Chapter 427

Finally, we're getting out of this dark seabed!

It, the Vortex Demon God, will appear again above Teyvat!

Accompanied by Aesir's excitement, powerful ripples surged up from the deep seabed.

For a moment, the seawater near Guxun Pavilion churned violently,

raising massive waves.

A sense of storm brewing hung in the air.

Liyue.

On a certain street, Seeing Zhongli was strolling leisurely when he suddenly furrowed his brow.

Then his gaze turned toward the direction of Guxun Pavilion.

"Has the seal there weakened?"

Seeing Zhongli's eyes revealed a hint of confusion.

Because Aesir was sealed by his own hands.

So when the seal weakened, he sensed it immediately.

Was it the Fatui's doing?

But the Immortal Summoning Ritual hasn't begun yet, and his plan hasn't progressed.

"Could it be related to Master Han's shop?"

A sudden thought flashed through Seeing Zhongli's mind.

Because that manga shop had only appeared today,

and Aesir's seal loosened this afternoon.

It was hard for Seeing Zhongli not to connect the two.

Perhaps someone obtained a reward, causing this situation.

After all, in his view, Master Han's manga shop truly possessed such miraculous abilities.

"It seems Lady Ningguang's concerns have finally come true."

Seeing Zhongli's lips curled into a faint smile, then his eyes flickered with thought.

"From its aura, Aesir should break free within one or two days, likely after the Immortal Summoning Ritual.

Though this alters the plan slightly, it's still largely under control.

It's also a test for Liyue."

Let's see whether the people of Liyue are ready to enter the next era after the gods depart.

But since there's a slight anomaly, Seeing Zhongli will pay full attention to this matter.

With him as backup, the Vortex Demon God won't stir up any waves.

He could before!

He still can now!

This is the confidence of the Emperor.

……

Jieyou Bookshop.

At this moment, the shop still buzzed with lively energy.

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun had just finished reading the manga.

Closing it, she wore an expression of deep reflection.

"Who would've thought that after so many years of wandering as a hermit, I'd still see such an interesting manga."

The protagonist was merely a tiny Shi Laimu,

yet ultimately grew into a great demon lord.

The hardships and obstacles within moved Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun deeply.

It seemed to remind her of the days when she fought alongside the Emperor.

"If Master likes it, come often from now on."

Seeing Ganyu smiled beside her.

Experiencing more of mortal life is better than staying secluded in the mountains.

"This is precisely what this Jun intends. From now on, you may accompany this Jun more often."

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun nodded, "Come, let's go to the counter and see what reward we might get."

She had already heard from Seeing Ganyu that her reward was the Clone Technique.

Now she was using a clone to work.

The body staying with her was her original.

Upon learning this, Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun couldn't help but sigh.

Master Han's shop rewards are truly miraculous.

"I've finished too. Let's go together."

Ping Laolao smiled.

Then the group walked over to the counter.

"Is this the owner of this miraculous manga shop?"

Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun and Ping Laolao both began to scrutinize him.

Ever since learning of the shop's wonders, they had been curious.

Since learning of the manga shop's wonders, they had also been curious.

Who could possibly run a comic shop like this?

Previously, my attention was on the comics; now I can finally see the person himself.

"He looks like an ordinary man, but this monarch always feels he's impossible to fathom."

Thus thought the True Lord of Leaving Clouds and Borrowing Wind.

It seemed that many mysteries hid behind him.

Yet, considering the miraculous nature of this comic shop, it seemed quite normal.

Granny Ping held the same view.

"Boss Han, what rewards did my Master and Granny Ping receive?"

Seeing Ganyu stepped forward to ask.

Han Feng looked toward the system upon hearing this.

The information had just refreshed.

【Customer Granny Ping finished reading "Mr. Zombie," and received a reward—Peach Wood Sword.】

【Peach Wood Sword: A Taoist talisman, traditionally believed to ward off evil, attract fortune, protect the home, and summon wealth.】

…

【Customer True Lord of Leaving Clouds and Borrowing Wind finished reading "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime," and received a reward—Slime Seven-Day Trial Card.】

【Slime Seven-Day Trial Card: After use, the user will transform into a Slime form and automatically revert to their original form after seven days.】

【Note: Using this card does not affect the user's original power level.】

"The Peach Wood Sword is normal enough, but this Slime trial card is ridiculous."

Han Feng stared at the reward, his expression odd.

Recall that earlier, Dai Yin had received a Role-Playing Card.

One of the roles he could assume was a Slime.

But since that form was unsuitable for moving among humans,

he had instead taken on a beautiful girl's form.

Now, another Slime trial card had appeared.

And it was for seven days!

Only after seven days could he return to normal.

"So is the True Lord of Leaving Clouds and Borrowing Wind about to turn from a crane into a Slime?"

Imagining that scene, Han Feng found it highly amusing.
