still be alive!]
[Albedo: Phantylia must hold many secrets. If she can be awakened, besides figuring out Miss Tingyun's location, we should also be able to learn some other things.]
[Dr.: That is indeed the case. At the very least, we can learn more about the "Destruction" faction through her. Of course, that's assuming Ms. Herta and the others can actually wake up Phantylia.]
[Regrator: Even if Luo Feng and the others can truly awaken Phantylia and learn more about "Destruction" from her, they might not necessarily share it with us.]
[Columbina: Yes, that's right. So instead of worrying about Phantylia, I'm more concerned about Penacony. If only Luo Feng could draw a lottery now and select 5 Astral Express Passengers to go to Penacony.]
[Paimon: That's too exaggerated, the Xianzhou journey hasn't even ended yet.]
[Columbina: Hehe, Little Paimon, aren't you curious about who can go to Penacony, and what kind of place Penacony, known as the Land of Dreams, truly is?]
[Paimon: Okay, I admit I'm very curious. Draw the lottery, Luo Feng. Please, please pick me.]
[Lumine: And me.]
[Furina: And me.]
[Arataki Itto: And me, I want to go to the Land of Dreams too.]
[Kujou Sara: You're not going anywhere, Arataki Itto. No, what I mean is, the place you need to go is Inazuma's prison.]
...
"...Although I knew it a long time ago."
"But seeing you actually appearing on Luo Feng's Astral Express and serving as a maid is still quite surprising, Ms. Cocoilia."
Topaz looked at Cocolia, who was wearing a maid outfit in front of her, and said with emotion.
"It is my honor to be Luo Feng's exclusive maid."
Cocolia said with a serious expression.
"Indeed, it can also be considered Belobog's fortune."
"With you working on the Astral Express, the Company's evaluation of Belobog will probably rise a bit more."
Topaz exclaimed.
"That's good then."
A slight smile appeared on Cocolia's face,She turned her head to look at Dr. Ratio, her previous conversation partner, and said:
"Since Professor Ratio still needs to handle the follow-up matters concerning Todd's case."
"I can go ahead and say hello to Ms. Herta, Ms. Ruan Mei, and Mr. Screwllum."
"After you finish handling your matters, I'll take you there."
"Mm, that's the only way now." Dr. Ratio nodded.
Although he really wanted to go study Phantylia right now,But since he promised Luo Feng to handle matters related to Todd and the Intelligentsia Guild, he couldn't break his word.
"So, are we going to find the Intelligentsia Guild research institution on Xianzhou Luofu now, Professor Ratio?"
Topaz asked."That's right, but Miss Topaz, if you feel rushed, you can leave first and head to Penacony."
"I will ask the Intelligentsia Guild members who are staying on Xianzhou Luofu for a star-faring vessel."
Dr. Ratio replied.
"No, let's move together."
"Anyway, the Topaz has already been given to Aventurine, so it's okay if I go a little later."
"I think even if Diamond knew about this, he would allow me to stay here for now."
topaz shook her head and said.
Dr. Ratio nodded slightly.
He was 100% certain about this.Just as he was about to say something, a low whisper, clearly carrying a hint of surprise, came over.
"Topaz, Aventurine..."
Dr. Ratio and Topaz looked over following the sound and found that the speaker was Ningguang.
"What's wrong, Miss Ningguang? Are you interested in 'Topaz'?"
"Or rather, do you know that man, Aventurine?"
topaz asked Ningguang doubtfully.Afterwards, she looked at the faces of Hu Tao, Mona, and other Teyvat Passengers, whose expressions had also become somewhat unusual.
"It's nothing, it's just that I've heard the term Aventurine Stone a bit too many times recently."
"So, suddenly hearing you mention a person named 'Aventurine' just surprised me a little."
Ningguang's lips curved slightly upwards, she shook her head and said.
Earlier, Luo Feng had specifically instructed her not to deliberately reveal anything about the Aventurine Stone she used.
Although she didn't know the specific reason, since it was something Luo Feng had instructed, Ningguang naturally didn't want to disobey.
Even with Topaz, who seemed to have a somewhat close relationship with Luo Feng,Ningguang would not talk about the Aventurine Stone she used."
So that's how it is."
Topaz murmured, a thoughtful expression on her face.Like Topaz, Ningguang also seemed to be deep in thought.
[Paimon: I remember Luo Feng was playing with a gem called topaz before, right.]
[Alice: That's right. And as expected, Topaz also possesses a Topaz.]
[Rosaria: What's even more interesting is that topaz has a colleague named "Aventurine". So, would this "Aventurine" possess a "Aventurine Stone"?]
[Kaeya: Interesting analysis. If that "Aventurine" has an equal status to Topaz within the Interstellar Peace Corporation, perhaps he really does possess a "Aventurine Stone".]
[Paimon: But if that's really the case, why would Luo Feng possess both a Topaz and a Aventurine Stone?
Also, also, could the Topaz and Aventurine Stone belonging to Topaz and Aventurine also unleash the power that Miss Ningguang displayed when she used the Aventurine Stone before?]
[Wriothesley: Hehe, regarding this matter, I'm afraid only Lord Luo Feng, Topaz, and the aforementioned Aventurine would know.]
[Clorinde: I'm afraid Ningguang and the others are also thinking about this question right now.]
...
"Um, if I remember correctly, you all come from a place called Teyvat Continent, right."
Suddenly, Topaz spoke up and asked Ningguang and the many Teyvat Passengers behind her.
"Yes, is there a problem?"
Mona nodded and said.
"Not really, just a little curious."
"Could it be that Teyvat Continent also has Aventurine Stone?"
Topaz asked.
"Miss Topaz, why would you suddenly ask about this?"
At this moment, Ningguang raised her head, cautiously pondering Topaz's question in her heart.
"Just a little curious. I heard Miss Ningguang mention Aventurine Stone earlier."
"I was thinking that Teyvat Continent might also have Aventurine Stone, or other gems that exist in other Universes."
"If there are gems of high enough value among them, perhaps the Company would be willing to acquire some."
Topaz's lips curved upwards as she spoke.
Although she said that, Ningguang pondered Topaz's question, recalling Luo Feng's instructions from earlier.
She always felt that what Topaz was saying at this moment was not that simple.
.....
Chapter 437: Is Penacony a World of Dreams? The Teyvat People Are Shocked!
The more Ningguang thought about it, the more she felt that something was amiss.
Ultimately, she chose a cautious response.
"Miss Topaz might be disappointed,
" Ningguang shook her head and said,"Perhaps some gems that exist in the Universe can be found on the Teyvat Continent."
"But at least, Aventurine Stone does not exist on the Teyvat Continent."
