Chapter 453

Its heart was filled with fear, and the motion of unsealing halted.

Afraid of being killed by this sword intent.

"Luckily it was just passing by…"

Only after the sword intent had passed for a long time did Othel sigh in relief.

It decided to unseal the seal tomorrow instead.

Otherwise, if it got noticed, it would have no way to complain.

With freedom so close, Othel did not want any more accidents.

Inazuma.

Tenshukaku.

The Thundering General, who had been meditating with closed eyes, suddenly opened them.

"This sharp, murderous aura…"

Feeling this sword intent, the Thundering General's face darkened with solemnity.

Hard to imagine such an expression on her face, unchanged for ten thousand years!

"Seems to come from Liyue? Is it the Rock King, Emperor?"

The Thundering General speculated in her mind.

But she quickly discarded this thought.

This sword intent was more terrifying than her Unthinking Slash—impossible for the Rock King Emperor to produce.

"Forget it. As long as it doesn't disturb Inazuma's eternity, no need to care."

The Thundering General closed her eyes again.

Yet a faint tremor stirred within her heart.

Ling Long: ②⑦⑨⑨⑤⑤⑥③⑦

Only eternity draws closest to the Heavenly Principle.

But what if something stronger than the Heavenly Principle exists?

Then what should she worship?

As the sword intent swept wildly across the entire continent, the gods of other nations in Teyvat were stunned.

Each one wondered in alarm.

Even finally,

The presence atop the Sky Island cast a gaze of attention downward.

…

Jieyou Bookshop.

Watching Noelle tremble violently under the sword intent, Han Feng shook his head.

"It's time to end this!"

Then he waved his hand, and the four ancient swords vanished from the manga shop.

If he didn't recall them soon, they might draw too much attention.

He didn't yet know that this sword intent had already attracted many people's notice.

But even if he knew, Han Feng wasn't afraid.

He only feared trouble—not those enemies.

As the ancient swords were recalled, everyone across the Teyvat continent breathed a sigh of relief.

If it had lasted a moment longer, many would have been unable to endure.

"Boss, your reward is too terrifying!"

At that moment, Noelle, panting, walked up to the counter.

Inside the manga shop, protected by Han Feng, she was naturally unaffected much.

But at such close range, she still felt the terrifying might of the swords.

Without the boss protecting her, Noelle didn't know what state she'd be in.

"Prepare dinner."

Han Feng smiled without offering further explanation.

The Immortal-Slaying Formation—better to keep it a little mysterious.

"Yes, Boss!"

Noelle didn't ask further.

Yet after witnessing this terrifying might, she grew even more reverent toward Boss Han.

Indeed, the boss was the most powerful person!

Working here as a maid,

Was undoubtedly the wisest decision of her life!

Just then,

A pink door appeared inside the manga shop.

Han Feng and Noelle had both seen this phenomenon many times before.

So they weren't overly surprised.

Soon, Yingmei and Paimon stepped out.

"Boss, we're back!"

Little Paimon rushed forward excitedly.

"The moment it's mealtime, you're back — were you timing it?"

Han Feng smiled and rubbed Paimon's little cheeks.

"No, it's because just now we sensed an overwhelming aura of might.

We were a little worried, so we hurried back.

After all, Boss Han's place is the safest spot here!"

Paimon explained in her defense.

Of course, wanting to eat was also part of it.

But she would never say that out loud.

"That's right, Boss Han — that sudden burst of might earlier was terrifying, Paimon was so scared she threw herself into my arms."

Lumine teased Paimon about her embarrassing moment.

Usually it was Lumine who got teased by Paimon,

but now the tables had finally turned on her.

"Nonsense, I… I did not!"

Paimon said with her hands on her hips.

·

Though her tone wasn't entirely firm.

But she would never admit to such a spineless scene.

Lumine smiled and said no more.

However, deep down, she and Paimon shared the same thought.

Boss Han's place is the safest spot in the whole world!

"Lumine, Paimon, you probably don't know — that sword intent just now was actually unleashed by the boss."

Noelle said with a smile as she prepared dinner.

"What?! It was actually Boss Han?!"

Hearing this truth, Lumine's face was full of shock.

Although she knew Boss Han was very powerful, she hadn't expected him to be this strong!

That aura of might just now was something even she at her peak couldn't withstand!

Paimon's reaction was even more exaggerated.

She hugged Han Feng's thigh right away.
