In Genshin Impact, we start to save the Five Yakshas.

Chapter 150 Word of Truth Upgrade

"Ow!"

Jiang Xun was still thinking about the possibility of committing suicide when suddenly a foul odor hit his nose.

Subconsciously, he activated the spell to protect himself. The next moment, there was a sound of metal colliding. Seeing that the sneak attack failed, the attacker retreated immediately. A low growl came from its mouth. Obviously, the opponent did not continue to attack after realizing that the sneak attack failed.

Only then did Jiang Xun see the attacker's appearance clearly. It was a dog made up of an unknown substance with strands of lightning wrapped around its body. It was obviously not a native life form of the continent of Teyvat.

"Beastland Hound?"

Jiang Xun naturally recognized the flying dog in front of him. In the previous war with Kanriya, he had killed many bigger ones. Compared with those, the one in front of him was much smaller.

Jiang Xun had no interest in getting entangled with this little dog, as he still had a mission to complete, so he raised his hand and was about to kill it. However, he overlooked one point, which was that the Beast Realm hounds usually moved in groups.

The next moment, several more attacks tore through space and headed towards Jiang Xun, but they were all blocked by the runes floating beside Jiang Xun. Seeing this, his face turned black.

Do you really think he has no temper?

He uttered the word "destroy" gently, and the air around him slowly twisted. Then countless hound remains fell from it, clattering to the ground. The number was quite considerable.

Jiang Xun was not happy about this, which showed that the scale of this black disaster was even larger than he had imagined.

Even though he was a very good hider, there were still so many beast hounds around him. As the chief priest of this year's Mingshen Taisha Shrine, the number and quality of monsters around him must have been greatly improved.

He didn't know what enemy Huzaigong died in battle against, but to be on the safe side, it would be better to find the enemy as soon as possible.

Jiang Xun did what he said and rushed towards Inazuma City.

Along the way, he could deeply feel the impact of the black disaster. The outskirts of Inazuma Castle, which was once peaceful in later generations, became a place where everyone was in danger. Soldiers from the Tenryo Bugyo were patrolling everywhere, and they were obviously aware of the horror of the black disaster.

"My Lord, the impact of this disaster is too great."

Inside the Tianling Bugyo headquarters, a soldier was reporting to his superior.

After hearing this, the officer rubbed his philtrum tiredly, obviously feeling a little annoyed.

"If the General had not rushed to a distant battlefield and was not currently in Inazuma, how could these monsters dare to be so rampant!"

Someone beside him spoke indignantly, obviously angry at the monsters' taking advantage of the situation, but he could only complain verbally because the monsters' attacks were obviously planned.

Taking advantage of the fact that Lei Zhizhi was not in Inazuma's local area, they launched an attack on Inazuma. This kind of tactic of luring the tiger away from the mountain is a very common tactic. Faced with such a situation, the pressure on them instantly increased a lot.

"Sir, the Palace Master is here!"

Another soldier hurried in and reported hastily, but there was a hint of excitement on his face.

Sure enough, the superior was delighted after hearing this and quickly invited the other party in.

Following the commander's order, the white-haired fox girl walked in slowly. She was dressed in a witch's costume, and her big tail swayed from side to side as she walked. Her eyes, as pure as amber, swept across everyone present.

"Master, we..."

The officer was interrupted by Huzaigong before he could finish his words.

"Please rest assured, everyone. I am also aware of this disaster. I will protect Inazuma together with the Tenryo Bugyo!"

Hu Zhaigong's words were like a reassurance pill, which instantly calmed everyone's originally beating hearts. They were really worried that the chief priest would just stand by and watch.

After all, with their identities and strength, they are more than capable of protecting their own species from this disaster, so there is no need to take the risk to help them.

"I will always remember your great kindness!"

All the soldiers present expressed their highest respect to the fox girl in front of them.

"Alright, alright, don't be so serious. Narukami Island is also my home. What's more, I promised the general that I would protect Inazuma!"

Hu Zhaigong waved his hands, his tone still lively.

The originally lifeless atmosphere was also livened up by the girl's liveliness, and the sadness on the faces of the soldiers present was visibly reduced a lot.

After chatting for a while, Huzaigong left.

Since she has agreed to protect Ming Shen Island, it is not her style to just talk about it on paper. She also needs to consider how to deal with the invasion of monsters next.

As soon as Hu Zhaigong walked out of the door of Tianling Fengxing, he saw Jiang Xun passing by.

"Hey, you are the famous Liyue storyteller, right?"

Jiang Xun didn't expect that he would meet the other person here, and the other party recognized him at a glance. Was he so famous at that time?

However, Hu Zhaigong seemed to be unaware of his own background and still thought that he was just an ordinary storyteller. It seemed that he had never mentioned himself to her.

Jiang Xun simply did not explain. To some extent, not knowing his background would actually help in the action.

"Uh, yes, but I haven't told a story in a while."

In order to maintain this identity, Jiang Xun also spoke up.

"It's a bit unsafe recently, so let's not talk about books for now. If you have any problems, come to Tianling Fengxing."

"Okay, thanks for the reminder!"

After giving a reminder, Huzaigong left.

Jiang Xun looked at the other person's back as he left and planned his next move.

......

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you looking at? Are you in love with the Palace Master? I'm telling you, as a storyteller, don't dream of eating swan meat!"

The soldier standing guard outside the door saw Jiang Xun staring at Hu Zhaigong's departing back without moving, and spoke in a sarcastic tone.

The soldier was still laughing, but after seeing Jiang Xun's gaze, he could no longer laugh. He felt as if a thousand pounds were pressing down on him, making him unable to hold on. He fell to the ground, trembling all over, with extreme fear flashing in his eyes. He realized that he had provoked the wrong person.

Jiang Xun was too lazy to argue with this guy, so he just gave him a lesson and let him go. He had seen many people like him. If he was not in a good mood now, this would not be a matter that could be solved by just giving him a lesson.

"This random ability is: Word of Truth (Fragment)"

On the way out of the city, the system's voice sounded again. When Jiang Xun heard the random ability this time, the unhappiness he had just felt disappeared instantly.

The last time the system gave out this reward was during the Qiqi incident.

Word of Truth (Broken): It is composed of three fragments of the Word of Truth. It can work on high-level demons and can temporarily modify the middle-level rules of the world at no cost.

Based on the original Word of Truth, it was upgraded to another level and can be used on high-level demons. This level of Word of Truth has made Jiang Xun's combat effectiveness take a qualitative leap, not to mention the latter's ability to temporarily modify the middle-level rules at no cost.

This also means that Jiang Xun is one step closer to truly speaking and doing what he means!
