Chapter 79: Blame your brother for causing trouble

~9 min read 1,733 words

"As a traveler from another world, you appeared within Mondstadt. As the Anemo Archon Barbatos, it is a very normal thing for me to pay attention to you, right?" Venti shrugged and said: "I need to determine your character, whether you would be harmful to Mondstadt!"

"So, Venti, you usually disguise yourself as a bard to make it easier to approach others?" Paimon asked Venti with curiosity.

"You could say that!" Venti looked at Lumine with a solemn expression: "After all, although the Traveler's strength is still very weak now, I can feel that the Traveler was once a powerhouse, just that you have lost your power."

"Then do you know a god with white hair?

Once, when my brother and I were about to leave this world, we were stopped by that person.

She also took my brother away!" After hesitating for a while, Lumine still asked Venti.

Venti looked at Mu Yang with a strange expression. It seemed that person was the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles.

Now, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles was Mu Yang’s subordinate.

If Lumine knew about this, he wondered what kind of expression she would show.

"It wasn't Mu Yang; that was a female god!" Lumine shook her head slightly: "My brother and I look very much alike, and he also has yellow hair.

It is very easy to tell that we are siblings, especially for you, the Anemo Archon; you should be able to feel that our auras are very similar."

"Your brother?" After hesitating slightly, Venti said: "I once saw your brother in the Abyss!"

"My brother... in the Abyss?" Lumine’s pupils couldn't help but shrink upon hearing this.

Lumine was naturally very knowledgeable about the Abyss. In any world, the Abyss was an enemy of the world.

Why would her brother be in the Abyss?

He should know how terrifying the Abyss is!

Moreover, with their constitution, as long as they didn't voluntarily fall into the Abyss, even the power of the Abyss couldn't do anything to them.

"Was he captured by the Abyss? Is that white-haired god an enemy of the Abyss?" Lumine asked with a frown.

"No, that white-haired god should be a guardian of this world. There are some things I cannot say. I can only tell you that five hundred years ago, your brother and a group of people caused a huge calamity in this world, which brought in the power of the Abyss!

Perhaps that is why that god stopped you from leaving," Venti said with a serious tone.

Venti had some goodwill toward Lumine, but toward Aether, Venti had no goodwill at all.

Perhaps the other party's original intention was good, wanting to help the nation of Khaenri'ah develop.

But the world is different; some knowledge might be fine in other worlds, but in the continent of Teyvat, it would bring huge trouble. After all, this is not a perfect world to begin with!

It was precisely because of their development and research that the power of the Abyss was brought in, which led to the subsequent calamity.

After causing trouble, Aether wanted to take Lumine away, and being blocked by the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles seemed like a very normal thing.

Caused trouble and wanted to leave?

How could it be that easy?

"Is it because my brother caused trouble?" Lumine fell into deep thought upon hearing this.

She remembered that after arriving in this world, she seemed to have been sleeping the whole time, and then after being awakened by her brother, he was in a hurry to take her away from this world, only to be blocked by that white-haired god, she was sealed, and her brother was taken away.

"Where can I find that white-haired god?" After pondering for a moment, Lumine continued to ask Venti.

"That is not something I can decide. In terms of position, the other party is above us; after all, we are only the Seven Archons," Venti said with a self-deprecating smile.

Everyone thought that they, the Seven Archons, had supreme status on the continent of Teyvat.

But only they knew that when facing the Heavenly Principles, they, the Seven Archons, were also helpless.

Seeing Lumine lost in thought, Venti continued: "Traveler, when you set out on your journey again, you must remember the meaning of the journey itself.

The birds, poems, and city-states of Teyvat, the Tsaritsa, the Fatui, and the monsters—all are part of your journey.

The destination does not mean everything.

Before reaching the destination, use your eyes to observe this world more!"

Venti’s abrupt words made Lumine think of more things. She looked deeply at Venti and said: "Thank you. I will go to other nations to find information about my brother, especially regarding what happened five hundred years ago."

Venti chuckled: "Traveler, the power of the Abyss is very strong and dangerous. I hope you do not overly contact the Abyss before you have the corresponding power!"

"Thank you, I also have some understanding of the power of the Abyss!" Lumine nodded slightly. She looked at Mu Yang on the side: "Mu Yang, you have a high status in Does Does Liyue, so can you introduce me to the Geo Archon?"

