Chapter 91

However, Barbara wasn't too worried about this.

She now had the power of two elements, water and ice, more than enough to feed it.

Besides, the wilderness of Mondstadt was vast, and the number of wildflowers and wild fruits was also very large.

There was simply no need to worry.

"Since we're full, let's head back now."

Barbara said to Little Snow.

It was already noon now.

In order to let Little Snow evolve, she had skipped eating entirely and come straight to Whispering Woods.

Now that the evolution was successful, she could also head back to the city for a meal with peace of mind.

And just as she turned around holding Little Snow, she sensed something was wrong.

Seven or eight Hilichurls had surrounded them from the front.

It turned out that Barbara had gone too deep while picking wildflowers and wild fruits earlier, entering the Hilichurls' territory.

"Meow!"

Seeing her master in danger, Little Snow leapt out of her embrace and glared furiously at the enemies ahead.

Its tail instantly puffed up as well, ready for battle.

This was Little Snow's ultimate move.

It could make its fur attack enemies like wire.

But because Little Snow looked too cute on the outside, this attack method didn't look threatening at all.

The Hilichurls' footsteps were gradually closing in, with no sign of stopping.

"Little Snow, don't be nervous, leave everything to me."

Barbara crouched down and gently soothed the furious Little Snow.

She couldn't help feeling a little touched in her heart.

It hadn't been raised for nothing.

Then, she stood up, and her expression began to turn serious.

Although there were quite a few Hilichurls, there were no Hilichurl Brutes among them.

So Barbara wasn't that worried either.

Moreover, she still had the reward she had drawn from Boss Han as her confidence.

On the other side.

Yingmei and Acting Grand Master Jean and the rest had already resolved the Stormterror crisis.

They were now on their way back, and Mondstadt City wasn't far off.

"That's great, the Stormterror crisis is finally resolved."

Yingmei said happily.

After learning the truth behind Stormterror, she also felt deep sympathy for it.

So being able to successfully purify the filth on it made Yingmei very happy inside.

Of course, the most important thing was being able to have the wanted notice lifted.

Otherwise, constantly bearing such a label would make her feel very uneasy.

Little Paimon's mood was also very happy.

In the battle just now, she had captured a lot of wonderful footage.

She'd sort it out slowly once they got back.

"So we should celebrate properly. How about we go to Boss Han's manga shop?"

Venti suggested with a smile.

Dvalin was a friend of many years, and he didn't want the other to suffer.

So being able to smoothly resolve this matter put Venti in a very good mood as well.

In the past, when he was in a good mood, he'd want to drink.

But now that wasn't the case,

the manga in Han Feng's shop held even more appeal for him.

Of course, being able to drink while reading manga would be even better!

"Agreed!"

Yingmei and Paimon both raised their hands in agreement.

"I have no objections either."

Jean said with a smile.

Then the four of them turned their gazes in unison to the last person.

"Is this manga shop really as magical as you all say?"

Diluc pinched his chin, a glint of curiosity in his eyes.

Along the way, he had kept hearing them discussing the manga shop.

Things like how wonderful the manga content was, how exciting the adventure stories were, and so on.

Because they described it so vividly, Diluc had also developed a hint of interest.

He had the urge to read manga.

But when he heard afterward that reading manga could yield rewards,

Diluc's face was instantly full of disbelief.

His family's business was huge, selling well across seven nations.

But he had never heard of anything this outrageous.

For a moment, he suspected these people were trying to fool him.

However, when facing the Anemo Dragon,

the powerful strength displayed by Jean and Yingmei shocked Diluc.

At this, he began to believe their words a little.

"Whether it's true or not, you'll know once you go see for yourself."

Venti said with a smile.

"Right, right, I guarantee you won't want to come back once you go."

Little Paimon also hurriedly nodded.

She absolutely loved the manga in the boss's shop.

If it weren't forbidden, she would have loved to stay there forever.

"Oh right, Boss Han charges 100,000 Mora per manga reading."

Little Paimon gave a reminder.

Otherwise, ending up in that street-performing situation would not be good.

"No worries, I'm not short on that kind of money."

Diluc said with a calm expression.

"Those detestable rich people!"

Paimon wore a sullen face.

She and Yingmei had worked very hard to earn money just to read manga.

And the two people right in front of her—

one didn't need to spend money, the other wasn't short on money.

Thinking of all this, Paimon was very unhappy.

The group chatted as they walked, and soon arrived at Whispering Woods.

"Look over there, isn't someone fighting?"

Little Paimon's eyes were sharp, and she spotted the anomaly at once.

"Fighting? Mondstadt people?"

Captain Jean followed the gaze and looked over.

And at that glance, her expression suddenly tensed up.
