Chapter 483
Celestia might turn a blind eye to the matter of the Gnosis, but it still cared very much about the system of the Seven Archons.
Just like thousands of years ago, Celestia convened the Archon War.
The ultimate purpose was still to suppress the ley lines. Before the Seven Archons appeared, the ley lines of the entire Teyvat continent were extremely chaotic.
At that time, there were far more monsters than in the period when Mu Yang appeared and the ley lines of Teyvat were chaotic and monsters were frequent.
Just like the situation that appeared in Mondstadt, it had also appeared in history.
This was also the main reason why humans sought the protection of gods; after all, in that era, the Gnosis hadn’t been distributed, let alone the Vision.
Ordinary people really didn’t have any strength.
Humans were simply no match for monsters.
The system of the Seven Archons was also necessary. Once an accident occurred with the divinity, not to mention what attitude Heavenly Principles and Celestia would have, the ley lines of the country, and even the ley lines of the entire Teyvat continent, would have problems.
Of course, if it were a fully-fledged Dragon, it could also suppress the ley lines.
Just like Azhdaha, his external identity was the incarnation of the mountains and ley lines of Does Does Liyue; he was very good at suppressing ley lines.
And Dvalin, when he had problems, the ley lines of Mondstadt also had problems…
(I got up early in the morning and was asked all kinds of questions about keyboards. The author is a keyboard enthusiast and usually buys a lot, but being asked like this is annoying… I have to study for a few days just to buy a keyboard, and I have to drag others to keep asking, which affects my typing. So angry!
Then I opened Genshin, and the computer crashed… begging).
Of course, it's not that a nation can't function without a Dragon Sovereign.
The main thing is that there must be either a Dragon Sovereign or a god, and preferably a god, since Dragon Sovereigns aren't part of the system under Celestia.
Moreover, Phanes wouldn't have allowed another Dragon Sovereign to exist under his nose before.
That was absolutely intolerable.
Therefore, after Focalors stated her plan, both Mu Yang and Asmoday felt speechless.
If Phanes had already fallen into a deep sleep or perished, it would be one thing, but if Phanes wasn't dead or gone, Focalors' behavior wouldn't just potentially doom Fontaine—even Neuvillette would be finished if he wasn't careful.
Asmoday and Phanes might allow a Dragon Sovereign to linger on, but they wouldn't allow a Dragon Sovereign to become a full-fledged Dragon Sovereign.
But Al-Ahmar wasn't a Dragon Sovereign; he was just an Archon, and it was already quite impressive for him to reach that level.
And if Phanes and Celestia had both fallen into a deep sleep at this time, Al-Ahmar jumping out now could really cause a huge commotion.
According to the original plot, the Seven Archons were all ready to quit.
There weren't many Archons who truly wanted to work for Phanes.
If Al-Ahmar wanted to stir up trouble, he might really be able to do it.
However, the other Seven Archons probably wouldn't ignore what Al-Ahmar was doing.
After all, it was already damaging the interests of their nations.
If the Seven Archons cooperated, they could still slap Al-Ahmar to death.
But it might result in heavy losses.
"Your strength is stronger than I imagined, but if it's you, I can actually understand." Mu Yang walked toward Al-Ahmar step by step, his tone indifferent.
"Huhu, you are strong.
I have never seen anyone stronger than you." Al-Ahmar panted, looking at Mu Yang with shock and madness.
"I am powerful; I understand this, I don't need you to acknowledge it." Mu Yang chuckled: "I'm curious, why did you resurrect, and what do you want to do?"
Al-Ahmar was silent for a moment; he looked at Mu Yang, then at Nahida behind him, and after hesitating for a while, said: "We want to defeat the Heavenly Principles and the curse the Heavenly Principles has placed on this world.
With your strength, you should also be able to notice that this sky is false.
Phanes has deceived everyone.
We were born as gods; why must we linger on under Phanes's command?"
"Is this the 'how can a great man live in the world and be willing to live under others for long?'" Mu Yang was a bit dazed, looking at Al-Ahmar speechlessly.
"It seems one could say that.
Indeed, I am not the type of person to be honest." Al-Ahmar nodded slightly, then looked toward the sky and said: "However, I didn't expect that Celestia wouldn't have any movement, but instead, two special people appeared.
Oh, no, it's three people. Your strength is very powerful, even stronger than the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles I know.
