Chapter 259: The Ambitious Mu Yang

Lumine already had a plan for her future.

Regardless, stopping Aether from destroying this world was a must. Even though she had been sealed by that god before, it seemed now that she had no qualification to resent them.

After all, it was her brother Aether who provoked this world; as the manager of this world, it was already quite generous of them not to kill them.

As for the rights and wrongs of Khaenri'ah, Lumine didn't want to get involved. What Mu Yang said might also have some issues; after all, everything he said was intelligence he had investigated, and such intelligence had subjectivity.

This was not to say Mu Yang's subjectivity, but the subjectivity of the people who provided the intelligence.

However, Lumine didn't care about all of this. Everyone had their own stance, but Lumine believed that this world should not be destroyed by the Abyss, and she had to stop her brother's actions.

And without power, she couldn't stop her brother.

"Go for it, I believe in you.

Perhaps because of your efforts, the gods of this world will show mercy to your brother for your sake," Mu Yang patted Lumine's shoulder to comfort her.

"Hmm!" Lumine thought of that white-haired god who had sealed them. Although they had exchanged quite a few moves with that god at the time, she had to admit that even in her prime, there was still a significant gap between her strength and that god's.

Thinking of this, Lumine also had a headache. She didn't know if that god would come to settle scores with her for the trouble Aether had caused.

And with that god's existence, it was nearly impossible for them to leave quietly.

To leave this world, one must pass through the gate guarded by that god.

In other words, one could not leave without that god's permission.

She had to resolve Aether's matter as soon as possible, before he committed a grave mistake, and let Aether turn back from his misguided path.

However, Mu Yang was truly a good person. If the other party had nowhere to go when the time came, and she found a way to go to other worlds, she could let Mu Yang become her partner.

Hmm, Paimon must also be taken along. Although this little one ate a bit much and often betrayed her information unintentionally, after this period, Lumine had gotten used to Paimon being by her side.

Paimon! The best partner!

"By the way, Mu Yang, what were you looking at here before?" Paimon hesitated for a moment, handed the last chicken wing to Lumine, and then asked Mu Yang.

"Here? Because there are people and things here that I dislike. Do you want to witness the craziest madman on the continent of Teyvat with your own eyes?" Mu Yang asked Paimon and Lumine.

"The craziest madman? Are you talking about those people from the Abyss Order?

But haven't we already had contact with them?

Even the Traveler's brother is a high-ranking member of the Abyss Order," Paimon asked, full of curiosity.

Lumine glared at Paimon speechlessly. What was this little one saying?

The fact that her brother was a high-ranking member of the Abyss Order was her biggest headache right now; Paimon was picking at her scabs.

Fine, she shouldn't have called Paimon the best partner before!

"No, those guys in the Abyss Order are crazy and manic, but that is more because of the Abyss. As for this guy, it is because of the distortion of human nature," Mu Yang said indifferently.

As a large amount of Anemo energy surged around Mu Yang, a massive water tornado appeared in the lake in front of him, and then the entire lake seemed to be sliced open, revealing the bottom of the lake.

"This is a door? There's a secret room under the lake?" Lumine reacted quickly, throwing away the remaining chicken bones and wiping her hands on the small cape on Paimon's back, entering a state of vigilance.

"Traveler, you're using Paimon's cape as a rag again." Seeing this, Paimon stomped her feet in dissatisfaction.

This Traveler is just too terrible!

How could she use Paimon's cape like that?

"What does this count as?

Anyway, your cape is special and won't get dirty!" Lumine said dismissively.

In Lumine's view, Paimon's clothes were as special as her own—they wouldn't get dirty and were hard to damage; they were definitely made of special material.

As for why she didn't use her own clothes if they wouldn't get dirty, well, wiping it on her own was just not good!

Anyway, Paimon's wouldn't get dirty!

What's wrong with wiping it?

"Let's go!" Mu Yang instructed the two who were clowning around. "Stay safe!"

Paimon and Lumine then realized—oh right, they were about to face the number one arch-villain of Teyvat.

Lumine was still a bit curious at this moment; she wouldn't doubt the ugliness of human nature, as she had indeed seen too much. She just didn't know what the number one arch-villain of Teyvat looked like.

But when they saw the situation in the secret room, both of them fell into silence. Even Paimon didn't dare to say much at this moment and could only respond with silence.

This was a massive laboratory, about a hundred square meters in size.

The smell of rotting corpses was everywhere, and there were a large number of bodies on the ground, some of which had already decayed.

Several candles flickered on the walls, and in the center, a man was currently dissecting a boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old on an experimental table.

"Wonderful, isn't it?" Suddenly, the man spoke out of the blue.

"Wonderful?" Lumine's gaze toward the man was filled with anger. As someone with a strong sense of justice,

how could she allow such a thing to happen? She didn't know when she had pulled out her Dull Blade. If she hadn't been unsure of the opponent's depth, she would have already stabbed him.

"Originally, even if they were alive, they would only spend their lives in mediocrity.

But because of me, their lives have become extraordinary," the man said in an indifferent tone. "I gave them power. Although it was very brief, it was a height they could never have reached before." ===== CHAPTER 261 =====
