Chapter 44

"And since Fen-dan's prophecy is false, my past life must have ended terribly."

After the great flood.

The citizens of Fen-dan were not dissolved in the waters of the Womb Sea.

No one knows what truly happened behind the prophecy.

At the end of her journey, Lumine learned the full truth from Navia's mouth.

But even Furina herself did not know what Furcaros ultimately did.

She simply believed that as long as no one discovered she was a false goddess, Fen-dan would be saved.

Unfortunately, the final flood turned out to be a joke.

The destruction of Fen-dan and its dissolution into seawater, as foretold, never occurred—the prophecy was false.

Su Bai's bedroom.

Su Bai lay on the bed, quietly watching Lumine.

Although Lumine's beauty is not the highest in Teyvat.

Her figure is not as good as those older women.

But Lumine's beauty is enduring.

"You're amazing, Lumine..."

Su Bai gently patted Lumine.

"Stop messing around."

Lumine's attention was entirely drawn to the viewing system.

Fortunately, once the Lunhui story activated, her physical condition fully recovered.

Likewise, as she had suspected, Su Bai's Lunhui stories were not just one, nor did they involve only her.

What Lumine hadn't expected was that this Lunhui story took place in Fen-dan.

Thinking of Furina, who had endured five hundred years for Fen-dan.

Lumine's heart tightened slightly as she looked earnestly at Su Bai.

"I have something to say."

"I think it's necessary to tell you."

To Su Bai, Lumine made no secret of what she had seen and heard during her travels in Fen-dan.

Especially about Furina.

She told Su Bai everything she knew.

Su Bai naturally knew everything about Furina.

Still, he pretended to hear it for the first time, sighing: "Ah, I never imagined she suffered so terribly, bearing five hundred years of pain alone."

"Yes, but I don't know what will happen in this cycle," Lumine said coolly. "If we follow our past-life experiences, the past-life Furina must have been very happy."

Su Bai: "....."

Should I say you're kind-hearted, or are you deliberately giving me a trick question?

Live stream room.

Paimon: "@Su Bai @Lumine, haven't you two finished talking yet? A new Lunhui story has begun."

Su Bai: "Mm, we're done. We'll head out soon."

Lumine: "(You're lucky this time.)"

Aether: "Hmph! What were you talking about? Took so long, and you didn't show up. Lumine, did he bully you?"

Lumine: "Don't worry—Su Bai is just as gentle as he was in our past lives."

Navia: "Let's get started already—I really want to see what Su Bai looks like as the Pope of Fen-dan."

Leo: "If he's Pope, his authority must be very high—at least on par with Navia my lord."

Navia: "No, strictly speaking, the Pope is the representative of divine authority—his power should surpass even the Supreme Judge. But I still retain the right to judge Su Bai."

Alhaitham: "Why do I feel like you're talking about a power struggle? The Water God of Fen-dan..."

Thomas: "I heard Fen-dan recently had a great flood, and the Water God resigned."

Xingqiu: "The Water God resigned?"

Teyvat: "Can a god even resign?"

Venti: "Hehe, finally found a god even more unreliable than me."

Barbara: "....."

Klee: "It's starting, it's starting! Hey, who's this big brother? Klee has never seen him before."

Clopin: "Leo?"

Leo: "??? "

【Fen-dan Court, Melusine Fortress.】

【Leo led a group of guards, surrounding a dozen men wearing hats.】

【"It's the Duke!"】

【"What's going on here?"】

【"This..."】

【Yanmao Society.】

【A long-established guild in Melusine Fortress.】

【"Your Grace, what is this?"】

【The guildmaster, Du Jiye, asked in confusion.】

Wriothesley said no more, his expression cold as he stated, "You, Du Jiye."

"You founded the Yanmao Society, used your position to brainwash and intimidate members, and sought to turn them into your personal property."

"I am here to deliver your judgment."

Judgment?

Du Jiye froze.

His gaze swept fiercely toward the Yanmao Society members surrounding him.

The meaning was clear: someone had reported him.

However, Du Jiye remained relatively calm.

He sneered, "My lord Duke, I know your status in the Fortress of Meropide, but there are also rules established by others here."

"I am the president of the Yanmao Society. It seems the rules of the Yanmao Society have not violated the rules of the Fortress of Meropide, have they?"

Wriothesley did not argue with Du Jiye, watching his performance in silence.

"Besides, everyone in the Fortress of Meropide is already a person sentenced to execution."

"Even though you are the Duke of the Fortress of Meropide, speaking of delivering a judgment to me seems..."

Du Jiye squinted and smiled.

Unless someone in the Fortress of Meropide committed a very serious crime, they, already being criminals themselves, would no longer be judged by the Hydro Archon or the Supreme Adjudicator.

Wriothesley, as the Duke of the Fortress of Meropide, naturally understood this point.

"Moreover, even if my lord Duke wishes to convict me, you must at least present evidence that conforms to the convictions of the Fortress of Meropide."

However, just as Du Jiye was feeling smug, a cold female voice sounded from the doorway.

Clorinde, with her magnificent chest, walked in holding a flintlock pistol, swaying with every step.

"Could the words of my lord Pope possibly be false?"
