Chapter 35: The Amos' Bow gifted to Ganyu! Every banquet must come to an end!

Hearing Luo Li did not have mind-reading powers and could not understand the girl's psychology.

He could only vaguely sense Ganyu's suppressed emotions.

Finally, it seemed she really couldn't hold back the question.

Ganyu asked cautiously, "Master, how long will you stay in Liyue this time?"

"Hmm, I'm not quite sure myself."

According to Hearing Hearing Luo Li plan, he would at most exchange pleasantries with his old friends in Liyue for a while before returning to Inazuma.

During this period, he would take the opportunity to give the people of Liyue appropriate warnings about the upcoming Abyssal disaster.

The most important of these was Ganyu; if his little disciple were to be buried in the Abyss, he simply could not accept it.

As his thoughts turned, Hearing Luo Li reached out, and suddenly a longbow glowing with flowing light appeared in his hand.

"This is?" Ganyu asked curiously.

Stroking the longbow with a look of deep nostalgia, Hearing Luo Li answered slowly.

"Its name is the Amos' Bow, a relic of a fellow traveler from a long time ago."

He had obtained it over two thousand years ago.

At that time, he had just transmigrated and was not yet strong enough, so he had to resist the Decarabian alongside a wisp of the thousand winds, a young boy, a red-haired knight, and the bow's original owner.

It was a tragedy, really; the owner of the bow had originally loved the Anemo Archon, but ended up hating him out of love.

Unfortunately, this unrequited love remained unknown to the Archon until her death.

The moment before she was torn apart by the gale, the owner of the bow handed it to Hearing Luo Li, hoping he could find a better master for it.

Thinking about it carefully, the continent of Teyvat is filled with tragedies everywhere.

His thoughts drifted, and as Hearing Luo Li stroked the bow, the masterless power contained within began to revive.

The bowstring hummed, as if in response.

"Now, I give it to you."

Hearing Luo Li, having activated the longbow, handed it to Ganyu.

Ganyu was stunned for a moment, then quickly attracted by the longbow's beautiful appearance, and couldn't help but stroke the bow body.

"I will treat it well."

Making a solemn vow, the girl held it in her arms.

This was a precious gift from Master, and it carried an extraordinary meaning; she would definitely cherish it carefully in the future.

Hearing Luo Li believed she would keep her word.

"Besides the bow, there is also this amulet."

Taking a jade pendant from his chest, he took the initiative to tie it around Ganyu's delicate neck.

Because they were close enough, he could faintly smell the faint body scent emanating from the girl.

Although shy, Ganyu hoped to keep this posture for a little longer.

Regrettably, Hearing Luo Li withdrew his hand quickly and instructed earnestly, "If you encounter danger, crush the jade pendant. It will form a sealing barrier around you that even an Archon cannot break within a quarter of an hour."

Feeling the jade pendant, still warm from Master's body, pressed tightly against the cleavage on her chest, Ganyu didn't hear a word Hearing Luo Li was saying; her mind was filled with unhealthy thoughts about being close to him.

With both hands pressing on the jade pendant tucked into the chest of her black pantyhose suit, her face became increasingly flushed.

Hearing Luo Li could never have imagined that while he was worried about her safety, his well-behaved little disciple was thinking about how to "rebel against her master."

Having finally returned to normal, Ganyu, who had come to her senses, was frighteningly red-faced. Not daring to look at Master's face, she gave a messy farewell and hurried back to where the adepti were.

Hearing Luo Li hadn't even reacted before he was dragged away by Barbatos to drink.

As cups clinked, jars of wine were continuously brought by the maids.

When the atmosphere was at its peak, many past events were recounted by the Seven, whether they were hidden treasures or secrets.

Answers that mortals would need a lifetime to search for were nothing more than after-dinner anecdotes for the Seven.

Even the usually steady Morax was quite unrestrained, accompanying everyone in reciting poetry and playing music.

Such behavior was quite novel in the eyes of the Qixing.

This was no wonder; except for Makoto and Ei, the Seven were usually high and mighty in their respective nations, unable to find a single confidant in the whole world.

Not to mention that even Makoto and Ei still had some secrets they couldn't tell, let alone other gods.

The gathering of the Seven was more like a place for them to speak their minds and relax among peers of equal status.

The banquet lasted until the moon rose and the sun set, and it was still lively.

The attending Qixing showed no sign of holding great power, willing to act as servants.

"Another one!"

Breathing out strong alcohol fumes, Barbatos smashed open the last jar of Immortal Drunkenness and issued an invitation to the gods.

This stuff was truly potent; one cup required a long time to recover, and if one kept going, even he would fall.

Makoto, who couldn't hold her liquor, shook her head with a wry smile and leaned against Ei's side, saying gently, "You all go ahead, I need to rest for a while."

The Hydro Archon and Dendro Archon followed suit.

Only the bold Pyro Archon and the cold Cryo Archon remained to fight.

The Geo Archon, as the host, naturally had no reason to back down, insisting on deciding a winner with the Wind Archon and Hearing Luo Li.

However, by the time the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the dawn was rising, they still hadn't reached a result.

Helplessly, they had to postpone the competition and decided to continue next time.

While cleaning up the mess, a tipsy Hearing Luo Li watched the Dendro, Pyro, Cryo, and Hydro Archons say their goodbyes one by one.

The Pyro Archon said lingeringly, "I don't believe there's so little Immortal Drunkenness left. Next time we meet, I'll definitely make you bring out some more."

"If we can still meet, what does it matter if I bring out all that's left next time?"

The deep meaning contained in Hearing Hearing Luo Li words was probably understood by only a few.

The Pyro Archon laughed and told him not to forget his promise.

When it was the Cryo Archon's turn, she just took a deep look at Hearing Luo Li and said nothing.

The Hydro Archon smiled slightly and nodded politely.

Finally, the Dendro Archon seemed to have something to say, but after hesitating, she ultimately said nothing.

With her wisdom and knowledge, she must have sensed something wrong, but it seemed she didn't dare to be certain.

"Then, let us part ways here."

The four gods came quietly and left gracefully.

After seeing off his colleagues, the half-drunk Wind Archon lay on the table and said muzzily, "I won't go back for now; I'll stay for the night."

Morax had no objections and prepared to have the Qixing send someone to take the Wind Archon to Yujing Terrace to rest.

After a night's rest, Makoto had almost recovered to normal, and she and Ei came to the side of the others one after another.

"Morax, Barbatos, Ei and I are heading back to Inazuma first."

Before leaving, she gave Hearing Luo Li a few instructions, and then she and Ei turned into lightning and tore through the sky.

Thus, only Hearing Luo Li, Morax, and Barbatos, who had known each other the longest, remained.