And you haven't had any trouble until now; it seems something really happened to Celestia."
"Did the Goddess of Flowers tell you all this?" Mu Yang narrowed his eyes; it had that flavor.
This Goddess of Flowers was a schemer!
"She told me a little." Al-Ahmar nodded slightly: "Of course, there is also what I researched myself.
Over these years, I haven't been doing nothing in the Golden Dreamland."
"It seems you are indeed an ambitious guy, but you have harmed Teyvat, so I must eliminate you; you are too dangerous to this world." Mu Yang nodded, acknowledging Al-Ahmar.
This guy was too dangerous; the first time he caused trouble, he created forbidden knowledge and killed Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.
If it weren't for Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's proper handling, all of Teyvat would have been finished.
The second time he caused trouble, he absorbed a large amount of ley line energy; now Venti outside was already over two hundred degrees Celsius.
Even in Sumeru City, the temperature was almost exceeding 50 degrees.
This temperature was unacceptable to the vast majority of humans.
However, there was one point that Mu Yang didn't know how to complain about.
That was that the physical fitness of those illuminated by this sunlight had improved to varying degrees.
This improvement wasn't fast, but it was indeed an improvement.
Of course, Mu Yang couldn't maintain this sun forever.
After all, for Teyvat, this thing did more harm than good; ley line energy is limited.
If it's used too much, the entire Teyvat will become a barren land.
Mu Yang absolutely wouldn't allow such a thing to happen; he needed to absorb the power of the Abyss to complete Teyvat, yet Al-Ahmar wanted to stir up trouble.
Facing such a person, it would be strange if Mu Yang had a good temper.
I'm dangerous? Al-Ahmar didn't know what to say at this moment.
He felt that the guy in front of him was much more dangerous than himself.
At the very least, he definitely couldn't beat the guy in front of him; if he let the other party deal with Celestia, it might not be impossible.
"Alright, I should send you on your way.
The farce here must be resolved as soon as possible; rest assured, I will go send the Goddess of Flowers on her way later." Mu Yang finished speaking, and without giving Al-Ahmar a chance to speak, he slashed directly at Al-Ahmar.
He had just finished discussing life with Raiden Ei and was enjoying himself, only to be interrupted by Al-Ahmar.
Damn it, Mu Yang expressed that he was very angry, the consequences were very serious, and he directly wiped Al-Ahmar out!
"Wait..." Seeing Mu Yang so decisive, Al-Ahmar was shocked and hurriedly wanted to stop Mu Yang.
It wasn't that he was afraid of death; if Al-Ahmar were really afraid of death, he wouldn't have thought about counterattacking the Heavenly Principles.
It was just that he had many things he wanted to say, and Mu Yang said that after killing him, he would go kill the Goddess of Flowers.
What did this damn man want to do to Nabuu Malikata?
No, absolutely couldn't let the other party hurt Nabuu Malikata.
Seeing Mu Yang kill him decisively, Al-Ahmar erupted his aura to the maximum and met Mu Yang.
It seemed stronger than before; should he say, as expected of Teyvat's number one simp!
Mu Yang's mind condensed, and he didn't hesitate, erupting his aura; the aura he erupted at this moment was actually even stronger than when he erupted in Khaenri'ah, and he slashed toward Al-Ahmar...
"Boom!" The blade light mixed with seven-colored light instantly submerged Al-Ahmar's body and attacked the door behind him.
That seemingly indestructible door was instantly crushed into powder when facing Mu Yang's strike.
Seeing this scene, Nahida was stunned.
Σ(Д), was this strike of Mu Yang even more "Musou" than the Musou no Hitotachi?
Would his Sumeru be cut into a middle part by Mu Yang?
Looking into the distance, the wall with a huge hole had appeared, and the location where the Golden Dreamland was had completely disappeared.
Obviously, that space had also been completely erased by Mu Yang.
"Is he dead?" Nahida asked stammeringly.
After all, before, when fighting Al-Ahmar, she had spent a lot of effort and only barely managed to hold Al-Ahmar back.
This also made Nahida very guilty; it seemed she couldn't do anything well.
"Don't feel guilty; Al-Ahmar was still very strong; he was stronger than in his prime." Seeming to feel Nahida's emotions, Mu Yang comforted her softly: "It's not just you; even Greater Lord Rukkhadevata was no match.
Even the Asmoday of the past wouldn't have found it easy to eliminate Al-Ahmar."