"Furthermore, without Lord Nara's permission, we cannot bypass him to do business with the Company."
"As for why I know about Aventurine Stone, it is naturally because I learned about it by chance after coming to this Universe."
"Aside from Aventurine Stone, I have naturally also learned about some other gems, such as Topaz."
After speaking, Ningguang smiled politely at Topaz.
"So that's how it is..."
Topaz murmured.
A moment later, she raised her head and smiled at Ningguang and the others:
"You are right. Since Lou Feng is currently doing tourism-related business on the Teyvat Continent,"
"We really shouldn't bypass him to trade with Teyvat without authorization."
"Miss Ningguang, please disregard what I said earlier."
Ningguang shook her head slightly: "It's alright."
"Since that's the case, we'll leave now."
Topaz said, glancing at Dr. Ratio.
"Wait," Yae Miko suddenly spoke.
"Is something wrong?" Topaz stopped and looked at Yae Miko in confusion.
"It's like this, I heard Miss Topaz and you mention earlier that you were going to Penacony."
"I am quite curious about Penacony. I wonder if Miss Topaz could briefly introduce this place known as the 'Land of Dreams' to us?"
Yae Miko smiled.
"Yes, yes," Mona nodded repeatedly:
"Since it's called the 'Land of Dreams', could it be a place where one can quickly realize their dreams?"
Topaz blinked and exchanged glances with Dr. Ratio beside her.Dr. Ratio sighed slightly and said to Mona and the others:
"The so-called 'Land of Dreams' does not refer to a place where dreams are realized."
"You can understand this term more literally."
"More literally?"
Mona frowned.
"Let's just say it directly. The so-called Land of Dreams actually refers to a world within a dream."
Dr. Ratio said.
[Nahida: A dream?]
[Arana: A world within a dream?]
[Lan Romo: Could it be... the in the Universe can also create worlds within dreams?!]
[Lumine: The... Lou Feng in the Universe?]
[Paimon: What does that mean?]
"A world within a dream? Wait, Professor Ratio, do you mean it's a place that exists in a dream?"
Mona exclaimed."Precisely."
Dr. Ratio nodded and continued:
"As for what kind of world it specifically is... Since Lou Feng plans to go to Penacony, he will likely take a group of Teyvat Passengers there as well."
"Given that, the more specific details about Penacony will be left for him to explain to everyone at that time."
"This one doesn't wish to spoil Lou Feng's enjoyment. Everyone, let's chat again if there's a chance."After speaking, Dr. Ratio turned around and left along the corridor.
Topaz waved goodbye to everyone and quickly followed Dr. Ratio's footsteps.
This scene caused the Teyvat People, whose curiosity had just been piqued, to sigh repeatedly.
[Kaeya: What a pity, we couldn't learn more about Penacony.]
[Diluc: There's nothing we can do. After all, that Dr. Ratio doesn't want to interfere with Lou Feng's travel plans.Penacony should be revealed when the Teyvat Passengers go to Penacony.]
[Yelan: That being said, a Penacony that truly exists within a dream is still quite intriguing as to what kind of place it could be.]
[Paimon: A world within a dream? Do such worlds really exist? And how do humans enter a world within a dream?!]
[Arana: A world within a dream, it exists. Nara doesn't know, it's okay.]
[Paimon: Huh, it's the person who left a message earlier. Wait, it's 'Nara' again. What does this mean?]
[Nahida: Nara, that is to say, humans.]
[Paimon: I see, it means humans... Wait, then is this Arana not human?]
[Lumine: I'm more curious about the world within a dream. Could it be that the Teyvat Continent also has a world within a dream?]
[Nahida: On the Teyvat Continent, there is indeed a world within a dream.]
[Lumine: It's confirmed. Even Lesser Lord Kusanali said so, a world within a dream definitely exists.Speaking of which, Nahida, since you know about the world within a dream, can you show me? I'll warm up first.]
[Nahida: I see, the Lumine wants to learn about the world within a dream on the Teyvat Continent before going to Penacony.
But I think the world within a dream in Penacony should be very different from the world within a dream on the Teyvat Continent.]
[Lumine: Is that so...]
[Navia: A world that exists within a dream, no matter what kind of world this Penacony's world within a dream is,my curiosity has truly been piqued. I really want to go and see it soon... No, I first need to win a ticket to Penacony.]
[Charlotte: Yes, yes.]
...
"What a pity, we couldn't learn more about Penacony from Miss Topaz and Professor Ratio."
"Indeed, we'll only know about Penacony's situation when Luo Feng starts his next journey."
"Just knowing that Penacony is a world within a dream makes me feel somewhat impatient to learn about it."
Mona drooped her shoulders and sighed.
"Ningguang, what do you think?"
Suddenly, Keqing asked.
"Well, I just feel that Miss Topaz was interestingly inquiring about Aventurine Stone earlier."
"Although I don't know why she asked that question, it's definitely better not to reveal what happened earlier."
Ningguang said.
Although Ningguang didn't say it explicitly, Keqing knew that Ningguang was referring to her own use of Aventurine Stone to display preservation power.
"That is true. Although we don't know the specific reason, it is always correct to follow Luo Feng's instructions."
"Let's go everyone. While there's still time, shall we continue to stroll around outside?"
Yae Miko smiled.
Facing her suggestion, no one present objected, and they all stepped forward, preparing to leave the Astral Express.
Meanwhile, on the other side.Where Topaz and Dr. Ratio were.
"Ms. Topaz, you don't happen to think that the reason for Diamond's Path of Preservation losing control is because of Luo Feng and Luo Feng's passengers, do you?"
In the corridor, Dr. Ratio suddenly asked Topaz beside him.
"Indeed, nothing escapes your eyes, Professor."
"Or rather, you also noticed something from Miss Ningguang and the others?"
Topaz shrugged, while teasing the Account Pummel on her shoulder, and replied.
"If we are prejudiced and assume that Ms. Ningguang and the others are the reason for the power Aventurine controls losing control."
"Their behavior can naturally be called abnormal."
"However, this is only the case if we are prejudiced."
"After all, they can indeed learn about various gems in the Universe, such as Aventurine Stone, through other means."
Dr. Ratio said.
"Yes. It's just that Diamond's power going out of control is too special."
"And Luo Feng is also too special; he can even converse with the Amber Lord."
"And also, he can even use the Dragon Transformation Method to freely transfer the Dragon Lord Power!"
"I'm even starting to think Luo Feng might be related to immortality."
"In such a situation, it's understandable that I would link Diamond's power going out of control with Miss Ningguang and the others being concerned about Aventurine Stone."
"Although it's just my guess, I'm wondering if Luo Feng talked to the Amber Lord and then, through the Amber Lord, used the portion of power Diamond gave to Aventurine."
