Chapter 305

"There is no movement yet, especially from the Fatui; they have withdrawn from the outskirts of Liyue. It seems what you did in Mondstadt dealt them a heavy blow.

Now, there is absolutely no news of them.

As for the Abyss...

Some did come to probe us.

However, the moment they entered Liyue Harbor,

the Xuan Yuan Sword would unleash its sword qi and kill them instantly... After you left, the creations of the Abyss attempted this three times!"

Liyue is now as impregnable as a fortress.

The Adepti and mortals are getting along even more harmoniously.

Meanwhile, the underwater mines have gradually begun operations, producing vast quantities of ore at a rate of hundreds of tons daily.

It can be said that it now rivals the Chasm.

Su Han nodded and said, "That is good... I was still worried that after I left, the Abyss would come to cause trouble..."

"Even if they want to, they must have the strength! In the Guyun Stone Forest area, I have arranged three thousand Black Blade Warriors to guard it, with hidden sentries posted everywhere; no one can break through all defenses to enter.

As long as nothing happens at Guyun Stone Forest,

there is actually no need to worry about Liyue's problems.

I feel that as long as the Xuan Yuan Sword is here, any existence below the level of an Archon simply cannot withstand that slash..."

On that day, golden light flashed.

Sword qi surged.

Three Abyss Mages, disguised as commoners,

were killed in a single strike.

To this day, people still tell stories that the Rex Lapis was angry.

The intensity of worship increased directly by tenfold!

The two chatted for a long time.

Later, Jean also came over.

They were all there to discuss the upcoming festival.

This year's event in Inazuma is:

The Sweetheart Festival.

Chefs from three nations will participate together; on that day, all dessert ingredients will be supplied by Inazuma, and the shop that wins first place

will receive a reward from the Raiden Shogun.

A high-end shop within the city of Inazuma.

Tax exemption is impossible.

After all, Inazuma needs to live, but this particular shop comes at a steep price.

It costs at least five million Mora.

After all, it is the best location.

Jean smiled at Su Han: "I have already notified them via Teleportation Beetle, and the reaction has been very intense; for example... quite a few people from Springvale are coming to participate.

People from the Cat's Tail Tavern are also coming to sell alcohol...

This time, it will truly be lively."

"Of course, after all, tickets for this event are free, and... one can taste delicacies from various nations. Who wouldn't want to come..."

Train tickets to Inazuma.

Within one week,

they are all free.

As long as you wish to go to Inazuma,

you can obtain them.

Of course, each person gets only one round-trip opportunity.

If you want to travel back and forth again, you must pay to purchase tickets.

Of course, the tickets themselves are free.

Accommodation and food,

naturally, are not free!

Otherwise, Su Han would lose his shirt!

Ningguang smiled and said, "It's a pity that large amusement facilities cannot be built on Yashiori Island; otherwise... we could make even more money this time!"

"Not necessarily... We can use the pearls from Yashiori Island as merchandise for the Sweetheart Festival, and... blessings for couples can also be performed there!

Money is something that is best earned from couples.

That is where the real value lies..."

Ask yourself whose money is easiest to earn.

Naturally, it is women and children.

And then there are couples!

Just attach the label of happiness.

The tag of blessing.

Then, basically, it will sell like hotcakes.

For this Sweetheart Festival,

Su Han must make a fortune!

The discussion concluded.

Jean had originally intended to spend a moment of intimacy with Su Han before leaving, but seeing Ningguang refuse to depart,

she could only give up the idea.

Both understood their relationship perfectly well.

Ningguang did not wish to leave.

That certainly meant there were private matters to attend to.

When only the two of them remained on the upper floor of the pavilion,

Su Han gently embraced Ningguang in his arms, murmuring softly, "You have truly suffered..."

"Such is fate..."

Hearing her lover's words,

Ningguang could not help but sigh lightly.

She was the first to fall in love with Su Han, yet due to her proud nature,

coupled with her discomfort,

she believed that emotions also required a game of strategy.

But in reality, emotions do not need such things.

As a result, she was surpassed by countless others, and now she regretted it in her heart.

Yet beside Su Han stood the Raiden Shogun.

That was an existence whose status surpassed hers by countless layers.

Indeed, even Ningguang felt despair and regret.

If only she had summoned the courage sooner.

She would not have reached this point today.

The two held each other gently.

Su Han then said, "You need not fear, nor worry... the Raiden Shogun is not a terrifying person; she is merely bad at expressing herself. If you treat her well,

she will treat you well in return."

"Really?"

"Otherwise, do you think she wouldn't sense you embracing me?"

Hearing Su Han's teasing words,

Ningguang finally realized the truth.

The power of a god

transcended her imagination.

Forget about the Tenshukaku.

As long as one is within Inazuma, if the other party wishes to know what happened where,

they would likely perceive it in an instant (Li Dezhao).

Now she permits the two of them to be intimate.

It is clearly a sign that she will not interfere.

She lets them enjoy their love freely.

This is not because the Raiden Shogun is magnanimous.

Rather, she believes that as long as one follows Su Han, life becomes eternal.

Why strive only for the present moment?

As long as he is happy; so-called jealousy stems from fearing one's partner will be snatched away by others.

Would Su Han do such a thing?

Obviously not.

Because she is a god; this identity alone allows her to crush all women.

Moreover, in the eyes of the Raiden Shogun, she even views Ningguang and others as beings like Kujou Sara.

They possess strength.

They possess wit.

Yet they still cannot earn her equal treatment!

To gain the Raiden Shogun's recognition,

you must elevate your strength to the level of an Archon.

Only then will she choose to respect you.

After Ningguang realized this, her expression was a mix of helplessness and amusement.

"I don't know how this peach blossom spirit managed it, making the mighty Lei Shen so obedient... Never mind, I won't stay."

"I shall head to Mt. Yougou instead."

"Our agreement remains valid."

"Once the festival concludes, come find me at the summit... The Rainbow Skirt Dance, I have kept it reserved just for you..."

"Agreed!"

The two shared a gentle kiss.

Subsequently, Ningguang departed from the Tenshukaku.

The next day.

The people of Liyue and Inazuma learned that Inazuma was hosting a super-large-scale festival.

One and all began to look forward to it.
