Chapter 97

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata broke off the purest branch and gave birth to the current Lesser Lord Kusanali.

But in order to completely clear the forbidden knowledge in the Irminsul, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata erased herself from the Irminsul.

In this way, everyone in Teyvat will lose any memory of Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.

"Sigh..."

"The truth is always so painful." Focalors lamented.

"In order to protect the Irminsul, in order to protect Sumeru, she finally perished completely, and she didn't even appear in anyone's memory."

The god of Sumeru, in order to protect the people, finally ended up without even the right to be remembered.

What a desolate ending.

"Then, then..." Furina was anxious.

Grabbed Su Bai's arm fiercely.

"Then you must save Greater Lord Rukkhadevata."

Save Greater Lord Rukkhadevata?

Su Bai's thoughts rose.

Things don't seem to be as simple as imagined.

The purpose of the reincarnation system is to build a beautiful image for himself.

If it is just for love, but do things that harm others' lives.

From the perspective of the overall image, it is not a great and bright approach.

Perhaps everyone will think you are very infatuated.

But too selfish.

【The clone replaces Su Bai to act outside as the Fatui General Harbinger.】

【Su Bai himself has returned to Sumeru.】

【Just entering the Sanctuary of Surasthana, a person with a slightly old appearance walked towards him.】

【"Grand Sage, you are back."】

【Azar said respectfully.】

【"Azar, how is the process of the matter, how is the accumulation of canned knowledge recently?"】

【Su Bai sat naturally on the seat that showed the most status in the Sanctuary of Surasthana, while Azar could only stand below his steps to report work.】

【"The operation of the Akasha is normal."】

【"We are still storing useful knowledge by absorbing the dreams of the people at night, but it feels that the amount of fresh knowledge is not very rich."】

【"And even in daily life, through the subconscious absorption of the Akasha, there is not much knowledge."】

【"Grand Sage, look..."】

【Su Bai didn't have any unexpected performance.】

【Sumeru built the Akasha hub equipment through the Dendro Archon's Gnosis.】

【Knowledge in the hub can be transmitted to everyone's mind through the equipment.】

【Conversely, it can also use the Akasha equipment to subtly absorb the consciousness and thoughts of the people wearing the equipment.】

【And the other party cannot detect these small actions.】

【"What about that little girl who can dance the dance of Sabzeruz?"】

【"How is Sumeru's tourism industry recently?"】

【Ah?】

【Azar was stunned.】

【He completely didn't understand what Su Bai wanted to do.】

【Such an important topic communication, he actually cared about Sumeru's tourism situation, this...】

【"Hmph!"】

【Looking at Azar's bewildered look, Su Bai showed disdain.】

【"Azar, you don't understand?"】

【"Completely don't understand." Azar looked unhappy: "Grand Sage, we are talking about knowledge, wisdom..."】

【"And, we are going to do greater things. As the Grand Sage of Sumeru, how can you think of that little girl?"】

【"I remember that red-haired girl who can dance the dance of Sabzeruz is named Nilou." Su Bai didn't care about Azar's unhappiness at all.】

【"Yes, Grand Sage."】

【"But I need to remind you again, I am going to do that great thing with you."】

【"A mere girl, if you like, I will let her come to your room obediently tonight."】

【"But, now we should think about how to store more knowledge."】

【"For the sake of creating a god..."】

Creating a god?

Creating a god?

Sumeru's Azar followed Su Bai and actually wanted to implement the god-creation plan?

This is too shocking.

Venti: "What, they actually want to create a god together?"

Consultant Zhongli: "Is this the reason why Su Bai wants the Gnosis?"

Dottore: "Actually still for the god-creation plan?"

Azar: "Tsk, I thought what could happen, it turned out to be for the god-creation plan."

Alhaitham: "Sigh, this..."

Yae Miko: "Wait, what happened to Su Bai this time, is he polluted, he... he actually wants a girl to dance to serve him..."

Nilou: "Woooo, Mr. Su Bai, how can you treat me like this."

Su Bai: "Stop! What did I do to you."

Collei: "Mr. Su Bai, why do you want to hurt Sumeru, clearly you were so great in Fontaine before."

Su Bai: "....."

Enjou: "It's over, Master Su is numb."

Nahida: "Woooo, why am I so unlucky, I originally thought Mr. Su Bai came to our Sumeru, and I could follow him to be glorious, but in the end, he still wants to create a god?"

Nahida: "Lumine, I'm so pitiful."

Lumine: "That... Nahida... it's not over yet..."

Paimon: "Nahida, be strong."

Scaramouche: "Create a god? Do you still want me to become a god?"

Dottore: "Who are you, why do you say let you become a god?"

Tartaglia: "Hmm, strange guy."

【"Azar."】

【Su Bai looked at Azar indifferently.】

【Disdainfully said: "Is your level limited to this?"】

【"You should know that relying solely on stealing knowledge from the minds of the people of Sumeru, the reserve is very limited."】

【"The reason I asked you to find that Nilou is that I want that girl who can dance the dance of Sabzeruz to use her dance and Sumeru's scenery."】

【"To attract more people from other countries."】

【"Let them all wear our Akasha equipment, the more the better."】

【"Understand?"】

【This...】

【Azar was stunned.】

【Seems, it makes sense.】

【"Every day opening and closing your mouth to talk about wisdom."】

【"Even your brain can't turn, and you dare to talk about wisdom."】

【"I think your brain is going to degenerate."】

【Su Bai looked at Azar like garbage.】

"If you know what to do, then go do it."