Topaz spread her hands and said.
"Undeniably, Luo Feng is indeed quite special."
"As a Emanator of Trailblaze, he can converse with the Amber Lord and possesses Vidyadhara authority that even the Vidyadhara Dragon Lord has never mastered."
"His existence can no longer be simply summarized by the word'special'."
Dr. Ratio nodded in agreement and said.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed someone could achieve Luo Feng's level.
"But your conjecture can only be considered a conjecture; there's no evidence to prove it's correct."
Dr. Ratio continued
."Perhaps I can ask Luo Feng directly?"
Topaz rested her right hand on her chin and said.
But soon, she shook her head again.
"Never mind, let's put this matter aside for now."
"Something that even Diamond temporarily can't figure out, it's too difficult for me alone to investigate thoroughly."
"I just feel it's not appropriate to ask Luo Feng about these things at this time."
Topaz said.
If Diamond's power going out of control wasn't because of Luo Feng, then she would have wronged him.
In that case, it would be normal for Luo Feng to be angry about it, Topaz thought.
But if Diamond's power going out of control was because of Luo Feng, Topaz felt she wouldn't be able to handle it either.
It might even strain their relationship.
Rather than doing that, it would be better to tell Diamond her conjecture.
As for what Diamond does afterward, that's not something she needs to worry about.
"Indeed, compared to worrying about this matter."
"It would be better to worry about Lord Luo Feng's potential attitude towards Penacony."
"You heard earlier that he seems quite concerned about that former Trailblazer Watchmaker."
"He even believes that the Watchmaker, who left the Astral Express several Amber Eras ago, can still be considered Trailblazer."
Dr. Ratio reminded her.
"Yes, the way Luo Feng looked at me and the tone he used when speaking to me just now."
"It makes me feel like he seems to know the Company's purpose in sending us to Penacony."
"Sigh, I hope Luo Feng himself isn't interested in Penacony."
"Otherwise, this mission might face a failed outcome."
Topaz sighed and said.
This was also one of the reasons Topaz didn't plan to ask Luo Feng about "Aventurine Stone".
"That's true. Offending such a special Luo Feng for the sake of one Penacony isn't a profitable business no matter how you think about it."
"So, how about you submit an application to Diamond to abandon this mission?"
Dr. Ratio asked.
"After abandoning this mission, you'll have more time to research Phantylia on Luo Feng's Astral Express and work together with the three members of the Genius Society, right?"
Topaz looked at him with eyes that seemed to see through Dr. Ratio's thoughts.
"I don't deny that."
Dr. Ratio closed the book in his hand and said."Let's not. I will report what happened here to Diamond."
"While you are working with the three geniuses, I will also stay by Luo Feng's side and try to find out more about his thoughts."
"Hmm... I hope Aventurine can manage on his own in Penacony."
Topaz murmured to herself, then walked out of the Astral Express door with Dr. Ratio, heading towards the Intelligentsia Guild's branch located on Xianzhou Luofu.
...
Several days later.
Xianzhou Luofu.
"...Thank you all for watching, today's performance ends here."
"If you enjoyed Shang Shang and my performance, please consider giving a small tip. Thank you."
Guinaifen beat the drum and gong, facing the many spectators with a smile.
Seeing this, a group of spectators felt their empty wallets and silently turned to leave.
A group of spectators left some tips and then also departed.
Before long, only Guinaifen and Sushang were left at the performance venue.
"Phew, it's finally over."
Sushang threw away the broken stone slabs on her body, patted the dust off herself, and stood up.
"You worked hard, Shang Shang. We made quite a bit today, I'll treat you to a meal later."
Guinaifen came back to her senses and said to Sushang.
"Alright, that's true, but Guinaifen, your performance today seemed a bit off."
"I feel like you're a bit down."
Sushang said.
Guinaifen: "Really?"
Sushang shook her head and said:
"We're very familiar with each other, so I definitely wouldn't be mistaken."
"Wait, I remember Luo Feng seemed to be leaving Xianzhou Luofu today."
"Are you feeling down because of this?"
Hearing this, Guinaifen pursed her lips and turned her head to the side:
"H-how could that be, haha. Luo Feng isn't settling on the Xianzhou, it's normal for him to leave, right?"
Sushang narrowed her eyes and leaned her head close to Guinaifen.
"W-what's wrong?"
Guinaifen shrank her neck back, somewhat afraid to meet Sushang's gaze.
"Hehe, I completely understand now. You really like Luo Feng, Guinaifen."
"That's why you're feeling down because Luo Feng is about to leave, right?"
Sushang clapped her hands and said with certainty.
...
Chapter 438 Liyue: Shocked, Yanqing will visit Liyue as the Xianzhou Representative!
"Shang Shang, what are you talking about? I don't..."
Guinaifen's voice got lower and lower, until finally it disappeared completely.
"Stop being stubborn. You've been going to the Astral Express to look for Luo Feng quite often lately."
"And you often secretly look at Luo Feng."
"Although I haven't read many books, I can still tell if you like someone."
Sushang raised her hand and patted Guinaifen's shoulder, continuing:
" Luo Feng helped you a lot, didn't he? If I were you, I'd like him too."
"So, there's nothing embarrassing about liking Luo Feng."
"Instead of feeling down here, why don't you hurry to the Jade Gate now and see if you can catch Luo Feng's Astral Express to leave with him?"
"This…"
A blush crept onto Guinaifen's face.
Although she was somewhat reluctant to admit what Sushang said, she had to confess that she was a little tempted.
However, shortly after, the image of Cocolia leaving Luo Feng's bathroom that she had seen on the Astral Express resurfaced in her mind.
Although Cocolia was a maid, serving Luo Feng's bath was considered normal.
She had known about such things when she was still a princess.But Guinaifen always felt something was off.
The reason was also something she had known about maids when she was a princess.
Some nobles who had maids serve their baths didn't just have a simple bath.
It was quite common for male nobles to do something to female maids, taking advantage of the opportunity.
If the relationship between Cocolia and Luo Feng was truly that intimate, what business did she, Guinaifen, have getting involved?
Thinking of this, Guinaifen sighed again.
"Seriously, when did the Guinaifen I know become like this?"
"The four big words 'hesitant and indecisive' are practically written on your face."
Sushang placed her hands on Guinaifen's shoulders and shook her vigorously, then continued:
"Just tell me if you want to travel with Luo Feng."
"If you do, come to the Jade Gate with me now."
"Besides, Luo Feng is about to leave. You should at least go and see him off, right?"
Guinaifen blinked and looked at Sushang for a few seconds.
Shortly after, she shook her head and smiled:
"Indeed, no matter what, I have to go and see him in person at this time."
