Mu Yang merely glanced at Ying twice.

And he tried his best to let his gaze convey some kind of message.

To pique her interest.

Then he never looked back.

Leaving them only with an unfathomable silhouette.

Honestly, putting on that kind of act was quite exhausting.

The system chattered away nonstop.

"Holy crap, Host, what's going on with you? Why do you look like such a B KING whenever you get into character?"

"You're obviously not like this normally, are you?"

"That sword strike just now was way too cool! Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! How did you come up with that?"

Mu Yang said, "Want to know?"

"Yes!"

Mu Yang said, "Soldier King, Son-in-law, Arrogant CEO Falls in Love with Me. Go watch them, and stop bothering me."

The system actually fell silent this time.

Mu Yang's look.

Left Ying rather puzzled.

"Could he know me?"

But thinking about it, that didn't seem right.

She had been awake for so long.

Most of that time had been spent wandering through the wilderness.

Other than Paimon, she had not spoken to anyone else.

The Blue Planet livestream completely exploded.

Mu Yang and Ying passed each other.

There was something indescribable in that look.

Yet he did not say a word.

He simply walked away.

Xiao Guizi could not take it anymore.

She wanted to control her character and talk to Mu Yang.

Unfortunately, this part was a CG.

Damn, Mu Yang's gaze is killing me, absolutely unreal

Why does Mu Yang look at the protagonist so strangely?

He's totally secretly in love with her! Mom, he's secretly in love with me!

Mu Yang and Ying are locked in, okay? I swallowed the key!

Shipping everything only gives me a balanced diet

Xiao Guizi added a line.

"In that gaze, there were forty percent mockery, thirty percent confusion, twenty percent coldness, and ten percent indifference."

What a classic pie chart

A Liyue CEO chasing his wife in Mondstadt? How could I have a dream like this?

Jean saw everyone return safely.

She left the entrance of the Goethe Hotel and came forward to greet them.

The dark clouds in the sky had already vanished.

Jean knew they had completed their mission.

Her expression improved slightly.

Paimon asked with concern, "Miss Jean, are you all right?"

Jean answered out of habit, "I'm fine."

Amber had just passed by Mu Yang.

She recalled what happened yesterday.

"Acting Grand Master Jean, weren't you really discussing Dragon Slaying just now?"

Ying asked, "Dragon Slaying?"

"Yes."

Then Amber began recounting her encounter with Mu Yang yesterday.

Although there were no visuals as Amber explained things on the spot.

What the players saw was a flashback.

Within the scene.

After Mu Yang and Amber briefly exchanged words.

He revealed his sword.

"Take the money, solve the trouble. Dragon Slaying."

The effects of the Cryo Vision and sword intent.

Combined with that line dripping with old-school posturing.

Instantly made Xiao Guizi swoon over how cool he was.

Hahaha, was the writer who changed this plot an archaeology major or something?

Stormterror: Master, what exactly is your profession?

He really feels like one of those killers from wuxia novels who murder without blinking. So good.

Ruthless and quiet, love it, love it, love it

He kind of has the vibe of a Gu Long protagonist

Don't. Gu Long's protagonists may be invincible, but they usually have some little issue going on. I'm scared.

Damn, I thought he was some sweet little puppy from his character art, but he's actually a little wolfdog

This is a Tibetan Mastiff

"Stop, stop, stop, everyone. How can you compare Mu Yang to a dog?"

Exactly, exactly.

Xiao Guizi continued.

"If he's a dog, then what am I? I'm the one who's his dog!"

The screen filled with question marks, and the chat exploded.

You're unbeatable, Streamer

"Xiao Guizi only plays it real."

Over in Teyvat.

After hearing Amber's description.

Paimon was the first to lose it.

"He said it so casually. Isn't that guy way too arrogant?!"

Ying did not see it that way.

Judging by Mu Yang's performance just now.

He absolutely had the right to be arrogant.

That sword strike had been absurdly fast.

No one could even see when he had made his move.

If he wanted to kill someone.

Even Acting Grand Master Jean might not be able to stop him.

Ying described what she had witnessed near Starfall Lake.

She said she had seen Mu Yang tracking something like a hunter.

"Now it all makes sense. Could he have been tracking Stormterror?!"

Kaeya lowered his head in thought.

"That guy's strength is unfathomable. I tried following him last night, but he spotted me the moment I arrived."

Paimon mocked him, "Could it be that you're just too weak, Kaeya?"

Kaeya smiled.

"The moment you two followed Amber into the city, you were already under my surveillance. Did you notice?"

Ying shook her head. She truly had not noticed.

Kaeya continued, "I instructed the Knights of Favonius to keep a close eye on that little inn and report his every move."

"But from what you've described, he easily evaded the surveillance and went to Starfall Lake to track Stormterror..."

He spread his hands helplessly.

The opponent was too strong. There was simply no way to play this.

Paimon sighed.

"Good thing that guy left. If he had stayed obediently in the city and fought the Anemo Dragon, Mondstadt City would have been doomed!"

Why am I kind of looking forward to it?

Me too, but Lao Mi would never do that. Otherwise, how would the protagonist get through the plot?

The Anemo Dragon is in the sky. How would Mu Yang fight it?

Didn't you see his Lightness Skill? He'd just step on his left foot with his right foot and climb into the sky

Jean agreed with Paimon.

"If they fought in the city, the danger would indeed be too great. Fortunately, the Anemo Archon watched over us, and they did not meet within the city."

Ying still had some doubts about Mu Yang's motives.

"If he only wanted Mora, that seems a little too far-fetched."

Jean said she could not understand it either.

However, since he had said he would only act after Jean paid him.

There was no need to worry for the time being.

They could even treat Mu Yang as their final contingency.

If all else failed, they could have him deal with Stormterror.

Ying asked, "Why do you think he won't secretly act if he says he won't touch Stormterror?"

Jean said, "Regarding that, Mu Yang said he came from Chenyu Vale."

"That place belongs to Liyue, and Liyue is the Nation of Contracts. It places great importance on contracts."

"Perhaps he has some grudge against Stormterror, but out of consideration for Mondstadt, he only symbolically demanded some Mora."

"With a contract in hand, he would no longer have any reservations about taking action."

"Of course, all of that is merely my personal speculation."

Ying learned something new again.

Liyue—the Nation of Contracts.

Jean brought the topic back from Mu Yang.

"Let's set his matters aside for now. Did you gain anything else from this trip?"

Ying said there was something she wanted Jean to examine.

Jean told her to hold on.

There were too many people on the streets.

They could discuss it after returning to the Knights of Favonius.
