Chapter 369: Which cadre could withstand such a test?
Raiden Makoto was the benefactor who saved Gu Chen.
But Gu Chen was clearly more familiar with Kitsune Saigu.
This cunning Miss Fox had not only taught Gu Chen the language of Teyvat, but also how to use pastries to handle Raiden Ei.
Gu Chen gradually began to lean toward Kitsune Saigu's cunning side as well.
This made Raiden Makoto feel both helpless and amused.
As the days passed, Gu Chen recovered better and better.
"Tell me, how did you get injured in the first place?" Kitsune Saigu couldn't help but be curious.
Gu Chen looked very weak, but there was no doubt that the power in his right arm was immense; Gu Chen even stated bluntly that he could rely on this power to live for who knows how many years.
This alone made Kitsune Saigu realize Gu Chen's strength.
If he was already this strong, yet had drifted on the sea and taken so many days to recover, then how strong were the enemies he had encountered?
"Guess?"
Gu Chen raised an eyebrow.
"Hey, you brat!"
Kitsune Saigu choked for a moment, rolled her eyes in annoyance, and said, "Spit it out!"
"That might disappoint you," Gu Chen laughed. "I didn't get this way from fighting anyone; I simply stepped into thin air, fell into a spatial turbulence, and kept tumbling... and when I woke up, I was at the Grand Narukami Shrine."
"Spatial turbulence?"
After a brief moment of thought, Kitsune Saigu exclaimed in awe, "You're quite the survivor!"
"That's right!"
A look of smugness appeared on Gu Chen's face as he said, "If I weren't a survivor, how could I have drifted all the way here?"
Kitsune Saigu nodded in deep agreement.
With Gu Chen's level of strength, even if Raiden Makoto hadn't found him, he likely wouldn't have drowned.
Speaking of which, Kitsune Saigu was curious: "Who is stronger, you or Ei?"
Gu Chen paused, thought seriously for a while, and then shook his head: "We haven't fought, so it's hard to say."
"How about I set you two up?" Kitsune Saigu asked with a smile.
Gu Chen looked up at her, noticing the cunning glint in her eyes; clearly, this fox was thinking of something interesting.
Gu Chen shook his head and said, "I haven't fully recovered yet. Even if I were at my peak, I wouldn't be a match for the Musou no Hitotachi, would I?"
"How would you know without trying?" Kitsune Saigu said.
"Let's wait until I'm better. It'll also be a good chance to test if I can protect myself in this world with my current strength." Gu Chen agreed.
Time flew by.
Gu Chen's injuries were recovering neither fast nor slow.
The nature of the injuries caused by such an experience meant that Raiden Makoto and the others couldn't find a way to heal him quickly, so they could only let him recover slowly.
Fortunately, Gu Chen was now almost fully recovered.
"Although I haven't returned to my absolute peak, it's enough. After all, how can anyone maintain a peak state at all times?" Gu Chen laughed.
"Are you sure?"
Raiden Ei was lost in thought.
The power within Gu Chen greatly interested Raiden Ei.