Sushang: "That's right."
Guinaifen: "Shang Shang."
Sushang: "What is it?"
Guinaifen: "Thank you."
Sushang: "What kind of relationship do we have? No need to thank me."
Guinaifen: "Also, it's not 'hesitant and decisive', it's 'hesitant and indecisive'. You used the idiom incorrectly again."
After speaking, Guinaifen smiled and ran out."
Oh, you little Guinaifen, laughing at me again. Stop right there!"
Sushang, with a blush on her face, took off running, chasing and scolding Guinaifen.Meanwhile, on the other side.Astral Express.Reception car.
"...So, none of you four were able to awaken Phantylia?"
Luo Feng furrowed his brow, speaking to Herta, Ruan Mei, Screwllum, and Dr. Ratio, who had joined them later.
"Tsk, that Phantylia is really a tough nut to crack."
"To think she sealed herself away so deeply."
Herta stood with her hands on her hips, clearly displeased.
"Logic: Perhaps more time is needed to analyze Phantylia."
Screwllum said.
"If some special methods are used, perhaps Phantylia can be awakened."
"But it might cause irreversible effects on her, making her no longer herself."
Ruan Mei said in a gentle voice.
"But Luo Feng, what you want is the original Phantylia to wake up, right?"
Dr. Ratio said.
"Indeed, if Phantylia is no longer Phantylia."
"Then there might be no way to dig out the information I want from her mind."
Luo Feng nodded in agreement.He had no doubt that Ruan Mei possessed such ability, after all, she could even briefly cultivate Emanator of the Hunt.
Luo Feng even felt that Ruan Mei could input the concept of 'The Propagation' into Phantylia's body.
However, at that time, whether Phantylia would turn into an insect was anyone's guess.
"Could it be... there really is no way?"
Behind Luo Feng, Yukong's somewhat disappointed voice came over.
Luo Feng was about to leave the Xianzhou Luofu with the Astral Express.
Even though Yukong was busy with the Sky-Faring Commission's work, she still rushed here to check on Phantylia's condition.
In fact, these past few days, almost whenever she had free time, Yukong would come to the Astral Express to wait for news from Herta, Ruan Mei, and the others.
"...Phantylia cannot remain dormant forever, after all, that's no different from being truly dead."
"As long as she still exists on my Astral Express, we still have a chance to pry information out of her."
Luo Feng said to Yukong."But, you're leaving the Xianzhou soon…"
Yukong pursed her lips and murmured.
"You don't have to worry about that. I really like the Xianzhou Luofu."
"Even if I leave temporarily, I will still come back here."
"I can guarantee you that."Lord Luo Feng said with a serious expression.
"...Thank you, Luo Feng."
Yukong let out a long breath.
Although she felt regretful in her heart.
But he knew that Luo Feng had already done his best, and he would continue to try to awaken Phantylia.
This was already considered a great favor, and Yukong understood that she couldn't ask for more.
"So, what are your plans next?"
"Are you going to accompany me to the Teyvat Continent to continue trying to awaken Phantylia?"
"Or are you going to put this research aside for now and stay in this Universe?"
Luo Feng came back to his senses and said to Ruan Mei, Screwllum, Herta, and Dr. Ratio.
"Planet Screwllum is temporarily free, I plan to stay here for now."
Screwllum said.
"I have to go back to the Herta Space Station and use the research equipment there to deduce a plan to awaken Phantylia."
"Once I figure it out, I'll come find you again, Luo Feng."
Herta said."Understood."
Luo Feng nodded and looked at Ruan Mei: "What about you, Ruan Mei?"
"As for me… I probably need to find a quiet place to think carefully about how to awaken Phantylia."
Ruan Mei replied.
"It seems two geniuses plan to go back and think, and one genius plans to stay for now."
"In that case, let me add one more person to those staying. Luo Feng, please allow me to also go to the Teyvat Continent."
Dr. Ratio said."Oh, you plan to make a trip with me?"
Luo Feng raised an eyebrow, "Isn't your work urgent?"
Dr. Ratio: "I still have some time."
Luo Feng nodded slightly and looked at Topaz not far away:
"What about you? Are you also going to act with Professor Ratio?"
Hearing this, Topaz smiled slightly and said:
"Of course. I'm quite curious about the Teyvat Continent, which you, Luo Feng, have taken special care of."
"Are you sure it won't delay your mission in Penacony?"
Luo Feng asked.
"Don't worry, Luo Feng, there won't be any problems."
Topaz smiled.Topaz had informed Diamond about Luo Feng's affairs.
After Diamond learned about what Luo Feng had done on the Xianzhou, he naturally allowed Topaz to stay with Luo Feng for the time being to figure out Luo Feng's attitude towards Penacony.
Of course, there was also the issue of the "Aventurine Stone."
As for Penacony, Topaz and Dr. Ratio only needed to arrive before the start of the Harmony Festival in Penacony.
The rest could be arranged by Aventurine with a little more effort.
"Alright, since you've all said so, I have nothing more to say."Luo Feng smiled, his gaze sweeping over Dr. Ratio and Screwllum.
He always felt that Dr. Ratio and Screwllum would soon develop a differential universe.
[Albedo: So, Professor Ratio is coming to Liyue soon?]
[Dr.: I wonder if I can exchange knowledge with Dr. Ratio if I rush to Liyue now.]
[La Signora: Dr., are you serious? Do you really think your meager knowledge can be used to exchange knowledge with Dr. Ratio?]
[La Signora: Even if that person is not a member of the Genius Society, his achievements are far beyond what you can compare to.]
[Barbeloth: Perhaps, it would be more appropriate to express it with words like "consulting Dr. Ratio."]
[Dr.:...]
[Rhinedottir: Perhaps there are things on the Teyvat Continent that will interest Dr. Ratio,If I share them with him, will he be willing to share some knowledge?]
[Alice: Although Dr. Ratio is different from the members of the Genius Society, he has the possibility of sharing his knowledge with others.
But that also depends on the person. Are you sure that with your personality, you can impress Dr. Ratio and make him share knowledge with you, Rhinedottir?]
[Dain: Hmph, there is absolutely no such possibility. I think if Rhinedottir appeared before Professor Ratio, he would be more likely to directly "treat" her as a chronic illness.]
[Rhinedottir: Dainsleif...]
[Paimon: Is it just my imagination, or does this Dainsleif have a big problem with Rhinedottir?]
[Lumine: I feel it too. Speaking of which, even if Dr. Ratio comes to the Teyvat Continent, he must be busy continuing to awaken Phantylia, right?
Does he really have time to share knowledge with the Tivat People?]
[Dr.:...]
[Rhinedottir:...]
