Chapter 90

Jialiang, who had originally been feeling intense pain, suddenly felt a cool stream of energy circulating within his body. In an instant, it felt so good he almost cried out.

"Is this... Vitality?"

Watching Jialiang’s state, Lin Mo took a silent breath.

He knew full well that Jialiang had been suffering immensely, tortured by the remnants of an Archon.

But as his own Vitality emerged, it completely suppressed the damage caused by those Archon remnants.

Although it couldn't expel or purify them, it could suppress them.

Furthermore, for a short time, it could shield Jialiang from the influence of the Archon remnants.

This meant that if anyone else were to be affected, infiltrated, or polluted by Archon remnants in the future, he could use this ability to suppress it entirely.

While he couldn't expel them in the short term, constant suppression was effectively the same as clearing them out!

Because once Vitality was applied, while the victim still suffered damage, a significant portion of their injuries would be instantly recovered.

Lin Mo guessed that this was likely because the Archon remnants were very weak.

If it were the pure power of an Archon, the effect might not be as obvious, but for these remnants, the results were clear.

At the very least, through this experiment, Lin Mo could determine that Jialiang would be free from the agony of the Archon remnants for a short time.

While the Archon remnants were damaging the body, the Vitality would heal more than half of it, directly countering the remnants.

Jialiang, who had previously been tortured by the Archon remnants, regained most of his spirit in this moment.

If he were to cast it again, it didn't seem like the effects would stack.

Nevertheless, through this test, Lin Mo learned of the power of Vitality.

If one were to suffer from the dark pollution deep within the Chasm, this Vitality could certainly act as a passive defense.

Using Vitality while injured versus using it while uninjured—the effects were two completely different things!

Thinking this, Lin Mo left immediately.

Since he had already understood the effects of Vitality, there was no need to linger here.

He wondered if Yelan was waiting for him.

As Lin Mo departed, Qiqi stood there, dazed. She looked at Jialiang’s rosy complexion, her eyes filled with hesitation and confusion: "It... it's gone?"

That person just touched him, and now he doesn't seem to be in pain anymore.

"I... I feel so healthy!"

At this moment, Jialiang felt his body and couldn't sense much pain. He was pleasantly surprised and incredibly excited.

He suddenly discovered that he had regained his mobility!

Moreover, the pain he had been enduring just moments ago had mostly vanished.

Although his body still ached a little, compared to before, he had fully recovered his ability to move.

He could speak and walk again.

Before, because of the pain, he couldn't even speak; it had been an exhausting struggle.

Subconsciously, Jialiang hurriedly looked for Lin Mo.

When Lin Mo had come over earlier, he had vaguely seen a Millelith soldier, but his vision had been blurry and his consciousness fading.

His recovery had everything to do with that Millelith soldier.

However, when Jialiang looked, he found that Lin Mo’s figure was already gone, and he was stunned.

Where did he go?

"Um, who saved me?"

Jialiang hurriedly spoke, looking at Qiqi to ask: "Did Master Baizhu return?"

"Master Baizhu... has not returned."

Qiqi shook her head gently: "It was that person just now, the big brother."

Hearing Qiqi’s words, Jialiang scratched his head; asking this little girl seemed to be the wrong approach.

"I... I feel better. I can leave now."

The next second, Jialiang felt his body and said hurriedly: "I need to go find someone."

"No, you must stay."

Hearing Jialiang’s words, Qiqi shook her head gently: "Master Baizhu will be back soon. You need to wait for Master Baizhu to help you check your body. If you faint outside again, that... that would be even worse."

Hearing Qiqi’s words, Jialiang, who had just been about to leave, froze.

That’s right, a pharmacist had already gone to find Master Baizhu.

What if he returned and couldn't find him?

Master Baizhu had been treating him, and it wouldn't be right to make him run another trip.

"Then... then I'll wait."

Jialiang said softly.

He didn't want Master Baizhu to return and not find him.

As Jialiang spoke softly, Qiqi took the initiative to run to the side to pour him some water.

At this very moment.

Elsewhere.

Lin Mo, having already left with the medicine, had just stepped out of Yujing Terrace when he saw Yelan.

"What a coincidence."

Seeing Lin Mo, Yelan’s eyes brightened slightly: "I was just about to go find you."

"I didn't expect to see you here either."

Lin Mo nodded upon seeing Yelan: "I was just about to head back."

"In that case, let’s leave Liyue Harbor and head straight to the Chasm; there’s no need to go back."

Yelan smiled and said: "The Ministry of Civil Affairs has already been notified, and someone will inform the Yunlai Sea station. We’ll set off in a moment. If we leave for the Chasm now, we’ll arrive by tomorrow morning."

"Alright."

Hearing Yelan, Lin Mo nodded.

Since he had run into Yelan, it was the perfect time to depart.

"But before that, we must have dinner."

Yelan chuckled: "Let’s go, to Wanmin Restaurant. My treat. Once we get to the Chasm, you won't be able to enjoy a dinner like this for a while, so you’d better be prepared."

"Hmm."

Hearing Yelan, Lin Mo nodded: "I know a little bit about the Chasm."

Liyue Harbor was the most prosperous city; the Chasm was just a mining area, so how could the food and lodging there compare to Liyue Harbor?

Immediately, Yelan and Lin Mo headed toward Wanmin Restaurant.

"A strange Vision holder, Hydro elemental power."

As Yelan and Lin Mo left the area and headed toward Yujing Terrace.

In a three-story building, Childe watched the departing Lin Mo and Yelan with a slightly pale face.

The reason he had come here was that he had arranged for someone to fetch medicine from Bubu Pharmacy.

Although Lin Mo hadn't attacked him many times, every strike had left him injured.

He realized that he was absolutely no match for that person.

Originally, he had thought the other party’s sword-controlling technique wasn't much—that while powerful, the fact that the user had to stand still meant it had major flaws.

He had assumed it was just the sword-controlling technique that was miraculous, along with superb swordsmanship.

As it turned out, the sword-controlling technique the other party displayed didn't require him to do anything at all; it simply suppressed him, leaving him feeling stifled and incredibly frustrated in battle.

Although he couldn't resist at the time, he had noticed one key point!

That was that the other party’s physique didn't seem all that great; it couldn't keep up.

So, after a brief test, he had decisively left.

Although he was shocked by the sword-controlling technique and felt he wasn't the other party’s match, he believed that if he unleashed the power of his Hydro Vision, he could capture the leader first and crush them with Hydro power.

Yet, he hadn't expected that the next day, besides displaying terrifying swordsmanship, the other party would also show terrifying speed!

That ghostly speed was even more bizarre than that of a Anemo Vision holder channeling Anemo power!

And with a single strike, there was a terrifying power he couldn't even describe.

That power made Childe feel a speed he had never experienced before.
