Chapter 407
"Your past mistakes?" Mu Yang asked curiously.
"In your past mistakes?" "During the Archon War, Morax, this guy, in the early days, generally wouldn't kill his opponents." Before Regarding Regarding Zhongli could speak, Zhong Kui said in a muffled voice: "This guy, clearly has powerful strength, and was undoubtedly the strongest Archon at that time.
But he wouldn't kill them.
Clearly, as long as we worked hard, we could make Does Does Liyue the first to determine the Geo Archon.
As a result, at that time, Morax chose unnecessary kindness."
Regarding Regarding Zhongli was also silent when he heard this. He also admitted that he was indeed not as mature as he is now.
This also gave his opponents an opportunity.
"For Morax and me, defeating and suppressing ordinary Archons is much more troublesome than killing them. After all, if we don't kill them, it is very difficult to maintain just the right attack." Then, Zhong Kui continued.
"Is this the feeling of worrying about using too much force and then killing the opponent directly?" Mu Yang nodded slightly. Now he also has such concerns many times.
As his strength gets stronger and stronger, sometimes Mu Yang is also worried that he will accidentally smash Seeing Seeing Keqing and the others to pieces.
Although the strength of Seeing Seeing Keqing and Hearing Hearing Ningguang is indeed very powerful compared to ordinary people.
It is no exaggeration to say that the current Seeing Seeing Keqing can already be called an Adept.
But they are still not as strong as Mu Yang's physical body. Many times, Mu Yang needs to be careful.
Can only let them take the initiative.
Alas, having too much power is not a good thing.
"You can say that. Back then, Morax and I were lured away by a group of Archons, and then other Archons launched a large-scale attack on Guili Assembly. When we discovered the problem and went back, Seeing Seeing Guizhong was already dying and finally died in front of us. From then on, Morax was like a different god.
Suppress those who should be suppressed, kill those who should be killed." Zhong Kui said helplessly: "We have always regarded Seeing Seeing Guizhong as a younger sister.
As a result, she fell because of our negligence and soft-heartedness.
This is our fault.
If it weren't for our soft hands, those Archons wouldn't have provoked us at will.
Also because we were too powerful, other Archons wouldn't have united to target the people around us."
Speaking of this, Zhong Kui was also full of guilt.
Mu Yang nodded slightly when he heard this. He could understand the other party's thoughts, that is to say, Regarding Regarding Zhongli and Zhong Kui, two guys, were soft-hearted outside and let go of their opponents, but the hatred value did not decrease, but instead made the other party gather together to target the people around Regarding Regarding Zhongli.
Such a plot seems to be a lot!
In many wuxia novels, those big shots often let their enemies go out of a soft heart, which then leads to their wives and families being harmed.
Just like Nameless in *Wind and Cloud*; he let Po Jun go, but Po Jun was not grateful for it. Instead, he took revenge on Nameless, and that is how Nameless lost his wife.
Besides Nameless, there are many others who ended up with broken families because of their mercy.
"Of course, if you strike too ruthlessly, it might also lead others to come and seek revenge on you." After some thought, Mu Yang comforted Regarding Regarding Zhongli: "Sometimes, once you step onto this path, there is no turning back, regardless of whether you did it voluntarily or were forced into it."
"Just like me; at first, I didn't care about being the Heavenly Principles or not."
"But in reality, I now have to worry about the Teyvat continent."
"Having stepped onto this path, there is no room for retreat."
Regarding Regarding Zhongli looked at Mu Yang silently and nodded slightly. Indeed, Mu Yang was very similar to him in this regard.
Thinking back, he never wanted to be some sort of Geo Archon. Aside from being able to fight a little, he wasn't very well-suited to be the Geo Archon. Relatively speaking, Regarding Regarding Zhongli felt that Seeing Seeing Guizhong was more suited to be the Geo Archon than he was.
He and Azhdaha only needed to support Seeing Seeing Guizhong from behind.
It was never stated that the Seven Archons had to be the most powerful ones.
Just like in Inazuma back then, Raiden Makoto was indeed not as capable in combat as Raiden Ei.
But in the end, wasn't it Raiden Makoto who became the Electro Archon?
That woman Seeing Seeing Guizhong might have seemed unreliable, but when it came to her people, she was the most willing to put in the effort. What he had done before was merely repeating her wisdom.
After Seeing Seeing Guizhong passed away, it took him a long time to fulfill the duties of the Geo Archon properly.
Moreover, he racked his brains every year over Does Does Liyue's policies, needing to think for a long time. If Seeing Seeing Guizhong were here, she probably wouldn't have needed much time to complete those policy plans.
This was Regarding Regarding Zhongli's trust in Seeing Seeing Guizhong.
He wanted to resurrect Seeing Seeing Guizhong, partly because he wanted to bring back this friend who had sacrificed herself due to his own negligence.
On the other hand, he wanted to say, "What the hell are you sleeping for? Get up and work! I've been working hard for thousands of years, and I want to rest too!"