[Beidou: It seems that Miss Topaz and Dr. Ratio will definitely be staying on the Teyvat Continent for a while.
Dr. Ratio will probably stay in the Astral Express to do research. But Miss Topaz should be out and about. I wonder where she will appear then.]
[Uncle Tian: In any case, Liyue needs to prepare in advance.]
"Ningguang, you've already notified Keqing, Xiao, Hu Tao, and Qiqi that they are returning, right?"
Luo Feng turned around and looked at Ningguang behind him.
"Don't worry, Luo Feng."
"They are on their way back."
"Do I need to notify Rex Lapis and the others to come back as well?"
Ningguang asked.
"That's not necessary," Luo Feng waved his hand and said:
"Zhongli, Neuvillette, Yae Miko, Baizhu, and Mona came a little later than you."
"Let them enjoy their trip until the end of their travel time."
"At that time, the conductor of the other Astral Express will guide them back."
"Okay," Ningguang nodded and replied.
A moment later, Keqing, Xiao, Hu Tao, and Qiqi returned one after another and boarded the Astral Express.
"Very good, all 5 passengers of Astral Express One are back."
"How was it? Are you satisfied with this trip to the Xianzhou?"
Luo Feng asked with a smile."Of course, of course, there are so many fun things here on the Xianzhou Luofu."
"It's just a shame that the end came too soon."
Hu Tao sighed deeply at this point."
Hu Tao is right, it would be even better if the travel time could be a little longer."
Keqing agreed.
"With the Astral Express route built by Luo Feng, I think you will still have the opportunity to travel to the Xianzhou Luofu in the future."
At this moment, a voice that was quite familiar to everyone came over.
"General Jing Yuan?"
"Yanqing is here too!?"
Keqing, Ningguang, and the others turned their heads and looked at Jing Yuan, who appeared at the door, and Yanqing, who was standing behind him, in surprise.
"How did you two come here?"
"Are you here to see me off?"
Luo Feng asked Jing Yuan and Yanqing."
Luo Feng, you are a distinguished guest of our Xianzhou, so of course we are here to see you off."
"Of course, besides seeing you off, there is one more thing."
Jing Yuan smiled and looked at Yanqing.
"So, it's something related to Yanqing?"
Luo Feng asked.
"That's right," Jing Yuan nodded and said:
"Since the Xianzhou Luofu and Liyue are going to build a tourist route, I think it is also necessary for us to understand Liyue."
"Although I want to go in person, my many tasks prevent me from doing so."
"So, I can only arrange for Yanqing to go with you."
After Jing Yuan finished speaking, Yanqing immediately stepped forward and said:
"Just as the General said, I want to go to Liyue with Teacher Luo Feng."
"I've heard you say before that Liyue and the Xianzhou have many similarities, and I'm quite curious."
[Beidou: It's because of this reason.]
[Uncle Tian: That makes sense. After all, since a route is being built, it is normal for General Jing Yuan to arrange for someone to come and see the situation in Liyue.]
[Xingqiu: So, Yanqing is also coming to Liyue with Luo Feng?]
[Mountain Shaper: Liyue needs to treat Yanqing well.]
[Granny Ping: Hehe, this old one thinks the Tivat People should be able to do this, hehe.]
[Chef Mao: That's right, that's right, I will definitely treat Yanqing with my best cooking skills.]
...
Chapter 439 The Astral Express Returns, Liyue's Crowd Surges
[Chef Mao: If I treat Yanqing well, will it be easier for me to go to the Xianzhou Luofu then?]
[Xiangling: You're thinking too much, Dad. Whether you can go to the Xianzhou Luofu has nothing to do with treating Yanqing well. Although you should indeed treat Yanqing well.]
[Beidou: But if we can give Yanqing a satisfactory reception, when we really get the chance to go to the Xianzhou in the future, perhaps someone can look after us?]
[Paimon: It seems... that's indeed the case?~]
[Kaeya: What a pity, if Yanqing came to our Mondstadt, Master Diluc might be able to get a chance to do business with Liyue by treating Yanqing.]
[Diluc: Although the age calculation of the Xianzhou is different from that of the Tivat People, Yanqing should not be old enough to drink alcohol.]
[Kaeya: Don't be so serious, Dr. (owner) Diluc, hehe.]
[Diluc:...]
"Alright, the number of people I can bring is within the limit, Yanqing can leave with me."
Luo Feng nodded and said.
"Great."Yanqing's face showed a smile.
"It's almost time, everyone get ready to leave."
As Luo Feng's words fell, Ningguang, Keqing, Yanqing, and the others found seats one after another.
As for Jing Yuan and others who didn't need to leave with the Astral Express, they left the Astral Express and returned to the Xianzhou Luofu.
Before long, the Astral Express turned into a white light and disappeared from its original spot in Jing Yuan's eyes.
"It's gone, huh? Looks like it's time to go back to work."
Jing Yuan muttered to himself, then turned around, preparing to head back.
Just then, two hurried figures appeared in Jing Yuan's sight.
"Are you Miss Sushang and Miss Guinaifen? Why are you here?"
Jing Yuan asked curiously.
"General?" Sushang was instantly startled when she saw Jing Yuan.As for Guinaifen, she didn't see the Astral Express and quickly asked Jing Yuan:
"General Jing Yuan, where is Luo Feng? Did you see them?"
"So you're looking for Luo Feng."
Jing Yuan smiled, turning his head to look at the vast Universe outside the Jade Gate:
"You're a step late. Luo Feng has already left the Xianzhou Luofu with his Astral Express."
"How could this happen!"
Guinaifen clutched her chest, her body involuntarily taking a step back.An unspeakable discomfort surged in her heart.
"However, Luo Feng also said that he will likely visit the Xianzhou from time to time in the future."
"So if you want to see Luo Feng, there's still a chance."
"What do you say, Yukong and Qingni?"
As if seeing what Guinaifen was thinking, Jing Yuan asked Yukong and Qingni, who had come with him to see Luo Feng off.
"Mhm, that's right."
Yukong nodded heavily.
"I see, that's great."
Guinaifen let out a long sigh of relief.
Sushang saw Guinaifen's expression, slowly leaned her head over, and said with a chuckle in Guinaifen's ear, "You still say you don't like Luo Feng?"
Guinaifen looked at Sushang's smiling face, then felt her own heartbeat, and the corners of her mouth curved slightly upward.
This time, she didn't retort to Sushang.
After all, feeling upset because someone left, and then feeling happy upon hearing that he would return later...If that's not considered liking, then what can be considered liking?
Guinaifen raised her head, lifted her hand, and waved in the direction where the Astral Express had originally been.
"Come back soon, Luo Feng."
Guinaifen looked at the sky with anticipation.