"The Geo Archon Morax?" Mu Yang shook his head slightly: "Sorry, although Morax and I are friends, I cannot introduce him to you.

I have a contract with him and cannot reveal his identity."

"Is that so?" Lumine didn't force it upon hearing this. She and Mu Yang could be considered friends; if possible, she believed Mu Yang wouldn't refuse such a small matter.

However, she could pay attention to the people around Mu Yang later.

In Mondstadt, Mu Yang’s relationship with the Anemo Archon seemed quite good, so what about in Does Does Liyue?

Perhaps someone who has a good relationship with Mu Yang is actually the Geo Archon.

"I am leaving Mondstadt immediately.

What about you?" Seeing that Lumine didn't force it, Mu Yang nodded slightly and asked.

He didn't tell Lumine that her brother had been right there, watching her fight Dvalin, and that even this incident was orchestrated by Aether.

If she knew, Lumine would probably fall into guilt.

This was a real war, even though the characters Mu Yang was familiar with had no casualties.

But in reality, Mondstadt had paid quite a price for this defensive battle.

The Knights of Favonius lost quite a few knights. Although there were many "bad apples" and slackers among them, when the war came and Jean led from the front, no one dared to retreat.

If they retreated, their home might be destroyed.

Moreover, with so many people in Mondstadt watching, this was a rhythm of leaving a bad name for ten thousand years!

The Knights of Favonius lost at least 20 knights, and at least thirty knights suffered significant injuries.

0

At the same time, the losses on the side of the Church of Favonius were also not small.

However, these could be considered the two groups with the greatest losses. Although their quality was the best, they were also the ones leading from the front.

Originally, Mu Yang intended to pull Lumine into the chat group; after all, Lumine was indeed a good tool.

On the continent of Teyvat, as long as a question mark appears above your head, there will be a blonde girl with her flying pet running thousands of miles to help.

This legend is not just talk!

In the future, if they are to fight the Abyss, Lumine will also become a main force.

However, now is not the time to pull Lumine into the group; at least it should be after Lumine runs to Does Does Liyue.

"Are you going to Does Does Liyue?" Paimon was surprised to hear this. Paimon had a good impression of Mu Yang.

Whether it was the sense of closeness for no reason, or the fact that the other party always gave her delicious food.

Now hearing that Mu Yang was leaving, Paimon was somewhat reluctant.

"Me? I should still stay in Mondstadt for a while." Lumine looked at Venti: "Now the Ley Lines of Mondstadt are still chaotic.

I heard from Acting Grand Master Jean that the temples of the Four Winds have been occupied by the Abyss Order. Only by eliminating them can the Ley Lines of Mondstadt be stabilized.

Otherwise, no matter how many monsters we eliminate, they will reappear in a short time.

Since I am already an Honorary Knight of Mondstadt, I have a responsibility to help them!"

"The temples of the Four Winds?

That place does indeed need to be cleared.

I can't help with this matter, because I exhausted all my divine power in the war back then, which led to me falling into a deep sleep.

Now that I have finally awakened, I have exhausted the divine power I accumulated over these years.

After that, I will need your help." Venti scratched his head awkwardly: "For a long time to come, I probably won't appear as Barbatos again."

Lumine gave Venti a look that said, "Guess if I believe you."

However, thinking of the strength Venti had shown before, she didn't think much of it; this seemed far from the Anemo Archon in Mondstadt’s legends.

Perhaps this guy really had lost a lot of power!

"By the way, that move you used before..." Lumine looked at Mu Yang with hesitation.

"Is it the Rasenshuriken? I created it based on a character in a manga.

If you want to use it, go ahead, but with the elemental power you control now, you probably can't use this move." Mu Yang waved his hand.

He had already uploaded how to use this move to the group mall for 1000 points.

It was just that it seemed no one liked this move; even Jean, a user of an Anemo Vision, hadn't learned it.

Perhaps it was because her own elemental power was insufficient, or perhaps because this move was too violent.

"Is that so?" Lumine was stunned upon hearing this. She seemed to have heard of this move; so it was a move from a manga!!

It was just that she had forgotten most of these things.

These were things from hundreds, or even thousands of years ago. It would be a strange thing if she still remembered.
