【Aiwelson looked anxious.】

【“What’s wrong?”】

【Su Bai’s originally good mood was instantly swept away by Aiwelson’s anxiety.】

【He still understood his butler.】

【If it weren’t for some very troublesome matter, he wouldn’t show such an expression.】

【Moreover, he was holding a cat in his arms.】

【“Lord Pope, someone ambushed the Hydro Archon tonight.”】

【Su Bai: “!!!”】

Yoimiya: “Wow! Furina was ambushed?”

Kamisato Ayaka: “Could it be...”

Sangonomiya Kokomi: “It shouldn’t be wrong.”

Tartaglia: “Arlecchino? She just said she scared Furina into crying her eyes out.”

Arlecchino: “I was just testing her a little. I’m not stupid; how could I dare to kill Furina in Fontaine? At the very least, she is the Hydro Archon in the public eye.”

Lyney: “Ah, Father, that little test in the past life...”

Lynette: “It won’t affect this life, will it?”

Arlecchino: “@Su Bai, respected Mr. Su Bai, are you such a petty person?”

Su Bai: “Petty, extremely petty. Tell me, what should we do? How will you compensate my wounded heart?”

Furina: “Hey, the Knave attacked me, why are you the one wounded?”

Lumine: “Isn’t this just a roundabout way of showing your status in his heart? Su Bai’s mouth is like it’s been smeared with honey.”

Yae Miko: “I don’t believe it, unless you let me have a taste.”

Lumine: “???”

Chapter 60: Hydro Archon, why are you crying?

Night had fallen over Teyvat.

In the living room of Su Bai’s house.

Lumine was focused on watching the subsequent plot.

Furina, however, was restless, her eyes constantly stealing glances at Su Bai.

She hadn’t expected that a single lie of hers in her past life would have completely led Su Bai astray.

What did this prove?

It proved that in Su Bai’s heart, he believed everything she said without a shadow of a doubt.

Although most of the chat in the livestream room maintained recognition of Su Bai’s sacrifices and regret for his helplessness,

in Furina’s view, Su Bai should not have to suffer such so-called pity from people.

Because heroes never need people’s pity; they should be revered by people.

“Huu...”

Furina let out a long, deep sigh.

Su Bai, Lumine, and Paimon were startled awake simultaneously and looked at Furina in unison.

“What’s wrong with you?”

Su Bai asked curiously.

“Furina, you suddenly letting out a breath like that really makes people feel strange.”

Lumine wore a “mischievous” smile.

“Don’t tell me your memories haven’t recovered yet, but you’ve already fallen for him?”

“I have not.” Furina pouted, but quickly calmed down.

“I want to clarify something for the people in the livestream room: I am not the Hydro Archon.”

Huh?

The three of them were stunned.

They couldn’t understand Furina’s sudden, strange idea.

“Hey, can you guys stop looking at me so strangely?”

Furina protested, her eyes darting toward Su Bai.

“I just can’t stand those people in the livestream room pitying Su Bai for his failure.”

“His idea wasn’t a failure. He wanted to completely cleanse the Primordial Sea Water; that is the best solution to prevent the people of Fontaine from dissolving.”

“Because no one knows the truth and everyone still thinks I have a way, I feel this is unfair to Su Bai.”

So that was it.

Lumine and Paimon exchanged glances.

They were among the few who knew the inside story.

The reason the people of Fontaine were not dissolved by the Primordial Sea Water was entirely because Neuvillette had used his authority to absolve the people of Fontaine of their sins.

Only then did the people of Fontaine shed their status as mimic humans created by Oceanids.

According to the current development of the past life,

Su Bai did not have the ability to change the reality that the people of Fontaine were transformed from Oceanids.

But, while no one else knew the truth, he had come up with a second plan to prevent Fontaine from dissolving.

That was to rely on the All-Devouring Narwhal to absorb all the Primordial Sea Water.

Then he would go to seal and eliminate the All-Devouring Narwhal.

Since he couldn’t change the Oceanid identity of the people of Fontaine, Su Bai intended to solve the Primordial Sea Water on Teyvat.

As long as there was no Primordial Sea Water on Teyvat, the people of Fontaine would not dissolve.

“If you tell everyone in the livestream room now that you aren’t the Hydro Archon, aren’t you afraid they’ll laugh at you?”

“What’s there to be afraid of?” Furina suddenly stood up.

She haughtily placed her hands on her waist: “I’ve already been to the trial court and been judged in public.”

“Isn’t it just clarifying my identity in a livestream room?”

“There’s nothing shameful about it.”

Lumine looked at Paimon and Su Bai.

Su Bai pretended not to notice Lumine’s gaze and looked elsewhere.

“Your memories of your past life haven’t even recovered yet, and you’ve already started defending Su Bai’s image?”

Lumine laughed: “Just as you said, as long as you publicly admit your identity as a fake Hydro Archon, Su Bai’s plan will be the best way to save Fontaine so far.”

“His image will immediately become tall and great again, even more so than before.”

“Tsk tsk tsk, Paimon, look at her. Furina hasn’t even entered the door yet, and she’s already started defending Su Bai.”

“If she does enter the door, won’t she beat me up if I say one bad thing about Su Bai in the future?”

Paimon scratched her head awkwardly: “Umm... this...”

“I can’t help it either, Lumine.”

“If you have to say something, Su Bai is a good person, why do you have to argue with him?”

“But I think Furina’s determination like this is really impressive.”

“Fine.” Lumine laughed: “If you get gossiped about later, don’t come crying to me.”

Livestream room.

Furina: “Ahem, actually, I have a huge secret I want to tell everyone.”

Neuvillette: “.....”

Kaeya: “What huge secret?”

Venti: “A new story again?”

Yae Miko: “What is it? Did you bump into a little secret between Su Bai and Lumine?”

Lumine: “Fox, can’t you have something serious in your head?”

Raiden Ei: “Is it about the power you accumulated in the Oratrice Mecanique d'Analyse Cardinale? That power must be very strong, right?”

Furina: “Mmhmm... I definitely don’t know if the power is strong or not, after all, I’m a fake Hydro Archon.”

Arataki Itto: “Huh? You’re really not the Hydro Archon?”