What she didn't notice was that behind her, Qingni was staring intently at her back.
Guinaifen likes Luo Feng?
In other words, she's Mother's rival?!
It seems I need to hurry and think of a plan.Qingni thought to herself.
...
Teyvat Continent, Liyue.
"Quick, quick, hurry over to Jade Chamber!"
"Why go to Jade Chamber?"
"Don't you know that Lord Luo Feng has already chosen to set sail?"
"But that doesn't mean we should go to Jade Chamber... Wait, I get it. Are you saying Luo Feng will choose to land there?"
"Anyway, I think that's the most likely place. Since Yanqing came along, Miss Ningguang and the others will definitely choose to receive them at Jade Chamber, right?"
"Right, right, right, we have to hurry over, or it'll be too late. Wait, why are there so many Millelith guarding the road to Jade Chamber? Are... are the Adepti here too?!"
"It's confirmed! Luo Feng and the others are definitely landing at Jade Chamber. Otherwise, even the Adepti wouldn't be here helping maintain Order. Huh, look at that light! It's the Astral Express!"
As a sudden beam of light streaked across the sky, many Liyue residents raised their heads one after another, looking over with envy.Among them, naturally, were many Genshin possessing Visions.
"They're here, just as you said. The Astral Express intends to dock at Jade Chamber."
In an office at the Northland Bank, Tartaglia watched the Astral Express gradually slow down and said with emotion.
"This is normal. Afterwards, The Seven Stars of Liyue might discuss the specific matters of establishing the route with Yanqing, who represents General Jing Yuan."
"Furthermore, Luo Feng has been to Jade Chamber before, so the possibility of the Astral Express landing there at this moment is the greatest."
La Signora said, her arms crossed.
"How troublesome. If it could dock here at the Northland Bank, I could also meet with Luo Feng and Yanqing."
"If the Astral Express stays at Jade Chamber, won't I have no way to go over?"
Tartaglia scratched his hair and turned to look at La Signora.
"La Signora, do you have any ideas... Wait, where are you going?"
Tartaglia looked at La Signora walking towards the door and asked doubtfully.
"I'm going to meet Luo Feng."
La Signora said without turning her head.
Tartaglia: "Huh? You're one of the Fatui Harbingers. Do you think The Seven Stars of Liyue will let you go over?"
La Signora glanced at Tartaglia and said:
"I'm different from you. After fulfilling The Tsaritsa's wish, the rest of my life will be dedicated to serving Luo Feng."
"Therefore, The Seven Stars of Liyue won't forbid me from meeting Luo Feng."
Having said that, La Signora pushed open the door and walked out.
"Tsk, as if Luo Feng would really allow you to board his Astral Express."
Tartaglia shook his head, looking through the window at the Astral Express that had already docked.
"Before long, Morax will also be returning with his Gnosis, right?"
"That being said, that old man is now a Pathstrider. Just how should I go about getting his Gnosis?"
Tartaglia muttered to himself, his brows furrowed tightly....
[Barbara: Luo Feng and the others are back! I can already see the Astral Express!]
[Kaeya: The place where the Astral Express is docked is really lively.]
[Paimon: Yeah, it's packed with people here. I can barely squeeze through.]
[Klee: Huh? Is Paimon here in Liyue right now?]
[Paimon: Mhm, mhm. The Lumine and I have been waiting here for Luo Feng to come back for a long time.]
[Charlotte: That's great. I wish I was there too. That way, I might be able to interview Miss Ningguang and the others and hear about the Xianzhou Luofu from them.]
[Navia: Judge Neuvillette will be returning to Fontaine later. You could consider interviewing him.]
[Charlotte: It would certainly be good if I could interview Judge Neuvillette, but he's always busy,
and now he's been delayed from work for several days. After he returns to Fontaine, he's definitely going to be extremely busy for a while.]
[Venti: Indeed, I've heard that Fontaine's Chief Justice is always very busy. But more importantly,
I'm more curious about what face Morax will show after he returns.
Will it be as the divine Morax, or as the mortal Zhongli, hehe.]
[Osial: Morax, is that guy coming back soon?]
[Azhdaha: Morax...]
Not everyone was happy about Morax's impending return, especially his former opponents.Among them, the Azhdaha was the most prominent.
Liyue, the area around Mt. Hulao.The place where the Azhdaha is sealed.
A group of miners were desperately digging a tunnel.
Their eyes were listless, and although they were extremely tired, they didn't stop their movements.
Not far away, the embodiment of the Azhdaha's power, a blue-haired little girl named Ajiu, was staring intently at the sealing runes behind the miners.
"Faster, must be faster."
"The seal must be broken before Morax returns."
"Otherwise, with his current power, I will definitely be unable to take revenge on Liyue."
"Faster, faster..."
Along with Ajiao's words, the miners worked even harder.
Some even threw away their tools and chose to use their hands.But even so, Ajiao was not satisfied.
However, the miners were ultimately just mortals, and even if she was dissatisfied, she could no longer speed up their work.
Meanwhile, on the other side.Kunjun, the man possessed by the good thoughts of Azhdaha, passed through the crowd and arrived below the Jade Chamber."
Cloud Retainer, Mountain Shaper... these are all familiar faces, it's truly been a long time."
Kunjun looked at the figures of Cloud Retainer and others on the Jade Chamber from a distance and couldn't help but murmur.
"You know Master?"
Just then, a clear and cold voice suddenly sounded behind Kunjun.
"You are..."
Kunjun turned around, looking at the white-haired woman before him with some confusion.
"My name is Shenhe, I am Cloud Retainer's disciple."
Shenhe opened her mouth and said in a calm tone.
"So you are Cloud Retainer's disciple."
"Perfect, would it be too much trouble to ask you to lead me to the Jade Chamber to meet with Cloud Retainer and the others?"
Kunjun asked.
"Why?" Shenhe frowned, "And you haven't answered my question yet."
"Is that so..."
Kunjun nodded:"Since that's the case, I will tell you why I have come."
"After you hear it, I hope you can agree to my request."
After speaking, Kunjun turned around and walked in the direction away from the crowd.
He had come to stop Azhdaha, and in order not to cause panic among the people, Kunjun naturally needed a place with fewer people to talk to Shenhe.
At the same time, above the Jade Chamber.
Luo Feng looked with interest at the direction Kunjun and Shenhe left, the corner of his mouth slightly curved upwards.
With his eyesight, he could naturally see Kunjun's extraordinary nature.
That being said, he didn't plan to say anything about Kunjun's arrival.
After hearing the voices of Yanqing and Topaz expressing their admiration, he refocused his gaze on them.
"Is this the Teyvat Continent?"
"The scenery looks quite nice."
"And the atmosphere here is indeed quite similar to that of Xianzhou Luofu."
