Chapter 481

“Do you want to go and cut down Al-Ahmar?” Mu Yang understood Raiden Ei’s intention in an instant, shook his head slightly, and said, “This incident is very likely a probe from the Abyss and the Fatui. It is not convenient for you to show yourself.”

“Is that so?” Raiden Ei revealed a look of dissatisfaction upon hearing this.

It wasn’t that she was dissatisfied with Mu Yang, but rather with the Fatui. Such a good opponent as Al-Ahmar, they didn’t find him for her earlier, and now they were using him for a probe.

It was simply a waste!

At this moment, Raiden Ei could only helplessly choose to give up.

There was no other way; they still had to prioritize the big picture. Besides, there should still be quite a few enemies in the Abyss stronger than Al-Ahmar.

On the continent of Teyvat, Al-Ahmar might indeed be a powerful opponent.

But in the Abyss, Raiden Ei believed there were many powerhouses who could rival Al-Ahmar, or even be stronger than him.

As for whether Mu Yang would recruit Al-Ahmar as well, in Raiden Ei’s view, that was impossible.

Perhaps Al-Ahmar was a powerful Archon, but the other party was simply too unruly. No matter how one looked at it, Al-Ahmar did not seem like the type to submit to Mu Yang.

“Then are you going to take action yourself?” Raiden Ei asked with slight curiosity.

“Nahida probably wouldn’t be a match for Al-Ahmar; even Greater Lord Rukkhadevata might not be a match for Al-Ahmar.” After hesitating for a moment, Mu Yang said, “Unless Asmoday takes action, otherwise, it can only be me.”

Mu Yang silently sensed Al-Ahmar’s aura for a moment.

The other party’s strength was indeed quite good.

Of course, Al-Ahmar’s strength, in the current chat group, could not really be considered a powerhouse anymore.

Mu Yang, Asmoday, Raiden Ei, Morax, Azhdaha, and Mu Yang even suspected that Barbatos’s strength was greater than Al-Ahmar in this state.

Hmm, right, there was also Raiden Sakura!

During this period, Raiden Sakura had been outside hunting monsters of the Abyss. Mu Yang didn’t know how much Raiden Sakura’s strength had improved now.

But her strength surely wouldn’t be weak; it wasn’t impossible for it to even rival the current Al-Ahmar.

After all, she was truly very diligent.

Besides that, Neuvillette’s strength was also extremely powerful. Now that Neuvillette was the fully-fledged Dragon, his strength was not weak in the slightest. Even if he couldn’t compare to Asmoday, he couldn’t possibly be weaker than the current Al-Ahmar.

Unknowingly, a large number of powerhouses had gathered in the chat group.

“In that case, at this time, it is indeed most suitable for you to take action.” Raiden Ei actually wanted to add a sentence at this moment: Why didn’t Zekrom go?

After all, everyone knew that Zekrom had appeared in Sumeru, and previously some people suspected that Zekrom had a relationship with Nahida.

With Zekrom’s strength, coordinating with Nahida to resolve Al-Ahmar was not impossible.

However, it seemed quite normal for Mu Yang to take action at this time; after all, Mu Yang had long been on the blacklist of the Fatui and the Abyss Order.

He just needed to avoid exposing his true strength.

Although Al-Ahmar’s strength was powerful, as long as Mu Yang unleashed strength comparable to Asmoday’s previous level, or the strength he used in the Abyss, then it wouldn’t matter.

Anyway, the Abyss and the Fatui already knew Mu Yang’s strength, so it didn’t seem to be a problem for Mu Yang to expose some of it.

Looking at it this way, Mu Yang taking action was indeed the best choice.

“My going over was something some people expected from the beginning, after all, my relationship with Nahida is also known by many people.

Pierro absolutely knows.

Dottore was killed by me in Sumeru back then.” Mu Yang pondered for a moment before saying again.

Raiden Ei nodded slightly and said, “That is why I am concerned about this matter.

The Fatui cannot possibly not know about this.

They also know you will take action. Under such circumstances, what is their purpose in doing this?

Are they trying to make you take action? Have they prepared some means in Sumeru, wanting to use this opportunity to eliminate you?

Or are they using the Scarlet King Al-Ahmar to probe your strength?

But in my view, even the Scarlet King is not qualified to probe your strength.”

“Could it be that they want to probe the attitude of Celestia?” Raiden Ei asked hurriedly.

In Raiden Ei’s mind, her sister was very smart, the kind who wouldn’t be much worse than Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.

