Chapter 717

~7 min read 1,239 words

【Candace: Could it be that Greater Lord Rukkhadevata created Lesser Lord Kusanali, not just so she could govern this country in her stead,】

【but also to let Nahida help Greater Lord Rukkhadevata eliminate her own existence?】

【Xiangling: I don't quite understand. We have all seen this through the Teyvat Forum now,】

【and most of the Teyvat people know the ins and outs of the matter.】

【In this situation, it is impossible for the world to forget Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.】

【Alice: No, if it's through the Irminsul, there is a way to make people completely forget a person.】

【Even now, everyone knows about the existence of Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.】

【Nilou: Wh... what?!】

"You are very sharp, Lisa."

"Truly worthy of being someone who can step onto the Path of Erudition."

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata looked at Lisa and nodded with a smile.

"You are right; I created Nahida not just so she could govern this country in my stead after I am gone."

"Similarly, I also need Nahida to completely erase me."

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata said.

"Erase... Greater Lord Rukkhadevata completely?"

"How can this be?"

Collei covered her lips with her hands, her pupils trembling from excessive surprise.

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata turned around, looked at the trunk of the Irminsul, and muttered:

"Just as I said earlier, even if I die, my existence and everything related to me will still be preserved in the Irminsul as memories and knowledge."

"Therefore, my death will not allow Forbidden Knowledge to be eradicated."

"And I myself have no way to eliminate myself, so I need another 'me' to accomplish this."

"Therefore, I plucked the branch of the Irminsul that had not yet been polluted by Forbidden Knowledge to create Nahida as my reincarnation, and left clues for her."

"Only so that she could come here and eradicate the polluted 'me' from the Irminsul."

"In that way, my existence will disappear from everyone's memory."

"People will no longer remember me, and Forbidden Knowledge will also cease to exist."

【Alhaitham: So that's how it is.】

【Candace: In other words, even if we still remember Greater Lord Rukkhadevata now,】

【as long as Lesser Lord Kusanali eliminates Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's existence from the Irminsul, we will forget Greater Lord Rukkhadevata?】

【Alice: That's right. However, I think outsiders like Mr. Luo Feng, Ms. Ruan Mei, and others will not be affected by the Irminsul and forget Greater Lord Rukkhadevata. Of course, the Traveler Lumine is the same.】

【Nilou: Even so, that is too cruel. Greater Lord Rukkhadevata clearly did so much for this country, yet we have to forget her.】

【Wriothesley: Although she is a god of a foreign country, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's determination is admirable.】

【Yae Miko: It's a pity that the citizens of that country are not worth much. At least, the upper echelons of that country are not good things.】

"Originally, the plan should have been like this."

"It's just a pity that the sages of the Akademiya restricted Nahida's learning."

"Making her unable to grow up for a long time and unable to come here."

"Afterward, the appearance of the Teyvat Forum and the appearance of Mr. Luo Feng made the Teyvat continent fall into an incredible vortex."

"This made the possibility of Nahida coming here even more elusive."

Speaking of this, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata sighed deeply.

"But fortunately, the knowledge called 'Path' brought by Mr. Luo Feng is not Forbidden Knowledge that is harmful to the Irminsul."

"And Nahida also went to the universe through Mr. Luo Feng's train and successfully obtained a Path."

"This can be considered a good thing among many bad things."

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata said gently.

However, no matter how gentle Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's expression was,

Tighnari, Collei, and others didn't feel happy seeing her expression; instead, their moods were very heavy.

It was no wonder; after all, their own god was prepared to sacrifice herself, yet they couldn't do anything.

This made everyone feel a very strong sense of frustration in their hearts.

【Navia: Is there no other way to solve the pollution of the Irminsul?】

【Dehya: No matter what, letting Lesser Lord Kusanali eliminate Greater Lord Rukkhadevata is too cruel.】

【Ningguang: Even if Nahida were present, she might not be willing to do so.】

【Alhaitham: Mr. Luo Feng, could there be a better way to solve the problem?】

【Nilou: That's right, Mr. Luo Feng is still here; if it were her, there must be a better way to solve the problem.】

"Lu... Mr. Luo Feng, do you have a better way?"

Collei noticed the discussion in the forum, so she tugged at the corner of Luo Feng's clothes and asked with anticipation.

"A solution, huh..."

Luo Feng touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

"If it were Mr. Luo Feng, perhaps there would indeed be a better way."

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata looked at Luo Feng and said.

Hearing Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's words, Tighnari, Collei, and other Teyvat people looked at Luo Feng with anticipation.

"So sure, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata?"

Luo Feng said.

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata smiled and said in a gentle voice:

"Mr. Luo Feng once said that you possess the ability to purify."

"You can easily clear away any negative effects such as curses and pollution."

"I think you should also have the power to clear away 'me', who is the pollution of the Irminsul."

Collei widened her eyes and said with difficulty:

"Clear Greater Lord Rukkhadevata as pollution? Can this be considered a better way?"

"Of course it can." Greater Lord Rukkhadevata nodded slightly and said:

"If cleared with Mr. Luo Feng's ability, perhaps people won't have to completely forget me."

"Similarly, there would be no need for Nahida, who is my reincarnation, to personally eliminate me."

"After all, for her, this is a quite cruel thing."

As she spoke, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's gaze toward Luo Feng held an extra bit of anticipation.

【Dori: If Mr. Luo Feng's power can do what Greater Lord Rukkhadevata said,】

【this is indeed a better way, although it's not that much better.】

【Kaeya: I always feel that Greater Lord Rukkhadevata is hinting for Mr. Luo Feng to clear her away.】

【Yae Miko: Greater Lord Rukkhadevata has long been prepared to sacrifice herself for Sumeru and for Teyvat; compared to her, what the Akademiya has done is truly unbearable.】

【Nilou: Is there no other better way? The universe is so big, there must be a better way to find.】

【Alhaitham: The universe is indeed big, and there should be methods to solve the current predicament.】

【However, with our vision and ability, it's probably hard to find a suitable method.】

【Faruzan: Indeed, without Mr. Luo Feng, we wouldn't even be able to leave this world.】

"I say, if you have anything you want to say, just say it, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata."

"You don't have to keep staring at me with that kind of look."

Luo Feng looked at Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's expectant expression and shook his head.

"Sorry, Mr. Luo Feng."

"I just didn't know how to open my mouth."

"After all, I don't have anything to repay you with."

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata said.

Luo Feng: "Then don't open your mouth."

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata: "..."

The corner of Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's mouth twitched; she barely managed to maintain her calm expression.

It must be said that even though she had existed for many years, this was the first time she had met someone of Luo Feng's type. ===== CHAPTER 718 =====
