Genshin Impact: Dionysus reigns supreme, all demons retreat!

Chapter 242 Young Master, watch me unleash my hidden weapons

Two days passed quickly.

Xu Ning had no idea how far Zhongli and Kong were progressing with the preparations for the Immortal Sending Ceremony, and he genuinely didn't care.

It's no wonder that the Emperor personally organized the farewell ceremony for himself, since everyone in Liyue Harbor is too busy to attend the Emperor's banquet right now.

Because the immortals from Jueyun have come to demand an explanation.

Ningguang had gathered the Seven Stars early on and took most of the elite Thousand Rock Army from Liyue Harbor with her to greet them outside the city.

"Hmph, they say they're going out of the city early to welcome them, but I'm afraid they just want to block the immortals outside the city beforehand, so they don't end up destroying Liyue Harbor if they start fighting!"

"Now almost all the remaining Thousand Rock Army in the city are being used to keep an eye on the movements of our Fools. I guess that Lord Tianquan is also very wary of us. But now that he's only thinking of us, it's probably too late."

"The two companies are already on standby on the ship and can go into attack mode at any time."

The young master listened to his subordinates' summary of information about Liyue Harbor, nodded, and instructed: "Now is the time when a storm is brewing. All personnel in Liyue Harbor must follow the instructions of the Thousand Rock Army and avoid any conspicuous behavior, lest they invite trouble."

"If you perform well on stage, our actions off stage won't be noticed by those with ulterior motives."

The subordinate immediately responded loudly, "Yes, sir."

Xu Ning was lying on the roof ridge, almost asleep.

He has always hated the feeling of waiting, but today's performance was worth the wait.

"who?"

The Thousand Rock Army below shouted, followed by the sound of triggers, and several sharp arrows shot straight towards the pool next to the corridor.

"Oh, it can actually see through my movements? Is there some kind of mechanism on that crossbow bolt?"

With a splash, the young master emerged from the water, raising a pair of water blades in his hands, and swiftly closed in on the back of a Thousand Rock Army soldier.

The young master could almost see the blood about to bloom on the soldier's neck.

Just then, a brass gourd suddenly fell from the sky and hit the young master on the head.

If the young master insists on killing the soldiers, given the wind-breaking power of this copper gourd, I'm afraid the young master's head will be gone in an instant.

"Hehe, I knew you'd be here."

The young master suddenly stopped, then retreated even faster, flipping over and kicking open the door of the Golden House before slipping inside.

This sudden advance and retreat came without warning, causing many crossbowmen on the wall to misjudge their positions and miss their shots, while nearly injuring the two guards holding guns at the entrance.

With a flick of the red string in Xu Ning's hand, the wine gourd bounced back into his palm.

"Mission accomplished. You can all leave now. This place will soon become a battlefield, and I can't protect you all."

The soldiers of Qianyan immediately retreated silently.

Xu Ning flashed into the Golden House and saw the young master rushing towards the dragon statue enshrined at the base of the north wall. He immediately pulled something out of his own cave and shouted, "Release the hidden weapon!"

Suddenly, she threw the object she was carrying at the young master.

The young master wasn't afraid of any hidden weapons, but when he heard a strange sound behind him, he couldn't help but turn around.

Unexpectedly, the hidden weapon thrown by Xu Ning was so terrifying that he dodged to the side, avoiding the weapon.

"Awoooo ...

After letting out a series of screams, Wendy finally collapsed to the ground, tumbling twice before coming to a stop.

"Ouch! Xu Ning, you son of a bitch! How dare you use the great Lord Barbatos as a hidden weapon?"

Xu Ning looked at Wendy, who was getting up from the ground, with annoyance.

"Stop talking nonsense. This guy in front of us is also an executive officer of the Winter Fools. He's in cahoots with that 'lady.' Let's team up and take him down, and get revenge for what happened earlier."

Wendy, looking utterly listless, spread his hands and said, "My God Heart was taken from me last time, and now I have no abilities left. I can't help you!"

"Let me go back quickly! I just woke up and haven't even had my breakfast wine yet!"

Xu Ning sneered, "You want wine without doing any work? You must be dreaming. As the saying goes, you raise an army for a thousand days to use it for one. If you don't join forces with me to take him down today, I guarantee that you won't have a single drop of wine to drink in the entire Liyue."

Wendy was stunned.

His gaze shifted from Xu Ning's resolute face to the eager young master over there, and finally he made up his mind, waving his hand to summon a powerful gust of wind.

"I'm going to complain to your Emperor about you!"

After saying that, he spread his wings of wind and disappeared in an instant, riding on that gust of wind.

Xu Ning was furious upon hearing this. Didn't this just tell Prince Yan that Emperor was still alive?

They're undermining the Emperor and trying to sue me?

The young master glanced regretfully in the direction Wendy had fled and chuckled, "So this place was obviously a trap set to ensnare me?"

Xu Ning raised his hand and took a sip of "Qianyan," instantly pushing his "drunken" state to the fourth level.

Hearing this, he laughed and said, "Of course it's a trap. With such a good opportunity to make the executor of Zhidong die in the golden house where the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma body is stored, I'm afraid even the higher-ups of Zhidong Kingdom wouldn't dare to speak up for you!"

The young master pointed with amusement in the direction Wendy had fled. "But your helpers have all escaped. You don't actually think you can kill me here all by yourself, do you? If so, then the Executor is worthless in your eyes."

Xu Ning was furious whenever he talked about that slacker.

When I was planning to lure that guy out of Mondstadt and bring him with me, I was thinking of having an extra amulet and a secret weapon.

Looking back now, it was a real mistake; all those days of drinks were wasted.

"That kind of useless god is just a helper; my real helper will arrive soon."

As soon as Xu Ning finished speaking, a voice full of surprise came from the doorway.

"Wow—this is the Golden House? It's covered in Mora! Do you think... if there's a little more or less, no one will even notice?"

"Hey, what are you all doing here?"

Sora and Paimon walked in together, and the one who spoke first was naturally the white-haired little money-grubber.

Kong asked the young master in a deep voice, "I didn't expect you to have come here with the intention of obtaining the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Body. But how did you know it would be stored here?"

The young master laughed and said, "Naturally, I guessed it from the process of you preparing the ceremony to send off the immortals."

Kong shook his head and said, "Ever since you made me do so many things, I've been wondering what your purpose is. After thinking about it, there's only one answer: the Heart of God. Since you've already obtained the Heart of the Wind God in Mondstadt, then you've naturally come here to obtain the Heart of the Geo God."

Kong brandished his bladeless sword, declaring, "I will never let that happen again!"

The young master suddenly burst into laughter.

"What a naive lad! He's been sold out several times already, yet he's still so innocent! But I also really hate all that scheming. Since you've drawn your sword, let's enjoy some simple and joyful fighting!"
