Chapter 172

~6 min read 1,182 words

Took quite a few detours.

Su Bai the Great Sage, in order to bring back Ye Er, the once kind-hearted him learned to deprive others of their lives.

He, an immortal kind who had already "570" acquired power, nevertheless modified his own body for the sake of the plan.

Until the very end, the collapse of his body along with the shattering of his consciousness, only to exchange for Ye Er who could extend merely five hundred years of time.

Because Su Bai changed the world, breaking the predetermined program of the Sky Island, affecting Lumine's path to save the world.

So at the moment when Lumine was supposed to appear, everything would return to the route paved for Lumine's journey.

The world restarted.

Teyvat experienced everything throughout the past once again, welcoming Lumine's appearance.

Mo Na: "This feeling is as if the Sky Island fooled Mr. Su Bai's fate; it is too regrettable."

Alice: "Sigh..."

Yuan Shang: "It doesn't matter; Su Ye will go to Dengdao to get his revenge."

Osial: "Yes, it's just unclear for whom Su Ye goes to Dengdao."

Su Bai: "For Teyvat, I offer my heart. (covering face)"

Klee: "For Teyvat, I offer my heart."

Jean: "(covering face)"

Yuan Shang: "Damn it, the Acting Grand Master Jean of Mondstadt is absolutely double-standard."

Inside Su Bai's home.

Furina, dissatisfied, glared with red eyes and viciously pinched Su Bai.

"Do not speak nonsense; words like offering one's heart are too inauspicious."

"This is just a joke," Su Bai gently stroked Furina's head.

"You made that joke," Furina said with a sigh: "Seeing your body dried with blood already makes my heart ache terribly."

"In the end, unexpectedly, consciousness was slowly shattering, then turning into nothingness."

"Can't this Reincarnation System cut out such scenes?"

"Who could bear to watch their beloved suffer this kind of pain every day?"

"Sigh." Lumine, even more sorrowful, held her forehead.

"That sword was still thrust by me; fortunately, afterwards, I did not continue to go mad, otherwise I could not forgive myself."

At the same time the words hit the ground.

Lumine's gaze, along with Furina's, turned toward Su Bai who was comforting Furina.

Both simultaneously saw the same Such thoughts in each other's gazes.

"Um..."

Furina asked first.

"Hmm?" Su Bai was stunned for a moment.

"I wanted to ask, you..."

Lumine quickly added: "I once saw Raiden Makoto Barbatos plant the seed of the Sacred Sakura in the future in Inazuma, saving the past Inazuma..."

Su Bai: "....."

Seeing the worried look on the other's face.

Su Bai could roughly guess what the other wanted to ask.

They were probably afraid that he would suddenly disappear before them just as the Reincarnation System played.

Or rather, as a Reincarnator.

When the Reincarnation System finishes playing all the content, Su Bai will, like the first exposure, consume all his power to maintain Teyvat.

Just as Lumine said, Su Bai will consume power in the future to save the past, which is the present Teyvat.

"Uh..."

"You have Such thoughts too many," Su Bai said with a smile: "With so many beauties accompanying me, I still want to live for a very, very long time."

Seeing that the two did not seem to buy it.

Su Bai hurriedly stood up and spoke seriously and directly: "Rest a hundred thousand times assured, I will definitely be fine."

"Moreover, Furina still promised to bear me ten children; her belly hasn't changed yet, how can I be so willing to leave?"

Upon hearing this, Furina's face immediately turned red with shame.

She immediately refuted: "Hey hey hey, such words cannot be said in front of them."

Furina and Lumine were also amused by Su Bai's joke.

Seeing this, Su Bai finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The imagined battlefield of demons did not appear.

Perhaps, all this was precisely because his tall, upright, gentle, and considerate image from his past life moved them.

But the Reincarnation System always plays such past-life scenes; it is Nanmian Society to make people worry.

After all, the first cycle's self sacrificed the Sky Island, and the third cycle's self became entangled with the Sky Island.

The final outcome ended in tragedy in both cases.

Not only that, two of the three cycles involved Teyvat constantly falling into reincarnation, which indeed gives people a subtle worry.

Perhaps Lumine and the others also worry that upon waking up, they will find themselves back in the past.

At this moment, from the high heavens, the familiar mechanical light sound slowly fell.

【The third cycle story has ended.】

【Rewards are being distributed; please wait...】

【Settlement complete.】

【Congratulations, Su Bai, on receiving your reward.】

【Reward: Your floating island's area has expanded tenfold. Reward: A three-story mansion of a thousand ping (the mansion's architectural style can change at will). Reward: An endless bag of gold (possessing infinite wealth to spend, the amount spent determined by your thoughts).】

【Congratulations, Su Bai, on obtaining the title: Teyvat's Richest Man.】

Su Bai: "???"

Venti: "???"

Pantalone: "Huh? An endless bag of gold? This is possible?"

Ningguang: "Help! Has Mr. Su Bai obtained the same ability as the Geo Archon to possess endless Mora?"

Zhong Li: "Generally speaking, Mr. Su Bai possesses endless Mora. Could you help me balance the books for the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor? (Facepalm)"

Hu Tao: "Geo Archon, how can you have the nerve to say that?"

Su Bai: "Uh, actually, I seem to not need that much money."

After all, the floating island has everything; even clothes don't need to be bought.

Various styles can be swapped at will in front of the dressing mirror.

Venti: "Su Ye, come visit Mondstadt when you have time; I'll treat you to Dandelion Wine."

Dvalin: "Alright, Barbatos, your scheme is bouncing right off my face."

Yae Miko: "No, let's not talk about the Mora issue first. Why did your island grow ten times larger again? Fifty thousand ping, what's the point of needing two mansions?"

Lumine: "Heh, two mansions is too many?"

Furina: "Oh my, is the other one perhaps prepared for the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata of Sumeru? She might not be used to Fontaine's house styles."

Nahida: "Yes, it must be for the Greater Lord Rukkhadevata. Lumine, when the time comes, can you let me go too?"

Nilou: "Lesser Lord Kusanali, this... if you leave, what will happen to Sumeru?"

Nahida: "With Alhaitham and Cyno, it is guaranteed to be no problem."

Alhaitham: "???"

Cyno: "This..."

Yuan Shang: "You are still lamenting the Su Ye of a past life; the Su Ye of this life, upon stepping out, gets lost and confused because his own courtyard is so large."

Yuan Shang: "We are all such clowns."

Osial: "Hehehe, dying of laughter. Who is a clown like you? Su Ye, Nengbuneng Gang, move the Golden House pressing down on me; I'll go be your gatekeeper."

Zhong Li: "....."

Ningguang: "That won't do. If I let you go, wasn't my smashing of the Golden House in vain?"

Azhdaha: "Morax, I have no more erosion. Unseal me, you pauper."

Zhong Li: "....."