In the past, it was always Ei who arranged what she should do, and then she would just go and do it.

Now that it seemed she was returning to those days, Raiden Ei expressed that it was actually quite good.

“That is possible. After all, the matter of Al-Ahmar involves the ley lines. Logically speaking, Asmoday should indeed appear.

It seems that the incident where Asmoday descended upon Inazuma back then really did scare them.” Speaking of this, Mu Yang couldn’t help but sigh: “Oh, right, the Scarlet King’s sun disc, it indeed possesses the authority of the Scarlet King.

And if that sun disc could be brought to Snezhnaya, the environment there would also change.

For Snezhnaya, that is indeed a rare treasure.

I even suspect that they want to eliminate the Scarlet King through me, and then take away that sun disc.”

“You mean, that sun is a sun disc?

That is a very fitting name.” Raiden Ei nodded thoughtfully.

Thinking about it carefully, this thing indeed fits Snezhnaya very well.

If Mu Yang took this sun disc before the Tsaritsa, the Tsaritsa would probably spare no cost to obtain this sun disc from Mu Yang’s hands.

Even if it meant offering herself, it would be no exception.

“Forget it, I’ll go over and take a look first. Soldiers come, generals block; water comes, earth covers. If they are really plotting something, it’s not something we can solve by guessing here.” Mu Yang thought for a moment, and without avoiding Raiden Ei, he began to tidy up his clothes in front of her.

This scene left Raiden Ei stunned. Although Raiden Ei knew that she would eventually be Mu Yang’s woman, is it really okay for you to change clothes in front of me like this?

I suspect you are harassing me!

Although I am an Archon, I really don’t pay much attention to these things.

However, in front of Mu Yang, Raiden Ei couldn’t say much, and instead appeared quite calm.

This also made Mu Yang sigh inwardly; as expected of the Raiden Shogun, even when facing him like this, she could remain calm.

Mu Yang felt that he might need to continue challenging Raiden Ei’s bottom line later.

After all, bottom lines and such, Mu Yang felt they could still be discovered through constant probing. If Raiden Ei really changed her bottom line because of him, or set it very low, then for him, it would also be a good thing.

After tidying up his clothes, Mu Yang opened a space channel and headed toward Sumeru.

“Paimon, are you really okay?” Lumine asked with concern, looking at Paimon, who had turned into a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old.

Σ(Д), they were just here to block the spring, but Paimon had grown bigger directly.

Paimon, this fellow, is worthy of being Asmoday’s sister; they look almost eighty percent similar.

It’s just that Lumine didn’t know if Paimon would have problems because of this, if the erosion would intensify, and then she would forget about her as well.

Honestly, Lumine still cared about Paimon as a partner.

She had previously determined that Paimon wouldn’t be hurt, which is why she did this.

“I’m fine, it’s just so hot!!” Paimon scratched her head: “My brain is also dizzy.”

“If you really can’t stand it, then leave here first.” Lumine reminded Paimon.

“I can still hold on.” Paimon shook her head and looked at the sun disc in the sky again, her gaze deep, as if she were thinking about something.

“Paimon, can you move this sun away?

Even I can’t stand this sun; if this continues, Sumeru will be in danger.” Lumine asked hurriedly upon seeing Paimon like this.

If the sun were gone, she and Paimon wouldn’t need to block here anymore.

She also didn’t know how Nahida was doing. One had to know, the other party was the Scarlet King Al-Ahmar, a famous powerhouse on the continent of Teyvat.

What they should be considering now was not protecting Sumeru, but going to help Nahida after resolving the sun in the sky.

“It seems we don’t need to take action.” Paimon shook her head slightly and looked at the space gate that had opened not far away.

As expected of Mu Yang; this spatial ability is already even above Asmoday’s.

“This dog man is here?” Looking at Mu Yang walking out of the space gate, Lumine’s face lit up with joy, even though there was no life-threatening danger right now.

But if this matter could be resolved as soon as possible, it would naturally be for the best.

As for whether Mu Yang could beat Al-Ahmar.

On this point, no one doubted it.

And Mu Yang was also stunned at this moment.

Especially after seeing the situation of Lumine and Paimon, he didn’t know how to complain.

Lumine was physically blocking the energy beam; although Mu Yang couldn’t quite understand it, he could accept it, but my Paimon, how did she suddenly become so big?

Come to think of it, being hit by such powerful energy, if it were an ordinary person, they would probably be reduced to ashes in an instant. Now, Lumine and Paimon didn’t even have their clothes damaged.