Seeing Seeing Guizhong was a technical expert. Over in Sumeru, they had Nahida and Greater Lord Rukkhadevata as the Gods of Wisdom.
Although Raiden Ei often looked a bit silly and dim-witted, in many aspects, she was also at the very top of the Teyvat continent.
If Does Does Liyue wanted to compete with them, they could only call upon Seeing Seeing Guizhong.
Come back! My old friend!
Regarding Regarding Zhongli nodded slightly and took out a uniquely shaped lock: "This is the Memory of Dust."
"It was a token of our alliance that Seeing Seeing Guizhong once gave me. I spent a thousand years trying to unlock it."
"Inside, there is Seeing Seeing Guizhong's consciousness..."
"You spent a thousand years unlocking it?" Mu Yang was stunned upon hearing this, looking at Regarding Regarding Zhongli with great surprise.
Wouldn't that be a bit too coincidental?
Regarding Regarding Zhongli had spent a thousand years without unlocking the Memory of Dust, yet within half a year of his own arrival, Regarding Regarding Zhongli had managed to crack it.
Was this not a bit too much of a coincidence?
"It did indeed take some time." Regarding Regarding Zhongli coughed lightly. How was he supposed to explain this?
Because he didn't want anything to go wrong with this last remnant of Seeing Seeing Guizhong, he had only kept the Memory of Dust as a memento for a thousand years. As for the actual desire to unlock it, that had only arisen recently.
"When I was about to unlock this Memory of Dust, I sensed a trace of Seeing Seeing Guizhong's aura, so I stopped," Regarding Regarding Zhongli said with a serious tone. "If you are here, should any accidents occur, please stop time."
"No problem."
"I need new personnel on my side as well." Mu Yang did not refuse.
Mu Yang was also very interested in Seeing Seeing Guizhong. It seemed her personality was somewhat similar to Hu Tao's, which was quite interesting.
Of course, what Mu Yang cared about most was her mechanical arts. Although Cloud Retainer often said her own mechanical skills were on par with Seeing Seeing Guizhong's,
anyone could see that there was still a significant gap between Cloud Retainer's mechanical arts and Seeing Seeing Guizhong's.
Even now, what Cloud Retainer used was merely the technology Seeing Seeing Guizhong had left behind.
Everyone understood this, but they just didn't point it out.
If it were Seeing Seeing Guizhong, she could combine it with the knowledge Mu Yang uploaded, which would allow them to better popularize it across the Teyvat continent.
Regarding Regarding Zhongli nodded slightly. If Seeing Seeing Guizhong knew that both he and Mu Yang wanted to resurrect her just so she could work, would she even want to be resurrected at all?
"Then I shall begin." As Regarding Regarding Zhongli's words fell, golden light radiated from his hands.
At the same time, the Memory of Dust emitted a dazzling light, and a beautiful phantom of a young girl with closed eyes floated out from within.
Seeing this, Regarding Regarding Zhongli felt a surge of joy in his heart and hurriedly applied his points to her.
"I'll join in too!" Seeing this, Azhdaha quickly followed suit. Resurrecting Seeing Seeing Guizhong was not just Morax's business.
He had also had a very good relationship with Seeing Seeing Guizhong back then.
Even though Seeing Seeing Guizhong loved to tease people, their relationship was excellent.
"Morax, were you scared?" Seeing Seeing Guizhong quickly sensed her condition and exclaimed, "Eh, what are you all doing?"
"Stop talking nonsense, bear with it; we are resurrecting you now." Seeing Seeing Seeing Guizhong like this, Regarding Regarding Zhongli said helplessly.
"Eh? I can be resurrected?" Seeing Seeing Guizhong blinked upon hearing this, silently sensing her current state, and said nothing more.
Since when were Morax and Azhdaha so powerful that they could resurrect her?
She was an Archon, after all!
Soon, Seeing Seeing Guizhong noticed Mu Yang on the side: "Young man, who are you?"
"Are you very close with Morax?"
"Hello, Seeing Seeing Guizhong. I've heard so much about you. Want to go on a date?" Mu Yang looked at Seeing Seeing Guizhong's appearance and chuckled.
Seeing Seeing Guizhong: "???"
Regarding Regarding Zhongli: "??"
Azhdaha: "..."
Good heavens, Seeing Seeing Guizhong has only just been resurrected, and Mu Yang is already planning to make a move?
"This is Mu Yang, the current Heavenly Principles," Regarding Regarding Zhongli said with some helplessness. "The means used to resurrect you now were provided by him."
"Heavenly Principles?" Seeing Seeing Guizhong blinked, her gaze full of curiosity as she looked at Mu Yang. "You are the current Heavenly Principles—does that mean the previous Heavenly Principles have fallen?"
"It really is true that hearing of someone is not as good as meeting them!" Seeing Seeing Seeing Guizhong like this, Mu Yang rubbed his forehead. Hu Tao had indeed taken after Seeing Seeing Guizhong.