Yanqing stood at the edge of the Jade Chamber, looking down at the scenery of Liyue.
"It is indeed a good place."
"If the Company took over here, perhaps they would develop it into a tourist destination."
"However, I always feel that this world is a bit strange. There's a weird dome in the sky."Topaz said, raising her head to look at the sky.
[Skirk: She saw through the "False Sky" with just one glance.]
[Barbeloth: Is this the worth of Topaz from the Interstellar Peace Corporation? To be able to detect the False Sky so quickly, her power might be even greater than we imagined.]
[Alice: I hope no one provokes her. Of course, that includes that Yanqing.]
[Paimon: Is Topaz really that powerful? I've never seen her make a move before.]
[Tighnari: To be able to serve as one of the so-called Stoneheart Ten, Topaz must have her outstanding qualities.]
[Dori: To do business successfully, one's strength must be strong, let alone Topaz's job is essentially debt collection. For debt collection, the requirement for force is even higher.]
[Lumine: As for Yanqing, his strength definitely won't be weak either.]
"The 'dome' in the sky you mentioned is a feature of this world, it can also be considered a protection mechanism."
"You don't need to worry about that thing. If you're interested in Liyue, you can walk around and see for yourself."
"Of course, please abide by the laws of this country."
Luo Feng said."Of course, I am a law-abiding person."
Topaz laughed.
Luo Feng nodded, just as he was about to give Topaz a few more instructions, Kunjun's presence had already arrived nearby.
Luo Feng turned around, only to see that Cloud Retainer's disciple, Shenhe, had already brought the scholarly-looking Kunjun onto the Jade Chamber..

Chapter 440 Azhdaha Attacks Liyue, Ningguang Responds with Path
"Shenhe? Why are you here, and who is this..."
Cloud Retainer, in human form, walked closer to Shenhe, her gaze falling on Kunjun beside Shenhe.
For some reason, the person in front of Cloud Retainer had an aura that felt slightly familiar to her.
"It's been a long time, Cloud Retainer, and everyone else."
Kunjun smiled at Cloud Retainer, his gaze sweeping over Mountain Shaper, Xiao, and others one by one, finally landing on Luo Feng.
"Greetings to you too, Luo Feng.
"Kunjun placed one hand over his heart and said solemnly.
"Hello." Luo Feng nodded and said:
"I didn't expect to see you here."
"How should I address you, Azhdaha?"
[Dvalin: Hmm? Azhdaha?]
[Charlotte: Is that the Azhdaha who often posts hateful comments about Liyue in the comment section?He doesn't look like someone burdened by deep-seated hatred.]
[Osial: No, that's not the issue. How could Azhdaha look like this?And wasn't he sealed? Could Luo Feng have made a mistake?]
[Andrius: With Luo Feng's ability, it's unlikely he would mistake Azhdaha.]
[Tartaglia: So he really is Azhdaha? Has he come to Liyue, perhaps to seek revenge on Liyue?Or is it to await Morax's return?]
[Servant: Now is not a good time to seek revenge on Liyue. If his mood is disturbed, the outcome could be quite bad.]
[Regrator: Indeed, not just for Azhdaha, but for Liyue as well.]
[Chef Mao: No, why is he Azhdaha? His appearance doesn't match at all.]
[Yanfei: I think Luo Feng wouldn't casually call someone Azhdaha.]
[Yun Jin: So Yanfei thinks it's true?]
[Yanfei: In any case, let's keep watching.]
"Azhdaha? You are Azhdaha?"
Mountain Shaper exclaimed and immediately came closer.
"This aura, it is indeed somewhat similar to Azhdaha."
Cloud Retainer also frowned tightly, looking at Azhdaha warily.
Although Azhdaha was once a companion to these Liyue Immortal,Azhdaha had, after all, been affected by erosion and fallen into madness.
Therefore, even though Kunjun currently looked no different from an ordinary person,Cloud Retainer could not guarantee whether the Kunjun in front of her would suddenly fall into a state of madness.
If Kunjun were to suddenly erupt and attack Luo Feng, that fact would be too terrible.
"To be precise, I am just a benevolent thought of Azhdaha. You may now call me Kunjun."
"When the seal loosened, I possessed this physical body."
Kunjun said.
"So that's how it is. No wonder I felt the power on you was somewhat weak."
"But you mentioned the seal loosening. Could it be that there's a problem with Azhdaha's seal?"
Xiao asked.
"Indeed! My main body intends to break the seal during the time Morax is away from Liyue, in order to seek revenge on Liyue."
"I came here precisely to notify everyone to be on guard."
"Counting the time, he is probably already on his way."
Kunjun said.
As if to prove Kunjun's words, suddenly, the land where Liyue was located began to shake violently.
Looking from the direction of Jade Chamber, several distant mountain ranges collapsed with a roar, as if making way for some great existence.
[Chef Mao: An... earthquake?!]
[Xingqiu: An earthquake at this time, it's hard not to connect it to Azhdaha.]
[Xiangling: So, what that Kunjun said is true? He's the manifestation of Azhdaha's benevolent thought, and the real Azhdaha is already on his way?!]
[Chongyun: It must be! To choose a time when Rex Lapis is away, Azhdaha really wants revenge on Liyue.]
[Albedo: While that's true, to choose this moment before Rex Lapis has returned to seek revenge, perhaps Azhdaha's mind hasn't fallen into complete madness yet. At least, he still retains some rationality. But, not much.]
[Dvalin: After seeing the Geo Archon's performance on the Xianzhou Luofu, Azhdaha probably doesn't think he's a match for the current Rex Lapis.]
[Osial: So that's it. If Azhdaha could actually succeed, Morax's expression upon his return would certainly be worth seeing.]
[Lisa: But attacking Liyue at this very moment when Luo Feng is planning to tour Liyue is not a wise move.]
[Albedo: That's why I said, the rationality he currently possesses isn't much.]
[Beidou: Although Rex Lapis isn't here right now, Ningguang, Keqing, and many Adepti are present. Many of them have already obtained The Power of Destiny.]
[Tartaglia: Without relying on Rex Lapis, can they succeed just by relying on themselves?]
......
"Indeed, has he already broken free from the seal?"
Kunjun looked at the distant mountains collapsing with a roar, then turned solemnly to look at Cloud Retainer, Xiao, Ningguang, and others.
"Everyone, my power is limited, I cannot stop my main body."
"Therefore, at this time, I can only borrow your strength."
"Please stop 'me' from entering Liyue."
Kunjun said.
"Of course, this Adeptus will go now."
Cloud Retainer transformed into a crane and was about to leave. Xiao also summoned his weapon.
"Fellow Adepti, please allow us to go together as well."
