Chapter 138 Return to Inazuma
Chapter 138 Return to Inazuma
The atmosphere of the Sea Lantern Festival is happy, but short-lived. After experiencing that night of lanterns, the festive atmosphere of the Sea Lantern Festival lasted for a few days and then began to slowly dissipate.
Liyue has entered a new year again, but the only thing that has not changed is that the people of Liyue are not too nostalgic for the beauty brought by the Lantern Festival. After one Lantern Festival is over, there will be the next one. A seed of yearning is planted in everyone's heart, which will strive to sprout within a year.
Until the Lantern Festival next year, the unique joy will bloom.
.....
Jiang Xun also started to plan his next step. He had previously planned to visit other countries to meet his old friends and absorb the resentment of the demons.
At this time, his physical body had reached a bottleneck period. He could feel that there was a mysterious force preventing him from breaking through this layer of shackles. Regarding this matter, he once used the Word of Truth to impose orders on himself, but the result was still useless. The power still existed.
After a period of exploration, Jiang Xun finally understood what that power was. It should be a restriction imposed by the laws of nature to prevent the creatures of Teyvat from becoming unlimitedly stronger.
It seems that they are afraid of the emergence of a second throne...
Jiang Xun also knew about the war between the two thrones, but he did not think that he would become the third or fourth throne. He had no interest in ruling others.
But even so.
Jiang Xun vaguely felt that he would most likely confront the supreme god who sat high in the sky in the future, if for no other reason than his own existence was enough.
However, with his current strength, he is not strong enough to fight against the winner of the throne battle, unless he joins the abyss and uses the power of the abyss to deal with him.
But this is bound to lead to unimaginable consequences. Jiang Xun doesn't like such uncertain things, so he now has only two options.
One is to continuously absorb the resentment of the demon god into one's own body, use quantitative change to cause qualitative change, and finally break through the rules with strong force. Jiang Xun vaguely feels that after breaking through the physical body of the top demon god, he will step into a new world.
The second option is to continue completing the system's tasks to upgrade the Word of Truth. Jiang Xun feels that the reason why the Word of Truth has no effect now is that its level is too low. When this ability reaches the level where he can modify the rules of the continent of Teyvat at will, then even if this is the opponent's home court, he will not be afraid.
However, neither of these two methods can be completed immediately, and they need to be done step by step.
Fortunately, Jiang Xun still has time. Today, the maintainer of heaven's justice is missing and heaven's justice is obscure and difficult to understand. Perhaps something has happened that prevents him from coming forward directly.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xun suddenly remembered the fragments of memory he saw at the border between life and death, the broken buildings and the throne. He thought they should be related to this incident.
Otherwise, the Ice Queen of the Kingdom of Winter would not have gone out of her way to collect the Heart of God...
Jiang Xun was thinking about which country he should go to first. Except for Liyue, any other country has a lot of demon resentment that can be absorbed, and there is a chance that the mission can be triggered.
After much thought, Jiang Xun finally decided to go to Inazuma. In his opinion, Inazuma's war for the Seven Ruling Powers was also quite fierce, and there must be quite a few demons who died under the Shadow Knife, so there is naturally no need to worry about the resentment of the demons.
and......
Thinking of this, a gentle and beautiful face suddenly appeared in Jiang Xun's mind.
He smiled with some emotion.
"Considering the time, you should have remembered what happened back then, really..."
"Hey, Jiang Xun, what are you thinking about here alone?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Paimeng flew to Jiang Xun and was about to pat him on the shoulder, but when he saw Du Lin's slightly dangerous eyes, he immediately withdrew his hand that was about to fall.
Thinking of the red and swollen fingers that day, Paimon decisively flew behind Ying, as if this would make her feel safe.
"Jiang Xun, can you please take care of this guy on your shoulder!"
Jiang Xun had also noticed the arrival of the two people, and found it very interesting to see Paimon avoiding Du Lin as if he had seen a devil.
"Daddy, I want to bite her."
Du Lin also expressed his thoughts at the right time, but was rejected by Jiang Xun. Last time, it was Paimeng's own fingers that were not honest, so he just gave him a lesson, but if he bit him again this time, it would be too much of a bully for the emergency food.
Seeing that Jiang Xun did not agree, Du Lin was a little disappointed, but he still looked at Paimeng viciously. Since he couldn't bite her, he would attack her with his eyes!
Jiang Xun didn't pay attention to the little fight between Paimeng and Du Lin, and turned to ask Ying: "Did you... fight with someone else?"
Jiang Xun noticed that Ying had signs of fighting on her body. Although there were no wounds on her body and no scratches on her clothes, just from her breathing which had not yet completely calmed down and the mud on her feet, it could be seen that she had just been through a battle.
Upon hearing this, Ying looked at Jiang Xun in surprise, and was surprised that the other party could predict the outcome with just one glance.
His eyes were full of curiosity and shock.
However, Ying seemed to have thought of something. She suddenly hugged her chest, kept backing away, and looked at Jiang Xun as if he was a dangerous person.
"You're not going to follow me secretly, are you?"
Jiang Xun was speechless after hearing this. Ying may have a small head, but he has a lot of creative ideas. Who did you learn this inference from, the Eightfold Son of God?
"Do you think I'm that boring?"
Perhaps realizing that she had been thinking in the wrong direction, Ying decisively apologized to Jiang Xun and made up her mind not to talk so much with Yae Kamiko, the woman who wrote light novels, and lead her thoughts astray.
"We just completed a commission, and now we have another commission from Inazuma."
"Really? Then we happen to be going the same way."
As soon as Jiang Xun finished speaking, he found that Ying was looking at him with a suspicious look, and it was obvious that she was beginning to doubt him again.
"If you're really worried, I can leave first."
Jiang Xun said this with some annoyance, and was about to leave with Du Lin.
But in the end, after Ying apologized again, they still went together this time.
......
"Jiang Xun, aren't you an immortal? Why do you still need to take a boat?"
When they got on the boat, Ying looked at her wallet with some pain.
"Why can't immortals take a boat?"
Jiang Xun was a little confused. Could it be that in this era, immortals no longer even had the right to ride on a boat? This was really infuriating.
Besides, Jiang has never admitted that he is an immortal. As long as he doesn't admit it, he is just an ordinary good citizen of Liyue.
"Ying means that immortals can fly and can take others with them. Isn't this much faster than taking a boat?"
Paimon explained.
Ying nodded frantically in agreement, expressing her complete confusion.
Jiang Xun looked at the two men strangely. It seemed like they were talking about something else...
.....
Oh ~
"So you two want to go with me to save some boat fare?!"
Hey!
