Chapter 721

Ganyu took Shenhe to the Millelith at the harbor.

The others headed toward the Jade Chamber.

"Daddy, where are we going?"

"I'm taking you to go fish blasting!"

"Really? Yay! Finally, I get to go fish blasting! 'Team God', charge with Klee!"

"..."

Watching Ningguang, Keqing, and the others leave, Tartaglia turned his gaze toward the Exuvia not far away.

If he wanted to take the Gnosis, this was the best opportunity!

Although there were quite a few Millelith here, he was confident he could deal with them.

Thinking of this, Tartaglia felt a bit eager to try.

"Wait!"

"Something's not right!"

Tartaglia suddenly furrowed his brows.

With him, a Fatui Harbinger, present, would the Liyue the Liyue Qixing really leave the Exuvia here so carelessly?

Unless it was fake!

But that was clearly impossible!

Vaguely, he felt a sense of unease in his heart.

"Forget it, I'd better wait for the Tsaritsa's orders."

"I should build a good relationship with Mr. Zhongli first."

After pondering for a moment, Tartaglia ultimately gave up.

In any case, the Geo Archon was already gone.

A little earlier or a little later didn't make much of a difference.

Just as he turned around, preparing to go to the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor to find Mr. Zhongli,

he caught sight of a familiar trio.

It was none other than Zhongli, Venti, and Cloud Retainer!

"Mr. Zhongli, and you two as well, I didn't expect you to come here too!"

Seeing the three of them, Tartaglia walked up with a smile to greet them.

Because there were so many people earlier, and his attention had been on the Rite of Descension, he hadn't noticed the three of them.

"Apologies, the Tianquan has given me some instructions; I'm afraid I cannot make it to lunch."

Zhongli shook his head gently.

"No matter, let's change it to the evening then; there's plenty of time."

Tartaglia waved his hand with a smile.

It was the perfect time to go back and write a letter to the Tsaritsa.

"Then that would be a bother."

Zhongli said softly.

"Hehe, see you tonight!"

Venti said with a grin.

Having someone chase you down to treat you to a meal is just great!

The old man's life is just too comfortable!

I've definitely made a friend in him!

"Mm, see you tonight!"

"I have something to attend to now, so I'll be taking my leave."

After waving at the three of them, Tartaglia left directly.

Watching Tartaglia leave, the three exchanged glances, then walked toward the Exuvia.

They weren't needed at Guyun Stone Forest, so they could only come to handle this.

Of course, the three of them were still keeping watch from the shadows.

After all, this was a major event concerning the future of Liyue for the next thousand years!

Distance restrictions and the like were simply not an issue for the three of them.

And just at this moment, a short youth with short cyan hair descended from the sky and appeared before them.

"Greetings, my lord!"

"Hm? Lord Anemo Archon, and Cloud Retainer?"

The youth was stunned for a moment.

The youth was none other than the Conqueror of Demons, Xiao.

He was one of the "three-eyed, five-illumined yakshas" guarding Liyue Harbor.

He lived at Wangshu Inn year-round and loved eating Almond Tofu!

Today was supposed to be the same.

But who could have foreseen that the Vortex Archon, Osial, would suddenly revive?

As the Conqueror of Demons, Xiao had spent his entire life slaying the filth spawned from the remains of archons.

Therefore, upon sensing the aura of an archon, he had rushed over immediately.

The reason he came to Yujing Terrace was because he had sensed the aura of his lord.

He wanted to come here to ask for his lord's perspective.

He hadn't expected to run into the Anemo Archon from next door and Cloud Retainer here!

Why were they together with his lord?

"Yo, Xiao, long time no see!"

"Conqueror of Demons!"

Venti and Cloud Retainer also greeted him with smiles.

Liyue had held gatherings of the Seven Archons in the past!

So Venti had met Xiao before.

He had even used his lyre to help him soothe the pain in his body.

So they were old acquaintances.

"Xiao, you've come at the right time; later, come with me to pay a visit to Mr. Han."

"He can clear away the karmic debt on your body."

Zhongli said with a soft smile.

He had had this idea before.

He just hadn't had the chance to notify Xiao yet.

He hadn't expected the other party to come on his own.

This was for the best.

"Mr. Han?"

Xiao was stunned for a moment.

"Mm, the old man is right."

"Although I can use my lyre to help you alleviate the karmic debt, that treats the symptoms but not the root cause."

"Han Feng can help you resolve it directly."

Venti nodded in agreement.

When Buer was resurrected earlier, he and the old man had seen with their own eyes Han Feng remove the Forbidden Knowledge from her!

That was something that could cause immense damage to the Irminsul.

If Han Feng could solve such a terrifying thing, there was no need to mention the karmic debt on Xiao.

To put it in Blue Star terms, it's as easy as pie!

"My lord and the Anemo Archon are correct."

"Conqueror of Demons, you can finally be free of it."

Cloud Retainer was also full of relief.
