Chapter 226 The Woman in Green Is Not the Savior
Belial nodded and smiled, "There is a lack of research materials here. I want to go out and find some suitable experimental materials."
"Of course, I also want to see the beautiful Liyue you described. After all, watching the water curtain here all day feels like spying on your private life..."
Before Belial could finish speaking, Xu Ning angrily confronted Qingyi.
"So it's absolutely reasonable for me to guard against you, knowing you can see it, but you're just going too far by showing porn here all day long!"
The woman in blue said slowly, "I finally got used to wandering around outside when I was in Mondstadt, but then you came back here, and I can't keep showing my face all the time. This is my only pleasure."
Xu Ning roared, "Didn't I tell you not to go out? It's you who's afraid to go out and face people. Who on the streets of Liyue knows who you are!"
After yelling at the man in blue, Xu Ning said to Belial in a gentle tone, "I've wanted to take you out for a long time, but this Corruption Sword itself is extremely risky. If possible, I think it would be better if you left it in the cave."
Belial patted the sword case on his shoulder and said sincerely, "I actually went out this time to test the sword, but don't worry, I can completely control the putrid poison on this sword."
"Moreover, although I used to rely on the Corruption Sword to draw life force from Durin to survive, now that I have your wine, I can completely break free from my dependence on the Corruption Sword and use it as a weapon, which can help you in many ways."
"As for your concern about the spread of the putrefactive poison..."
Belial glanced at the woman in blue with amusement and said to Xu Ning, "...I've made a big discovery. Do you remember when you told Zhiyi that your wine could alleviate or neutralize the poison of decay?"
Xu Ning nodded and said, "I was just speculating at the time. One of them relies on absorbing life force, while the other contains powerful life force. They should be able to neutralize each other."
Belial nodded and said, "I've already tested it. The biggest nemesis of this putrefactive poison, which is best at devouring life force, is... your wine!"
Xu Ning and Ning Guang were both incredulous when they heard this.
Ningguang asked, "You mean that as long as we have this kind of wine, the poisonous fire that flowed out of the abyss back then can be completely eliminated?"
Belial glanced at the man in blue standing not far away, who looked completely unconcerned, and nodded, saying, "That's true."
Xu Ning pointed at Qingyi with exasperation and said, "Wow, do you know that you almost became a savior revered by thousands back then? Because of your cowardice, how many innocent civilians died in Teyvat?"
The woman in green rolled her eyes, spread her little hands, and said carelessly, "What does it have to do with me? If I hadn't been a coward back then, I wouldn't have survived to the time you mentioned when the abyss attacked. I would have been reduced to ashes in the war between the demon gods."
"Besides, I've never had any ambition to be a savior. Back then, I just wanted to be with the handsome emperor for a thousand or ten thousand years, but fate played a trick on me, and I ended up in this situation. Now I'm giving you all my wine. If you want to be a savior, go ahead and do it yourself. Don't drag me into it."
Xu Ning pointed at the woman in blue, flipping her finger back and forth, and said in a friendly manner, "I've realized it's a good thing you didn't go out. I'm actually afraid that if someone found out who you are, they'd beat you to death in the street."
Ignoring the cowardly god, Xu Ning picked up a golden flower from the table and handed it to Ningguang.
"Take this and sense it. Do you feel any increase in strength?"
Ningguang took the "Flower of Pantuo's Split Life" with some doubt and asked, "Isn't this a sacred relic that contains the aura and will of our predecessors? I just heard Qingyi shouting about some five-star achievement. This kind of thing is good for collecting, but can it really make people stronger?"
Although Xu Ning already knew that the native inhabitants of Teyvat did not wear artifacts, he still wanted to try this object, which might contain the aura of the Geo Archon, to see if it could further enhance Ningguang's strength.
However, it seems that I still have to wear it myself.
Xu Ning took the golden flower from Ningguang's hand and casually summoned the panel to replace the "Martial Artist" relics on his body one by one.
Finally, when he switched to the "Starry Night Sundial," Xu Ning looked at it in his hand and found that there was no shadow needle on it.
"Perhaps it's because there's no sunrise or sunset in the cave that it doesn't show up! I'll try again after I go out. If the shadow needle shows up, then I'll have another pocket watch."
Ningguang and Belial watched as Xu Ning, as if performing magic, continuously transformed the golden artifact in his hand into a set of red artifacts.
Then the red relics disappeared one by one from his fingertips.
Belial looked at the last remaining "Warrior's Water Leak" on the table and picked it up before Xu Ning could make it disappear.
Then a small opening slowly appeared on my wrist, and I stuffed the drainer inside.
Under the slightly frightened gazes of Xu Ning and Ning Guang, it carefully sensed for a while, then took it out and handed it to Xu Ning.
"Don't even mention wearing it, even if it were inside your body, I wouldn't feel any change. But how did you do it? I could feel your life force suddenly surge a lot just now."
Xu Ning didn't know how to explain it either, so he incorporated the water leak as a consumable material into the Rock Set.
Then he smiled wryly and said, "I guess it's a characteristic of my body. Um, don't stare at me with that obviously inquisitive look. You really need to get rid of these bad habits of Abedo."
"And that kind of behavior, never do it in front of others after you go out. It's too terrifying. People with weak mental fortitude will be scared to death."
Belial agreed to all of them.
With this matter settled, Xu Ning led Belial and Ningguang out of the Hidden Cavern, preparing to return to Liyue Harbor via the teleportation point on the cliff.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they flew down from the pavilion, they saw that the area around Qingxupu was densely packed with people coming and going.
Once everyone recognized Xu Ning and Ning Guang, they all cheered loudly.
"Found it, found it..."
Xu Ning and Ning Guang thought for a moment and then realized what had happened.
It must be because the two of them have been out for too long and no information has been sent back that Liyue sent so many people here to search for them.
Xu Ning and Ning Guang exchanged a smile, both feeling a surge of warmth in their hearts.
Ningguang stepped forward to comfort everyone, telling them to return to Liyue Harbor to collect their rewards. The three of them then returned directly to Yujingtai via the teleportation anchor point.
The Liyue adventurers who had come to search for the missing person after receiving their missions all discussed it with envy as they saw that Xu Ning had gained another stunning white-haired beauty by his side.
"Tsk tsk, do you see that person? I don't think I've seen him in Liyue before, and he looks a bit like he's from Mondstadt. I guess Xu Ning met him when he was traveling in Mondstadt. No wonder Lord Tianquan came along."
“I think what you said makes a lot of sense, but doesn’t our Lord Xu Ning seem to have a bit of a preference for white hair? Look at Lord Ningguang, and then look at this one…”
"Shh, have you forgotten about Big Sister Beidou? She was Lord Xu Ning's darling back then. If she were to return, tsk tsk, I don't even want to think about what kind of scene it would be!"
"What kind of scene? It must be a grand scene!"
Unaware of what others were saying behind their backs, Xu Ning and his companions had just emerged from the teleportation point and entered the archway of Yujing Terrace when they immediately spotted the Emperor standing by the lotus pond, watching the fish.