"I have other matters to attend to; don't bother me unless it's something important."

Seeing Su Bai depart.

Azar seemed to still be contemplating what Su Bai had just said.

For a moment, he was unable to make any reaction at all.

Azar: "This... this is also called wisdom? Can this also be termed knowledge?"

Furina: "So you can't even figure out something like this? What wisdom do you have? What knowledge do you have?"

Paimon: "I remember Azar saying Nahida brought confusion to their scholars. I thought he was messed up back then."

Lumine: "Scholars don't improve themselves, yet they blame the gods."

Alhaitham: "Azar has grown accustomed to the existence of the Akasha. People like him are too dependent on it, and the ultimate result is the atrophy of the mind."

Nilou: "So, Lord Lesser Lord Kusanali finally shut down the Akasha, because it suppresses people's curiosity, erases the whimsical ideas born in their minds, and is detrimental to the expansion of wisdom."

Nilou: "Also, to add: I was wrong. Mr. Su Bai, it seems you didn't intend to hurt me at all."

Su Bai: "Then how about a Dance of Sabzeruz? (Smirking)"

Nilou: "You're annoying."

Initially, the Akademiya found the newborn Nahida.

They cheered and joyfully welcomed Nahida back to Sumeru.

Nahida was very happy.

She had never seen so many people surrounding her, never seen such a festive ceremony.

Everyone wore a happy smile.

But...

As time passed, Nahida noticed that the way people looked at her had changed.

Because people discovered that her wisdom was no different from a child's...

"I will only say one thing: a god should be an existence far superior to humanity."

"Lesser Lord Kusanali?"

"What can she even do?"

"Comfort the populace? Manage sandstorms? Or make up those fairy tales that are nothing but nonsense?"

"These are all things the Akademiya can do easily. Are we gods too, then?"

"Who can understand our great undertaking!"

"We are going to create an omniscient and omnipotent supreme god."

"A useless god like Lesser Lord Kusanali only deserves to be abandoned."

"....."

Gasp!

Nahida opened her eyes in extreme terror.

She had just had a terrible nightmare.

She dreamed of someone dressed exactly like the Grand Sage of Sumeru, as if taking an oath.

"They..."

"The Akademiya is creating a god?"

"The Grand Sage of Sumeru..."

Wuwuwu...

Nahida's eyes were moist, her heart in extreme pain.

After being imprisoned for five hundred years, is the final outcome to be abandoned?

"Where is this..."

Gazing at the vast, white space.

Nahida was stunned.

"Could it be that I am still in a dream?"

"The dream just now..."

"The dream just now was real."

The voice that suddenly rang out startled Nahida so much that she slumped to the ground.

"Who! Who is speaking?"

..... ... 0

Nahida looked in the direction of the voice and saw a person sitting on a chair.

In front of him was a desk and another empty chair.

"My name is Su Bai."

"I am the consciousness left behind in the depths of your mind by Greater Lord Rukkhadevata."

"I already know everything you saw in your dream just now."

Su Bai! Greater Lord Rukkhadevata?

Nahida didn't know who Su Bai was, but she knew Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.

In the hearts of the people of Sumeru, that was the true god.

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.

"That arrogant Grand Sage just now, the one who claimed he would create a god and abandon you."

"Remember this well: his name is Azar."

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata?

At this moment, the entire Teyvat was bewildered.

Who is Greater Lord Rukkhadevata?

Why was she called the god most recognized in the hearts of the people of Sumeru?

Moreover, the Nahida of the past life was clearly exceptionally excited after hearing Su Bai bring up the name of Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.

Her originally panicked and uneasy expression had softened significantly.

Cyno: "Lesser Lord Kusanali, who is Greater Lord Rukkhadevata?"

Nahida: "I don't know."

Nilou: "Eh?"

Collei: "But Lord Nahida, in your past life, you were clearly very happy and excited when you heard the name Greater Lord Rukkhadevata."

Alhaitham: "What is going on? Could it be that the past life Mr. Su Bai lived in underwent a massive change, creating a huge difference from our present life?"

Tighnari: "I haven't heard of Greater Lord Rukkhadevata either. Has anyone here heard of her?"

Tianquan Ningguang: "No..."

Consultant Zhongli: "Greater Lord Rukkhadevata? Why haven't I heard this name either?"

Venti: "I haven't heard of her either. Who is Greater Lord Rukkhadevata?"

Nahida: "Mr. Su Bai, have you heard of Greater Lord Rukkhadevata?"

Su Bai: "I haven't either."

Lumine: "Sigh, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, never heard of her."

Furina: "Sigh, I really haven't heard of her, but why did Su Bai break into Nahida's consciousness, and he even claimed the Grand Sage was Azar. (Facepalm)"

Focalors: "But the person who said those things was indeed Azar."

Paimon: "It must be that Su Bai controlled Nahida's dream and then threw the blame onto Azar."

Azar: "This..."

Enjou: "Whoa! I have a feeling Master Su wants to kill Azar."

Keqing: "Did you guys not notice what was on Su Bai's desk?"

Hu Tao: "Why does it look like a ruler?"

Cloud Retainer: "Is that a disciplinary rod?"

Ganyu: "Ah, does Mr. Su Bai want to hit Nahida?"

Seeing Shenhe: "It must be."

Nahida: "Eh? I'm going to get beaten too?"