Ningguang stepped forward, her expression extremely serious.
"That's right, protecting Liyue is also the duty of The Seven Stars of Liyue."Keqing nodded and said.
When Ningguang and Keqing left Liyue to travel to the Xianzhou Luofu, they handed over their affairs to others.
Now that they have just returned, they haven't taken their affairs back yet.
Therefore, even if they leave now, the other Seven Stars of Liyue will surely be able to guarantee the stability of Liyue securely.
"No need, this Adeptus and Xiao are enough here. You can stay here and receive Luo Feng."
As soon as Cloud Retainer finished speaking, Hu Tao stepped forward again.
"Oh dear, don't say that, my dear Adeptus."
"Although the opponent is Azhdaha, we have also obtained The Power of Destiny now."
"So, I'd say we should still be able to help out a bit, right?"
"Although both Adepti have also obtained a Path and possess extraordinary strength."
"But wanting to avoid overly harming Azhdaha, relying solely on your strength might be difficult, right?"
"With us here, you should be able to act more freely, right?"
Hu Tao paused, then looked at Luo Feng.
"As for our dear Luo Feng, he shouldn't mind The Seven Stars of Liyue leaving for a while, right?"
Hu Tao said playfully.
"I don't mind. If I need a guide, I can find someone else."
"After all, I'm quite familiar with Liyue now, so I don't really need any special reception."
Luo Feng shrugged and looked into the distance.
His gaze swept over the mountains and seas, landing on Azhdaha in the far distance.
"Rather than this, I think you'd better decide quickly."
"Azhdaha over there won't wait for you to finish discussing before advancing."
"Although he is still a certain distance from Liyue, if he takes a few more steps, he will be close enough to inhabited areas."
Luo Feng said.
Hearing Luo Feng's words, Cloud Retainer, Xiao, Ningguang, Keqing, Hu Tao, and even Qiqi all tacitly stopped arguing,and instead directly unleashed their power and sped towards the direction where Azhdaha was located.
In the blink of an eye, they disappeared from the sight of Kunjun and the others.
"That was fast. The Power of Destiny truly cannot be underestimated."
"With them there, even if Morax has not returned, it should not be difficult to reseal my main body here."
Kunjun sighed with emotion, looked at Mountain Shaper who had not yet left, and said:
"Mountain Shaper, could you take me to the battlefield?"
"If we are to seal Azhdaha, perhaps my power can make things a little easier for Cloud Retainer and the others."
Mountain Shaper did not refuse.
Carrying Kunjun, he flew towards Azhdaha's location along with Moon Carver.
And with the departure of Mountain Shaper and the others, Jade Chamber instantly became quiet.
"They've all left. Oh well, I'll just wander around for now."
"Yanqing, Topaz, Professor Ratio, Screwllum, want to come along?"
Luo Feng asked.
"Thank you for the invitation, Lord Luo Feng."
"However, I would prefer to seize the time to research matters concerning Phantylia with Mr. Screwllum."
Dr. Ratio said.
Screwllum nodded, agreeing with Dr. Ratio.
"Alright, if you need anything, just contact me using the phone I gave you..."
Luo Feng shook the phone in his hand and said.
With the completion of the third journey, the phone issued by the System also received an upgrade.
As the owner of the System, even if he was on the Teyvat Continent, he could communicate with people in the Universe.
And as long as he was willing, the phones he distributed could also communicate with each other within the Teyvat Continent, or directly communicate with people in the Universe.
Of course, the prerequisite for all of this was that he was willing to grant permission to someone holding a phone he had issued.
After Screwllum and Dr. Ratio agreed, they returned to the Astral Express.
Luo Feng then turned to look at Yanqing and Topaz.
"You two shouldn't want to continue staying on the Astral Express, right?"
Luo Feng asked.
"Mm-hmm, I want to walk around and see things with Teacher Luo Feng."
Yanqing nodded repeatedly.
"Although I'm somewhat interested in the situation with that Ruotuo, I think I'll just wander around Liyue for now."
"Perfect, it can be considered a vacation."
Topaz chuckled.
"Then let's go, you go try the food at Wanmin Restaurant first."
"Oh right, Shenhe, you should come too."
Luo Feng said.
"Me?"
Shenhe looked over, a little surprised.
"That's right, let's go."
Luo Feng smiled, took Shenhe's hand, and leaped down from Jade Chamber.
After Yanqing and Topaz exchanged glances, they also jumped down from Jade Chamber.
Listening to the wind whistling past his ears, Luo Feng's gaze fell upon the crowd below Jade Chamber.
Soon, he locked onto La Signora's figure.
"She's here too?"
"Good, just in time to let La Signora pay the bill."
Luo Feng muttered.
......
On the other side, where Azhdaha was located.
[Chongyun: So... so big. Is this Azhdaha's true form?]
[Xingqiu: He already looked big enough from afar. I didn't expect him to be even bigger up close.]
[Arataki Itto: Cloud Retainer and Miss Ningguang seem to be talking to Azhdaha.I can't hear clearly. Can the person filming get a little closer?]
[Jean: Speaking of filming, Miss Ningguang actually chose not to close the livestream.]
[Kaeya: After all, this is a rare moment to showcase Liyue's strength to the people of Teyvat.
Someone like Miss Ningguang wouldn't miss an opportunity like this.]
[Rosaria: Indeed, if the people of Teyvat can have a clearer concept of Liyue's current strength,Liyue will have more advantage in diplomacy. Perhaps it can deter some people.]
[Tartaglia: I feel like you're talking about us, but I have no proof.Never mind, I'll just watch them fight. I wonder how much effort it will take them to reseal Azhdaha.]
[Dvalin: Azhdaha is an Elemental Dragon Lord after all. Even if Miss Ningguang and the others have obtained The Power of Destiny, dealing with him shouldn't be easy.]
[Andrius: If they want to seal him without causing too much damage, it will surely be even more difficult.]
"Azhdaha, stop."
"Don't let erosion blind your eyes."
Cloud Retainer remained in the air, shouting at Azhdaha.
"Cloud Retainer? And...Nigguang?"
"Morax isn't here, so you plan to stop me?"
Azhdaha let out a roar, clearly not intending to retreat just like that.
"It's not just the Adepti, we won't allow you to harm Liyue either."
Ningguang walked on the ground, the light of Preservation gradually surrounding her.
Keqing, Hu Tao, Qiqi, and others were not to be outdone, each releasing The Power of Destiny and standing on the same battle line as Ningguang.
Azhdaha glanced at Ningguang and said in a muffled voice:
"This aura, is this The Power of Destiny?"
"I admit this power is extraordinary."
"If it were Morax who had mastered this power, perhaps he could stop me."
