Chapter 226

Furina: "Wounds to the heart hurt the most. My husband is truly the warmest 'six-zero-zero' man."

Buer: "Sister Furina, he is everyone's husband."

Hu Tao: "Hey, isn't this the time to talk about Su Bai being everyone's husband? The An Ding Zhenjun in the light screen seems truly stunned by the future."

Zhong Li: "Director, do you not care to check on your future self? Judging by your condition, it seems you won't last much longer."

Hu Tao: "It doesn't matter. An Ding Zhenjun has already gone to the future."

Cloud Retainer: "Hmph, as long as that fellow goes, it is fine."

Ganyu: "Yes, I just didn't expect to have a life where I could become a senior sister of a Reincarnator. I am quite satisfied."

Ningguang: "I can also be counted as someone who signed a contract with Mr. Su Bai since childhood."

Keqing: "I... ah, luckily we share a love for Golden Silk Shrimp Balls. I wonder if Su Bai of this life still likes them."

Su Bai: "I am right here in Liyue Harbor, yet none of you have offered to treat me to a meal. (Sigh · Venti)"

Arataki Itto: "Hahaha, Hu Tao was right. Wherever Su Bai is, even if it is very sad, it instantly makes people laugh."

Osial: "Su Ye is so pitiful. He has been playing on the slide for a long time, Klee is almost asleep, and no one has come over to look at him once."

Shenhe: "(Stare · Shenhe)"

Eula: "Don't laugh. I just shed tears, and you are being weird again. Su Bai, really, why did you suddenly interrupt?"

Venti: "Let Zhong Li treat you, Old Su. With our status, the Geo Archon must personally host us."

Zhong Li: "Ah, it seems I must temporarily break my principles and create a few Mora for a meal to treat everyone."

Venti: "Wait a moment, I am coming."

Paimon: "I guessed things would turn out this way."

【"The Liyue of now is no longer the Liyue of the past."】

【"An Ding Zhenjun, I truly do not know what your feelings would be seeing Liyue as it is now."】

【"Is the place you went to Hell, or is the world we are in Hell?"】

【"Hu Tao can no longer tell the difference."】

【"After accepting the fact of your death, even so, everyone is still striving to live."】

【"So you must also live well in that world."】

【"Do not worry. Hu Tao will actually leave here and go to the world you are in very soon."】

【"Hu Tao is about to be liberated."】

【"..."】

【"Su Bai's mind was filled with Hu Tao's mutterings after her worship."】

【"Only as he wandered the streets of Liyue did he truly understand the meaning in Hu Tao's words, and the so-called human hell spoken of by that mysterious woman."】

【"The once bustling Liyue Harbor is now in utter ruin."】

【"A gentle breeze blows, stirring up clouds of dust."】

【"Even in the corners of the streets, one can see things lying motionless like corpses."】

【"People wrap themselves in sheets, acting nervously."】

【"Upon seeing Su Bai, they fled in terror everywhere."】

Although Su Bai's interruption just now had slightly eased the atmosphere in the live stream.

But the content appearing on the light screen instantly dragged everyone's mood back to the depths.

Is the land Su Bai stepped on truly the prosperous Liyue Harbor of the past?

If not for a few iconic buildings standing in ruins, no one would take this for Liyue Harbor.

The streets are full of dust and rubble, and all the windows of the houses are shattered.

If not for a few terrified people fleeing on the streets, anyone would take this place for a dead city.

In fact, it is already not much different from a dead city.

Buer: "Hmm, this... is this really Liyue in the future? This..."

Neuvillette: "Impossible. What has Liyue encountered? Why has it become this scene?"

Zhong Li: "What on earth is going on?"

Ningguang: "This... Liyue... why has Liyue become this way?"

Yuan Shang: "Could it be that they encountered an invasion from another world again?"

Aether: "It shouldn't be. If Su Bai's strength truly died from a battle due to an invasion from another world, figures from that other world possessing such power could easily flatten Liyue Harbor. Yet the Liyue in the light screen is clearly desolate due to a long lack of living people's presence."

Baizhu: "I understand. Judging from Director Hu Tao's mental state, she must have contracted a certain curse. I think it is not just her; those lying motionless in the corners must have also died because of the curse."

Alhaitham: "Understood. Just like the Dead Zones spreading under forbidden knowledge."

Kujou Sara: "Then they could have found a way to live elsewhere. Our Teyvat nations are not just Liyue; I imagine everyone would have found ways to cope."

Dai Yin: "No. For a disaster of this level, other nations would be afraid too."

Yae Miko: "I do not think it is that simple. Perhaps other nations, like Liyue, have also suffered a calamity of drowning proportions. Otherwise, how could it have alarmed the Sky Island? The matter is absolutely more terrible than it appears now."

Lynette: "Ah, it is already terrifying now. Will things get even worse?"

【"Su Bai wandered the streets of Liyue Harbor."】

【"Just as Hu Tao said, what would Su Bai think if he saw such a scene?"】

【"Su Bai felt his mind was completely empty."】

【"That mysterious woman who brought him to the future gave no explanation either."】

【"The feeling Hu Bai gave Su Bai was that she was on the verge of death; Su Bai dared not rashly go and disturb her."】

【"For a moment, Su Bai was lost on the streets of Liyue."】

【"Damn..."】

"What exactly has happened?"

Su Bai bit his lip.

If this truly is Liyue's future, then the Liyue he is in will inevitably become the same.

To prevent all this from happening, Su Bai's primary task is to find the cause behind it all.

But the streets were filled with nothing but corpses and people gone mad.

At this moment, even Su Bai felt a headache coming on.

"Yo, where did this young man come from?"

"Your dress and appearance are quite flashy."

"Hand over all the Mora in your hands to me right now."

At this critical moment, the arrogant voice gave Su Bai a glimmer of hope.

He looked up.

About a dozen masked men approached; judging by their attire, they were clearly members of the Treasure Hoarders.

Unfortunately, they didn't seem to be very intelligent.

"Boss, robbing Mora is useless to us now."

"Yeah, Boss. In this environment, if we want to survive, we need to rob food."

"I don't want to go to... ah... it's too terrifying."

"Ah, right, right. Young man, hand over the food in your hands immediately, or we'll have to stew you to feed my brothers."

Fortunately, there were a few subordinates with their wits about them.

Su Bai felt as if he had met a savior, instantly on the verge of tears.

Keqing: "Ah, I can imagine what kind of Liyue this is; it's truly a living hell."

Hu Tao: "Ah... I finally understand why my future self was crying. Perhaps death is the only release, but I would rather see the bustling Liyue Harbor of the past."

Cloud Retainer: "Oh dear, this Old Immortal's heart can hardly take it."

Nahida: "But I discovered something truly remarkable! In this environment, the people of Liyue are actually offering Su Bai Golden Shrimp Balls?"

Azhdaha: "Hmph! This is what us Liyue people should do."

Tianquan Ningguang: "No wonder the graves of others are all empty. Those who offered to Su Bai must have regarded him as more important than their own lives."

Tianquan Ningguang: "It's a pity I am already by Su Bai's left side."

Keqing: "I am on the right."

Lisa: "Even if Su Bai is dead, he still gets to be embraced on both sides."
